In the quiet late night, with a crescent moon hanging high above, the autumn night always makes people feel suddenly brighter.
However, this was not Allen's mood at this moment. His feeling of vague uneasiness was getting deeper and deeper. He silently played with a silver coin he had just picked up on the road in a small village in his hand and pondered quietly. This was a silver coin by Osman.
The silver coin minted and issued by the empire, the Akche silver coin, weighed approximately fifteen grams.
By the campfire, Kevin and William were discussing something quietly. But Tina was...
"Hahaha! Got rich! Got rich!" Tina was as happy as a child who found a toy. Well...she did find a treasure.
Tina was holding a bag of silver coins that she had just plundered from the small village that had been deserted after the attack. There were more than 700 silver coins! This was a huge sum of money! At this time, she was holding this bag.
A big bag of silver coins weighing more than ten kilograms, with a face full of happiness
I was so happy that my mouth was drooling all over the floor. If Allen hadn't urged him to leave quickly, Tina wouldn't have known how long she would have been rummaging around in that village. The wealth of a small village with thousands of people
But it's much more than that.
"You've been giggling all night, so what..." William looked at Tina's joy and said with great disdain.
"Get out! I have never seen so much money in my life! Isn't it making people happy?" Tina said dissatisfied, her face bulging with anger.
"Keep your voice down, we are discussing a problem." William said slightly unhappily.
"Are you thinking about the attack on that village again?" Tina asked casually. She was still immersed in the joy of a sudden windfall. How could she be in the mood to think so much? Sure enough, robbery was the most enjoyable and the money was the best.
quick!
"Yes, this matter is really strange." Kevin interrupted at this time, he was sometimes very helpless by the habitual bickering between the two people.
To be honest, Kevin also thinks that Tina's behavior of making money from dead people is a bit immoral. However, everyone is so familiar with it, so it's hard to say anything. Besides, sooner or later, the money there will be discovered by people passing by.
It doesn’t matter who takes it away, isn’t it the same?
"Everyone, let's go to bed early. Let's get some sleep and then continue on the road." Allen suddenly said at this time.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Tina dissatisfied. If Allen hadn't insisted on urging everyone to get on the road, she would have almost realized her dream of collecting a thousand silver coins for the first time in her life!
"I have a very bad premonition. Let's hurry up and get on our way." Allen explained, but he still did not reveal his guess. After all, it was just a guess. However, his sixth sense has always been very effective, so
, Allen hopes that everyone can enter Sarajevo as soon as possible. At least it is a big city with a population of more than 500,000. If there is any crisis, it will not be just for a few of them. Even if the sky is really falling.
Yes, there are taller people there too.
"Bah! You're a crow's mouth!" Tina said dissatisfied. It is not a good thing to ruin people's wealth.
So, a group of people gathered around the campfire, chatted for a while, then laid down on the floor and fell asleep...
The dawn of dawn lifts off the veil of night, revealing the faint morning light, ushering in a new day.
"Everyone, get up, let's get on the road quickly." Allen woke everyone up one by one.
"It's just dawn! Why are you in such a hurry!?" Tina was most dissatisfied. She was sleeping soundly holding her large bag of silver coins, drooling non-stop, obviously having a sweet dream. At this time, she was called
When she woke up, her dream of being rich was interrupted, and she was really depressed.
Under Allen's urging, the group of people had to continue on their way on horseback. As they got closer to Sarajevo, more and more caravans were on the road. These caravans far exceeded Ai in terms of the number of people and the quality of their goods.
Lun and others have seen it in the empire.
There are gorgeous silk carpets from Persia, a variety of glassware, as well as beautiful porcelain and fragrant tea produced in the more distant East. There are also things that make Kevin’s eyes gleam, just
A muscular thoroughbred horse that only exists in Arabia. However, it’s a pity that Kevin has no money. And Tina’s mouth watered when she saw it. There were some rare things that she had never seen in her life.
Along with these business trips, Tina bought a lot of exquisite gadgets, and spent more than two hundred silver coins. Allen and others were speechless. This woman was not only
He is greedy for money and very prodigal...
In short, while following and talking with these business travelers, everyone had a general impression of the prosperous business atmosphere and open and inclusive atmosphere of Sarajevo. Subsequently, their favorable impression of the city also increased significantly, and the pace of progress continued.
Consciously, it is faster.
Finally, Allen and his group arrived at Sarajevo, a city that had changed hands repeatedly in history, at noon three days later.
They had not yet entered the city. They looked towards the city gate from a distance. They saw people coming and going, and there was a hustle and bustle. Carriages and caravans were constantly vying to enter the city, and business travelers were constantly leaving the city. Just looking from a distance, they could see the city.
The city is bustling and lively, with a strong commercial atmosphere.
"Wow! What a big city..." Tina was also excited to see it. Especially the rich commodities brought by the caravans she encountered along the way made Tina even more eager to enter the city.
In fact, when Sarajevo was still in the hands of the Holy Roman Empire a few decades ago, it was not as prosperous and lively as it is now, and the population was not so large. On the contrary, it was a military town used on the front line to fight against the Ottoman Empire. However, when the Ottoman Empire conquered
After this city, in order to facilitate its rule, many different ethnic groups and 200,000 to 300,000 people were moved in from the hinterland of the empire, diluting Sarajevo, which originally had a single ethnic group and a single belief.
It is precisely because of this that Sarajevo has become a city with a population of more than half a million and a mixture of ethnic groups. To effectively rule such a city with different beliefs and the use of multiple languages, whether it is for
Both internally and externally, we need an open and inclusive spirit and corresponding relevant policies.
Coupled with the Ottoman Empire's successive victories in the Eastern Expeditions, the Ottoman Empire basically monopolized the land trade routes between Eurasia. Therefore, many commodities from the far East had to come overland if they wanted to enter the Europa continent.
Arrive in Sarajevo. After decades of development, the city of Sarajevo has quickly turned into a prosperous, lively, tolerant and open commercial city.
"Let's go in." Allen felt a little more relaxed at the moment. He believed that once he entered the city, there wouldn't be much danger.
What Allen didn't know was that precisely because he entered Sarajevo, this crisis soon followed, and he was doomed...
