Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Cornelus is now clear: Davers is going to redo the political structure of a new Amendola. In the case that Davers has taken control of Amendola and controls the Senate, the only thing Cornelus can do is nod.

The appointment of the two men naturally passed.

"Executive ... politician adults, before the materials we seized from the Lucanias have been cleaned, the treasury of Amendola Lara has only more than 3,000 drachma..." Melsis reminded.

"Hey, just started, I started working, and the enthusiasm of this public official is too high!" Epiphanis said jokingly, everyone laughed.

"Three thousand silver coins are not even connected to one tower..." Daves frowned and muttered to himself.

Cornelus felt a fever on his face. He explained: "Corneiros has no port, and there are not many businessmen coming to the city for trade. The stone mine we excavated, many city-states, only Herakly Asia will buy some from us every year..."

“It seems that there is a need to set up a business officer who is responsible for managing trade and thinking about making money for Amendola Lado,” Daves said.

Melssi’s eyes brightened and he immediately said, “I recommend Mariji as the business officer!”

"Oh, are you doing a good relationship with him now?" Daphus had some surprises.

In fact, it was not that Melsis improved the relationship with Maliji, but that Mercys would not be able to pass the money, because Marji did make money, which is very clear to Melsis.

"Although Mariji is a Persian, his business ability is really strong. He used to do well in the market next to our military camp!" Oliver shouted in the back row.

"I also agree that he is a commercial officer. I have been to that market and it is really lively." Then Epiphanis said.

"Olivers has taken a fancy to the daughters of others and wants to take the opportunity to please the future father-in-law." Matones also came to make fun of it and uncover Oliver.

"Shut up, big guy!" Oliver hurried.

"Quiet! The Senate is a sacred place, not a sly place! Whoever talks again, then rushes out!" Daphus glanced at the two: a good proposal, was stirred up by the two men, I am afraid of causing others to think.

Matonis and Olivers quickly snorted.

"This Mariji is a Persian?" asked Cornelus doubts.

"It used to be, but later, because of the persecution of the Persian king, I took the whole family to rely on us, and we went to Persia with us, and came to the Great Greece together to participate in the battle with the Lucanias, one of our mercenary fighters. So, he is now a citizen of our Amendora. I have sent him to Tarantum this morning to discuss the alliance. He is indeed a very talented person! I believe that he is a business officer. There will be a noticeable increase in the gold and silver of our national treasury!" Davers praised Mariji.

Cornelus listened carefully. He was hesitant about this proposal by Daves. He took a few eyes on Rafaas. That means: Does your new household registration official have no opinion? Don't let me come forward to object to anything!

Raphias hesitated and stood up and said, "But he is a Persian...the Greek city-state has never been-"

"What happened to the Persians! As long as he is sincerely willing to be our citizen and has made so many achievements for us, we should accept him!" Daphus suddenly stood up and faced everyone in the venue. Say loudly: "I have some words that I would like to wait until the right time, but since the household registration officer has already mentioned this sensitive issue, I will talk to you about some of my views."

“Everyone knows that in almost all Greek city-states, citizenship is hard to obtain. The richer and stronger the city-state, the harder it is to get. For example, Sparta, it is almost impossible for outsiders to obtain citizenship; in Athens, the current regulations Yes, 'only the parents are Athenians, and the children can become Athens citizens when they are adults.' Why is citizenship so difficult to obtain?” Daphus raised the question loudly, and the people sitting at the meeting were silent for a short time, especially The new citizens, who remembered the great risks they suffered from the sweat and blood they had paid for this citizenship, Daves’ words resonated with them.

"That is because they are afraid that outsiders will share with them the political rights, land, and wealth of the city-state!" Alexis said with a hate.

"Yes! This selfishness of the Greek city-states made them refuse to join the outsiders, and at the same time gave up the opportunity to strengthen themselves! Athens was devastated after the fiasco in Sicily, why? Because they do not have enough young and middle-aged citizens. Sparta, even if it now dominates Greece, but it is mainly mercenaries and allies sent to fight outside, why? Because their citizens are only about 3,500 people, they must also prevent the domestic black riots, the war-loving Sparta Citizens will only fight more and less, and eventually lose the hegemony of Greece. Then look at our neighbor Turily, after the defeat of the Lukania coalition, knowing that we defeated the Lucanias, but cautiously I don’t even dare to open the door. Why? There are not enough young citizens. I am afraid that I can’t resist it and we rushed in and robbed it.”

Everyone laughed, and the same was true of the old citizens. On the question of Turui, everyone has the same understanding.

"And then look at the Persia that we have been to, the territory of Persia is not big?" Davers asked.

"Big, too big!" The new citizens answered in unison.

"How many Persians are there?"

"More! People of all races have it!"

"Be aware that Persia was only a small tribe at first, and it was bullied by the Medes. The tribe's leader, Cyrus, was very intelligent and open-minded. He was friendly with the surrounding tribes and generously accepted other tribes. The races of the Medes who had been dominated by the Mesopotamian plains had turned to him, and even the enemies of the Midi had surrendered to Persia. Persian snowballs on the top of the mountain were getting bigger and bigger, only for decades. A small tribe has become a big empire..."

Everyone listened carefully to Davis's history of Persia, including the well-educated Cornelus. They also knew very little about Persian, the great power of the East. They also listened with gusto.

"Why is the Persian Empire strong? It is because it tolerates the acceptance of other tribes as nationals, just as the Mediterranean is so large because countless rivers flow into it." Daphus's words made everyone immersed in contemplation.

"Like what I said before~www.novelmtl.com~ If you are only satisfied with farming in a small city state every day, until other city-states and powers are strong, lead the army to the city, surrender and become its vassal, Then I will not say more. If you are not satisfied with today's ordinary, want to make Amendo Lala more powerful, no longer bullied by other forces, then remember, people will always be the greatest wealth of a city-state! We Amen Dora is not as closed as other city-states! We must be open, we must sincerely accept everyone who is willing to join Amendola and is willing to contribute to the prosperity of Amendola, no matter where he comes from. Only then Our strength will grow and strengthen rapidly! Perhaps you will say that Amendo Lara does not have so much land and wealth to share with them, because your eyes are only staring at the small land of Amendola! ”

Davers looked at everyone, his left hand powerfully pointed to the West, and said with pride and affection: "Look at us, there are Lucanias, Brutus in the west, Mesapi, Petchi, and the east. Nepalese, I heard that there are also Samonets in the north...and so many indigenous people, are they not enough to share the land and wealth?!!"

"Beat them, take their land!..." The team leaders headed by Matonis were excited and shouted, and other new citizens were mostly excited because this was the first time their leader Daves They showed his great ambitions. For the former mercenaries who had broadened their horizons in Persia, after meeting the basic needs of becoming a city-state citizen, Davers gave them a more ambitious ambition to make these The grazing, grazing, and farm work have not been cultivated, and the mercenaries who are accustomed to the battle of the sand field have immediately gained new impetus and regarded it as the goal of lifelong struggle. It has also become the greatest support force for Davers to consolidate its power.
