After all, rather than spending a lot of time thinking about solving such problems and then completing the repairs, it is easier to pull yourself to solve this problem from other future possibilities. After all, if you can do this, you don’t need to
Use your own brains.
We are a mighty Roman Empire, with three hundred elites in the Senate. Although there are many people who are just dawdling, there are always people who are loyal to the country and work hard. What's more, the summoning of evil spirits is a spell created by me, the senator of the Roman Senate. Give me a
The goal will naturally be pushed forward step by step.
Therefore, after changing his thinking mode, Pompianus felt a little relieved, but then he thought of the huge surplus of the Han Dynasty, and his head ached a little.
In fact, Pompianus did not make a mistake in his estimation. Even if he did not make an accurate estimation, according to his perspective, as well as the scale of Han Dynasty trade, the efficiency of domestic material flow, and the dividends brought by the population,
There is not much difference between the surplus of 8 billion sesterces equivalent to 56 billion to 65 billion 5 baht.
The only problem that can be said is that Chen Xi does not have an annual settlement surplus column. All income is converted into industry and invested in needed industries. There is basically no annual surplus. This is
Everything was done by Chen Xi to deal with others.
Of course, this method is fine for dealing with a layman, but it is too difficult to deal with a giant like Pompianus. Although Pompianus can't master Chen Xi's tricks, he can still calculate the statistical scale.
, in fact, there was only one thing that the Roman financiers never understood - that the financier of the Han Dynasty was operating when there was no money.
It is a very difficult situation for the country to completely balance the revenue and expenditure. Pompianus can understand many of Chen Xi's operations, but Pompianus cannot understand why Chen Xi operates the country's finances when he has no money.
.
There must be money in the treasury. Once the treasury is out of money, turmoil will occur in various places. Once the money cannot be returned on time, it will cause a chain reaction, eventually affecting the entire country, causing the value created by the previous misappropriation of treasury capital to be destroyed in an instant.
once.
This is a problem that Pompianus has been unable to circumvent. The Roman treasury must have money, and many things must be in cash. Once the money is not available, it will cause great turmoil. For barbarians and slaves, Pompianus
Sri Lanka can enforce the iron fist of dictatorship, but the citizens are the problem!
Therefore, Pompianus has always wanted to exchange and learn with Chen Xi. After all, they are friendly countries. They have traveled 50,000 miles to China, and there is no hatred between the two sides. The exchange and learning will not have a big impact. But in the current situation in Rome, Pompianus
Nus estimated that if he goes to China, Severus will probably make a mess of state-owned industries when he comes back.
In fact, the situation that Pompianus encountered was similar to the situation that Chen Xi encountered. The things they played were beyond the level of normal people in this era. The difference was that Chen Xi was dozens of steps ahead, while Pompianus might
Only a few steps ahead.
Apart from Pompianus, there is no other successor in Rome who can catch the attention of the current financial officer. Originally, this position was the same as that of the governor. As the pillar position of Rome, there will definitely be one or two reserve personnel in case something goes wrong.
There was no time to adjust.
Just like Papinian's father was followed by Papinian and Ulpian. After all, you have to be responsible for the Roman Empire. You can't leave this position vacant and the government orders can't be implemented after you rush to the street.
Originally, the quaestor also had reserves. It was actually Herodian who reserved the position of quaestor. However, Herodian, as an excellent senator, after seeing a series of amazing operations by Pompianus, compared himself with himself and determined that this
Life is not something you can do on your own.
Therefore, he clearly announced in the Senate that he was giving up this position. Pompianus, you'd better die in office. And as of now, as long as there are senators with normal brains in the Senate, even if they are related to Pompianus.
The haters all said that it was better to let Pompianus die and take office.
Because after Pompianus came into contact with the Han Dynasty, he created a Roman-style industrial economic circle. This ability was so powerful that it was really impossible to play this game.
"Your Majesty, can I ask a question?" Pompianus sorted out his reports and greeted the empty seat. Virgilio had already appeared at the door. How could Pompianus not understand that he had been taken there before?
Caesar has returned from his outing.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Caesar supported his head with one hand, crossed his legs, and looked at Pompianus with a calm expression.
"Can your Majesty see the future?" Pompianus asked flatly, while Virgilio and the Tenth Knight quickly stood where they should be. It was obvious that Caesar had sneaked away before, and this group of people chased him.
came back.
