I am reborn as a lord in Rome

Archon Anthony hesitated for a moment, cleared his throat, and said, "Tell me your price, Woolledindo.

"The starting price of each horse is one hundred gold coins, and the price of the Lima is eighty gold coins!" Wu Lai quoted the price very calmly.

"This is a robbery! The best war horse is no more than fifty gold coins! The most powerful horse is no more than six, it is nothing more than putting on your new horse harness, is your horse harness a gods?!" A voice that was obviously a little angry sounded.

"You're right!" Woolley looked at where the voice came from, and then, jumping off the box, opened the lid.

He pulled out an object that was dark in color but glowed as white as the moonlight

: "This is called a saddle!" He picked up a bow-shaped object that was slightly smaller than a palm and connected by two belts

: "This one is called a stirrup!" Finally, he held up four arc-shaped objects: "This one is called a 'pad'! Together, these three things are a complete set of harnesses, which I call 'God-given harnesses', because it came from the revelation of the god Amun!"

Everyone was a little skeptical.

"You are all prominent figures in Seneca City! I believe that the starting price of a hundred gold coins will not deter you! If you can successfully copy it! I don't mind if you make this set of harnesses yourself! Of course, I can't keep the price so high forever, and I promise that in three months, I will take the initiative to reduce this set to a set of twenty gold coins, and of course, I will still choose to sell it with the horses. Woolley put what he called "God-given harness" back into the wooden box, and then closed the lid.

Not far behind him, Nepton paced around leisurely on his horse, not only so that the nobles present could see his comfort, but also to ensure that the nobles would not see the three things too clearly.

"I pledge my life to the god Amun that I will only sell these five hundred horses in the last three months. Woolley raised his right hand, "Now, please bid." Then, he waved his hand downward.

Neptune pulled the reins, and the black horse rose to its feet with a neigh.

"I want five horses!" a nobleman raised his hand.

"I want ten horses!" another nobleman raised his hand.

Woolley smiled slightly, and a wisp of imperceptible excitement passed through his eyes: "No, distinguished citizens, you don't seem to have understood the significance of this auction! I repeat it again! This is the first and last auction!" Archon

Anthony frowned, and suddenly got up and asked, "Woolley Greenor, is there a difference between the harness of the war horse and the horse of the Force?" "

Your Excellency, there is no difference. Woolley replied with a smile.

Anthony nodded and raised his right hand: "Then, I want all these five hundred horses." As soon as he said this, the audience was in an uproar, 500 horses, that would require 42,000 gold coins!

Woolley smiled and said in his heart, but his right hand was raised again: "Very good! Your Excellency the Archon has set a perfect example for everyone, but according to the auction rules, you can still get a part at a higher price."

Anthony's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed, and after glancing left and right, he sat back in his chair. Able to control a city-state, Anthony is naturally not as gentle as he seems on the surface, and among these people on the scene, he is the first to understand Woolley's hint- Whoever can include the harness this time, who can get the greatest advantage, whether it is copying or offering these harness to the nobles and rich people at a higher level, can get back unimaginable benefits, you know, there are more militants in the Assyrian territory, and now that the territorial power has been divided, whoever can take the lead in breaking through the defense line of the Hullites means that he will inevitably obtain incalculable wealth and glory, after all, most of the area in the Hullit territory is plains, the most suitable plains for cavalry battles.

That's why Anthony wanted to get off these five hundred horses, but he didn't think that the stinky boy in front of him was still greedy and insufficient, and under his repeated hints, the other nobles had slowly tasted the taste.

If it really doesn't work, then I'll compete with them to see who is faster. Anthony thought so, among the nobles present, he was sure that there were only three or four people who could be suppressed, so he would not think that he would win.

"Fifty horses! a hundred gold coins each!" a nobleman stood up, and after saying firmly, he glanced at Anthony.

"Fifty horses! a hundred gold coins each!" another nobleman stood up, his chin raised arrogantly.

Woolley's face continued to maintain a calm smile, but Gauguin, not far behind him, already felt dizzy.

"Oh my God, that's too, it's too unbelievable. Gauguin said to himself silently, as the housekeeper of the White Stone Building, he naturally knew the cost of these things, so he had to be frightened and happy for Woolley's "boldness".

"One hundred horses! one hundred and ten gold coins each!" When the voice reached his ears, Woolley was overjoyed, and said to himself, you scoundrels, you have finally raised the price a little.

Woolley's auction ended quickly, and after deliberately controlling the pace to avoid long nights, Anthony finally bought a hundred horses for a hundred gold coins each, and the four hundred horses were finally divided among the five nobles for one hundred and fifteen each.

Anthony breathed a sigh of relief, for judging from this situation, the nobles still had some scruples about him.

After finalizing the buyer, Woolley took out the contract and fire seal that had been prepared long ago.

Seeing Woolley's calm smile, Gauguin's lips trembled involuntarily, and he said in his heart that it seems that Young Master Woolley is really a god, otherwise how can he be so calm, 56,000 gold coins, that's more than 3,850 pounds of gold, and it will take at least four ox carts to pull it ......

When Anthony signed the deed, he lowered his voice with a smirk: "Woolly Greendo, you are really surprised, by the way, remind you, remember to pay your taxes on time."

