"But what does this kind of preciousness mean to our Yuan family?" Yuan Si said with a touch of pride, "The old Yuan family of the fifth generation and the third prince has never lacked these dead things. For us, these people's lives
It’s far more important than these things.”
Galen looked at Yuan Si's proud expression and knew that the other person was telling the truth. He couldn't help but sigh, so he nodded, "Yuan family? I remember it."
Even Galen did not dare to have the slightest contempt for this kind of family that regards rare treasures as dirt but values human life. After all, Rome is no longer the situation it was hundreds of years ago when even a large number of the descendants of senators were captured.
, it’s an era that can still be abandoned as long as the country gives an order.
In Rome at that time, at least from a human perspective, the senators in the Senate were indeed well-deserved men of noble character and strict self-discipline. As for the situation now, even Galen himself would sometimes laugh at his own depravity.
In Galen's senses, the Yuan family was undoubtedly a great nobleman equivalent to the Cornelius and Claudius families in Rome, but such a nobleman actually still maintained the view that citizens were not humble, and
Rome, how many people still remember the true meaning of the Roman emperor?
The name of Caesar is only the first citizen, not the dictatorial emperor. The first citizen is supported by the power of the citizens. The name of the emperor is never noble. Similarly, if the first citizen is noble, then it is noble.
Also all citizens.
Rome is the Rome of Roman citizens, not the Rome of Roman emperors.
It's a pity that when thinking about this, Galen couldn't help but sigh. Nowadays, who remembers this? Roman citizens enjoy everything in Rome and protect everything in Rome, but how many people in the Senate and the Emperor remember who they are doing for?
And be responsible.
"If Dr. Galen has an errand in the Central Plains, he can directly find the Yuan family. If anything happens in the future, the door of the Yuan family will always be open to you. When you say goodbye, please accept the gift from the Yuan family!" Yuan said!
Si directly sent the prepared set of glass products to the Yuan family. Unlike other defective products, the light transmittance of Yuan Si's set of glass products reached the standard level of later generations.
It was a divine object that was as bright as crystal. At least in this era, it could be said to be the top treasure. However, Yuan Si calmly handed it over to Galen.
Rare treasures and the like are really no longer important at the level of the Yuan family. This time the Yuan family really intends to make friends with this Roman doctor. The more they know about Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, the more they understand the significance of such a figure.
If you can't win over a person who is almost encountered but cannot be asked for, then lend a hand and form a good relationship. If possible, when you ask for help in the future, the other person will not refuse.
"This kind of thing is too precious!" Galen only glanced at it and turned his head firmly, not daring to look at it again. The silver mirror that was so smooth that even the hair could be seen clearly made Galen almost want to reach out.
, but the strong will still tried its best to control it.
"Yes, it is very precious. Even if it is placed in our country, it is the best treasure." Yuan Si's handsome face showed infinite calmness.
"Since it is so valuable..." Galen asked directly.
"You have saved a lot of people. They are all members of our Yuan family. It may be a piece of cake for you, but for us, the death of a young man means there is one more widow and one more person in need.
Raising children also represents the end of a family, and human life is extremely precious." Yuan Si's words at this moment can be said to come from the heart.
"..." Galen was speechless. Even many members of the envoy were yearning for the nobility shown by Yuan Si. It is difficult for anyone to explain clearly what kindness is, but when a good person truly appears, it is normal.
Everyone will yearn for it.
"Take it, you deserve it. The Shu brocade is a reward from us to solve the problem of our relocated population, and this is a gift. Don't worry, the value of this gift will definitely not be higher than the previous Shu brocade.
." Yuan Silang said with a smile, they are all luxury goods, and the prices are basically filled in randomly. The problem is that Shu brocade starts with the word "tribute".
"I have accepted your gift. As long as it is within my ability and does not violate the principles, the Yuan family can come to me if they need help. However, I am only a doctor, so the things I can help are very limited." Galen
Looking at Yuan Si's sincere face, he nodded and said.
Yuan Si breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. As long as he accepts it, it will be fine. The old Yuan family may be short of other things, but there is definitely no shortage of luxury goods. As long as you eat sugar-coated bullets, it is a good thing. As long as you eat it, it is a good thing.
There are plenty of sugar-coated bullets waiting to be fed to you.
"Now that Dr. Galen has accepted this gift, and our Yuan family has been away from each other for ten miles, I have to leave. I wish you all a safe journey." Yuan Si bowed and bowed respectfully, then turned and left without any sloppiness.
