At the Pinnacle of Power: The Female Leader and Her Chief Advisor
Chapter 77 Successfully appeased
Wu Yun suddenly felt a sense of admiration for Lu Ming.
The strategy of feigning indifference to lure the prey is brilliant!
He so casually defused the extremely heinous act of blocking the door with a coffin.
Whether she liked Lu Ming or not, she had to admit that this guy was indeed outstanding.
After the family members said all sorts of nice things, Lu Ming's expression gradually softened.
"If you trust me, I'll negotiate the compensation for you. If you don't trust me..."
"We believe you, we believe you, we will definitely believe what Secretary Lu says."
"Yes, yes, Secretary Lu, you are truly helping us."
"Exactly, if we don't trust Secretary Lu, who else can we trust?"
Lu Ming stood up, pointed to the deceased's immediate family members, and said, "You guys, come with me for a moment."
When it comes to compensation, you only need to talk to your immediate family members.
As for the other family members, to put it bluntly, what does it have to do with them?
They're just here for the fun of it!
They even wanted to profit from the compensation!
Lu Ming asked the on-duty nurse for an empty ward, and then led everyone inside.
He said with a serious expression, "You've all seen the traffic police's accident report, haven't you?"
Everyone said, "We've seen it."
Lu Ming sighed: "I know you all can't accept the verdict that the driver is not at fault."
"But even if I can't accept it, this is the objective situation, and the driver is not at fault, that's all."
"You have your own cars, so I don't think I need to explain that further."
Everyone fell silent.
Lu Ming continued, "So, legally speaking, the driver is not at fault. At most, out of humanitarian concern, he might be compensated with tens of thousands of yuan."
Seeing that everyone was about to get excited again, Lu Ming hurriedly said, "Don't rush, let me finish."
"The driver's lack of responsibility does not mean that no one will compensate. After all, five people died at once, and the leaders do not want to make a big fuss about it."
"I've been in talks with the district government leaders all evening, and we were almost at an agreement, but you guys are really causing us a lot of trouble. You even went to block the entrance to the municipal party committee!"
For a moment, everyone looked somewhat embarrassed.
"To be honest, whether you block the door or not has no effect on me at all."
"I'm just a secretary. Even if something really serious happens, the higher-ups will take the blame."
Hearing this, everyone was afraid that Lu Ming would abandon his post, so they hurriedly said, "Secretary Lu, don't worry, we will definitely not block the door. You mustn't abandon us."
Lu Ming, looking helpless, said, "I'll try my best to negotiate with the district government, and I'll also try my best to get you compensation. I can't say how much, but it won't be less than 500,000!"
Five hundred thousand?
Everyone's expression was unnatural.
Although Lu Ming had been running around helping them, 500,000 was still far too little.
"Secretary Lu, isn't 500,000 a bit too little?"
Lu Ming nodded: "Of course I know that's too little. It's a human life. Let alone 500,000, even 1 million or 2 million wouldn't be excessive."
He pretended to be annoyed, walked to the bedside, opened the window, and lit a cigarette.
After taking a couple of puffs, he suddenly said, "Here's an idea I have for you, which might help you get more compensation."
"Secretary Lu, you say it, we'll all listen to you."
"Tomorrow, go to a law firm and hire a lawyer to come and talk to me. That way, the higher-ups can see your attitude and know that you genuinely want to resolve the issue instead of just making trouble and being unreasonable. Then I can talk to the higher-ups and ask them to raise the compensation amount a bit."
The group was moved, feeling that Secretary Lu was truly a good official who served the people.
"Alright, it's getting late. You should go home if you have nothing else to do. Don't stay in the hospital."
Lu Ming walked to the door and then stopped, finally reminding them, "Let me remind you one more time: if you still want compensation, then you need to show some attitude and talk things over properly."
"If extreme methods are used, such as blocking the door and causing trouble, not only will you not get the corresponding compensation, but you will also get yourself imprisoned."
"It would be a real loss if you did that, so don't come looking for me then."
Everyone gave an awkward laugh and quickly assured each other that it would never happen.
"By the way, and those people outside, you should also be careful. Don't believe everything others say."
"You say they're relatives, but the person who died wasn't a family member, and the compensation isn't a small sum. Aren't they even a little bit envious?"
"They'd love for you to make a big fuss, so you won't get a single penny in compensation!"
After saying that, Lu Ming went out and left, leaving only one family member deep in thought.
Lu Ming's last words seemed to awaken someone from a dream.
The idea of dragging a coffin to block the entrance of the municipal government was suggested by one of their relatives.
Now that Lu Ming has said that, looking back, it really was pushing them into a fire pit.
After leaving the hospital, Wu Yun asked, "Is the matter resolved?"
"More or less."
"How was it resolved?"
What do you think?
"Losing money?"
Lu Ming nodded.
Wu Yun asked, puzzled, "Where did the money come from?"
The driver is not at fault, and the insurance company won't pay. Who will pay for all this money?
Lu Ming chuckled, offered no explanation, got into his car, and drove away.
Wu Yun was so angry that she gritted her teeth and stomped her feet. She felt that Lu Ming was too arrogant and simply did not take her, the head of the accident investigation and handling team, seriously.
Lu Ming went straight to Mu Xueqi's house, where she had been waiting for a long time.
After a quick rinse, Lu Ming immediately entered battle mode.
After the two had enjoyed themselves, Mu Xueqi asked softly, "All done?"
Lu Ming rubbed his buttocks and said, "Of course."
If Mu Xueqi hadn't reported the situation in time tonight, and those family members had actually gone to the government building to block the entrance, he would have been the one in a passive position.
As she listened to Lu Ming's story, Mu Xueqi's mouth dropped open in astonishment, and her gaze toward Lu Ming became even more dazzling.
How can this guy's brain work so fast!
He came up with a solution in less than the time it takes to smoke a cigarette.
Not only did they completely appease the family members, but they also perfectly averted their impulse to block the door.
"But will the district government pay for it?"
Mu Xueqi was somewhat worried.
Lu Ming said confidently, "Don't worry, it's all settled."
Mu Xueqi was shocked again, and asked incredulously, "A deal was reached? How was it reached?"
Lu Ming smirked and asked, "Want to know?"
"Say it!"
"Give me a kiss and I'll tell you."
Mu Xueqi leaned in with her red lips and gave her a quick kiss.
Lu Ming shook his head with a wicked smile.
Mu Xueqi immediately understood what it meant, and felt that this guy was really wicked.
But in order to find out how Lu Ming solved it, she had no choice but to compromise and crawl into bed.
……
Although Lu Ming had successfully calmed the family members down, Ding Jian was still not entirely at ease.
So he sent someone to the city government early in the morning.
That way, if the family members do come, they can handle it immediately.
However, as it turned out, Lu Ming's reassurance was effective, and everything calmed down.
Li Ping arrived at the municipal government early and was puzzled to see that the main entrance was empty.
Where's the coffin?
What about the deceased's family?
Didn't we agree to block the door?
