Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 15



Chapter 15 Casius

This life is also good, not only became a big landlord, but also a big slave owner.

It’s just that the world is too chaotic. If you don’t work hard, I’m afraid you will become fish on the felt board of others.

“Good job, we find people to cultivate the land and use Roman citizens as much as possible, don’t use slaves, we don’t miss that little money.”

Li Wei said.

“However, one of the wineries suffered a serious loss, and there was a large backlog of wine in the cellar. If these wines are not processed, I am afraid they will go bad.”

Yulia said.

In ancient times, due to process problems, wine could not be kept for a long time. The reason why brandy was born was because of fear of expiration, the wine was distilled, and the brandy was accidentally obtained.

“Move those wines here and I will handle them.”

Li Wei said.

As for how to deal with these wines, Li Wei has already had a solution, which is to take the opportunity to study the distillation technology.

Wine is distilled to be brandy, and mead is distilled to be rum.

Beet is not an all-season crop. If there is no beet, he has to find something for the sugar workers. His solution is to make wine.

“Ok.”

Yulia said.

Since Li Wei awakened, she found that Li Wei had changed a lot, becoming more confident and caring about her, which made her look at Li Wei in admiration.

Li Wei asked about the training situation of the gladiators again. The gladiators he bought were of high quality, but the time was too short, and it was far from becoming a gladiator.

Among them, the general has made the most progress, and he has no rivals in the gladiator training school.

But he still humbly receives Carus’s training, and he looks like a man of firm mind.

At this moment, a guard came in.

“Report to the Patriarch, the taxpayer Cassius (also translated as Cassius) is here.”

“why did he come here?”

Li Wei said suspiciously.

Cassius is a famous knight in Capua. He has made a fortune since he took over Capua’s taxes, and his worth is enough to rank in the top ten in Capua.

“Let him come in.”

Li Wei said.

After a short while, a fat middle-aged man walked in with a gold ring on his hand.

“Hahaha, dear Li Wei, what you have done recently has caused a sensation throughout Capua. Can you share your experience and how you got so much money.”

Cassius said with a big smile.

His face is round like a Maitreya Buddha, and his face is always full of smiles.

But Li Wei knew that this was a guy who really cannibalized people without spitting out bones. He didn’t know how many people were destroyed by him and eventually became slaves.

“This will not take long for you to know.”

Li Wei said, “What can you do?”

“It’s okay, I want to make a statement first, this time is not my intention, but someone reported you for tax evasion, I have to come and check.”

Cassius said with a smile.

“Tax evasion?”

Li Wei’s face is a bit ugly, this is what a **** has done.

How could he, such an upright and law-abiding citizen, do such a thing?

“It’s absolutely nothing, I recently came up with something, I sold a lot of money in Naples, and I should pay a lot of tax.”

Li Wei said.

“What did you do? How much money did you make?”

Cassius asked quickly.

Li Wei thought for a while, there was no way to hide this thing from him, so he told the whole story.

“Sugar, that thing is so valuable?”

Cassius asked in shock.

Li Wei immediately asked people to get the white sugar, and then said sincerely: “The production of white sugar is extremely difficult, but it took me half a year of production to sell so much money.”

He always wanted to conceal this, but he didn’t expect to find it in the name of tax inspection.

This is so irritating!

Now that people know it, please ship it as soon as possible.

Soon someone walked out with some sugar, in addition to some contracts signed during the transaction.

Cassius simply read a few contract documents and put them aside. This is not his main purpose.

He picked up the sugar and tasted it, and his face immediately showed surprise.

“Good thing! Really good thing! This is the sweetest thing I have ever eaten!”

“There are not many of these things in Rome right now. If someone can deliver a lot of sugar to Rome for sale, they will definitely make a lot of money.”

Li Wei said with a smile.

Hearing this, Cassius was very moved.

As a knight, his favorite thing is to make money, not to mention this kind of business that makes money without losing money.

“And this thing can be used to make bread and cakes, make soup, and add it to milk.”

Li Wei continued to tempt.

He ordered the slave to bring out some bread and cakes, and Cassius was immediately conquered by the food after he paid.

is so delicious, the bread he ate before was shit.

He was sure that sugar would be a big seller, and believed that the wealthy Roman nobles would not mind paying extra lovely dinars for these delicious foods.

“Levy, can you sell me some? If I can, Cassius will remember this love. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com”

Cassius said eagerly.

“No problem, I want to know who reported me.”

Li Wei said with a smile.

Hearing this, Cassius looked embarrassed. It was Dior, the nephew of the Capuja administrator who asked him to come. Maybe this was what the administrator meant?

Li Wei was not in a hurry, but waited quietly for Cassius to make a decision. He believed that Cassius would make a wise choice.

“Let them go down.”

Cassius said.

Li Wei nodded, and the slaves quickly left here.

“It was reported by Dior’s slave. Remember to keep it secret for me. I don’t admit that I said this when I went out.”

Cassius said, “He said that was what Dior meant.”

If the consul personally handed it in, he would consider it again and again.

But this is just the meaning of Dior. He and the administrator have two levels of deterrence.

And the administrator can only work for one year, and he will step down in half a year. He is not particularly afraid of the administrator.

is the lingering fellow again, why didn’t he die, Li Wei cursed viciously.

“Thank you very much for your frankness, I will offer you a preferential price, and my shop in Capua will not officially open until ten days later.”

Li Wei stood up and said very gracefully.

“Thank you so much.”

Cassius said with a smile.

These ten days are the ten days when he monopolizes the Roman market. As long as he is bold enough, then he will be able to make a fortune.

So Cassius almost drew a large amount of working capital, ordered 3,000 pounds of sugar from Levi, and then rushed to Rome.
