Kaimax coughed cautiously, formally took the ring, then looked around and approached the candlelight in the center of the table, and said, "Listen, Karabis, my friend, don't expect this public works. You don't have that asset or qualification. I have heard that two noble municipal officials gave the qualification to the "savage" Neruda for the construction of the Colosseum, and the grand theatre contracted to the "horned straw hat" Crassus-you also know that they didn't expect to make any money in it, it was their money.

Build momentum for yourself - Neruda wants to run for the next consul, while the inspector Crassus wants to obtain the right to form a legion to the Egyptian expedition. The expenses of each building will not be reduced to 300 to 500 Tarants. Your assets? There are only five Tarants, save!" Listening to Kaimax's advice, Karabis thought slowly, ate a bite of roasted lamb, and said, "I don't expect to take over the Colosseum or the Grand Theater. In fact, I am going to buy the Walin Public Apartment District, located in Mount Evandini, which is sold by your municipal department this time."

"Oh, damn, Karabis, is it the sirens that confused your mind? Go and buy that broken place! After living in Rome for a year, you can't see it? Mount Evandini and Subra are the most famous areas in the city. Even Cicero will not buy a property there - Oh, I heard that all his two apartments collapsed naturally together yesterday, and rats ran all over the streets in the ruins. Listen to me, I will use my connections immediately to find you a trust company from other provinces. Your money will be used to lend to taxpayers. You can earn twice the money in three years." Kaimax was excited, and his tone was obviously raised.

"Your advice is very good, but I still think three years are too long." Karabis ticked, "Listen, my best friend has his own plans, but I have the biggest difficulty now, that is, my asset qualifications are not enough when bidding."

Kaimax lowered his head and thought for a while, then patted his chin and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Although the auction qualification in that place requires 100,000 Drakhma, I guess it would be good to get 20,000 yuan. I will operate the qualification documents for you, but I will still advise you..."

His words were interrupted by Karabis's "shhh" action, "I accept your kindness. In the forest, lions and tigers have their way of hunting, but foxes, and after I make this, I will contribute a considerable amount to pave the political future of His Excellency Julius Caesar, and of course I will not forget to open Max, the ring just now, is only a small part of it."

Listening to Karabis' promise, Kaimax's face turned red with excitement, sat straight, holding a wineglass, "I will support it with all my strength!"

In front of a dilapidated Varin apartment area, Karabis walked back and forth on the mud road ahead of it. The road was dusty, and the bottom-floor residents were covered with dark clothes, and carts led by mules and horses. In front of the block was a silted river berth. On the Tiber River, walking along the river berth about a thousand Roman feet, which was the simple dock for the residents of Mount Evandini to receive relief bread. Every day, small ships commissioned by the Municipal Administration arrived here with rough wheat flour and bread and delivered to the half-hungry Roman residents.

Looking further there, the Walin Apartment and the racing yard on the main road are deserted and empty land, and the slums on the mountain have not yet been laid there.

After a while, Milu, Tagus and Pope came. Like Karabis, they took a look at the apartment. Then Pope, who is proficient in civil engineering, gave a definition: if there is no market day, it will collapse here, and the auction day is still ten days later. Then, maybe you can take this place with 15,000 drachmas.

"Asset certification of 100,000 Drakhma is a big problem," Milu added.

Karabis nodded in agreement, saying that someone from the municipal department would help me get certification, and then smiled and said, "Let's go, no matter what, let's go to the bathroom to relax first."

What they went to was a newly built Laconian-style sweat-sweat bathroom. On the front street of the Flower Temple, the stove was set under the arched floor, with mosaic bricks spliced ​​with skeletons and iron hooks. As the ceiling, the group of people sat on the bench of the concave sweat-sweat room with towels. It was hot sweat. After Milu and his group also developed after taking over the Pulaima Villa in Lukuras. They all had thick gold chains around their necks and arms. Everyone had legion tattoos. Among them, the hole in Karabis' left ear was particularly conspicuous. This was the sign of being a slave, which led to no one else who dared to sit with them on this bench.

"You mean, you need the assistance of our veterans?" Milu asked after listening to Karabis's beating statement.

"Yes, with your relatives and children, I need one hundred and fifty to two hundred people to carry out the project of the Varin apartment." Karabis said bluntly, and then paused, saying, "What I have to add is that there is no wage or allowance for the time before the completion of the money."

Milu and a group of people looked at each other, and two of them lowered their heads: they were willing to follow Karabis in the past because they had a lot of money to earn, but now they actually want them to work or work voluntarily. And no one knows whether they can get their hard-earned money in the future. At least there is no guarantee in Karabis' tone, which is too ridiculous!

After glanced around, the leader Milu continued to ask: "Karabis, our strong relationship is based on the foundation of Xinyi, so for what reason do you want us to help you with the project of the Varin Apartment for free, you must make it clear."

"Because all my assets have been invested. After deducting the auction price and materials, I do not have the ability to pay wages. I am not even sure of completing it now, at least not yet." Karabis admitted.

"Okay, let's do it!" Milu patted his thigh and said, "But also based on Xinyi, you must ensure that you must pay us the full amount of wages after completion."

"Don't you ask what I want to do with the homestead of this apartment?"

"The fewer people know about this kind of thing, the better. You will have a detailed discussion with Pop in two days." Milu then booed, stood up and waved his hand, and said to others, "Who wants to go to the prostitute next to the Flower Temple to have fun, I will pay the bill. I heard that the sister inside would dress up as a virgin to offer fun. Of course, Karabis doesn't have to go. Everyone knows that he is the famous beloved wife's house." Everyone put aside their worries, laughed, and followed Milu one by one.

Leave room for Karabis to think, this is Milu's intention, but just after Milu and the others left, the bathhouse next to him came from the words "Karbis, I just heard that someone was worried about lack of money, isn't that true?"

Karabis turned his head and saw that the guy talking in the bathtub was covered with a ball of steam and could not see clearly.

"Who are you?"
