Seeker of Teyvat

This type of classification can further subdivide Yebo stones and better distinguish prices.

"After signing the contract, Businessman B paid half of the payment in advance. I delivered the goods three days ago, but Businessman B refused to continue paying the balance."

"Sir, I have finished my statement."

After finishing speaking, Businessman A took a step back and shut up.

The official from the General Affairs Department nodded slightly and recorded what Businessman A said. Then he looked at Businessman B aside.

"Businessman B, now it's up to you to state the case. Please be careful not to lie, exaggerate, or make false accusations."

Businessman B nodded and took a step forward.

"Merchant B, born in Qingce Village, came to Liyue Harbor in February this year to do business. He is engaged in the trade of specialty minerals between Liyue and Mondstadt, but has not opened a store."

He also first introduced his identity, origin, and employment information.

"Three months ago, I went to Merchant A's shop in the dock market and saw that the samples in his shop were very good. So after asking about the price, I placed an order for a total of 1000 kilograms at a price of 120 molars per kilogram. The total price of Yepo Stone is 12 molad, and the quality is low-grade and low-grade."

At this point, there is no difference between the two businessmen's statements. They are both observing samples and placing orders for goods.

"After signing the contract, I paid half of the payment in advance. Three days ago, Merchant A delivered the goods. After inspection, I found that the goods were inconsistent with the previous samples, so I refused to continue the transaction and asked Merchant A to return the payment and compensate me. !”

"Sir, I have finished my statement."

The General Affairs Department official nodded, and then looked at the General Affairs Department officer beside him: "Have you brought a copy of the contract they signed?"

In Liyue's business activities, if the transaction amount reaches a figure of 12 molas, it is natural to pay taxes, and to pay taxes, the General Affairs Department will have a corresponding copy of the contract.

The director of the General Affairs Department nodded, pulled out a copy of the contract from the documents beside him, and handed it to the General Affairs Department official.

I read the contents of the contract carefully,

Time passed little by little, and there was still no one making any noise in the lobby. Everyone was waiting for the officials from the General Affairs Department to read the contract.

Nearly ten minutes later,

"Next, I will ask the questions, and you will answer. No lies, no exaggerations, no false accusations. Do you understand?"

"Understood, sir." *2

The General Affairs Department official nodded, still looking cold and indifferent:

"Businessman A, the Yepo stone you sell is artificially synthesized, and the materials used are Yepo stone chips processed in the mine, yes or no?"

Businessman A nodded: "Yes, sir, this is specially marked on the contract."

The official from the General Affairs Department nodded, then looked at the other person and said, "Mr. B, did you read the contract carefully when you signed it?"

Merchant B looked pale: "It was very late and I was in a hurry to go home..."

"Businessman B, please answer directly. Have you read the contract carefully?" An official from the General Affairs Department interrupted Businessman B's defense.

"No, no." Businessman B looked pale.

The official of the General Affairs Department was indifferent: "The contract is the foundation of Liyue. No matter what kind of transaction it is, once the contract is signed, it cannot be violated. If you break your promise, you will be punished. This is the legal principle taught to Liyue by the emperor. Do you agree?"

Merchant B shivered all over: "I... admit it."

He didn't respect the contract. For this reason alone, no matter what excuse he used, he couldn't win.

Contract is the foundation of Liyue.

The crowd of onlookers also looked at Businessman B with speechless faces. He didn't even read the contract, so he had the nerve to file a lawsuit?

I thought it was an interesting lawsuit, but this is it?

the other side,

The official from the General Affairs Department still looked indifferent: "Businessman B, do you want to choose to fulfill the contract and complete the transaction, or violate the contract and accept punishment?"

Businessman B's face turned pale. Is there any choice?

If you fulfill the contract, you will lose some money at most. If you violate the contract, you will really be cut off from Liyue business.

"I choose to fulfill the contract."

