Probably because of the fact that they will be sent to the gladiator school to become gladiators, the work assigned by the two is not too heavy, and Zhang Heng has not yet been able to feel the cruel oppression of the 2 evil slave society.
After finishing the work at hand, the supervisors did not reappear, and assigned them new jobs, as if they had forgotten them, so Zhang Heng and Varo, the two unconscious new slaves, as it should be by rights of the fish.
Zhang Heng took the initiative to communicate with Varo and wanted to get as much useful information as possible from the other party. After all, his knowledge of ancient Rome was limited to some well-known historical figures and historical events, while Varo and ordinary slaves Differently, before he became a slave, he was a serious Roman citizen and a businessman. He was very informed, and unlike his burly figure, his people were very kind. At the same time, he probably felt some things just now. He owes a question, and he basically has to answer questions.
Considering the current situation of the two people, Zhang Heng first asked Varo and slave about things, because from Varo’s previous words, it can be heard that although the slave is at the bottom of Roman society, the difference in fate between different slaves also seems to be Pretty big.
“This is of course.” Varo explained patiently, “For example, staying in the city is usually much better than selling to the country, because the city is relatively richer, the living conditions of the slave will be better, and some nobles We need to consider our face and show our kindness. Most people will not squeeze slaves too much. Your job is basically to take care of the host and host, do cleaning and so on, and do not do much work, but the country can It’s miserable. “
Varo licked his slightly dry lips, and then said, “It was sold to the country, either farming or mining, food and living conditions are not good, because the host there will try to make you work more Don’t care about your living conditions, the more you do, the less you eat, the more they earn, and the women who are slaves are more miserable, and may be required to have children without stopping. Every child is born, it is a sum of money, no matter Whether you keep your work or sell it is a good choice. “
“What about the investment you said?” Zhang Heng asked again.
“Oh, this is the best destiny for slaves like me who have a certain talent. You can ask the owner to invest a sum of money and open the store yourself. As long as you can bring continuous income to the owner, your status will naturally increase. High, no longer need to serve the host like other efforts, and if you are lucky, you will eventually be free, because in order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the slave, many hosts will set an amount, and after earning so much money, you will become a Roman citizen again. “
“It sounds good,” Zhang Heng said.
Varo hesitated, and then added a sentence, “In fact, the gladiator … is barely a way out. If you can pass the assessment to become a gladiator, your status will be higher than that of the ordinary slave, and if you can You can be free if you win a certain number of games in the arena, but that’s too difficult. Many people who have been on the battlefield with great fighting skills can’t live that day, let alone us, by the way, where are you from, I have n’t seen you look like this before. “
“I’m from the Great Han Empire in the East.” Zhang Heng said.
He is not a lie. In the 2nd century AD, it was almost the Eastern Han Dynasty in history. At that time, the Han Dynasty and the Roman Empire were the two most powerful super empires in the world. The villagers in Ergan are very keen to discuss the topic of who can win the battle between the Han Dynasty and Rome, and they are constantly torn.
Unfortunately, until now, although China has unearthed such things as the Roman Cup, the archaeological community has never had a unified answer to whether there was contact between Rome and the Han dynasty, let alone a fight. Who will win this kind of thing, but in turn, the more the topic that can be lined up in the void, the longer it lasts, because no one can convince anyone on either side.
Sure enough, Varo was a bit dazed to hear the Great Han Empire, and did not know where, “Then why did you come to Rome and become a slave?”
“I wanted to see what was on the west side, so I prepared a trip, but when I got to Persia, I met a robber, and then I was sold to slave traffickers, and finally moved to Rome.” Zhang Heng casually edited a book that was not easy to be Uncovered lies.
“Then you are too unfortunate, my Oriental friend.” Varo mourned for Zhang Heng for 3 seconds. In his view, Zhang Heng’s temperament and modern people’s well-maintained skin all prove Zhang Heng in what he said is Great Han Empire is a noble, and it is estimated to be an aristocrat with unusual status.
As a result, this guy didn’t know what kind of wind was in his brain, and he lived a good life of the depraved and ruling class. However, he had to pursue any poetry and a distant place. Now that he is okay, he plunges into the arms of a robber, not only from a noble to a slave, I will never go back to my hometown, and it seems that I have to lose my life in Rome.
However, Varo had n’t sighed for Zhang Heng for a few seconds, remembering his tragic encounter was not much better, so his emotions were down again, but with this connection, he felt that his relationship with Zhang Heng was closer. One thing is, two people originally had a good life, but the result of a sudden disaster was a slave. In this respect, they have a common language.
Varo couldn’t even help patting his chest and said, “You can rest assured that if I restore my freedom in the future, I will earn you money to redeem you from the arena and return you to your hometown.”
“Then many thanks.” Zhang Heng said politely, not paying much attention to Varo’s promise.
Now that he knows that slave is at the bottom of Roman society, he will definitely not always be a slave. Fortunately, although Rome is in the stage of slave society, society is not that absolutely does not have mobility. According to Varo ’s view, slave is It is possible to obtain the status of Roman citizen through hard work, even higher than the status of foreigners, and similarly civilians can also be mixed into nobles. Of course, the difficulty factor of this matter is definitely more difficult than that of slaves.
Zhang Heng doesn’t need to consider that many at this stage, he just needs to get rid of the slave’s identity first.
The two then chatted for a while until they had dinner.
In all fairness, dinner is pretty good. The richness is definitely not comparable to that of later generations. Except for beans, it is porridge paste, but the rare thing is that there are meat and crabs in the porridge paste.
But Varo was not happy when he saw this, and whispered to Zhang Heng, “It seems that they really intend to let us enter Gladiator School.”
