Chapter 137: Solon
Hearing Solon's words, Su Ye was stunned
I didn't expect to be able to experience one of the greatest innovations in the history of Athens and even all of Greece.
If we say, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle and Euclid represent the highest peaks in the field of ancient Greek philosophy.
Solon, Pisistratus, Cleisthenes, and Pericles, then, represent the highest peak of Athenian government.
Solon, on the other hand, was the head of the four.
Socrates is not the father of Athens, Plato is not, and Aristotle is not.
Solon counts.
It was only after Solon that ancient Athens entered a period of rapid growth and became a truly powerful city-state.
Su Ye thought that in Athens, where the aristocracy covered the sky with one hand, there would be no Solon-like figures, but he didn't expect that it would still appear.
Listening to Solon's voice, Keldon's speculation, Niedern's instructions, and Plato's battle, everything became clear.
It turned out that where the Athenians could not see, many people had already joined together to prepare for today.
Master Plato was supposed to be the hub of the whole thing, and Solon was the representative who came to the forefront.
"This Master Solon doesn't seem to be very famous, I remember him as a Sanctuary mage." Su Ye thought about it for a long time, but he didn't remember the specific deeds about Solon.
In the past, Su Ye didn't know anything about it, but now Su Ye is devoted to the course and rarely cares about other knowledge.
Even if there is not much knowledge about the plane of divine power, because the knowledge of the plane is located at the spire of the tower of advanced magic knowledge, second only to the knowledge of the gods, Su Ye flipped through a few esoteric books and found that he couldn't understand it at all, involving a lot of unlearned knowledge, and he could only read some of the most superficial.
"Get into my carriage and we'll talk as we go." Fast Road.
"Good!" As soon as Su Ye saw that Mist was going and his safety was absolutely fine, he decided to witness a rally that could affect all of humanity.
Fast's carriage was a military carriage, larger than the usual one, and Kelton cheekily followed, and Nedel glanced at his carriage and boarded Fast's carriage as well.
Huck thought about it, knew that his identity was not suitable for getting into the car, and he had an idea, grabbed the armrest, and stood outside the car door, like a guard in an emergency.
In fact, they eavesdropped on the conversation inside.
After getting into the carriage, the crowd listened to Solon's speech.
Su Ye sent a magic letter to Nedern, saying that the Violet Restaurant had been obtained and that it was decided to transfer it to the Pandeon family.
After a while, Nedion wrote back, saying that Pandeon accepted the shares, but he didn't want to take advantage of it, and would send someone to Su Ye's house tonight to send 10,000 golden eagles.
Another 10,000 golden eagles came in.
The carriage moved smoothly, Su Ye wanted to know the details of Solon's deeds, and the three of Fast helped explain Solon's life.
Only then did Su Ye know that this Solon had a richer experience than Solon on the Blue Star.
Solon was born into a down-and-out aristocracy, and at first he wanted to revive his family business and use all means to improve his status, but he ran into a wall in a row and was played as a monkey by the real nobles.
In the end, Solon, who didn't know what he had experienced, cut off contact with the nobles and devoted himself to the study of magic.
After reaching the pinnacle of the Golden Mage, Solon, like all people at the Golden Pinnacle rank, chose to travel the world.
Solon's experience was far more exciting than that of ordinary mages, having been a slave in Persia, nearly freezing to death in Northern Europe, mummified in Egypt, and even traveled to several planes, such as Titans, Dragons, Mountains and Seas, and even the most mysterious of all, Hades and Hell.
Solon wrote a book about his experiences, which sold well.
Solon returned to Athens three years ago, and as a noble Sanctuary mage, he continued to manage himself, eventually becoming a force to be reckoned with in the city of Athens.
Finally, Fast glanced at everyone in the carriage and muttered, "Everyone is your own person, you will know sooner or later, or even know some of it, so I don't have to hide it." As far as I know, there was a mysterious organization in Athens, or among the human race, whose purpose was unknown, and even the name of that organization was unknown. But one thing is for sure, that organization is helping humanity, and that masters like Plato and Solon, as well as some celebrities, have joined that organization. ”
"Today's Battle of Legends and the Acropolis Cry should be the first time this organization has acted in the city of Athens. In fact, people of a slight position in the city of Athens have a vague feeling, especially those of us who ...... People who don't like the old aristocracy very much have not only discovered it, but even secretly helped this organization. It was thanks to our help that the nobles found out late and hurriedly struck. Obviously, the ultimate victor was Master Plato. ”
"The God of War Palace held a meeting because of this matter, and it was completely closed. Not surprisingly, it will be discussed for at least an hour, and the nobles who really dare to stop and can stop Solon are all in the Palace of the God of War. So, this hour was enough for Solon to finish his sentence. Solon's appearance means that this organization should show its strength. My view is that we should wait and see what happens, and don't take sides too quickly. ”
The crowd in the carriage nodded.
Then, Solon's voice rang out again.
This time, Solon began to criticize the nobility in extremely harsh language.
Along the way, from time to time, people shouted loud cheers for Solon.
Athens has two famous avenues, both named after Athena.
One is the Panathenaeum Boulevard, located above the Acropolis, and the people of Athens walk through the Panathenaeum Boulevard every major festival.
Because the Acropolis was dedicated to the temple, it was difficult for even the nobles to go there, so the large square outside the Acropolis Gate became the most common meeting place for the people of Athens, and was also known as the Municipal Square.
The name was originally ironic, because it was the nobles who were really in power, and very few nobles talked about it here, and most of the people here were commoners, and it was useless to say more, and they all laughed at themselves as the demigod king of the street god mountain and the square.
From Lion Harbor to the front of the Acropolis Hill, there is also an avenue, which is called Athena Avenue, in order to avoid confusion with the Pan-Athenaeum Avenue, most of them are called the Avenue of Wisdom.
The Avenue of Wisdom connects Athena's docks, slums, commoners, workshops, and nobles, and is the only road where slaves walk on it without being searched by the guards.
After the carriage turned to the Wisdom Avenue, the speed dropped suddenly.
The avenue is full of torches and magic lamps, and countless Athenians are illuminated by the fire and lights to the Acropolis Gate.
The people in the carriage listened to Solon's words and discussed in low voices.
The carriage went all the way, and Solon said all the way, and never stopped.
"You say, Solon, will they succeed?" Keldon suddenly asked heavy questions during a break in the chat, and everyone seemed to be weighed down by a huge mountain, bowing their heads slightly, and no one answered.
"Something will change, but it's hard to predict what it will look like in the end." Su Ye Dao.
"Tell me what you think." Fast is authentic with interest.
Su Ye thought for a while and said, "My opinion may not be correct enough, maybe someone has already put forward the same opinion, if there is a mistake, don't laugh at it." ”
