Chapter 3603: Seeing new hope

To be honest, when I saw this scene, Li Jue and the other two were confused at first, and then they were overjoyed. The bosses were all their own people, so they were afraid of nothing. Then the three brothers were the king of heaven again.

Needless to say, the military advisor must be a burden to himself. Jia Wenhe is still useful. He has known each other for many years. No matter what, he is a brother from Liangzhou. It is okay to give him face. As for Zhuge Kongming, when he was in the Pamirs, he was a real brother, and it was only one word.

There is nothing else to panic about here? The time for the three brothers to come back is very correct!

"Although you know what you three are thinking, your time to come back is indeed a bit amazing." Li You praised it very rarely, "You did a good job in the Pamir Mountains, and you three have nothing to do with promotions. Just continue to be a good Western portal to enter the Central Plains."

Do these three brothers use additional positions to be promoted? Actually, it is not necessary. Although the titles of these three guys are not at full level, they are close to full level. In addition, they have been abroad very early, and their bans are all real and their territory is very large. They have successfully won the ban. If they include black history, what else can they reward them!

"It's okay, it's okay, it's enough to be able to pass it on to the country." Li Jue and the other two laughed like two fools. The rewards were not important. What's important was that they could pass on what they now had to their descendants.

"This is not a problem. Liu Ziyang is not in Chang'an for something, so I can just write a document to keep it." Li You said calmly. Not to mention that Liu Ye is not there, even if Liu Ye is there, Li You can get the documents for the descendants of the country for the three brothers. After all, this is one of the benefits of the marquis.

Li Jue and the other two began to applaud on the spot. The three of them were most worried that they had struggled all their lives, but the results of their struggle could not be passed on. In fact, they also knew that they had too many damning history. Although they could fight, some problems could not be solved by fighting.

This is why Li Jue and the other two have begun to give Liu Tong a gift every year in recent years. To put it bluntly, they pretend that they are a normal marquis and do not want to be put on the list.

"Okay, let me tell you in detail how this batch of horses came from." Li You greeted Li Jue and the other two. As for Yong Kai, he has been drinking tea and watching the fun since he came. To some extent, the Yong family's special stunts should be classified as a melon-eating crowd.

Li Jue and the other two described how he got the war horse from Tachito in detail. Li You nodded. This matter showed many problems.

"Help find Doctor Mi." Li You directed Xun Yun and asked Xun Yun to find Mi Zhu.

After all, Sansha couldn't understand the deal. Li You could tell at a glance that Tachito's group of people wanted to change, but they didn't speak out, and then they gave it half-heartedly and blamed Li Jue and the others.

Li You said that he did not refuse such a transaction at all, but since the Romans liked this kind of transaction, there was no problem. Our Han Dynasty needed such a top stallion, and we could re-sign the trade scope. To be honest, Li You really thought Rome did not produce war horses before.

Because the main forces of Rome were basically heavy infantry and the cavalry was very small. Although there were reasons for the terrain of the Two Rivers, the performance of the Roman legion always seemed to hint to the Han Dynasty that they did not have good horses.

As a result, when Rome took action, the Han Dynasty was shocked. It was not that Rome did not have good horses, but it just didn't like using cavalry. Since that's the case, we can expand the scale of the transaction. We like this horse very much, and we have some silk.

Trade balance is beneficial to everyone. The Romans used to rely mainly on jade, olive oil, dried fruits and other things to balance trade with the Han Dynasty. However, silk, sugar, porcelain, and tea in the Han Dynasty were all commodities, and the Romans had some difficulty in trade balance.

Now that Rome has good horses, what else can I say? Compared with small-scale private smuggling, of course, it is more in line with the interests of the country to sign trade agreements between countries. In Li You's view, it is necessary to sign a supplementary agreement with Rome.

After Mi Zhu saw those horses and learned that these horses were from Rome and were not banned from selling materials, he knew what Li You wanted to do. Transnational trade with Rome is itself one of the very important businesses of the Han Dynasty at present. Mi Zhu himself had this sensitivity, so after he came, before Li You could speak, Mi Zhu was ready.

In fact, after Tachito's unlucky child was held back to Rome by the camp leader under his command, he did not encounter Pompianus' education, as Kuai Yue estimated. In fact, Pompianus himself did not want to build such a legion, because the cavalry was too edible, but after eating five times the food and grass at the same level, he could not defeat five times the elite of the same level.

