Chapter Thirty-One (1)

Ginath no longer had the energy he had before, his face was pale and trembling at a loss, "What should we do? Should we drive the cattle and sheep back again?! These are all good cattle and sheep, drinking mountain springs and eating tender grass from the mountains. After ten days of walking, the fat was almost consumed, and the meat was more vigorous. Those who could survive here are very healthy cattle and sheep!"

Gerny couldn't bear it anymore. After all, he had been getting along well with these Pottenti herders these two days. He couldn't help but ask Ginath and asked the young man: "Is there any way to make them sell these cattle and sheep? Is it really only possible for them to drive these livestock back to Pottentiya?"

In fact, the young man had already thought about it. He only thought for a while, and then he asked a slave to touch the cattle and sheep flock and squeeze it right. For a moment, the sheep was squeezing, and the picture of a sheep being on the top appeared.

After a while, the slave walked over with dust and nodded at the young man.

The young man relaxed his expression and said to the nervous Ginath: "It's indeed a good cow and a sheep! Cristoya Restaurant, do you know?"

Ginat's eyes lit up. How could he not know about the famous Cristoya Restaurant in the Western Mediterranean cities in Dionia? It was the food launched by this restaurant that doubled the value of cattle and sheep. If his livestock can be sold to Cristoya Restaurant, it would definitely be the honor of any animal husband. He asked anxiously: "Can you contact Cristoya Restaurant?"

The young man said directly: "You drove the cattle and sheep to the Tino River, and I sent a slave to inform the person in charge of Cristoya's restaurant and let him see your cattle and sheep. Your cattle and sheep are of such good quality, I believe he will definitely buy it."

"Asinuo! Thank you! Thank you so much!" Ginat was overjoyed for a moment and kept saying thank you. He didn't have any expectations for this young man who seemed to be young, but he didn't expect that he gave him an unexpected surprise.

"I said Ginath, you just believe this child's words. If he is cheating us from beginning to end, he just wants to buy our cattle and sheep at a very low price!" A Potendia herder reminded loudly from the side.

"Shut up! They want to help us sincerely. How can you say such hurtful words? Hurry up and apologize to him, otherwise I will kick you out of our team!" Ginath was furious.

Before the herdsman could do something, the young man could no longer hold back his breath and said loudly: "You can go to the market to ask first, and then go to the Cristoya restaurant with my slaves to hire someone. I think according to the Cristoya restaurant's usual practice, they will never buy your cattle and sheep at a price lower than the market!"

After saying these words, the young man's face was still blushing with blood. Ginat hurriedly said, "Don't care about that fool's nonsense, we absolutely believe in you! Since Cristoya Restaurant is our future customer, in order to show respect, I'd better invite it with your slave."

After saying that, the young man felt a little regretful. He remembered that his father said to him, 'Under any circumstances, he must learn to keep calm as much as possible in order to respond correctly.' After his mood was slowly calm, he immediately understood when he heard Ginath's words. Ginath actually had some doubts about it. Although he was a little annoyed, he still controlled his emotions and nodded in agreement.

The group walked east along the avenue, and soon they arrived near the river beach.

"Oh, this stone pillar is so high! There is a statue on it!" The Samones looked up at the towering memorial pillar in front of them, and all looked surprised.

"That is the pillar of victory. More than ten years ago, the current King of Dionys, Davers, was only the leader of Greek mercenaries. The Lucanian tribal coalition launched a large-scale invasion of Turiy and defeated Turiy's army. It was about to occupy this fertile land. King Davers led a number of mercenaries far less than those of the Lucanian coalition. "Ginat pointed to the big river beach in front of the left, and said with a complicated expression: "... Nearly 10,000 Lucanian soldiers were wiped out by the blood of the Lucanians at that time, and the river was filled with the bodies of Lucanian soldiers floating on the surface... In this battle, the Lucanians suffered heavy damage, and the tribal alliance finally collapsed... and King Davers became famous in his battle and finally established the powerful Kingdom of Dionys today! The top of the pillar of Victory is the statue of King Davers..."

