Wang Daan is bleeding heavily today. The place where he is invited to eat is called Yoshikawa Food, which is an Oriental cuisine.

Although the store is obviously owned by Zhongzhou people, the decoration style and the costumes of the waiters are all in the Oriental style. The round windows, low couches, and the simple layout of the elegant rooms with clear lines are very authentic Oriental style.

The Japanese, also known as the Yingzhou people, are the second largest federation of the Federal Empire. The Yingzhou Kingdom was once a vassal state of the Zhongzhou Dynasty like the Westerners. Thousands of years ago, the Yingzhou Kingdom cooperated with the outside world and stabbed the Zhongzhou Dynasty in the back. Together with the Westerners, they destroyed the Central Continent Dynasty.

Of course, this legend still exists in the unofficial history of the four northern provinces. In the southern states and provinces, this period of history has long been forgotten.

Although the current laws of the empire allow all races to be equal and prosper together, each federal body also maintains a large degree of autonomy.

But in fact, within the empire, there are still insurmountable barriers for various groups. The Westerners have the highest status, followed by the Yingzhou people, the Zhongzhou people in the third place, the Westerners of the Western Free City-State Alliance in the fourth place, and the Southern Brave Chieftains. The Nanyang people in the collective have the lowest status.

The Yingzhou Kingdom is located in the eastern coastal archipelago, so the Yingzhou people are also called Oriental people.

The status of each ethnic group is also reflected in their cultural identity. For example, for the Central Asians, Oriental cuisine is an expensive commodity.

Now Lu Ming, Wang Daan, Chen Qinghua, and Jiji are sitting on their knees on the soft couches in the elegant room. There are mostly raw seafood on the low wooden table.

Beiguan is close to the sea. The price of local seafood is not high, but the price of Oriental cuisine is relatively high. For example, salmon sashimi. The local salmon retails for 1 dime per pound, but the thin slices of fish in this sashimi may only cost 20 cents. Three taels, but the price is 50 cents.

This table of dishes costs about 4 yuan, which is very luxurious for the working class.

This is the first time Jiji has eaten Japanese food in Lu Ming’s eyes. Her eyes are shining, but she suppresses the excitement in her heart for fear of being looked down upon. She never forgets to take care of the meal and help Lu Ming and Wang Da'an served tea and water and took good care of him. The little girl got up from time to time to get Lu Ming condiments and the like. Chen Qinghua often peeked at her slender black silk legs under the dark blue uniform skirt.

"Japanese food is said to be hygienic and healthy, and it is good for the body! It is indeed light to eat!" Wang Daan looked envious, "Our ancestors did not have such knowledge."

Lu Ming smiled, picked up the water and took a sip. Although it felt that the ancestors of Zhongzhou had a longer history of eating sashimi, after all, it was just a side dish, and the staple food still had to be steamed. From the perspective of ancient hygienic conditions , is the best choice.

But there is no need to engage in verbal disputes here, it is just a useless effort.

"Lawyer Wang, I disagree with your words..." Chen Qinghua suddenly raised his head and did not glance at Jiji's black silk stockings.

"Oh? What do you mean?" Wang Daan was stunned.

"What's wrong with our ancestors? We Zhongzhou people have a population of tens of millions. Do the Orientals have it? If they eat healthier, why are they not as populous as us?" Chen Qinghua scratched his neck, and the young man slapped him. Like chicken blood.

"Yingzhou Island is not rich in products, and of course its population is not as good as ours!" Wang Daan laughed dumbly, "You are too young and too naive. It seems that it is a big mistake to say something bad about our ancestors. This is objective Why do I seem to have forgotten my ancestors when I came here?"

"Our ancestors are not good, and they have been oppressing Westerners and Easterners for thousands of years? What were they back then? Just barbarians! One is a greedy white-skinned person, and the other is a capricious villain!" Chen Qinghua's eyes widened, as if someone had stepped on his tail.

"Stop talking nonsense, read some wild history nonsense!" Wang Daan looked around, his face became nervous, "Where did you get the banned book? Burn it quickly!"

Chen Qinghua also knew that he had made a mistake, and shook his head quickly, "I, I heard what others said nonsense..." He picked up the wine cup, poured it into his mouth, and then coughed heavily.

Wang Daan looked at him and said to himself that such a dangerous person should be fired, otherwise it would cause big trouble to the law firm.

