In the evening, Cristoya came to Davers's tent, heard about the daytime incident, and based on her knowledge of Davers, she said, "Do you want to annex those mercenaries?"

"I really want to help them," Davers said seriously.

"Really?" Christoya smiled, her plump breasts pressed against Davers' strong chest, raised her head, and her sexy red lips were erotic.

"Really." Davers lowered his head, suddenly held his soft and wet lips, and sucked hard.

This kiss ignited the desire of both parties. Davers reached out and picked up Christoya...

At this time, Martius's voice came from outside the tent: "Chief, Mercis and Mariji are going to see you."

Davers whispered, and with a bad face, he was about to say, "I won't see you!"

Cristoya smiled and hit him, saying, "It must be important to let Melsis and Marigi meet you, two somewhat contradictory people!"

Davers knew she was right, so she let go of Cristoya helplessly and kissed her on the mouth twice unwillingly.

Cristoya pushed him away.

Melsis and Mariji entered the tent, and saw that there was Cristoya in it, and they didn't care at all. The intimate relationship between Davers and Cristoya had been an open secret in the entire army, and then they explained their purpose to Davers directly.

It turned out that just when the soldiers started to build camps, Melsis and others were not idle either. No, it should be said that the Turiyi was not idle. Although Turiyi prohibited mercenaries from entering the city, the Greeks were a famous business-oriented nation. When they heard that mercenaries came, merchants and vendors ran to the old city of Sobaris to see if there were any business opportunities. In addition to the food provided by Turiyi, the mercenaries also needed other daily necessities, so the two sides met.

The trade was only one-way at the beginning. The Turiyi people were the seller and the mercenaries were the buyer. But soon, Melsis discovered that these Turiyi merchants were very interested in some things in the baggage camp. On the way back, the mercenaries not only robbed women and slaves, but also robbed a large number of gold and silverware and some artworks, such as strange spice wood carvings, exquisite gold statues, exotic ivory carvings, etc. They were originally intended to take them home in the future, which could be used as decorations, as well as evidence of boasting. Although a lot of them were lost due to constant battles along the way, some were still preserved.

For the Turiyi merchants, thousands of miles away from Persia, these objects from the Persian hinterland and some unheard races were very exotic and made them feel very novel. They immediately realized that these things were valuable and expressed their intention to buy them.

Mercis was not a fool, so of course he could not sell it at a low price, not to mention that some things did not belong to him, but were placed in the baggage camp. He thought about it and decided to go to Mariji first, because only Mariji, who was also a Persian, could clearly explain their origins and cultural meanings and values.

However, Mariji gave him a suggestion: Why not set up a market, which is managed by mercenaries, and trade with the Great Greeks, and maybe even taxes can be collected.

Collecting taxes on land in other countries?!Melsis thought this idea was too crazy, but he couldn't resist the temptation of money, so he simply came to Davers with Mariji.

Building a market? Davers thinks this idea is good. It can not only meet the needs of mercenaries, but also be a place to expand the influence of mercenaries. It can also understand the market conditions of the Great Greek, cultivate a mercenary business team, and collect intelligence, search talents... etc. From the perspective of mercenary leaders, Davers, who is rooted in the Great Greek purpose, is naturally much more comprehensive and in-depth than Melsis and others.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the idea was wonderful, and he nodded immediately and said, "It is OK to build a market. I will let the soldiers build a market between the east outside the camp and the coast tomorrow. Mariji is responsible for the construction of the market, but we don't have much time, so don't build it too complicated, just use it. After it is built, Mariji is also responsible for its management and operation..." When Davers said this, Mariji was excited.

Davers reminded him: "My requirement is that the market can be simple, but it must be orderly, ensure fair transactions, and be tidy, expand the reputation of the market as much as possible, and attract more merchants from other city-states to come here to trade. As for tax collection, don't think about it. I don't want to cause the unhappiness of Tuliyiren, but you can think of other ways, such as asking slaves to help transport goods, provide cheap slurry... etc., and even if the market flourishes in the future, you can still charge shop fees."

Mariji nodded repeatedly and praised sincerely: "Chief, I didn't expect that your wisdom in business is also amazing!"

Davers smiled slightly. These ideas had long been shattered in the industrial age. But since he gave Mariji a promise, this guy got into the state very quickly. Do you really want to be a business officer?

Davers turned to the somewhat depressed Melsis: "As for our dealings with the Great Greeks, let me take responsibility."

"Okay! OK!" Melsis was happy again.

"Don't move the things that the soldiers store in the baggage battalion, unless they are willing to sell them, you must sign an agreement with them. In addition to charging a small handling fee... Well, you have to negotiate with the owner, but it is best not to exceed one fifty of the property sold, and return the rest to the owner. Don't hide or embezzle! Marigi, you are responsible for supervision!" Davers seriously instructed Melsis.

"Davs, you are too partial! One fifty is too little, at least one twenty! It's not that easy for us to sell things. How much verbal spending in standing in the sun for half a day..." Melsis muttered aggrievedly.

"Twenty is too much, at least one thirty-fifth, that's it!" Davers was too lazy to continue arguing with him: "Instead of making money from soldiers, you might as well think of ways to increase your trade projects and expand your source of wealth!"

Hearing this, Melsis fell into thinking, and soon there was a smile on his fat face: "The ** of the baggage camp comes from some races in Persia and Armenia, and many people have also learned the massage skills of the medical camp. It is definitely a novel experience for men in Greater Greece. We can place an elevated price..." Melsis's cheerful voice was interrupted by Cristoya's cough.

Discussing the flesh-like business in front of the woman, this guy... Davers said with a laugh and cry: "I can give you an idea. The doctors in our medical camp have a high level of medical skills. And there are no major injuries in the military camp now, and they are idle. It is better to let them open a clinic in the market they built to collect money for medical treatment. You can discuss the details with Christoya." Originally, there were eight doctors in the medical camp, and two left when they left Byzantium, while the six doctors led by Herps continued to stay in the medical camp under the strong attraction of the so-called mysterious medical knowledge inspired by Hades taught from the so-called modern medical knowledge (actually the basic medical knowledge in previous lives) that Davers taught from time to time (actually the basic medical knowledge in the past life).

When she heard Cristoya's name, Melsis, who had already had his eyes glowing, looked bitter.

Cristoya did not make things difficult for Melsis. This fat man seemed easy to bully, but Cristoya understood the importance of him to Davers, so she seriously discussed with him about opening a clinic and how to distribute the medical fee, but made a request: I hope Melsis would not force the women in the baggage camp to be *******

Melsis yelled at the wrongdoing and said, "Most of the women in the baggage camp were stolen by soldiers along the way back to Greece, and a small number were slaves from the baggage camp who needed to take care of the pack beasts and manage the items. Only a dozen were real ***s. They were used to making money with this...this method."

"I'm afraid there are more than these people." Mariji interrupted.

Note: In ancient Greece and Roman times, there was no percentage, but at that time, business was developed, and merchants and even ordinary citizens were good at using scores to complete contracts and transactions. However, for the sake of reading convenience, we should try to use percentages to express them in the next chapter.