The official from the General Affairs Department nodded: "Then let's decide that regarding the dispute over the transaction of Yeposhi between Businessman A and B, the contract is correct and the transaction continues. Businessman B must make up the payment to Businessman A as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Sir, for upholding justice." Businessman A smiled and cupped his hands to the officials of the General Affairs Department, looking satisfied.

The General Affairs Department official looked at him indifferently, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

He has seen many people like this.

"The dispute over the Yebo Stone transaction contract between merchants A and B has been concluded. Next, we will start the next case, the Yebo Stone transaction fraud case between merchants A and B."

Merchant A: “Ah?”

Merchant B: “Yeah!”

Onlookers: Hehehehe.

Seeing the sudden change in the expressions of the two businessmen in the lobby,

Wang Daoyi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This official from the General Affairs Department was quite interesting.

Nashida's eyes also lit up and she continued to observe how things developed.

Regardless of the changes in the expressions of the two businessmen in the lobby, the official from the General Affairs Department remained indifferent: "Secretary, is the person back?"

The General Affairs Department official next to him nodded and said, "Your Excellency, the person who went to inspect store No. 197 has returned and can be summoned at any time."

"Then let someone come up."

After being summoned by the General Affairs Department official, a man dressed as a General Affairs Department employee came to the lobby and stood next to the two businessmen.

"General Affairs Department, Quality Inspection Department, employee number 13524, here to report on my duties." The General Affairs Department employee bowed slightly to the official.

The official from the General Affairs Department nodded and said, "Quality Inspection No. 13524, do you guarantee that what you are going to say next is completely true, without bias or assumptions?"

The employee of the General Affairs Department replied seriously: "Quality Inspection No. 13524 hereby declares that what I am going to say next is completely true, without bias or conjecture."

"Okay, first of all, did you notice the sign in store No. 197 that said the samples are for reference only?"

"Nothing was found."

"Okay, then did you find any signs in store No. 197 that indicated that its products were artificially synthesized?"

"Nothing was found."

"Then, have you found any other artificial Yebo Stone samples in Shop 197?"

"Nothing was found."

After a series of conversations,

The eyes of the General Affairs Department officials have become increasingly cold.

Merchant A had sweat stains on his forehead, which were dripping uncontrollably onto the ground.

Merchant B's previous pale face disappeared, and joy appeared in his eyes.

"Okay, QC 13524, please go to the side and rest. Be ready to continue your statement at any time."

After letting the staff of the General Affairs Department take a rest,

The General Affairs Department official looked at Merchant A, who was sweating profusely in the lobby and said, "Merchant A, according to Liyue Law, merchants should mark the goods they sell truthfully and effectively. Have you marked them?"

"I...this...I..." Merchant A stammered, with beads of sweat the size of beans falling from his forehead.

The eyes of the General Affairs Department official became increasingly cold: "Please answer my question as soon as possible!"

Merchant A looked disheartened: "I...don't have any."

"Okay, then, Merchant A, did you intend to use the high-quality Yebo Stone sample to deceive Merchant B into signing a contract?" the General Affairs Department official continued to ask.

Merchant A waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, I didn't mean to deceive, I just forgot to remind you!"

Intentional deception and forgetting to remind are two completely different concepts, and Businessman A understands this.

A trace of disgust and disdain flashed in the eyes of the General Affairs Department official.

He naturally knew that the other party was deliberately deceiving him, but in the absence of evidence, he could only treat it as if he had forgotten to remind him.

"So, Merchant A, you didn't set up clear product information in your store, and you didn't fulfill your obligation to remind customers during the transaction. Do you admit these two points?"

Merchant A made a bitter face: "Admit it."

"Okay, then according to Liyue regulations, you have not set up clear cargo information, so you are sentenced to suspend business. After rectification, the General Affairs Department will conduct an inspection. You can reopen after no problems are found. Do you have any objections?"

"No objection."

"Well, according to Liyue's regulations, if you fail to fulfill your obligation to remind the merchant during the transaction, you will be responsible for half of the contractual liability between you and Merchant B. Do you have any objections?"

