- Sophocles (Athenian, one of the three great Athenian tragic writers)
After getting the matter of the eight small god statues, Bai Feng's coveting heart for the four big god statues naturally sprouted; compared to those small god statues, Bai Feng believed that the big god statues would definitely have a stronger power of faith, which was enough for Bai Feng to see from the more outdated surface of the big god statues, these four big god statues were definitely the oldest gods in this temple.
However, Bai Feng would not recklessly bring up the idea of getting the four great gods at such a time, and after all the eight small gods were sacrificed to the Apollo Temple, Bai Feng naturally had a way to let the druids take the initiative to send them to the door.
In such a temple of druids, if all eight minor idols were replaced by statues made of pure silver, would it be appropriate to use old wooden idols for the four large idols?
When the time comes, Bai Feng will send some craftsmen from the city of Rome to the Tasya tribe to help the Tasya tribe renovate the temple, and at that time, Bai Feng believes that the druids of the Tasya tribe will find a way to exchange the large god statue for a new one.
In order to win the respect of the Tasia tribe and the approval of the druids, Bai Feng once again took out four silver idols in exchange for the great gods of the druids, such a move can make the city of Rome gain higher loyalty from the Tasia tribe, and can also allow the druids, who have a high status in the entire barbarian world, to establish friendly relations with the city of Rome, why not Bai Feng?
The most important thing is the special effect of these gods on the High Priest of Binglan, as long as she can help the High Priest of Binglan prolong her life and pay something similar to silver as a price, Bai Feng's eyes will not blink.
After leaving the temple of the gods, Bai Feng and Gatus wandered around the rest of the Tasya tribe camp, although the trade between Rome City and the Tasia tribe had only begun for about half a month, but the effect was obvious.
Many people in the camp of the Tasia tribe have begun to use some utensils from the city of Rome, such as pottery used to hold water in the city of Rome, iron pots used for cooking, etc., which can also be found by Bai Feng in this camp.
Trade with the civilized world is definitely the only way for the barbarian tribe to quickly enter a higher level of civilization, but unfortunately, the civilized forces of this world are not willing to give such conditions to the people of the barbarian tribe, and Bai Feng will not refuse such a practice.
The trade between the city of Rome and the tribes of Tassia will not only help the tribes of Tasia to strengthen themselves and promote the development of the tribes of Tasia towards a higher civilization, but also increase the income of trade in the city of Rome, which is a truly mutually beneficial thing.
Bai Feng had not been to the Tasia tribe before, but he also knew that the barbarians of the Tasia tribe would definitely be full of hatred towards the people of the Roman city, after all, the three thousand five hundred young men of the Tasia tribe died at the hands of the Roman army, and there were only a few people in the entire Tasia tribe.
But now Bai Feng can not see the eyes of hatred in the eyes of the barbarians of the Tasya tribe, whether it is a person in the civilized world or a person in the barbarian world, the eyes are the windows of a person's heart, and Bai Feng believes that their eyes will not lie.
After walking casually for a while, Gatus took Bai Feng and his three retinues to a rest house that Gamilios had prepared a long time ago, this house was considered luxurious for the entire Tasia tribe, and it was where Bai Feng and the others stayed tonight.
Looking at the house in front of him that was even more dilapidated than the governor's residence where he once lived, Bai Feng could only helplessly sigh at the poverty and backwardness of the Tasya tribe, this may be the survival status of all barbarian tribes, they really need to change, a huge change!
After lying quietly on the bed, Bai Feng began to open the attribute table of Rome City to see the changes in the attributes of the Tasia tribe and mercenaries; Bai Feng believed that after such a day, his gift would not be given in vain!
Vassals: Tasya Tribe (Poor)
Region: Barbarian Land
Faction Leader: Gamilios (Junior Great Swordsman)
Population: 12,394
Force Strength: 1029 warriors (including apprentice swordsman and above)
Force Loyalty: 85 (up to 100)
It turns out that Bai Feng's two gifts were not in vain, and the loyalty of the entire Tasia tribe to Rome City jumped from 70% to 85%, which is a real ally and a trustworthy vassal for Rome City!
Compared with his hopes for the Tasya tribe, Bai Feng does not have too high expectations for the loyalty of the mercenaries, after all, Bai Feng has not done anything recently to make the mercenaries increase their loyalty; Bai Feng just wants to see if the loyalty of the mercenaries will increase with the loyalty of the Tasya tribe, but after really clicking on it, Bai Feng is completely confused.
Number of mercenaries: 500 fighters
Mercenary Name: Tasya Warrior (500)
Mercenary Leader: Gatus (Tasya Warrior, High High Swordsman)
Source of mercenaries: Dependent tribes (Tasya warriors)
Mercenary Loyalty: Tasya Warrior (100)
The five hundred mercenary warriors of the Tasya tribe commanded by Gatus had reached the highest level of loyalty to the city of Rome at a maximum of one hundred! How could this be? Could it be that there was something wrong with the system?
It's not that Bai Feng doesn't want to believe the data that appears in front of him, but this kind of data is really weird; obviously he hasn't done anything, why does the loyalty of the mercenary soldiers under Gatus's command reach the highest value? Bai Feng is really too puzzled.
After determining that it was impossible for the system to go wrong, Bai Feng put aside what he had done that day from beginning to end, and finally set his goal on the temple;
In this case, Bai Feng had to face another problem, that is, would it be rare for him to really build a temple of gods for Gatus and the others in Rome? This is not a trivial matter, after all, the Temple of Apollo is the only temple in Rome City.
However, this matter is not necessarily a bad thing for the city of Rome, you must know that the temple of the gods built by the druids is a temple that all the barbarian tribes believe in the whole barbarian land; after the city of Rome has such a temple of the gods, it will be of great benefit to recruit and absorb the barbarian tribes in the future, I hope there will be no moths on the side of the temple of Apollo!
Of course, even if Bai Feng built a temple of gods for Gatus and others, it was impossible for him to really use the statue with the power of faith obtained from the temple of gods, he would only use the silver statue cast by Rome City itself, which was also a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
On the one hand, it will not delay Bai Feng from using those gods with the power of faith to prolong the life of the high priest of Binglan, and on the other hand, it can also make Gatus and the others more grateful to themselves and the city of Rome, you must know that the silver god statue is much more brilliant than the wooden god statue!
