Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 179 Greeting

"Let him come here."

Levi said.

After receiving Li Wei's order, the soldiers let Quintus come over.

"Quintus, long time no see."

Li Wei said with a smile, and then hugged him gently.

Quintus' face was touched, he didn't expect Li Wei to think highly of him after he became a big shot.

"Recently...you don't come out very often, you stay in Dragon City all day, and you can't see you even if you want to."

Quintus said nervously.

"Do you know him well?"

Tullius asked curiously.

"We used to be friends and often played together. What's the matter with you?"

Levi said.

A strange light flashed in Tullius' eyes. He didn't expect Quintus and Li Wei to have such a good relationship. It seems that the plan to suppress him should stop.

"This... I really want to ask you for help with a small matter. For some reason, the arena doesn't want me to participate in this year's competition, so..."

Quintus said.

"Is there such a thing, Tullius."

Levi asked.

Tullius is the magistrate this year, and he has the right to intervene in these matters.

"I'm not very clear about this. Let me ask later. It shouldn't be a big problem."

Tullius said with a light cough.

"Now you see the matter is settled."

Li Wei said with a smile.

"Thank you very much. Our family plans to hold a banquet recently. I wonder if you are interested in enjoying it."

Quintus said gratefully, there are some things they can't do even if they run away, but it's just a matter of a few people's words.

Hearing this, Li Wei looked hesitant.

To say that Quintus' home is a dragon's den and a tiger's den, and the Big Three under Spartacus have all gathered, and there is only one Spartacus who can raise the banner of rebellion and raise the banner against Rome.

"It's fine if you're busy."

Quintus saw his reluctance.

"I've been a little busy recently, and I have a lot of things to do."

Li Wei said apologetically, "How is Uncle Titas doing?"

"Has he been dead for a long time?"

Quintus said.

"When did this happen?"

Li Wei asked in shock.

"A year ago, when you went to Pompeii, I didn't inform you."

Quintus said.

"It's such a pity."

Li Wei sighed, but he didn't expect Titas to die.

At this moment, Lucias walked over anxiously, and said something quietly.

"What did you say? Our ship to Egypt was robbed by pirates?"

Li Wei said in shock.

Which bastard dared to rob his own transport ship!

"Yes, we just got the news. Several oarsmen jumped into the sea to escape, and were later rescued by another ship, so the news was passed on."

said Lucias.

"How much did you lose?"

"About 300,000 dinars."

Li Wei's heart is about to bleed, 300,000 dinars.

Although not too much, it is also his hard-earned money.

Tullius was shocked, 300,000 dinars, his little half.

As for Quintus, not to mention, his total net worth is less than 100,000 dinars.

"Check! Be sure to find out those damned pirates for me, and I will crucify them all."

Li Wei said angrily.

At this time, he was not in the mood to watch any arena games, so he hurriedly bid farewell to Quintus and the others, and then wrote several letters to Rome, hoping that Rome would allow him to send troops to conquer the pirates.

But these letters fell into the sea like mud cows, and did not get any response.

Just when Li Wei thought it would have no effect, Sulla and the current consul Catullus wrote him a letter respectively, and Catullus asked him to go to Rome to be questioned about the detention of the judge.

A letter from Sulla told him good news and invited him to Rome.

Li Wei immediately ordered people to pack up their luggage, and then drove to Dragon City with some soldiers.

***

At the gate of Rome, more than a dozen justices, treasurers, security guards, and some Roman Senate elders, but their guards are waiting here. These are Serabio, Lebiris, and Belieus. and others.

Although Li Wei's guards were broken up by Sura, this caused a great loss in his strength.

However, Li Wei grabbed unimaginable wealth during the civil war, plus he made a lot of money in the battle of Africa. Er is used to buy land.

The number of Roman citizens in Li Wei's hands is increasing every year. According to Li Wei's estimation, he also has at least 50,000 Roman citizens in his hands.

It was by relying on these Roman citizens that Livi pushed his men into Roman politics.

Every year there is a magistracy, 2-3 treasurers, and at least one civilian tribune who is his person, forming the Li Wei system in Rome.

In addition to these people, Marcian was also sent here by him.

As a leader of the intelligence team, in addition to developing some intelligence organizations in Rome, he also shouldered the business of lending money to the elders of the Senate.

He was greatly inspired by Crassus in his previous life, and he decided to learn from Crassus and lend money to those elders without interest to gain their support.

In fact, this effect is very good, and some veterans want to go further, which requires a lot of money.

At least more than 100 senators owed Li Wei's debts, which gave Li Wei a huge influence in the Senate.

Serabio and the others were talking in low voices, and burst into laughter from time to time.

At this moment, someone shouted: "Look, the Patriarch is here."

The five-clawed golden dragon flag in the distance appeared in their line of sight, and a huge team was getting closer and closer to them.

The whole of Rome is not safe now, and Li Wei has to bring a large number of guards when traveling.

"Haha, Serabio, long time no see, why have you gained weight recently?"

Li Wei hugged Serabio fiercely, and then asked suspiciously.

"This... this..."

Serapio was speechless in embarrassment.

"He's divorced."

Justice Liberias said.

"So that's it. Congratulations, Serabio, you don't have to suffer any more at night."

Li Wei said mysteriously, and everyone else burst out laughing.

"Patriarch, what do you mean? I divorced Sempronia because she cheated on her."

Serapio said dissatisfied.

"Understand...understand..."

Li Wei said with a smile, and the others laughed even louder.

The veins on Serabio's forehead were throbbing with anger. If it wasn't for Li Wei who said this, he would definitely rush forward and punch him.

After some people said hello, everyone walked towards the city gate.

"The news that Justice Belius was captured by pirates has already been known to the Senate."

Serabio said that after resigning from the Governor of Africa, he automatically became a senator of the Roman Senate.

"Has the Senate made any decisions?"

Levi asked.

"Now the Senate is panicking because of Lepidus' opposition to Sulla, and they don't have the energy to deal with this matter at all."

Liberias said.
