Roman Slave Owner
Chapter 18: Exploration
Are you going to sell weapons? Why did you recruit so many blacksmiths?
A gleam flashed in Tullius' eyes.
Capua's arms business is mainly done by his family, so does he plan to intervene in his own field?
There is no such plan for the time being, they are just building weapons for gladiators and guards.
Julia said.
Only then did Tulius look pale, he didn't say anything, and followed Yulia to the distance.
Soon they came to a newly built courtyard outside the manor. The courtyard was a bit messy, with no pool or garden. There are busts of gladiators decorated here, which should be the successful gladiators in their family history. Many gladiator school bosses like to do this.
Those nobles are completely different. They like to put statues of their ancestors at home, such as the most famous Scipio family. It is enough for anyone to feel the background of that kind of top aristocrat.
Passed through a colonnade full of guards, and came to a hall.
A precious nanmu round table is placed in the hall, surrounded by three long couches with bronze legs.
Romans like to lie down on a bed to eat or chat. A young man with short black hair in a linen blouse is standing beside him and looking at him quietly.
How do you do, Mr. Tullius, it is a great pleasure to meet you.
Levi said.
Now Tullius is in his thirties, and he still looks very young because of his good maintenance.
He was dressed in a white toga, well-behaved, and looked extremely well-bred.
Hello, dear Levi.
Tullius said, I have been famous for you for a long time. This time you have purchased a large number of weapons in my shop. I came here to express my gratitude.
Li Wei was a little surprised. He glanced at Yulia, and Yulia nodded. He didn't expect that the weapons they bought were purchased from the Tullius family. This is really fate.
Since the quantity you ordered is too large, I'm afraid it will take some time for us to prepare the goods.
Tullius said with a smile.
Okay then, just deliver as soon as possible, how long it takes you guys.
Li Wei signaled him to sit down, and Tullius immediately found a couch and sat down.
Estimated to take five days.
Can.
Li Wei thought for a while and said.
You are truly a magnanimous man, and may the gods bless you.
Tullius said with a smile.
After speaking, he signaled the slave behind him to open the box he was carrying, and a dagger appeared in the box.
I heard that you like to collect all kinds of weapons very much, so I bought a short sword specially. This is a short sword made by a famous craftsman in Rome. It is very good to use. I hope you like it.
Li Wei was a little surprised. He didn't expect Tullius' intelligence work to be so good. In the past, Li Wei really liked collecting all kinds of good swords, but few people knew about them.
I didn't expect to be inquired by him. Is this the strength of a veteran nobleman?
He picked up the dagger and pulled out the scabbard. The whole dagger was like a pool of autumn water, emitting a deep light.
Good sword.
Li Wei said in pretended surprise. In fact, this kind of dagger was far from the standard steel sword in his mind, and it was just for saving face.
This is the sword of a nobleman in the last Punic War. The nobleman used him to drink the blood of the Carthaginians and made great achievements for Rome.
Tullius smiled and said, this is a gift he carefully selected, which can not only reflect the heritage of the Tullius family, but also not cost too much, it is really very suitable.
It turned out to be an antique, so it has some value,
Levi thought.
Li Wei asked people to accept the dagger, and then the two lay down, and several slaves served some fruit desserts.
Tullius' eyes lit up when he saw the cakes, Is this the cake you made with white sugar?
Yes, these things taste good, welcome to taste.
Li Wei said with a smile.
Tullius picked up a piece of cake and tasted it. It's really good. It's worthy of selling for 30 dinars per pound. I don't think it will be long before white sugar will become a must for noble banquets.
In fact, Tullius is right. From the day when white sugar was born, it has existed as a necessity for nobles in the West. Its birth is a qualitative leap for Western food.
Nowadays, many people in Rome like food, and those knights and nobles who spend a lot of money on food will not only be despised, but will be praised by some people.
Some brilliant chefs are even comparable to nobles because of their high status.
The two began to chat. Tullius had received a complete aristocratic education and was extremely good at talking. He even went to Greece to study abroad and was well-informed.
Not to mention Li Wei, his amount of knowledge was explosive to the ancients, not to mention much.
The two talked about each other, and they had a preliminary understanding of each other.
By the way, have you heard that Su La negotiated peace with the King of Bendu?
said little Tullius, looking darkly into his eyes.
Li Wei's heart moved, and he pretended to be casual and said: I heard that Febria is so stupid that she surrendered without fighting. It is a shame for us Romans.
During this period of time, the war situation in the East changed again. After Sura and the king of Bendu negotiated a peace, they immediately forced Febria.
Febria didn't dare to fight Sulla at all. Sulla sent soldiers to lure the Roman soldiers under Febriia, and all the Roman soldiers turned to Sulla, which surprised many Romans.
Sura was indeed an outstanding man. Athens and Pontus were defeated by 300,000 people, and so many Romans surrendered without a fight.
Little Tullius said with a look of admiration.
Li Wei deeply agrees with this, and does not know whether the Greeks and Pontus are too useless, or the Romans are too strong.
Sulla actually defeated so many enemies with more than 30,000 people, and the Romans defeated tens of thousands of enemies in every battle, and his own losses were only a few dozen.
Except for Sulla, Rome has produced many real famous players in recent years.
For example, Marius, Sulla, Luscus, Pompey and Caesar, they all achieved brilliant results, captured cities and lands, and spread the glory of Rome in all directions.
But they supported their own self-respect, marched into Rome again and again, and buried Rome with their own hands.
Although he has a good impression of Su La, Li Wei knows that he must not show it.
But he will never be our opponent, our consul Qin Na and Capo, and famous generals such as Sertorius.
Li Wei said pretending to be disdainful, and at the same time secretly gave himself a thumbs up in his heart, this acting skill is definitely at the actor's level.
Little Tullius couldn't understand, could it be that he was really just a teenager.
