Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 98



Chapter 97 weapon shop

On the most prosperous street in Capua, the performance of some actors and actresses caused a congestion, because Li Wei’s weapon shop was about to open.

This weapon shop is close to Li Wei’s Sugar Hotel. Although it is not in harmony with the products sold in the surrounding shops, as a shop that only sells top weapons, these are not problems.

Some people who had bought sugar and spirits were also taken to the weapon shop, because those who could afford sugar and spirits were really able to consume.

These people are either powerful or knights, and even many officers. These are the objects of purchase of top weapons.

But after reading the price, those people are not calm anymore.

A Syrian with a few of his men nearly spit out the rock candy in his mouth, and said with a look of shock: “What kind of sword is that, it sells one million dinars, are you crazy?”

Several major customers have also expressed their dissatisfaction. Although they have money, they cannot be treated as fat sheep.

Valence gave a light cough, and he also complained about Li Wei’s pricing, but faced with Li Wei’s insistence, he had nothing to do.

“Our owner’s goods have always been worth a cent for the goods, and definitely not more than half a Sesters. This sword has added a lot of rare materials, spent a lot of time, and used the family secret crafting method, so It’s so expensive.”

Valence said.

The other people look contemptuous, blow! Blow hard!

Still family secret? Why haven’t they heard of any good swords in the Li Wei family?

The Li Wei family was so poor before, even if they didn’t look at them.

And even the family secret is not worth a million.

Seeing that everyone didn’t believe it, Valence looked helpless.

In fact, not only did they not believe it, even he did not believe it, but in order to complete the Patriarch’s order, he had to work hard to complete this task.

“We have a short sword here that is specially used to test swords. It only costs 10,000 dinars. I don’t know how much this short sword cost?”

Valence said to the Syrian.

Levi weapon shop currently only sells short swords, which are divided into three price ranges, namely 10,000 dinars, 300,000 dinars and 1 million dinars.

Ten thousand dinars are just ordinary carburized steel swords, 300 thousand dinars are 10 daggers, and 1 million dinars are 20 daggers.

In order to promote his weapon, Li Wei “reluctantly” took out a steel sword as a test object.

“My sword is the weapon of a famous Syrian craftsman, worth at least fifty thousand dinars.”

The Syrian said with a proud face. After speaking, he took out his short sword. The scabbard of this sword was studded with precious jewels, which seemed extremely expensive.

“It’s better to let your sword and our cheapest sword cut each other. If your sword wins, we pay you fifty thousand dinars. If your sword loses, we don’t need anything. What do you think? ”

Valence said lightly.

“this one……”

The Syrian hesitated a bit. Since the price of the sword dared to sell for 10,000 dinars, there must be something extraordinary. If he hacked his sword, he would lose a lot.

“No, my sword is very expensive and cannot be used to cut with this sword.”

The Syrian said, but he also figured out a way. He drew out a sword of his entourage, “You can try this sword.”

“no problem.”

Valence said, so he ordered the two guards in the shop to pick up a sword and start a mutual cutting experiment.

Everyone looked at the two swords intently to see which sword was stronger.

“Ding!”

The two swords slammed into each other fiercely, and Valence took a look, then smiled and showed the two swords to everyone.

“It really is a good sword!”

Someone couldn’t help but praise.

They found that there was a huge gap in the sword guarded by the Syrian. As long as two swords were cut at the same place, the sword would be completely finished.

The Syrian nodded secretly. The sword he was guarding was certainly not inferior. The sword was cut with such a big gap, indicating that the quality of the sword was not under his sword.

Listening to everyone’s admiration, a smile appeared on Valence’s face. This is a good start.

“I want to try it too, don’t know if it’s possible.”

At this time, another foreigner said.

He whispered in his heart, the two people shouldn’t be acquaintances, so let’s show them to others.

It’s not that he has never encountered this kind of thing when he does business.

“Of course there is no problem. You can try all the swords here. It’s just that you need to pay 10,000 dinars to try the swords. This is not necessary.”

Valence said with a smile.

Those people couldn’t help but curse secretly after hearing this. They are really black-hearted guys. Trying the sword even cost 10,000 dinars. No wonder Li Wei is so rich.

The foreigner drew a short sword from his hand and conducted another cross-cutting experiment, and Li Wei’s steel sword really won again.

The rest of the people were not to be outdone. They tried it and didn’t want a sword anyway. After a few times, Li Wei’s short swords all won, which attracted their admiration.

So many of those ten thousand steel swords were sold, but none of those 300 thousand dinars and one million dinars were sold.

They believe it is a good sword but it is too expensive.

But some people are interested in those swords, but they still need to go back and discuss it.

As long as some good things can be sold to the local king, they may get a return far exceeding their own value.

Li Wei and Pompeo are walking down the street with some of their subordinates. Although they are not much different in age, they have completely different experiences.

Pompeo has been fighting with his father in the early years, and has already had a wealth of combat experience.

Although Li Wei has always had two legions, and he has made up a lot of military common sense, he still has a huge gap with Pompeo. Therefore, he asked Pompeo for a lot of knowledge. Pompeo did not hesitate to give advice and let Li Wei learn a lot. .

“In order to thank you for your advice, I will give you something good.”

Li Wei said.

“what?”

Pompeo asked.

“Good sword, today is the day when my weapon shop opens, I will give a good sword.”

Li Wei said.

Pompeo doesn’t comment on this. His weapon is a good sword handed down from the family. How can Li Wei’s sword be better?

But facing Li Wei’s kindness, he couldn’t bear to refuse, so he had to follow Li Wei to the weapon shop.

“By the way, who pays for your army salary and food? Is it Sura?”

Li Wei asked.

This is a very important question. I used to think about taking refuge in Sura, but I didn’t even figure it out.

Due to the explosion of food prices, the expenditure of the three legions in a month has exceeded 800,000 dinars, which is an extremely heavy expenditure.

Of course, because Li Wei had stored enough food in advance, the expenditure was far less than that, but it was also enough to make Li Wei heartache.
