Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 28: The Uncrowned King

By the way, there is one more thing, and that is to prepare 200,000 dinars to buy the strongest gladiators in various places. I made an agreement with Dio to fight with him at the Apollo Festival.

200,000 dinars?

Yulia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, Is it necessary to do this? The money is enough to buy 100 Capua champions.

It is necessary, this is a gamble of one hundred thousand dinars.

Levi said.

So you took out 200,000 dinars to buy a gladiator?

Yulia couldn't help rolling her eyes.

All right.

Yulia doesn't intend to argue with Li Wei on this matter, anyway, 200,000 dinars are just a few days' income to Li Wei.

The next morning, inside the Admiral's Mansion in Campania.

After hearing what Olus said, an old man with a receding hairline was very disdainful.

It's really reckless for a little kid to have to live with our family forever.

He didn't take us seriously at all. I think the administrator's idea is very good, and we should agree.

Olus said.

Guta glanced at him, then sighed deeply, this son can really cause trouble for him.

You sent someone to say that you would cooperate with Li Wei to produce sugar, and you and Dio secretly pushed up the price of beets.

Guta said.

That's right, Dio said that little furry kid knows something, as long as he is scared, he might hand over the sugar formula.

Aulus groaned.

Dio is not a good thing, he is trying to drag you into the water, do you understand?

Guta said.

I understand that he has a grudge against Li Wei, so he wants to drag me to deal with him together.

Olus said disdainfully.

Guta nodded. It seemed that his child was not so stupid as to be hopeless. He continued: Then you think Li Wei is so easy to deal with?

It's hard to deal with, but as long as you get the white sugar formula, everything is worth it. Father, you have also seen that in just less than two months, Levi has accumulated a wealth of nearly one million dinars How much money can we make in a year! As long as we have this money, we can do whatever we want!

Aulus said excitedly.

Guta nodded, since his child has already made a decision, let's do it, and let that arrogant kid know how powerful they are.

At this moment, a slave suddenly said outside: Master, we have heard a very important piece of news.

what news?

Guta asked.

Li Wei sent people to the city to recruit guards again.

2000 is not enough, how much more does he plan to recruit?

Aulus said with envy and hatred, if only he could be so rich.

Ten thousand, all of them must be Roman citizens.

What did you say? How many?

Guta said in shock.

Ten thousand! You heard that right, ten thousand. There are simply not enough people in the city. They have already sent people to the surrounding towns to recruit people.

said the slave.

Both Guta and Aulus were stunned in shock, not knowing what to say.

Madman! What a lunatic!!

Guta couldn't help cursing.

What a ruthless person!

Aulus murmured, this is a big move when there is a disagreement, and a few people can stand it.

If it is said that Li Wei only had a very important influence on Capua in the past, then he will definitely be the uncrowned king of Capua in the future.

It is by no means a joke that Capua's matter can be resolved by him. As long as Li Wei passes this level, they will surely suffer Li Wei's crazy revenge.

At that time, immortality may not be empty talk!

For the first time Aulus saw fear in his father's eyes,

confused.

I will never die...

Guta murmured.

***

With the end of the banquet, the nobles in Capua knew about the conflict between Li Wei and the administrator and the admiral.

This Li Wei is really too reckless, maybe he will suffer a big loss this time.

Old Tullius said with a sigh.

Father, what do you think the administrator will do?

asked little Tullius.

It was nothing more than taking advantage of the fact that the guards hadn't established their loyalty to the family, they broke into the Li Wei family in the name of the official, and took away a few slaves who produced sugar.

said old Tullius.

I'm afraid that many people will die.

Tullius frowned.

So be fast, be ruthless, and be able to scare Li Wei and his guards, so as to reduce casualties. This is why Saiyanus must join forces with Guta. Only Guta can deal with Li Wei in Capua one person.

said old Tullius.

Then what do you think we should do?

asked Tullius.

of course……

At this moment, their housekeeper suddenly yelled outside.

Master, something serious happened.

What's up?

asked Tullius.

The steward walked in with a look of shock, and then said: Li Wei... He announced that he will recruit 10,000 guards, and all guards must be Roman citizens.

Hearing this, Tullius and his son were shocked.

It's really... What a stupid person, what a ruthless person.

said old Tullius.

They knew better than anyone what it meant to be a Roman citizen of the two legions.

It means that as long as Li Wei can pass this level, he will completely dominate Capua.

Just to spend almost four million dinars a year for it, is it worth it?

We'll have to wait.

Old Tullius said with a bitter face.

It's really reckless.

In Nias's manor, after learning about the banquet, Scipio sighed.

This made him a little disappointed in Li Wei. He thought Li Wei was a pretty amazing boy.

Yeah, Li Wei's foundation is too shallow. If Guta and Saiyanus join forces, they may really succeed.

Nias said.

There are not many people in Capua who can help Li Wei, and Scipio is definitely one of them.

Once Scipio and Li Wei join forces and take advantage of Scipio's huge prestige, Li Wei can completely offset the official pressure.

But Guta has a large number of soldiers, and these are people with citizenship rights.

Coupled with the power of Saiganus, the strength of the two sides is actually not much different.

It is impossible for Scipio to offend Guta and Saiyanus for Livi.

Should we still contact Levi?

Nias asked.

Wait a little longer.

Scipio said.

Sure enough, Nias thought, Li Wei's future is not good.

At this moment, the butler of Nias rushed in and said, Master, someone just found this notice on a tree outside the manor. I thought it was interesting, so I brought it here.

What announcement?

Nias asked curiously.

His butler is not a person who doesn't know the importance. Since he brought the notice, it means that the notice is very important.

The steward handed over the notice to Nias, and Nias couldn't help being shocked after reading it.

This... this is impossible!
