Contract law Kajai is a coffee shop owner who hired a long dishwasher and borrowed it at a coffee shop for $ 10 a week. In January 1991, local councils started a large-scale road project outside the cafe, access to the cafe became difficult, and Kajai's business was seriously affected. At the request of Kajai, Long agreed to lower the rent to 1 dollar a week for 3 months. By the end of 3 months road construction has been completed, but Kajai's cafe needs to be renovated now for all dust generated by road construction.
In March 1999, China's contract law finally passed the "contract law". This law replaces the previous three laws. "Economic Contract Law" (including contracts among domestic companies but excluding individuals), foreign economic contract law (including contracts with foreigners) and technical contract law. As a license (including technology transfer etc.) "Contract Law" generally follows international practice, as with many other Chinese regulations, subject matter of problem area is fewer than its subject.

Included in this heritage is a lawyer kit that has been developing for centuries for decades. Several legal areas such as contract law are deeply rooted in ancient and medieval laws. The legal system and concept that emerged long ago is still an essential part of the modern lawyer's toolkit in many cases. In addition, the way lawyers are practicing is still very relevant to the past. Older and thick books (now mostly replaced by legal information databases) and court robes and wigs are still often associated with our images. This is because the lawyer's work has not changed so much yet. It concerns human interpretation of traditional paper-based rules and the application of general, sometimes undocumented principles.