Speaking of which, Yuan Si is the handsome guy selected from a large family by the Yuan family, who has the most handsome face, the kindest smile that makes people feel goodwill, and the sincerity that makes people's hearts sway. By the way, the meaning of Yuan Si's existence is to pull sheep everywhere.
, PR for sending gifts everywhere, the effect is very good.
At least the Romans' aesthetics don't seem to be much different from those in the Central Plains. Except for their MAX love for silk, in other aspects, just treat them like the Central Plains people.
"Ares, help me put it away, don't break it." Galen said as he looked at Yuan Si's retreating figure and handed the box to Ares.
"Don't worry, it won't be broken." Ares nodded and took the glassware, "Dr. Galen, should we get in touch with the Yuan family later? This family can't be judged by their courage or status.
It all looks extraordinary.”
"Forget it, it is basically impossible for us to have a conflict with the Han Dynasty. The distance is really too far. We should communicate with the Yuan family after official exchanges. Personal friendship should be put behind state affairs. This cannot be messed up." Galen
He said solemnly, and Ares nodded after hearing this.
"The country of silk and gold is indeed very rich." Serali looked at the silver mirror. Compared with the last time he saw it, this time it was more perfect. He looked at the road under his feet again.
It wasn't there last time.
"So we need to do business with them." Galen said with a smile. He was not exactly an ordinary doctor who didn't know anything else. He had the origin of a citizen and the status of the Senate. Roman citizens were in the Roman system.
They are basically equivalent to nobles.
"The problem is that I can't find what they need." Sierra said helplessly.
Serali is the son of the Duke of Bianjun. He had thought about this idea the last time he came here, but he got nothing. This country has everything, especially after experiencing the terrifying prosperity of Fenggao.
There is no denial whatsoever.
"You are still too young. This country has demand for gold, silver and copper, and it also has demand for certain stones." Galen smiled and said, "We can exchange gold, silver and certain stones with them."
The Romans, or other than the Central Plains, or even the Pan-Chinese cultural circle, basically did not have the concept of jade. Therefore, in Galen's eyes, priceless jade was also a stone. This kind of stone seemed to be very valuable in the Central Plains. They could find a way to get it.
Just do it.
"In addition to silk, there are other things we need in this country, such as sugar." Ares suddenly said. Sugar has now been made popular by Chen Xi. Unlike the so-called maltose, what Chen Xi has made is real.
sucrose.
At the beginning, it was really impossible to do it. Sugar cane was still a kind of grass in this era. Fortunately, it already existed in the Han Dynasty. Chen Xi asked Mi Zhu to start it, and Mi Zhu quickly got it out after spending money.
, but at first relying on wild cultivation, the yield was not good. Later, we found professionals and it was possible to plant it on a large scale.
Anyway, once a large-scale planting like Chen Xi started, he would start to reduce costs in various ways. In the end, it was barely used throughout the Central Plains. At least the common people could eat something sweet occasionally. As for sugar, it was still not possible, but sugar was released.
.
Needless to say, sugar and salt are sold officially, which can be regarded as a face for the salty party and the sweet party, and gives official endorsement to the party struggle.
However, human beings are social animals by nature. They can eat sweet things and salty things. They are destined to develop the question of whether salty things are more delicious or sweet things are more delicious. Then party disputes are bound to arise.
Chen Xi thought that party competition could stimulate sales, so he worked hard to spread the delicious taste of salty food in the south, the base camp of the sweet party, and then worked hard to spread the delicious food of sweet food in the stronghold of the salty party, and then bought salt from both parties, and he made money from both parties.
, making a lot of money.
However, Chen Xi was kicked out not long after he started doing this. He didn’t have to do so much work. He was a salty party and a sweet party. He was looking for trouble. Mi Zhu quickly increased production. Those who should be exposed to salt should be exposed to salt, and those who should be squeezed out should be squeezed out.
Juice, this is a huge amount of fiscal revenue.
Anyway, in this era, anyone who wants to sell private salt and sugar has been killed by Chen Xi at a loss. The official price of salt from the salt field is one hundred and fifty coins per stone, and the price is still the same for ordinary people. Hehehe, I want to make money.
, No way, this business depends entirely on official tax rebates and subsidies.
Without tax rebates and subsidies, anyone who sells will lose money. Anyone who wants to make money through smuggling is now in trouble. In the past, they could be sold to barbarians, but now there are no barbarians. The smugglers have been forced to do other things.
.
Chen Xi took the national decree and directly marked the price. The ex-factory price is equal to the sales price. Let's see who among you can raise the price. Chen Xi estimates that if he continues like this, even the sales channels will become national in the end. Well, he is so crazy that he won't give any price at all.
