lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!

Speaking of this, Sorikos increased his voice: "As it is now, with Archon Daves as the mainstay, and other Senate veterans assisting in doing things, the Union’s work efficiency is much higher, and the citizens are all If you have land, you don’t have to worry about life, and you don’t have to worry about enemy encroachment, and you can freely hold public office and get paid. Isn’t it better than before! So even if the Tua Alliance is really changed to a royal system, there is nothing wrong with it. As long as future kings can be like Master Daves, I think the people of the Alliance will support them too!"

After listening to his words, Tios fell into deep thought: Greeks are born to love politics. From the ancient times to the present, the citizens of every city-state are seeking a perfect system to make the city-state more prosperous and citizens More freedom. Decades ago, Athens became a model for the city-states to emulate, but the failure of the Peloponnesian War allowed many people of insight to see the shortcomings of the Athenian democratic system, and some aristocrats, including philosophers, began to admire Si Bada still follows the ancient Greek half-royal and half-democratic system, but the hegemony of the Spartans particularly disgusts the neighbors of the Peloponnese. The Tua League system seems to be a bit interesting... Theos thought in his heart.

The carriage continued to gallop, and when it ran across the wooden bridge, he looked back and observed it for a while.

There are a lot of pedestrians and vehicles on the avenue, but they are all very orderly and do not interfere with each other.

Tios looked around and found some clues: "You seem to be walking on the right on this road?!" He said loudly, uncertainly.

"Yes, you observed very carefully!" Sorikos exclaimed happily: "That was after the avenue was built. Master Davos was at the ferry crossings of Amendorara, Turriy, and Heraclea. A monument was erected, suggesting that all pedestrians keep to the right. In the first few days, many people did not listen and often crossed the road. Because the road is good, the speed of horse-drawn carriages and panniers are relatively fast, so it happened. After several injuries, the road was blocked. Everyone realized that Lord Davos’s suggestion was right! You see our Archon is like this. Although he has a lot of power, he doesn’t use compulsively. Means to make the people obey, but try to convince the other party, this is one of the reasons why he is the only life-long consul and we are not worried!"

"The Tua League does have a good archon!" Teos exclaimed: "And I noticed that every distance, a stone stele is erected on the side of the road, and it is engraved with the distance between Amendorara, As far as Heraclea is, the management of a road will be so careful. If you want to govern the city-state, you will consider the feelings of the people."

"Yes! Yes!" Sorikos raised his whip and straightened his chest proudly.

"How much can you earn every day by driving a horse-drawn carriage?" Tios asked.

The happy Sorikstan said quickly: "In the beginning, there were only ten opals a day, and most of them were given by the Tua Union people with fresh pictures. Now, there are almost no When resting, I can earn up to forty-six opals. Going out in this way, after deducting the cost of horse fodder and care, I can earn about six hundred opals and nearly one hundred drachmas a month. In three or four months, I will be able to pay off the loan and interest!"

The two talked happily. As there were not many trucks on the avenue and the road was very smooth, they arrived at the warehouse hotel area under the city of Amendorara in less than two hours. In fact, it's not as quiet as the market administrator said, the same people come and go, but it's not so noisy.

Soricos waited for Tios to get out of the car and said to him: "I suggest you go to the restaurant opened by Christoya for dinner. The lamb soup and tripe in her shop are very delicious, and the price is also It’s not expensive. I eat it every few days. I didn’t expect that the offal that people usually don’t want can be cooked so delicious. I spend half of my money on it."

"Is it so delicious?" Tios was dubious.

"You'll know if you try." Sorics said, another customer got in the car, and he waved goodbye.

"May Hermes bless you to realize your wish as soon as possible!" Tios also sent his blessings.

Looking at Soricos driving away, Tios started to growl from his hungry stomach when he said that. He decided to go to the restaurant recommended by Soricos first.

……………………

Compared with Amendorara, Turri is far beyond the land, population, affairs, etc. Therefore, the office of the Senate will be relocated to Turri, although the council hall has not yet been repaired. Since most of the elders’ homes are in Amendorara, in order to facilitate and speed up future discussions, the Turiyi Reconstruction Committee has allocated houses to the elders in Turiyi. Because Daves is busy with his business, he often stays at home and constantly The visiting veteran discussed political affairs with public officials, so he was allocated a new house twice the size of Amendorara’s home. Daves wanted to refuse, but Kristia liked the house so much that she had to accept it.

This house is located on a higher hillside in the city of Turri. Standing at the gate of the courtyard, you can have a panoramic view of the Krati River and the Koseni River, and on another hillside not far to the north. It is the place where the original Temple of Apollo (the Temple of Hades is now being built on the old site) and the Acropolis, the location is very superior.

