Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 292: drought

His interests have not been harmed, and he has only changed his allegiance, which is much better than Antioch.

One after another kings stepped forward to listen to the entrustment, and their territories were basically reduced by a large margin, but it was a lot better than getting nothing at all in the past.

Looking at the complex expressions of the kings, Li Wei ended the canonization ceremony.

In the military camp in Damascus, Li Wei convened a military meeting.

"It was some Arab coalition forces that attacked Syria. Except for some Arab tribes and small countries, the most powerful was the Kingdom of Nebert. They..."

Azina personally introduced Li Wei.

The Kingdom of Naibert is located at the border of Syria and Arabia. Because of its location in the desert, it is very difficult to attack.

After listening to the introduction, Li Wei had a headache. The desert is a forbidden area for humans. It is not easy to attack the Arabs in the desert.

"How much force can they use at most?"

Li Wei asked.

"All Arab men are fighters, and they can assemble an army of about 40,000 at most."

Azina said.

Li Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the population carrying capacity of the desert was too poor.

Although their territory is not small, it's not bad to be able to gather 40,000 troops.

Finally, there is no need to face the 300,000 army at every turn. This time should be an easy journey of abuse of food. The only thing that needs attention is the special environment of the desert.

"If the general intends to attack them, I am willing to personally be the general's guide."

Azina said flatly.

"I'll talk about this later."

Li Wei shook his head.

He can't worry about Azina being a guide, what should he do if he leads the army to a dead end.

Azina was startled and didn't take this to heart.

Time flies, two months have passed in a blink of an eye.

With the blazing sun hanging high in the sky, Memius looked at the arid land in a daze. Since the spring ploughing, there has not been a single drop of rain.

The land is cracked, like an ugly scar on the earth.

Although he and two slaves kept fetching water from the fields, all but a small piece of land had died.

People in the village are discussing all this anxiously. If nothing happens, this will be another disaster year, and many people will have nothing.

Although the Mimius family can gain a little bit, for a family of 8 people, it is a drop in the bucket.

Memius considers himself a very knowledgeable person and knows the importance of education.

So all three children sent him to school, but this cost him a lot of money, and the daughter who was just born a few years ago got a serious illness, which almost spent his savings.

Memius felt a little panicked when he thought of the eight mouths waiting to be fed at home, and that he could hardly earn any income within a year.

This made him miss his life in Longcheng. Although the training was a bit harder, but the income was pure income, which was better than watching the sky, eating, and farming.

After returning home, Fabia had already cooked the meal for him. The steaming meal made the whole house like a steamer, and Memius lost his appetite.

Several children are noisy, which makes the family full of vitality.

If it was before, Memius would like to see this scene very much, but today he is inexplicably irritable.

Mieus drooled and looked at the food. He was 14 years old this year, just when he was growing up.

In the past few years, his height has reached nearly 1.7 meters.

Since not only practicing martial arts, but also doing farm work, my stomach is groaning with hunger.

But due to his father's majesty, he could only stare at the food.

Memius is a good talker at home, and no one can eat without him.

"Let's eat."

Memius said.

Mieus cheered, and immediately started to move on to a plate of spaghetti.

This kind of food from Dragon City has become more and more popular recently and spread widely.

The two slaves also ate quickly. Recently, the family has not cooked much food. If they eat slowly, there may be no more food.

Since there is no non-staple egg food or meat food supplement, their appetite is very large.

Xiaomi Miwus had eaten two plates and was not full. When he went to look at the pot, he found that only some soup was left.

"Mom, can't you do more next time? I haven't eaten enough yet."

Mieus couldn't help complaining.

"The cooking at home will be cut off soon, so you can't eat less."

Fabia hugged her little daughter and said loudly.

Xiaomi Miwus bitterly, the key is that he is not full.

Memius had a calm face, he knew that something had to be changed.

"Make a little bit more tomorrow so that Gaius will be full."

Memius said.

Mieus cheered, "Father, you are amazing."

"But we don't have much food, we have to spend a lot of money to buy food, and we have to pay for their tuition, plus some necessary expenses, our money is simply not enough."

Fabia said.

"I know this, I will find a way."

Memius said.

"How do you think of a solution? I asked you to go on an expedition to the East, but if you didn't go, you might still make a lot of money~www.novelmt.com~ Fabia complained.

The news of Li Wei's victory had already been passed. According to his style, the soldiers could at least be allocated several hundred dinars.

There are slaves in the house to help, so there is no need to worry about labor.

"What do you know? Do you know how many people will die in the war?"

Memius said dissatisfied, "When we fought the civil war, at least one of the five people died and two were injured, or they might become disabled."

Hearing this, Fabia stopped talking. It was indeed profitable to serve as a soldier, but it had to be life-saving.

"Then what are you going to do? Ask the prophet for help?"

Fabia asked.

As a doorman of Li Wei, if he encounters financial difficulties, Mimius is indeed qualified to ask Li Wei for help.

"Let's watch it then."

Mimius said with a sullen face.

At this time, Mimius was about to leave, and Mimius stopped him.

"Gaius, haven't you always wanted to go to Rome? Would you like to go to Rome with me in a few days?"

"Of course I would, but...I still have to go to school."

Mieus was a little excited at first, but soon became annoyed again.

"You have been in school for 8 years, that's enough. When I was your age, I already came out to make money."

Memius said.

Hearing this, Mieus was struck by lightning.

"Father, what do you mean, I don't go to school anymore, I want to make money?"

Mieus said.

"Yes it is."

Memius said.

Xiaomi Mieus suddenly got up without a master, how could it be like this?

He is still young, and he still wants to go to school.

Fabia didn't expect Memius to have this idea, but thinking about the family's conditions, she quickly agreed.
