Chapter 142: Development

The atmosphere and emotions were stirred, Zhao Yu began to discuss the next charter with them, the underground party is not easy to do, although the opponent is not smart, but he can't bear to be a more ignorant slave illiterate on his side!

Therefore, Zhao Yu's tone is to be careful and careful, to keep these six slaves in their original posture, first unify the slave ideas in their families in the most rigorous way, and then slowly collect the information of the slaves in the surrounding rich families, and then carry out the action of pulling people after selecting the foolproof target.

"In short, you must be careful at home, and as long as there is the slightest possibility of exposure, you must stop moving and ensure your safety." Zhao Yu advised: "A spark can start a prairie fire, you are all the spark of revolution, each one is precious, don't fall before dawn!" ”

For the first time in their lives, each slave felt his mission, how important he was, and spiritually established a new faith: the struggle for the liberation of all slaves!

After the symposium, Zhao Yu and Fan Bucket moved out a lot of food, the spirit is unified, and the body has to be arrested, how can there be a revolution without a good body!

The slaves had never seen such a battle, snow-white bread, tender roast lamb, stewed pork bones, delicious wine, and all kinds of fruits, and expensive spices, even their masters, so that even their masters had few opportunities to eat them!

"Eat, remember today's meal, and strive for a good meal in the future!" Zhao Yu didn't even forget to motivate him when he ate, this is actually a big killer, this big cake made the slaves cry excitedly, as for whether they can really eat it in the future, Zhao Yu feels that as long as these veterans can survive, they will definitely be able to.

The next thing is naturally to gobble, these poor people almost swallowed their tongues into their stomachs, if Zhao Yu hadn't stopped them, they might have killed a few people!

The rest of the meals were not wasted, Zhao Yu packed them and asked the slaves to take them back to taste the revolutionary teammates who did not come, and deepen their revolutionary friendship with each other. In addition to food, the slaves also brought back 10 gold coins to fund their operations, and occasionally add a meal to ensure that each 'of their own' had enough to eat.

10 gold coins is not much, it's not that Zhao Yu doesn't want to give more, but these honest slaves are too timid, and too much money for them will increase the psychological burden and make them show their feet.

The six slaves quietly walked along the original alley, without the numbness they had when they first arrived, and their eyes were full of fighting spirit, and they would lurk and fight for the revolutionary cause!

Zhao Yu and the rice bucket don't have to pull people in person, but they have another task, that is, to gather some weapons and equipment, and they can't let the slaves rebel with stones.

Rome is a good country, unlike ancient China, the control of weapons has always been very strict, in the early days of the Roman Republic, Roman soldiers were equipped with their own equipment, and later the country unified equipment, soldiers also became a profession.

By this time period, the blacksmith shop had become a kind of shop, making less money from building agricultural tools and more from weapons, and merchants were seeking profits, so it was not difficult to buy a small number of weapons.

The difficult thing is that the price of weapons is not low, iron has just come to the stage in this period, the price is not cheap, coupled with the scarcity of blacksmiths, the long working hours, the price of a good weapon is very high, the price of armor is even higher, sometimes more than the price of a slave, the blacksmith who can build armor is a high-paying profession and respected.

There is also the issue of identity, slaves are forbidden to buy weapons, so Lord Pippi Shrimp has to appear again.

On the grounds that he was going to enter the slave gladiatorial industry, Lord Pi Phi Shrimp ordered a weapon set from more than a dozen blacksmith shops that could equip a total of 200 people, including iron hoop hardwood shields, one-handed swords, spears, leather armor inlaid with iron plates and iron rings, as well as a large number of small axes and short throwing spears, but the bow and arrow were not built, unless this weapon was a trained slave gladiator, ordinary people basically would not use it, or flying axes and spears were easier to master and form combat effectiveness.

Because of the scattered order, this batch of weapons did not attract the attention of others, but in a short period of time this volume also reached the limit, and the delivery time had to be delayed until two months later.

This batch of weapons cost a total of 3,500 gold coins, and Zhao Yu paid a deposit of 1,000 first, and then gave the rest of the money after delivery.

After the weapons and equipment were ready, Zhao Yu began to buy grain little by little, and every day he was transported out of the city by the rice bucket with the dung bucket, and hid in a hole in the mountains and forests, this cave was originally the territory of a grizzly bear, and it entered the belly of the rice bucket a year ago, and the location was very hidden.

Everything is on the right track, Zhao Yu started to be an otaku again, exercising in the stable, two months have passed in a hurry, Zhao Yu's progress is great, his physical fitness has gone further, his strength and agility have increased a little each, Zhao Yu estimates that when he comes to the Carthage gladiatorial competition, he can be a little stronger, and the sense of crisis has dissipated a lot.

"Zhao, I'm back!" As soon as Zhao Yu finished the morning's training, the rice bucket drove the carriage into the stable, and he had just returned from transporting food.

"Did you go out and get in touch with Friday?" Zhao Yu asked, Friday was the black slave among the six slaves, and Zhao Yu only remembered his name.

"Once contacted, they will assign personnel to help carry the weapons and ensure that the weapons can be transported smoothly into the hiding place."

Zhao Yu bought a few small houses during this time to hide weapons, two hundred sets of weapons is not a small amount, and it is not possible to store them without a place.

"The order for the next batch of weapons has also been placed, just waiting for Valki's payment to arrive, this fat goods won't really run away, right?" Zhao Yu said to himself, Valki is more than a week late from the agreed time, and he will have no money to open the pot if he doesn't come.

"Don't worry, I've already called someone to keep an eye on you, as soon as Valki appears, I'll notify you immediately." Rice Bucket said confidently.

During this time, the underground party developed rapidly, and the first two weeks were very slow, but as the slaves became more and more proficient in business, and were brainwashed more and more times by Zhao Yu, the slaves who joined exploded.

This is also inevitable, because of the rule of the tyrant Commodus, ordinary people have a much more difficult life, the slaves are more oppressed, there is an unreliable master of the slave, almost all of them want to rebel, there is a chance to have an organization, many people fight!

Up to now, there are more than 40 party members, and there are hundreds of probationary party members, and almost every rich family in Xicheng District, where Senatia's family is located, has an underground party.

Every official party member has to go through Zhao Yu's assessment, and the assessment method is also very simple, just like the current political trial, first ask about the family background, why did you become a slave, and then ask what unfair treatment you have received, the worse you pass, the higher the likely it is, and finally the IQ can not be too low, otherwise it will expose the existence of the party, and at least you must have a certain political consciousness, and you are willing to work hard for the cause of liberation (survival)!
