Chapter 371: How to be a Patriarch in Dionia
Tyblos understood his thoughts, shook his head and said, "There are no clans in our kingdom of Dionia, and the law says that 'women also have the right to inherit.'" 'When a husband dies, he can inherit all his husband's property if he proves that he has always observed the virtues of women. However, if she marries again, her new husband will not be able to own his wife's property jointly until at least five years have elapsed from the marriage, except in exceptional circumstances.
However, you are the patriarch of the kingdom and do not need to worry about housing. Although there is no longer any surplus vacant land in the inner city, there is still a lot of public land in the outer city hall at the town hall, thanks to the order of His Majesty, after the city was first built, 'The land around the inner city of Turiyi shall be classified as public and shall not be sold.'" How wise it is now!
Later, the Senate issued similar orders to other towns in accordance with this order. At that time, the Yuan Yuan will definitely set aside a piece of residential land in the outer city near the inner city, which will be owned by you free of charge, and will also let the construction department send someone to build your house according to your needs, without you spending an Opol ......"
After hearing this, Publius suddenly felt relaxed, he scraped the beads of sweat from his face with his hand, and said gratefully: "Tybrus, thank you very much for your explanation!" You've taken good care of me all the way from Rome to Turiyi, and no matter how you feel, I've come to see you as my first friend, a true friend, since I joined Dionia! β
"Ah...... I really didn't expect it...... But I am truly honored to be your friend, Lord Publius! Allow me to do that...... I can treat you as a good friend! Tyblos's voice trembled, clearly agitated.
"That's great! When I move to Turiyi, I'll need your help. β
"Lord Publius, if you need my help, please command! I grew up in Turiyi, so I know it well and have a lot of friends. But when you're on your feet in Turiyi, I'll have to ask for your help! β
The two laughed, and suddenly felt a lot closer.
So, Publius asked directly, "Tyblous, what should I do best if I want to gain a foothold in Turiyi as soon as possible?" β
Tybrus pondered for a moment before he said, "Lord Publius, it depends first on what you want. If you want to be comfortable, you don't accept any position, just as a senator, attend the senate meetings on time, express your opinion, vote, and you can receive a lot of money every month.
But I don't think you're such a person, if you want to make a difference, you must first be familiar with our Dionian laws, I know that Rome is also a city-state that values law, but the laws of the kingdom are not only extremely numerous, but also very wide, you understand it, so that you don't make mistakes and become a laughing stock of the people after moving to Turriy, and also let you be able to express your opinions in the Senate with a purpose, so that you don't make mistakes and be laughed at by the senators. β
Publius nodded, and said, "You are right, when I was in Rome, I had borrowed the law book from Assistes and started reading it, but it was not careful enough, and it seems that more effort will have to be put into it. β
"Secondly, you should hire a tutor who will teach you to learn to speak Dionian. You speak Greek very well, but Greek is not the same as Ionian, not only is the pronunciation a little different, but there are many new words in the Ionian language, I believe you have already felt it in your previous contact with us. When you do speak Dionian, the people of Turii will truly accept you. β
Publius nodded earnestly.
Tyblos continued: "You have to take every meeting of the Senate seriously, attend it on time, follow the order of the room, express your opinions actively, and have your own unique opinions, not like some people raise their hands to echo it. Especially when it comes to Rome and some aspect of the Latium region, you have to be proactive and take control of the whole issue, because you are from Rome and you know the place better than they do. And you have to keep in touch with your friends in Rome in your daily life, so that you can take the initiative to raise issues and solve some problems in Rome or Latinum, and in the long run you will be able to represent the interests of Rome or Latins in the Senate and have a certain influence in the kingdom......"
Publius was a little moved by what he said, and nodded frequently.
But Tyblos increased his voice and said: "However, speaking in the Senate, moving your mouth, no matter how much influence you have, you will not be respected by the people, let alone your majesty's attention!" As far as I know, the people His Majesty has summoned to the palace to discuss matters, hold banquets, and visit the door are all ministers who really have real power and have done practical things, so if you want to achieve greater development in the kingdom, you must do practical things. β
"Do the real thing......," Publius muttered in a low voice.