"No." Caesar shook his head and said with strong confidence, "Even if I see a tragic future, I have the confidence to turn it around."
Pompianus nodded, Caesar is always so convincing.
"How much is the surplus this year?" After Caesar answered, he looked at Pompianus' report and asked casually. He was really interested in this point, because this year Severus randomly distributed money to the soldiers twice.
Bonus, plus fourteen months' salary, and with the current scale of Rome's military strength, Caesar was a little frightened.
But then again, Severus's approach made the morale of the Roman soldiers extremely high and their combat effectiveness extremely high.
Pompianus was stunned. He didn't know that Caesar knew economics before.
"How do you know there is a surplus this year?" Pompianus asked after being silent for a while. It is said that what he did was so secretive that no one would notice it. Even Herodian, who was second only to him in Rome, would not notice it unless he looked carefully.
Verification was impossible to confirm, and as for Perennis, he was not a man of many words.
Caesar's heart suddenly jumped, but the God of War has always been unfazed by victory and defeat, so his expression did not change at all. He directly stretched out his hand to Pompianus. Pompianus hesitated and handed over the real settlement form.
Gave it to Caesar. Caesar was dizzy when he looked at the dense text on it, but he had to pretend that he could understand it and read all the way to the end, 98 million surplus?
Caesar was shocked. No wonder Pompianus ruthlessly purged the businessmen in the Senate last year and no one moved his seat. In fact, no one dared to sit in his seat. This year
How much did Severus spend? Also on weapons and equipment replacement and shipbuilding!
Caesar couldn't help but look at this descendant of his distant branch more carefully. This child was a person, and an extremely outstanding person.
"This is the surplus as of last month. After that, there will be a batch of balance trade settlements with the Han Dynasty, but the final surplus should not exceed 130 million." After looking around, Pompianus whispered to Caesar
Said, "Your Majesty, please do not let Emperor Severus know."
"Well done." Caesar praised with satisfaction. Although he didn't know how the other party did it, he had to say that he did an excellent job.
"In other words, if you are considered outstanding in Rome, the financial officer in the Han Dynasty is better than me. If this continues, I will have to find a way to continue to open up money." Pompianus sighed and said.
In fact, Pompianus also has a good open source solution, but the current situation is not clear, and Pompianus is not easy to start with.
"How about your Majesty, please give me a reference." Pompianus expressed his hesitation, "We in Rome have a large amount of sun-dried wood for shipbuilding, and we have the Mediterranean Sea, and the quantity of sun-dried wood reserves is very large.
It is sufficient, if sold to Kushan, war wealth will be gained."
"Then make money." Caesar said matter-of-factly, while Virgilio stood behind Caesar like a bodyguard.
"Kushan's naval warfare technology is far superior to ours. The other party is a real ocean fleet. You also know our side, the Mediterranean." Pompianus said helplessly, "Selling to the other party will inevitably lead to enemies.
Suspect, although we are allies, the Kushan and Han Dynasties are different."
Kushan is very close to Rome, especially if you take the Persian Gulf and enter the Red Sea. If you land in Egypt, it only takes a month. In ancient times, for a unified dynasty, a month of sending troops was not considered time at all, let alone shipping.
, the pressure on supplies is very small, and Pompianus inevitably has to consider the issue of national security.
"In this case, it is even more important to sell to the other party. We also need to learn from the other party's strengths." Caesar said openly, "There is only one reason why Rome exists, and that is that we have opponents who threaten us. We were once swarmed.
Surrounded by wolves, we were once the weakest, but precisely because of the way we learned from our opponents, strengthened ourselves, and understood ourselves, we have now successfully stood at the top of the world."
"Since you have discovered that there is something worthy of learning from Kushan, why don't you learn from it?" Caesar looked at Pompianus and asked, "Escape will not solve the problem. Since the opponent's navy is very good, then take advantage of it.
Before the other party sets their target on us, hurry up and learn and catch up with the other party."
Pompianus was silent after hearing this. He found that as a civil servant, even if he had experienced battles, there was a clear gap in thinking between him and a general and emperor like Caesar. What he had thought before was to avoid such risks.
But what Caesar was thinking about was controlling this power.
"I'll go back and check it carefully before I reply to you. This matter may really be a difference in thinking between me and the military you represent." Pompianus nodded slowly and did not respond directly.
After all, imitation learning also costs money, "I will remember to consider various issues such as the budget."
