Chapter 123 Punishment

"If the forces behind them want to find me, tell them to come to me." Shen Shilang said, "At this difficult time for the court, instead of helping the court, they want to hold it back?"

The Fifth Prince now understood Shen Shilang's intention and immediately said, "You can also come to me. I will write down their names one by one and go back to talk to my father."

In the past, you could hoard goods and sell them at a high price and pretend to be stupid.

But now the imperial court has stepped in personally and has not asked you to donate grain, but to buy it at the normal market price.

All those who need to be notified have been notified, and the face that should be given has been given.

If you don't come down the stairs quickly, don't blame me for not giving you face later.

Shen Shilang has all the qualities of courtesy, affection, righteousness and reason.

"Yes." Cheng Zhidao simply answered, and a heavy stone was lifted from his heart.

It’s different with the support of the prince.

Cheng knew that he had to deal with Shen Shilang's instructions.

Shen Shilang stood up and asked, "Your Highness, are you tired?"

The fifth prince stood up and said, "I am not tired, sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

"I want to go for a walk on the street and see what the people are doing outside." Shen Shilang said, "If your Highness is not tired, would you like to go with me to see it?"

"Okay!" The Fifth Prince nodded heavily, "I will go!"

So Shen Shilang called the guards to follow him, and Shen Shilang reminded the fifth prince, "Although there are not many refugees in Chong'an City, they are all people who have been hungry for a long time, and they may not be able to do anything. Don't act alone."

"Okay." The fifth prince nodded, "I want to see what the people are like."

Shen Shilang smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's time to see it. We should see the prosperity, and we should also see the suffering."

When they left the inn, Su Jinshi saw real famine for the first time.

The black and white pictures in the history textbooks don’t seem to be very immersive.

The extras in TV dramas who are wearing makeup don’t really look like they are starving or freezing.

Knowing that it was a TV series, Su Jinshi didn't feel it was real when watching it.

But now, I can actually see these hungry and suffering people.

Especially when Chong'an was still a peaceful and prosperous place, she had seen the common people. Although they were wearing coarse cotton clothes, they were warm and decent, and their bodies were strong and sturdy, so they could hold up the clothes.

Although there were traces of wind and sun on her face, her complexion was rosy.

Unlike now, he looked like a skeleton under his clothes, with a pale and thin face, dull eyes, and had lost hope for the future.

Looking at this picture, Su Jinshi felt like something was stuck in his heart.

The sudden ringing of the cell phone woke Su Jinshi up from his thoughts.

WeChat voice calls popped up on Su Jinshi’s phone and computer at the same time.

It's wheat.

As long as it is not necessary to use the mobile phone to answer the call, Su Jinshi will choose to use the computer when the phone is on the Daxi World.

This time too, Su Jinshi answered the WeChat call on his computer.

"Xiaomi." Su Jinshi picked up the phone and called out.

"Jinshi, have you heard that Mo Jizon received a warning letter from their company?" Mai Chaoyun said excitedly.

"I don't know. When did it happen?" Su Jinshi said, "Mo Jizong called me a few days ago, but I didn't answer and hung up directly."

"Since we had a complete falling out last time we met, there's no need for me to have any contact with him anymore," Su Jinshi said.

She brought Mo Jizong to her parents' home and told Mai Chaoyun how they had a falling out the next day.

"He called you, probably to talk about this matter. I don't know why he called you, whether he wanted you to beg for mercy or something." Mai Chaoyun muttered, and then said, "Didn't your company contact Mo Jizong's company to complain that he used his power to get your home address and harassed you at home?"

"Well, did he receive a warning letter because of this?" Su Jinshi knew that even if her company complained to Mo Jizong's company, there would be no immediate result.

Especially the larger the company, the more complicated the procedures.

It is considered fast to get results in ten days or half a month.

But if we really think about it, Mo Jizong's mistake was not that serious.

At least from the company's perspective, it did not cause any losses to the company, but there was a slight problem with the employee's professional ethics.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

However, if you leave a bad record, it will not be a good thing when you compete with others for promotion in the future.

"Well, it will also affect his evaluation results and year-end performance appraisal." Mai Chaoyun said, "Because of the private inquiry of your home address, his colleagues in the business department of his company were also implicated. Anyway, although he has kept his position as a manager, his reputation in the company has deteriorated. When he is mentioned, everyone in the company complains about him."

"How do you know all this?" Su Jinshi admired Mai Chaoyun very much for being so well-informed.

"Don't you think about what I do? I'm a journalist after all, so I have some connections in various industries. Although I can't do big things, I can get some gossip." Mai Chaoyun snorted, "Now Du Jinze doesn't need to ask Mo Jizong to help him. It turns out that relying on himself is better than anything else. He made a direct appointment with the person in charge of the other party, and the talk went well."

"Before, I listened to Mo Jizong's orders. I don't know what he wanted." Mai Chaoyun complained, "Fortunately, he knew how to turn back when he was lost. Now he doesn't need to be controlled by Mo Jizong anymore."

"It's a good thing indeed. He didn't figure it out before, but it's good that he figured it out now." Su Jinshi said with a smile.

Not long after finishing the call with Mai Chaoyun, Su Jinshi received news from Qingyou again.

Qingyou also brought Shengxiao Media’s penalty decision against Mo Jizong.

Qing You: "Sheng Xiao wanted to apologize to you, but was stopped by the company. To avoid a situation like Mo Jizong, we contacted their company directly and negotiated with them on your behalf. Now I mainly want to hear your opinion."

Su Jinshi: "I have no opinion on Shengxiao Media. This matter is purely Mo Jizong's personal behavior. I am also very grateful to Shengxiao Media for handling it in a timely and fair manner."

Qingyou: "Okay, then I'll convey your meaning. This is good. We are in the same industry, and we may need to cooperate in the future."

Su Jinshi: "Thank you very much for this matter, company."

Qingyou: "What are you talking about? This is what we should do. Just concentrate on writing your script."

After finishing the conversation, Su Jinshi looked at his phone.

The Fifth Prince seemed shocked by the sight of the people starving.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses and asked Shen Shilang, "Sir, can we go outside the city to take a look?"

"Cheng Zhidao said that there are still many refugees who have been resettled outside the city. Their situation must be much worse than that in the city." said the fifth prince.
