"Serrari?" Chen Xi began to think about whether he had heard of this person, and later found that his Roman history was not very good at this time, whether it was the five emperors in the past or the dark three centuries in the future. Yes, it is estimated that many people can be known.
However, whether he knew it or not, Chen Xi still gave a calm look back. After all, the courtesy of the courtesy was always consistent in the Han Dynasty.
Listening to what Serrari was saying, Chen Xi said that he could only hear a few words, and there was no way to change the Indo-Germanic language for thousands of years, but fortunately, the Roman era was an era of stereotypes, so barely Can understand a few words.
"Uh, what does it mean to bite on the silk?" Chen Xi said, looking at the other person's changing expression.
Other words are incomprehensible. The pronunciation of these words, silk and porcelain, has not changed much over the millennium. Does n’t it mean that the Central Plains people refer to the Celis as the silk people? There is no change in calling China also the porcelain. Tea is also a meaning.
After listening to An Yue ’s translation, Chen Xi finally understood what Celis meant. First, he expressed sincere admiration for the Han Dynasty and thought it was an empire as great as Rome. Then he turned to silk, culture, and wisdom. The law, civilizations are all skipped ...
"Oh, your country needs silk very much, and hope that we can give this kind of treasure to distant friends, and let us form an alliance of life and death?" Chen Xi asked, rolling his eyes, who gave you the method of silk production something wrong.
"Yes, for this reason, after the two sides formed an alliance of life and death, we in Rome are also willing to donate 500 boxes of gold coins, and give 200,000 gold coins every year to the Han Dynasty. Feelings. "Serrari said sincerely.
Chen Xi rolled his eyes, as if it were a very casual thing, 500 boxes of gold coins. Changed to a standard box, that is, a box of 10,000 gold coins, 5 million gold coins listened to a lot, whether it is possible to buy 500 silk silk in Rome.
I really thought that Chen Xi didn't know the "war of silk". He fought the toll of silk with another empire for more than 20 years, and finally did not suppress the toll. A roll of silk was finally settled according to gems ...
It seems that in this era the silk of ancient Rome has not yet reached the highest point. It was almost the equivalent of silk and gold. After that, silk went all the way higher. It was remembered that in the dark third century of Rome, that is, after a few years, the weight of silk converted to gold weighed 1:15.
Afterwards, with the strength of Sassan Persia, he was completely shameless, and the price of silk in Rome finally rose to one pound of silk, up to 247 gold coins. Of course, this is not the most important, the most important is that this is the official price of the Roman Emperor Diocletian.
Every five million gold coins can only buy 20,000 pounds of silk silk. The equivalent of the current unit is 18 tons. Sure enough, five hundred carts of silk is a fantasy ...
So this seemingly sincere price, in fact, completely wiped the face and put it in a pocket, even if the Roman silk and gold are only one to one price, the Romans have no face to say so. And also to mention technology, this is the rhythm you want to die?
"I deeply understand Rome's desire for silk, but my family doesn't care about it, but I can recommend you to talk to the Mi family. As the noble family, as a noble, I understand your mood very much, and I like it too." Chen Xi completely Instead of turning his face, it was a smile.
The translator of the other party faithfully translated, and after hearing the joy, Serrari took out a box from the carriage behind him. When I opened it, I saw a gem that had been cut inside and refracted the bright light.
"Thank you for your guidance, this gem is given to you as a gift." Serrari said excitedly. Chen Xi's light face is obviously not difficult. This allowed Serrari to see the possibility of obtaining silk. For Rome, silk was too important.
[Sure enough, only by communicating with the nobility can get more information, especially the high aristocracy, and the level of the nobility must be the same. 】 Serrari thought excitedly, as if silk had already got his hands.
Chen Xi accepted it politely, this thing can only be given to Chen Yun, no three, to anyone else will be unhappy.
"You're welcome, I just heard that the distant Daqin had envoys coming, so I came to have a look." Chen Xi said stiffly, "I have something to leave now, please forgive me for being rude."
An Yue translated truthfully. The other party felt sorry for Chen Xi ’s departure, but did not stop him. Chen Xi was smiling away from the Roman envoy, and his face suddenly became somber, and Rome wanted to take advantage of him.
"Go, this one." Chen Xi turned his head and turned into a shop. This is a special shop. It is a kind of shop that collects prohibited goods and buys news. There is only a shopkeeper at the counter. There are not many items for sale.
"Dangdang Dang!" Chen Xi knocked a few times on the table without expression, and the head of the shopkeeper did not lift it. "We only sell news on our side, and of course buy all kinds of materials. As for hot materials, we can do everything here. ... "
It was at this time that the shopkeeper could not speak anymore, and he saw who was opposite him.
"This is how you do business?" Chen Xi said with a dissatisfied eyebrow.
"Subordinate convicted!" The shopkeeper quickly bowed back.
"Forget it, I won't pursue your question, let me look at the account book." Chen Xi reached out and asked for the account book, and the other party immediately asked Chen Xi to enter, and then handed a chunk of thick account book to Chen Xi, Chen Xi quickly calculated A moment, and then set aside.
Chen Xi doesn't have much time to calculate these things. He can only roughly calculate the monthly in and out. Even if it is a fake account, the monthly increase or decrease can still be seen. When the new account was implemented, it was not long before the fake account was made. Not yet practiced.
"There is a certain increase every month, then just whatever you want." Chen Xi said casually, since income is increasing, and the increase is still obvious, then Chen Xi does not need to demand these things too much.
The shopkeeper wiped the cold sweat obviously, with an expression like Amnesty.
"Inform the major families to let them manage the silk industry under their name, and the farmers who raise silkworms should also manage it. If someone steals it, they can take it directly, and the technology of raising silkworms and pulling silk should not be spread." Chen Xijing Said the shopkeeper.
The reason for ordering here is very simple. The shops here are from all major families, do n’t look like a merchant, but in fact all are wearing vests, so order here, and soon all major families will have Can receive.
As for the official, Wang Xiu will go back to the official, Liu Bei ordered the matter, so that the official and the civilians are doing their own thing, the Romans want to dream of a full set of technology for raising silkworms and pulling silk! (To be continued ~ ^ ~)
PS: Every time I read this history, I felt that the Romans were too obsessed with silk. A pound or 0.9 kilograms of silk was officially priced at 247 gold coins in Diocletian ’s time. It's just a matter of course, this is the case for the extravagant ...
