Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Selling a house sends the entire real estate agency to jail?
In the past, these viewers would usually be dazzled by her outfit, their comments turning lewd. But now... they seemed to have lost all interest in her.
That man? Could it be Qin Mu? As she watched the barrage of comments, like a tidal wave, she blinked. She figured only *that* man could make this pack of wolves lose interest in her!
Moreover, that UP named Qin Mu hadn’t posted any updates for twelve days! During this time, the most frequent question in her stream chat was about when Qin Mu would update. Some viewers had even gone completely mad, suggesting she use her charms to prompt him to post a new video, not worried at all that she might be taken advantage of.
Filled with curiosity, she clicked on her personal account and found her list of followed accounts, locating Qin Mu’s account. Sure enough, he had posted a new video over ten minutes ago. The video title was: "I Just Wanted to Sell a House, but the Other Party Ended Up Compensating Me with One."
Selling a house? Qing Lan was momentarily taken aback and was about to play the video when, in the stream chat, viewers began frantically posting comments:
"Warning: Intense content ahead! Sister Lan, if you’re not psychologically prepared, I suggest not opening it!"
"Hey, the UP posted a new video! I’m just not gonna click it—call it emergency risk aversion!"
"Just a friendly reminder: although the UP has been off the grid for twelve days, don’t forget his brutal track record!"
"Sister Lan, got your fast-acting heart pills handy? This video might be more intense than your 0-18 game!"
The flood of comments continued.
Looking at these increasingly absurd comments, Qing Lan’s pretty face flushed red. These people were really dredging up her most embarrassing moments. That disastrous game playing Zed yesterday had nearly driven her offline.
It’s just sending a few more people to jail, right? How intense could it be?
she pouted and mumbled, then played the fifteen-minute video.At the beginning of the video, the UP explained his reason for not updating. He encountered a shady real estate agent while selling a house? she frowned thoughtfully.
In fact, as the domestic economy had developed over the years, housing prices had soared. This, in turn, led to new and second-hand housing transactions becoming even more frequent. Additionally, for office workers, dealing with agents was almost unavoidable. Whether buying, selling, renting, or leasing, they needed agents to mediate. She herself had friends who had been swindled out of several thousand yuan in rent by shady agents. There was no getting it back. Even if they could sue, the hassle of gathering evidence, enduring litigation, and hiring lawyers was too much, so many chose to swallow their anger and suffer in silence. There were definitely many people like that.
When she had just graduated, she too had been conned out of a month’s deposit by a shady agent. Thinking the amount was small and a lawsuit too troublesome, she had let it go. But, based on what she knew from Qin Mu’s previous videos, he would never suffer in silence.
And in the video, Qin Mu soon shared his approach: despite knowing he was dealing with a shady agent, he firmly signed the contract. Then, he took the other party to court. He also detailed the "tripartite fault attribution" model for contracts in the video. If a breach occurred, it wasn’t as simple as determining penalties based on the contractual terms of the breach. It was necessary to conduct a tripartite fault attribution, assign responsibilities, and ultimately determine who bore the primary responsibility.
This play... it’s genius! Her eyes widened in amazement. If it weren’t for Qin Mu’s video, she would have had no idea that contracts offered protection through a tripartite fault attribution model.
Right after that, the lawsuit, the court’s acceptance letter, the case filing approval statement, and the hearing date were all displayed in the video. This shady agent really picked the wrong person to mess with by running into Qin Mu, she thought. Combining the video’s title with the information so far, she could roughly guess the outcome. Seven days later, at the court hearing, the shady broker definitely lost the case and was ordered to pay huge compensation.
However, the stream chat exploded again:
"Sister Lan, you’re still too naive! Sending only one person to jail? That’s not the UP’s style at all!"
"His last video got six scammers locked up! Are you doubting the UP’s capabilities?"
"I bet if this shady broker could do it over, they’d never dare take the UP’s housing listing!"
"Moment of silence for this shady broker... Hope the judgment results the UP posts tomorrow are even more explosive!"
More comments poured in.
In the stream chat, the number of comments was more than three times the usual. Qing Lan, watching these comments, grew even more curious about what came next in the video. Sending the shady broker to jail and getting a house as compensation was already outrageous. Could there be anything even more outrageous than that?
Eight minutes later, she had watched the entire video. She couldn’t help but swallow hard, her face filled with astonishment. There really *is* something even more outrageous...
In the latter half of the video, besides the shady broker losing the case and being ordered to pay compensation, the procuratorate also got involved. They conducted a comprehensive investigation into the broker and their parent company. Moreover, they initiated a public prosecution, with the trial set for the next day. This means... it’s highly likely that the entire upper management and core personnel of the company are going to jail!
Previously, she could never have imagined that selling a property could result in sending an entire brokerage company to jail! And in the video, Qin Mu still maintained an innocent, somewhat helpless expression that was extremely punchable.
How many people are going to jail because of this? She let out a wry smile and shook her head. Then, she silently liked the video, tipped it with a coin, and left a comment, completing the customary "triple action."
In the video’s comments section, just like before, were phrases like, "The weather is nice today." It seemed to have become a custom for no one to discuss the actual video content there.
Back in her own stream chat, viewers were saying:
"The UP didn’t expose the name of this agency, so we can’t find it, but an agency like that must have at least dozens of people."
"I actually thought the UP had exhausted his talent and faded from the scene. Who’d have expected him to drop a royal flush!"
"Too bad! Sister Lan actually went ahead and liked, tipped with a coin, and commented. Now she’s safe from ’going in’!"
"The old saying is true, ’big chests, no brains,’ it didn’t lie to us! Sister Lan actually used her brain this time!"
"Next time, guys, don’t remind her..."
In her stream chat, the tone of the comments turned sarcastic again. Qing Lan watched them, feeling quite irritated. Other streamers’ viewers would show kind concern, asking if their streamer was tired or needed a break. But her viewers... they were always scheming to get *her* "sent in"!
「Qianzhou.」
In an ordinary residential complex, at one o’clock in the morning, Ma Ming had just finished playing games and was about to go to sleep.
Suddenly, he noticed that an UP he followed had released a new video. Upon opening it, he found it was a new release by Qin Mu, who hadn’t updated in twelve days. The video’s content was immensely satisfying: selling a house led to dealing with a shady broker, and in retaliation, Qin Mu had gotten the broker’s entire company sent to jail!
Well done!
After watching it, he felt exhilarated, all his drowsiness swept away. As a working stiff, his apartment was actually rented. He was on a "pay three months’ rent in advance, plus one month’s deposit" lease. His one-year lease had just ended, and he planned to move to a place closer to work. But... the "landlord" kept making excuses, refusing to return his 2,000 yuan deposit. This "landlord" was actually a sub-letter, in other words, an agent.
