On the second morning of the interview, Hu Jinlin took the initiative to find the work group and brought a bag of cash with 60000 yuan, which was equivalent to paying 17 months' worth of taxes. He thought this way he could pass the level. After the Spring Festival, the air in Liushi seems to be still very heavy. Banners have begun to hang on the streets, "Strictly crack down on criminal activities in the economic field". The loudspeaker, which has not been sounded for three or four years, has been roaring again. Every day, there are strong sounding editorials and the like being broadcasted. Hu Jinlin looked at the signs and decided not to do business anymore. He simply pulled the rolling shutter of the store and took his newlywed wife on a trip to various parts of the country to relax.

Two weeks later, when he returned to Liushi, his friends were surprised to see him again. "We thought you wouldn't come back," Hu Jinlin realized. It didn't seem like the situation would end so quickly. The tax department pasted a white paper with a red seal on the cement pillar of his store, notifying him that the business tax would be raised in the future, from 0.35% in previous years with a penalty to 6%. If there were any problems that were not reported, he would be fined twice after being investigated. Another month later, the town suddenly sent someone to look for him, saying coldly, "You must not go out from now on, you must be on call and wait for processing." The news from various channels proves that the working group has started to organize his materials.
