Chapter 3546 Like a mentally retarded
"The cost is still calculated?" Ma Chao looked desperate, "Don't there be one such thing that counts one, and they are all armed? One more point of battle is one point."
"It's useless to tell me this." Tachito said with a smile, "I'm envious."
Ma Chao nodded. As a cavalry legion, how could Ma Chao not envy the other party's mount? Seeing the opponent's top war horses 1.85 meters high, and then look at his top Arab horses who broke through the historical limits due to the alienation of the essence of heaven and earth and reached 1.55 meters high. Ma Chao silently deleted the two words "top".
From now on, this war horse is no longer worthy of being called a top war horse, and this is the top war horse on the other side.
"If you work hard to achieve three talents, the financial officer will definitely equip you with it." Tachito said with a smile. "This is the war horses prepared for the council guards when they were heavy cavalry. Now they are free-range. As long as the cavalry army has advanced three talents, they will be approved for use. To be honest, these war horses are really edible."
"If you think you can't afford it, you can sell it to me." Ma Chao said without any moral integrity, "I want it too."
"It is impossible to arm you, but if you only need a small amount, it should be fine." Tachito thought for a while and said, "At present, we are only qualified to use it with the Tenth Knights, but you know that they do not ride horses."
When Tachito said this, Ma Chao had already constructed the tenth knight riding an ostrich flapping his wings in his mind, which was simply eye-catching.
"What's going on in Italy recently? You've come back from Yuan's house. Are you going to the legions you mentioned?" Ma Chao drooled and changed the subject. He was afraid that he would look at Tachito's war horse again, so he couldn't help but rob.
"Yes, that's the two of them, but I think they have problems with both of them. Is there really no problem with so many people?" Tachito couldn't help but look blue when he thought of the 12,000 people of the 4th Lucky Legion and the 18,000 people of the 2nd Parthian Legion.
"Who knows, if there is a problem, it doesn't matter to me." Ma Chao said indifferently, "Is there any other fun in Italy?"
"Recently, His Majesty Severu seems to be thinking about economic issues." Tachito looked up and looked into the distance, followed Ma Chao to the place where he rested in Midia, explaining the Italian story to Ma Chao as he walked.
"I'll just listen to it as a joke." Ma Chao mocked. Severu understood economics, so Rome was afraid that he would have to vent himself.
"Although you said something too much, it makes sense." Tachito nodded. In fact, the entire Roman Senate had the same idea. Now they are asking Severus not to commit suicide. Pompianus, who is responsible for the Roman economy, wants to die even more.
"What is the new economic policy? Will it increase our salary, or will the salary of soldiers increase, or the overall military expenditure increase?" Ma Chao asked casually. The traditional art of the Severus dynasty he had in Rome for so many years was to increase salary for soldiers.
The rewards of Roman soldiers are higher than those paid by Chen Xi to the Han soldiers. You dare to believe it!
"It seems that because His Majesty Severu went to an undercover investigation before, he found that the country's economy was developing steadily and the people lived and worked in peace. After increasing the salary of the soldiers, the soldiers had the money to buy more things, and then the people of Italy became richer." Tachito didn't understand this very much, but Tachito roughly knew what Severu said.
Ma Chao was confused about this. He only knew that Severu would continue to pay money, and Rome would definitely be done.
In fact, all the senators in the Senate think so, only Severu himself doesn't think so. After Severu was convinced by a group of senators using this theory, he did not increase the basic salary to the Roman soldiers for about a whole year.
This year, Severu couldn't bear it anymore, so he paid out his own money to the soldiers of the Roman Empire. After the payment, Severu went to the market to take a look and found that not only did the country not lose people's livelihood because of the fact that he gave more money to the soldiers, but the country was even more prosperous.
So Severus believed that raising wages to soldiers was beneficial to the national economy. Although he didn't know how this conclusion was investigated, when Severus read out his investigation report in the Senate, he didn't know whether the Senate was crazy. Anyway, Pompianus was crazy.
I finally managed to relied on trade balance and state-owned industries to protect the national economy. You came to make trouble for me again. Did you see that there was a deficit, such a big deficit. Although I created it, no matter how you investigate it, it will be a deficit. Please be an individual.
