Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 2



Chapter 2 Free slave (released slave)

There are Celts, Germans, Syrians, and Carthaginians, but they are all strong, tall and powerful, and muscular as if they are a bodybuilder.

After watching their training for a while, Li Wei waved his hand and said, “Everyone, stop.”

These gladiators all stopped. They looked at Li Wei with indifferent eyes, some even with faint disdain, but no one dared to disobey Li Wei’s orders.

“Now I announce a very important decision. All gladiators who have won ten games can become free slaves. He will be given the clan name of Bosius and become a member of the family guard.”

Li Wei said loudly.

The scene fell silent for a while, and everyone looked at Li Wei in shock.

Is he crazy? How could you say such a thing?

How to release gladiator slaves on such a large scale?

and he is a good player among the gladiators. It is easy to win ten games. In many cases, it is deadly to lose. This is the real battle with life. Just count the chances to know how difficult it is.

Li Wei looked at everyone awkwardly, shouldn’t there be applause at this time?

“Don’t you want to?”

Li Wei touched his nose and said.

“Master, are you telling the truth?”

said a gladiator about 1.8 meters or more, with short black hair and scars all over his body.

“Of course it’s true, Dole. You have participated in three years of gladiatorial fights. As long as you are willing to sign a contract, you are free.”

Li Wei said.

“Thank you…Master. I, Dole, must defend the honor of the Li Wei family with the sword in my hand. If I break this oath, I will be in **** forever.”

The gladiator knelt down with excitement, tears streaming down his eyes uncontrollably.

How many years has it been?

Since becoming a gladiator, he has almost become numb, because there is no hope of freedom at all.

Those who are able to gain freedom are simply rare. There are only a few cases that Capua has heard of, and in recent years there has not been a single case.

“Thank you, Master… I Otto is willing to defend the honor of the family with the sword in my hand. If I break this oath, let me…”

“I Cassius is willing to defend the honor of the family with the sword in my hand. If I break this oath, let me…”

More and more gladiators knelt down, whether they met the conditions or not.

Even if the conditions are not met now, there will be such a day sooner or later.

“After you become free slaves, you must become a member of the family guard, be absolutely loyal to the family, and work until you are 40 years old. The family will pay you 10 dinars a month for you to take care of food and shelter. After you are 40, you You will be truly free! Are you willing?”

Li Wei said.

The dinar is one of the common currencies in ancient Rome. There are copper dinars and silver dinars, and their size is always changing.

The current silver dinar coin is approximately 3.9 grams and is worth 4 sesters or 16 **** (as).

The annual salary of a Roman soldier in service is about 112.5 dinars, which means that Levi’s salary is more than that of a Roman soldier.

And the Roman soldiers didn’t care about food. They also had to pay for food, and sometimes they didn’t have enough to eat.

“Yes!”

“Of course I do!”

“…”

In their eyes, Li Wei has become the most merciful master in Rome, although this master looks a little stupid.

If you think about it in another way, they will never let go of even a slave.

A confident smile appeared at the corner of Li Wei’s mouth, and he waved his hand: “Go and prepare. I will hand over the official documents to the officials in Capuya. By the way, you have to pay the slave tax yourself. If you don’t have the money, you can Borrow it from me first.”

The gladiators all cheered, and some directly shaved their hair with their swords.

Every free slave will shave off their hair, and then wear a special dalmatian hat to show their status as a free slave.

The rookies among those gladiators looked at them with envy, and at the same time made up their minds to win the next gladiator matches and strive for more than ten victories.

Just as Li Wei was about to leave, a big man with a whip and a face full of flesh came over.

“Respected master, you gave them freedom, what about the family income? Then the family will go bankrupt, and I firmly oppose this.”

This big man is the gladiator trainer Carus, who once won the title of Capuya God of War.

Because of his old age, he became the gladiator coach in the family.

Hearing this, the gladiators looked at him with cannibalistic eyes.

Such a rare opportunity, if they lose their freedom again because of his persuasion, they vowed to kill him.

“We will get a new income channel, the family’s income will increase greatly, and the family will buy more slave gladiators to train. Don’t worry about this.”

Li Wei said.

Carus felt that Li Wei was too messy, he was about to continue to persuade him, Li Wei’s next sentence directly plunged him into ecstasy.

“By the way, go and prepare. Congratulations, Carus, you are free from now on, but you still need to be in charge of the gladiator training mission.”

Li Wei said.

“What did you say… Master… Just now, UU read www.uukanshu.com I didn’t hear clearly.”

Carus opened his eyes wide and stammered.

Did he hear me wrong just now? Is he free? ? ?

Is he not dreaming?

“In view of your contribution to the family, you will be free from now on. Remember to sign a contract when you look back, otherwise it won’t count.”

Li Wei patted his shoulder lightly and said.

“I…I…I’m free.”

Like being struck by a flash of lightning, Carus was completely stunned, tears streaming down his eyes uncontrollably.

After so many years of dedication to the family, he finally achieved a positive result.

“Thank you…Master.”

Carus directly knelt down and knocked his head severely.

When he looked up, he found that Li Wei had left here.

In a bright room, Li Wei wrote the contract on a piece of papyrus.

Papyrus is made from the stem of an aquatic plant of the Nile River. The method is to cut the stem into thin slices, and then put the vertical layer of fibers on top of the horizontal layer.

Finally, the two layers of hammers are put together and glued together with their own plant glue. After drying, the surface can be polished.

This kind of paper is too far from ancient Chinese paper, and it is not easy to preserve. Li Wei felt that he had discovered another way to make money.

He decided to make a harsh contract to let them work well for themselves. If they don’t work, they must pay sky-high compensation.

Although this kind of treaty is excessive, I believe that every Roman slave will rush to sign this kind of contract if he breaks his scalp.

There were footsteps outside, and Yulia soon appeared in front of him with a pair of long legs and two timid slaves.
