Chapter 103 Contract for Fairness (Part 2)

For the "General Affairs Department", many cases will not be tried publicly, especially... those cases of rebellion against Liyue.

The reasons for these people's collusion with the enemy are varied, but they all come down to one point: they are dissatisfied with Liyue, and the development of Liyue has not been in line with their wishes.

But in the eleven years that Moyu has lived in Liyue, in order to develop the market for trauma medicine, he has asked questions to the miners of the "Black Rock Factory" and the men who work as laborers at the Liyue dock.

Most of them are very satisfied with the current situation, and even those who are dissatisfied... still believe that the Seven Stars can improve little by little. They can wait, because they have hope.

They are people who work hard to live, so... they feel that there is hope in life.

Because they often have to contact the market, Moyu has also seen many bankrupt businessmen, but they only started from raising funds to investigate the market.

Although they are one step behind in the business world, they still believe in the Rock King Emperor and believe that this commercial city can bring them a chance for rebirth.

They are also people who work hard and feel that the future is worth looking forward to.

As for the end... those who work for shops or other people get good welfare benefits under the constraints of strong laws.

Such an experience made Mo Yu feel for a time... Liyue is really a very suitable place for survival and development. No matter what kind of person you are... as long as you have a skill, you can find your own home here.

As the largest commercial port in Teyvat, scholars do not need to take off their long gowns here, because there are enough private schools and children who need education, because there are enough merchants here, as long as you want, you can always find a suitable partner.

When your labor force is deliberately devalued here... the "General Affairs Department" and strong laws can give you enough fairness and protection.

This is Liyue, an absolutely all-encompassing city.

Mo Yu really can't figure out where Liyue has let them down.

At this time, the Qianyan Army guarding the door of the interrogation room also came up, saluted Mo Yu, and asked respectfully: "Lord Mo Yu, do you want to... listen in?"

Mo Yu nodded gently, and then asked: "Is the case being tried now the case of Cui San's treason and malicious competition?"

"Yes." The Qianyan Army answered while opening the door in front of him, "Please come in."

Mo Yu nodded slightly, then walked into the interrogation room, looking at Cui San who was being held on the left and right by two Qianyan Army soldiers, Mo Yu shook his head gently, and then sat in the audience seat on the side.

Yan Fei looked at the thick legal code in her hand and said word by word: "In summary, the prosecutor Cui San forced others to sign unequal contracts, used coercion to disrupt market competition, colluded with external forces, and attempted to subvert the Liyue economic system."

"The above crimes violate Article 321 of the Liyue Market Management Law, Article 23 of the Liyue Business General Principles, Article 22 of the Liyue Law General Principles, and Article 3 of the Liyue Contract Management Law. The crimes are extremely serious and unforgivable. I hope the judge will make a fair judgment."

The judge sitting on the high court nodded slightly, then looked at Cui San who was detained by the Qianyan Army and asked sternly: "Cui San?! Do you have anything else to say?"

The questioned Cui San fell into silence, and then laughed sinisterly.

"Hahaha...Lawyer Yan Fei...You said I collaborated with the enemy to subvert Liyue's economy, I admit it, because I do have connections with the "Fools", but you said I "forced others to sign unequal contracts" and you said I "disrupted market competition"...? What does this have to do with me?!"

Yan Fei shook her head and said, "If you want to try to reduce your punishment, this alone is already unforgivable, not to mention...Today, the family you persecuted also appeared in court to testify."

After saying this, Yan Fei raised her head and looked at the judge. Under Cui San's cannibalistic gaze, she calmly said, "Judge, you can ask witness Yao Shuxiang to appear in court."

The judge immediately made a decision, "Please ask witness Yao Shuxiang to appear in court."

A moment later, Yao Shuxiang walked out surrounded by three Qianyan soldiers.

Mo Yu raised his eyebrows when he saw this scene. This process seemed different from what he remembered.

In theory, the witness needs to sit in the witness stand at the beginning, but this time he didn't... Is there any particularity in this?

After Yao Shuxiang sat down, Yan Fei said: "Because Cui San used the "Fools" to kill Yao Shuxiang's father and son, considering Cui San's harm to Liyue society, the witness was not allowed to appear in court according to the established procedures. This is to ensure the safety of the witness."

The judge nodded, then looked at Yao Shuxiang and asked him softly: "Mr. Yao, please speak."

So Yao Shuxiang, under the gaze of Yan Fei and the judge, reiterated the content of his conversation with Mo Yu in his shop, but... this time he was facing his enemy directly, and his emotions were a little excited.

"If it weren't for Lord Mo Yu of "Yao Guangxing" who saw me on the roadside, if it weren't for Lord Mo Yu protecting me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to sit here today! You lowly thing!"

Seeing that Yao Shuxiang's emotions were getting more and more excited, and even had a tendency to lose control, the judge immediately made a decision and said: "Silence!"

When the noise in the interrogation room gradually subsided, the judge continued to ask: "Cui San, do you accept Yao Shuxiang's accusation?"

"Hehehe... Obviously we just used the same method, why is he the victim, and I... am the perpetrator?!" Cui San roared.

"It was obviously him who spread rumors about me in the streets a year ago, causing my customers to become fewer and fewer. Why is he pitied and taken care of by Qixing, while I should rot in the mud?!"

"This is not fair at all!!"

Hearing this, Yan Fei slowly stood up and asked in a neither light nor heavy voice: "Then... do you have evidence?"

"What evidence?! I am standing here now as evidence!"

Yan Fei sneered and took out an evidence bag verified by the "General Affairs Department". After waving it in his hand, he said: "Since you were arrested yesterday, your original shop and your home have been searched thoroughly. What's in here... is the account book of your transactions."

"According to what you said, the order account book from a year ago is also in it. It records the source of the goods you purchased and the corresponding manufacturers. "

"Not to mention that the factory that produced these in Fontaine was completely liquidated by the "Northern Bank" three months ago due to debt disputes, not to mention that these goods are just low-priced and low-quality products in the eyes of most Liyue people..."

"And you later bought a lot of packaging boxes from those big orderers...that is, Yao Shuxiang's purchase point...packaged these things and sold them fraudulently. You say...the goods are not the same as the ones on the bill, will anyone go to you?"

"You just said...Yao Shuxiang spread rumors in the market, do you have evidence? But now, I have evidence of your fraud in my hand."

Yan Fei asked lightly:

"At this point...are you still struggling?"
