Hearing his daughter's words, Hannibal immediately asked:

"What oriental items?

Quickly take it out and show it to me. "

He just got it, and there was a threat from the east, and now his daughter said that he bought an item from the east, which naturally made him extremely sensitive.

Seeing his father's appearance, Tannett couldn't help but said with some doubts:

"Father, don't you have something to go out?"

Hannibal showed a wry smile at this time, and quickly said:

"What my father wants to do happens to be related to Dongfang. Why, are you familiar with Dongfang now?"

He never expected that he would hear news about the East from his daughter.

You must know that he doesn't know much about China.

Hearing this, Tannett was obviously a little excited and said:

"Father, you don't know that there are many novelty things on the market in recent years, all of which come from the East."

"Daughter, my favorite is silk and porcelain from the East. Those silks are smoother than a baby's skin. Those things called porcelain seem to be made by gods.

There are also many small and exquisite toys. "

Tennett talked about his experience in detail.

After Hannibal finished listening, his expression suddenly became extremely complicated. He did not expect that the shadow of the East had already arrived beside them.

So asked:

"Are all these things obtained from Eastern merchants?"

Since these things are here, there must be a caravan coming.

He didn't find it surprising that those businessmen would do anything for money.

But Tannett shook his head and replied:

"It's good that these things come from the east, but because of the war, no merchants from the east came here directly.

They are all resold, so they are very expensive. "

"Daughter, the things I bought this time cost a lot of money."

Hannibal came back to his senses at this time and quickly asked:

"What did you buy?"

Tannett showed a smile and said:

"I'll take it right away, father, you will definitely like it."

After speaking, he quickly left here.

Hannibal frowned slightly. From this point of view, the existence in the east was indeed extremely powerful.

Otherwise, their merchants would not be able to go very far.

Because this world is extremely cruel and realistic, without the support of a strong motherland, even ordinary people will be bullied when they go outside.

And in a strong motherland, even if ordinary people are alone, if others want to bully you, you must take your identity into consideration.

Just as he was thinking, Tennett came back with a wooden box in his hand, and said with a bit of coquettishness:

"Father, look, this is my pocket money for a year, plus I said a lot of good things in exchange for it."

Hannibal showed a smile, and the other party's small thoughts naturally couldn't escape his eyes, and he replied with a bit of affection:

"I see, I will give you the money."

Only then did Tennett smile and open the wooden box.

Hannibal was stunned when he saw the contents in the wooden box, because he didn't recognize the contents at all.

It was a square thing, a little rough to the touch, and there were some square symbols with a strange beauty written on it, which seemed to be some kind of writing, but he didn't recognize any of them.

When I picked up the thing directly, I found that he had many single pages, which were fixed together with hemp rope.

"Is this a book?"

Looking at this strange thing, Hannibal said with some hesitation.

Of course he knew about books, he had quite a few at home, but each one was very thick because they were all made of sheepskin rolls.

And it has a strong smell, and it is easy to attract mosquitoes.

The book in his hand is extremely thin, but a little fragile.

Tannett nodded excitedly at this time and said:

"Father, the businessman said that this is a book of poetry from the East, and it is called poetry."

"There are hundreds of beautiful poems in this little book."

"It's a pity that I can't read the text, but the businessman told me one,"

Tennett pointed to a poem and said:

"Beautiful birds sing in the small state in the middle of the river. A virtuous and beautiful woman is worthy of the pursuit of a handsome and talented man."

Tannett slowly spoke the poems he heard from the businessman, and he couldn't help but yearn for the artistic conception described in them.

After slowly finishing speaking, Tennett was intoxicated for a long time and couldn't extricate himself.

No matter who it is, it is always impossible to refuse good things.

Seeing this scene, Hannibal's expression became more and more complicated.

Looking at the short poem in the book, I couldn't help but ask:

"It's just a few lines of words here, does it have such a wonderful artistic conception?"

Tennett nodded, and said with a bit of yearning:

"The businessman said that these characters are called Chinese characters, and each character has extremely rich meanings, and the artistic conception that can be conveyed when they are together is even more irresistible."

"It's a pity that I don't know it. I must find someone to learn this Chinese language. One poem is already so beautiful, and the other poems must be the same."

"Father, you said that a country that can create such poetry, what kind of place should it be?"

Hannibal took a deep breath at this time, he knew that those Romans should not have lied.

Because these words can be used to create poetry, they can also be used to record.

And civilization is passed on like this!

Even if it may not be strong for a while, with the accumulation of time, a civilization with inheritance must be strong!

But now, a powerful civilization has become his enemy, which is not good news.

Soon, Hannibal said:

"Tannett, go collect more information from the East. It's best to see if you can find someone who knows these words."

If you want to understand a culture, you must understand the language of the other party. I only hope that it is still too late.

Tannett immediately nodded with great joy. With his father's support, he can buy the things he wants in a fair manner.

Looking at the cheerful back of his daughter leaving, Hannibal felt a burst of sadness in his heart.

That powerful oriental civilization has begun to expand outwards, but its own country is still huddled here and lingering.

Even Rome can't compare, because the opponent actually has the heart to let him be the coach, and Carthage has begun to decline.

Fortunately, soon, Hannibal regained his strength. He is a general, and it is his bounden duty to fight for his motherland!

And it happens that ~lightnovelpub.net~ can use this opportunity to consolidate and improve its own status.

Facing this eastern existence, he must become stronger!

Soon, Hannibal glanced at the east, and left here with a firm expression.

Ten days later, in the field outside the eastern border of Rome.

In the hearts of countless Romans, the brutal and **** barbarians gathered together with serious expressions, forming an extremely large team.

But the faces of all the barbarians are worried, because in the distance, a large army is slowly approaching!

After more than ten years of fighting, they already know the banner of this army,

That's it, Han!
