Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

In the city of Amendola, Heraclede has also been there to help a family build a courtyard. During this period of time, the name Amendola Lala frequently appeared in the mouth of the free people in the port of Turui: the mercenaries who annihilated the Lukania tribes and won the name of Hehewei became all citizens of Amendola, their chiefs. Davers even became a consul, they will also become slaves with their slaves, and it is said that they will be given citizenship in the future... These days with the resumption of trade with Amendola, Amendola A lot of things that have happened recently in the Tula have been circulated among the people of Tuli, where there are some magical things that the people at the bottom of Tuli have never dared to think about but are extremely eager for! The free life of the free people and even the slaves in Turic City is like being thrown into a big fish that is alive and kicking, and the muddy sand that has been deposited under the calm water for many years has been smashed...

This makes Heraclede, who has a long history, can't help but be moved: Since it is the invitation of Amendola, their promise should be no problem. !

So Heraclede eagerly asked: "Can I bring my son?! His talent in architecture is no worse than me!"

"of course can."

In the envious eyes of the others, he and his son rushed to pack their bags, and then the man came to Amendola, and saw Alexis. His first words made Heraclede feel excited: "I It is the supervising officer of Alexis, Amendola Lara, responsible for the construction, maintenance and supervision of all the city-state buildings. The supervisory official has no public office in other Greek city-states, and it can be seen that Amendola Lama attaches importance to the construction of the city. As long as you have the talent in this area, it will be reused by us!"

Feeling that Amendo Lara attaches importance to the construction of the project, Heraclede’s old heart has begun to ignite the enthusiasm for construction in his youth.

The first task Heraclede received was to design and build warehouses and hotels, which was not difficult for him, and his plan was quickly adopted in the Senate. Then he and his son led a dozen craftsmen, and nearly a thousand Lucania slaves began construction under the city of Amendola.

Don't look at Heracledo, who is a thin old man with a lot of energy and meticulous work. Every day, I continually wander around the various construction sites, supervise the construction speed, check the quality of the project, and find that the completion is severely criticized. If the operation is not correct, it will be corrected immediately, and even if it is demonstration, if the measurement is biased, the retest will be immediately returned until it is accurate. And the slave is respectful and afraid of this old man.

Today, Alexis found Heracled, handed him a sandpaper roll and said: "This is the next construction task, building a ferry from the Cinna River to the city of Amendola, then to Sarace. You should make preparations for the road at the Nuohe Ferry. The Archon General asks the road to build the road in the drawings he painted."

"Your governor knows everything!" Heraclede couldn't help but say that as a craftsman who has been engaged in construction for many years, he has his persistence and pride. His most disgusting is that ignorant people are pointing fingers.

"You first look at the drawings of the Archon's adults." Alexis reminded him.

The ignorant person is the only lifelong ruler of Amendola! It is directly related to whether he and his son can become key figures in city-state citizens! Heraclede suddenly remembered, and was shocked by a cold sweat. After decades of hardships, he bent his waist and thought: As long as the design of the consul is not too outrageous, if you modify it a little, just do what he wants. .

At this moment, survival defeated Qing Gao.

He unfolded the sandpaper roll and swept his careless eyes. Who knows this, the eyes are like being stuck, and they can't pull out.

Alexis saw him look serious, smiled, and got up and looked around: the dust was flying on the construction site, the craftsmen and slaves were in full swing, and they didn't come for two days. The whole site had a big change...

This made him feel excited: "Can you finish this work in half a year?!"

"Half-year?! It only takes four months to be enough! If those Lucanias can be smarter, three months is enough!" Heraclead said without raising her head.

"It seems that you are not satisfied with these slaves." Alexis smiled.

"They don't understand the construction at all. I don't know how much it costs me. The blind man said dumb. I am not satisfied. Can you give me a batch?" Heraclede complained.

"You know this is impossible."

"However, the Lucanias are not as terrible as I imagined, maybe they are more afraid of you, so they are so obedient!" Heraclede lamented that the people who experienced the war know what is most important in the troubled times. Guarantee.

"These Lucanians are not afraid of us, mainly the method of Davers adults!" Alexis exclaimed.

