My Wife is a Counsel

Chapter 132: The birth of a letter

Views:

There were only Cheng Lingyu and Lu Ming in VIP Room No. 8 of the Wendebao Club.

The Deputy Director of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office came to the Wendebao Club to meet Lu Ming. It can be said that he was extremely sincere.

After all, everyone knows that this is Lu Ming's territory.

"Qianxing, come here, take a look at this!" Cheng Lingyu smiled, took out a folder and handed it to Lu Ming.

There was a pile of documents in the folder, and the first one was a letter of authorization.

The Supreme Prosecutor's Office's authorization for independent prosecutorial power.

Chief McCann signed it personally.

The authorization letter basically states that in order to commend Attorney Lu Qianxing for his outstanding contributions during his service in the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, Attorney Lu Qianxing is specially appointed as the Special Advisory Commissioner of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office and is granted independent prosecutorial power acting as Chief Justice McKen, in the hope that Attorney Lu Qianxing will continue to serve the Supreme Prosecutor's Office and the social order of Donghai.

Lu Ming resigned from the position of director of the Operations Office because he knew that this administrative office was an attempt by Chief McCann to expand the scope of prosecutorial power, and he was just a pawn in his eyes.

Once this position is stabilized, it will inevitably be handed over to Chief McCann's confidant. When positions are promoted within the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, this permanent institution will have more positions.

From a legal perspective, it is impossible for a non-prosecutor to serve as the head of the permanent agency of the Supreme Procuratorate for a long time.

Unless you give up your identity as a lawyer and truly join the ranks of prosecutors.

Even though many systems in this world are different from those in my previous life, the core is the same.

Therefore, it is wisest to resign on your own initiative.

And now, this is the reward given to me by General McCann.

The case in which he sent young Renault to the gallows was the most high-profile one in the Supreme Prosecutor's Office since Chief Prosecutor McCann took office.

I added a lot of points to him, and it also made it possible for the Operations Office to be retained with justification and become a permanent institution of the Supreme Procuratorate.

I decided to retreat while the going was good, thus avoiding putting him in a difficult position.

Therefore, the rewards given to oneself will inevitably match the benefits that one brings to him.

However, granting oneself independent prosecutorial power is a reward that is quite generous.

In other words, as a special consultant to the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, he possesses the authority that only a senior director of public prosecution has.

Any illegal cases occurring in the East China Sea can be investigated and prosecuted.

Of course, the difference is that his prosecutorial power is that of "Acting Chief McCann."

That is to say, when he was investigating a case, his own independent office, in fact, the real independent prosecutor was Chief McCann, and he was only acting on his behalf as an agent of the prosecutorial power.

In this way, the legal issue of granting prosecutorial power to non-prosecutors for a long time is circumvented.

Moreover, from a legal point of view, if Secretary McCann disagrees, he cannot investigate the relevant case.

But then again, even if the Senior Director of Public Prosecutions has independent prosecutorial powers, when Chief Secretary McCann really intervenes, how many people can really withstand it

After thinking about it, Lu Ming nodded, picked up the pen, and signed his name where it was required.

Cheng Lingyu smiled and pointed to a thick stack of forms under the folder. "Your independent office will be equipped with a deputy director of prosecution, two prosecutors and two assistant prosecutors. Take a look at the people here and keep any one you want. These include not only people from your operations office, but also some newcomers. You can choose from them."

Lu Ming picked up the form, Deputy Director of Prosecution, and left Liu Teng, the leader of the second group of the Operations Office.

This guy's character is actually not very good. He is the kind of flatterer. Moreover, he has no backing in the Supreme Procuratorate. His previous backer has fallen, and now he is feeling quite aggrieved. He resigned on his own initiative, and he probably won't be able to be the team leader anymore.

But they are more perceptive, more capable, and more respectful and obedient to their superiors.

As for their own independent government departments, they place more emphasis on obedience.

So, I chose him.

As for the two candidates for the official prosecutors, they were also from the operations office. They were both very obedient prosecutors in their thirties and forties who did not have their own opinions.

Assistant prosecutor

Wang Xiaohu? Han Annie

These two names immediately popped up in Lu Ming's mind, but then he shook his head.

I feel that they should develop freely so as to better exercise their abilities.

To be honest, all the people in this independent government office are crooked and useless, and they just need to listen to me.

There is no benefit for Wang Xiaohu and Han Annie to hang out with these people.

After randomly pulling out the forms of two assistant prosecutors, Lu Ming said, "Brother Cheng, there are two assistant prosecutors in the Operations Office, Wang Xiaohu and Han Anni, both of whom are very smart prosecutors."

Cheng Lingyu nodded in understanding, "They both made great contributions this time. It will be no problem for both of them to remove the word "assistant" from their titles by the end of the year."

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Okay, thank you Brother Cheng."

Cheng Lingyu added: "There is also an action team. Your government office should equip more of them. I will give you a ten-man action team. If you encounter a major case, we will recruit more people."

Lu Ming nodded slightly.

Cheng Lingyu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then said thoughtfully, "Have you ever considered becoming a prosecutor?"

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Forget it. I still like to be free. Besides, I have joined the Grand Duchy Party and will participate in the parliamentary election at the end of the year. If I want to be a prosecutor, it won't work. Brother Cheng, you can help me canvass for votes when the time comes!"

Cheng Lingyu did not find it strange and sighed: "This is also the reason why Chief McKen and I do not have the confidence to convince you. For you, the temple of the Supreme Procuratorate is too small!"

