After saying that, Li Bida immediately said that he could take out three thousand tarantes to help Ptolemy Twelve. But in fact, you should know that for this money, Li Bida used his reputation as an intermediary to raise two thousand tarantes, and took out all the 1,200 tarantes that the master had distributed to him. To put it bluntly, this time it was a battle of despair.

This speech made Ptolemy Twelve extremely moved. They completely forgot the arrogant delirium on the cruise ship just now. They hurriedly thanked the low-ranking servant for their kindness. However, his daughter was a little doubtful about Li Bida. Cleopatra opened her red lips and asked: "Dear Li Bidaus, your identity must be a naturalized noble. What is your general status in the rank of the servant in the Republic?"

"Shame, it's just a starting official rank." Li Bida did not hide anything.

"Then you will invest such a huge amount of money to help your father must have a equal return. I really don't know what can the father repay your loan?"

Li Bida immediately felt that the topic had entered a critical stage and a showdown stage, but in front of this smart little girl, his words needed twelve degrees of caution. "I have a friend, the current Queen of Ubertnia, and the queen of Mitradati, who was the traditional friendship with the Ptolemaic dynasty. I entrusted me to assist the noble pharaoh family. So I could only give it all. But the final consequences of the matter could only be done."

Over there, the Pharaoh was already moved. He raised his scepter slightly and said to Libida: "There were many Roman citizens who served as officers or were responsible for finance and taxation in my dynasty, and of course, there were also senior slaves - Libidaus. As long as we can succeed in joining forces, you will be the Minister of Finance in my palace in the future!"

When the Pharaoh stayed to rest, in the evening, "Little Queen" took her maid to quietly call Li Bida who was about to leave. She looked up with her very arrogant appearance and judged Li Bida's behavior. "In fact, do you want to use this loan to control the lifeline of the entire Egypt, right? First, he became the Minister of Finance by relying on his creditor, and then monopolize Egypt's high-quality wheat, ivory, sedge, and porphyry trade." In the sound of a bell, Cleopatra tiptoed and looked at Li Bida's eyes. "Then he had to master the customs, taxes and the palace, and finally seek this country."

Li Bida smiled and said that he had no such extravagant hope.

"I forgot to tell you that I am a great Egyptian, and like many of your Roman politicians, I cannot tolerate relying on the breath of outsiders. If I become a female pharaoh..." As soon as Cleopatra said this, the two maids knelt at her feet in panic and pulled the corner of her clothes to show warning. This detail was swept in Li Bida's eyes. He looked at the flower gallery, but saw a man shaking after the statue of the goddess of virtue, as if he was the subordinate of Mothamenis.

Seeing this scene, Li Bida understood a lot of information: Ptolemy Twelve, the flute player, according to his habit of escaping, would not bring all his children with him in case of accidents. His eldest daughter betrayed him, and Cleopatra was smart and proficient in many languages ​​and was brought by his side. Therefore, the Pharaoh should have an heir beside him, otherwise the two maids would not have paniced because of Ker's presumptuous words, and the eunuch would not have stared at the skeleton of this ten-year-old girl.

But this kind of internal strife is what Li Bida is best at. Now I am no longer the age when I was fighting with Adiana back then. If I don’t believe it, even a little girl can’t deal with it. So he smiled and promised the girl that he was just the guest of Queen Ubert’s entry, and wanted to be loyal and wise to the hostess he fell in love. The same is true for helping Lingzun himself, and said calmly: “I think helping Lingzun is to help you…”

"You are not like a Roman bureaucrat, but like a speculative businessman. Tell me, I don't object to just listen." Cleopatra sat down with a lazy politeness and said.

"I can only say that I will arrange an agent and a mercenary officer soon. The cause of restoration of the country called Lingzun is actually for your cause." Li Bida said.

"My career?" Then Xiao Yanxiu let out a silver bell-like laugh, and the earrings and anklets jingled, "I have said in advance. I believe that Libidaus has not aged to the point of amnesia. I am a big Egyptian. Although I am only ten years old, even if I have great power in the future, I will do my best to protect the independence of the country and the dynasty, so that I will not hand over the country to Rome in my will like so many foolish male monarchs in Asia Minor and Syria."

"Your tone is a little bit louder. You must know that there is no country in the world that can defeat Rome. Only Rome can destroy Rome in the future." Li Bida's words were deliberately unfathomable to suppress this little girl.

Unexpectedly, Cleopatra smiled innocently and said, "Then I will use my wisdom to conquer the man who destroyed Rome." After that, she leaned her body sideways, put her hands on her chin as if they were cute, and said to Li Bida, would that man be you?

Now it was Li Bida's turn to speak in a mess, and he could only talk to the left and right and smiled foolishly...

After a bazaar, Pompei, who received three thousand Tarant's benefits, had already begun to call for Ptolemy's cause of restoration in the Temple of Concord. However, unexpectedly, most of the elders had no interest in participating in the internal affairs of Egypt. They would rather keep the Republic's limited glory and isolation in this troublesome autumn. So three thousand Tarant was sent to Caesar again. No, according to Li Bida's plan, only half of it was given. Caesar quickly used the money to pay off the principal and interest that Crassus had borrowed before. At this point, the debt that had plagued Caesar for many years was finally resolved. The remaining hundreds of Tarant were all used for the consul's election of his father-in-law, Piso, and the wedding banquet costs of Caesar and his daughter.

As for the 1,500 Tarant, Li Bida's name is Ptolemy Twelve, for the time being, because since Caesar and Pompey both collected your money, it means that they will help you do this. But the senators are now in a tight spot, and Caesar, as the consul, has other more important matters. It seems that it will be delayed for a while before the conclusion can be seen. Don't worry, I will do my best to help you handle it, so you can enjoy the music feast in the palace in Naples. So this half of the money is the only way to spend money in Rome, and the first turnover money to collect mercenaries.
