Chapter 2171 Magic Flame Rising to the Sky 2

"It's not your turn to decide when I will return to the Holy Church. I will go back when the time comes." Edward coldly replied to Dupont. Obviously, he didn't take the bait. He turned to face the street and shouted: "Everyone, please go back. Yes." In one day I Edward, you will not be enslaved,"

The crowd surged up and looked up at Edward, with a glimmer of hope on their faces, but they didn't dare to move yet. The demonic knights around them were still there, and pieces of iron were being formed in the furnace.

Compared with these, the lonely Edward was so weak that no one could believe that he really had the ability to resist Dupont.

Edward faced Dupont again, lowered his voice but said more firmly: "Slave everyone and make Qizhou Island a mess and make life difficult for the people. You can still enjoy the luxurious life before, and you can support an army of thousands." ,"

Dupont looked grim. These words really stung his nerves. Under Edward's auspices, Qizhou Island has been prosperous and prosperous for tens of thousands of years. It seemed that Dupont had left it alone. His power was not fully reflected, but he only He is the real beneficiary, and the tax collected every year is as high as tens of millions of taels of gold, which is higher than the annual income of the first-class families on the mainland.

It is precisely this huge and continuous supply of financial resources that allows Dupont to enjoy the life of a super rich man. Not only does he have dozens of luxury resorts on Qizhou Island, but he also has nearly a hundred properties across the mainland, making him the richest man on the mainland. One of dozens of wealthy people.

It can be said that Qizhou Island is his cash cow. If Qizhou Island is now ruled by the Iron Curtain, it will undoubtedly destroy the cash cow, and there will no longer be a steady stream of wealth to support his luxurious life.

Dupont's face was uncertain, and finally he waved his hand and ordered: "Withdraw,"

The black and white knights scattered on the street withdrew, and the furnace gradually cooled down.

The residents still knelt on the ground and did not dare to get up. They kept kowtowing and thanking each other. They didn't know who they were thanking. They cried a lot, but they shed tears with excitement after liberation.

"I don't have to hold people accountable, but the rules must be changed. From today on, all the land and property on Qizhou Island will be taken over by the Holy Church. Tomorrow we will start rebuilding the temple, checking house by house for asset confiscation, and in the future, poll tax, land tax and other holy After the temple is built, the calculation will be recalculated," Dupont stood up and issued the order coldly.

It is another wake-up call for the residents. People do not need to be enslaved, but their property must be confiscated. This is just a little better than slavery. If the residents who have lost everything want to survive, they still have to work for Dupont. What is the difference between them and slaves? .

In the eyes of the residents with fear and despair, Dupont's large troops withdrew. He had a luxurious manor with complete facilities outside the city, so he would not live in the city. He only left 200 cavalry to garrison in the city.

Rising Sun Bank, Ye Yu and Liang Yong stood behind the windows of the second-floor office, with a commanding view of the square.

Ye Yu said sadly: "The rumors are good. They really killed millions of people. It's so cruel."

"Let's go, we can't control this," Liang Yong shook his head and sighed, carrying Ye Yu downstairs. At this time, they had to be careful. DuPont over there asked everyone to kneel on the street, and they could still hide in the office. , is already a violation.

Going down to the first floor, they opened a secret door, which led directly to the vault in the basement, but only they could enter from here. If others wanted to go to the vault, they could only go through the main door and have to go through numerous checks.

After walking for more than ten meters in the narrow passage, they opened three heavy iron doors in the middle. They stood in the vault and saw that it was full of golden colors. After this period of operation, Rising Sun Bank has absorbed more than 5 million Two taels of gold, because the construction of the military industrial base has not yet begun, all this gold has not been put to use and can only be piled here.

Liang Yong did not stop, his mental power exploded, and he shouted at Jinshan: "Take it, take it, take it,"

Then he saw that the gold was decreasing rapidly and the vault became empty. But when there were still 4.5 million taels left, Liang Yong stopped and just moved the gold to its position and spread it flat in the warehouse. At first glance, it looked like it was still the same. The gold shines brightly, and the warehouse is filled with gold.

They nodded with satisfaction, and Ye Yu said: "The account books have been put away,"

"I collected it long ago. The ones still in the office are fake accounts," Liang Yong said proudly.

"Let's go then," Ye Yu reached out and pushed back a strand of hair from his forehead.

Liang Yong came over and hugged her, kissed her on the face and said, "I'm sorry for you. I have to stay on the main planet for a while."

"Well, I know, you have to be careful too," Ye Yu said softly. By now, they already had a good understanding of each other. The only thing missing was that the layer of window paper hadn't been pierced. It was only a matter of time before they merged.

"Xiao Yu, let's go," Liang Yong called, and Ye Yu magically disappeared. The next moment she was on the main planet. Gu Xiaoqi, Qing Wu, Guo Xiu and the others were all here. When the enemy was approaching, Liang Yong did not want to take risks. He insisted that his girlfriends all go to the Peach Blossom Fan to take shelter temporarily.

Because of the help of Xiao Yanzi, they will not be bored in the main planet. Even if they can work in the factory here, they can also see the outside situation through the small window at any time, and they are not completely isolated from the outside world.

When Liang Yong came out again, there were only 200 cavalry left in the square. Not all of them were in the square, but most of them were scattered throughout the city, looking for food, drink and entertainment in the shops along the street, causing harm to the residents.

Liang Yong transformed into a poor middle-aged man wearing linen clothes and a straw hat. He slipped out of the back door of the bank and walked on the street with his arms folded. Today's street was particularly deserted, and all the doors were closed. They didn't dare to do business at all, and there were constant noisy yells and cries. It was the cavalry who were breaking down the doors and looting.

Some cavalry were already executing Dupont's orders, breaking into residents' homes and rummaging through boxes and cabinets to collect property. They took away all the gold, silver, jewelry, and property titles without even bothering to register them. After the looting, they drove the residents into the streets and then posted stickers on their doors. The seal means that this place is already the property of the Holy Church, and the residents can only live on the streets. They can only go home again after applying to rent here tomorrow and paying a high rent.

However, these will have to wait until tomorrow, when DuPont's civilian staff return to the city to work, before they can accept residents' applications. The residents who were kicked out of their homes tonight can only live on the streets.
