After the two world-shaking wars came to an end,

the whole world,

They all ushered in a strange peace.

Mainly because of the seemingly calm surface now, as the countries in the world are divided into two different camps, a strong smell of gunpowder has begun to fill the air.

The feeling of impending rain made many monarchs feel very depressed.

However,

As Qi and Qin recuperate, ?.?????.???

Among the countries, there was a rare situation where the whole world was at peace.

Under the current situation,

The kings of all countries have become honest.

For fear of becoming the target of the game between great powers,

Zhao and Chu also licked their wounds and seized the time to restore their national strength.

Throughout the second half of the fourth year of Qitian,

In this situation full of gunpowder, it was very peaceful.

During this half year,

There is no country in the whole world that goes to war.

Such a strange scene can be said to be the first time since the war between the countries.

When the time comes to Qitian five years,

This is already Han Lin’s sixth year of traveling.

The reason why it is the sixth one is

Or because the national title was only established in the second year after he ascended the throne.

During this year,

Nothing major happened in Qi State.

Han Lin seemed to have temporarily forgotten about Chu State.

During this time,

He always stayed in the Jinque Terrace, playing with the concubines in the harem.

happy days,

Full of 'boring' and 'boring'.

This winter,

More than half of the city expansion work in Linzi City has been completed.

at the same time,

Han Lin also specially found many skilled carpenters, and after a period of practice, he created many ice sculptures outside Linzi City.

The ice sculptures not only include pavilions and pavilions, but also Daqi elites holding swords and guns.

In Linzi City,

The many beautiful ice sculptures attract countless tourists to visit.

Moreover, Han Lin also asked people to build a simple ski resort on some slopes with moderate slopes.

Tourists can sit on wooden skis and slide down the snowy slopes.

An unprecedented way of entertainment,

It attracts countless tourists every day.

Although the weather in winter is cold and windy, it does not stop these people from having fun.

Due to the current prosperity of Qi State,

In winter, it is rare for people to freeze to death.

Here,

It is also because there are no natural disasters in Qi.

Although winter is cold, as long as you are well prepared, you can basically get through it smoothly.

Some people who had some savings heard that new entertainment methods had appeared in Linzi, and they came to experience it one after another.

In addition to ski resorts and ice sculptures,

Linzi City is also very lively.

Especially in major bathing centers,

As the court relaxed restrictions.

Now,

The major cities in Qi State, including Linzi City, Jinling City, Handan City, Jicheng, etc., among these cities with a long history and many wealthy families,

Many entertainment venues have been built one after another.

in,

Most of them are bathing centers, gambling houses, bars, etc.

And almost all of them adopt the same model as in Linzi City.

only,

There are also some restrictions on starting these entertainment industries.

The first is to obtain a license from the imperial court to operate, and the second is the tax, which is much higher than ordinary industries.

After all, this kind of industry

Each one is worth a fortune.

Han Lin didn't hold it in his hand. After all, while eating meat, he also had to make people drink some soup.

The gentry and wealthy families in various places are helping themselves to make more money while opening these industries.

And while they are operating, they will also help the court to supervise illegally operated places.

After all, there will obviously be many illegal operations among the people in this kind of profit-making thing.

Now that Han Lin has relaxed restrictions, the wealthy families who have obtained business licenses will obviously help the court to seal down illegally operated places. After all, they are competing with themselves for food.

With the coming of winter,

Far from being sluggish, these entertainment venues have continued to increase their daily passenger flow and business is extremely booming.

Especially in major bathing centers,

In this cold and windy mid-winter season, soaking in the warm pool water is probably a beautiful thing.

and,

After taking a bath,

You can also enjoy a massage from a beautiful woman.

It's like a paradise-like enjoyment, and I don't know how many people are intoxicated by it.

With the boom in tourism and service industries,

Qi's tax revenue is also rising at a rocket-like speed.

besides,

In terms of agriculture, Qi once again achieved a bumper harvest last year.

Although a large part of the young people in Qi State were involved in various projects, the number of farmers plowing the fields was greatly reduced. In many families, women even plowed the fields.

However, this did not affect Qi's grain output at all.

After all, Qi has a national sports-level buff, and in the past few years, there has never been a natural disaster, and the weather has been smooth every year.

in this case,

Qi's grain output is rising every year.

Last year, it was after another great harvest.

The grain depots of Qi State were once again filled to the brim.

militarily,

Qi State currently only retains a standing army of 500,000 in addition to the security forces in various counties and counties.

Don't look at ancient wars. Hundreds of thousands of people went out to fight at every turn.

but,

Most of them are support staff.

That is to say, there may not even be half, or even only one-third or one-fourth, of the front-line personnel responsible for delivering food and the like who can actually participate in the battle.

After all, the leader of the army is out there,

The food consumed every day needs to be continuously transported from the rear.

Moreover, due to the low production capacity in ancient times,

Therefore, there is no way to organize a large number of completely off-duty standing armies.

After all, the greater the number of standing armies, the more people would be unable to participate in farming.

in this case,

The farming system came into being.

The same is true for Qi's current standing army of 500,000.

first,

Qi State was divided into four military regions by Han Lin.

Except for Linzi City, the other three military regions have 100,000 troops.