"That's right! In the past, some senators who joined the kingdom like you held their own identities and were unwilling to hold some low- and middle-level kingdom public offices, and always hoped to directly serve as the chief executive of the town, and it seems that they have never been approved by the senate. You have just joined the kingdom and are not familiar with the situation of the kingdom, and your majesty and the senior elders do not know your abilities, and they will not give you important responsibilities, so you should lower your stature and try to take some lower positions first.
It's just that in the city of Turiyi, even for mid- and low-level positions, they are always full and not easy to obtain, but you can go to Bissinia, CastelΓ³n, Amendolara in the Turiyi region...... These places are relatively easy, and they serve as the financial office, commercial office, agricultural office, construction office, and supervision office of these town halls...... When he became familiar with government affairs, he gradually rose to the position of head of a town department, and finally served as an adjutant of town administration.
At this point, you will be able to apply for a new mayor of a town at the Senate meeting, and you will be taken into account if His Majesty is satisfied with your past achievements......"
"Something like this...... How long will it take? β
"It's not like it used to be, it's getting stricter, and it will take about four or five years."
"Four or five years, so long......"
Tyblous sneered and said, "It only takes four or five years to join the kingdom, and it is already very good that he can become the chief executive of the town!" For example, if we pass the examination and become a public servant of the kingdom, even if we work hard for 20 years, as long as we do not become a senator, we will not be able to become the chief executive of the town! But if you want to become a patriarch, alas...... How can it be so easy!
However, I have heard rumours that 'Your Majesty is going to consult with the rotating chairmen to amend the law so that officials who are outstanding and capable, but who are not senators, can also take up this position!' 'I don't think this is a rumor, but this war has added a lot of land and towns to the kingdom, and it is not enough to have only the senator as the governor of the town, not to mention that I have heard that there will be a permanent governor of the kingdom in the future......
"Governor?! β¦β¦β
"This ...... You don't have to hope for the time being, the position of governor must be held by those senior senators who have outstanding political achievements, are very capable, and have made enough meritorious deeds to be trusted by His Majesty, and you will not have a chance until at least ten or twenty years later. β
ββ¦β¦β
After a while, Tibrus saw that there was no response from the other side, and hurriedly asked, "Lord Publius, are you alright?" β
"I ...... It's okay......"
Tybrus listened to his voice weakly, suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "My lord, we have been in the fumigation room for a long time, and we are easy to get dizzy, so we have to get out quickly!" β
As he spoke, Tyblos went over and helped him up, and the two of them seemed to have just been fished out of the water, dripping with sweat all over their bodies, and staggered out of the fumigation room and into another small room.
The temperature was a little cooler, and there was no mist, and there were two wooden beds with a dozen neatly stacked cloth towels, and a shiny copper kettle and several slender and curved stewknives hanging from the walls.
Publius sat on the edge of the bed, recovering and looking around.
Tyblos shouted, "Anyone?!" β
As soon as the words fell, the wooden door on the opposite side was pushed open, and two shirtless slaves entered, bowing respectfully and saying, "Two adults, what are your orders?" β
"You should be waiting here, and check on the fumigation room at any time, in case we faint?" Tyblos criticized.
"My lord, we were waiting in this room, but then we heard you talking loudly inside, so we temporarily retreated to another room. Besides, the bath steward had told us that one of the adults was a Turii, so we thought there should be no problem......" one of the servants quickly defended.
Tyblos's face was slightly red, he was chatting just now, and he almost made a mistake, so he coughed a few times: "Give us a massage." β
Massage? Again, this is a new word that Publius does not understand.
The two servants immediately wiped the sweat off their bodies diligently, then laid them down on the cramped wooden bed and began to massage their backs.
Publius saw the man slap Tyblos repeatedly with his hands, and Tyblous seemed to look very comfortable and enjoyable. But when he was massaged himself, the slave's fingers seemed to have a magical power, and every time he pressed it, he felt a strong feeling of numbness, and he originally wanted to lie down and continue the previous conversation with Tyblos, but now he couldn't help but "Ah! Yes! He couldn't stop talking.
The slave had apparently seen too much of this, and his movements were non-stop, and his strength was undiminished.
