Chapter 773 [Choose the treasure]

Mr. Huang, the private legal counsel of the Li family, couldn't stand it anymore and shook his head secretly...

The common law system, also known as the Anglo-American legal system. In comparison, the legal system of China is more inclined to the "continental legal system" (this does not refer to the mainland, but is the name of a legal system). The characteristic of the mainland legal system is that it has written codes, especially the "French Civil Code", "Napoleon Criminal Code", "German Civil Code" and so on; the advantage is that there are relatively systematic laws, the disadvantage is that the legal amendment and the re-enactment cycle is too long. To put it bluntly, it is not enough to "keep up with the times"; no matter how detailed the written law is, it is inevitable that there will be something that cannot be taken into account, which has caused the judges to have too much discretion and affect the establishment of the real rule of law.

The common law system mainly focuses on precedents, supplemented by some single regulations. In common law countries, precedents with legal effect can guide and decide the judges or juries to judge cases. As more and more precedents, the law is becoming more and more perfect. This is also the origin of the name "common law", which means that it is not established by the legislative body, but a kind of law spontaneously formed with the accumulation of civil precedents. Because these laws were created by the people, they are "common".

Compared with the two, the common law system is more ‘**’, so the rule of law in common law countries is usually relatively complete. At present, some countries that belong to the mainland law system, such as France and Germany, have begun to transform into the common law system, and have begun to respect precedents and public opinion. However, China seems to have not yet realized this.

But the main reason is that common law is difficult to learn. The rule of law in Hong Kong is not long. Judges and juries often cite British precepts, some of which are even two or three hundred years ago. Students majoring in common law have a lot of energy to spend on this. To be honest, it would be great to have a preliminary contact with these precepts in four years and understand them for three or four points. After all, there are still a lot of single-line regulations to learn. Zhou Yi said that it only took a week to finish the review, so it is no wonder that Li Chaoren and Mr. Huang would regard him as monsters.

"In the process of learning common law, there are a lot of precedents to read and remember, and some are in ancient English, and a week..."

When Li Chaoren looked at this cousin-in-law who often created miracles, he was really a little confused. If someone else said this, he must have laughed, but since it was Zhou Yi, it would be very likely.

"Let me give it a try..." Zhou Yi smiled.

Li Chaoren hesitated for a moment and said, "This matter is a bit difficult. Let's do it. I can help you contact Sir Han, the president of Xiangjiang University, but... are you really sure?"

"Cousin, please rest assured. Since I said that, I will be more confident." Zhou Yixin said, in fact, I am 100% sure, but no one believes this.

"Okay, I believe you." Li Chaoren nodded with a smile: "When I make an appointment with Sir Han, you can visit him with me, I hope you can convince him to change the rules for you."

"It's a must..." Zhou Yi smiled.

Han Yueqing is a baron. Although his name looks very similar to that of a Chinese, he is actually a native British man with all the advantages and disadvantages of the British: he has a gentlemanly demeanor, introverted surname, alcoholic, easy to be impulsive after watching football, and has a heartfelt love for beauties, but this love does not last long and can only last for one month at most.

Among the Commonwealth nobles, he belonged to the "mixed-blooded mixed species" in some people. This is because he has one-half of Chinese blood, one-quarter of Latin blood and one-quarter of Welsh blood, which makes him look a bit weird, with black hair, blue eyes, and yellow skin, like a bloody yellow stool.

Perhaps for this reason, he valued mixed-race children very much, but he had a bone-marrow bias against people with pure blood. For example, Zhou Yi, a Chinese young man with pure blood, was very disliked by him. He was not even prepared to give Zhou Yi a seat, but just greeted his old friend Li Chaoren to sit down.

Zhou Yi knew that you must be more awesome to such a great character than him, so he found a seat to sit down without waiting for him to greet him, and then looked at Han Yueqing with a smile without saying a word.

His rude look made Han Yueqing frown his carefully decorated eyebrows: "Li Chaoren, is this the 'genius' young man you are talking about? I think he seems to need a ritual class."

"My Baron, geniuses are often eccentric, which is not surprising." Li Chaoren laughed and said in a more acceptable tone of Han Yueqing: "It was him who saved my mother's life. You know, my mother's illness was so many times that Chinese and foreign miracle doctors could not help, but he cured it." Zhou Yi and Liu Xu did not invite relatives and friends at the wedding banquet in Xiangjiang, and Han Yueqing had never been to the table. Li Chaoren did not want to show his relationship with Zhou Yi, which would often make things more troublesome, especially for Han Yueqing, who is self-righteous and noble in the Jin Dynasty.

"Haha, this doesn't mean anything. African witch doctors can also cure some strange diseases by accident and then be spread as miraculous doctors. Will we believe that they are all geniuses?"

Han Yueqing laughed disdainfully and looked at Zhou Yi with contempt: "Besides, even if he is a good doctor, it has nothing to do with studying law... Li Chaoren, are you sure he will have to complete the llb course in a week? Haha, is this wrong? Or did I hear it wrong?"

Li Chaoren smiled and shook his head: "President Han, I know that Xiangjiang University has its own internal examination system, which is specially used for geniuses. You might as well take the exam for him." With Li Chaoren's cultivation, he didn't call him the Baron to be the president, which was a little angry. Han Yueqing was a bit too much. She sarcastically mocked Zhou Yi in person, and was also disrespectful to him. Looking at Hong Kong Island, those who dared to disrespect him seemed to be very good-looking.

