All those involved in the case were severely punished.
Cui Shize reported the outcome of this matter to the higher-ups. Bai Wutong immediately ordered a thorough investigation into the corruption of all industries.
Be it the glass factory, that had people taking the opportunity to use the raw materials in the factory to make jewelry for the wives, the food factory, where people stole vegetables home, or people using their official positions to assign roles to acquaintances, or that the distribution of houses, land, and food did not match the number of people, they were all punished.
The sudden inspection involved a huge number of people and immediately deterred other people who were tempted to use their official positions for personal gain.
Two minor officials who had exceeded the amount of corruption were directly sentenced to death.
