Jiang Hanyun shook his head and said, "That's not enough, what about the others? Why haven't they agreed?"
Wang Yanlong replied helplessly, "They just think they can try both sides, it's only two thousand yuan, even if it's lost, so they didn't withdraw the lawsuit."
For many unfinished building owners, two thousand yuan won't cost them their lives, so as long as lawsuits are said to be effective, they might as well file one casually.
Lawyer Tang at least managed to get the developer's boss sent to jail, and on your side as the developer, it's just a few words and a few pieces of paper—most people can still tell the difference.
As for why there are few actual lawsuits, it's because everyone else is smart—they all want to see if these lawsuits you're talking about are actually effective.
If they are effective, then we can follow suit and file our own lawsuits.
Let others be the ones to step on the landmines. After all, with such a large housing complex, there will always be someone desperate. They will certainly be the most aggressive, while we, who have our shoes on, will wait and watch.
"Then find a way, Director Wang, see if you can..."
Wang Yanlong nodded, "I can. I've already taken note of the most active few households, and can start today."
That's all we can do for now; there aren't any other good solutions.
However, at this moment, a man in a suit next to him received a call on his mobile phone. After listening for a few moments, his face suddenly changed.
"Director Wang, Sister Lv, a friend of mine told me the court filed another batch of cases today, over a hundred more households have filed lawsuits against that housing complex!"
What? Wang Yanlong abruptly stood up and said, "Over a hundred households? They've all been filed, have they? What's going on?"
Even dealing with sixty-odd households was tough enough, and now all the money being spent is his own.
Now they've gone and filed suits for over a hundred more households—what is he supposed to do?
"We don't know yet," said the man in the suit, shaking his head.
Over a hundred households—Wang Yanlong was at a loss. He could intimidate a few, but too many visits might lead to the police being called, and with the crackdown on organized crime in full swing, and with his many previous convictions, one wrong move could land him as a performance statistic.

The man in the suit dialed the phone again.
"Yes, there are over a hundred more, what's going on? Ah? Tang Fangjing is still promoting nonstop? Okay, I got it."
After hanging up, the man in the suit said, "It's still that Tang Fangjing, saying that recently he's been joining groups everywhere, some even door-to-door, just to get others to sue together!"
What, Wang Yanlong exploded, "Is this Tang guy asking for death? Does he really think we wouldn't dare touch him? Did surviving that knife attack make him think he's invincible?"
Nothing matters but self-interest; the reason why Wang Yanlong was so angry was because of the huge assets of Li Shuwei that had been frozen.
As long as the money is there, nothing is a problem, but if the money is gone, a person like him would lead a life worse than anything.
"Damn it, ten years ago, I would have wasted him already. Sister-in-law, what should we do?"
Lv Yazhen also looked displeased, but she hesitated.
"Yan Long, don't rush it. We're not at that point yet; let's think of another way."
Wang Yanlong sat down. What else could he do? Right now, he only wanted Tang Fangjing to disappear!
In a room on the other side, a wife said to Yu Jianshe, "Old Yu, don't think too much. We really need the money right now. Chairman Jiang gave us the money he promised, so we have no choice but to withdraw the complaint, right?"
Old Yu sighed and said, "Lawyer Tang is a good man. He's helped our family so much, and now I'm doing this..."
"I've told you not to worry too much. He's a good man, yes, but we also paid him the retainer, we didn't get him to work for nothing. That's it, stop thinking about it."
"They won't succeed!"
Old Yu was surprised, "How do you know that?"
"It's all over the internet. The case has been reported by the media now, and many lawyers are saying it's impossible to win. Otherwise, it would cause a lot of problems."
Old Yu quickly picked up his phone and searched around, and sure enough, somehow the case had gotten out, and a bunch of self-media verified as lawyers had started to voice their opinions.
"Lawyer Zheng": Everyone must have seen that new case of Lawyer Tang Fangjing by now. I'll just say this, it's impossible to win. Really not possible.
"To demand money from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development is like a fantasy, you know. I admire Lawyer Tang's previous cases, but with this one, I can't see the point of it... it seems a bit like playing to the gallery."
Lawyer Zheng was very confident he wouldn't mess up this time; Guangming District Court would be insane to rule in Tang Fangjing's favor.
About Tang Fangjing himself, he also felt that the man had gone crazy for fame.
Straight to the point were comments from people like "Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes,"
"Look, I told you it's all about the money; this is a good angle. He first creates a reckless persona, then starts taking on unfinished building cases."
"With so many people in a single complex, just a little effort can bring in tens of thousands. Now you get it, right?"
Besides that, there were many more comments, even from some claiming to be insiders, who straightforwardly said the case was doomed, the related departments would never spend money on such an issue.
After seeing this, Old Yu fell silent, unsure of what to say.
It was already the afternoon, and in the Tengda Law Firm, Old Tang hung up the phone.
This had been his third call with that family, and despite persuasion, they just wouldn't agree to file a lawsuit. In the end, they even began to question if he was just trying to scam legal fees or something.
To this, Old Tang felt helpless—he had made the whole situation clear already, revealing everything he had done before, but they still said they would think it over.