"Okay, maybe I've seen too many so-called geniuses recently, so I'm a little disgusted with these geniuses. Li Chaoren, I hope you don't mind."

Perhaps because he felt the displeasure of Li Chaoren, Han Yueqing hurriedly remedy it. Although he was not afraid of Li Chaoren, he was unwilling to offend this super rich man who could rank within 100 in the world. Han Yueqing knew that Li Chaoren had a son and nephew who was unfortunately hit by a stray bullet from the Zhengmao Army in a small African country. He was furious and directly smashed hundreds of millions and organized more than 300 mercenaries, overthrew the small country's political axe, and controlled the local gold mines. This big move shocked Hong Kong Island at that time, and even the CIA was said to be looking at it.

The rich old man couldn't afford to be injured, Han Yueqing was a little nervous. He quickly got up and took a thick English book on the bookshelf and handed it to Zhou Yi and said, "Since it was Li Chaoren who said it, I will test you. This book recorded in ancient English lists criminal cases with representative surnames that occurred in various parts of the UK from 1920 to 2000. As a genius who is preparing to take a break from llb and boasts that he will take a complete course within a week, you should have a certain understanding of ancient English, right? I don't ask you to memorize the cases. I only need you to understand the three cases in this book within half an hour, and then I will ask you questions, okay?"

"No need, I'd better remember it directly." Zhou Yi smiled and took the book and began to read it.

Of course he hasn't learned any ancient English, but with his strong spiritual power, he can record every English letter in an instant. No matter what content you have, my buddy will memorize it all, so you can pass the test, right?

Seeing Zhou Yi quickly flipping through this book as thick as a brick, Li Chaoren raised his eyebrows. After all, it was ancient English, and Zhou Yi was sure of it? Even if he was an ancient English expert, he shouldn't read it so quickly. Could it be that he could remember it?

Han Yueqing sneered slightly, snapped her fingers leisurely, and asked the housekeeper to bring him and Li Chaoren two cups of strong coffee. While carefully savoring the aroma of the coffee and the stimulation brought by caffeine, he carefully observed Zhou Yi. Soon he came to a conclusion: "This is a king of big talk, and his big talk actually deceived Li Chaoren, the old world."

No one can read an ancient English book like this, unless he is a person living in the 19th century and must be a nobleman. You should know that even the farmers of that era did not understand pure ancient English because it was the language of the nobles. Common people are only worthy of learning some country slang, which is just like the classical Chinese in ancient China. Can you expect the common people in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to understand this language? How could the scholars and officials feel?

Han Yueqing even didn't believe that Zhou Yi could recite the contents of this book by memorizing letters alive. He had never seen anyone with this memory. Even the most genius in the legend and the youngest royal lawyer in the Commonwealth did not have this ability. He is now waiting for this king of saints to make a fool of himself, which should be a very happy thing.

"I can remember these letters, as for the pronunciation..." Zhou Yi could certainly see the contempt in Han Yueqing's eyes. He was ready to shake the arrogant jazz. Fortunately, he was prepared. Before coming here, Zhou Yi went to the Xiangjiang Ancient English Research Institute and consulted several experts. With his wisdom, as long as he mastered a few vowel letters and combined with forced memory, pronunciation was not a problem at all.

"Okay, Principal Lin, you can start the exam." Zhou Yi smiled and handed back the book: "But time hastily, I only remember the content of the first hundred pages. You can take the exam for me within this range."

"I remember the content of a hundred pages!" Han Yueqing's hand shook, and the coffee almost splashed on the clothes. She felt salty in her mouth, but she accidentally bit her tongue: "You can't just read it in a blink of an eye, right? My question is deep."

"That's not. I'm reciting it completely, that is, I've memorized every word." Zhou Yi smiled and shrugged his shoulders, which was very British.

"This is impossible!" Han Yueqing shook his hand. The whole cup of coffee was not wasted at all, and it all splashed on his feet. This is a big 16-page book, and the font is small. There are no less than two thousand words per page! What is the number of words a hundred pages? This young man has read it for less than half an hour and dares to say that he memorizes them all? It is impossible, even an ancient English expert, because no one has such a terrifying memory.

"Haha, Sir Han, don't say it's impossible, you'll know it once you take the exam." Li Chaoren laughed happily. He could see that Zhou Yi shouldn't tell lies, and no fool would say such lies.

"The capable ones are really omnipotent. My cousin-in-law of the Li family is indeed a superman!" Li Chaoren glanced at Han Yueqing, feeling very unsatisfied.

"Okay, I'll test you. Page 12, starting from the 36th line on the left, please recite it!" Han Yueqing didn't care about scrubbing his feet. Is this young man a real genius or a big talk king? I will know after the exam.

Zhou Yi felt relieved. He just relied on his memory to remember. If Han Yueqing didn't memorize the rote exam but took the legal principles in these precedents, then he would really be blind. However, if he took the exam this way, he would not be afraid until tomorrow morning!

“…………….” (Sorry, I can’t speak Old English even if it’s light and dark)

Zhou Yi began to recite proficiently. Listening to his recitation, Han Yueqing widened his eyes, his face gradually began to turn white, and his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly: "Stop! Page 98, start from the seventy-seventh line on the right..."

“…………”

"Click!" The thick book slid from Han Yueqing's hand to the ground, but he didn't realize it. Genius, this is a real genius!

I have picked up the treasure!
