Chapter 3824 The problem with this piece...
Military management is more strict and more efficient in most management methods, but relatively speaking, military management is more binding and contrary to human beings' free and casual personality.
However, this is a feudal society. You choose one of the two to eat and freedom. Of course, the people choose to eat and eat. Freedom cannot be used as food. What's more, all freedom is limited freedom, so that Chen Xi is of course militarized management in order to save trouble.
The Ministry of Works under Sun Gan's name said it was a state-owned construction group. In fact, it was fine to call it a militia. No one had any experience. The most complete management policy of large-scale groups with reference experience was of course a military camp in this era.

Therefore, at the end of the second and early third centuries, the large state-owned enterprises established by Chen Xi were basically deleted in accordance with the militia regulations. Large state-owned construction groups like Sun Gan, and even had a certain queue to train every day. Otherwise, why would Chen Xi feel at ease to let Sun Gan deal with local chiefs in the mountainous areas of western Sichuan who were not convinced by the royal transformation?
These people cannot defeat the regular army, so there is absolutely no problem in changing their armor to fight chores.
If all of these are counted, let alone two million or five million, these people cannot be transferred at will. These are the core forces that Chen Xi truly ensures the stable operation of the industrial chain. If the war really fights until it needs to be transferred, the people's livelihood in the country will definitely be in decline.
Huangfu Song didn't know these, but Huangfu Song knew Chen Xi's collection of other treasuries. Huangfu Song was not sure about other things, but the standard chain mail he collected was definitely more than 600,000. Well, this was calculated by Huangfu Song in the treasury near Yecheng.
In Huangfu Song's opinion, it is fine to arm a 1 million army of 600,000 armor! In cooperation with other mixed legions, two million legions can be collected by the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, when he said this, Huangfu Song had some emperors who heard the people say that they were using a golden shoulder pole, and they used it, yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes, and yes, and were just perfunctory.
You really underestimate our Han Dynasty. I didn’t brag about it for you, Chen Zichuan gave me logistics, and I can promote these guys opposite you together!
"Cailor, we must arm the two million troops..." Severus asked habitually. Pompianus, who was standing, turned black and fell to his seat. His son and his prospective daughter-in-law quickly reached out to support him. Severus curled his lips unhappily, and I asked, but before he finished speaking, you pretended to be dizzy.
"Okay, don't be difficult for the financial officer. It's not easy to maintain the current legion steadily." Caesar rarely persuaded him. Even he thought that the scale of Severus' legion was too outrageous. The Roman Eagle Banner and the Barbarian Army combined were more than 300,000. This is a permanent army, but they all need food and wages. It's good that Pompianus didn't strike for you.
"We need to build two more eagle flags and six auxiliary soldiers." Severus replied habitually, and Pompianus, who was pretending to be dead, jumped up directly. Didn't we agree to build only one eagle flag and three auxiliary soldiers of the barbarian army? Why did it double?
"The eighth one doesn't count. You still need to give citizenship to the returned brave men, and then give them the Eagle Flag origin, so you will have another twenty-three Eagle Flag and three auxiliary soldiers?" Severus explained to Pompianus very seriously.
Severus was really good to Pompianus, at least he explained it. If it were someone else, I am the first citizen of Rome, explain it and execute it!
But it is not good for Pompianus, and Severus is not stupid. He just gave the soldiers higher food and salary because of his background and understanding the difficulties of the soldiers. This does not mean that he does not know how high the food and salary he gave is.
The military expenditure of the Five Sages was instantly ruined by Severu. Without the timely allocation of funds from the financial officer, Severu might really need to pay out of his own pocket like the official history.
By the way, this is why Severus' era was the pinnacle of Roman military.
As an emperor, when the government could not fulfill its promise, he paid everything out of his own pocket and plundered back from the Battle of Rest. The part of the emperor belonged to him was used to distribute rewards to the soldiers in the next ten years, except for the construction of new buildings.
It doesn't matter whether such an emperor is supported by the Senate or not. The soldiers and the legion commander really support him. After so many deaths, Karakara can pass on Severu's foundation in the end. A large part of it lies in his father's reputation among the soldiers in the school.
In this life, Severus could carry out the food and wages grants granted by the soldiers smoothly while maintaining the normal operation of the government. One important point was the listing trade between the Han Dynasty and Rome, which greatly solved Severus' military expenditure.
