v6 Chapter 19: Pelican's persuasion

Although the bathhouse is a bit crowded because there are too many people, it is not boring, because in addition to the thick and tall stone walls around, there is no roof in the bathing area, which is conducive to the circulation of air. Some people even like to take a bath when it rains.

Polluxis looked at the crowded baths in front of him. Some envious said: "It is estimated that there will be five or six thousand people coming to take a bath here, and Davers has made a lot of money!"

"Who did you call the Archon when you raised money?" Enanilus smacked him, then plucked Bolton, took off his shoes, handed it to the slave, stepped on the smooth marble floor, strode forward. Hot spring pool.

Polksis hurried to keep up.

En Anilus slowly sat in the pool water, and the appropriate water temperature made him feel comfortable. He took the spring water and completely wet his face.

The people who kept moving around in front of them blocked people's sights, and no one would notice that the two veterans were sitting naked among them.

En Anilus closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the pool, seemingly sleeping, letting Polluxs swallow a few times.

After a dozen minutes of hot spring pool, En Anilus came to a small pool next to it, the water was not deep, and the bottom of the pool was sea sand. The other small pool is covered with pebbles, and the bottom of a small pool is paved with river mud.

En Anilus simply lay down directly, rubbing his back with soft sand... and soaked for more than ten minutes until the skin was reddened, he just went out of the pool and called a bathing slave to massage himself. whole body.

After another ten minutes, En Anilus climbed up and let the slave pay the massage fee. He dragged the soft body and staggered into a corner of no one, sitting on the bench by the window wall. On, close your eyes and rest.

Polluxs came to him and sat down, stretched out and said: "It’s really comfortable to take a hot spring bath! Don’t say that the bathhouse built by Daves really brings a lot to the Turifs. Big benefits! Why didn’t we think of doing this before? It’s a gods!”

En Anilus slowly opened his eyes and glanced at him. He slowly said: "Since you all know the greatness of Davers, you often take the lead in opposing the Senate. Polickis, I remember you didn't have So daring!"

Seeing that En Anilus finally talked to himself, Polluxes sighed with relief, but said with aggrieved: "Of course I know that without Davers, the Dionysian Union will not have today's status. I also want to follow Davers to do something, but he simply doesn't give me a chance! He only values ​​his mercenaries who only speak with their fists, so that they don't know what they are in! Those more savage barbarians, with an unpleasant smell, sitting in the Senate every day, yelling at the Greeks who can't understand, and the Amendola Lara that was once driven by us. Every day, the so-called 'original citizen' badge is worn, deliberately showing off in front of us... and we are the true masters of Turui, but now we can only stand by in the Senate! I, Orpheus, Masisicus... It’s just a cloak of the veteran, and it’s just for the Turifs. It’s no different from ordinary citizens!...”

En Anilus glanced around, no one noticed the difference between the two in the crowded baths. He screamed: "You are too excited, whisper! Pollux, you just haven't got the wheel yet. Maybe next year, you can be the chief executive of a city."

Polluxis sneered: "En Anilus, you don't have to comfort me, even you don't believe what you said. You think, a Persian can sit in this important position of a business officer. For many years, I didn’t need to rotate and choose. Is it my ability to be worse than him? I also served as the 'Ten Generals’ of Turui many times. Even because I was idle in the Senate, I was sometimes Dave. Sipa went to help the aliens and was driven by him! Is the Dionysian Union still the place where we really live in the real old Turui?!"

En Anilus opened his mouth and did not speak.

"Of course you might say, 'You and Burkes, Ansitanos, and Plesinus are heavily reused by the Senate.'" Poluces sneered: "How can Plesinus compare with us!" He is nothing more than a civilian. Now he is a dog of Daves. Davers uses him to let him bite. And Ansitanos puts all his thoughts on the book he wants to write, about other things. No matter what, in fact, he does not have any power. But Burkes has always served as a farmer, but dealing with farmers and slaves every day, can return to the city of Turi several times a month?! Sometimes even important meetings of the Senate can not participate It’s a veteran, I’m more like an ordinary league public official. As for you, En Anilus, you have the power of the navy, just—"

Polixis said here, deliberately paused.

