Chapter 106 Three plus one (a reading card will be issued on Tuesday!)

Subtitle of this chapter: The way to climax, one picture (chapter) and one popular science.

Only Yuan Yanshu, Louis Baker, John McCall and Miss Helen Brown were left outside the crowd.

Of course, the three foreigners looked at Master Yuan with a little wrong look. Mr. Baker and Miss Brown were full of worries, while Mr. McCall naturally looked gloating.

He suddenly sighed and said, "Mr. Yuan, you don't have to make things like this because of fighting with me. Look at how you end now..."

"End?" Yuan Yan suddenly smiled slightly and interrupted him, "Mr. McCall, I remember you said you obtained a lawyer license from New York State?"

"Paris of Manhattan" was stunned when he heard this, nodded and said, "Yes, I was from Nyu Law School, and I came to Stern to study. Why do you still care about this at this time?"

"clatter!"

Our Master Yuan snapped his fingers and said, "That's right, you can start writing a contract."

The three little foreigners were shocked by these words at the same time, and said in a daze: "Hao,Hao,Contract?"

Yuan Yanshu said naturally: "Yes, you... it's okay for Miss Brown. You two are students from Stern Academy. Why don't you know that gambling must be abide by the basics... Well, it is stipulated by the law."

In fact, gambling really has a proper term in law, called the Shocking Contract.

shooting-luck-contract, also known as chance-contract, refers to a contract in which whether one party performs its obligations depends on the occurrence of accidental events.

The most common contract for shooting luck is various insurance policies signed by the insurer and the insurance company. In fact, both parties are betting.

Of course, generally speaking, the insured hopes that something will not happen, but he is not sure that something will not happen. For the sake of "insurance", he will take out a little money and hand it over to the insurance company. When something really happens, he will get a large amount of money from the latter to compensate for the losses caused to himself after it happens.

Futures are actually a safe-haven method like insurance. The buyer and seller signed a lucky contract to avoid future price fluctuations.

Not only are financial derivatives such as insurance and futures belong to this, but also various gambling activities, which can be considered lucky contracts.

Some people say that I play mahjong Landlord with my friend, or go to the casino to play, and there is no need to sign any documents. What is this called a lucky contract for shooting?

In fact, the prerequisite for your participation in such activities is to verbally make promises or default on the rules of these activities.

You may not necessarily agree to play Taiwanese mahjong. When you wait for someone to play Hu cards, you said, "Oh, why are you sixteen cards?"

You don’t necessarily play blackjack in the casino. After opening the card, you told the dealer that my card was obviously blackjack, so how could you lose to blackjack?

From a legal perspective, as long as it does not conflict with local laws, as a natural person with full civil capacity, when he clearly realizes and is completely voluntarily involved in gambling, the natural person promises an oral contract, which some countries call it "the promise of shooting luck". All the civil legal consequences arising from it are borne by the natural person.

In short, there are three requirements for a lucky contract: first, the parties to the contract, second, the subject matter of the contract, third, the parties to the contract express the true meaning of the contract. As long as these three requirements are met, let alone the difference between the votes of the US election, even throwing a coin to guess the front and back, it also means the establishment of this legal relationship.

So, of course, gambling requires a contract.

John McCall hesitated for a moment, why is this Chinese so confident? Does he have any insider information?

He immediately gave up this idea, it was impossible!

This is the national election, who can control it? Even if someone can control the presidential election, it is enough to win. Why win so much? Well, even if you win so much, where did this Chinese know?

The key is that the election is not over yet!

This guy is afraid he is sick, and he is very sick.

But he turned his head accidentally and saw Miss Brown staring at him angrily, and the jealousy in his heart surged.

Mr. McCall gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll write you a contract!"

Gambling requires not only a contract but also a...

Yuan Yan suddenly slapped his head and said, "By the way, we have to find a notary!"

Louis Baker suddenly said, "That, Neo. I'm the notary."

As a common law country, the US government does not have a notary office or a civil servant with such functions. Most of the notaries in the US are independent natural persons, and most of them are only part-time jobs.

And being a notary in the United States is even more incredible. For states with stricter regulations, such as applying for a notary in Washington State, you also need to obtain permission from a state senator.

However, in other states, such as the New York State where Master Yuan and others are located, there is no need to even permit the state senator. Over the age of 18, local residents, American citizens who can read and write English do not need any training or examination. Just fill out an application form and pay a handling fee of $3, and you can get a seal symbolizing "power in control" and a four-year appointment letter.

There are also some states that automatically become notarists once they obtain lawyer or law enforcement qualifications. They can register with the municipal government and perform their notarist duties.

In short, American dogs and cats can be used as notaries.

So what is the use of a notary in the United States? In fact, it is very useful. They can only prove that the signature on the legal document is the customer's handwritten signature. In other words, they are only responsible for the customer's signature, but they do not need to be responsible for the content of the document.

If there is any legal responsibility for the contents in the document, you need to find a signer. But if someone questioned the authenticity of the signature, you are looking for a notary.

However, notaries are indispensable in the United States. Many legal documents are not signed by the notary, and they will be considered invalid unless there is extremely strong evidence in court. Moreover, these strong evidence does not include handwriting identification, because the signatories have many reasons to argue that they do not know the content of the document when signing.

Yuan Yan was overjoyed and said happily: "Oh, that's a coincidence. By the way, why did you charge?"

"Fee?" said Mr. Baker, "only fifty cents."

It's really cheap.

"Okay. Lawyer, notary, then live together. Well..." He nodded, turned his head to Miss Brown and said, "Helen, just be my clerk,"

The young black-haired beauty said hesitantly: "Classic? But..."

Yuan Yan suddenly took out her wallet, took out the check of fifty dollars and said, "Don't do it! Look, this is your employment fee. You check the contract for me, register the name and record the amount."

Miss Brown, who was completely confused, took the check blankly and nodded blankly.

Our Master Yuan thought confidently, with these three people help me, why worry about not making big news?
