Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

The road surface of the block was filled and tamped, the sewers were dug on both sides, and the road was widened, enough for two carriages to drive side by side, walking on the road, with a sense of solidity that was not there before.And the houses in the block are gradually being demolished (the reason why the houses here are demolished with great fanfare is because the civilians living in Lavin Court are basically assigned to residences near the city center. This urban area except the Diana Temple, It's basically empty, so it's easy to renovate.) After cleaning these gravel tiles, the houses here will be planned and built, and there will be no more crowded and mixed scenes before.

Stolo’s eyes swept across this unrecognizable block, looking at the renewed road, and he couldn’t help feeling: the Romans’ slums in the west of the city were tortured for 10 years. Every year, the senate has many debates about transforming it, but 10 In the past year, it has not changed at all, but under the rule of the Dionysians, it completely changed it within a month. Although they took advantage of some wars, they have to say that Dionysian Human determination and execution are indeed very strong, and they really want to improve the lives of the Romans...

Reminiscent of what Maienas said, it seems that Stolo’s heart is no longer so tangled, walking through the ghetto, he saw some people gathered in front of the arena, most of them were Dioni Asian citizens, and a small number of Romans, are busy under the command of two white-robed priests.

Stolo knows what they are busy with. It is said that the birthday of the Greek goddess Hades, the patron saint of the Kingdom of Dionysia and the law and underworld, is about to arrive. Hold a grand celebration for him.

Ten days ago, the Roman Chief Executive Asistos announced that Rome would also hold Hades celebrations. Stolo did not feel much about it. Rome was a city that believed in many gods, and the foreign gods did not Less, Etruscan, Sabine, Walsey... There are even many new ones.But this incident not only cheered the newly-arrived Dionyan citizens in Rome, but also received a positive response from the Temple of Diana and many Roman civilians, which was somewhat strange.

However, after a detailed analysis by Stolo, I think this is also reasonable: as far as he knows, after the Hades priest came to Rome, he treated the Roman civilians with gentleness and friendliness, often consulting them for free, and actively taking care of life People in difficulty provide help... Therefore, although the Temple of Hades has not been built in the city of Rome, there is only a simple altar of Hades, but more and more people go to worship him, so when I heard Ha The Dis celebration is about to be held, and these Roman people are also very active.

According to the announcement issued by the City Hall, on the day of the celebration, not only did the believers solemnly sacrifice Hades, but according to tradition, they also gave some kingdom slaves who usually performed well free, and more importantly, they joined Dior in this war. The Roman soldiers who died on the Niya side, their names will be engraved on the stone, and they will be enshrined in the Temple of Hades. Their souls will be blessed by Pluto... These practices naturally gained the majority of the Roman people and slaves. Great concern.

Not to mention the rugby game after the celebration: according to the announcement, each of Rome’s Demos must send a team to participate, in addition to the towns directly controlled by Dionia, such as Vie, Gabi, Fiendena... , Will send a team to participate, can imagine that it will be a grand game.Although most of the participants were Dionysian citizens who moved to the Latium area, there were also some Roman civilians who liked the novelty and excitement to join, so these few days are lively on Mars Square, and the rugby teams formed in the Roma De Mo districts There is active training.

To be honest, even Stolo is a little bit emotional, and he wants to come to the arena to watch the game, and want to see how this rugby sport that is popular in the Kingdom of Dionysia will be in the official game?

Storo stood in the distance, watching the group of people work together to erect a tall statue in front of the entrance of the arena, and then began to fix the base.

The statue was a man with thick black hair and an extremely strong body. He held a rugby ball in his hand and made a throwing action. The gold foil attached to his body shone in the sunlight.

Is this the Hades that the Dionyans believe in?!Despite his curiosity, Storlow didn't look closely. He squinted for a while and turned to leave.

Going further, the street becomes a little crowded, because most of the traffic goes to pack cars, the east is full of wheat that has just been harvested and has basically been shelled, and the south is full. Holding a bag of flour.

