Davers ignored him and continued: "For the new citizens who defeated the Lucanian tribe's coalition forces, regained the city of Amendorara, and joined Amendorara today, the land they now own is tax-free! At the same time, a batch of "Amendorara Newborn Silver Buckles" will be cast, one for each new citizen, and it will be kept forever. It can also be worn on Bolton in grand public places to let future generations know their achievements! "
"It's about the same!" Matonis sat down satisfied.
Now, the new citizens have also straightened their chests.
Daves gave honor to both parties, and both parties accepted it with satisfaction, which restored the peace of the venue. In his eyes, Cornelus had to admit that Daves' political skills were great.
"No one pays taxes, so what use is this bill?!" Melses was dissatisfied.
"Don't you understand, treasurer." Cornellus smiled: "All current citizens don't have to pay land tax, and later citizens of Amendorara will have to pay taxes after they own land. "
"Please note that you do not have to pay taxes on your existing land, and you still have to pay for the land you own in the future!" Davers reminded.
"If this is the case, then I can accept it." Antonios stood up and said, "Amendorara was created by Cornellus and their ancestors, and they have endured so much suffering for this. We should Respect. And we have paid our blood and sweat for Amendorara, and we should have gained something. Citizens who join in the future enjoy what we all have done for this city-state. Of course, they have to pay for Amendorara. Order something, pay taxes-I think it is a good way!"
"Antonios, you are right! We agree with this approach!" The new citizens all agreed.
"Yes, we are the creators of this new Amendorara! To let future generations know what we are doing today, these tax-free land and silver deductions are the best proof and glory!" Tersilaos shouted excitedly, and the other old citizens did not object.
…………………………
After the venue, the new citizens all walked to the square, while the old citizens walked on the rugged mountain road.
"Cornerus, you are too indulgent to that young man tonight! You don't refute every bill he puts forward, watching him easily persuade those ignorant mercenaries!" Lompori complained loudly.
"Hey, Stromboli, no young people, young people yelling, Daves is our consul, we should respect!" Raphaas looked behind, not far from the new citizens Too far, so he reminded.
"The Archon? I think it’s the king. He asked us to agree on one of his things! Is there any proposal that I discussed with the Senate’s elders in advance! He also asked so much The mercenaries who had no brains and knew only to obey her participated in this meeting. They obviously wanted him to have the final say! What do we need to do! Be a puppet?!..." Strombo There was some angrily talking non-stop.
Scombras couldn't help interrupting him: "Since you have an opinion on the consul, why don't you say it in the meeting?"
Stromboli was speechless for a moment, and his eyes rolled: "You are not opposed to it, why do you want me to oppose it alone, I am not stupid! Oh... I know. Cornelus became an executive Sir, Rafias is now a household registration officer, and he is already a big man! This is the gift of the archon, you are embarrassed to oppose him, right?"
Scombras rushed to him, stared at him and said, "Shut up, Stromboli! Cornelus did his best to protect this mountain city. You can't say that to him. ! And... Although the soldiers were rude and beat me. To be honest, the bills proposed by this young consul are very interesting, especially the bill on tax payment. I was really surprised, but Amendorara has not changed for hundreds of years..."
"Uncle Scam is right! We, Amendorara, have suffered such suffering and can no longer live like before! Whether it is the appointment of Daves as a life-long consul, or his proposals , As long as Amendorara can become stronger and no longer suffer from humiliation, even if the tradition of Amendorara is changed, I will accept it!" Terry De Moss said solemnly, and several of them nodded secretly.
"More than not being bullied, we have to attack Lucania, defeat them, and avenge us!" The youngest of the six, Protesilaus, said excitedly.
"Lucania has a large population, vast area, and mostly mountainous areas. It is so easy to attack them. The young consul is just talking big words." Stromboli said suspiciously.
"Davos led a small number of mercenaries to annihilate the large number of Lucaria coalition forces. This is true! It is also true that Amendorara was regained in one night! There are so many generals and generals in the great Greek city states. Citizen, who can do these two things, tell me?" Protcilaus retorted.
