Chapter 6 There are so many nobles in Rome, but they don’t have the money to ransack their homes!
Rome's territory was extremely large, and it had just unified some areas. It was not a true unification, and there were still many tribes.
These tribes have backward technology and stubborn ideas, and are born slaves.
After the arrival of future generations of time travellers, war will inevitably break out.
Are you worried about the lack of slaves?
"Your Majesty, you can't have no money at all. Trade with Carthage and other kingdoms all require money."
"Moreover, I plan to spend money to buy some Carthaginians to use back..."
Zhang Jiu's resentful voice sounded.
On the way to Rome, Ying Tian used the term "black and white" to the extreme.
Almost none of the tribes that traded with him ended well.
Da Qin searched for countless strategic materials without spending a penny.
The fleet stopped at various places for a short period of time, and silenced everyone in a timely manner. There were no mistakes, so it was a smooth journey.
"What is there in Rome? It has the most aristocrats! The background of those aristocrats is still there, you can just find any excuse to confiscate their homes."
"Have you forgotten how much wealth there was in Zhao Gao's mansion after he killed him?"
"The wealth of Western nobles is definitely higher than that of Zhao Gao."
Ying Tian said slowly.
His eyes moved slightly, and an indelible cold light flashed deep in his eyes.
During the campaign against Rome, some nobles were shocked by Qin's strength and chose to surrender.
He was afraid that the nobles would jump to the wall if pressed, and after asking him to hand over his soldiers, he did not continue to take care of him.
now.
After the Roman Empire was unified and everything stabilized, it was natural to settle the accounts later in the year.
Once a person has money, there are many things he can do, and he is likely to recruit soldiers and horses, so these nobles must be plundered.
"Remember, you must find a good excuse, otherwise you will be resented by ordinary people."
"In this way, if you spread the word, you will say that the nobles are exploiting the people. We can't stand it, so we took action. We are the incarnation of justice."
Looking at Zhang Jiu who was deep in thought, Ying Tian warned him.
Putting some things another way would have the opposite effect.
If ordinary people and nobles were forced into a united front, it would be difficult to unify Rome.
It must be differentiated.
Zhang Jiu raised his head and glanced at Ying Tian, his eyes full of weirdness.
When he was in the Qin State, what Ying Tian was best at was ransacking homes, which frightened all the officials.
Unexpectedly, the ability to confiscate money would one day be brought to Rome.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I understand everything and will never let you down."
He took a deep breath, his eyes became serious, and he spoke word by word.
After being with Ying Tian for a long time, I naturally learned a lot.
I have already mastered the skill of confiscating homes, but I have never had time to practice it, and now I finally have the opportunity.
"In addition to killing the nobles and building the Great Wall, basic living facilities must also start to be built. Only in this way can we gain the favor of the Roman people, and then find opportunities to destroy Carthage."
"It's a pity that it's too far away from Carthage, otherwise any country would be scared to shit when my father came over and attacked from both sides."
Ying Tian rubbed his aching temples, feeling helpless in his heart.
The Qin Dynasty was very strong, and its current technological strength was enough to overwhelm the Western countries.
But the long journey is a drawback.
If we want to advance with a large army, we won't be able to get there within three to five years.
"Your Majesty, it is not easy to destroy Carthage. Its national power is huge, its population is countless, its trade is developed, and it has a high say."
Zhang Jiu sighed softly.
The Carthage dynasty is not weak at all, with a heritage of nearly four hundred years.
If Carthage hadn't been frightened by the battle with Rome fifty years ago... During the Qin's campaign to conquer Rome, it would have definitely taken advantage of it.
in fact.
The reason why Rome was destroyed was because Ying Tian used beheading action.
He secretly cut off the head of the Roman king to occupy it so quickly.
otherwise.
A battle with the Roman dynasty is likely to fail.
It's not that Da Qin isn't strong, but that Ying Tian only has 8,000 men at his disposal.
I want to use 8,000 men to destroy Rome, which has an army of nearly 600,000 people.
cough cough.
It's like a fool's dream.
"You don't know something. Carthage is a little different from other countries."
Ying Tian ordered the person to bring a jar of wine, raised the corners of his mouth, and revealed a meaningful smile.
<divclass="contentadv">Carthage is not so much a country as it is a huge interest group.
There is no king, only three major business alliances.
There are countless merchants under the three major merchant alliances. In every war, soldiers are hired from surrounding countries at high prices to fight on the battlefield.
simply put.
It's almost like the lighthouse country in later generations...
"Your Majesty, according to what you said, it would be even harder to destroy Carthage."
Zhang Jiu's face was confused, and he didn't understand what Ying Tian meant.
Unless the Carthage merchant collective can be disintegrated, it will be difficult to destroy.
Because as long as there is interest, there will be an endless supply of manpower, which will be inexhaustible.
and.
The Roman economy was not prosperous and could not affect Carthage's business at all.
The Ninth Young Master is indeed extraordinary. He showed great military talent when he fought in the six kingdoms.
But military strategy is different from business.
It can be said that they are two completely unrelated things.
No matter how great a person is, he can't be proficient in all fields, right?
"Although we don't have much money left with us, we got a lot of good things on the way here, all of which are priceless."
"In addition, toilet water and soap are also carried on board."
"There are still six days..."
Ying Tian picked up the wine glass and took a sip, his eyes shining brightly.
After the arrival of the time travellers, some of the technologies mastered by Da Qin will definitely be impacted.
Saltpeter ice making, distilled liquor, coarse salt purification, honeycomb coal, soap...
These things allowed Da Qin to make a lot of money in its initial stage.
Unless a time traveler from later generations is a dog, it is impossible for him not to know these technologies.
and so.
In the remaining six days, he must find a way to turn all these memories in his mind into gold, otherwise it will be a huge waste.
"Your Majesty, even if all these things on the ship are sold, they will not be able to exchange for much wealth, let alone cause a blow to Carthage."
Zhang Jiu stretched out his hand and scratched his head, somewhat confused as to what Ying Tian meant.
As for Wang Li.
Then he found a tree, leaned there casually, and drank by himself.
He is good at military strategy and warfare, but knows nothing about business.
"What I mean is, take these samples to the merchants in Carthage and claim that we are willing to cooperate with them and have friendly relations."
"What was sold to them was not these samples, but technical drawings."
"Businessmen are very discerning. They know very well that with these drawings, they will have a steady stream of wealth."
Ying Tian stood up, returned to the study, opened the drawer, and took out a few pieces of white paper.
Pick up the brush, brush it a few times, and write a line of small words on it.
"Coarse Salt Purification Technology"
"Distilled Liquor Making"
Also.
There are some other techniques.
It is not difficult to exchange these few pieces of paper for tens of thousands of taels of gold.
"I understand."
Zhang Jiu took a deep breath, his eyes flashed, and his breathing became faster.
Ying Tian's few words gave him an enlightenment!
He didn't know the identity of Yingtian's traveler, but he knew that after the traveler arrived, these seemingly treasure-like technologies...
Most likely worthless!
Instead of keeping it, it’s better to squeeze out one more sum at the end.
Carthage has three major merchant alliances, and they only need to make deals with one of them. When the drawings become worthless, the other two merchants will definitely reprimand this one.
By then the three major business alliances will surely be defeated without attack.
No matter how bad it is, some strength will be consumed.
"If Carthage knew that you were plotting against him, they would be absolutely furious."
Wang Li's light voice sounded.
He jumped up slightly, picked up the wine jar and served it to Ying Tianman.
His face was full of weirdness.
