"Seriously, the deity creation is really wonderful! You see the two elephants are so huge and mighty, but the character is very docile, especially the little elephant, her little nose is dragging the tail of the mother elephant. Willing to let go, the mother elephant has not been annoyed, but instead sucked the leaves with her nose and ate it for the baby elephant ... This reminded me of Aviaia when she was a child. She was always like that, always next to me, I was afraid that I would leave her ... "Agnes said with a smile and sighed.
Daveus looked at Agnes, who was hard to become so active, and said with a smile: "I see you, I seem to be hooked on these elephants!"
"Isn't it!" Christosia finally found a confidant and complained loudly: "Ignatius told me just now that she won't go to the Temple of Hera today. She wants to see an elephant at home for a day. Let me accompany her! Tell me, we are almost 50 years old, how can we be like a child! Besides, I am so busy now, how can I spare time to watch elephants ... "
"I see, today we all put aside other things, go to see elephants with the children, and enjoy the happiness of the whole family together!" Daveus suggested loudly.
"Okay!" Agnes smiled like a flower and immediately clapped her hands to agree.
Christoia frowned slightly, just wanting to speak out, Daveus gently held her hand and said softly: "You are busy every day, let yourself relax today."
Davis's concerned eyes softened Christoya's heart: "Well, today we will stay with our children at home and go nowhere. But ... it is not a good idea to put the elephant next to the mansion. Although that guy looks docile, but they are so big after all, in case one day they will be mad, it will cause danger to us!
There is ... this elephant is after all a rare animal that the people of the Kingdom have never seen. After being transported to the mountain yesterday, many people want to come in and watch, including some elders. This morning, the children let their good classmates pass through checkpoints and also go up the mountain to watch elephants ... Over time, the safety here is difficult to guarantee! ... "
"I have already considered this matter." Daveus said unhurriedly: "Christoya, then we will have another business."
"What is it ?!" Christoya immediately got a spirit.
"Build a zoo."
"Zoo?"
"We have heard the story of Herculia strangling the Nemean lion from a young age, but have you ever seen a real lion?"
Sister Christosia shook her head (actually in this era, Asia Minor and the Inland of the Two Rivers also had lion habitats, but Milly was a seaside city state, and Greek women were not allowed to go far, so Klee Stoya has no chance to see).
"We've heard the story of Apollo shooting the python skin. You may have seen a snake, but have you seen a real python?"
The two shook their heads again.
"We have all heard of hippos and crocodiles in the Nile River in Egypt, but what do hippos and crocodiles look like? I'm afraid there are not many Dionysians who have actually seen them. : "So why don't we build a zoo? Keep these weird animals in this zoo, let them each live in a certain area of the park, and create their own suitable living environment for them, do you think there will be people to watch? "
"Of course there will be!" Agnes replied immediately: "An elephant alone makes the people so crazy. When I came back yesterday, I heard the captain of the court guard under the mountain complaining that the people wanted to see the elephant. If you want to break through, you will almost clash with them. "
After many years of business, Christoya immediately understood the meaning of Davis ’s words and asked uncertainly: “You mean to say that it ’s like charging a ticket to the people watching the game when rugby and football games are held in the arena. same?"
"That's right." Davers secretly praised his wife's quick thinking and continued to explain: "After all, it costs money to raise these animals, and it also needs to hire a lot of manpower to maintain the entire zoo ... The money collected through tickets can just make up for these consumptions . As for where the rare animals in the zoo come from? We do n’t have to worry at all, the city-states and forces that have good relations with Dionysia and want to have good relations with Dionysia are learning that I built a zoo and are collecting After the rare animals, they will send me the initiative to strengthen the friendship with me ...