Severus did not understand the economy at all, but he could see the reality. The reality is that the Roman economy is getting better and better. Spending money himself is beneficial to the happy life of soldiers and citizens. So Severus said that he would once again increase the average salary of Roman soldiers.
As for the deficit, Severu doesn't understand this. In Severu's opinion, the deficit is just a deficit. Anyway, the country's economy is obviously improving, and the people are willing to live in peace. The books are red. The reality is very good. Why do I have to look at the books? I can't understand them anyway.
Severus's theory of gods killed Pompianus, and even Severus said more effective words - the deficit seems to have no effect on reality at all. I think Rome has been much better in recent years than when I was just here, but the books are indeed fake.
Although the process was messy and the logic was chaotic, Severu still came up with the correct answer. Yes, the books were fake.
Of course, Severus said this just casually, so he didn't care about the accounts, and it didn't matter what the account book looked like. Anyway, except when asking for military expenses, Pompinanus always had no money. At other times, Pompinanus always seemed to have money, and even if he didn't have money, he could borrow money.
Severus is not a fool. If the treasury had not been able to run horses every day, Severus would have intercepted Pompianus' money as military expenses. Unfortunately, isn't it impossible to intercept? Especially after the professionals of the Severus faction did not find the money in the end, Severus finally realized that I can't give money to the soldiers first. Pompianus would settle it for me.
So the Senate is now crazy, and Severus proposed a salary increase plan again. Pompianus's deed can get a silver coin and you will win. Then Severus proposed to send his own money first, and then the treasury repays the debt. Pompianus almost spit out an old blood.
In short, this matter is very collapsed now. If it were other emperors, they would definitely not be able to do such a thing. However, it has become a tradition to pay the soldiers with his own money. In the official history, Severu has also done such things. This is just a reappearance of history.
Why was the peak of the military of the Roman Empire during the Severus period, not during the Five Sages. It was impossible for an emperor who gave his own treasury to his soldiers without his life to support him.
But this is very fatal to Pompianus. If Severus pays his own money and waits for the treasury to collect the accounts, it will be really fatal, and his own plans will be over.
Of course, Pompianus could also make fake accounts and continue to let the treasury have no one except a little risk reserve, but Severus always revolves around his workshop, which made Pompianus feel very heartbroken. The other party's intentions were obvious. If I couldn't get the money, I would barter.
This is shameless, but it is very legal.
In this case, Pompianus was very passive. He now needed a new skill, which was to fool Severus into using money to do business, and then the immortal jumped and evaporated all Severus's small money. However, this was unrealistic. No one could evaporate the money of a guy who was the military commander and the emperor.
Therefore, when Tachito left Rome, Pompianus was still very miserable. Fortunately, the potential would be stimulated when people were forced to force themselves. After being forced to force themselves by Severus, Pompianus finally burst out with inhuman wisdom.
Although it is not very complete, Pompianus and a mathematician performed detailed calculations and made a financial product that looked very excellent.
Only a part of the money Severu invests every year. In the future, this part of the money will not only be returned to Severu, but will also generate interest. The treasury will inject assets of the same scale as military expenditure in batches. It can be said that Severu only needs to invest money to benefit all soldiers, and he does not need to invest as large-scale as it is now.
This financial product successfully attracted Severus's attention, and many veterans were also very interested in this. Pompianus silently wiped his sweat and barely escaped. As for whether it could be done, Pompianus looked at the mathematical model he made, it should be fine. No matter how miserable it is, it will not be so bad that Severus will directly send money.
"Tsk, this is really good." Ma Chao smacked his lips twice and said with emotion, "By the way, where are you going this time?"
"Of course it's Pamir. I'm ready to meet the group of people from Chiyang Hou. We had a good fight back then, but we were thrown away by those guys. Now we're caught up with you. It's not OK to not meet you." Tachito said excitedly. After all, in the beginning of the battle between Rome and Rest, Tachito and Li Jue started to fight.
Ma Chao looked up and down at Tachito, and looked at him as if he was mentally retarded. You are now running to the Pamir Mountains with this cool look. Isn’t that a meat bun hit a dog? Isn’t it because he goes there without going back?
"What's your look?" Tachito said dissatisfied.