A trace of deep thought flashed in his eyes. "Director McCann, I also wish you success in the election. I also hope that you can speak more for our Supreme Prosecutor's Office when the time comes."

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Member of the Beiguan Council, how can you say you are speaking for the Supreme Procuratorate?"

"I'm talking about the future! Qianhang, you don't have to keep playing dumb with me!" Cheng Lingyu laughed, "You kid, maybe in a few years, you will be Chief McCann's guest of honor, or even Chief McCann's friend in a few years! Chief McCann gave you special prosecutorial power, which is the first time in Donghai's prosecutorial history. To be honest, Chief McCann spent a lot of time thinking about how to circumvent the legal difficulties. There is no way to continue to let you serve as the office manager. You also understand that this is indeed not to burn bridges after crossing the river."

Lu Ming nodded: "I know."

"Then why didn't you meet President McCann yesterday?!" Cheng Lingyu shook his head helplessly, "You still feel a little uncomfortable, don't you?"

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Really not. I'm really too busy. General Manager McCann called my office and asked me to meet him in two hours. It was already late at night when the office staff found me."

"Well, you have to make an appointment now, kid. Didn't I make an appointment with your office assistant last night?"

Lu Ming could only smile bitterly. Indeed, he was running around all day yesterday, and for several hours, he secretly discussed with his business partner to drive up the Donghai futures trading price of rebar. With the construction boom in recent years, steel prices have been rising. However, the largest steel mill in the neighboring state, which is also one of the largest steel mills in the empire, was temporarily stopped by the local court due to a class action lawsuit caused by environmental issues.

In peacetime, it is like this. The middle class will inevitably produce unrealistic white leftist thoughts and environmentalism. In my previous life, they were also born in a long period of peace. If wars break out frequently, these ideas will not have soil.

His own firm, in conjunction with Liu Hanming's firm, is preparing to file a lawsuit against the largest steel plant in Donghai on behalf of nearby residents. However, the lawyers in the firm naturally do not know that this is also to cooperate with their own business activities.

This steel mill is also one of the five largest steel mills in the empire. Strictly speaking, it is not located in Donghai, but in an enclave in a neighboring state. However, that enclave belongs to a satellite town of Donghai.

There is no need to appear in this lawsuit myself. In fact, winning or losing is not important. The main thing is to create momentum.

I believe that this will also trigger a chain reaction of class action lawsuits against steel companies within the empire.

And his business partners would not know that he was not only trying to make a fortune in the futures market, but also adding fuel to the fire of the difficulties in the construction of the Renault Building.

The Renault family's sudden decline in reputation should also have affected their financing for building the building.

If the prices of steel and other building materials soar, construction companies will naturally increase their quotes.

The Renault family spent a huge sum of money to buy the land. If construction is delayed, the losses will be calculated by the number of days.

It is estimated that the Renault family will increase financing and dividends at all costs.

Because they hope that, like in the past, the upcoming big-budget blockbusters will bring them huge incomes, thus easing the pressure on their capital chain.

But if their big-budget films suffer another heavy blow in the film market, especially if the box office of several big productions to be released this year are terrible, then they will be in real trouble.

Lu Ming thought about it randomly and said to Cheng Lingyu with a smile: "I will go to visit President McKen in a few days."

Cheng Lingyu nodded in satisfaction and said, "Don't worry about the Renault family. Chief McKen has sent a message that if the family members or friends of any prosecutor in the Operations Office are retaliated by the Renault family, it will bring disaster to the Renault family."

Lu Ming nodded and said with a smile: "But I still have to take the necessary precautions. The Renault family are all mentally ill. Who would have thought that little Renault could speak the Central Plains dialect, and speak it fluently? What do you think? Alas..." He shook his head.

Cheng Lingyu nodded, "That's right." He glanced at Lu Ming and said, "Boy, you should take it easy in recruiting mercenaries."

Lu Ming smiled: "There is no other way. This is for the Renault family to see. Besides, it's a legal group, right?"

Lu Ming has recently recruited more than a hundred mercenaries and registered the club as the "Freedom Power". These mercenaries are all members of the club, which is a kind of deformed militia organization. This kind of organization is allowed to exist in most states and provinces in the empire.

Decades ago, the White Rose was also an open organization with its own fixed venue, but because of its bad record, it was eventually identified as an illegal organization and was banned.

Over there, Cheng Lingyu sighed, "Don't worry, Chief McCann loves you very much. The Renault family should be able to feel the message conveyed by Chief McCann. If a prosecutor has to protect himself after a big lawsuit, then Chief McCann, no, the Great Procuratorate, what authority does he have? Anyone who retaliates against the prosecutor will be the enemy of our entire Great Procuratorate!"

Lu Ming nodded, however, the Free Power Club came into being, and the Renault family was a good reason.

The club's philosophy and slogans were all thought out by themselves: without freedom, the mother would rather die; equal society, citizen autonomy; and so on. These were slowly instilled into the club, allowing the organization and its armed political ideas to gradually take root.

An organization must have extremely noble goals to have real cohesion.

Even the *** organization, similarly, they believe that their goals are noble.

And now, I hope that I can slowly create such an armed organization.

For me, this is not just about dealing with the Renault family. My secret enemies may be more ferocious than the other.

I don’t know what kind of powerful person the ancestor of this world is, but he seems to be the enemy of the whole world.

Even Alice didn't know if she was the target of her father's nightmares.

Therefore, we must grasp the gun, power, and purse, and we must have a firm grasp on all three.

Before revealing the treasure, try to strengthen your various powers.

In this chaotic world, you will have a greater chance of not getting GAME OVER for no apparent reason.
