Chapter 315 Three cents? Who are you looking down on?

"I heard that the national master's martial arts power is unfathomable. When he was fighting against the barbarians, he captured a city single-handedly!"

"Indeed, he is the first Heavenly Man Realm expert in our country. His strength is beyond doubt."

"I heard that the Imperial Master has reached the late stage of the Heavenly Man Realm. With this level of cultivation, I'm afraid he can destroy Xianyang City with a wave of his hand, right?"

"Haha, stupid! In the late Heavenly Man Realm, as long as the Imperial Master is willing, the city can be taken in the blink of an eye!"

"I see!"

The emotions of the caravan gradually reached a climax as they praised the national teacher.

Some even threatened to turn the men of the Qin Dynasty into fertilizer and the women into their spoils of war!
Just as they did in Europe.

Make the people submit and become their slaves!
Haha!

As the topic deepened, Kate's heart was soaring that he even claimed that he would let the Emperor Qin shine his shoes!

This arrogant man seemed to have forgotten the embarrassment of being forced back by Tian Rao just now.

However, they did not care and firmly believed that their national teacher was extremely powerful.

As everyone was celebrating, the wisest captain, Klein, walked up to Kate and whispered a reminder:
"If the gunpowder of the Qin Dynasty is really as advanced as the rumors say, we may be able to ask the Imperial Master for help and catch those people in one fell swoop."

"At that time, without the Mo family and Mo Ningshuang, the Qin Dynasty would no longer have any force that could threaten the Heavenly Realm of the Emperor."

"And those Mohists, after seeing the glory of our Rome, will be willing to serve us."

"On the contrary, the situation of the Heavenly Man Realm of Daqin is worrying because of the existence of hidden weapons."

Kate heard this and agreed with it deeply.

After all, he had personally experienced the power of gunpowder, and although he thought it was just a crooked way of doing things, he had to admit that its power was considerable.

So he said, "Very good, Klein, your advice is very pertinent."

"In that case, go and devise a plan and have the guards cooperate with you to capture the Mohist in one fell swoop."

"Yes!"

Klein was ecstatic. With the help of His Majesty's personal guards, he could accomplish anything, even within the Roman Empire!

Then, Klein left with joy and began to prepare for action.

As for the rest, Kate has made arrangements.

He thinks he is smart and that some things have to be done in two ways.

So he gathered everyone around him and prepared to launch the second plan.

They blatantly plundered the wealth of Daqin, just as they did in other countries.

"I'm sure you've all heard of the Great Qin's pricing system."

Kate spoke, her eyes gleaming with insight.

"Indeed, your majesty, it is puzzling."

"Indeed, I am really confused by the fact that they are buying excrement at such an astonishing price, even treating gold and silver as dirt."

Kate continued, with a sarcastic smile on her face: "I think people here may be lacking in wisdom."

"To them, silver may be like dust, and their knowledge is quite limited."

"So I plan to exchange the glass cups we brought for some silver."

The number of those glass cups is actually quite considerable.

Kate had amassed a fortune from these cups during her travels to other countries.

This is his pride in his country's handicrafts.

Considering that the people of Daqin even regarded feces as treasures, he firmly believed that these glass cups would be able to be exchanged for huge amounts of silver, and might even make the people lose their homes and fortunes in exchange for them.

"Those ordinary people who have never seen the world will probably regard these glass cups as treasures from heaven!"

Thinking of this, Kate couldn't help laughing, and mountains of silver seemed to appear before her eyes.

"Haha! First, we need to make some money from the Qin people in an honest way. This is our mission now!" The companions of the caravan had already understood this tacitly, and they responded one after another: "Okay! When we have the money, we will enjoy it to our heart's content! Haha!"

Everyone acted quickly, busying themselves with sorting out the goods and preparing for tomorrow's opportunity to make a fortune.

Kate lay comfortably on the bed, looking forward to tomorrow's generous profits.

……

The next afternoon, the caravan was ready to set off, heading straight for the market in the Qin city of Xianyang!

The Romans were confident that their goods would cause a sensation.

The dazzling array of treasures includes, but is not limited to, exquisite Roman glass cups and glass ornaments.

At first, the common people of Daqin were indeed a little curious. After all, these merchants came from far away and might have good goods.

However, when they saw the strange-looking cups on the shelves, they all backed off.

The Roman merchants were not discouraged by this, but just waited quietly.

After a long time, a farmer finally approached the Roman merchant's stall.

The Roman merchants looked at the peasants' simple attire and sneered in their hearts.

"How can this guy possibly afford these glass cups! How ridiculous!" the businessman thought to himself.

However, they did not know that the Daqin farmer just wanted to buy a few cups to hold drinking water at home.

Although the cup looks a bit ordinary, why should it be gorgeous when it is used for drinking water?
"Hello, how much are these cups?" the farmer asked.

The Roman merchant smiled contemptuously, his voice full of sarcasm: "A treasure like this costs one hundred taels of silver! Do you think you have the financial resources to do that?!"

"Hmm? That's the price?"

The farmer's face was full of confusion.

His motive was simple. He just heard that foreign goods from outside the region might be cheaper, so he came here out of curiosity.

However, the price tag in front of him left him dumbfounded.

These cups look ordinary, how could they be worth one hundred taels of silver each?
He just couldn't understand it.

Even compared with the Thirteenth Young Master's collection, it's not so outrageous.

The Roman merchant thought the peasants were intimidated by the high price, and a hint of ridicule appeared on his face: "It's normal that you lowly people have never seen such treasures. You people of the Qin Dynasty probably don't know how to appreciate them."

This insult infuriated the farmers and onlookers.

He retorted loudly: "What kind of treasure is this thing of yours? I don't think it's worth a penny!"

"Haha! You can't afford it but you still insist on being stubborn. No wonder you can only be an inferior person!" The Roman merchant responded with a sneer.

"These are the treasures of our Rome! If you haven't seen them, you haven't seen them!"

The arrogance of the Roman merchants caused ridicule from passers-by.

"Haha, it turns out that the barbarians are just so ignorant. Normally, no one would want a cup like this if I gave it to someone."

"Oh, forget it. Why argue with barbarians? Let's go."

The peasants were kind-hearted and did not take the Romans' words to heart.

There is no point in getting entangled with ignorant people.

Besides, the family really needed a cup for drinking water, so he took out three cents from his pocket.

"Ten for three cents, one price!"

Upon hearing this, the Roman merchants were furious.

"Get out! You lowly person! This is our Roman treasure!"

"Three cents! What the hell do you think this is!!!"
