Given the magistrate's accepted factual findings — appellant opened and inspected goods, quoted precise prices in Cantonese, followed the customer to show different machines and explained delivery arrangements in a small shop with the owner nearby who did not intervene — the only reasonable and irresistible inference was that the appellant was performing work as a salesperson and therefore taking employment in contravention of the Immigration Ordinance; the magistrate was entitled to reject the claimed family relationship and to draw that inference.
