All localities should take immediate action to seriously investigate and punish such behavior."
On October 5, the Eastern Province Daily reprinted this commentary.
Five days later, soldiers from the armed forces stationed near the Majiagou Brigade quickly moved out and arrested all those involved in selling daughters and buying wives.
Afterwards, the army remained stationed in Majiagou and conducted patrols every day. The entire Meishan Commune seemed to be in a state of emergency.
Without social unrest, everyone would remain silent.
The legal publicity vehicle drove into Meishan Commune, going from street to street, publicizing the Marriage Law and the Public Security Regulations every day, publicizing the Party and government’s policies on women and marriage, and publicizing that arranged marriages and marriage transactions are equivalent to human trafficking. These people are human traffickers and should be arrested and punished!
Of course, there was no special legal publicity vehicle at that time. What was used was the car of Secretary Li of the County Party Committee. Like He Zeshan before him, he did not use it at ordinary times, but would contribute it to do big things at critical moments.
After arresting the person, the Qushui County Women's Federation quickly reported the situation to the higher-level Women's Federation, and Secretary Li also reported this special work to the Rencheng Municipal Committee.
Liu Chengjun contacted her mother and informed her of the details. The All-China Women's Federation contacted the Women's Federation of East Province, which happened to have received the materials reported by the Women's Federation of Rencheng. The several parties joined forces in victory, and what followed was overwhelming publicity.
All the news about Qushui County that appeared in the media before was positive, but this time, a dark side of society was finally exposed.

As soon as the Majiagou incident emerged, each commune quickly launched self-examinations and rectifications, encouraging the women victims to actively seek self-help. If anyone was trapped or detained and unable to rescue themselves, as long as an insider made an anonymous report, the commune's People's Armed Forces Department and public security commissioners would immediately respond to the call.
Although the police stations at the commune level have not been restored, the public security special commissioner system has been restored, which is responsible for social security and household registration management.
If no one reports it, it doesn't matter. The People's Armed Forces Department and the public security commissioners will conduct door-to-door investigations, it just takes some time.
