I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

The two Roman envoys couldn't help being stunned when they saw Cao Mao sitting on the throne with a distinct oriental face.

Although before coming, they knew that Assis successfully defeated Artaban and the Persians with the help of the eastern army, and regained the throne.

But they didn't expect that Assis would recognize the Emperor of the Dragon Kingdom as his master.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Cao Mao said indifferently,

"Asis, ask them why they came."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Assis walked forward slowly, and said in a deep Greek voice,
"I don't know if the two envoys have come from afar, what's your business?"

"His Royal Highness, the King of Kings, my name is Juliette, and this is Yihuus."

The older Roman envoy Julot saluted Assis, but without any respect on his face, he said softly,
"The two of us were ordered by the great Augustus, His Majesty Caracalla, to come to discuss the annual tribute amount with the Parthian Empire."

A few decades ago, the previous Roman emperor, Severus, the father of Caracalla, led an army to invade the Parthian Empire, Mesopotamia ruled by the Parthian Empire.

As a result, the Romans conquered Seleucia and Ctesiphon along the Euphrates River.

Assis's grandfather Vologis V had no choice but to pay tribute to the Romans to seek peace for the stability of the empire.

It was not until last year that the current Roman Emperor Caracalla broke the agreement between the two parties and led the Romans to invade the Parthian Empire again, that Artaban did not continue to pay tribute.

Assis did not expect the Romans to be so brazen.

He frowned, glanced at Cao Mao, and found that Cao Mao didn't do anything, so he said coldly,
"Your Roman emperor has already torn up the covenant of the past, so how can he still have the face to send you here?"

Yi Hughes on the side sneered and said disdainfully,

"What we want to discuss is the current covenant."

"What do you mean by that?"

Assis looked puzzled.

"Our great emperor said that we can re-sign the covenant. It is enough for you to pay [-] million denae a year. In exchange, we Romans will no longer invade the Parthian Empire."

Juliette smiled.

As soon as the words came out, Yasis' eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what he heard.

Not to mention where Caracalla's confidence comes from.

When his grandfather was defeated and he paid tribute to seek peace, Severus offered only 5000 million per year.

However, Caracalla dared to ask for [-] million Denaeus, what a lion!
Assis laughed angrily,
"What if I don't pay tribute?"

"If you don't pay tribute, our Roman army will never stop, continue the feat of the greatest Parthian conqueror of the year, and completely conquer your Parthian Empire!"

Yi Hughes looked indifferent, and his words were threatening.

Severus was invincible all the way back then, and returned home after taking Tessiphon, and won the title of the greatest Parthian conqueror!

"you!"

Assis gritted his teeth angrily, staring fixedly at the two Roman envoys.

At this moment, Cao Mao, who had been silent for a long time, slowly opened his mouth and said,

"Asis, what are they talking about?"

Assis took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and told Cao Mao the conditions offered by the Roman envoy.

After hearing this, Cao Mao smiled, very brightly,

"Tell them that [-] million Denaeus is too little, at least [-] million!"

"what?"

Assis was dumbfounded.

"Why are you standing still? Tell them soon."

Cao Mao urged.

Yasis really couldn't figure out why Cao Mao would say such a thing.

But he could only bite the bullet and relay Cao Mao's words to the two Roman envoys.

After hearing this, Juliet and Yihuus also opened their mouths in surprise.

Before coming, they both felt that the Parthians would definitely not agree to such a condition, and even discussed how to force Assis to agree.

But the two of them never expected that the Emperor of the Dragon Kingdom, who commanded the Anxi Empire, would take the initiative to increase the price again!
After a short period of stupefaction, the two were ecstatic!

"No problem, no problem at all!"

"Please rest assured, the Emperor of the Dragon Kingdom, as long as we can receive the money, we will never invade the Dragon Empire in the future!"

The two said with wide smiles.

In their opinion, it must be that the emperor of the Dragon Empire was afraid of the Roman Empire, that's why they made such a condition.

"I wonder when we will start trading?"

Juliet said carefully.

"Anytime, depending on when you Romans are free."

Cao Mao smiled lightly.

"In that case, why not next month, in Abil, east of the Tigris River, how about we make a deal?"

Yi Hughes pondered for a moment and suggested.

"Yes. But I have a request."

"If Your Majesty wants anything, just ask!"

Yi Hughes said with a smile.

As long as he can get [-] million denaeus from Dragon Kingdom, Emperor Caracalla will reward him heavily after returning.

As long as the conditions of the Emperor of the Dragon Kingdom are not excessive, he can agree to it.

"I hope you Romans can increase the silver content in silver coins."

Cao Mao put forward his request.

But hearing this, Yi Hughes was taken aback, and immediately frowned and said,
"What does His Majesty mean by this?"

Didn't the people of the Dragon Kingdom pay tribute coins to the Romans? Why did the emperor of the Dragon Kingdom ask them to increase the silver content in the silver coins?

"It's not interesting. I heard that your emperor Caracalla, because of the lack of money supply, ordered to reduce the silver content of Roman coins to pay for the empire's expenses."

Cao Mao shrugged his shoulders,

"In this way, the silver coins you pay me as tribute will not be so valuable."

Yi Hughes' face darkened, and he said coldly,

"Is Your Majesty playing tricks on us?"

"Where did I play tricks on you?"

Cao Mao clapped his hands and laughed loudly,
"You guys misunderstood me!"

He paused, put away the smile on his face, his face was cold and authentic,
"What I mean is that you Romans pay [-] million denarius to the Dragon Empire every year. In exchange, I can promise not to attack the Roman Empire!"

Yasis almost laughed out loud!

Your Majesty was indeed playing tricks on the Romans just now!

This is the domineering and fearless Majesty I know!

The two Roman envoys were not in such a good mood.

"Emperor of the Dragon Kingdom, I advise you to think twice!"

Yi Hughes suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at Cao Mao indifferently,

"Do you know the fate of offending the Roman Empire?!"

"I know, of course I know!"

Cao Mao nodded,

"But do you know the fate of offending my Dragon Empire?!"

Seeing that he didn't care about the Roman Empire so much, Yihuus and Julot almost lost their temper and went crazy!

Although the Roman Empire, the Parthia Empire, the Guishuang Empire, and the Han Empire are collectively known as the Four Great Empires in history.

But the most powerful ones belong to the Roman Empire and the Han Empire!
