Roman Slave Owner

Chapter 183 Gathering in Rome

Cough...cough...

It can't be said that it is to satisfy someone's small desires. Of course, as the fourth power besides the separation of powers, the importance of newspapers is mainly known to future generations.

"Books need to be printed, and newspapers need to be produced. Tell me, do you want to do it or not?"

Levi said.

Most of Li Wei's subordinates are people who wield knives and guns, and Serapio has the highest level of education. Otherwise, he would not have hired Serapio, a second-rate lawyer, as the editor-in-chief.

Serapio thought about it carefully. Out of a politician's intuition, he felt that the newspaper should have a huge influence.

If this influence is used well, they can even manipulate the candidates for the consul.

"I did it, when will it be released."

Serabio said.

"It will take a while, I have already written a letter to Dragon City, those craftsmen will come to Rome soon."

Levi said.

His ideal printing place is the Vatican, where he not only wants to garrison troops, but also serves as another villa for himself.

Greece, after the ravages of Sulla, Athens gradually recovered its vitality.

There is a very famous academy outside Athens called Plato's Academy, which is the most famous institution in Greece and even the entire Mediterranean. I don't know how many nobles and celebrities have studied here.

In the academy, after reading Sura's letter, Filo was shocked.

They actually made it out, and they were made out by Sura, which is simply unbelievable.

"Director, are you going?"

Someone asked worriedly.

Filo was very old and in poor health, so he couldn't stand the long journey.

"Go! Of course! How can you not go to such a grand event?"

Philo said firmly, maybe the secrets of the whole world will be unraveled by the microscope, how could he not go?

In the city of Athens, Antiochus, the chief lecturer of the Epicurean school, said to Cicero: "Cicero, are you a Roman?"

"Yes, teacher."

Cicero said respectfully that after finishing a very famous lawsuit in Rome, he had to go to Greece to study.

That case involved a freedman of Sulla who had usurped the estate of a Roman knight for a very low price.

Cicero helped the Roman knight win the lawsuit, but he also offended Sulla, so he had to go into exile in Greece and study philosophy by the way.

"I heard that Sura developed a microscope and proved the existence of microorganisms. He asked us Greek philosophers to send someone to visit. Would you like to go back with me?"

Antiochus said.

"is this real?"

Cicero couldn't believe his ears. He had heard of Li Wei's point of view before, but he didn't expect that they would actually make it out.

This is definitely a discovery that is enough to subvert the philosophy of the entire world. Perhaps Roman philosophy can surpass Greek philosophy by this.

"yes."

Antiochus said.

Cicero hesitated for a long time. Now that Sulla has abdicated, there should be no great danger.

"Okay then, I'll go back."

In Rhodes Island, many famous philosophers also set off for Rome.

In the Vatican, Li Wei was busy with newspaper matters.

As editor, Serabio also recruited several journalists, including his former friend Appius.

Philosophers from Greece and elsewhere had already arrived in Rome, and they flocked to the Roman Academy to see microscopes.

The results surprised them, because they actually found some microorganisms on rotting meat.

And the deputy head of the park, Duilius, told them that with the power of the microscope, cells and atoms will be discovered sooner or later.

Inside the Levi Grand Hotel, a top hotel in Rome, this is a three-story hotel with extremely luxurious interior decoration.

The most important thing is that there is not only an open-air swimming pool outside the hotel, but also large pieces of glass inlaid on the walls.

Since the practical production of large pieces of glass, Li Wei did not sell a large amount of this glass. He really supplied a small number of nobles and knights, and everything else was used for his own industry.

This grand hotel is one of them.

The Greek philosophers were stupefied with astonishment when they first saw the glass windows.

The sunlight shines directly into the room through the glass, making the room extremely bright. Compared with those houses that have to rely on the patio for light, it is simply heaven.

It is precisely because of this unique large piece of glass, coupled with some business ideas of later generations, that the Levi Hotel Chain has become the most famous hotel in Rome.

Although the price is exorbitantly expensive, there are still a large number of customers visiting every day to experience this unique sunny life.

At this time, those Greek philosophers could no longer care about experiencing this wonderful life, and they got together to discuss anxiously how to deal with this situation.

"What should we do? I heard that two days later, the Roman Senate will award Li Wei the medal of the Great Roman Philosopher, so who will take us seriously?"

said a philosopher.

The Greeks are proud, even a little racist. They think that except for the Greeks, all other races are barbarians. Even Plato thought the Greeks were different from other races.

Although the Romans conquered Greece, Greek culture firmly ruled Rome. The Romans were proud to study in Greece. Even Scipio, who defeated Hannibal, was a fan of Greece.

The Greeks have always joked that Rome has no philosophers at all, but now the Romans have proved their own philosophy. This proof will threaten many schools of Greek philosophy, which makes many Greek philosophers restless.

"It's true that his theory is too harmful to us."

said a Milesian philosopher.

The Milesians are mainly divided into three schools, one of which believes that water is the beginning of all things, and the other believes that air is the beginning of all things. Air exists in the bodies of humans and animals and constitutes their souls.

Of course, now it seems that these are all nonsense.

"I don't think we need to be so worried. He didn't fully explain his doctrine. I heard that he was a prophet of a sect, which means that he recognized the existence of the soul."

Said by a Pythagorean philosopher.

Levy's theory may conflict with them, but the conflict is not that great.

For example, the Pythagoreans believed that the soul is immortal. The soul exists not only in humans, but also in animals.

Many Pythagorean philosophers forbade eating the flesh of animals of all kinds, lest they eat the body inhabited by a fellow soul.

"Actually, I think his theory is very reasonable and should be strongly supported."

An atomist philosopher said, no need to ask, it must be a follower of Democritus.

Many philosophers glared at him,

It can be said that the atomists benefited the most from this turmoil. Everyone knows that Li Wei is a supporter of the atomists, although his theory is somewhat different from the atomists.
