Chapter 167: not wrong

"It's just a part-time job. What are you still hesitating to do? Are you so lazy? Can't you work a little overtime? In fact, Griffin is just looking for a step for you."

At this time, Zhang San's wife, like most housewives, began to ramble a little bit.

After all, it is really not a difficult thing to just work as a part-time legal consultant, and it is not as hard as going out as a part-time lawyer occasionally, so that you can get an extra income and incidentally solve the matter of the son's betrothal wedding room. This is simply heaven. Good thing about pies.

"Griffin, I wouldn't mind another part-time job if you had said it a day earlier, but now I can only refuse your kind offer."

Zhang San showed a helpless smile.

Originally he thought that Griffin was asking him to file a lawsuit or consult legal issues, which made him very embarrassed.

Never thought that Griffin's "request" that he thought would not embarrass him would make him even more helpless.

Not long ago, he found a new job and advanced a salary of 1.2 million.

The price of the advance salary is that he has been completely tied to the new company, and he is not allowed to change jobs within the year of the advance payment. He is a full-time legal consultant for Xinghai Ventures, and he is not allowed to provide legal advice and assistance for anyone else.

The most annoying thing is that this contract was drafted by him personally. It was impossible to find any loopholes, and in order to express gratitude and sincerity, he set the price of breach of contract extremely high.

To a certain extent, this is also a realistic version of "shooting yourself in the foot" in the literal sense.

It was only in the eyes of the time that these treaties were obviously unreasonable, and could even be called benevolent.

How can a boss advance millions of salary to an employee who has not yet taken office. Isn't it a matter of course that they can't change jobs within a year after a year's salary advance?

It is also reasonable to be the legal director of the company not to provide legal assistance to outsiders to avoid risks.

In fact, even at this moment, he thought so.

But acknowledging the rationality does not eliminate his embarrassment at this time - it is foreseeable that there may be many times when faced with this situation in the future.

But a contract is a contract. He can find loopholes and criticize its rationality and legitimacy, but he cannot allow himself to breach the contract, and he does not dare to breach the contract.

Not to mention any other factors, a dignified law professor who blatantly breached the contract would be disgraced without legal sanctions, at least in academia.

"Why?"

Griffin Jones was stunned when he heard Zhang San's reply.

Because of the poor information, he couldn't understand why Zhang San rejected him at all.

He was full of confidence just now. After all, after playing the emotional card for so long, and offering a helping hand at a critical moment, Zhang San reluctantly agreed with his wife's instigation and nagging even if he didn't want to agree.

Not only Griffin Jones, but even Zhang San's wife is a little surprised now, followed by anxiety.

"Sorry, Griffin, I just said that I have raised the money I need, but this is actually a salary advance that I agreed to an offer from a company."

With a little apology on his face, Zhang San explained, "I signed a contract for the advance salary, and I can't provide legal assistance to anyone else, let alone a part-time legal counselor for you."

"You promised other companies? When did it happen?"

Zhang San's words were undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Griffin Jones.

He just noticed that Zhang San's personality is not easy to handle, so he found another way to play emotional cards through his wife and children.

In the end, you told me that you were easily dealt with by other companies? Valley

And when did this happen? Could it be this afternoon? You were all still worrying about the bride price just now.

"On the way back just now."

Zhang San apologetically affirmed Griffin Jones' guess, and stabbed him in the heart invisibly: "So I said Griffin, you said it too late, even if you told me this morning I can promise you."

"Can...can you tell me which company it is?"

Griffin Jones's mind and thoughts were completely chaotic.

"Sorry, the boss specifically instructed not to speak out for the time being."

Zhang San shook his head again and smiled bitterly.

He is now wondering if his new boss has made a special plan to play tricks on him.

Of course, all this is obviously just a coincidence or a scene that must be encountered, so this is just a joke that he flashed.

"Then can you tell me what treatment the company offered to Mr. Zhang?"

Even though he knew it was a foregone conclusion, Griffin Jones was still a little unwilling.

How could he be reconciled? In order to win over Zhang Sandu, he had been a warm-hearted neighbor for several days with his wife and children.

"The annual salary is 1.2 million, and I promised to advance my salary for a year in advance."

Zhang San breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and finally had someone who could answer, otherwise he would be a little embarrassed to continue refusing like this.

"One million and two hundred thousand? Still advance?"

Griffin Jones caught his breath, and was immediately disbelieving.

An annual salary of 1.2 million just to hire a lawyer is too exaggerated.

What's more, it is unheard of to directly let the advance pay for a year's salary. Why didn't he encounter such good things when he was working before?

However, in that case, he didn't lose a lot.

There is no need for Zhang San to lie to him about this kind of thing, and the annual salary of 1.2 million, he may also be able to pay, but he is accustomed to careful calculation, but he will not do such a stupid thing that pays several times the salary for nothing.

What's more, he directly gave Zhang San a year's salary in advance In case of absconding with money, wouldn't it be a waste? This is 1.2 million, not 120 yuan.

Even if he doesn't care about this, he can't really give Zhang San more than one million yuan now. After all, he has just started, and he has only a few million in total. He still has to set up Tianshen Venture Capital and continue to invest. , to be able to lend 300,000 to 400,000 yuan to Zhang San is already a great determination.

So, the clown is actually me?

"Since Mr. Zhang has raised the money, I won't worry about it any more.

But one day, Mr. Zhang, if you resign and leave your current company, you can come to me at any time, and the door of Tianshen Ventures will always be open for you. "

Griffin Jones' face was a little blue, but he still managed to squeeze out a smile, forced to say a few words, and then left.

The moment he turned his back, his face was completely gloomy as water, gloomy and hostile.
