Chapter 143: Chapter 88 The First Resurrection Armor is Gone (Additional Chapter for Alliance Hierarch 108 Dream Youth)_4
```
Currently, there are 168 households in the two batches of lawsuits, with probably more than 30 households withdrawing.
The rest are watching and waiting, either not responding or saying they'll consider it.
Old Tang is also too lazy to run around anymore, so he's waiting. The cases involving Li Shuwei and his bunch are about to reach the court, and employees from the housing construction department and the bank's Zhang branch manager are calling him every day.
He hasn't blocked their numbers; he just hangs up whenever they call.
However, after letting them hang for so many days, it's about time to start talking.
Tang Fangjing is a bit rash just because he has a system, but he's not stupid. It's best if the houses can be delivered; if it's really impossible, then he'll have to take a step back and ask them to refund the homebuyers who have sued first.
Lu Xun once said that many people like to compromise,
If you feel the room is too dark and want to open a window, they definitely won't allow it. But if you propose tearing off the roof, they will come to a compromise and agree to open the window.
I sued to make them jointly responsible for delivering the houses, which of course they are not willing to do.
Bringing in a white knight is not easy now, the environment isn't the same as before.
But at this moment, if I suggest refunding the money to the homeowners who have sued, would they be willing?
Those who have money should pay, those with power should help out, and of all three parties, the weakest is surely the developer whose boss is already in prison.
That group still thinks they have hope to turn the tables, dreaming! The winds had changed when Li Shuwei was arrested.
If the construction department puts in the effort, it's clearly not just them putting in the effort for this isn't only their affair.
According to the Supreme Court's judicial interpretation, if a developer defaults, then the court can rule to terminate the housing purchase contract, and with the termination of the purchase contract, the loan contract is consequently voided. Everyone knows this.
Similarly, the Supreme Court has issued a new reply, "Reply of the Supreme People's Court on the Protection of the Rights of Consumers of Commercial Residential Buildings."
The core is only one: if the housing project fails and it's really impossible to deliver the houses, the priority of the claim for refund by the buyer exceeds the payment for construction work, exceeds the mortgage rights and exceeds other creditors' claims.

Bright District construction department, leadership office.
"Tang Fangjing still not answering calls? Have you contacted his clients?" the leader asked.
"I've contacted them, and the homeowners all say that they've entrusted the matter to the lawyer and told us to contact the lawyer," Wu Shunyou responded with frustration.
He was almost driven mad recently, with the leader instructing him to find a solution but without granting any authority – just telling him to talk with the other party – how was he supposed to solve it?
Hearing this, the leader also massaged his temples. If this actually went to court, they would become a national joke.
"Alright, you can go out now!"
As Wu Shunyou left the leader's office, he felt massively overwhelmed and also made a phone call on a whim.
"Hello, Tang Fangjing from Tengda Law Firm!"
In an instant, Wu Shunyou felt as if he had heard the voice of an angel...
A few minutes later, Wu Shunyou pushed open the door to the leader's office.
"Director Zhang, Tang Fangjing answered the call; he says, he says if it really isn't possible, after retrieving Li Shuwei's money, he will help coordinate to see if they can refund the money to the suing homeowners," he reported.
What? The leader stood up all at once. No need for court, no need to spend money?
Old Tang did not answer the bank's calls. On this level, the bank truly was in a weaker position, especially since Jingzhou Bank is just a local bank.
Besides, the bank has money. It's not certain that the developer will have enough, so the bank equally has to pay up.
Moreover, there must be something wrong with the leadership of the Tide Road branch.
Otherwise, why would they rashly transfer money directly to another account of the developer?
It couldn't simply be slippery fingers when making a transaction...
Finally, Old Tang took the initiative. The court was about to start coordinating, and at this moment, the Tide Road branch eventually received a call.
"Manager, they're doing this without consulting us?" Zhang, the branch manager, roared on the phone.

