Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

Chapter 437: So He's Not At All To Blame?



"Director Song, Brother Huang, I need to make a call to our supervisor to assess the damage. The compensation amount is likely to be substantial, and I don't have the authority to make that call,"

Xiao Tang finished speaking and walked aside to start making the call.

"You all think I'm an easy target, don't you!"

The elderly man steeled his heart and lay down on the ground, crying out, "Help! Robbers in this day and age! Do they still let us live! Is this how the rich bully the poor nowadays? I can't live on! I just can't!"

His words quickly drew the attention of onlookers.

After all, an elderly person lying on the ground regardless of his status and crying for justice was something no one could ignore!

"Old man, the ground is so dirty, let's get up and talk!"

"Yeah, we, the people, will oversee this. There definitely won't be any unfairness happening!"

"Old man, your grandson is still watching by the side, don't leave psychological scars on the child!"

Seeing that he had achieved the desired effect, the old man went from lying down to sitting, without dusting himself off, and rubbed his eyes while wailing, "You're all good people! We're just poor folks, we can't afford to mess with those rich men. My grandson just accidentally scratched their car, and they want millions from us! They even framed us for breaking their car! We're wronged!"

"Rest assured, old man, I'm a professional lawyer. If you have to go to court, I will definitely help you for free,"

"Damn, why are these rich guys nowadays all so lacking in kindness! Freaking acting like they're some kind of tyrants!"

"I've already posted this incident online, I really want to see how this will be handled!"

Seeing the crowd getting agitated, Xiao Tang, who had returned from making the call, quickly stood out and shouted, "Everyone! Can you listen to me for a moment? I'm the assessor for this car, I know it inside out. I am willing to take legal responsibility for my words!"

"You're just in cahoots with the rich!"

"Get lost! What a rat! Looking at your sneaky face, you're not a good person!"

"If you don't scram, I'm going to start throwing punches!"

"I hope everyone can calm down!"

Xiao Tang shouted loudly, "I have here the car's original delivery slip, you can all check it!"

At these words, the voices around him gradually quieted down.

"Hello, I'm a lawyer, may I take a look at that?"

"Please do!"

Xiao Tang handed over the documents to the other party, then shouted to the crowd, "This car was custom-ordered directly from our company headquarters, costing a total of thirty-seven million one hundred and thirteen thousand! It's all recorded on the slip, including the customs duty paid, everything's legal!"

"Everyone, please follow me and look this way!"

Xiao Tang pointed at the car's scratch and said, "The paint on this car was hand-mixed by our top designer. With such a large area scratched, we can only send it back to the headquarters for replacement! I can tell you that the to-and-fro cost is roughly two million-plus!"

"Also, everyone, look here. What's the most iconic feature of a Rolls-Royce? Of course, the Spirit of Ecstasy! But the Spirit of Ecstasy on this car has been maliciously broken off! This will cause damage to the lifting system, and it needs to be reinstalled!"

"And this Spirit of Ecstasy is made entirely of gold! Based on today's gold prices, it's about six hundred thousand!"

Hearing Xiao Tang's words, the crowd buzzed with discussion.

"Damn, that expensive! Is this thing made of gold? Wait... damn, it actually is gold!"

"Geez! Such a big scratch, not to mention a Rolls-Royce, even my Benz would hurt!"

"Lawyer, is this compensation accurate?"

The lawyer pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said helplessly, "It's basically true. The only thing is the assessed price, which might fluctuate by tens of thousands, making no significant difference."

"Ah? So you're saying... this old lady knows she can't afford to pay, so she's just playing dirty tricks?"

A bystander said blankly.

"Damn it! I actually got used as a pawn today!"

"Whose fault is it? Not looking after her grandkid properly, and now when trouble arises, she's playing this game! Shameful!"

Seeing that things were going south, the elderly woman quickly said, "He's a rich man, making so much money every day, why can't he ask for a little less! Does he have to push us until we're broken and desolate before he's happy?"

"Old lady, that's not how it works. Everyone is equal before the law, and as the child's guardian, you have the obligation to take responsibility. No matter where you take the legal battle, the outcome will be the same."

The lawyer kindly advised, "Moreover, consider this as paying to learn a lesson. From now on, you must be careful when taking the child out."

"It's not like that! I admit I have responsibilities, but doesn't he have to take any blame?"

The elderly woman blurted out, glaring, "Doesn't he have any fault at all?"

"What's wrong with parking the car in a parking lot?"

"Yeah, being scratched by your grandson for no reason, if it were me, I would've called the police already!"

"All of you, get lost! Just get out of here!"

The elderly woman's temper flared, and she began to get up, trying to drive the crowd away.

"Hey hey hey! You old hag, we can't even say two words to you when you're in the wrong!"

"Damn, what they say about a bad person getting old is true, I've seen it with my own eyes today!"

"Damn it, in the future, I have to wait before jumping the gun online, there could be a twist to the story."

The onlookers dispersed, not willing to waste their breath on the old swindler.

"Director Song, our supervisor has arrived,"

Xiao Tang pointed to a middle-aged man who had watched the whole process and said, "I've handed over the matter to him, and I will now assist the supervisor in assessing the damages to your car."

"Hello Mr. Song, I'm the Damage Assessment Supervisor for the Rolls-Royce Magic Capital branch, you can call me Bai Jinnian."

"Hello Mr. Bai, let's not waste words, let's get started,"

After shaking hands with Bai Jinnian, he put on the precision-height glasses for work and began to meticulously inspect the car.

After making a round, he pointed to the front of the car and scolded Xiao Tang, "Here! There are traces of someone stomping on it with force! And it has slightly deformed, the entire front bumper needs to be replaced!"

Xiao Tang's expression sharpened, he quickly walked up, unashamedly crouching down to examine it several times, and after feeling it with his hand, he said, "Indeed, Supervisor Bai, this was my oversight!"

"Don't let it happen again next time!"

After saying this, Bai Jinnian took out a tablet from his bag and opened the official website to check the latest prices.

After summarizing, he said, "Director Song, the assessment is complete. The other party owes you a total compensation of four million two hundred fifty-five thousand six hundred yuan!"

"How much???"

The elderly woman was stunned. How did it end up being even more???

"You didn't hear wrong. These replacement parts all have official prices, you can check them yourself. Also, since Mr. Song is our distinguished super VIP, he enjoys the benefit of complimentary factory maintenance travel expenses; otherwise, you'd have to add another two hundred thousand on top,"

Bai Jinnian took off his glasses, feeling somewhat dizzy, and rubbed his eyes saying, "You'd better make a call and start gathering the money for your child."