Arriving in September, the farmland is harvested. The Roman people who have joined the Kingdom of Dionysia, according to the previous agreement with the city hall, they harvested the wheat in their newly allocated plots, handed over the harvested 23, and the rest was reserved for own use (Because of the previous occupation of Rome by the Dionysian army, these farmland are logically trophies of the army, but Yasistus considered to win the popular support of the Romans and stabilize the order. At the same time, in order to reduce the city hall’s The Roman people who belonged to the kingdom made food and material assistance. This decision was made after careful consideration, so as to ensure that the Roman people can not only be self-sufficient in food before the next harvest, but also save a cost of wheat seeds. This proposal was approved by Daveus), these Roman civilians not only can obtain all the harvest of their original fields (if he had a field), but also get this extra income, which is naturally overjoyed, and they are even more eager After that, the fertile land was completely his own, and he only had to pay very little land tax every year, so these days, Rome and the nearby towns occupied by Dionysia were shrouded in the joy of harvest.

Within a few days, the city hall surprised the Roman civilians again, and the announcement posted clearly told them: The city hall was funded, and several water mills designed and built by the engineers of Dionysia were stepped up day and night. It has been completed and it is possible to grind flour for Dionysian citizens for free.

In fact, making water mills is far less time-consuming and laborious than what the announcement says: the materials are ready-made, so many siege equipments were scrapped after attacking the city of Rome; engineers and carpenters are also ready-made, and Daves brought more than 500 people The team of engineers, this does not include the engineering battalions of the various legions; the technology is readily available. The water mill was developed by the dean of Mathematics of the College of Mathematics at the Dionysian Academy more than 10 years ago, and has become a Common public large-scale facilities in the cities of the Kingdom; all that is needed is whether the administrative officials can take these into consideration for the people in a timely manner. Not only did Assis take it into consideration, but they immediately embarked on the implementation, and finally rushed to the end of the harvest and completed it. Construction of water mill.

Asistes has served as the chief executive of many cities in the Kingdom. He knows the people's feelings and knows that although the harvest is joyful, grinding wheat flour for the hulling of wheat is a time-consuming and laborious task.

Before the water mill appeared, the Greek people used stone to grind flour. The thick stone rollers must be pulled by horses or donkeys. In order to prevent wind and rain or birds from pecking, they must also be carried out in a more closed hut. And also need to send someone to look after.The "creaking" sound from the uninterrupted friction between the stone rollers and the stone mills can not only be unbearable for a long time, but also the livestock. They will refuse to work, and sometimes they will go crazy, causing injuries. So for the slaves of large households, guarding the mill is the biggest punishment.Therefore, Yasisters believed that the introduction of the water mill would make the Roman people more deeply recognize the Kingdom of Dionia.

What is water mill?When the Roman people saw this announcement for the first time, they were surprised. After all, Rome is an inland city-state, mainly based on agriculture, and the commerce is not well developed. In the past, there was little contact with the Dionysian kingdom in the south, while the civilians were outside. The world knows less, and it is normal to know that this new invention, which has been widely welcomed by the people of southern Italy.

However, since the Dionysians came to Rome, they gradually won the trust of Roman civilians through a series of practical actions, so many Romans really drove the cart full of wheat valleys to the riverside of Mars Square (Dio The engineers of Niah inspected the section of the river near the city of Rome and found that the Tiber River on the island of Tiberina due to the diversion of the river core island, the water flow is faster and can better promote the water mill, so several water mills were built Here), they were pleasantly surprised to find that this magical device can turn round and round, which not only can grind the noodles, but also has high efficiency, and the quality of the ground flour is also good, no need to stay there for care, There is no need to worry about the animals being exhausted, so soon the tens of tens and tens of hundreds are passed. The Roman people in the city either carry a burden or rush in a cart. They line up every day on the Mars Square River, just like Same now.

The people who have just returned from the riverside of Mars Square are loudly shouting the magic of the water mill to those who are going to rush off, and even some people even open the noodle bag to let the other party look at his labor results, making those people even more impatient. Want to rush to the river.

Hearing these civilians sigh from time to time: "No wonder Dionia is so powerful, even the tools to polish the surface can be designed so magically! ..." All of them look like Rong, and Stolot's heart burst for a while. Sorrow: I'm afraid it won't be long before the Rome that nurtured them will be completely forgotten by them!

Stolo speeded up his return home and came to the hills of Silio. He was in a better mood again, because people kept saying hello to him: "Stolo, I came back so early today!"