En Anilus turned his head and looked casually and asked: "What is it?"

Poluces chuckled and said: "Daveus has allowed the Gentiles to build a shipyard in Turui in the past few years, breaking your family's monopoly on shipbuilding. I don't know what you think?"

En Anilus jumped and said slowly: "That is because... The territory of Dionya is too wide, and more warships are needed to protect our shores, and my family... can’t produce so much in a short time. Battleship..."

"Oh, you really think about the league!" Polluxes said sarcastically, looking at him sharply: "Unfortunately Daves does not seem to thank you. For him to let his second wife's family I have more battleships than yours. What do you think of this?"

En Anilus was silent, and the hot red skin of the hot springs covered the shackles on his face. He was very clear: due to the monopoly of his own shipbuilding in recent years, the slack in management caused the completed warships to appear many times. Quality issues. To this end, Davers also talked to him several times, so that the Senate passed the bill that Daves proposed to "allow the merchants of the Allied city states to build a shipyard in Turui"...

"And... for the hero who captured the city of Bisinian, the flag bearer in the triumphant form, and the statue of Seckley in the Hall of the Spirit, in just a few years, an ordinary sailor quickly became you. Under the command of the sub-fleet, I often go to the Dover House. What do you think of this?" The question that Polissis followed immediately made Enanulus look different.

"Davers makes you a naval commander because he has to use you. He doesn't know anyone who knows naval battles. But now he seems to have found it, and it seems to be much more trusting than you! En Anilus, you Do you think that Davers still needs you to be a nobleman who is incompatible with the rude mercenaries of his men?!"

The words of Polixis, like a viper, biting Enanulus, which was somewhat uneasy.

Polluxsis has been watching the face of Ennicus. At this time, he sighed a long sigh: "If we old Turuis do not want to do anything, I am afraid they can only become a visitor in the Senate. Nothing to do to death, not reconciled!"

En Anilus shook his fist and shook his head and said, "Pluxis, you don't understand the power of Davis! Even the sailors of the Dioyan Navy, which I have in charge, are composed of prepared citizens and free men. I see the young man as the real commander, and I am just an executor. Not to mention the soldiers and generals of the Dionysian army -"

"En Anilus, what are you thinking about! I thought I was going to conspiracy to overthrow Daves!" Polluxs interrupted his words and smiled and shook his head: "No! No! No! I am not that stupid!" We must admit...Daves’ great contribution to the Dionysian League Without him, Turui did not exist anymore. We are only going to return to the citizens of Dionia. A little right, while limiting the power of Davers, do not want him to arbitrarily cold and deal with the old people of our Turui!" Polluxes slightly excited to point to the men in the bath, said: "You think they Don't want to attend the citizen conference?! The blood flowing in the Greeks is the passion for politics and political participation. It is only the glory of Dafos that they have forgotten them for a while. As long as people keep reminding them constantly, just like I have been What has been done, then the situation will change a lot! The protests of the urban people such as Turui and Crimea do not indicate that the situation is already changing!... En Anilus, for ourselves And to Daiaoniya Union, you are willing to stick together and I continue to call on 'Citizens Assembly was held' in the Senate, so that a more equitable distribution of rights Daiaoniya it?! "

Listening to Politics's inflammatory speech, Enanilus's face changed indefinitely, and he finally hesitated and said: "But... there are too few veterans who support this proposal in the Senate!"

"In fact, quite a lot, I have already got some people's support..." Polluxs whispered a few words to Enani Lusi.

En Anilus looked shocked: "Really?"

"Just like the last time I told you how to get more land with liberated slaves, when did I fool you!" Polluxs reminded.

En Anilus pinched and pinched his hands and finally became a fist.

....................................

"Respected veterans, I have a proposal." Polluxs stood up in his seat.

Others saw this situation, and suddenly a helpless expression of "coming again."
