Chapter 899 - 899 Anger
?Chapter 899: Anger Chapter 899: Anger Editor: Atlas Studios As soon as the Emperor’s decree to appoint Qi Haoran arrived at the government office of Guangdong, the citizens of Guangzhou were in an uproar.
For the first time, they bought firecrackers and set them off.
When they heard that the maritime ban had been lifted, the fishermen living in the Willow Tree Workshop walked out of the low and damp slums.

We just haven’t had the time to deal with this since Great Qi is not quite stable yet…” “But without rules, it’s not enough to rely on the officials’ self-awareness.” Qi Haoran’s eyes flashed coldly as he said, “Not only did Yu Cheng embezzle and take bribes, but he also colluded with pirates to harm the good people.