Yao Yuehua sighed. At this point, what was there to discuss or not discuss? The matter of the unauthorized lending indeed posed a significant problem.
"The key thing is," she continued, "the housing construction department already made it clear that I never instructed you to transfer the money into another account."
...
At the Guangming District Court, this time the deputy head personally stepped in to mediate.
The developers weren't notified; the court supervised the whole process. Whatever money needed to be recovered, they recovered, and only after reaching a result did they notify them. If they agreed, it would proceed by mediation.
If they didn't agree, then it would go by the court's judgment!
Whether it was a minor or major case, one needed a full understanding.
"Lawyer Tang," I believe it's unreasonable for our bank to take on 34% of the responsibility. Ultimately, it all comes down to the developers misappropriating funds, which led to the unfinished housing," she stated.
"There's no direct causal relationship between this issue and the bank's supervision. Your demand is genuinely unreasonable. I have never heard of a bank paying out for unfinished houses."
Yao Yuehua spoke to the person across from her, Tang Fangjing.
Old Tang didn't look at the bank but turned to the housing construction department side: "Thirty-four is a bit unreasonable. I think it's quite fair for the developer to take 60%, and the supervising bank 40%. What do you think?"
The deputy leader who came to participate nodded: "Indeed, the funds must be deposited into a supervised account as required by law, but the bank did not do this, so they definitely need to accept responsibility."
Yao Yuehua: "???"
But she did not know how to refute it, as the housing construction department had evidence; they had specifically sent a letter to the bank, requesting that the funds be transferred into the supervised account, but the bank did not listen.
"No matter how you look at it, the bank should not have to assume such responsibility, nor should it take on compensation liability simply because the supervisory responsibility was not fulfilled," Yao Yuehua asserted bluntly.
There was nothing the court could do either; this was just mediation and could not compel others by force.
The first mediation did not lead to a result. Yao Yuehua and President Zhang walked out of the court, only to hear a voice behind them.
"Hello, is this the Discipline Inspection Team of the Handong Province Financial Supervision and Administration Bureau? Yes, I would like to report something..."
President Zhang and Yao Yuehua turned their heads toward Tang Fangjing, their faces a mix of confusion and then anger.
This is outrageous; it's completely unsportsmanlike!
Yao Yuehua glared coldly at Tang Fangjing: "What exactly are you trying to do?"
Old Tang's face was full of smiles: "I'm not trying to do anything. When someone does something wrong, it's perfectly normal for me to report it. What, you see a problem with that?"
If they were unwilling, then we would find others who were willing.
President Zhang and Yao Yuehua left with stern faces, and the others stayed far away from Old Tang.
This man must be crazy, he must really be out of his mind...
Twenty minutes later, Wang Yanlong put down his phone, looked at Lv Yazhen in front of him, his face very unpleasant, "Someone just told me, Tang Fangjing, he's already prepared for mediation!"
"The money that's recovered will be refunded to the homeowners directly under the court's supervision. He's trying to dig at our roots!"
"He's already gone this far, and we're just sitting here waiting? Now all the problems are caused by this Tang person!"
"Say something, for God's sake, what should we do!"
...
By evening, Old Tang emerged from the Financial Supervision and Administration Bureau. He had just delivered an official whistleblowing report there. Saying he had to report you, not even a day's delay was acceptable!
The light turned green. Old Tang was ready to cross the road to hail a cab, but just as he reached the middle, a dump truck came speeding along with the intense sound of brakes screeching!
But it was already too late. Old Tang was flung into the air, tumbling down hard on the ground like a broken sack.
It didn't hurt, but there was only one feeling: damn! He had been hit out of his first Resurrection Armor...
The driver of the dump truck was stupefied, and some shaken passersby began to call the police and ambulance...
At Tengda Law Firm, Old Song was working overtime when suddenly his phone rang.
"Hello? What? Which hospital? I'll be right there!"
