Chapter 325: The Prosperity of the Qi Kingdom

In the following time,

The world has also entered a stage of a little peace.

It's not that the Qi State and the Qin State don't want to continue to expand, but the fruit swallowed this time is really a bit big, and it takes time to digest it slowly.

On the side of the Qi country,

It took almost a year and a half to completely annex the state of Chu.

During this period,

Guan Zhong sent people to re-measure the land of the Chu State, and counted the population of each county, as well as the grain output of each region, what resources it had, and many other information, all of which were collected and sorted out and included in the large database of the Qi State.

Now, the time has come to the ninth year of Qitian. 🄼.𝙫𝙤𝙙𝓣𝕎.🄲𝓞🅼

That is, the tenth year of Han Lin's reign.

This year's time is actually quite special.

Because in the previous life that Ye Qingqiu experienced, this was the last year of Han Lin's reign, and it was also the year when the old Qi dynasty collapsed.

During the year,

The territory of Qi is full of smoke,

Countless desperate people rose up.

Also in this year,

Ye Qingqiu led his army to break through Linzi City, beheaded Han Lin, and eventually became the empress of Qi.

Completed the Ye Dynasty Qi.

Yet in this life,

Ye Qingqiu had been waiting for ten years, and what he was looking forward to had not appeared at all in Qi Country.

There are no natural disasters such as droughts, locusts, floods, etc.

There is no picture of the people struggling to make a living, and the rod is revealed.

some

Only the national strength of Qi is constantly thriving.

An unprecedented era of great Qi created by Han Lin.

Just last year, the country of Qi once again ushered in an unprecedented bumper harvest.

Countless grains of wheat, rice, and so on were piled up in all the granaries within the entire territory of Qi State.

Even

The imperial court had to temporarily build granaries in various states and counties of Qi to store these mountains of grain.

Moreover, these grains are only taxes on the grain.

At present, the grain tax of Qi is 30 percent, that is, 30 percent.

Don't look at it seems that Qi Guo charges very much,

In fact, this is because Han Lin has canceled most of the taxes.

For example, the poll tax is a fixed amount of tax.

Instead, all percentages are used, and if the grain yield is high, there will be more harvest, and if the grain yield is low, the harvest will be less.

In this way,

There would not be a time of famine, when the people would have no harvest in their fields and still have to face high taxes.

merely

Due to the existence of the national sports BUFF,

Since the reign of Han Lin, the state of Qi has always been smooth and rainy, and there has never been a natural disaster.

In this case, it is a good harvest almost every year.

In the hands of hundreds of people, the surplus grain stored can ensure that the family does not have to worry about food for three or four years.

It can be said that such a level of affluence has reached an unprecedented height in ancient times.

After all, in the current era of low productivity,

The greatest long-cherished wish of hundreds of people is to be able to eat a full meal.

But in the country of Qi,

On the premise that you have completed a full meal,

The people who had money to spare began to pursue a life of physical pleasure.

Entertainment venues such as bars, dance halls, gambling houses, bathing centers, etc.,

Now it has not only appeared in the large cities of Qi State, but has spread to the entire territory of Qi State, all county towns and even county seats.

You know,

Placed in the past,

Entertainment venues like this with high consumption,

It can only be built in large castles where wealthy families gather.

If it is built in an ordinary county, there are not many people who can come to consume it, and only a small number of large families can have the money to enjoy here.

But now,

After years of development,

As the people gradually became richer, these entertainment venues had already opened their doors to them.

But wherever there are more people in the county, there are many entertainment venues.

Even

These places are full every day.

It was a hard day for these people.

In the evening, go and relax, it's like a paradise on earth.

If you put it in the past,

Ordinary people work every day at sunrise and rest at sunset.

This kind of life, day after day, year after year, toiling in the fields every day.

so-called entertainment,

There are only villains after dark.

However, even under such hard work, even the most basic food and clothing problems for the people are a luxury.

Especially in the event of a natural disaster or war,

Hundreds of people have been displaced.

Such a cruel picture, placed in the current Qi country, seems to be extinct.

The country of Qi without curfew,

After dark,

It's not just large cities like Linzi, Handan, and Jinling.

Even in ordinary county towns and county seats, they are all brilliantly lit.

In the night market, there is a lot of people.

The vendors shouted to sell their goods, and the people looked at the dazzling array of goods and felt the prosperity.

Green houses, gambling houses, bars, dance halls, bathing centers, etc., these entertainment venues are even more crowded.