Stromboli hummed, and did not answer.
"Have you noticed the eyes of the new citizens looking at Daves? It looks like they are staring at a god!" Protsilus said exaggeratedly.
"I heard that they call Daves the Favored One, maybe he can really do miracles." Tritod Moss said with some expectation: "I have long heard that we are northwest of Amendorara, Sinny On the upper reaches of the river there is a large and beautiful lake. The Lucanians call it Dokala (now Lake Senise). It seems that I can not only look at it, but may even get a piece of land there."
Stromboli snorted again, but his expression was a little less angry.
"After all, fighting is killing people, whether you can fight or not fight well." Cornelus sighed.
"Anyway, we don't need us to play, I think those mercenaries are very keen on it." Raphaas looked indifferent.
"That's also our citizen of Amendorara." Corneros reminded him. He paused, then exclaimed: "But we all looked down upon Daves. Don't look at his young age. , But he is very familiar with city-state politics. Is he really what the new citizens said in the rumors of being'given by Hades with wisdom'?"
His sigh was not refuted by the other five, and everyone was obviously surprised by it.
"But what Daves's actual ability to govern requires further observation. How much impact and change the bills he proposed will have on Amendorara, we still don’t know. We don’t know. What we can do is to try our best to ensure the stability of Amendorara, find the problem, and promptly remind Daves, at least for now, Daves is different from Dionysius of Syracuse." Ernerus solemnly reminded everyone.
The other four nodded, and Stromboli asked in a deep voice: "If Daves makes a mess of Amendorara and doesn't listen to dissuasion, what should I do?!"
"If that's the case..." Cornelus didn't know how to answer for a while.
"Then get rid of them!" Scombras said decisively: "For Amendorara, even if we cooperate with Turey again!"
The others faced each other and finally nodded silently.
………………………
Davers returned to the square, it was getting late.
He returned to his big tent, the tent was still brightly lit, and Christia, who had been waiting for his return, was already asleep on the paved floor.
Davers walked gently to the floor and squatted down in front of Kristia. The beating candlelight reflected her beautiful and **** face, her breath was light and long, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth...
It must be a dream! Daves stared quietly, feeling a little silly. Coming to this unfamiliar world alone, living desperately in order to survive, although there are a group of comrades who can entrust life and death, but the lonely and wandering soul really has a port for anchoring because of her.
He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and gently stroked Kristia’s smooth long hair, but he didn't want her to wake up immediately, rubbing his misty eyes, and languidly said: "You are back."
Davers took her hands together, put them together, and said softly: "Christoia of Miletus, would you like to be my Daves’ wife?"
Christonia's eyes suddenly brightened, her beautiful face shining brightly in the candlelight. Following Davers rushing around, one of the things she had been most worried about no longer existed at this moment. She hugged Davers tightly and whispered the promise of life-long entrustment: "I do!"
…………………………
After the passionate lingering, Christia lay on Daves, listening to him talk about what happened in the venue at night, sleepiness gradually came to my heart...
At this time, Daves said: "Christoia, I am hesitating whether to let you do something."
"What's the matter?" Christia asked curiously.
"Have you heard of a bank?"
"Have you heard that, isn’t it just lending? My father also runs this business in Miletus. I heard him say that he admires the Athenian banker Passion the most, because he not only became the richest man in Athens through lending, but also It can also win the respect of the citizens of Athens..." Christia thought of the past, feeling a little sad inexplicably.
"Great! I want you to open a bank in Amendorara, specializing in loans to citizens of Amendorara." Daves said immediately.
"Open a bank?! Me?!" Christoya was stunned.
"Yes, it's you!" Daves raised his head and looked at her with trust in his eyes: "You can manage the health care camp so well, I believe you will be able to run this bank well!"
Christoya calmed down, thought for a while, and reminded: "That needs enough silver coins."
