Roman Empire of Total War

Jesus risked his life, and the living should deserve to repent.

——Umberto Eco (the world's most well-known authority on symbolic linguistics)

After the population problem is solved, the only thing that needs to be solved by Bai Feng is the capital income problem of Rome City; the monthly income of Rome City was 20,000 gold treasury funds last month. Ten is not easy.

The port in the small town of Aisini is still under construction. Judging from the progress of the existing projects, there is almost no possibility of completion and completion within this month; even if Bai Feng can send additional troops to build, it can be completed at the end of the month at most. That's it.

This also means that the population of more than 100,000 in the town of Aisini is difficult to make an effective contribution to the monthly income of the city of Rome this month; as for Queen Budeka’s kingdom of Aisini, the long distance They are temporarily meaningless to the city of Rome.

The hinterland of Queen Budeka’s Essini Kingdom and the town of Essini in Rome are nearly a month away; such a long distance has severely weakened the connection between Rome and Essini. Too.

In the planning of Baifeng, the construction of the port of the town of Essini is only the first step in strengthening the connection between the city of Rome and the east bank of the Cangluo River; The Kingdom of Nepal is linked to the city of Rome.

As long as this road can be built, the people of the Kingdom of Aisini will be able to use horse-drawn carriages or oxcarts to depart from the hinterland of the Kingdom of Aisini and arrive at the port of Aisini in the city of Rome within ten days.

In the same way, the caravans in Rome and the merchants in other small towns can also freely travel between the east and west sides of the Cangluo River; by that time, the internal links and development of the forces of the whole Rome will enter a new Stage.

Bai Feng, who already has a stable development plan, only needs to develop the city of Rome according to his own plan, and he can gradually make the city of Rome towards a stronger future; but now, his most important thing is how to quickly improve the city of Rome. monthly income.

Neither the town of Essini on the east bank of the Cangluo River nor the Queen Essini Kingdom of Boudica can contribute anything to the monthly income of the city of Rome in the short term; especially the Queen Essini Kingdom of Boudica, III Within a month, Bai Feng had no hope for them.

Since the east bank of the Cangluo River cannot increase the monthly income of the Roman city, only five towns on the west bank of the Cangluo River can be expected by Bai Feng; the residents of these five towns were a few days before the new year. But it gave Bai Feng a big surprise.

When various grand New Year celebrations are held in the city of Rome, residents from five small towns flocked into the city of Rome. They not only added liveliness to the city's New Year activities, but also promoted the further prosperity of the city's economy.

Countless goods in the shops in the city of Rome were bought by these barbarians who had never seen anything in the world as a rare thing; even if each town resident spent only one silver coin, the total cost of 10,000 town resident Up to one thousand gold coins!

In fact, many small towns cost more than one silver coin. Those former family leaders of various tribes, as well as the families of soldiers who served in the Roman city army, have enough funds to spend in Rome.

Even for the most ordinary town residents, the grain produced in their farmland can be turned into gold and silver coins, and then they can be used as a luxury in the New Year; know that all the township residents’ surplus grain It was previously bought at a high price by the city of Rome.

According to the data report provided by Baier to Bai Feng, in the ten days of the New Year, at least 150,000 people in the town came to Rome with the gold coins in their pockets; and their total consumption exceeded One hundred thousand gold coins!

Although this huge amount of money did not fall into Bai Feng’s pocket, it flowed into the city of Rome; almost all the shops and businesses in Rome have earned a pot in this new year. Bai Feng does not need this The data of Yue'er can be seen.

In the past, the residents of the city of Rome rejected the barbarian soldiers stationed outside the city, and even the residents of the city of Rome maliciously made some provocative actions outside the military barracks outside the city; I don't know what will happen.

These inhabitants of the Roman city are so badly repulsive to the barbarian warriors who protect them, let alone other barbarian residents; until after the start of this new year’s event, a large number of barbarian people poured into the city of Rome. Was warmly welcomed.

The residents of the city of Rome, who can easily earn a lot of gold coins from the pockets of the barbarians, completely changed their previous attitude of repelling the barbarians; so that if anyone who dares to repel the barbarians in the city of Rome, they will immediately suffer from the merchants of the city of Rome Join forces to fight.

Such a situation was what Bai Feng wanted to see. He naturally would not intervene in the collaboration of the merchants of the Roman city; but there was one thing that Bai Feng must intervene, that is, the merchant's setting of commodity prices.

No matter how much the barbarian people do not understand the actual value of the goods of Rome, but it is impossible to change the actual value of those goods; as the relationship between Rome and the small towns in the future will become closer, the actual value of these goods will soon be used by the barbarians The people know.

Bai Feng absolutely does not allow the merchants of the city of Rome to deceive those barbarians with deliberately increased prices; because in doing so, it is not the barbarians who are really damaged, but the credibility of the city itself and the authority of the governor, Bai Feng .

Therefore, in response to the price of goods in Rome, Bai Feng specifically implemented a new decree in time on the third day after the beginning of the new year: stipulating the price of all goods in Rome, the new year’s increase is not allowed to exceed 1/3 of the previous price, otherwise All confiscated!

This decree was also implemented by Bai Feng after careful thinking, the purpose is to stabilize the price of commodities in the city of Rome; one-third of the increase in the price of commodities is enough for the merchants in the city of Rome to obtain a lot of profits, and it is also enough to prevent the barbarians from suffering. The feeling of deception.

Facts have proved that businessmen will always make violations of laws and regulations under high profits; until Bai Feng’s guard camp continuously punished 12 shops, this kind of price increase in disregard of laws and regulations was completely stopped. Go on.

At this time, the merchants in the city of Rome who realized the majesty of the decree gave up their idea of ​​wanting to increase prices privately; the attitude of the merchants was very different from the attitude of the small town residents. They applauded the decree of Baifeng. , Full of praise.

A temporary decree was introduced, which made Bai Feng's prestige rise in the minds of the barbarians. This was an unexpected gain from Bai Feng's own; then, feeling the availability of Bai Feng in the hearts of the people, this temporary decree was changed to Rome. The permanent decree of the city.

Ten days before the new year, the prosperity of the city of Rome was only a lively event. After the New Year’s activities were over, the barbarians who came to the city of Rome gradually left; now Bai Feng wants to greatly increase the income of the city of Rome. Also placed on these people.
