Chapter 3839: Pricing power

August was still fine, Dion recorded in the diary, anyway, he wrote the diary in advance, and now I am too lazy to change it, so it is still fine.
However, after a war in Rome, the Roman Legion was barely stable. At least the Tenth Knight was not as stubborn as before. Since they found the problem, they had to find a way to solve the problem.
"Dictator, I heard people say that you were pressing us down at the time?" It took a few days for Vingenlio to learn the news, so he asked bitterly.
"Yes." Caesar didn't mean to hide it at all.
"But when Virgilio is leaving, you wish him a victory. Isn't this manipulating the odds?" Vinchenlio looked unconvinced.

"Ah, I mean I want to win the casino." Caesar looked at Vingenlio and said naturally, "Isn't this a normal situation? Don't you know that I like gambling? Is it? And I generally lose a lot."
Caesar was a gambling dog. Half of the reason he ran away from Rome was that he could not afford to borrow money from a wealthy man like Crassus. Then he led soldiers to go to Celtic. The logic of thinking was somewhat like Dou Xian, but Not as excessive as Dou Xian.
In the end, the balance was unsurprisingly successful. After returning, he entered the civil war and had no chance to become a gambling dog. This is why when crossing the Rubicon River, there will be a famous saying-the dice has been cast, because In essence, this person is also a gambler.
It’s just that this person’s level of gambling is not good, losing more and losing less. Fortunately, he learned over-the-counter tricks later, that is, the ability of military power to threaten the dealer, control the handicap and so on, but even with such amazing abilities, there is still A fair probability will bet to lose.
"You really are..." Virgilio said helplessly, "How much have you won."
"More than a thousand gold coins." Caesar laughed. Although money is meaningless to him, it is hard to say such things as gambling. He likes to gamble, especially the things that he is very ugly and clear, he thinks The kind of people who want to take a gamble and lose their bet sooner or later.
"Don't you give us some?" Virgilio said with a smile on his face.
"Giving you points will become a direct manipulation of the handicap." Caesar said with a smile, "this time you should also recognize your own problems?"
"I realized before that as our fighting power grows, our physical strength becomes more and more a problem." Virgilio said seriously, "It has to be like a way."
"There is no good way." Caesar shook his head and said, "This is very difficult to make up. It is impossible for you to make up for the military spirit. It is okay to let you tear the military soul, let you become the military soul, and the curse on you is cleaned up. ?"
"Two hundred years have passed, and it's almost cleaned up." Virgilio thought for a while and said, then reached out his hand to Vincenlio, fumbled for a while on the opponent's shoulder, and then breathed out a faint black breath.
"Also, there is no way, the road of military spirit can be given up." Caesar shook his head again and again, and the tenth was cursed by the will of the Roman Empire. Many legions knew about it, but he cursed Caesar for so many years. This should also be resolved, miracle is not a vegetarian, every day when nothing happens, curse, and it should be done, the result is still there.
In fact, Caesar is not wrong. If the tenth knight has really entered the miracle of miracle in two hundred years, it will be completely cleaned in two hundred years. This is not after Caesar's death, but at most Augustus. The tenth knight was still stalking at the time, and there was no motivation behind it.
I don't know what the meaning is, just stand it up. Anyway, they won't die. This drag, two hundred years have passed, the curse has dimmed a lot, but it is far from being solved.
In fact, after learning physics from Li Cheng to lift the curse, the tenth knight understood how to solve this thing in his own body, but the problem now is that the tenth knight has a way, but he can't stab the imperial will of the Roman Empire.
Not to mention the question of whether it can be smashed, even if it can, Virgilio will have to think about it. There will be most problems in doing this.
"Then you can only train. You have to practice with the first assistant." Caesar has nothing to do. If the curse is lifted, Caesar can still find a way to get the tenth knight closer to the soul of the army, although there is no guarantee Definitely solve the problem, but take your time.
But now the curse on the tenth knight is still there. Although it has dimmed a lot, Caesar is thinking that it has been more than two hundred years, but it is still there. I guess I can't get rid of it, so I can only change my mind. Practice more with the first assistant.
"We have sent a group of people to have friendly discussions with the first support." Virgilio is also the type of finding and solving problems, so after being overthrown, he went to the first support for the first time to be beaten. went.
"But this is not a quick way, hey." Caesar is a little helpless, and the of war is not invincible. The problem to be solved is too difficult, and he has to think about it. Most of the talents are now for the Tenth Cavaliers. It doesn't make sense anymore, and their own line is very stable.
