Chapter 535 536. Aspasia
After listening to Forbes' rather proud narration, Phidias couldn't help but nodded frequently.
In today's world full of myths and legends, it is quite attractive to occasionally listen to the gossip in the market.
La En poured cold water on Fu Bai.
"After you beco the leader of this group of waifs, you have to find so long-term work for them. It is better not to do things like stealing sailors, otherwise the people in charge of port managent will not be able to tolerate you. Those sailors co ashore There are taxes on prostitutes and gambling, but you don't."
Fauber seems to have never thought about this problem. After all, she is just a little girl who ca out of Kefalonia. At present, she seems to be a little hard-working girl with outstanding social skills.
Then, what should we do?
Fu Bai even put down the bread and fish soup, and asked Lan En anxiously, waving his head.
Why are you so nervous? Lan En said matter-of-factly. "This is very simple for you."
"Um?"
Fauber showed a puzzled expression.
The sa goes for Phidias next to him.
He is not even a local in Athens, so he doesn't know how a group of street children can easily find work that can provide them with food.
"You may not have noticed yet, Fubo. You and the dozen or so children you have entangled with are already an organized group. For this reason alone, you are better than many people."
"You can summon a dozen children. Although most of them have little strength, they can still do many things that require manpower, are impossible to do alone, or are very troubleso."
"How many people do you think those small businessn who set up stalls in the market can call for help by shouting with all their strength? Five or six would be a lot. The first gangster I beat down when I ca to Athens, Its hard to say if there are not thirty of them in total.
The number of people you can unite is your advantage, Fu Bai.
Lan En spread his hands and said easily.
Also, do you rember what I told you?
What is that? The Waif Intelligence Team?
Fubai thought drowsily.
When you beco famous, there will be people who understand how valuable intelligence is and co to you. Just wait and see.
"That's what you want to say." Fu Bai tilted his head and thought for a while, as if he suddenly rembered sothing.
"Today, there was a person who greeted after seeing our actions. He said that if he was free, he could go to her."
I ca here when I saw you in action for the first ti?
Lan En was a little surprised. He was surprised that this man seed to have a sharp vision.
"Is 'she' a woman? Going out alone? It's not easy to find an unaccompanied woman on the streets of Athens."
Shes still very beautiful!
Beautiful? How beautiful?
Lan En did not expect that when Fu Bai described that person, his first reaction was that he was beautiful.
Let give you a reference, how about a comparison with Cassandra?
After asking, Lan En found that Fubo, who had always admired Cassandra, seed hesitant.
"About the sa?" she said hesitantly, "Aspasia's style is different from Cassandra's."
Aspasia?*2
At the dinner table, two ns questions rang out at the sa ti.
Phidias and Lann looked at each other, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.
Aspasia, the lover of Pericles, the governor of Athens, but also an important adviser on his road to power.
It is said that Pericles had many speeches that were enough to be included in textbooks, and the manuscripts had been modified and corrected by her hands. If she is such a character, then it is understandable that she can imdiately realize the potential of this group of street children in terms of intelligence.
Then do your best, Fubai.
Finally, Lan En made a summary for the little girl at the dinner table.
"If you can be appreciated by her, at least you will not have to worry about food and drink in the future. Don't stop training either. I will have to go outside Athens frequently in the future. You have to pay attention to the progress of your training."
Huh? What are you doing outside Athens?
Hide and seek in a cave with a group of perverted murderers. Its really a headache to think about.
After hearing this, Fu Bai's excitent in his eyes quickly subsided and he beca well-behaved.
Oh, then youd better deal with your own head.
Lann then tore off a piece of barley bread and threw it on Fubo's head.
It took Kassandra nearly two months to arrive at the Port of Piraeus in Athens after parting ways with Lane Forges.
She jumped off the Adrestia lightly, and another man who looked to be in his forties or fifties, but in good spirits, wearing a hood and shawl, was walking down from the wooden planks protruding from the ship.
That was Herodotus, an old acquaintance of Barnabas.
When he and Cassandra and his party were going to et the Oracle, they t on the road lined up and had a pleasant conversation.
With his wonderful experience and extensive knowledge, he was able to be hosted by Cassandra and returned to Athens together.
Yes, back to.
Because Herodotus was also serving as Pericles's staff at this ti.
The road to Athens from here is already very different from when Lan En first arrived.
Kassandra looked towards the direction of the Acropolis just like when the witcher first arrived.
On this two-mile road, there has always been only one pronade facing the sea, like an arm stretching out from the city, tightly holding the nearest coast below and the pier there.
Masons and slaves gathered here, placing the last stones on the two strange walls erected on both sides of the walk. The chisels in their hands were tapping rhythmically with the work at hand.
Co, rcenary. Herodotus walked along the trail, beckoning Kassandra to follow him.
The two walked along the trail, and the long wall beside the road cast a pleasant shade for them.
There was an old beggar there, muttering to anyone who would listen: "Shouldn't the Trojans, the Hittites, and the Assyrians be a lesson to us? Great walls will surely attract powerful destroyers." "
This statent is not new.
Kassandra thought to herself.
At the sa ti, she noticed how crude the walls beside the walkway were.
This wall was basically built in a hurry. The quality is very poor and the materials used are also very poor. They are just paving stones, gravel, and the remains of beams and columns.
Putting it in the sa picture as the temple and acropolis in the distance is a bit unsightly.
This is the Long Wall. I discussed this plan with Pericles when I left Athens. It seems that there has been considerable progress now.
Herodotus introduced to Cassandra.
It is ugly indeed, but as a stopgap it is quite good. The Spartans are not good at sieges, and this wall will protect the Athenian harbor from threats.
"Are you saying this is a strategy you and Pericles ca up with?" Kassandra said thoughtfully, "What's the glory in this approach?"
Glory? Ha, you are indeed a Spartan. Herodotus smiled.
