Chapter 193: Confusing Earnest Money and Deposits_3
These three "golds," what's the difference between them, especially the first two? It's really hard to tell them apart.
Seeing that Lv Ziyang's expression was off, the opposite Wang Rui immediately said, "Since you brought the subscription agreement, take a look at the deposit clause here. If you decide not to buy this house and don't sign the contract, that's a breach on your part, and the deposit won't be refunded."
"Besides, didn't we agree on a month? If you don't come to sign within a month, then after the deadline, the deposit won't be refunded either. Understand?"
Contracts are ironclad, there's no regret once you sign. That's why the state's legal education constantly advises not to sign contracts lightly, because once you do, it's not easy to back out.
Standing silently beside, Lv Jianshe forced a smile and said, "Well... then we'll go back and continue to gather the money. We're definitely going to buy the house."
The deal wasn't signed, but Wang Rui didn't care. In fact, after signing the reservation agreement, there were many who came back saying they didn't want it, but most were convinced to stay by the sales team.

After all, the deposit had been paid, and it was non-refundable.
After Lv Ziyang and his family left the sales office, Lv Jianshe sighed and said, "Son, look at the situation now, they're not giving our money back."
The elder spent his whole life working the fields and had never faced such a situation. In fact, if it weren't for buying a house for his son, he would never have set foot in such a fancy place.
Yes, in the eyes of the elderly, a sales office is indeed a fancy place.
Lv Ziyang kept silent, but eventually said, "Dad, Mom, don't worry just yet. Let me think of a solution, think of a solution..."
However, as a computer science graduate, he was articulate about his field, but clueless when it came to matters like this.
After hesitating for quite a while, he thought it best to first seek legal advice...
But glancing through his phone contacts, Lv Ziyang felt a bit unreal. Back in the day, it was impossible to tell that anyone could have such a knack for law from the same major as him.
But now, there was no chance he would approach him. It had been a long time since graduation, and the other had become a prominent lawyer, while he was still struggling like this...
Many people are like this, not just the young. There's a strange sense of pride that often gets in the way.
After returning home, Lv Ziyang began looking for a lawyer, searching online and adding a bunch of people with the title of lawyer. However, after asking a few questions, he realized they all shared the same attitude, leading him to visit their offices for a detailed conversation.
Having looked up the regulations regarding deposits online for half a day, he ended up dizzy and confused without a clue, only vaguely understanding that if he didn't want to proceed, it meant breaching the contract, and indeed the deposit would not be refunded...
Out of options, he found a reputedly decent lawyer through a colleague's recommendation.
At Yi Hang Law Firm, Wang Dengfeng, holding the title of senior partner, was idly browsing his phone. It had been over a year since he left Da Feng Law Firm, and he was now considered a rising star among Jingzhou's young lawyers.
His peers often praised him, saying that he was a standout among young lawyers and that given time, he might become a leading figure in the industry.
Each time, Wang Dengfeng would nod in agreement with a smile, but when he got home, he felt like smashing his phone.
Not for any reason other than thinking about Old Han and... Tang Fangjing.
When people praised him, they always talked about how he stood out among Jingzhou's young lawyers, saying he's the number one among the young ones. But Tang Fangjing is a young lawyer too!
This suggests that everyone already takes for granted that Tang Fangjing is not counted among the ranks of the young lawyers...
He, Wang Dengfeng, might become an industry mogul or a prominent lawyer given time, but Tang Fangjing is already at the top of the league...
This was nothing short of an insult. In what ways was he inferior to Tang Fangjing? The other guy just had the luck of encountering a few crazies, with incidents involving cement trucks and stabbing.
Without those, Tang Fangjing would be nothing!
Forget it, indulging in these thoughts would just lead to another broken phone. Wang Dengfeng had to forcibly concentrate, as the client he had an appointment with had arrived.
Upon seeing the appearance of Lv Ziyang and his family, Wang Dengfeng's eyes flickered with irritation. He didn't look down on these clients, but typically, such clients were not willing to pay high fees.
But since the client was referred by a friend, he had to entertain them. However, Wang Dengfeng had already decided to set a high fee to deter them.
"Hello, which one of you is Mr. Lv Ziyang?" Wang Dengfeng greeted enthusiastically.
Across from him, Lv Ziyang entered the office with his wife Li Juan and his parents, saying, "I'm Lv Ziyang, and you must be Lawyer Wang Dengfeng, right?"
"Yes, that's me. Please, everyone take a seat, let's sit down and talk." Wang Dengfeng still had a warm demeanor.
Once everyone was seated, Wang Dengfeng said, "Mr. Lv, go ahead and tell me what's going on, but I have to let you know that consultations here are charged. However, since you were referred by someone I know, I'll give you a discount, two hundred for one hour."
Lv Ziyang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lawyer Wang, the situation is like this..."
After listening to Lv Ziyang's detailed account, Wang Dengfeng immediately said, "Mr. Lv, your situation is a bit complicated, and generally in cases like this, the deposit really is non-refundable."
Lv Ziyang quickly replied, "But, but Lawyer Wang, it's clear that they are at fault, and if this continues, the chances of the construction failing are very high!"