Ginath's words still contain sighs about the rapid decline of the Lucanian tribal alliance in the past. Although the young people next to him have long been familiar with this past, from the mouths of others, the expression of pride quickly overflows on their faces.

After hearing this, the Samones laughed and said, "There are more people than the other party, but they are still killed by the other party. This means that you Lucanians are not good. If we Samones are absolutely not--"

"Tatoni!" Gerny glared at him fiercely, avoiding his foolishness: The Lucanians were defeated, and the Samonets were so good! More than 20,000 people failed to fight in one battle, and they defeated themselves overnight, and it was a joke to say it!

"It is better to be peaceful. If war can be avoided, it should be avoided as much as possible. There has been no war in Lucania for ten years. Is the life of you Potendians better or worse?" the young man interrupted in time.

"Of course it's much better!" Ginat sighed a little, not out of pleasing the young man: "If it were ten years ago, I would never have thought that today I would walk with the Samones and drink water and chat!"

After hearing this, Gelny was also moved.

At this time, the Samones asked loudly, "Chief, what are they doing?"

Following the direction of his finger, a long dragon appeared in front of the big river beach, extending to a huge white building across the river. On the eve of the Hades celebration, people rushed from all directions to Turiyi, and few left. The direction of this long dragon stood opposite to the people who were bustling on the avenue and heading towards Turiyi. No wonder the Samonets were curious.

"That is the famous hot spring bath in Turiyi." After reminding him, Gerny seemed to have returned to a few years ago, but he was still brought to Turiyi with a little hatred. Unexpectedly, he was warmly entertained, soaking in the hot springs, tasting food, watching competitions, listening to dramas... After staying for several months, he was also warmly treated by King Davers in the palace several times: "...it is to take a bath in the hot springs, and there are specialized training slaves to massage you, which can help you get rid of fatigue. I heard that taking a hot spring bath is very good for the body, and the Dionians like to come here very much..."

The Samones were interested by the description of the leader of Gelny, especially after rushing for ten days, the sweat stains and dust on their bodies were probably thicker, and they felt even more itchy at this moment: "Chief, why don't we go inside and take a shower first?"

"It takes money to take a bath inside, one Opol per person." Ginat reminded him, who knew the financial situation of the Samones and did not think they were willing to pay for a bath.

Gerny really didn't know that there was a charge for money here, because that time, there were special Dionian public officials in Turiyi: Although there were not many Opol, he had 60 people here, and this time he had to pay ten drachmas for taking a bath, which was a bit too much for him.

Gerney was about to refuse, but the young man said, "When you arrive at the camp and settle down, I will take you here to take a good hot spring bath at dusk, wash away dust, and remove fatigue so that you can have a good mental state to participate in Hades celebrations and rugby games."

As soon as the young people finished speaking, the Samonets cheered. When the young people came to greet them at first, these Samonets, who were usually brave and fierce, really didn't take this young man like a child seriously, but the young people were always gentle and enthusiastic, and took the initiative to invite them to drink water, which won their favor. Now they have to take them to take a hot spring bath, which has greatly increased their favor, so they all came over to hug the young people and expressed their gratitude.

The young man's portable slave was a little nervous at first, but soon they relaxed when they saw the young man chatting and laughing with the Samonets.

Going further east and passing through the intersection of the Tino River and the Koseni River, they saw a "city" standing here. It is five or six miles in a radius, surrounded by five-meter-high stone walls. There is a city tower on the stone wall, and a sentry tower behind the city wall. In front of the city wall is a wide moat and suspension bridge, and a deer fort. Teams of fully armed soldiers can be seen patrolling the city...

"Is this Turiy?" asked the Samones and some of the Pottenti's herders in curiosity, because they did not see any pedestrians heading into the city.

"This is the military camp of Turiyi, and it is the place where the first, second and reserve forces of Dionia are trained." The youth explained.

"This is just a military camp?!" The Samones and the Potentiya herders widened their eyes and showed doubts: This city looks bigger than the city of Abenirum and Potentiya, and it is more powerful. It is just a place used by the Dionians to train soldiers?!