"Of course, Your Excellency, I will not forget this, what is the rate of the tax on civil goods? After Wu Lai finished smiling, he also lowered his voice, "Your Excellency, you should be glad that you have picked up a big bargain, if I hold this auction in Assyria, do you guess my income will be more? That's because my father once told me that you should not grab any benefits to the maximum, and that leaving a line in everything is the way to build the world, not to mention, I am basically sure that in the next few years, I will hold this type of auction from time to time.

Anthony was stunned, savored Woolley's words, and nodded solemnly.

"I agree with your father. Before leaving, Anthony said very seriously.

Woolley smiled slightly, bowed down to give a farewell gift, and after straightening up, he summoned Neptune to his side: "If you don't mind, I'm going to let you go on an errand in Katy City."

"Listen to you, Master Woolley. Nepton replied.

When the news of the auction spread in Seneca City, the emotions of all those who heard it for the first time were - shocked! Extremely shocked! A thirteen-year-old

boy actually made a deal with several great nobles, including the archon Antony, in only half a day, and the amount of this transaction actually reached 56,000 gold coins!

"If he is not a god, then he must be a demon." Someone said behind his back.

While compliments, envy, jealousy, curiosity, and amazement revolved around Woolley's presence in the Seneca city-state, the Seneca nobles had to admit the fact that Woolley Grindo had become one of the middle-class nobles of the Seneca city-state, for the reason that in addition to the more than 50,000 gold coins he knew, he also had a few workshops that he didn't know would make a fortune at some point.

It all seemed like a miracle arranged by the gods, considering that a year ago, Woolleglindo was just a poor child who had just lost his father, but it only took him one year to achieve what many small families had to toil for two or three generations to pray for.

What is a middle-class aristocracy - according to the annotations of the Assyrian code and its reality, after Woolley becomes a middle-class nobleman, he will have the right to express his opinion and vote in the council of the city-state nobles within the Seneca city-state, rather than only observing like the minor nobles, if Woolley is a little ambitious or needed, he can even contact several middle-class nobles to make joint suggestions on the management and construction of the Seneca city-state, which should be called "participating in politics" to describe it in a word that Woolley is familiar with.

Lady Leah went crazy with joy after hearing the news, Woolley's friendship with Glyndor Manor during this time gave her reason to be happy for Woolley, anyway, she was also Woolley's stepmother, she was still nursing Woolley's half-brother Aden, and she even pressed some useful information from Tina.

So, Lady Leah has been in a particularly good mood lately.

Woolley was also in a good mood.

But the nobles who bought the horses were not very happy, for they would have to wait a few more days to get them, but they could not complain about it, for the deed was very clear - a deposit of 10% was paid first, and the rest was paid on delivery.

After more than ten days, the horses finally entered the confines of the Seneca city-state, and the horse-men of Nepton and the House of Perseth had just seen the walls of Seneca when they were stopped by Woolley and his men who had been waiting here for almost a day.

After a busy day, five hundred horses were finally fully equipped before nightfall, and the craftsmen, led by Stin, were paralyzed from exhaustion.

The next day, Woolley received bags of heavy gold coins from the nobles who had ordered the horses, and smiled as he took them.

"It's a pleasure to work with, and I promise that the next delivery will be at least twice as fast as it is now. Woolley said this to every nobleman who bought a horse.

These aristocrats smiled and nodded in the same way, and said disapprovingly in their hearts, do you still want to have a next time?

A few days later, the "great and bold customers", including the consul Antony, were deflated, because after replacing them with the best copper or silver, the craftsmen of the great nobles soon imitated stirrups and horseshoes, and of course, figured out the principle and function of stirrups and horsesshoes. But

, is that all? The answer is—no! The

skilled craftsmen of the great nobles could not reproduce the saddles at all, though they had disassembled and installed them many times, and carefully studied every part many times. But when they finished assembling the imitation parts, they immediately found that the saddle they made was different from the saddle made by Woolly - the homemade saddle could not achieve the comfort of the original saddle at all, although all the imitation parts were strictly according to the dimensions of the original.

The imitation would not be interrupted, but after busy, experimenting, busy, and experimenting, the craftsmen came to a unanimous conclusion that the metal used in Woolleglindor's harness was an unprecedented metal, and that toughness and rigidity were perfectly combined in this metal, so that in addition to being resistant to wear and tear and easy to form, it was more than twice as lightweight, which meant that horses wearing this harness could save a lot of horsepower.

At this time, all the nobles who bought the harness had no choice but to accept the reality - since they could not imitate the saddle, they should only imitate the horseshoe and stirrups.

Just as the nobles began to manufacture horseshoes and stirrups in batches, and were arguing over how to divide the promotion of the Assyrian lands, the consul Antony quietly approached Woolley and asked if he could sell two thousand harnesses in advance.

"I am very sorry, Your Excellency the Consul, but I promise that in three months I will be able to sell it to you first, but I must first explain that I will have to sell it with the horses. Woolley replied with a smile.

"Of course, I don't have any opinion. Not only did Anthony not have the slightest expression of frustration on his face, but there was even a flash of excitement in his eyes, "But I want to make sure again, will the price be reduced to a set of twenty pieces as you said before?" "

It has to be, I'm a citizen who takes commitment very seriously. Woolley said with a smile, "Your Excellency the Archon has chosen very wisely, and believe me, it will soon be clear to everyone that the imitation is terrible."

Anthony raised an eyebrow and laughed.
