"Serrari?" Chen Xi began to think about whether he had heard of this person, and later found that his Roman history was not very good during this period of time, whether it was the Five Sages Emperor in the past or the Dark Third Century in the future, it was estimated that he could still know a lot of people.

However, whether he knew it or not, Chen Xi still returned the salute with a calm expression, after all, the exchange of courtesies was the consistent attention of the Han Dynasty.

Listening to what Serrali was talking about, Chen Xi said that he could only hear a few words, and there was no way that the Indo-European-Germanic language family was changing for thousands of years, but fortunately, the Roman era was the era that began to be stereotyped, so he could barely understand a few words.

"Uh, what does it mean to bite the silk hard?" Chen Xi looked at the other party's changing expression and said.

I don't understand other words, silk, porcelain, these words have not changed much for thousands of years, calling the Central Plains people Celis people is not the meaning of silk people, and there is no change in calling China porcelain, of course, it is also a meaning to call tea later.

After listening to An Yue's translation, Chen Xi finally understood what Celis meant, and first sincerely expressed his admiration for the Han Dynasty, thinking that this was an empire as great as Rome, and then turned to silk, culture, wisdom, law, and civilization were all skipped......

"Oh, your country is in great need of silk, and I hope that we can give this treasure to our friends from afar, so that we can form an alliance of life and death?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes and asked, who gave you the silk production method has a problem with his brain.

"Yes, for this reason, after the two sides formed a life-and-death alliance, we Rome are also willing to donate 500 boxes of gold coins, and give 200,000 gold coins to the Han Dynasty every year, I hope that you who are also nobles can understand the feelings of the Roman nobles for silk." Serari said sincerely.

Chen Xi rolled his eyes, as if this was a very casual thing. Five hundred boxes of gold coins, exchanged for standard boxes, that is, a box of ten thousand gold coins, five million gold coins sounds like a lot, whether you can buy five hundred cars of silk in Rome is a question.

I really thought that Chen Xi didn't know about the "Battle of Silk", and he fought with another empire for more than 20 years for the toll of silk. In the end, the toll was not suppressed, and a roll of silk was finally settled according to the gemstone......

It seems that the silk of ancient Rome has not yet reached its highest point in this era, almost the same as gold, and then silk has risen all the way, and I remember that in the third dark century of Rome, that is, a few years later, the weight of silk was exchanged for gold and reached 1:135.

After that, Sassanid Persia, which had strength, was completely shameless, and the price of Roman silk finally rose to two hundred and forty-seven gold coins for a pound of silk, of course, this is not the most important thing. On top of that, this was the official pricing of the Roman Emperor Diocletian.

A mere 5 million gold coins can only buy 20,000 pounds of silk, which is equivalent to 18 tons of the current unit, and sure enough, 500 carts of silk is a fantasy......

So this seemingly sincere price, in fact, is completely wiped off the face and put in the pocket, even if the price of Roman silk and gold is only one to one, the Romans don't have the face to say that, but also mention technology, you want to die rhythm?

"I deeply understand Rome's desire for silk. However, my family doesn't care about this, but I can recommend you to go to the Mi family. Zhen family talk, as a nobleman, I understand your mood, and I like it too. Chen Xi didn't turn his face at all, but smiled.

The translator on the other side translated truthfully, and Serari was overjoyed when he heard it. Immediately took out a box from the carriage behind him, and opened it to see a cut gemstone placed inside, reflecting the brilliant light.

"Thank you for your guidance, this gem is a gift for you." Serari said excitedly, Chen Xi's light face. Obviously, this was not a difficult task, and this led Serari to see the possibility of obtaining silk, which was so important for Rome.

[Sure enough, only by communicating with the nobles can you get more information, especially the high nobles, and the high nobles must have the same status in their mouths. Serari thought excitedly, as if the silk had already arrived.

Chen Xi accepted it unceremoniously, this thing can only be given to Chen Yun, there are no three, and whoever else is given it will be unhappy.

"You're welcome, I just heard that there are envoys from the distant Great Qin, so I came to take a look." Chen Xi leaned over and said, "I have something to leave now, please forgive me for being rude." ”

An said that he translated truthfully, the other party felt pity for Chen Xi's departure, but he did not stop him, and Chen Xi was smiling away from the Roman envoys, his face suddenly became gloomy, and Rome wanted to take advantage of him and actually took advantage of him.

"Let's go, just this one." As soon as Chen Xi turned his head, he turned into a shop, this is a special shop, it is the kind of shop that collects prohibited goods and buys news, only the shopkeeper who sits on the table, and there are not many items to buy and sell.

"Dangdang!" Chen Xi knocked on the table a few times with an expressionless face, and the shopkeeper didn't raise his head, "We only sell news here, of course, we also buy all kinds of materials, but we can ...... all the hot materials here."

It was at this time that the shopkeeper couldn't say any more, and he saw who was across from him.

"That's how you do business?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows and said dissatisfiedly.

"Subordinate convicted!" The shopkeeper hurriedly bowed back and said.

"Forget it, I won't pursue your problem, let me take a look at the account books." Chen Xi stretched out his hand to ask for the account book, and the other party immediately asked Chen Xi to enter, and then handed Chen Xi a thick stack of account books, Chen Xi quickly calculated it, and then put it aside.

Chen Xi doesn't have much time to calculate these things, he can only roughly calculate the monthly inflow and out, even if it is a fake account, the monthly increase and decrease can still be seen, not long after the implementation of this new account, the fake account has not yet been practiced.

"There's a certain amount of growth every month, so it's up to you." Chen Xi said casually, since the income is increasing, and the increase is still obvious, then Chen Xi doesn't need to ask for these things too much.

The shopkeeper obviously wiped his cold sweat, with an expression as if he had been pardoned.

"Notify the major families, let them manage the silk industry under their names, and the farmers who raise silkworms should also manage it well, if someone steals it, take it directly, and do not pass on the technology of raising silkworms and drawing silk." Chen Xi stared at the shopkeeper and said.

The reason why the order is given here is very simple, the shops here are all from major families, don't look at it as a merchant, but in fact, they are all families wearing vests, so if you give an order here, you will soon be able to receive it from all major families.

As for the official, Wang Xuan will go back to the official, and Liu Bei will give an order, so that the official and the people will do their own things, and the Romans will dream of a full set of techniques for raising silkworms and silk! (To be continued.) )

PS: Every time I look at this history, I feel that the Romans are too obsessed with silk, and a pound of silk, which is 0.9 kilograms, was officially priced at 247 gold coins when Diocletian did......
