Chapter 3554: Learning from the pain

Ma Chao specially brought people out of the city to pick up the Ninth Spanish Legion of Tachito. There was no other intention, so he wanted to see if all the tall horses of the Ninth Spanish Legion were gone.

Even though the information was not sent, Ma Chao still firmly believed that Sansha's persistence in this regard would definitely destroy Tachito's horse, and the reality was just as he estimated, hehehe.

"Tachito." Ma Chao greeted Tachito, who was riding Arabian horses from afar, smiling proudly, "Where are your horses? Where are the horses?"

"Get out." Tachito said angrily. Although Tachito was not dissatisfied with the large amount of silk, as mentioned before, the Romans did not have the concept of banning horses. In addition, the silk given by Li Jue was of high quality and sufficient quantity. Tachito was really scolded, but being ridiculed by Ma Chao was not a good thing.

"Your horse will not be taken away by Chi Yanghou and the others." Ma Chao cursed with a smile, "Don't tell me that your horse has shrunk after going to the Pamir Mountains."

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute." Tachito rolled his eyes, and Ma Chao was slightly stunned. This was wrong. If Sansha used despicable methods, Tachito should be by his side and complain, and then dragged him to find Li Jue's fault.

After all, Ma Chao and Tachito have a good relationship. Although Ma Chao showed off Ma Chao's face because Tachito rode a group of very cool warriors, Ma Chao sold the news to Li Jue and others, no matter how they said it, they still had a plastic brotherhood.

"To be honest, where are you?" Ma Chao said to Tachito with a smile, "Will you rob someone? Is it possible to rob someone? Isn't it robbed him of three talents before?"

"You know, I've done a business with Ma and Chi Yanghou and others." What does it mean to lose without losing? In Italy, it can be said that he was cheated by Chi Yanghou and others, but in front of Ma Chao, of course, it was said that he was relying on his super high eloquence to exchange for a batch of silk with a war horse agreement.

"You are so stupid, can you still do business?" Ma Chao mocked. Li Jue used three animals to do business, and most of the time he got you drunk, took out the documents, pressed your paws up, and then he finished all the money.

However, when Ma Chao thought of this, his heart twitched. He was also young back then, but he was played with these three things once. When Ma Chao looked at Tachito again, he obviously had a bit of a difficult expression.

"What kind of expression do you have?" Tachito looked at Ma Chao unhappily and asked, "From a box of goods, so that Brother Chao can open his eyes."

Then a box of bright silk opened in front of Ma Chao. Ma Chao was stunned. He could distinguish between tribute and top-quality products. After all, no matter how miserable Ma Chao was, he was still a marquis of the Han Dynasty. His father was in Chang'an again, so it was no problem to give Ma Chao a piece of silk clothes.

"Did you see it? Twelve boxes of this level, plus more than 4,000 top-quality silks, and more than 10,000 top-quality goods." Tachito looked like I was not losing money, but I made a big profit.

"It's hard for you, brother." Ma Chao has two countries' concepts of extremely distorted goods prices. Anyway, Roman silk is very expensive. It's so expensive that when Ma Chao returns to Chang'an, he will bring a few boxes of tribute silk when he comes. This thing is really expensive in Rome.

"I forgot that you guy is in the Han Dynasty." Tachito said unhappily.

When Ma Chao brought back a few boxes of tribute silk and sold it in the Roman Senate, someone asked this question. Ma Chao would have thought that he would have reached me. There were people in the Han Dynasty and just bought some silk, but others didn't think much about it. After all, I have never seen such an arrogant Erwuzi.

Of course, Pompianus wanted to use Ma Chao's line. After all, Ma Chao praised himself for having a face in the Han Dynasty. As a result, Pompianus asked whether this line could ship 20,000 pieces of silk every year. Ma Chao thought about his own situation, and two or three cats were too big and small, but he couldn't do it.

Then Pompianus was no longer interested, thinking that Ma Chao had probably hooked up with a certain family in the Han Dynasty and could get tribute, but large-scale shipments could not be done by most families in the Han Dynasty. After all, he had specialized in his profession.

In the early days, Pompianus also sent Ma Chao a smuggling certificate. As long as Ma Chao could get it, he could be listed for sale in the state. The money was half the price. But every time Ma Chao had no money, he would fly back to get one or two boxes of tribute silk to Italy, and then sell it in the Senate.

After more times, Pompianus understood that Ma Chao would not be able to get large-scale silk, so he ignored it. He added a few boxes of tribute silk to increase the happiness of the Roman Senate and save the trouble for those people.

