- Thomas Aquinas (medieval scholastic philosopher and theologian)

After a sleepless night, early the next morning, when the sky was just showing the whiteness of the fish's belly, Bai Feng took his three retinues, escorted by two teams of ironclad cavalry, and went all the way towards the port where the shipbuilding workshop was located.

Regarding how to transfer Upton out of the Lion Legion step by step, Bai Feng did not discuss with anyone, nor did he plan to make specific arrangements in a short period of time; these things will be absolutely secret that no outsiders know!

Bai Feng, who had gained a lot yesterday in military buildings such as cavalry stables, today set his sights on the only shipbuilding workshop that he had not yet visited, and in fact, the treasury of Rome was no longer so well funded.

After yesterday's money-throwing consumption, there are now only 36,470 gold left in the treasury of Rome, and the treasury funds of more than 30,000 gold seem to be more than enough, and I am afraid that it will be spent very quickly, especially under the premise of yesterday's example.

Of course, the exact way to spend it must be the same as yesterday, after all, there are no barbarian warships in Rome that can be sent to the shipbuilding workshop for special training, and more importantly, the shipbuilding workshop should not have any large-scale spending on it.

Bai Feng's own analysis believes that the additional role of the shipbuilding workshop is that it can be used with treasury funds to build transport ships and merchant ships that do not belong to the category of warships; however, the recruitment price of warships is there, and how high can the price of merchant ships and transport ships be?

With this mentality, Bai Feng didn't think that he would need to spend much of the precious treasury funds in the shipyard today, but was the reality really as Bai Feng imagined?

Less than ten minutes after Bai Feng and his party left Rome, Gatus, who was full of excitement, hurried to the governor's residence, and when he learned from the attendants in the mansion that the governor had just left, he turned around and returned to the outside of the city.

It's just that instead of returning to the barracks of his Cheetah Legion, he went to the barracks of the Tasya Legion, and when he saw Gatus with an excited face, Gamilios, who had planned to teach his son a lesson, was shocked by the news brought by his son.

Before last night, Gatus was still a ninth-level senior swordsman, and it would take at least three years before he was promoted to a great swordsman;

With such an astonishing increase in strength, if it weren't for the fact that the person in front of him was his own son, it would be impossible for Gamilios to be killed, and even if Gatus was his own son, he was dumbfounded only after determining his son's strength.

At this moment, Gamilios truly understood why His Excellency the Governor had instructed his father and son not to say anything when he gave his son the energy ball yesterday, and it turned out that His Excellency the Governor's gift was so heavy!

Gamilios, who had recovered from the shock, first repeatedly asked his son not to tell anyone about this matter, and then he slowly sorted out his thoughts and began to think about the deep meaning of Governor Baifeng's move.

Bai Feng, who rode his horse to the shipyard for several hours, and before he jumped off his horse, he found that the loyalty attribute table that had just been activated last night had changed again, and Gamilios, who was originally extremely loyal, became the second general to be loyal to him!

The father and son, Gamilios and Gatus, have become die-hard generals who will never betray them, which means that the Tasia Legion and the Cheetah Legion, led by the two of them, will become their most trusted barbarian army.

Such a significant change prompted Bai Feng to make up his mind to build a shooting range that could train longbowmen and crossbowmen as soon as the market was built, and when the range was completed, the comprehensive training of the Tasia Legion and the Cheetah Legion could begin.

All the decisions in his mind were made by Bai Feng in an instant, and soon his attention returned to the reality in front of him, and the next trip to the shipbuilding workshop was the purpose of his trip today.

Recently, because the cooperative road construction plan between the city of Rome and the kingdom of Aceni has entered the implementation stage, the trading fleets of Alan and Ike have also become a special grain transport fleet, continuously transporting the grain of the city of Rome to the east bank of the Cangluo River.

So much so that when Bai Feng came to the port today, he didn't even see the two of them, but fortunately Bai Feng didn't come to look for them, so he went straight to the shipbuilding workshop and didn't stay in the port for long.

The shipbuilding workshops adjacent to the port of Rome are completely devoid of the hustle and bustle of the port, and the shipbuilders are chatting about the interesting things on both sides of the Cangluo River while passing the time in boredom.

Such a deserted scene made Bai Feng, who was accustomed to being positive and enthusiastic, very uncomfortable, and his face immediately showed displeasure, and in a serious tone, he asked Maxi to call the person in charge of the shipyard.

Maxi, who was Bai Feng's entourage, could naturally feel Bai Feng's dissatisfaction and anger, so after receiving Bai Feng's order, he immediately went to the person in charge of the shipbuilding workshop, and brought this person in charge to Bai Feng's eyes with a bad attitude.

Looking at the chubby, smiling shipbuilding workshop in front of him, who looked like a Maitreya Buddha, Bai Feng's dissatisfied mood did not improve in the slightest, but worsened a little; perhaps, the carelessness of the shipbuilders was inseparable from this fat-headed and big-eared person in charge!

Perhaps it was Bai Feng's attitude that made the person in charge feel the chill, he quickly restrained his smile, and reported the situation of the shipbuilding workshop to Bai Feng one by one with a serious face, without even the slightest concealment.

After listening to the report of the person in charge, Bai Feng realized that he might have misblamed this chubby guy just now, and the shipbuilding workshop was indeed very different from the military buildings in other Roman cities in terms of attributes.

The special role of the shipbuilding workshops was, indeed, as Bai Feng had anticipated, to build transports and merchant ships for the city of Rome that were not classified as warships, but they were equally different from other military buildings.

Other military buildings, without Bai Feng's order, will still be trained to be young and strong, but the shipbuilding workshop, without obtaining the governor's treasury funds, can build new transport ships and merchant ships without authorization, this is what Bai Feng saw when he came.

After understanding the inside story, Bai Feng's misunderstanding of the person in charge was resolved, but Bai Feng's mood did not become clearer, because the construction price of transport ships and merchant ships was really beyond Bai Feng's imagination!

A single transport ship costing up to 1,000 gold and a single merchant ship costing up to 1,500 gold are completely equivalent to the recruitment price of two or three double or triple battleships;
