v6 Chapter 48： Southern visitors

As for the west, it is the sea and several large islands, such as Sardinia, Corsica, Balearic Islands, etc., mostly controlled by Carthage, Davers has no such guts, facing Thira. When Kuza threatened, he went to offend another powerful force in the Western Mediterranean. As for occupying an enclave in Gaul, Daves never considered it, not to mention that the Dionysian Navy is not very strong, and at the same time This long-distance cross-sea attack is not only a waste of national strength, but also not necessarily able to keep it.

Dionya’s expansion is really limited, how can it break? Davers is immersed in meditation...

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

September is the favorite month of the Diaonians, not only the harvest season, but also the month when the Dionysian protection **** Hades was born (September 9th), when there is not only a lively celebration, And the All-Diaonia League football finals will also be held, this is a month of Dionya's national carnival, especially in Turui.

Therefore, in many Greek city-states headed by Athens, September is called the month of Love Lafayette (the month of the deer festival, used to worship the goddess Artemis), while in Dionia it will be September. Officially designated as the month of Pluto. Similarly, April is also designated as the month of marriage for the sacrifice of Hera, while in many Greek city-states, the month of marriage is set for July...

It can be seen that Diaonia has begun to gradually differ from traditional Greek city-states in terms of life, customs, and culture.

On this day, a young man came from the port of Turui. He was called Megalis, a medium-sized man, not very strong, but his body was well-proportioned and healthy.

Apparently, he was the first to come to Turui. He did not expect that there would be so many boats in the port. It took a long time to get on the dock, and then he struggled out of the port. Outside the port, even the carriages and trucks that had been boarded had long been called out. He had to walk for more than an hour to get outside the city of Turui, where long queues had been arranged.

McGallis is not in a hurry, waiting in line to wait in order, listening to the people around him chatting happily. "This year's Hades Festival will be a big performance in the Victory Square or guess what the championship of this year's football game will be. The city's team...", while walking along the crowd, when he faced the city guards, it was already noon.

Although he was hungry in the stomach, he had to bear the temper to answer the question from the city guard.

“Is it a Diaonian citizen? If not, please go back. In the past few days, Gentiles and free people are not allowed to enter in the city of Turui!”

"I am a Diaonian citizen, called Megalis, who lives in Crimea, number 1356..." McGalis said fluently.

Cityguard stared at him and said, “Show me the identity card.” According to Daves’ proposal, Dionia made a bronze medal for every official citizen from the previous year (Tuli has Copper mines are therefore more convenient. The name of the citizen is engraved on the front and the city of the residence and the citizen number of the city are engraved on the reverse side. This is just a simple identity certification, but it is a great initiative in this era, which facilitates the management of the movement of citizens in the territory, especially for the public officials of the household registration department. For example, a citizen living in Turui committed a law in the city of Aspústum. After recording the crimes of the law, the city transported the residence registration office of Turui City by post. The public officials will Before you can find the files of the citizen, you can record the crimes. This is a tens of thousands of citizens in Tuli, and many citizens are still in the same name. It is a very troublesome thing to find out. Now there is a city citizen number. It's easy to find. Moreover, although the identity bronze medal is simple to make, each city number is unique. It is easy to check whether it is forged. Once someone has forged it, according to the law of Dionia, this is a felony. Most people dare to fake.

McGales took the bronze medal from his arms and handed it to the city guard.

City guard looked carefully and threw the bronze medal back to him. There were many people entering and leaving Turai City every day. Of course, it is impossible for the city guard to register. He pointed to the bulging bag that McGillis carried and said, "What is inside?"

"It's all with coins. You know, the rugby game will last for nearly a month, and the cost will be quite a lot," McGalis said.

"Open it and see." City guard looked serious.

McGarys had no choice but to open.

"Oh, oh yeah..." City Guard reached into it and fiddled twice. It was indeed a coin. Then he nodded and said, "Go in."

McGalis took the package and just took two steps.

"Right." City guard shouted at the back, and the heart of McGalis suddenly jumped.

"You'd better deposit the money into the Christopher Bank. It's safe to use it when you use it."

McGalis sighed with relief.

Into the city, according to the map I have seen before, all the way to ask people, finally found this hotel not far from the Grand Arena of Diaonia.

