Chapter 1284: Agitated Thoughts, Coronation Ceremony

At this moment, everyone in the court and the country of the Daji Dynasty mentioned expanding overseas, which has become a trend of the times.

There are countless deserted islands on the sea, with wild fruits everywhere and schools of fish and shrimp. As long as they are discovered and occupied, they can alleviate famine. There are also various gold and silver mines, corals and shellfish.

Various literary works describing the expansion of overseas land have emerged and are selling like crazy on the market. Readers are all yearning for it. Wu Yi has participated in the emergence of these literary works one by one. This powerful trend of thought was promoted by Wu Yi and Prince Jiang Qi.

After this trend of thought emerged, those who still had surplus food at home might just listen to it as a story, but those families who had no food for the winter at home had to really choose to take this path.

There are countless people going out to sea every day. Many people can't squeeze into the big boat, so they just paddle a small wooden board and drift on the sea for a few days. If they are lucky, they can also find an island.

In order to provide shelter for these disaster victims, Wu Yi also deliberately took overseas mountains and built a string of islands in the shallow sea, like pearls, large or small, inlaid around the mainland, tens of miles away, hundreds of miles away. If it is farther away, the risk is too great and the gain does not outweigh the loss. Wu Yi did not move the mountains.

The people living on these islands, from tens of thousands at the beginning, to millions, tens of millions, and now, there are tens of millions. It is not an exaggeration to say that the people of the Daji Dynasty have undergone a large population migration.

People from all regions and directions, facing the ocean that they used to fear as a natural danger, resolutely chose to go to sea under the pressure of life and death.

Sea charts are flooded, and the locations of major islands, the locations of various reefs, which sea areas have a lot of fish, what the fish are, hydrological and astronomical phenomena, etc. are circulated on the market.

At the beginning, Prince Jiang Qi was very worried about people's migration overseas, and he imposed restrictions everywhere. However, the impact of the cold wave could not be lifted in a short time, and grain production could not be increased at all. The planting industry could not obtain enough food. If they did not expand overseas and develop fisheries, what else could they do?

Policies cannot solve practical problems, and the people will naturally vote with their feet, breaking through the obstacles set by Prince Jiang Qi and throwing themselves into the arms of the Lord of the West Sea.

Seeing that this situation could not be changed, Prince Jiang Qi simply changed his mind and began to plan to set up counties on the deserted island. You must know that some large deserted islands are not much different from ordinary counties. Theoretically, there is no problem at all. The only problem is only one.

That is the view of the Lord of the West Sea, that is, Wu Yi.

Facing Prince Jiang Qi's little thoughts, as long as it does not involve his own vital interests, Wu Yi pretends not to know at all. Once it involves his own vital interests, he will counterattack crazily.

What is Wu Yi's vital interest? To put it simply, there must be no gods on these deserted islands that Wu Yi does not recognize, especially the city god system of the mainland. This is Wu Yi's lifeline. He worked hard to get into the mainland, but his family had problems. Isn't this a trick?

Prince Jiang Qi actually tried to touch Wu Yi's reverse scale, but Wu Yi showed no mercy. He raised a big wave and submerged the island where the heresy appeared. Tens of thousands of disaster victims were fed to fish. Iron-blooded means, the effect is also extremely significant.

From then on, whether it was ordinary people or officials sent by the Daji Dynasty, there was no idea of ​​welcoming new gods recklessly. Even the first thing a new official did when he took office was to lead the people to worship the Lord of the West Sea, begging for the Lord of the West Sea's blessing, rich catches, no wind and waves, etc.

There are three feet of waves on the sea without wind, which is very risky. In order to save your life and harvest, if you don't worship Wu Yi, will it work if you worship others? Let me ask again, is it useful? Is a god worthy of worship if he cannot even meet the demands of his own believers? The value of a god is measured by whether he is useful or not.

On these deserted islands, the Temple of the Sea God has become a state religion, on par with the imperial power, or even higher, but Wu Yi does not interfere in worldly affairs, and it does not matter if he does not interfere with the well water.

Wu Yi repeatedly asked Prince Jiang Qi to welcome the Temple of the Sea God as a state sacrifice, but the other party was willing to cede everything, and he would not give up on this point even if he died.

After several failed negotiations, Wu Yi no longer started from a high position, but chose to start from the bottom. As long as there are enough believers, it is only a matter of time before it becomes a state religion.

Prince Jiang Qi can stop me for a while, but can he stop me for a lifetime?

Finally, it is worth mentioning that Prince Jiang Qi ascended the throne. After the death of the previous emperor, Zhongdu City was in chaos for a while, but Wu Yi entered the scene strongly and changed the balance of power.

Especially the opening of the deserted island for Prince Jiang Qi to raise his family, the people of the world are all attracted to it, even the people in the army began to be unable to suppress the lower class, and as a last resort, someone in Zhongdu City proposed to welcome Prince Jiang Qi and sent an extremely luxurious team.

Prince Jiang Qi knew that his status could not suppress Zhongdu City at all. He took the jade seal, but did not return to Zhongdu City, but kept wandering outside. The nominal reason was that the cold wave was endless and he would never return to the city. In fact, there was only one reason, fear of death.

But the people are always easy to deceive, and this operation once again won a lot of points for Prince Jiang Qi. Everyone was even more devoted to him.

In summer, the snow finally stopped falling, and the ice and snow began to melt in some southern areas. The court officials once again suggested that Prince Jiang Qi enter Zhongdu City, otherwise it would be unjustifiable.

After half a year of beating and differentiation, the training ground for the team around Prince Jiang Qi was almost ready, especially with the advancement of overseas expansion, his brothers had completely lost the qualification to compete with him for the world.

So, after a lot of persuasion and resignation, Prince Jiang Qi started his new journey.

As his most solid ally, Prince Jiang Qi invited Wu Yi to participate in his coronation ceremony. Wu Yi did not agree, not because he did not want to go, nor because he could not go. With Wu Yi's current prestige in the Great Ji Dynasty, even if he appeared in broad daylight, it would not be a big problem, and the people would only worship and cheer.

The real reason why Wu Yi did not go was because the West Sea Reincarnation System had reached a critical turning point in its transformation, that is, the construction of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. Once the Six Paths of Reincarnation were successfully constructed, the significance to Wu Yi was immeasurable.

Because of this, Wu Yi did not have much energy to participate in Prince Jiang Qi's coronation ceremony, and the other party thought that Wu Yi looked down on him. As a last resort, Wu Yi could only promise that at the time of his coronation ceremony, the divine will would appear and congratulate him. As for his real body, Wu Yi would not go.
