When Alexander heard this, he paused, and replied: "He is a man, and he has to take care of his own affairs, and if he can't even solve it with the guards, there is no need to cooperate with him." ”

Yu Ji didn't know how to answer, so he had to secretly pray that Zhang Bai would turn evil into good fortune.

The four of them had nothing to say for a while, so they had to drink silently, and the scene was embarrassing.

In the end, it was Inaro who spoke first, "Then why don't we talk about some serious things first?"

"What's the matter?" Alexander asked.

"For example, this time, why did Your Majesty summon us and others? We are just a team of mercenaries, did Your Majesty spend so much effort to hire us to participate in some war?"

"Mercenaries, I didn't treat you as mercenaries, and I don't think Zhang Bai thought of himself as a mercenary either. Alexander took a sip of his wine and waved his hand.

"I finally understand why you adults would follow a child's command. I don't think it's because he has the identity of a Zoroastrian ahurama, it's not because he has the blessings of the master, and it's not because he has cultivated profoundly. It's because only he knows what you're supposed to do. ”

Listening to Alexander's words, Dao Lao and Yu Ji looked at each other and fell into deep thought.

"Hahaha, Alexander, I've found that what you do best is to talk to death. Suddenly there was laughter at the door of the internal medicine department.

The four of them turned their faces in unison, and standing at the door was Zhang Bai, a child dressed as a servant, with delicate eyebrows and sophisticated eyes.

"How did you get in?" Maximinus was nervous and a little annoyed, he had several masters around the infirmary, but it seemed to be useless.

"Bang!" Suddenly two masked men in white jumped in from the window, holding short spears in their hands, and as soon as they entered the room, they immediately guarded behind Alexander, and when they saw Zhang Bai, they scolded sharply: "Who is it? ”

"Who? I'm a guest he's invited. Zhang Bai replied unceremoniously. Then he asked Alexander, "Hey, what kind of bishop are you good emperor?"

Alexander was very proud, shaking his wine glass and smiling, "Only if you can be Ahurama, can't I be a bishop?"

"Is it the Temple Church in Jerusalem?" In this regard, Zhang Bai had already inquired and knew that the strongest church in Jerusalem was different from the previous life, and it was called the Temple.

"You're very smart, you guessed it at once. Alexander waved his hand to calm the two white-robed masked guards.

Zhang Bai gave Yu Ji and Dao Lao a salute each, walked to the table, sat down next to Alexander and Yu Ji, looked at the warm red wine, smashed his mouth, and said, "I want a glass too!"

Yuji hesitated slightly, and Alexander motioned to Maximinus, and immediately added a glass and poured a large glass of mulled wine.

"It's finally time to talk, sorry for the crowds today. Alexander said.

"Your Majesty Elder Alexandria doesn't have to be polite, you are true to your word, we will have a lot of cooperation in the future. Zhang Bai tasted a sip of wine and didn't dare to drink more, his body was a child, and it was not good to be drunk.

At this time, Maximinus suddenly got up and said loudly to Ji and Daolao: "Your Majesty has something important to discuss, please avoid it, please!"

The sentence "there are a lot of people" just now was said to Yu Ji and them, so this directly issued an eviction order?

Zhang Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, and glanced at Yu Ji Daolao, and the two didn't dare to disobey, so they left together with Maximinus and the white-robed guards.

Only Alexander and Zhang Bai were left in the house.

"Alright, we can talk, my Lord Ahurama. ”

"My Lord Bishop of the Temple. ”

The two laughed, "The temple is a religion recognized by Rome, and I, as a bishop, am actually anonymous, and only the core personnel of the temple know about it. ”

"What about your pope?" Zhang Bai actually didn't know much about the temple, in his previous life he only knew that Christianity had a Holy See in the Vatican, where there was a pope who was the absolute spiritual leader. As for what the bishop did, he didn't really know, and he didn't know why this temple church, which didn't exist in the previous life.

"Pope?" Alexander was a little surprised, in fact, there was no pope in that era. Although the temple was recognized by Rome, it was not the exclusive religion of the Roman Empire, and it was impossible for the Roman emperor to concurrently serve as the pope in his previous life.

"It's an interesting title, maybe try it in the future. Alexander muttered to himself.

"Of course, this title will be recognized by everyone. Zhang Bai replied as a matter of course, in fact, he did not know the origin of the papal title, but he was just straightforward.

"I'm not here to talk about this today, I'm sorry to arrest your friend, I have to promise you'll come, I don't have much time to stay here, I'll have to go back to Rome soon." ”

"You just say it, right?" Zhang Bai said: "We used to be friends, and we still are." ”

You know, the greatest desire of the Roman man was to conquer the world, and our empire should include the Mediterranean region including Egypt, Persia, and India. I won't say much about this, just what I urgently need. To reproduce the miracle of Alexander the Great, I need a reliable army loyal to myself, and the army needs money, a source of money..."

"Taxation or commerce, that is, land and trade routes, plus the origin of goods, right?" Zhang Bai felt that this was similar to the shopping mall negotiations in his previous life.

"That's right, so Persia is the biggest problem. Who's to blame, you say?" said of Alexander, with a scheming expression, waiting for Zhang Bai to make an offer.

"In my opinion, Persia could not hinder the trade of high-value products, such as silk, porcelain, tea, spices, gold and silver, etc. Only those commodities that are transported in large quantities will be hindered, such as horses, cattle and sheep, slaves, timber, copper and iron ore, etc. So what exactly does Rome need?"

"You have summed it up well, let's talk about the needs of the big man first!" Alexander was reluctant to make an offer first.

"Okay! Dahan has high-value goods, and we're good at producing them. I have spaceships, and as long as I have the money, I can build dozens of them, and I can constantly travel back and forth between Han and Rome, and Persia will not cause us any trouble.

And the products produced in Rome are all products with large transportation volumes, which we need very much, but the transportation is not easy, and we do need the stability of the Persian region. Zhang Bai said.

"That said, it doesn't matter if you give me Persia. Alexander smiled at him defiantly.

"In principle, that's true!" Zhang Bai did not back down. "The Roman occupation of Persia was acceptable from the point of view of the Great Han. But I really doubt that Rome will be able to control Persia and maintain stability all the time?"

"You doubt the power of Rome?"

"No, no, don't get me wrong, how can I doubt the power of the Roman army? But conquest is one thing, domination is another. As an emperor, I think you should have already experienced it!"
