Chapter 572: The Storm of Divestment

After the three of Walker left, Yao Yuchen frowned and said, "Brother Lin, you shouldn't be so tough when you refused just now, dragging them down."

Also, why do you need to tell them about your next rectification of the official system and the city defense system, isn't this a preparation for them? ”

Lin Chenyi said with a smile: "What if you are prepared, all preparations are in vain in the face of absolute strength, and besides, I have some excuses to do something to them." ”

Yao Yuchen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he could only shake his head helplessly.

Although he didn't approve of Lin Chenyi's way of dealing with the aristocracy, he was still secretly happy to see the three of Walker just now.

These bastards usually rely on the support of big forces outside Marina City behind them, and they are only superficially respectful to him.

Walker and their side ball are actually even more in control of Marina City than he is, but not to the point where the two sides will fall out.

Now that Lin Chenyi has arrived, it means that Binhai City has entered a new era, and what the old forces have illegally obtained will eventually be confiscated by the new rights.

Sure enough, before the next day, the nobles' revenge came.

Led by the three viscounts of Walker, Tianyun, and Jinlong, it was announced that the industry would be withdrawn from Marina City!

The beautiful name is that they received an invitation from the city lord and nobles of Aohai City next door, providing them with more favorable conditions than Marina City, and at the same time, more than thirty minor nobles who owned property in Marina City also announced that they would follow the three viscounts.

As soon as this news came out, the residents of Marina City were instantly fried!

Walker, Tianyun, and Jinlong, the most representative industries are the three chambers of commerce named after them, the strength of each other is very close, but the influence is very great, as soon as they withdraw their investment, the economy of the entire coastal city seems to have been hit with a heavy punch all of a sudden.

At this time, Lin Chenyi also happened to go back to deal with Monday's class, and after hearing the report of his subordinates, even if he was prepared, he was still a little shocked by the strength of these nobles.

Zhang Hao said: "City Lord, according to the current situation, the three viscounts of Walker alone are involved in more than 10 important pillar industries in Coastal City.

Not only will the withdrawal of the three major chambers of commerce lead to the loss of a large number of customers who have the strength to have a stable cooperative relationship with them, but also have a certain impact on the lives of ordinary residents.

Including those aristocrats who followed the exit, more than 100 restaurants, inns, casinos, and green buildings in Marina City will close down, indirectly causing more than thousands of residents to lose their source of livelihood.

And that's not all, the three chambers of commerce under the Three Viscounts control the only two commercial channels to the interior of Marina City, and without their support, we can't effectively and safely send goods into the inland for trading. ”

Lin Chenyi sneered: "What is the reaction of ordinary people? ”

Zhang Hao replied: "Yes, there are some people who are a little unstable now, after all, the withdrawal of these nobles has directly affected the source of living income of thousands of families and tens of thousands of people.

In addition, some people rely on the entertainment industry under the three viscounts, and they naturally can't stand it when they withdraw, and now they are making trouble outside the city lord's mansion, and there should be people who secretly incite emotions. ”

Yao Yuchen smiled and said: "Unexpectedly, these nobles will definitely not be willing to withdraw, although Aohai City is further back than Coastal City, the economy is not much different.

But our side has more resources, and many soldiers on leave or adventurers who have withdrawn from the Soul Burial Battlefield like to stay in Marina City, and they just want to force Brother Lin to give in. ”

Not to mention that the withdrawal of the three viscounts will have a negative impact on the common people, their taxes on Marina City alone will involve tens of millions of medium-grade spirit crystals.

What's even more serious is that now it is only the three most representative nobles who have retreated, and the other nobles are still waiting, once those nobles also retreat collectively, it will be too big a blow to Marina City.

Yao Yuchen hoped that what Lin Chenyi did was to weaken the influence of the nobles on Binhai City, and it was best to find a balance without affecting the economy of Binhai City, but how could there be such a good thing?

So Yao Yuchen suggested: "I think we should stop in moderation, and we can slowly try to rectify the city defense system and the official system."

Carry out a tax-free policy for the nobles who remain, keep them, presumably the three major chambers of commerce will withdraw, and they will be willing to gnaw on this cake, and they should agree to our conditions. ”

Yao Yuchen's suggestion is undoubtedly more pertinent, but this is a palliative rather than a cure, and in fact it does not weaken the strength of the remaining nobles, but the nobles who have tasted the sweetness may counteract in the future.

Of course Yao Yuchen wanted this, but he really didn't want Binhai City to be destroyed like this.

Lin Chenyi said: "No, their retreat is their loss, continue to suppress!"

What about divestment, is it only those nobles who will do business?

Don't forget, you also have the status of an earl, and I am still a duke......"

Yao Yuchen was stunned for a moment, faintly guessing in his heart, and at the same time shocked Lin Chenyi's ambition and courage.

"Zhang Hao, draft a decree for me, with your descendant army as the leader, officially start the rectification of the coastal city's urban defense system and official system, welcome the public to report, the whistleblower will be rewarded, and promise to get the protection of the city lord's mansion, hurting the whistleblower is equivalent to rebellion!"

Zhang Hao grinned and said, "No problem, we are familiar with this job!" ”

Wasn't that the original Guanlong Island like this, in the final analysis, it was some aristocratic class who did all kinds of evil that were too ruthless.

Now that Lin Chenyi, the big boss, is the backstage of ordinary people, I believe that a lot of people will take this opportunity to take revenge!

This day was destined to be extraordinary, and when Walker announced the withdrawal not long ago, and before they were even ready for all the property transfers, they were confused by the following decree.

"Big news, big news, City Lord Lin has made another heavy blow, we must thoroughly investigate the corruption and inaction of the city defense system and the official system, welcome whistleblowers, and there will be rewards for reporting?"

"What is corruption and inaction?"

"Brother, this is a term invented by the city lord of Lin, that is, those who are greedy for taxes, or who collect money and don't do anything."

"No, I heard the guards on duty in the City Lord's Mansion say that it's not right for us to give money to do things, and the parents of the City Lord's Mansion themselves should do things for us."

", those nobles don't exploit you, they all burn high incense, and they should do things for us, it's better to say that the city lord of Lin is fair and honest, and treats us as human beings!"

"That's right, support City Lord Lin!"

The two measures made Lin Chenyi's prestige break through to a new height for a while, as long as you don't know what is going on outside the window, Binhai City is about to change!!

However, it was the aristocracy who suffered this time, and it did not have a negative impact on those of them who could not even survive.

Under Zhang Hao's propaganda, the concept of a legal society quietly took root in the hearts of the people of Binhai City......