It is the end of September, which is the beginning of autumn, but the climate in the southern Apennine Peninsula is still hot. Fortunately, the river breeze that blows from time to time makes Christia who is raising a baby at home feel a little cool.

The atrium of the new house is large and rectangular. Some time ago, Christia invited a mason to repair a wall in the middle, leaving a door, so that the middle hall was divided into the front and back yards: the front yard had the side room where the slaves lived and the drawing room, and the back yard was Dave. The bedroom of the couple, the room of the adopted daughter and the place where the personal servants live.

Christoya has been staying in the backyard all this time, the environment is quiet and privacy is guaranteed. At this time, she was wearing a light linen and taking the female slave Asuna to plant her favorite flowers and plants in the atrium of the backyard. She moved and quietly, her clothes swayed, and her snow-white chest was looming, making people think about it.

Andria got permission from the female slave at the door and entered the backyard. She saw Kristonia put down her pick, took the sweat towel from Asuna, and wiped off her sweat.

Andrea hurriedly walked over and reminded: "Madam, didn't the doctor tell me, you should rest quietly during this period of pregnancy to ensure the smooth growth of the fetus, and you should not exercise vigorously!"

"I don’t vomit much anymore. Daves said, “Appropriate exercise helps me and my child’s health.” Kristia said as she stroked her belly that didn’t show up. , The tender face is overflowing with tenderness.

"Master Daves is so busy and cares about you and your children so much! Madam, Hera has given you a good husband!" Andrea made a compliment in a timely manner to make Christoya more It was a happy smile on her face: "Andrea, don't just envy me, you can be with Baggul in a year! I didn't expect it to be so soon!"

"This is the consul's full help, Baggul and his people are very grateful to the lord!" Andrea said sincerely.

"After Baggul and the others have finished their labor, are they willing to stay and become citizens of the Tua League?" Christoya handed the sweat scarf to Asuna, and asked seemingly unintentionally.

"Bagul said to me,'Most of his young people are willing to stay here, because although they are tired, they are very happy and safe. They don't want to go back to the mountains and live a life of fear and fear. Only A few old people hesitated, including his father..." At this point, Andrea was slightly worried. Of course, she would like the Lucanians to stay, so that her marriage would go smoothly.

"Don't worry, Daves will find a way to keep them all!" Christia comforted her, picked up an earthen ear pot from the table next to her, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Ender Leah: "You rushed over from the market. You are thirsty. Have a drink of this."

Andrea took the cup and hurriedly scanned it with her eyes. There was a golden yellow liquid in the cup, with some debris floating in it. After a little sway, white foam appeared. She didn't dare to ask right away. She took a sip first, with a hint of sweetness in the bitterness, and a bit cold.

She couldn't help taking another big sip. A large amount of foam was wrapped in liquid, flowing into her stomach very smoothly, forcing her to burp a few full times, and suddenly felt the hot body refreshed a lot.

"What kind of slurry is this?" she asked in surprise.

"It tastes good, I put it in the well water for a long time." Kristonia smiled contentedly and said: "As for what it is, let Asuna tell you."

The dark-skinned and pretty Asuna hurriedly said: "It's called beer, and it's a kind of syrup that we Egyptians love to drink. A few months ago, Master Daves was chatting with his wife and said, "He When considering the rugby game as a formal competitive game, it will be very popular for the people to watch. But there is still a lack of a good-drinking slurry for people to sit in the arena and watch the game under the scorching sun, which can quench their thirst. It can also add to the fun...'. I heard it on the side, and couldn't help but say,'You can try the beer that the Egyptians drink.'"

Hearing this, Christia "chuckled" and said, "You didn't see Davers's expression at the time. He looked at Asuna very surprised and asked her several times. 'What was the name of the slurry she was talking about?' Then she asked about the color, taste and production process of the slurry, and then she cursed something,'I was cheated by the German... Germans. It turns out that beer was invented by the Egyptians. ', and then urged me to find someone to make beer. I had to send someone to the slave market in Tarantum to buy Egyptian slaves who could make beer at a high price and try to make it."

Note: Each civilization has left its own unique mark on the world. Egyptian civilization also has many interesting inventions. Here I will only list the ones that are of interest to ladies: eye shadows, wigs, dyed nails, various accessories , Rose baths, milk baths, hair care, essential oils... and perfumes were not invented by the French. Three thousand years ago, Egypt had a rule: not applying perfume in public is illegal. The interesting life of the Egyptians will be described in detail in the second half of this novel, so let’s make a small introduction!
