According to Yamazaki's wishes, Siva announced the new rules to the slaves in the name of her mistress, and received unanimous support. Just like Yamazaki said, even if some people doubt it, they will not object because they are all beneficiaries.
Yamazaki took over the finances of the Gron family through Shiwa, but Meidaizi had no interest at all. She just wanted to grow up quickly and go out to play when she grew up.
The property of the Gelong family is divided into four parts. One is the gold coins exchanged for the treasures stolen in the past, the other is the slaves in the family, the third is the livestock, and the fourth is weapons, tents and other items.
Keeping gold coins will only make others jealous. Investment is the best way out. God happens to be there. Under the witness of God, no one dares to risk messing with the contract signed.
Slaves must be raised. This is a product of the times. Even if you want to emancipate slaves, many slaves still don't want to. Without their masters, they cannot support themselves.
Animals need to be marked to record their growth and facilitate management.
The weapons are really poor and cannot be compared with the weapons of the 20th century.
Yamazaki still felt that he had done a good job. Although he didn't know how to open a furnace to create weapons, he could make them there once the sacred space was constructed. It should be a divine weapon and a sharp blade now.
In the holy space, as long as you think, you can create anything, but purely thinking requires a lot of faith.
It's best to prepare the materials and then create them, just like the alchemy in the novel.
Yamazaki and Meidaizi know the structure of some firearms, but in this era, they should still use crossbows. Personal crossbows made of twentieth-century materials can be comparable to large crossbows in this era.
In addition, Yamazaki has collected nuclear weapons and analyzed the structure of nuclear weapons, but they should not be used...
Carthage, port.
The slave warrior Fro and the clerk Andreas took gold coins to invest in the Chamber of Commerce and found a suitable chamber of commerce, the Motros Chamber of Commerce.
First of all, it is a small chamber of commerce, so that it will be taken seriously. After all, relatively speaking, it does not have much money.
Secondly, if the crew members are energetic, it means that the company has a bright future; if the crew members are listless, it means that the cohesion is poor and problems are likely to arise in the event of trouble.
Go to the Temple of Apollo to sign a contract. The Gronn family will take half of the caravan's income. If they break up, they will take half according to the size of the caravan at that time.
Although the god of business is Hermes, Apollo is the god of protection and can ensure the execution of contracts.
With the money from the Gron family, the Motros caravan can expand into large small chambers of commerce. As for whether to buy ships to expand its scale and continue to resell wine and wheat in the north and south of the Mediterranean, or to resell high-value commodities, that depends on the business.
It's the team's.
In short, the Gron family only collects money.
As for risks, with Poseidon, the god of the sea, there will be no natural risks in trading in the Mediterranean. There are currently no pirates, and there is no major conflict between the Ostrogothic Kingdom and the Visigothic Kingdom and the Vandal Alan Kingdom.
It is a pity that the trade routes to India were under the control of the Eastern Romans, otherwise they could resell Indian spices and gems, as well as silk and porcelain from the Central Plains...
In October, the first batch of profits arrived. In the name of hunting, they were exchanged for iron ore to make weapons, which were forged by the family's slaves.
In four years, relying on the faith of thousands of animals dedicated every day, Yamazaki built a small sanctuary one-eighth the size of a casket, which was enough to make small swords.
However, Yamasaki doesn't want to mass-produce it yet, he just wants to dress up the slaves he's close to.
Collect or refine materials other than iron from the soil and create them based on the metals in nuclear weapons. I only know that one and slowly explore the others.
As for the effect, it is normal to cut iron as if it were mud. When made into chain armor, it is enough to defend against all human weapons, and it is very light.
For ballistas and the like, a direct hit from the front and shock damage would be fatal enough.
Give the female slave leader Siva and the slave warrior Fro each a set of equipment, including full body chain armor and face armor. Siva has a dagger and Fro has a pair of scimitars.
They were asked to wear the chain mail on the upper body under the leather armor and on top of the inner garment. Speaking of the lower body during the war, they usually did not wear pants on the lower body because of the hot weather.
The chainmail has no burrs, no scratches, and there should be no problem with being corroded by sweat.
The reactions of Siva and Flo were extremely surprising, especially Flo. After testing the power, he even knelt on the ground and kissed his feet...
In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the year again, taxes had to be paid again, and the tribe held another round of voting, but this time the rich people did not agree.
Even if it's for the tribe, it doesn't make sense that they can't help every year, and that their help is in vain.
Therefore, people who cannot pay the taxes have two choices: one is to be unable to pay the taxes and be captured as a slave; the other is to default on the IOU and become a slave if the debt is not paid in the coming year.
As a result, it was naturally the second one.
However, Yamazaki doesn't think so that they will repay the money properly in the coming year...
515 years.
The slaves of the Gron family ate well and slept well, becoming stronger and stronger, and some slave families living together also welcomed newborn babies.
Among them, there were two dystocias, and Yamazaki helped deliver them, using the Holy Land.
Although it takes a lot of faith to move the child to the sacred realm and then to reality, it is also happy.
Of course, no one saw this move. They just thought it was Yamazaki's good fortune that saved the day from danger...
In the spring, Yamazaki made an alloy hand crossbow, but it required a hand to pull it, and it was a bit too powerful. Instead of giving it away, he gave it to Mei Daizi to play with.
Made a batch of hand crossbows of this era out of wood. There were no strings. Half of them were used by myself and half were sold. I made a small fortune and exchanged some slaves for them to free up the family's labor force and give them more time.
train.
Flo reorganized a special escort team, with a total of forty-nine people, equipped with metal equipment made by Yamazaki...
In the summer, the Gelong family's guards conducted actual combat exercises to protect Yamazaki and Meidaizi when they went hunting. In fact, Yamazaki and Meidaizi discussed strengthening the Gelong family's combat effectiveness and bringing back some elephants.
It takes a long time for others to train an elephant into a war elephant. All they need to do is see the elephant.
