Chapter 334

Jicheng is not as prosperous as Xinzheng, nor as magnificent as Xianyang, and even less as vast as Handan. As the capital of the State of Yan, it has enough historical weight. Since the enfeoffment of the feudal lords by King Wu of Zhou and the establishment of the State of Yan, the State of Yan has established its capital here for several hundred years.

From ancient times to the present, although this capital has been expanded several times, it cannot be considered large.

Fortunately, the State of Yan does not have only this one capital; it has two other capitals, the Middle Capital and the Lower Capital.

The State of Yan is also a rare "three-capital" system in the world today.

Unfortunately, even with three capitals, it cannot change the fact that the State of Yan is weak.

In Jicheng, there are many taverns. People in the lands of Yan and Zhao like to drink, especially the State of Yan, because it is located in a remote area with a cold climate, so wine has become a necessity for their lives. "Zero three three" even the wine in the lands of Yan is much stronger than the wine in the rest of the Central Plains.

Of course, this strength is relative, after all, there is no distillation technology, and the alcohol content of the wine is always difficult to improve.

On the contrary, the fact that taverns are everywhere in the State of Yan and there are many alcoholics made Su Xuan see the unbearable situation within the State of Yan. You must know that wine is brewed from grain. The State of Qin has corresponding legal restrictions on the brewing and selling of wine.

The State of Yan, however, has no such restrictions.

This means that the monarch of the State of Yan does not care about grain being wasted at all, and does not care how much grain there is in the country. Such a monarch, after the war starts, is probably not even clear about how many troops he can mobilize in the country.

Besides this, in Jicheng, Su Xuan also saw many song and dance music workshops.
