The Hearing

Sit through the hearing at the market regulator's office: hear the officer open it and ask the complainant to state his case, say they used your face to sell fake tea, hear the respondent say they did not know, hear Lawyer Zhao point to the box, and hear the ruling in its own register: this bureau finds infringement, orders sales stopped, fines fifty thousand and orders the losses paid.
