514, Carthage.
According to Yamazaki's wishes, Xiwa announced the new rules to the slaves in the name of his mistress, and received unanimous support. Just like Yamazaki said, even if some people doubt it, they will not object because they are all winners.
Yamazaki took over the Gron family's finances through Shiwa, but Meidaizi was not interested at all. She just wanted to grow up quickly and go out to play when she grew up.
The property of the Gelong family is divided into four parts. One is the gold coins exchanged for the treasures stolen in the past, the other is the slaves in the family, the third is the livestock, and the fourth is weapons, tents and other items.
Keeping gold coins will only make others jealous. Investment is the best way out. God happens to be there. Under the witness of God, no one dares to risk messing with the contract signed.
Slaves have to be raised. This is a product of the times. Even if you want to liberate slaves, many slaves don't want to. Without their masters, they can't support themselves.
Animals need to be marked to record their growth and facilitate management.
As for the weapons, they are so bad that they are completely incomparable to the weapons of the 20th century.
Yamazaki still felt that he had done a good job. Although he didn't know how to open a furnace to create weapons, once the sacred space was constructed, he could make them there. Now they should be at the level of divine weapons and sharp blades.
In the holy space, as long as you use your imagination, you can create anything, but purely thinking requires a lot of faith.
It's best to prepare the materials and then create them, just like the alchemy in the novel.
Yamazaki and Meidaizi know the structure of some firearms, but in this era, they should still use crossbows. Personal crossbows made of twentieth-century materials can be comparable to large crossbows in this era.
In addition, Yamazaki has collected nuclear weapons and analyzed their structures, but he probably won't be able to use them. …
Carthage, port.
The slave warrior Fro and the clerk Andreas took gold coins to invest in the Chamber of Commerce and found a suitable chamber of commerce, the Moteros Chamber of Commerce.
First of all, it is a small chamber of commerce, so that it will be taken seriously. After all, relatively speaking, there is not much money.
Secondly, if the crew is energetic, it means that the company has a future. If the crew is listless, it means that the cohesion is poor and it is easy for problems to occur.
Go to the Temple of Apollo to sign a contract. The Gronn family will take half of the caravan's income. If they break up, they will take half according to the size of the caravan at that time.
Although the god of business is Hermes, Apollo is the protector who can ensure that contracts are executed.
With the money from the Gron family, the Motros caravan can expand into large small chambers of commerce. As for whether to buy ships to expand its scale and continue to resell wine and wheat in the north and south of the Mediterranean, or to resell high-value commodities, that depends on the business. The team's.
In short, the Gron family only collects money.
As for risks, with the sea god Poseidon, there will be no natural risks in trading in the Mediterranean. There are currently no pirates, and there is no major conflict between the Ostrogothic Kingdom and the Visigothic Kingdom and the Vandal Alan Kingdom.
It is a pity that the trade routes to India were under the control of the Eastern Romans, otherwise they could resell Indian spices and gems, as well as silk porcelain from the Central Plains. …
The first batch of profits arrived in October, and in the name of hunting, they were exchanged for iron ore to create weapons, which were forged by the family's slaves.
In four years, relying on the faith of thousands of animals dedicated every day, Yamazaki built a small sanctuary one-eighth the size of a holy robe box, which was enough to make small swords.
However, Yamasaki doesn’t want to mass-produce yet, he just wants to dress up the slaves he’s close to.
Collect or refine materials other than iron from the soil, and create them based on the metals in nuclear weapons. I only know that one, and slowly explore the others.
As for the effect, it is normal to cut iron like clay. It is enough to defend against all human weapons when made into chain armor, and it is very light.
For ballistas and the like, a direct hit from the front and shock damage would be fatal enough.
Give the female slave leader Siva and the slave warrior Fro a set of equipment each, including full-body chainmail and face armor. Siva is a dagger, and Fro is a pair of scimitars.
The chain mail jackets were worn under the leather armor and on top of the undergarments, and the lower body was usually worn without trousers during the war because of the hot weather.
The chainmail has no burrs, no scratches, and there should be no problem with being corroded by sweat.
The reactions of Siva and Flo were extremely surprising, especially Flo. After experimenting with the power, he even knelt on the ground and kissed his feet. …
In a blink of an eye, it's the end of the year again, taxes have to be paid again, and the tribe holds another round of voting, but this time the rich people don't agree.
Even if it's for the tribe, it doesn't make sense that they can't help every year, and that their help is in vain.
Therefore, people who cannot pay taxes have two choices: one is to be unable to pay taxes and be captured as a slave; the other is to default on the IOU and become a slave if the debt is not paid in the coming year.
As a result, it was naturally the second one.
However, Yamazaki doesn't think so that they will repay the money properly in the coming year. …
515 years.
The slaves of the Gron family ate well and slept well, becoming stronger and stronger, and some slave families living together also welcomed newborn babies.
Among them, there were two dystocias, and Yamazaki helped deliver them, using the Holy Land.
Although it takes a lot of faith to move the child to the sacred realm and then to reality, it is also happy.
Of course, this move was not seen by anyone, and it was just regarded as a blessing from Yamazaki and a turn of events. …
In the spring, Yamazaki made an alloy hand crossbow, but it required a hand to pull it, and it was a bit too powerful. Instead of giving it away, he gave it to Mei Daizi to play with.
I made a batch of hand crossbows of this era out of wood. There were no strings. Half of them were used for my own use and the other half were sold. I made a small fortune and exchanged some slaves for them to free up the family's labor force and give them more time. train.
Flo reorganized a special escort team, with a total of forty-nine people, equipped with metal equipment made by Yamazaki. …
In the summer, the Gelong family's guards conducted actual combat exercises to protect Yamazaki and Meidaizi when they went hunting. In fact, Yamazaki and Meidaizi discussed strengthening the Gelong family's combat effectiveness and bringing back some elephants.
It takes a long time for others to train an elephant into a war elephant. All they need to do is see the elephant.
This chapter is not finished yet, will be completed tomorrow.
