As immigrants arrived in Chang'an City one after another, the surrounding area of Chang'an suddenly became noisy and busy.

In order to supplement the shortage of the army, Yang Hao began to recruit soldiers again in Daqi, but this time the recruitment was very enthusiastic.

As soon as the news of the conscription came out, the men of school age in Chang'an City couldn't wait to go to the conscription selection site, hoping that they could become a member of the Daqi army.

It's just that Yang Hao didn't plan to expand the army on a large scale, but only planned to maintain the army at about two thousand.

For a small country of 780,000 people, it is not easy to maintain a standing army of 2,000 people.

Yang Hao wanted elite soldiers, so the material consumption of the Great Qi army was very huge.

Although this year's grain harvest is still not enough for the Rupu people, people live not just to eat.

Whether it is food, clothing, housing and transportation, copper coins are needed to buy in Daqi, and the value of these things is much more expensive, and it is also a necessity for everyone's life.

When civilians used to have one meal a day, they hoped to have two meals a day a day, but when they could eat two meals a day, most people were not satisfied with this status quo.

They also wanted to wear fancy clothes, live in brick and wood houses, and use some beautiful utensils.

But it all takes money, and this year's harvest will only keep them from starvation.

But being able to join the army, these fantasies can become reality, and after the Battle of Qixia, the rewards of the soldiers can be said to be the envy of everyone who has ideals and pursuits.

In addition to the respectable status, the rich material rewards are the most attractive to them.

An ordinary soldier's annual income is equivalent to half of a person's land for a year, not to mention that these soldiers have much more land than ordinary people, and these lands can also be cultivated by the state on their behalf.

Moreover, in the army, the food is the best, and the use is also the best, and if an officer withholds his salary, or only allows a soldier to eat two meals a day, then the officer is the end.

With such treatment, in the eyes of ordinary people, becoming a soldier is the fastest shortcut to get ahead.

Yang Hao abolished the rigid class and gave ordinary people a channel for promotion, which greatly enhanced the enthusiasm of the common people and their sense of belonging to this new country.

The conscription operation was over after only a week, and the new recruits were the strongest among the civilian population.

Those who lost the election were inevitably disappointed, and these people began to look forward to war in their hearts.

Only by war can Qi expand the establishment of the army again, so that it will have another chance.

But soon these people were distracted from the loss of the election.

The Great Qi court issued a new decree that the city of Chang'an should be expanded and that roads leading to the remaining two cities should be built.

This is good news for ordinary people, which means that they can have a new source of income in this cold winter, and if they are lucky, they may even have one meal left.

On the twentieth day of the first month of the first year of Hongwu, Yang Hao ordered the expansion of Chang'an City, and the new city wall was completely masonry structure, and the planned height of the city wall was as high as eight meters, and four people were allowed to pass on the city wall, and the concept of Weng City was added for the first time.

This is a huge project, and it is conceivable that after the construction of the new city wall, it can be called the first heroic city in the world.

It is almost impossible for the enemy to break through from the outside.

Although the new Chang'an City is a giant in this era, it is not even a small county town in the long history of 5,000 years.

Officials from the Ministry of Industry sent a large number of people to begin surveying the periphery of Chang'an City, planning according to the drawings.

With the participation of a large number of people and newly joined captives, the outskirts of Chang'an City soon became a busy construction site.

As for those expensive bronze tools, they were all handed over to the citizens of Chang'an City to use, and Yang Hao was not at ease with those captives.

Although bronze tools are not professional weapons, they are much more lethal than stone tools and wood, and if those captives have hot heads and use these things to rebel against themselves, then they will be lifting stones and shooting themselves in the foot.

Most of the soldiers were urgently sent out to act as overseers, keeping a close watch on these people.

With the continuous increase of immigrants, the small Chang'an City Zhou Dynasty itself gathered more than 40,000 people, so many people gathered together, as long as there is an accident, it will not be a trivial matter.

These people gathered in Chang'an City for less than ten days, and Yang Hao ordered the establishment of a town every five miles around Chang'an City, and the population of each town was about 1,000 people, and the captives of each town were responsible for the construction of roads in that town in addition to the rammed earth wall.

Civil officials at the grassroots level who only know a little bit of literacy are appointed as mayors of towns to deal with the livelihood of the people in that town.

The only role of the military attache was to maintain law and order and supervise the work of the prisoners.

When the territory of Qi was in full swing, on the tenth day of the second month of the first year of Hongwu, the officials stationed in the new city near the Great Lake came with news that Ren Yu, the leader of the still clan, was going to pay a friendly visit to Daqi.

Although there is only one country in the true sense of the word in this era, in Yang Hao's view, every clan or those Fang countries is a country.

Ren Yu's visit, he also attaches great importance to it, at least it is the first meeting between the leaders of the two countries, and at the small point it is his Yang Hao's brother-in-law.

Yang Hao took out a blank bamboo slip and wrote some greetings on it, such as how to welcome You's visit to Yunyun, and asked the rider to send this very casual letter to Xincheng.

In order to welcome Ren Hao's arrival, Yang Hao asked people to clean the palace, and cleaned up a courtyard house style built for him Yang Hao in the city, as a place for Ren Yu and others to stay.

is so grand, it can be said to give enough face.

And Pu Jia, who is already pregnant, is naturally very happy to hear that Ren Yu is coming, with her gentle personality and excellent appearance, it can be said that she has completely secured the position of the first person in her harem in the past six months.

On the surface, the same girl is also a good sister, but as for the actual relationship between the two, it is not enough for outsiders.

In the harem of Daqi, if you want to say what is the most popular, it is naturally the black and white bear with long shoulders and round waist.

Since this guy was raised by humans since he was a child, he is very close to people, and then strengthens Yang Hao's love for him, the Qi people have regarded it as a divine beast, and it is also an important factor in maintaining the stability of Yang Hao's harem.

On February 15 of the first year of Hongwu, the leader of the Youyi clan officially arrived in Chang'an City and began a friendly visit to the Qi State.