Therefore, Pompianus ignored Ma Chao's behavior.

After all, a few boxes of tributes really cannot solve the problem. For Pompianus, who is in charge of national finance, tens of thousands of top-quality silks have a far higher significance to the country than a few boxes of tributes. After all, the former represents the happiness of Roman citizens, while the latter can only be used by Roman veterans.

"I can't make tribute silk recently." Ma Chao scratched his head, feeling helpless. In the past, he sold all the things accumulated by their family, but in the past two years, Ma Chao has sold almost the same thing. In addition, his wife, Armenian princess Adela, also likes silk very much, and Ma Chao has not had much goods.

"Aren't you super proud of your appearance in the Han Dynasty?" Tachito teased. Ma Chao was sarcastic in the Senate and said that he was equivalent to a marquis in the Han Dynasty.

"Get out, face cannot solve the problem, the output of this thing is limited." Ma Chao said helplessly. The entire process of tribute-level things is different from other grades. In addition to the need for special Weaver Girl, only a few families have complete technology except for state institutions.

After all, the tribute-level silk was used as tribute-level silk, only the marquis of the Han Dynasty used it as court wardrobes, cloaks, and robes. Therefore, there was not much demand in the past. Now the Roman Empire has really driven the silk industry of the Han Dynasty, but the cultivation of the Weaver Girl also takes time.

Tachito knew about this. In fact, the trade exchanges between the two sides have promoted a lot in recent years. A lot of public information can be found by checking each other.

Therefore, Rome also knew that the Han Dynasty itself could not increase the output of tributes. There was only so much in a year. The distribution to Rome may be almost the same as the Han Dynasty’s own use.

"I think I need to find someone here, it's better to find a Weaver Girl who can produce tributes by herself." Ma Chao said eroticly.

"Oh." Tachito nodded, saying that you are happy.

"By the way, is it okay if you sell the horse?" Ma Chao asked curiously. This is military supplies. If you say it, you can sell it. Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death?

"It's okay. I'll send someone to Spain to catch another batch. Generally no one pays attention to it. Even if I find it, my price will be fine." Tachito said calmly.

"Okay." Ma Chao couldn't understand the logic of Rome, but he heard good news. Is it in Spain? No problem, there happened to be a friend of Ma Chao in Spain. Ma Chao decided to visit and catch a group of him.

"Do you want to catch it yourself?" Ma Chao's thoughts were written on his face. Can Tachito not understand it?

"Is it illegal for me to catch myself?" Ma Chao asked unhappily.

"This is not, I just tell you that there is too much food for that thing." Tachito said indifferently, "Military expenses are quantitative. If you want to raise them, you need to pay for military funds yourself."

"I can hold the leg of the finance officer." Ma Chao said without any moral integrity. Tachito was silent for a while after hearing this, and then recalled the scene when Ma Chao held Caesar's leg and Virgilio couldn't even pull it away. Ma Chao could really do such a thing.

"Ahem, if you want to hug the financial officer then, remember to find me. As a brother, I will be with you." Tachito said shamelessly. If he was just him, he really couldn't do it, but if Ma Chao had already hugged him, he could hug his legs from the side for the sake of brotherhood.

Ma Chao looked at Tachito with contempt. Ma Chao also had a different sensitivity to this aspect. Tachito obviously wanted to do this, but he was not thick-skinned enough.

Just like that, Tachito returned to Rome with a batch of silk. When he passed the eastern border county, Garnasis looked at Tachito's horse with a strangeness, asked a few questions, and then was evaded by Tachito's box of tribute silk.

After all, due to the limitations of production, this thing is really short of it. This is not hunger marketing, but the real inability to produce it.

As for Sansha at this time, he finally realized how much Andalusian horses could eat. Fortunately, Sansha's fiefdom has many grasslands and many kinds of grass. If you want to store green, it is okay to raise 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. Of course, this is Sansha's idea. For Kuai Yue, he has begun to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of this horse.

Fortunately, although the cost-effectiveness of Andalusian horses is lower than that of Arabian horses, they are considered relatively balanced horse breeds. They eat more, but their combat effectiveness is real.

"Ah, I'm going to send a group back to the Central Plains." Li Jue said in pain.

"Yes, two thousand of them need to be sent back to the Central Plains." Kuai Yue nodded and said, "We lack professional horse breeders here. Although the Qiang people are also very good at it, they are still very different from the Central Plains, and the horse eats too much."

"Okay, okay, just give me one batch." Li Jue said helplessly, knowing that this was an inevitable thing.

"Who are you going?" Kuai Yue asked as he looked at Sansha.
