- Chapter 36 - The Venom of Devouring Heart
After bringing the twenty Spartan slaves to the camp where the first batch of ten Spartan warriors lived, the first batch of ten Spartan warriors were shocked.
Only one but suppressed the riot of twenty slave warriors. Is their master a being like God?
But when seeing that everyone of them covered their stomachs, or their hands and feet, the first batch of Spartan warriors couldn’t help but feel a trace of sympathy in their hearts. At the same time, they also felt lucky that they didn’t get such a heavy hit when they met Ye Tian for the first time.
After Ye Tian gave these new spartan warriors an admonitory lecture, the two groups of people harmoniously lived together soon. After all, they all came from Sparta . When chatting, they would find that someone actually were their distant relatives.
Thirty powerful Spartan slave warriors were a military armament that was not weak, plus soon he would become the new noble, moreover, there were still the supports of Caesar’s family and Aurelia’s family. Ye Tian thought, it’s time to go on his business plan and to start frantically absorbing money in Rome.
Such as running a luxurious restaurant!
Before that, Ye Tian had studied that although the Roman food in this era had some special style, the luxurious restaurant still did not appear. In the bazaar, there were some restaurants, but the scale was very small and the surroundings were very dirty, the Patricians and rich men won’t go there to consume food and waste money.
That’s because, the socials or banquets of the Patricians in ancient Rome were usually carried out at their own house, and were very luxurious. There were also a lot of female slaves to serve.
Perhaps because the Romans used lead tableware all year round, their gustation began to decline. Because they liked the foods with stronger flavors, but there were few spices in that age.
Indisputably, when Ye Tian brought all kinds of delicacies to his restaurant in the future, it would definitely go viral in the whole of Rome and become the characteristic feature of the city of Rome in a short time.
This plan, Ye Tian had been brewing for a long time. Before that, because no powerful backer supported him and no power protected his possessions, he didn’t dare to implement it easily.
Indisputably, in this era of slavery, without power and force, the people could only be arbitrarily bullied by others.
Ye Tian had already foreseen that once his business got hot, he would definitely attract a lot of flies, even vicious dogs and tigers. Ye Tian naturally had to be prepared to slap flies, hit evil dogs with sticks, and slaughter tigers with knives.
What was the strongest slaveholder?
Without the wealth equivalent to that of one entire nation, how can it be called the strongest slaveholder !
When Ye Tian ruled the economic lifeline of Rome, he would be the uncrowned king of Rome!
“Master … That Patrician, who was tied by us yesterday, will we give him some food and water? He is almost dying …”
After Ye Tian stopped thinking, a Spartan slave warrior came to Ye Tian’s side and asked quietly.
“Didn’t you give him water to drink?”
Ye Tian asked in surprise.
“Master, water is extremely precious. Without your command, we would not dare to give him……”
The Spartan slave warrior replied respectfully. Rome had been dry for two consecutive months, so water was very precious during this period.
“Alright, you guys are more ruthless than me. But at least, you should let them eat some food and drink some water. As long as they won’t starve and die of thirst!”
Ye Tian said lightly, then walked in the direction of Glaber .
“Let me go …”
“Please, let me go, I dare not again, let me go!”
“At least, you should send a letter to my family to redeem me ……”
At the moment, Glaber was in a very bad state, giving Ye Tian a feeling that he will die at any time . When seeing Ye Tian , Glaber immediately became spirited. because his hands and feet were tied up, he could only crawl and struggle on the ground.
His arrogant arrogance had completely disappeared, and he begged hard to Ye Tian. The voice was very hoarse and weak, presumably last night he had been shouting for an entire day.
“Give him water!”
Ye Tian calmly said to a Spartan slave, the Spartan slave soldier hurriedly handed him a bowl of water.
“Drink slowly …”
Ye Tian’s voice was very gentle, even personally feeding him water.
” Purr , purr …”
Glaber was so thirsty that he desperately drank the water in the bowl.
“Thank you … let me go, I will never revenge you …”
After getting rid of his thirst, Glaber continued to beg Ye Tian, as pitiful as he can best.
But the pitiful must have the thing to be hated.
If it wasn’ t for Ye Tian having some power and background, yesterday, Ye Tian would probably have to kill him and then only choose to run away from Rome.
“Do you think I believe you?”
Ye Tian slightly smiled, the eyes flashed a trace of cold.
“I can swear …”
Glaber hurriedly said sincerely.
” Patricians’ oath, worthless!”
Ye Tian sneered.
“How can you believe me …”
Glaber was about to cry.
“I want you to be under my control!”
A trace of ambition flashed through Ye Tian’s eyes. Glaber was a cowardly wimp, but such a person was easier to control.
After that, Ye Tian opened the panel of the shopping mall of the system. And there were rows of exchangeable goods, various cold weapons, various crop seeds, various recipes, various styles of clothes, buildings design, etc.
The current appearing goods was the level one goods.
Even so, there were still some high-grade goods, but it was also within the scope of Ye Tian’s understanding.
The Venom of Devouring Heart, and the corresponding antidotes.
If those who were poisoned by the Heart-Devouring Venom don’t obtain the antidote within a month, the worm within the Heart-Devouring Venom would awaken and begin to bite the person’s heart, causing them to writhe to death.
Although this Heart-Devouring Venom was rare, it still hadn’t reached the level of mysticism. Ye Tian had heard of it in his era, that in some ancient mountain villages dwelled witches who can concoct the Devouring. They’re just not as well-known.
The Heart-Devouring Venom and antidote was very expensive, and even needed 300 trading vouchers. Ye Tian had been in this world for more than a year, but he only saved a thousand trading vouchers .
However, Ye Tian still decided to exchange it.
Killing Glaber was definitely impossible. After all, Glaber was also a noble. If a noble was killed, the thing would really be a bit serious. It was better to control him. Anyway, Glaber was a wimp and cowardice, he definitely wouldn’t dare to suicide.
“What do you want to do?”
Seeing the wicked smile in Ye Tian’s eyes, Glaber ‘s eyes flashed in panic.
“Eat it, and I will let you go back, now?”
Ye Tian said with a smile, then opened the hand, inside was a black pill.
“I do not……”
Glaber hurriedly refused. But when he opened his mouth, Ye Tian directly threw the pill into his mouth, and then pressed his mouth, feeding him using force.
” Purr !”
Instinctively, Glaber swallowed it down.
