The Romans felt that it was normal that they could not accept it. Silk and gold were equivalent to the price set by the Persians. It seemed that the price of the King of Yan was very generous, and even 100,000 prisoners could be said to be a gift. It was simply possessed by Jingluo, but you have to see how much satin silk he brought, 30,000 satin.

One kilogram of satin is two kilograms. This is the weight of sixty tons. Two hundred thousand ounces. The current Roman gold coins weigh four grams, which means Sima Ji requires 15 million Roman gold coins. After a 60% discount, it is nine million Roman gold coins and more than thirty tons of gold.

If Roman Persia fought a war, even the capital of the Persian Empire was taken, and the compensation involved was only one million gold coins. Although the Roman Empire used gold as its currency, later generations estimated that the gold coins circulated by the Roman Empire were about 180 tons to 240 tons. This means that Sima Ji wanted one-sixth to one-eighth of the gold circulation of the Roman Empire when he opened his mouth. This amount was actually a lot. The middle-class countries in later generations were not enough to buy silk unless they were old imperialist countries like Britain, France and Germany, and the treasury gold of Ukraine and Romania.

This is not a question of how much gold there is in the treasury of the Roman Empire, but the proportion of gold stored in the entire Roman Empire territory. The 60% discount for the King of Yan was almost the same as the non-discount. It is still an astronomical figure that the Romans felt numb when they thought about it.

Goodes obviously did not use a wine bag, but just a rough calculation, he felt that Sima Ji, the enemy commander, was simply too cruel, and it almost killed the Roman Empire.

"Do you know what kind of number this is?" Goodes's mouth trembled as he spoke. If Egypt was not in the hands of the other party, the lives of 100,000 Roman soldiers were in the hands of the other party, and the lives of the two Caesars were in the hands of the other party. The Syrian governor would have almost left, but he could not.

"I only know that the silk and gold sold to you by the Persians are at the same price." Sima Ji turned his eyelids and felt that he had been a little too much. He said slowly, "You can also make up for it with one to ten silver. This is the greatest sincerity that I have shown. Your Roman Empire uses gold as currency, so it should be very wealthy. Could it be that the Western powers have the strength?"

"In this way, as respect for Caesar, I can release two Caesars and leave, and then kill 100,000 Roman soldiers and return home. As for you and Christian affairs, I will not care about it. If the governor feels that this is acceptable, then what can I not accept?"

After Sima Ji finished speaking, he had to pat his butt and leave. If he couldn't get gold, the lives of the Roman soldiers were naturally worthless. The King of Yan had thought about how to explain the people of the Roman Empire. The other party was so incomprehensible? Then what else? Compared with gold, his purpose of going out was achieved. Tens of thousands of Jin soldiers understood that the world was vast, and they knew that there were great powers in the West, and had a basic understanding of the world.

The purpose of cultivating talents has been achieved, and the fruit and vegetable seeds collected are an invisible wealth, which can be taken back to eliminate many crops that Sima Ji had heard of. Although the classics in the Alexander Library are a large number of ordinary existences, he has copied all the most important mathematical and geometric books, completing the shortcomings that exist for many civilizations.

With all the above goals achieved, gold is of course a very precious thing, but it is nothing to get the best, and it is not enough to get it. After all, the soldiers of the entire army have also received a lot of rewards after all, and the specific amount of the soldiers of the Yan King did not know.

"Wait, I'm just a governor, I have to report this matter to Augustus." Goodes couldn't help but feel anxious when he saw Sima Ji's indifferent look, and quickly spoke, "Only Augustus can decide on this matter."

"Yes, but Christians have tooth-eyed hatred towards Roman soldiers. I am an outsider and it is not convenient to interfere with it." Sima Ji spoke moranically. This was not threatening the other party, but just revealing the truth.

As someone escorted the Syrian governor to leave on the ship, Sima Ji continued to go back and accepted the gifts for tribute. Most of them were not valuable things, and gold and gems were only a few, but this made Sima Ji wonder if it was not discounted and could it be sold to tribes from Ethiopia and Sudan?

"Why tell the Romans that the local indigenous people in the Sultan of Ethiopia are rich? No? In this way, the Rome route will conflict with our Great Jin, and the Roman Empire cannot do it." Sima Ji finally found a job of national integration of the Roman Empire and did not do it well. Once the expansion is too large, it will cause internal collapse and restrain his inner impulse.

In the evening on the Nile River, bonfires were lit, and the banquet lasted for two hours. Countless cattle and sheep were inserted on wooden stakes, like a meat forest, with fine wines coming from tribute filled the surrounding seats. In the venue, a group of cool-dressed black people were dancing unknown tribal dances.

There was a burst of laughter around him from time to time. Ataya snuggled beside Sima Ji, leaning her head against the man's shoulder, looking very comfortable. Looking at the Jin general who was laughing happily and cried, she showed a faint smile and said, "There are such dark people living in the world."

"I have it in the south of the Great Jin Dynasty, but it will be gone in a few decades." Sima Ji laughed and hugged Xiao Maomei, shouting loudly, "All the generals accompany me to drink this cup."

"Respect the King of Yan, respect the little lady." The generals shouted in unison. The reason why there is a scene in the wine pool and the meat forest today was entirely due to the little lady's contribution. The fact of negotiations with the Romans made the little lady feel bad. The king of Yan thought of this method. Of course, according to the King of Yan, it was completely discussed in front of the students about the corruption measures in the wine pool and meat forest. This was a big banquet with a critical attitude. The things were paid by others, and it was useless to eat them.

"Damn!" Sima Ji raised his glass, turned around and clinked a glass with Ataya sitting beside him, drank it all in front of the soldiers, pretending to be serious, "The Confucian scholar put the cause of the decline of the country on women, which is a saying of evading responsibility. Today, I will set up a wine pool and meat forest. In the future, I will expand the territory and follow today's banquet, wine pool and meat forest. Everything needed will be tribute to the losers."

"Let the losers pay tribute!" The generals stared at each other, pulled out their swords and shouted, and their nature was rarely revealed this year, and they all showed their crazy attitudes.

Sima Ji laughed and pulled Ataya up. He still remembered that later generations answered questions on the Internet. If he could go back to ancient times, he could take as many people as he could. Who would you choose to take back? Among his answers were Mei Xi, Daji, Bao Si, Li Ji, and among the rest, Heshen was the pillars of the people.

"Let me find a few Roman prisoners to come out to dance and cheer up. If you refuse, kill me, and make the little lady happy." Sima Ji had no idea about the southeast, southwest and northwest in Ataya's encouraging eyes.

The Roman legion soldiers who had swept the Slavs before were dancing in front of their eyes, and Ataya's eyes were very happy and whispered in Sima Ji's ear.

"Do you still know the Colosseum?" Sima Ji's face was a big surprise, but when he saw Mao Mei's longing gaze, he could only give in, "Just this time, I have never seen it before. I think I should really see the world. It happened that a southern tribe paid tribute to the lion, and I will meet your request, which can be regarded as one reward for one reward."

"Ataya serves her husband well tonight." Attaya hugged Sima Ji's neck and kissed her heavily.