"Speaking of, there will be a military parade in a few days. Will you be at the Pantheon or at the Concordia?" Virgilio didn't want Caesar to be too troubled, so he naturally changed the subject." And now a lot of people from the Han room and Guishuang have arrived in Rome."
"Normal. After all, we and both sides are allies. The other party sent a group of people to watch it. It is due to the fact that Guishuang's words, I have seen it before." Caesar didn't care about Virgilio's turning off the topic, tenth. The Cavaliers are actually very worry-free, and can solve everything on their own.
Caesar had seen the minister sent by Guishuang before, and the other party didn't hide much about Guishuang's internal situation. His intention was very clear this time, and he was willing to exchange part of the spice pricing power for part of the military support again.
For this intention, Rome seems a little ambiguous. Spice pricing power is very important to Rome. In Rome, spices from Nangui are just-needed items.
There is nothing to say about this. Rome’s pursuit of spices is not to use them as perfumes, but to use them as natural flavoring agents for meals. Therefore, the demand for them is very large. Therefore, since ancient times, India has been in Europe. There are a lot of spices in the exports.
It can be said that the largest expenditures of Rome's foreign trade are silk, spices, and porcelain.
Early silk was in the hands of the Central Plains, while spices were in the hands of India.
After the direct trade with the Han Dynasty, the price of silk in Rome dropped sharply. However, after the price dropped to a mid-range silk that citizens could afford, Rome's expenditure on silk rose instead of falling.
Originally placed in the first two years, Guishuang was willing to talk to Rome about the pricing power of mainstream spices and some of the spices that could be controlled. Rome is very happy to accept it.
But the past two years have been different. The Han family used to burn spices, engage in incense, toss incense, and so on. Every year there is a huge demand for all kinds of side-door spices, but isn't this now a pioneer? Who has time to play this kind of thing, so the demand is greatly reduced.
In addition, the cheap spices in Southeast Asia are hitting the Central Plains market. Except for some specific spices, which are infinitely collected in the Han room, the demand for other spices in the Han room is not large. After all, they are used for cooking, and they are not. Used to concoct all kinds of strange things.
Therefore, if you change hands, you will deal with the Romans at a low price. Anyway, any spices in Rome can be imported, then transfer the excess spices to Rome. Rome naturally refuses to come, the quality of the spices in the Han Dynasty is also very good, and the price It's cheap. Of course, the financial officer chooses the spice of the Han Dynasty.
As a result, Indian spices, which had been a seller's market before, have been quite affected. Although there has been no significant decline in profits, the impact has gradually appeared.
Vesudeva I also discovered this, so he decided to discuss with Rome about the pricing rights of spices.
One thing to say here is that as of the 21st century, the pricing power of some spices is still in the hands of the Indian chiefs. In this time, Vesudeva I overthrew the Brahmins, and many things were successfully recovered into the hands of the government.
Therefore, the price of spices given by India is very tempting. Rome must have nodded before, but it can’t stand Zhou Yu, who has a smashing market. Spices from Southeast Asia are grass and money-free things for Zhou Yu.
Chen Xi only accepts mainstream fennel, cinnamon and so on...
The surplus can only be transferred to the merchants, so that they can be transferred to Rome one by one. For this reason, Zhou Yu also set up a chamber of commerce in the sixth year of Yuanfeng, called the Southeast Wudi Commercial Alliance. After the listing, he asked Chen Xi for a big one. Pile of policies and messy photos.
The main business on the bright side is selling fruit, selling oil, selling rice, selling sugar, selling spices. It is said that these alone make the five big businessmen want to scold their mothers, and always feel that the development of their own generations has been thought about by Zhou Yu. Beyond the.
Coupled with the contracted projects and war operations in the secret land, the Wudi Commercial Alliance is definitely second to none. Regarding the spice matter, Zhou Yu also specially entrusted Chen Xi before, and Chen Xi entrusted Da Hongxun, planning to send someone to talk to Rome. Up.
As a result, the Roman veteran Chao Mamikonyan and Wu Hou of the Han Dynasty had already talked about it before they waited. Finally, Chao brought a word to the Roman Senate, and Sun Ce’s spices arrived at Midia. It was sold at a low price. Although the two governments are now in discussions, Media’s Wudi Spice Rome is crazy to eat. After all, it is really cheap.
Although the variety is not as complete as in India, it is really complete, so no matter how attractive the price Guishuang takes out, Pompianus has some other ideas.
