Chapter 537: Chapter 179 I Have Teacher Tang Behind Me!_2 Chapter 537: Chapter 179 I Have Teacher Tang Behind Me!_2 Or should I say, do they even understand what the law is?
Forget it, anyway, this village isn’t too far from the city, just about an hour’s drive away.
Old Tang, carrying a briefcase, got out of the car and started contacting the village secretary.
Although the local departments weren’t receiving him, he still needed to cooperate with the work that was required.
For instance, for something , you must have an official notification, otherwise if you go by yourself, who knows what you’re there for.
Xi Ping Village was bustling today because there was an event going on—a proper health education event with a team of doctors from the big city doing free consultations.
“Elder, your blood pressure is too high, and also, there’s…”
In an open space in the village, a doctor in a white coat was smiling as he checked an old man’s blood pressure while talking.
The old man in front of him hurriedly nodded and asked, “Then…
then Doctor, what should I do about this?”
“Well, our company has some related products that we can recommend for you to try; there’s no problem, they’re all for trial.
Afterwards, you just need to give us feedback from the trial; it only requires you to register, won’t take up much of your time.”
The old man went happily to one side and began registering, while many others waited in line behind him.
Elsewhere at Gao Jianshe’s home, the village secretary picked up his phone and said, “Hello, Lawyer Tang, right?
You’ve arrived at the entrance of the village?
Ok, ok, I’ll come right away.”
After hanging up, Gao Jianshe dressed and left the house, walking towards the entrance of the village.
Although only one person had come, since he was someone “from above,” as the village secretary, Gao Jianshe certainly needed to cooperate with the visitor’s work.
Not to mention, he’d heard of Lawyer Tang’s great reputation online a long time ago, and such a person visiting the village certainly warranted a proper reception.
On his way there, Gao Jianshe soon saw a young man and quickly asked,
“Hello, are you Lawyer Tang Fangjing?”
The young man in front smiled and replied, “Yes, that’s me, you must be Secretary Gao.
We just spoke on the phone.”
Come on, Lawyer Tang, let’s go to the office and rest a bit.
You must be tired from the trip.” Gao Jianshe said with a smile.
As they entered the village, Old Tang said, “It’s nothing, the roads have improved significantly, I slept most of the way here.
Hey, what’s going on over there?”
They hadn’t walked far into the village when Old Tang saw another lively spot on an open ground.
On hearing this, Gao Jianshe took a look and said, “Oh, that’s a company doing an event, providing free health check-ups for the villagers.
They are doing a pretty good job.”
Free health check-ups?
Old Tang immediately furrowed his brows, “A company conducting them?
Gao Jianshe shook his head, “Not a hospital, just a company doing it.
I know what you’re thinking, Lawyer Tang.
The company is very legit, truly all free; it doesn’t cost the villagers a penny.”
“It’s just letting the villagers try their products and then they have to report back their experience…
However, Gao Jianshe didn’t see the displeased expression on Old Tang’s face.
In fact, everyone knows by now that there’s no such thing as a free lunch, and the more something is free, the higher the price you might ultimately pay.
But if the young can’t resist freebies…
not to mention the elderly.
Free diagnostics, merely letting villagers try products and giving feedback might sound very legitimate, but Old Tang felt there was a catch.
Not to speak of his understanding from his previous life, just recently in the villages under Jingnan County, he’d found numerous problems with a plethora of health products and elderly care services flooding the area.
Many people nowadays don’t have contact with rural areas, so they’re unaware, but the fact is that villages, especially those with many left-behind elderly, have long been hotspots for various groups.
Even though they might not have much money, these groups have countless ways to milk people dry without committing a crime, making it futile to even call the police.
So now, whenever Old Tang hears about a “no downsides, all benefits” situation, he can’t help but be skeptical.
Hesitating briefly, he then said, “Secretary Gao, since I’m not tired anyway and have come all this way, let’s take a detour to check it out. Google seaʀᴄh NovelHub(.)net
Legal awareness work can be done anytime, anywhere.”
The forehead of Gao Jianshe, standing opposite him, creased.
This Lawyer Tang truly was as unconventional as they said online.
“Then let’s go, Lawyer Tang, it’s fine to take a look.
But I’ve got things to do on my end, so I can’t accompany you right now.”
“Secretary Gao, you do your thing; no need to worry about me.”
After finishing his words, Old Tang walked along, carrying his briefcase, and stood outside to watch.
Then, noticing a young girl who seemed to be saying something, he paid attention.
“So, they’re really letting you use these products for free?” Xue Lingling asked with furrowed brows.
Auntie nearby said, “Assistant Xue, that’s not true.
After we use them, we still have to tell them how we felt.
It’s not for nothing; they also provide free health check-ups.”
“Without spending a penny!”
Xue Lingling asked again, “Really not spending a penny?
Just giving them your feedback is enough?
Do you think that’s possible?
Look, you’ve been deceived before, so why are you here again?”
“How could there be anything free?
Didn’t the police officer from the station specifically come and talk about it?
They’re just biding their time, wanting to scam you.”
As Old Tang was listening to this, he shook his head.
He didn’t know what this young person did, but she was youthful yet referred to as secretary.
However, her approach was too crude.
