Li Xiulan
"Since everyone is willing to negotiate, let's all go to the county traffic police department now, and under the witness of the traffic police comrades, negotiate the compensation amount. What do you all think?"
Zhou Wenbing shouted, with sincerity on his face.
"Can't we negotiate right here? Do we really have to make a long trip to the county town? So troublesome!"
A villager immediately voiced objection.
Zhou Wenbing patiently said:
"Although most of the fellow villagers are surely honest and kind good people, we cannot rule out that there are bad people who break their promises among them. To avoid unnecessary disputes, it's better to negotiate the compensation amount under the witness of the traffic police comrades! Rest assured, Miss Du will hire several minivans to take you to the county town, you don't need to pay the fare. After the negotiation, she will thoughtfully send you all back to Shanggou Village!"
Even though Zhou Wenbing said all this, some villagers were still unwilling to go.
"There's still work to do at home. Going back and forth like this, a whole day would be gone!"
Du Xiaojuan stood up at this time and said:
"Those willing to go to the county traffic police brigade to negotiate, each family gets a subsidy of 100 yuan! Those unwilling to go to the county traffic police brigade to negotiate, then just wait here properly. Wait for the court judgment afterward. However much compensation is required, I will pay however much!"
"If it's a court judgment, when would that be?"
Yang Jiahao muttered.
Du Xiaojuan sneered:
"Who knows that? With so many dead and injured, going through all the procedures, it would take at least a year or two!"
After Du Xiaojuan said this, the villagers who were originally hesitant finally made up their minds.
All family members of the deceased and injured were willing to follow Du Xiaojuan and Zhou Wenbing to the county traffic police brigade to negotiate.
Du Xiaojuan hired three minivans, only to find they couldn't even fit everyone!
Fortunately, Wang Erhai returned from Baiyun Airport at this time. With Wang Erhai's car, plus Du Xiaojuan's car which could still carry three people, they barely managed to load everyone and head to the county traffic police brigade together.
A large crowd of people got off the cars and walked into the traffic police brigade.
The traffic police, seeing this scene, were all startled.
They hurriedly went to ask what they were there for.
After Du Xiaojuan explained the purpose, the traffic police finally suddenly realized.
Then they led everyone into the traffic police hall to conduct the negotiation.
"Traffic police comrade, can the negotiation process be filmed?"
The traffic police nodded:
"Of course!"
Du Xiaojuan then took out a camera, set up the position, and began recording.
Then she spoke to the villagers:
"I don't want to manage or care about how much the truck driver compensates you. What I care about is that after my side pays you money, you cannot pursue my husband's responsibility anymore! You have no objection to this, right?"
"As long as the compensation is in place, we naturally won't pursue responsibility anymore. We're just afraid the compensation won't be in place!" Yang Jiahao said.
He came back this time just to get the compensation money. As for his father Yang Xiaocai's death, he actually didn't care much. He even felt that Yang Xiaocai dying was a good thing for him, at least he wouldn't be a burden anymore.
However, other villagers didn't think so:
"Not only must the compensation be in place, but Wang Dashan must also come to apologize to us! No apology, no deal!"
These villagers demanding apology had a relatively good relationship with the deceased and injured family members, so naturally it wasn't as simple as just wanting money; an apology was also indispensable.
Du Xiaojuan said at this time:
"Apology is fine! After the insurance claim is settled, I'll have my husband personally visit you door to door to apologize. How about that?"
Everyone looked at each other.
Du Xiaojuan said again:
"If I have my husband go apologize to you but not discuss compensation, I'm afraid you wouldn't be willing either. So I decided to first agree on compensation with you, and then have him go apologize!"
After Du Xiaojuan said this, everyone felt she was quite sincere.
So they nodded one after another, and then someone asked:
"Then how much do you plan to compensate?"
Du Xiaojuan glanced at Zhou Wenbing. Zhou Wenbing immediately understood and stood up to say:
"Elders and fellow villagers, because my agent Wang Dashan only needs to bear 30% secondary responsibility in this traffic accident, let's not quibble over all those rules and regulations. This negotiation is mainly to let everyone get the compensation money as soon as possible. So our side offers a flat price. Our side, no matter how much compensation you can get from the truck driver, we only talk about ours! For the injured, we compensate 100,000 each. For the deceased, we compensate 200,000 each. How about it?"
A large group of people looked at each other.
Some accepted, some hesitated, some felt it was too little.
Du Xiaojuan was also stunned.
She had previously told Zhou Wenbing that the injured should get 200,000 and the deceased 350,000.
Unexpectedly, when Zhou Wenbing spoke, the injured actually only got 100,000 and the deceased only 200,000.
Zhou Wenbing said again at this time:
"You must not feel it's too little. After all, our Mr. Wang Dashan only needs to bear 30% responsibility. If compensation is handled according to our side's ratio, each injured person can receive a total compensation of 333,000 yuan, and each deceased person's family can receive a total compensation of 666,000 yuan. That's not too little!"
After Zhou Wenbing said this, even those who were originally hesitant could accept it.
Those who felt it was too little began to hesitate instead.
Thinking about it carefully, it indeed wasn't too little.
For rural elderly people who die in car accidents, the compensation is usually only two or three hundred thousand yuan!
Rarely exceeding 400,000!
They bear only 30% responsibility, yet pay 200,000 — that's already very sincere!
Zhou Wenbing then said:
"Additionally, I need to state one thing here: this negotiation is a Full and Final Settlement! There will be no further follow-up! If the injured party's Family Member accepts our Compensation Agreement now, then subsequent treatment costs will no longer be borne by us!"
Family Members of those not seriously injured naturally agreed to this Compensation Agreement.
But those seriously injured had no choice but to Hesitate.
They actually didn't know how much the subsequent treatment costs would be.
Zhou Wenbing then said:
"I urge you all to accept this Compensation Agreement, especially the Family Members of the seriously injured, after all everyone is Rural People, with Not Much Money on hand. Hurry and take this Compensation money, only then can you Prolong Life for your family. As for subsequent treatment costs, you can go ask the Freight Truck Driver to bear them — the Driver bought Insurance, and Insurance will give you money, but the Insurance process takes time, and the seriously injured probably can't wait that long."
After Zhou Wenbing said this, everyone felt it was Reasonable.
Zhou Wenbing saw that the village elders were comparatively easy to talk to, with no making trouble, and his hanging heart relaxed.
This was the reason for coming to the Traffic Police brigade to negotiate.
On the Traffic Police brigade's side, no one dared to cause trouble.
But if negotiating privately in Shanggou Village, who could say?
At this moment Zhou Wenbing took out two stacks of Compensation Agreement books and said to everyone:
"I have prepared the Compensation books here. If everyone has No problem, come Sign! Injured party Family Members sign on my left hand side, deceased Family Members sign on my right hand side! We Promise, as long as you sign today, the Compensation money will be transferred into your designated Bank Account today!"
After Zhou Wenbing said this, someone started coming to Sign.
Especially Yang Jiahao and Zhang Jiajun, who were extremely eager.
Take the money here first!
As for Compensation from the Freight Truck Driver's side, go ask the Driver for it later!
