What should merchants do if they are forced to spend?

You can refuse, and if losses are caused to the parties concerned, you can directly claim compensation from the responsible person, or you can claim compensation from the management organ, arbitration organ or judicial organ.

Article 10 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on the Protection of Consumer Rights and Interests stipulates that consumers have the right to fair trade.

When purchasing goods or receiving services, consumers have the right to obtain fair trading conditions such as quality assurance, reasonable price and correct measurement, and have the right to refuse the compulsory trading behavior of operators.