With the expansion of the kingdom, our zoo will only grow bigger and bigger, keeping more and more rare animals. By that time, Turiyi could not only eat good food, watch competitions, soak in hot springs, enjoy the celebrations ... but also watch the zoo, whether it is for ordinary people, school students, or academics who do n’t have to take the risk to travel abroad. And to study most of the rare animals in this world, this is a very lucky thing! At the same time let them know how great the deity is, he not only created us humans, but also created so many wonderful animals, we are not alone ... "
Davers talked about the prospect of the zoo, but his heart was filled with emotion: when he learned from Ansitanos that the Mauritanian messenger sent several elephants, his first reaction at the time was ——This must be a branch of the North African Elephant and African Elephant in the legend of previous life! Pilus had defeated the Roman army several times with it, and Hannibal had included it in the army and threatened the Romans, but unfortunately it was extinct in Roman times, not because of war, but because of war. Because the Romans were fanatically fighting. The Romans captured various beasts from all over the Mediterranean and transported them to the Colosseum to let the gladiators kill them to earn money and at the same time give the audience excitement ...
Daveus read an article in his previous life, a Roman emperor held a grand gladiator competition to please the people of Rome, and killed thousands of beasts during the entire gladiator competition. In the continuous killing of the Romans, let alone the North African elephant, the entire Mediterranean region can no longer see any beasts such as lions and leopards. If it is not the terrible Sahara desert, it is difficult to penetrate, so that the animals south of the desert can survive. The modern people can only understand African beasts and lions and other beasts in the literature.
It can be said that the westerners of the previous life have pursued a crazy way of looting nature from ancient times to the present. In this life, Davers wants to change them, so let's start from the zoo to develop the good habits of children and animals.

Okreton asked Dionysia ’s foreign ministry officials to submit his request to meet King Davers, but there was no news for two days. Seeing that the celebration was about to begin, he was anxious and had to Choose to follow another idea given by the official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
During the celebration, not only many foreign envoys and distinguished guests came to Turi, but the chief executives and important officials in various towns also tried to spare free time and rushed back to participate. At the same time, visits to the Minister of the Kingdom will also become frequent. In general, the residences of the five rotating chairmen and ministers will become incompetent.
It stands to reason that Haka ’s mansion will be even more so, because since their brother came to Turiri last year, Hasdruba became the regimental commander and soon moved north to serve, and Haka became the official rotating chairman of the Senate Although he was still recovering from illness, Davis could not wait to let him take charge of some government affairs in order to get acquainted with the kingdom's political system as soon as possible. In addition, Dido, another important member of the Margonide family, became the prince and gave birth The two little princes ... The Margonide family is very popular in the kingdom politics. It is conceivable that the visiting kingdom officials should be like crucian carp, but the actual situation is sparse.
Because Haka had publicly declared: "He is very sick and needs rest, so officials are not welcome to visit."
And, Helps endorsed him.
At the beginning, the Kingdom officials also doubted that after several Phoenician veterans were rejected from the door, they finally determined that Haka ’s story was true.
After Okritton arrived in Turri ~ www.novelhall.com ~ learned this situation deliberately, coupled with the years of grievances between the Margonides and Hannoites, he had been hesitant, but now there is no way, He only had the courage to visit the house, but he didn't expect to get consent.
Of course, the former Carthage nobleman and today ’s minister of the Kingdom of Dionysia received guests from their hometown in a very special way-bathing.
The bath was invented by the Dionysians, but it was quickly introduced to Carthage after the earliest signing of a peace agreement between the two countries more than a decade ago. Germe thermal baths are the places Carthage loves to go, of course now It already belongs to the Kingdom of Dionia.
Although Ocreton was surprised by this request, Haka was willing to see him as an unexpected joy, and he dared to refuse it.
The bathroom of the Haka family was built strictly in accordance with the traditional bathroom pattern of Dionysia. When Ocreton completed the previous procedures and walked into the heated pool, Haka was already sitting in the pool.
Before, Okritton had not seen Haka, but he had long heard that the head of the Margonid family, Shimilko, had a very smart second son, but unfortunately he had a disease since his birth, and he had been treated for it. The doctor made a diagnosis: this child can't live 20 years old. .
However, although Hakkar in front of Okritton is slightly thin, but his face is ruddy and his eyes are shining, he does not look like a person who is about to step into the grave.
Haka looked at him and said flatly: "After I came to Turri, Dr. Dionia suggested that people like me who ca n’t do vigorous exercise should exercise more in the bathroom, which is good for health. I listen It ’s recommended to take a bath every day. I happened to be taking a bath when you came, so please come here to meet you. "