But in reality, although Chen Qinghua is an employee of a law firm and he is one of the two bosses, Chen Qinghua's salary is paid by Lawyer Lu, so it is difficult for him to propose to fire him.

Lu Ming, however, looked at Chen Qinghua. He could not have imagined that it was rare for the younger generation to remain respectful and proud of their ancestors without being overwhelmed by Western culture.

"Brother Wang, I see you have taken on a lot of cases recently? Is there anything new?" Lu Ming asked with a smile, changing the topic.

"There's nothing else..." Wang Daan hesitated, "There's just a murder case, which is a bit troublesome."

A murder? Lu Ming was startled for a moment. Logically speaking, when the court arranges legal aid cases, it still depends on the lawyer's ability. Wang Daan's reputation and status in Beiguan's legal community means that even if he is involved in legal aid cases, murder cases should not be assigned to him.

"The main reason is that the other party does not agree to the plea agreement and must go to court. However, my client is determined not to admit to conspiracy to **** and murder. That will lead to the gallows. How can he agree?"

Wang Daan sighed: "If I go to court and lose the case, if I deduct another 10 points, I'm afraid my lawyer license will be revoked."

Wang Daan’s assessment score is minus 87 points. If he loses a lawsuit, he will be deducted 10 points. His assessment score is minus 97 points. He is only one step away from having his lawyer license revoked.

The lawyer assessment score is based on 300, which is increased by three times.

Minus 100-300 points are junior defenders; 300-900 are intermediate defenders; 900-2700 are senior defenders, and so on. New lawyer levels are approved every summer.

Because scores are more dangerous, Wang Daan never goes to court when he files lawsuits. They are all settled out of court. Legal aid cases are all about providing legal advice.

Then the mid-year evaluation day came. He had worked hard this year and received a lot of legal aid. He would receive extra points in the comprehensive evaluation and be able to get out of the danger zone.

But he didn't expect that he would now be charged with a serious crime that required him to go to court.

Lu Ming looked at him and smiled, "Don't worry, maybe we will win? I will help you find out the doubts later."

Wang Daan smiled bitterly, "Forget it, don't drag you into it. This time the prosecution lawyer is hired from outside, not the prosecutor. He is the number one lawyer in Beiguan."

Lu Ming was startled, "Liu Hanxuan? No way, he personally took action?"

"That's him..." A wry smile appeared on Wang Daan's face, "It seems that he will have a perfect ending. After the summer, he will advance to the fourth stage."

Liu Hanzhen, the assessment is divided into 2697 points. Now he is a third-level advocate. As long as he gets 4 points and exceeds 2700 points before the Bar Association assesses the new lawyer level in the summer, he can enter after the summer. The level is divided into four levels, senior lawyer.

"I want to get the last drop of blood from you and harvest your head..." Lu Ming smiled, with a hint of playfulness in his eyes, "Actually, you want to harvest mine, right?"

Wang Da'an didn't understand that Lu Ming was talking about some game terms, but he agreed with his **** description, "Qian Xing, don't interfere, this matter is over, let Liu Hanhuan vent his anger, and there will be no future Staring at us."

Lu Ming smiled and said: "If you want to vent your anger, wouldn't it be better to harvest mine? In this way, after dinner, I will go back and look at the case files." Seeing that Wang Daan still wanted to persuade him, Lu Ming said solemnly: "Brother Wang , leave it to me, your score is too dangerous, and it was me who caused the matter. I let him vent his anger, so that he can relieve his anger and won't find trouble with us in the future, right?"

Wang Daan thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, you are right."

This young partner scored more than 31 points in the assessment. If he loses, he will be deducted 10 points, which is nothing. In this way, the holiday with Liu Hanxuan Law Firm is over, which is good.

Jiji was listening to the conversation between the two and breathed a sigh of relief. My cousin drank too much yesterday and was crying and making trouble. This case tortured my cousin quite a lot, but he couldn’t be beaten with a stick. With a character like Sanshi, he keeps everything in his heart.

Although the big boss is young, he seems to be much more powerful than his cousin. With the big boss helping him, he should be fine, right?

Jiji secretly glanced at the young boss.

Once my cousin fails to become a lawyer, he will be driven back to the countryside where cow dung is everywhere. After these days of life, if he wants to go back to the past, he would rather commit suicide!