In terms of input-output ratio, the Ninth Spanish Legion belongs to the one that needs to be pulled on. In fact, Pompinanus prefers legions like the Tenth Knights and the Eleventh Loyal Claudius because the material demand for these two legions is very small and the input-output ratio is extremely high.

Therefore, when he heard Tachito sell his horse, Pompianus first showed anger on his face, but in fact he clapped his hands well. In the future, he would not need to give the Ninth Spanish Legion six times the maintenance fee for other legions, and the food and so on could be reduced. Long live.

Then Tachito began to publicly bribe Severu and Caesar, and boxes of tribute-level silk were stuffed into Severu and Caesar's hands. Both of them accepted it happily. As for the war horses, Severu didn't care.

After all, it is not the time of war, and the ones he has done with Li Jue are also doing sand sculpture trading. Although Tachito repeatedly cried that he was drunk by Li Jue and then made a transaction, I can only hear this. In fact, Severu would not care about Tachito's behavior just for those more than a dozen boxes of tributes and thousands of top-quality silk.

Isn’t this normal thing for the Romans to walk in the top silk?

As for trading war horses, it's enough to have no loss in this business. Warning, let's not do it. Forget it this time, you can't take the tribute from Tachito and turn around and beat Tachito. However, Severu also arranged a new task for Tachito. Since you have sold the horse, if you want a new war horse, you can go to Spain to catch it yourself.

Tacito was not dissatisfied with this. Besides, Spain is still a tax-protected area for its own legion. After all, Spain first came the ninth Spain and later it was the Spanish region.

Pompianus strongly opposed it, saying that since the war horses have been sold, it means that the Andalusian horse is not suitable for use in the Ninth Spain and it is easy to return to the Arabian horses used before.

Of course, Tachito pretended not to hear this, and then put a box of tributes to Pompinanus. After Pompinanus harvested it, he still said that the Arab horse is the most cost-effective war horse. Tachito did not answer and took a boat to Spain, preparing to change his horse breed.

After all, Andalusian horses are just the most cost-effective war horse among the top breeds, not the war horse with combat power, explosive power, durability and muscle strength. Although for any species, the higher these attributes, the more you eat, the better, Tachito spent a roll of tribute silk to buy an analysis report from Herodian.

The report said that Pompianus saw a new trade plan from this transaction, and Tachito could take advantage of the chaos and say that it was discovered by himself and then take advantage of it, such as upgrading his Andalusian horse to a Friesian horse.

Because this horse is bigger, stronger, more explosive, and more terrifying, it is perfect except for eating more than Andalusian horses. Of course, the price-performance Andalusian horse has dropped by a higher level again, and has fallen to the level where you can eat middle-class families.

In short, after this transaction, the Romans discovered a new way of trade, and the Han Dynasty discovered that Rome actually had the top war horses that were not available in the Central Plains, and the other party did not castrate them, so they could be used as stallions when sent over.

So both sides are happily preparing for a new way of trading.

However, Rome has been very low-key recently, because Severus' new mentally retarded operation has made Pompianus want to die. The fiscal budget may have entered a deficit. When he is sure that he cannot live longer with Severus, the fiscal officer can only use the new plan to curb Severus' mystery, so he set his sights on the Suez Canal.

It is very difficult to make money these days, and Severus’s method of spending money is really a bit of nothing to say. Therefore, Pompianus needs an industry that can continue to make money and make money stable. It is best to trick Severus into paying money and then taking interest when building this industry.

After looking around, the financial officer decided to dig and clear the Suez Canal, open the path to the Mediterranean to the Red Sea, and strengthen maritime trade. As for who should pay for the construction of this thing, Pompianus has already thought about it, of course it is Severus.

I even thought about the words - Your Majesty, I have a big business, which can raise wages for soldiers every year. I am not interested in other investments in Severu, but Severu is definitely interested in this kind of business that can raise wages for soldiers every year.

After all, Severu can do what the private treasury can pay the soldiers after the treasury has no money. As the emperor, I will pay this salary first. I can lose money, and it will not have any impact, but the soldiers need this money to make a living.

This is also one of the reasons why Severus is supported by the soldiers. Therefore, Pompinanus's rhetoric can definitely fool Severus into investing. This will deceive Severus' private treasury and clear the treasury, and Severus will have no money to raise his salary in the short term.