Originally, Pompianus's idea was to build silk to curb the infinite appreciation of silk, because in the first century, Rome's expenditure could reach or even exceed 100 million Sesters every year due to smuggling silk from various channels.
This expenditure was enough to support twelve to fifteen full-formed eagle flag corps. Yes, it used to be the military expenditure of twelve to fifteen full-formed eagle flags.
Now I understand why Pliny Old cursed in the Roman history he wrote. To put it off topic, even if he cursed, Pliny Old man wore silk himself, and it seemed that it was still red.
This is a problem that all the aspiring people in Rome had complained about, but no one could solve it. After the rise of Persia in the late official history, the price of silk was inverted with gold. Simply put, it was a pound of raw silk and a pound of gold. The Romans also endured the mentality and continued to buy it.
While scolding that those who buy silk are traitors, they are investing in the enemy, while continuing to buy silk.
Therefore, at the beginning, Pompianus's purpose was very simple. He was to negotiate with the manufacturer directly to achieve the best production technology. If he couldn't do it, he would not let the channel blackmail.
After calming the channel merchants, Pompianus reduced the price of silk to one-third of the original, and later agreed again, hitting a quarter.
This price made the Romans very satisfied. They couldn't resist the collapse of the Roman demand. What was lost was the previous price of silk at the lower and middle level, the top and tribute level. After it was dispersed, Rome spent more money on this area every year than before, because Roman citizens also joined the shopping game.
If Pompianus hadn't found a replacement quickly and paid purely with gold and silver coins, Chen Xi's interest in trade with Rome would have plummeted.
However, the Roman financial officer was excellent here. He learned new operations from national trade and naturally developed a trade balance.
This is also an important reason why Severu has been fooling around for a year and Rome has not only not gone bankrupt, but also has a surplus. The trade balance is good for both sides.
By the way, the things with the largest trade volume between Rome and the Han Dynasty are actually no longer silk and jade. These two things are more equivalent to luxury goods. The main products shipped are sugar, olive oil, wine, vanilla, sweet rosin, myrrh resin, frankincense, dried fruits and so on.
It seems that it is not very profitable. In fact, these things are shipped very large, and the nature of the trade is equivalent to a period of transshipment, and both parties are quite satisfied.
However, no matter how satisfied it is, and whether you can leave more than 100 million yuan in your hand every year, Pompianus is still very boycotting Severus' approach.
Even because of Severus' boycott of money, Pompianus learned to invest money in the industry as soon as he got it.
However, because this move was discovered by Severus not long ago and was intercepted in advance, the Ninth Spanish Legion and the Seventh Loyal Legion had the money to change their war horses, Pompianus was forced to develop new skills.
That is, before I get my money, I first borrow money from others to invest in the industry I need, and then wait for the money to be born and asked him to take it away. I don’t believe you can still intercept it!
To be honest, at this point, Pompianus is really just about to hit. Unfortunately, Pompianus's thinking may never be able to change, because once it changes, Pompianus will first find that he has become the biggest cancer in Rome.
Therefore, the two sides are stalemate over military expenditure recently. Pompianus has started to borrow money to develop the Roman economy. Since this happened before, other veterans did not think there was any problem. At most, they thought they should be careful and not take too much. In the end, Pompianus and Severus joined forces to cut leeks and other things.
But Seville thought that I had already allowed your daughter-in-law to be the commander of the legion. Isn’t it very appropriate for you to join the Eighth Legion and three auxiliary soldiers? The extra money from the Eagle Flag Legion is the military expenses you allocated to me before.
Pompianus said that the first time I saw such a shameless guy, he broke his understanding of the first citizen of Rome again and again. He was shameless and too shameless.
Huangfu Song looked at it for no reason and started cursing. Then Caesar crossed his hands and supported his head, as if he didn't know that the market had become behind him. He continued to chat with Huangfu Song in a calm expression. As for the Roman Senate, it was necessary to pay attention to fairness and justice. Isn't it normal to curse? Fights happen from time to time.
There is no way. Now the senators in the Senate support Severu and there is no special behavior to be dealt with. Therefore, they can only solve the problem in the form of voting. Everyone is a citizen. We must respect the citizenship law and vote!
