“Where is the thing?”

Brian turned to look at the gold ornaments on counter 4.

There is nothing special, nothing more than a variety of appearances.

“Lord Brian, please follow me!”

The owner ushered Brian to a small room.

Finally, in the small room, a horse of cloth was taken out, which should be a horse of silk to be exact.

Seeing silk, Brian’s eyes lit up instantly.

You know, silk, ancient Rome was not produced.

Only the other end of the continent, the other civilization center of this world, the Han Empire will produce.

“How did you get it?”

Brian said as he stroked the silk.

It was quite difficult for the Han Empire to get here.

In 121 BC, Huo Qubing, a famous general, defeated the Xiongnu and occupied the Hexi Corridor, providing the possibility for exchanges between the two great empires of the East and the West.

In 106 BC, Li Guangli, a famous general of the Han Dynasty, launched the Tianma War, defeated the Great Famous Kingdom, and submitted to 36 countries in the Western Regions along the way.

The Han Dynasty set up a governor’s office in the Western Regions, and the eastern half of the Silk Road was basically completed.

It is now 91 BC.

Unexpectedly, after more than ten years, I saw things from the Han Dynasty here.

“It’s a merchant from the East who changed hands to me!”

The shop owner said smugly.

Because of that sense of mystery, he maintains that unique superiority.

“Your line is pretty good! Han Empire, Kushan Empire, Parthia and Greece! ”

Brian directly named the important countries and regions along the Silk Roads.

The shop owner looked at Brian with a surprised expression.

“Lord Brian, how do you know this?”

I know that this route (the Silk Road) is very secretive and few people know about it.

“This is taught by teachers in aristocratic schools!”

Ahem

Brian coughed lightly, and unscrupulously pushed the problem to the teacher of the noble school of the Roman Republic.

“It turns out that the noble school still teaches this kind of knowledge!”

The shopkeeper said thoughtfully that although he was quite wealthy, he was just an ordinary Roman citizen.

And Scarlett, who was standing behind Brian, was very clear about some of Brian’s habits of staying with people during this time.

For example, every time you speak, there will be a unique change in facial expression.

Apparently he lied just now.

But Scarlett couldn’t find where to say.

After all, he also did not attend aristocratic schools, and it is not certain that nobles learned this geographical knowledge.

“So how much does that cost? I want it all.”

This kind of good stuff, Brian may leave to others.

“This Lord Brian, we are all acquaintances!”

The shop owner looked at it, then rubbed his hands and said.

“10 times the quality of gold!”

Speaking of which, otherwise his cheeks twitched obviously.

It has long been known that after the opening of the Silk Road, the price of silk was very expensive.

I just didn’t expect it to be so ridiculously expensive.

A pound of silk requires 10 pounds of gold to replace.

Brian’s expression was not very big.

But Scarlett behind him obviously had a rich change in expression.

It was also the first time she had seen something so expensive.

“Okay, I bought it!”

This horse of silk weighs up to 10 pounds.

All you need is 100 pounds of gold.

Brian just won 10 tarrants, and that’s no problem.

1 Roman pound = 330 grams.

1 tarrant = 33 kg.

100 Roman pounds = 1 tarrant.

That is, a horse of silk costs 1 tarrant of gold.

The Silk Road had just opened, and this rarity was ridiculously expensive.

“No problem”

“What are you buying such an expensive cloth for!”

Red Earl Scarlett reminded Brian from the side.

Never has cloth been worth 1 tarrant.

“This is not ordinary cloth, this is silk, from the other side of the world!”

Otherwise, you can pick up this batch of silk and slowly open it.

“See, if you use this to make you a gauze dress, it should look very good!”

Almost instantly, Scarlett was attracted by the unique texture and lightness of silk.

“God Jupiter is on top. There is such a perfect thing in the world! ”

After gently stroking, he said with a happy face.

Meanwhile, Bryan Ze was lost in thought.

If he could produce silk in Rome, it would have been absolutely violent.

When silk was transported from the Han Dynasty to Rome, its price increased by a hundredfold.

Thinking of this, Brian directly opened the system exchange bar.

Silk production technology – 100,000 points

I couldn’t help but gasp.

Really! Something as profitable as this is certainly worth a lot.

It seems that it is difficult to earn points alone.

Have the opportunity to get a random exchange voucher and try your luck.

“Okay, I’ll send someone to give you the gold when I turn back, now let’s go first!”

Brian turned to the shop owner and said.

Ten Tallet’s gold was 33 kilograms, and Brian couldn’t have carried it with him.

In addition, although Brian is a scum of the city of Rome, his reputation is very good.

The promised things will be done.

And he used to buy things here a lot, and the shop owner also trusted him very much.

“Waiting for Lord Brian to come again!”

The shop owner knows, otherwise he will definitely send someone to send gold in the afternoon.

And at this moment, a discordant voice came.

“If I’m not mistaken, what he has in his hand should be a special sackcloth from the Eastern Empire!”

Brian turned his head to see a young noblewoman in her early 30s, her eyes staring straight at the silk in his hand. _
