Chapter 84: Everyone in the World Knows the Dao Ancestor

The 18th year of the Qianwu Era!

The Chen Dynasty and the Northern Zhou Dynasty surrendered. With this victory, the Jing Dynasty expanded and recaptured the invaded lands. In the past few months, heads continued to fall from various places and the Emperor began to settle accounts.

Those officials who had surrendered were beheaded or sent to the border. From the prime ministers of the three provinces to the ordinary county officers, none of them were spared.

No one dared to rebel against such cruelty!

In order to expand the dynasty's military strength and recruit more civil servants, Jiang Ziyu announced to the world that merchants could open up their wallents and those who contributed greatly could be promoted to a noble. The state treasury that was originally in a deficit became rich in a short period of time. Not only were the merchants of the dynasty was doing this, but merchant families from other dynasties also came to surrender.
