CHAPTER XVI

"Your Lord! Please wait a moment! Publius quickly ran in front of Yang Ye, at this time Yang Ye was about to get on the horse, and when he saw Publius, he stopped his movements and looked at Publius and said curiously: "Publius, do you have anything wrong?" ”

"My lord, I spent a day yesterday to roughly check the entire administrative affairs, and the entire government affairs can be said to be a mess! This is a complete irresponsible performance of Rome! Publius said solemnly, and after hearing Publius's words, Yang Ye wiped a handful of sweat in his heart and said, "Is there any problem?" ”

"What's the problem?!" Publius's voice grew louder and louder, "Lord Lord! Not to mention the lack of lower management of the entire city of Rome, the accountants, the construction officers, the magistrates, and the procurators. "As soon as I mentioned this, Publius couldn't help but groan, why did I agree to be a governor so happily......www.biquge.info You should think about it.

And Yang Ye's face turned red when he heard Publius's words, when he was managing Rome, he directly pushed everything to Christian and the butler, and he didn't take care of it at all; "That...... O Publius, the appointment of officials will be left to you, and I am sure that the people you appoint will be better able to carry out your orders. Yang Ye still spoke.

Hearing Yang Ye's words, Publius immediately said, "Don't worry, Lord Lord, I will manage Rome well." "Well, I believe you Publius, I'll go first if it's okay." Yang Ye immediately said after hearing Publius's promise, and then quickly turned over and got on the horse, Yang Ye now just wants to leave here immediately, Publius's words have almost made Yang Ye embarrassed, and Yang Ye feels that Publius still has something to say.

It's a pity that Publius still stopped him, "Lord Lord, please wait a minute" Hearing Publius's words, Yang Ye's heart began to groan, and sure enough, this is the case! Although the moans in his heart continued, Yang Ye still spoke: "Is there anything else going on with Publius?" ”

Publius's hand thought and waved, "It's okay, sir, I just need you to bring something." Seeing Publius's movements, Yang Ye looked in the direction of Publius waving his hand, and saw that more than a dozen Roman youth soldiers were carrying 6 boxes towards him, Yang Ye pointed to those boxes curiously and said, "What's in there?" Publius. ”

"Lord Yu, the gold, silver, and jewels you captured in the last battle, and these are for you to sell." Hearing Publius's words, Yang Ye frowned and said, "Is the Publius territory short of money now?" I remember that last time I seized a lot of gold coins, even if I didn't withdraw this part, there were still a lot, right? Why sell these? ”

Hearing Yang Ye's question, Publius replied: "My lord, the value of the loot you captured in the battle last time was about 12w gold coins, but in addition to the 2.6w gold coins, these trophies need to be sold before they can be exchanged for gold coins, and this 2.6w gold coin will only be about 1.5w gold coins left in addition to the travel expenses and inheritance taxes that you need to go to the emperor." This amount of gold was only enough to cover the upfront expenses of the construction of Rome. ”

Hearing Publius's answer, Yang Ye felt that the whole person was not good, you must know that at that time, he was having a headache for the inheritance tax of 1w gold coins! Now Publius actually told him that 1.5w gold coins are only enough for the early expenses! Yang Ye's first reaction now is that Publius is corrupting, but Yang Ye hasn't seen Publius have an introduction to corruption in Publius's specialty.

So Yang Ye said: "Publius, what do you want to develop, and you need to spend so many gold coins?" You must know that gold coins are very valuable! Hearing Yang Ye's question, Publius asked rhetorically, "Lord Lord, I remember that those barbarians are in the 100,000 Great Mountains, right?" "yes, that's right." Although it was strange why Publius's question was answered, Yang Ye still gave an affirmative answer.

"Which lord, you robbed their raiding team, won't the barbarians retaliate when they know about it?" Publius asked, and when he heard Publius' question, Yang Ye reacted that it was the matter of the raiding team, so he said, "Is that their coming to rob me?" It's just that their skills are not as good as others, who is to blame for losing! "After saying that, Yang Ye felt wrong, Ma Dan's! I have taken the wealth of the looting team! They don't come to me! As soon as he thought of this, Yang Ye instantly felt that the whole world was full of malice.

Seeing Yang Ye's reaction, Publius continued: "Since those barbarians will come to retaliate, then we need to build fortifications, so I plan to build a city wall where you fought last time, Lord Lord, to respond to the barbarians' counterattack, However, the cost of building the city wall is about 8000 gold, and we also need to defend against attacks that may come from other directions in the city of Rome, and we can't station all our troops in the canyon, so we need to build a gallop road to the canyon, which costs about 3000 gold, and in addition to the serious shortage of troops in Rome City, we need to recruit more soldiers, and the cost of recruiting soldiers in the early stage will cost about 4000 gold, so that the 1.5w gold you have left behind will be spent, not to mention the cost in the city of Rome. ”

Hearing Publius's words, this made Yang Ye wipe his sweat silently, he originally thought that he was already a master, but he didn't expect that a loser would come, although it was all for legitimate reasons.

Although the heartache gold coins flowed out of his pocket like this, Yang Ye still knew that the money should be spent, so he said: "Publius, you tell me all the expenses, I have a good idea of how many gold coins I need." ”

Hearing Yang Ye's words, Publius quickly reported a series of data: "Report to the lord, build the city wall, it takes about 1.2w gold coins to gallop, and in addition to recruiting soldiers, a total of 4w gold coins are required to build a Roman city......" After hearing the data reported by Publius, Yang Ye felt that his head was about to explode, and hurriedly stopped and asked Publius: "Publius, how many soldiers are you recruiting, do you need more than 3w gold coins?" ”

After hearing Yang Ye's question, Publius explained: "Lord Lord, the current citizens of Rome are about 6w people, but the defense force of the entire Rome is only more than 800 people (the battle casualties have not been replenished), it can be said that the whole city is on the verge of danger, so I plan to recruit a legion of youth soldiers as a defense, but because everyone is in a new world now, there is no money to bring their own equipment, so we need to pay for these equipment." ”

After hearing Publius's explanation, Yang Ye said scoundrelly: "Forget it, I don't want to know what other plans you have, tell me how many gold coins you need in total." "Yang Ye is afraid that if he talks to Publius, he will have a heart attack." 16w Gold Coins! Publius replied briefly.

"Boom!" Suddenly, there was a sound of a heavy object hitting the ground, and I heard "Oh no! The lord has fainted! The voice kept coming from the lord's mansion......