When he mentioned Daves, Heraclede’s gaze turned back to the drawing, pointing to the pattern on the paper, and said seriously: “The Architect’s paintings have more road construction drawings, which are much more complicated than the usual roads. But when you think about it, it makes a lot of sense. First, tamping the dirt road, then laying a layer of silt, then laying a layer of gravel on the sand, and finally laying a slate with tight slabs, and digging both sides of the road. There is a ditch, and an anti-soil wall is built outside the ditch... It can be imagined that if such a road is built, it can not only be waterproof and sand-proof, but the road itself is strong and tough. The car loaded with the cargo is not easy to damage it. I used to I have never seen such a road. It is a great design! If this is the idea of ​​your governor, then he can be said to be a great road architect!" This time, Heraclede is telling the truth.

Alexis has been numb to the fact that Deavers has repeatedly created miracles. Since Heraclede approved the drawing, he was relieved, so he said: "So, you agree to follow the steps on the drawing to build the road. Hey."

"Of course! I also want to see what the road is built soon!" said the wrinkled old man excitedly. But then he pointed to a piece of paper, and asked: "We all know that the mortar used for construction is made of limestone mixed with water and added to the sand. But the drawings emphasize the mortar used to splicing the slab gap. Not only do you use limestone to add water to the sand, but you also need to add a certain amount of volcanic ash. The governor called this mortar... called water... mud, does it really work?"

"Citizens of Amendola Lara know that the Archon Daves is the patron of Hades. This must be the enlightenment that Pluto has given him. I believe that after you have tried it, you will understand the magic of this kind of thing." Alexis said solemnly.

"You are right, don't try to know how to know it!" Heraclede came to the interest: "I remember that there are many volcanoes on the island of Sicily and its nearby islands. Legend has it that in ancient times it was the sculpture of the **** of fire Hephaestus. Where the weapons of the gods are, we can send a boat to pull a boat of volcanic ash back, it should not cost much."

"Herlaclide!" Alexis suddenly became serious: "According to the performance of you and your son before, Daphus proposed a motion, approved by the Amendrara Senate, you and Little Herakley Germany has become a reserve citizen of the city of Amendola. During the two-year study period, if you perform well and continue to contribute to Amendola, then you will be a formal citizen of Amendola, congratulations!"

Heracleda glanced, he squirmed with dry lips, but could not speak. In the blink of an eye, turbid tears.

Alexis was touched by him, and his tone became softer: "As a reserve citizen of Amendola, you must know that the Archon Dafus repeatedly swears at me. 'The cement is made in Amendola. The highest secret of the city-state! 'Besides you and your son know, you must not tell others. If there is a leak, the Senate will send an ombudsman to hold you accountable and may punish you. I hope that you can come up with a solution. To use it, you have to protect its secret!"

Heraclede immediately became nervous, and he hurriedly put the drawings into his arms...

The 18-year-old Arcinis is the second time to participate in the training of the military camp ~www.readwn.com~ As a young adult, he is also the second time in the life to participate in military training. In the past, he only learned to hold shields and waved stab guns under the guidance of his father. He was not learning words at other times, or he was exercising in the arena with other small partners. Since the war between Turui and the Lucanias, his life has changed dramatically: his father died in the battlefield, his mother died while in custody, and 18-year-old Arcinius inherited his family.

According to the City-State Military Service Act issued after Daves served as the lifelong governor: adult city-state citizens must participate in military camp training every six days during the busy season, and after the autumn harvest, the slack time before the spring broadcast is changed to three Once a day. Alcinis couldn't wait to learn the skills so that he could ride the battlefield as soon as possible and defeat the Lukarias to avenge their parents. But in the first training, it was beyond his good imagination of the military camp. In addition to the fun of the rugby game taught by the Archon's adults at the last moment, the other time is not only hard and heavy, but also boring.

The second training was still the same as last time: the new recruits first wore the Corinthian helmet, put on the linen breastplate, put on the bronze armor, armed with a round shield gun, waist-shouldered knife, fully armed walk for five kilometers, walked Slow, I still have to lick the instructor's stick. Last time, he saw several free-agent recruits being beaten by the instructors, even though the equipment was nearly forty pounds, but the innate inheritance and acquired training made Alcinis not feel too burdened. .
