Chapter 535 536. Aspasia

After listening to Forbes' rather proud narration, Phidias couldn't help but nodded frequently.

In today's world full of myths and legends, it is quite attractive to occasionally listen to the gossip in the market.

La En poured cold water on Fu Bai.

"After you become the leader of this group of waifs, you have to find some long-term work for them. It is better not to do things like stealing sailors, otherwise the people in charge of port management will not be able to tolerate you. Those sailors come ashore There are taxes on prostitutes and gambling, but you don't."

Fauber seems to have never thought about this problem. After all, she is just a little girl who came out of Kefalonia. At present, she seems to be a little hard-working girl with outstanding social skills.

Then, what should we do?

Fu Bai even put down the bread and fish soup, and asked Lan En anxiously, waving his head.

Why are you so nervous? Lan En said matter-of-factly. "This is very simple for you."

"Um?"

Fauber showed a puzzled expression.

The same goes for Phidias next to him.

He is not even a local in Athens, so he doesn't know how a group of street children can easily find work that can provide them with food.

"You may not have noticed yet, Fubo. You and the dozen or so children you have entangled with are already an organized group. For this reason alone, you are better than many people."

"You can summon a dozen children. Although most of them have little strength, they can still do many things that require manpower, are impossible to do alone, or are very troublesome."

"How many people do you think those small businessmen who set up stalls in the market can call for help by shouting with all their strength? Five or six would be a lot. The first gangster I beat down when I came to Athens, Its hard to say if there are not thirty of them in total.

The number of people you can unite is your advantage, Fu Bai.

Lan En spread his hands and said easily.

Also, do you remember what I told you?

What is that? The Waif Intelligence Team?

Fubai thought drowsily.

When you become famous, there will be people who understand how valuable intelligence is and come to you. Just wait and see.

"That's what you want to say." Fu Bai tilted his head and thought for a while, as if he suddenly remembered something.

"Today, there was a person who greeted me after seeing our actions. He said that if he was free, he could go to her."

She jumped off the Adrestia lightly, and another man who looked to be in his forties or fifties, but in good spirits, wearing a hood and shawl, was walking down from the wooden planks protruding from the ship.

That was Herodotus, an old acquaintance of Barnabas.

When he and Cassandra and his party were going to meet the Oracle, they met on the road lined up and had a pleasant conversation.

With his wonderful experience and extensive knowledge, he was able to be hosted by Cassandra and returned to Athens together.

Yes, back to.

Because Herodotus was also serving as Pericles's staff at this time.

The road to Athens from here is already very different from when Lan En first arrived.

Kassandra looked towards the direction of the Acropolis just like when the witcher first arrived.

On this two-mile road, there has always been only one promenade facing the sea, like an arm stretching out from the city, tightly holding the nearest coast below and the pier there.

Masons and slaves gathered here, placing the last stones on the two strange walls erected on both sides of the walk. The chisels in their hands were tapping rhythmically with the work at hand.

Come, mercenary. Herodotus walked along the trail, beckoning Kassandra to follow him.

The two walked along the trail, and the long wall beside the road cast a pleasant shade for them.

There was an old beggar there, muttering to anyone who would listen: "Shouldn't the Trojans, the Hittites, and the Assyrians be a lesson to us? Great walls will surely attract powerful destroyers." "

This statement is not new.

Kassandra thought to herself.

At the same time, she noticed how crude the walls beside the walkway were.

This wall was basically built in a hurry. The quality is very poor and the materials used are also very poor. They are just paving stones, gravel, and the remains of beams and columns.

Putting it in the same picture as the temple and acropolis in the distance is a bit unsightly.

This is the Long Wall. I discussed this plan with Pericles when I left Athens. It seems that there has been considerable progress now.

Herodotus introduced to Cassandra.

It is ugly indeed, but as a stopgap it is quite good. The Spartans are not good at sieges, and this wall will protect the Athenian harbor from threats.

"Are you saying this is a strategy you and Pericles came up with?" Kassandra said thoughtfully, "What's the glory in this approach?"

Glory? Ha, you are indeed a Spartan. Herodotus smiled.