There are already many people in the lobby.

McGalis squeezed to the counter, and the waiter inside looked at him and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, the house is full."

"I have a reservation." McGary responded immediately.

The waiter screamed and asked: "How many rooms? Who ordered?"

"Room 17, Room for Orolas." McGary fluently replied.

The waiter immediately opened the register and said: "Yes, room 17 is indeed booked for five days first, then you are called Megalis?"

McGalis showed him the bronze medal.

After confirming the waiter, he nodded and said, "Please come with me." After that, he took McGalis to the upper floor.

"Lucky people." Someone muttered in the lobby. In fact, many of the people who came to the celebrations lived directly in the home of the Turui people. Only some new citizens or reserve citizens had to live in the hotel because they had no friends and acquaintances in Turui.

McGalis entered the house, and after the waiter left, he quickly tied the door and carefully looked at the interior layout.

Then I walked over to the bed and forced the bed out a little. I reached for the bottom of the bed on the side of the wall and groped, and quickly pulled out a thing wrapped tightly with linen.

He opened it cautiously, only to see that it was a blue-eyed dagger...

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

In the next few days, McGarys traveled through the streets and alleys of the city of Turui, especially the Temple of Hades, and observed the terrain. In addition to the right-wings to the Turifs to carefully inspect the celebrations, other times are alone, try not to contact others.

It was only that he had a problem in the city of Turui and fell in love with the food at the Clithista restaurant. Despite many deaths on the battlefield, this time the task gave him considerable pressure. Where is the best place to relieve stress in the city-state? Of course it is a restaurant (although it is an arena in Diaonia).

As a mercenary, Megalis, who has lived a simple life, was quickly captured by the food of the Clithista restaurant, yak mutton, yak belly, fresh fish soup, honey bread, fried squid... ... Everything made him rumored, so he quickly learned some of the "bad habits" of the rich people of Dionya - spending three meals a day in the restaurant.

But he forgot one thing, in order to be able to stay in the room in the city of Turui in time, he came eight days from the celebration of September 9. The food at the Clithista restaurant is not cheap, not to mention the fact that during the celebration, the city’s staff were full and the prices of consumer goods were rising, especially for food. After a few days, McGalis discovered that his "Hades Silver Coin" had run out and had to pay with other city-state currencies, but the restaurant waiter refused to accept it and said: In addition to the silver coins issued by Dionya , do not accept coins from other city-states.

McGalis was helpless, and for the sake of convenience, he came to the Christopher Bank with all the money in the parcel.

Finally, it was his turn. The employee of the bank asked him from the counter through the iron window: "Do you save money or withdraw money?"

"Exchange the Dionysian silver coin." McGallis patted the baggage on his shoulder.

The employee looked at it and handed out a papyrus: "Write the name of the currency you want to redeem, and the quantity..."

McGary's face is now: "I... I can't read liters Employees obviously encounter this kind of situation, and he continues to say the same tone: "This way... you told me to have How much currency to redeem, then stuff the money you want to redeem, and watch me confirm it for you, do you agree? ”

McGalis hesitated, nodded and agreed, and then told the employee the type of currency he was going to exchange, the number, and so on.

The employee listened and took notes. When he heard "Syracuse Four Drachma", the stylus trembled slightly, but from time to time there will be Sicilian merchants to save money and exchange coins. Not very rare.

When he finished recording, when McGallis stuffed the window, he called another employee to count and review.

When opening the bag of coins, the employees seem to be careless and in fact looked very carefully. Among the coins of the baggage, the number of "Syracuse four drachma silver coins" is the largest, and some are still new. His heart beats involuntarily...

"Ansantas, you must go to Laos this time, you must persuade this child! He has just been a governor for a few days, but he hasn’t put the chair hot yet, he has to modify Laos. Law, strictly governing the illegal activities in the city of Laos..." Daphus said with some anger: "This is a declaration of war to the nobles of Laos (actually the former tribal leaders), and also threatened He wants to give more rights to the civilians. Hey! He thought who he is, even his father did not dare to do this! What did he think of Laos? Dionya, or Athens? No, he did not know about Rao It’s not really a Greek city, it’s just a name for an old tribal alliance...”
