Daxia, Canghaiguan.
On the city wall, a flag with Chen Yi's name was hung up.
A temporary militia group composed of dozens of government officials was stationed outside the city, guarding everything around them.
Not long ago, this militia team ambushed Dayan's outpost and killed hundreds of enemies.
At this moment, there was a lot of internal dissatisfaction in Canghaiguan.
Some wealthy people had already fled with their families and their money in carriages.
The rest are the poor in Canghaiguan.
Canghaiguan was easy to attack but difficult to defend, and there were not many garrison troops. In addition, Lu Lingqi led Chen Yi into the city, so the garrison troops surrendered without any resistance at all.
At this moment, the people in the city, as well as a hundred soldiers from Canghai Pass, were being controlled by Chen Yi's men at the entrance to the city's afternoon market.
"King Bingjian is so stupid! He actually allowed a traitor from Great Yan to seize my city!"
"I told you that women cannot be in power! Your Majesty is so blind!"
"This traitor from Great Yan actually dares to proclaim himself king. Are he really not afraid of being wiped out by Great Yan and Great Xia at the same time?"
"There are no more than a thousand soldiers in this city! Let's see how he can withstand the attacks of the two dynasties! Aren't we the common people the ones who suffer in the end?"
All the soldiers and civilians in Canghaiguan complained about Chen Yi.
At this moment, Chen Yi walked out from his hands.
"Canghaiguan will become the richest place in the entire China. Those who don't believe in me can leave and return to Daxia. I will not stop them."
Chen Yi smiled calmly.
The crowd suddenly shouted curses!
"You great traitor! Who would mess with you?"
"Yes! If you can, don't set up an ambush at the north gate to kill us!"
"We wanted to leave a long time ago!"
Chen Yi's men couldn't stand it any longer, so they rushed over and held down a few thugs.
"Don't be ignorant of good and evil! Fortunately, Mr. Chen Yi is a benevolent king, otherwise he would have killed you all long ago!"
"Exactly! Otherwise you would have no chance to make noise here!"
"A bunch of ungrateful people! Don't be so shameless!"
Chen Yi's men scolded.
The group of soldiers and civilians did not dare to say anything, for fear that Chen Yi's men would shoot them to death with random arrows.
In the past few years, the mainland of China has been raging with war, and they have heard of the horrific stories of massacres after the city was broken.
A few people from Dayan suddenly thought of something.
"Chen Yi? Could it be Chen Yi, Dayan's former consort?"
"I've heard rumors about him! The people in Dayan say he's very capable!"
"Yes, yes, yes! What's the saying, 'I would rather bear the nine grave sins of Great Yan than live up to my consort's kindness'!"
At this time, several Daxia people came over and looked at Chen Yi carefully.
Chen Yi smiled and nodded: "I still say what I said, I will not keep anyone who wants to leave, but as long as he stays, he will be my brother, Chen Yi, and I can guarantee that he will be rich and powerful throughout his life."
The crowd began to chatter.
"Who believes what he says! This place will soon be besieged by Great Yan and Great Xia! If you don't leave, you will die!"
"No! I've heard of Chen Yi's reputation in Dayan. He is a good man!"
"Whoever wants to keep it will be kept! I'm leaving! I won't give it away!"
In the end, more than half of the soldiers and civilians chose to leave.
Only a handful remained.
One of Chen Yi's subordinates sighed with emotion: "Mr. Chen Yi, it's all because you did such a good job of keeping secrets at that time that Tucheng County's achievements were not reported to Daxia. If those cowards had ever seen Tucheng County, I’m definitely begging to stay.”
Chen Yi smiled calmly and said to the subordinate: "Yang Wei, go and bring what I want."
Yang Wei is Chen Yi's confidant. When Chen Yi was the county magistrate, Yang Wei was Chen Yi's security captain.
Yang Wei left without stopping.
Chen Yi stood there smiling and saying nothing.
Now Chen Yi thought clearly.
If you want to gain a foothold in this strange continent, the most important thing is to have your own territory.
Otherwise, if something like Chen Jingshu happens again, everything he has worked so hard to build will collapse in an instant.
What's more, this era does not yet belong to the history of Chen Yi's era.
For example, the Great Yan Dynasty has never appeared in the history that Chen Yi knew.
So everything is new, and Chen Yi can only take one step at a time.
Soon, Yang Wei moved several large boxes.
"Yang Wei, open the box and pour out the contents."
Chen Yi ordered.
Yang Wei took the order, called a few of his men, opened the box, and poured it all into the square!
Wow!
Countless silver poured out of the box like a waterfall!
The glittering silver immediately attracted many people to watch.
They were talking one after another, wondering what Chen Yi's intention was.
Chen Yi took a step forward and announced loudly: "Thank you all the people for choosing to stay and trusting me, Chen Yi."
The common people stared at the white money, and their scalps felt numb!
"Oh my god, so much... silver!"
"Am I reading that right? How come he has so much money? It's comparable to a small treasury, right?"
"With so much silver, does he want to cover the entire city with silver?"
Screams came and went.
Chen Yi smiled slightly and said: "Everyone, stop talking, you should divide the money!"
The crowd exploded instantly!
"What?"
"Give us?"
"How can this be?"
Chen Yi distributed the silver, and the people believed their ears. They looked at the silver in their hands and were stunned for a moment.
Chen Yi looked at their stunned expressions and smiled: "What, are you not satisfied?"
"Satisfied!"
An old man reacted immediately and said excitedly, "Oh my God! I'm rich!"
A middle-aged man lamented: "Just grab a handful and it will be more than our annual income!"
A young man shouted loudly: "I am willing to support Chen Gong!"
In an instant, Chen Yi’s name was shouted in Tucheng County!
"We support Chen Yi!"
"Me too! Long live Chen Yi!"
"Hahaha! Those who leave early, let them regret it!"
The common people rushed forward and began to grab the silver on the ground.
Some people even took off their clothes and put them in piles.
Chen Yi looked at them and nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, several businessmen from Tucheng County came over.
They couldn't help but smile bitterly when they looked at the scene of these people frantically grabbing money.
"Oh, it's all just money...it makes me feel so sad..."
"That's all, let it be whatever Mr. Chen says."
"That's right, we believe that as long as we follow Mr. Chen, we will make money back a hundred times a thousand times..."
Businessmen talk to each other.
Chen Yi smiled slightly: "You go and take over the bank in the city immediately. Although it is empty, I need you to use your money to fill the bank, so as to ensure that Canghaiguan's economy does not collapse."
The businessmen nodded, turned and left.
At this moment, Yang Wei suddenly rushed over.
"Master! It's broken! The scouts are here to report! Dayan's troops are coming to kill us!"
