Chapter 339 I advise you to put your things down!

Ying Heng responded without hesitation: "It should be so, no need to pity. These items can be manufactured at any time in Daqin. Instead of leaving them idle and just for viewing, it is better to exchange them for practical things to improve people's well-being."

"Go prepare those goods now. I want you to strive for the greatest benefit for me during the transaction."

Upon hearing this, the caravan members' eyes sparkled with excitement.

How could they miss the opportunity to make money!

Everyone immediately bowed their heads and respectfully promised, "Yes! We will not let Master Thirteen down!"

In the next few days, the Qin Empire's caravans demonstrated amazing trading skills.

In just five days, they created a craze in Rome.

The exquisite glass cups and picturesque silks, each of them amazed the Romans.

After the surprise, the Romans were enthusiastic. When they saw the dazzling treasures, their eyes were burning with desire to possess them.

It is said that the products of the Qin Dynasty also contain the mysterious knowledge of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, which is said to be able to make people immortal.

This was undoubtedly a coveted treasure for the wealthy Roman nobles.

Immortality is a great temptation to those who are unable to practice.

As a result, the goods of the Daqin caravan became hot-sellers when they first went on sale.

In just a few days, nearly half of the goods had been sold.

Such prosperity naturally attracted the covetousness of others.

In the eyes of some Romans, the Qin people were plunderers because the wealth in their hands originally belonged to Rome!

The Roman Empire reacted quickly. After learning of the situation, the emperor immediately ordered his subordinates to forbid the purchase of goods there to prevent money from flowing into Daqin and becoming a weapon to attack Rome in the future.

However, behind the apparent welcome, many Romans were secretly resisting.

This common mentality comes from their intelligence, not stupidity.

They were well aware of the royal call, and their eyes were fixed on the glittering treasures. The gold in their hands became dull, and they wished they could exchange it for gorgeous ornaments to show off.

If someone else possesses the treasure you have always dreamed of, who would be willing to endure the embarrassment of losing face?
Therefore, the Romans' enthusiasm for Daqin products remained unabated.

The Roman system was very different from the Qin Dynasty's county system and it implemented a feudal system.

The royal orders were like passing wind in their ears; the ones who really had an impact were the viscounts and dukes of various territories.

These people are financially strong and have no immunity to the goods of the Qin Dynasty.

Everyday necessities and exquisite equipment are luxuries that are out of reach for these nobles.

They were eager to get these treasures into their possession so that their colleagues would envy them.

After all, if money is not used to enjoy, it is just wealth on paper.

However, as the caravan grew in size, it was inevitable that it would encounter cunning people who attempted to gain something for nothing, such as the Duke of Rose's men.

The Duke of the Rose was an influential duke in the Roman Empire, with a family fortune of considerable magnitude.

He is well-known. The reputation of his family is one aspect, but an interesting person in the family is even more crucial.

This man was called Kaiya, a real dandy who made trouble in the territory all day long, and even often robbed caravans on the road, becoming the nightmare of the merchants. There was an ancestor in the family who had just entered the realm of heaven and man, and the title of Duke originated from this.

If anyone dares to provoke Kaia, he may be close to having a conversation with God.

That day, the sun was shining brightly, and Kaiya, the playboy, once again took to the streets, looking for poor vendors to prey on.

When he caught a glimpse of the Qin caravan, he couldn't help but stop.

In his opinion, this caravan was new prey, so how could he let it go?
Kaiya and his entourage walked towards Daqin's stall. His eyes lingered on a dazzling piece of jewelry, and there was a greedy light in his eyes.

This treasure was a rare item in Rome. Kaia did not hesitate to take the jewel and make it his own.

Seeing this, the merchant immediately grabbed his wrist and warned him loudly: "What do you want to do! These are the treasures of our Great Qin. If you really want them, take out a hundred taels of gold and they will be yours!"

Kaiya laughed loudly upon hearing this: "I don't believe this thing is worth this price. Even if it is, I won't give a hundred taels of gold to you barbarians for nothing!"

Seeing that the other party was still holding on tightly, Kaiya was furious and roared: "Let go of your hand! I warn you, I am the master here, and this land belongs to me."

"If you want to fight me here, only destruction awaits you!"

When the Qin Dynasty merchants heard this, they were not afraid at all.

He knew very well how valuable the goods were and did not want the Thirteenth Young Master to suffer any loss.

So he responded firmly: "Don't think that we, the people of Daqin, are easy to bully. We have a huge caravan and the Thirteenth Prince behind us. I advise you to either hand over your money or put down your goods!"

After hearing this, the man laughed out loud: "Then I have to make you understand who has the final say here!"

"Someone, teach him a lesson!"

Then he gathered everyone together, gave the Qin man a severe lesson, and finally drove him out of the city.

Not only that, he looted all the goods in that stall!
The news quickly spread to the center of the Qin Dynasty caravan and reached Ying Heng's ears.

He examined the information, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Is the man okay? If he is injured, send him to the hospital for treatment immediately. Don't leave any hidden dangers."

Seeing Ying Heng so calm, the captain of the caravan couldn't help but worry and suggested: "Your Highness, this loss is more than 100,000 taels of silver, which is a huge sum of money. Why don't we order that team member to work overtime as soon as possible to make up for the loss?"

Ying Heng heard this and laughed loudly, waving his hand to indicate that it was not necessary: ​​"It doesn't matter, these are worthless to me. I covet gold only to plunder the wealth of this land."

"I don't worry too much about other aspects. If it's a loss, it's a loss. After all, these can be reproduced and the value is not high. It doesn't matter whether I make a lot or a little."

"What really matters is to ensure that every citizen of Daqin lives and works in peace and has a bright future. This is our responsibility, not to worry about the few hundred taels of gold. Do you understand?"

After Ying Heng's instruction, the captain of the caravan suddenly understood.

He nodded quickly and said, "Thank you for your enlightenment, Your Highness! I will work hard to improve my thinking and ensure that everything I do in the future is for the people of Daqin!"

"Very good, just do your job well. By the way, I remember that your investigative ability is quite good, right?"

"Who is the duke who attacked our caravan members this time? Can you find out his location?"

The captain of the caravan immediately sent someone out to investigate. After questioning several intelligence personnel, he returned with a piece of bamboo tube in his hand.

He reported: "Your Highness, I have found his information. Here is all the relevant information!"

Ying Heng took the bamboo tube, examined it carefully, and found that the content was detailed and rich.