"...No objection." Merchant A hesitated for a moment, but finally gave up quibbling. He knew that quibbling would only make the punishment more severe.

He glanced at the two businessmen and the crowd watching.

The official from the General Affairs Department spoke slowly: "Due to the relevance of the two cases, now, Merchant B, do you want to cancel the original contract?"

Merchant B nodded quickly: "I want to cancel it."

The official then looked at another person and said, "Merchant A, do you agree that Merchant B can cancel the contract?"

"I agree." Businessman A was helpless. What else could he do if he didn't agree?

"Okay, then in the presence of all of you, I hereby declare that in the case of the Yebo Stone transaction dispute between Merchant A and Merchant B, after negotiation, the two parties have peacefully terminated the contract. Merchant A must return the prepayment made by Merchant B, but does not need to pay any compensation. Merchant B must return the goods to Merchant A, and also does not need to pay liquidated damages."

"In addition, Merchant B will be fined 5000 Mora for violating the contract."

After saying this, the General Affairs Department official looked at everyone and asked, "Do you have any objections to the punishment of Merchant A and Merchant B?"

No one in the crowd spoke up.

After three breaths, the General Affairs Department official withdrew his gaze and looked at the staff beside him: "Since no one has any objection, let's issue the verdict."

It was a lawsuit and both people were punished. I have to say it was very interesting.

Although Merchant B was the deceived party, he did not take the contract seriously, which violated the basic legal principles of Liyue. Therefore, even though he was deceived, he must be punished to serve as a warning to him and others, so that everyone knows the importance of contracts.

Although Merchant A acted in accordance with the contract, he violated other laws of Liyue and must also be punished, because this is an era of rule by man, and there are laws in addition to contracts.

Watching the case end,

Wang Daoyi lowered his head and looked at Nashida: "How about it, do you have any ideas?"

Nashida nodded thoughtfully, "Well, there are some."

Then he looked up at Wang Daoyi, a little embarrassed: "Daoyi, can I talk to that person?"

Nashida pointed to the official from the General Affairs Department who had heard the case. After the case was over, the official hurried to the back, seeming to be very busy.

"Talk to him? Oh... I'll go ask." Wang Daoyi didn't guarantee anything. Who knew if the other party knew him? Although he knew he was quite famous in the General Affairs Department, what if there was someone who didn't know his worth?

Holding Nashida's hand, he walked to the General Affairs Department's secretary and said, "Hello, I want to ask, can we visit the person who just tried the case?"

The officer of the General Affairs Department was recording the case just now. When he heard the voice, he looked up and saw that the man looked familiar. He looked at Wang Daoyi's face for a while.

"Oh, it's Lord Wang Daoyi. Sorry, I didn't recognize you just now. You want to visit Lord Qian Wei. He seems to be a little busy recently. However, if it's you, you can go directly to Room 3 in the backyard. That's his office."

"Okay, thank you very much, you can continue with your work."

With Nashida, the two came to the backyard.

Maybe Wang Daoyi's face is really useful, or maybe the General Affairs Department here is friendly enough.

No one stopped the two of them as they came in, and no one checked them.

Room 3...Wang Daoyi looked around and quickly found the corresponding room.

Walked up and knocked on the door.

"Who? What's the matter?" The voice of the officer who had just investigated the case came from the room.

"I am Wang Daoyi, and I am here to visit Your Excellency."

"Wang Daoyi?" A voice soon came from the room. After a few breaths, the door was opened. "It turned out to be Lord Wang Daoyi who came to visit. I'm so sorry. I've been busy recently. I apologize for the impoliteness."

"No, no, it is our fault that we came here to disturb you."

"Haha, don't disturb me, don't disturb me, please come in, my name is Qian Wei, you can just call me by my name."

Qian Wei smiled and gave up his seat, motioning for the two to go in and talk.

Enter the room,

What caught my eye was a large number of documents, which almost filled the entire room.
