Seeing that the senators in the Senate had reached the point where they were slapping the table to show that they would kill each other when the emperor came back, Pabinian and Ulbian said that they could not ignore this matter. Who made them the judges?
We can't let these guys make such a blatant threat. Novel .
"Enough of you, this has risen to the level of a threat to life!" Pabinian was the first to attack, let's just make a noise. If the quarrel has reached the level of a direct threat to life, don't we treat our judges as human beings?
, and more importantly, we are still face to face.
"It was Pompianus who was making trouble to kill us!" A group of senators who were arguing and scolding Pompianus finally came to their senses. After looking at each other, they decisively threw the blame away.
"Just wait, I will kill you all when His Majesty comes back." Pompianus' chest swelled with anger, and then he slapped the table and roared.
"Your Excellency, Financial Officer, if you continue to act like this, you will be held responsible. Don't say nonsense." Ulbian stood up helplessly to calm the anger of both parties. As judges, they have many things to decide, "Okay.
Come on, both sides calm down, this is the Roman Senate."
"For the sake of Your Excellency, I'll let you go and wait." A group of people have now figured out that Pompianus will not increase the rate of return at all, and there is no point in wasting words here.
Big, but still very angry.
"Just wait, I will go to the magistrate to sue you later!" Pompianus was unreasonable and turned to greet Pabinian, "You said that after everyone's contract is completed,
, they wanted to change the rate of return in the contract, and a group of people surrounded me and asked me to force me to change it. Is it illegal? Papinian quickly arrested this group of criminals. "
The corner of Papinian's mouth twitched twice. The power of the Roman high official was not low, but look at the two groups of people banging the table and scolding each other. Save it, he, the high official, can only coordinate when he goes in.
If you really want to deal with it in accordance with the law, forget it, it's just nonsense.
Although it is very meaningful to maintain the fairness of the law, when it reaches this scale, Pabinian only wants to say one thing, the political forces represented behind you are competing with each other, and I will collect the body of whoever capsizes the boat.
The fairness guaranteed by the law is only fairness within a certain range, and there are things that the law cannot decide.
"The Senate has been very lively recently." Capitonus, who was leaning back on his chair, looked at the commotion ahead and couldn't help but shook his head and said.
"It's normal for wealth to move people's hearts." Tirpicianus, an old senator watching the excitement, also shook his head repeatedly. "Pompianus didn't look angry. He completely gave up on himself and the person opposite him.
The crowd was shouting at each other."
"There is nothing we can do about it. Both sides are very resentful now, but in fact you can also see that that group of people dare not touch Pompianus. After all, the other party is constantly getting money. Once Pompianus is taken away,
If Nusi was overthrown, many people's financial resources would be cut off," Kapitos said with a smile.
"Yes, Pompianus also has nothing to do with that group of people. Those relatively calm guys actually also hope to get more money." Tirpicianus sighed and said, "To put it bluntly,
It’s all about spending money. In fact, I’m very surprised. At that level, their money is almost just a number. Why do they continue to save so stingily?”
"I don't know, anyway, I think I'm living a good life." Capitos said nonchalantly, "But Pompianus is indeed very powerful."
"I also admit this. Among the previous quaestors, Pompianus is definitely the most powerful. Speaking of which, I have experienced many quaestors." Tirpicianus said with a smile, beginning to miss him.
My own eighty years.
"It's just too noisy." Capitos sighed, and the other party nodded.
"If you do this, the Foreign Trade Silk Administration established after the trade with the Han Dynasty in the second half of the year will increase the price of the silk of you bastards!" Pompianus began to threaten again. There is no way that one person can't scold him.
Hundreds of people.
"..." There was silence throughout the whole process, as if they heard something strange.
Pompianus said with a dark face, "You heard me right, I have negotiated with the Han Dynasty, the price is about one-third of the previous price, but if you continue to make trouble, I will buy it from you bastards."
Double the price!”
"You have no right to do this!" the senator below yelled on the spot.
"This is one of my responsibilities. Please read clearly that the full name is the Han Dynasty Trade Management Association. It is listed under the name of the financial officer. I am fully responsible for it. If it is a state-owned enterprise, it will increase the price for you. If you make trouble again, you will
Go buy smuggled silk!" Pompianus took out a sign from nowhere, raised it, and pointed to the location facing the Han Dynasty Trade Management Association and said.
"This has not been evaluated by the Senate! It cannot be passed!" A large group of senators began to criticize Pompianus for his dictatorship and failure to comply with the Senate's review rules.
"Look clearly at these four words 'state-owned trade' and these five words 'trade with the Han Dynasty'. I have brought them out for you to review before, but the trade involved is all in my name." Pompeian
Nusi found that the opponent's momentum had been sprayed down by him. This killer move was really useful.
"You are committing fraud. We demand that the Senate review system be restarted. The dictatorship will not allow it!" A large number of Senate elders yelled.
"It's weird if it doesn't pass the review. I am ultimately responsible for everything that is state-owned. Please read these two words clearly!" Pompianus continued to complain, even pointing at the sign and swearing angrily.
"You are robbing money. How can you raise the price at will? The Senate is responsible to the Roman citizens!" The senators in the Senate were going crazy at this time. Didn't they say that they can only have pricing power after the fight is over? How come Pompianus
Now that we have obtained the pricing power, as for saying it is fake, does it make sense to say that this kind of thing is fake?
"I am already responsible for Rome. See clearly that the average price is one-third, and it is silk of this level!" Pompianus took out a roll of high-quality brocade from the big gift box, "I am now
When you go out, you can tell the Roman citizens that they only need to work hard and in two years they can cut out a silk suit like this. If the Roman citizens are satisfied, who do you think they are?"
"We are also Roman citizens!" The senator was dazzled by the brocade of Pompianus. In the past, the price of this thing was equal to the same weight of gold. Now it has been cut off by two-thirds. What is business?
, this is simply the first choice for saving money!
"We must enjoy the same prices as citizens and cannot discriminate. Prices must be treated equally for all Roman citizens. Papinian, I want to impeach the quaestor for discriminating against Roman citizens!" On the spot, someone pulled the judges who were watching the show into trouble.
At this time, the judges who were eating melons were also confused. They said before that they would kill An Anxi to gain the silk pricing power. Although everyone thought it was true, they really didn't expect that the price could be reduced to one-third of the previous level, and
Still this level of silk!
An astute person like Papinian had already realized at this time that Pompianus was afraid that he would get back not only the pricing power of silk, but also 80% of the silk grade, and according to what he said before,
Maybe all the Roman citizens could have one.
If you think about it this way, Pompianus's words, Roman citizens are satisfied, and you are the elders, your words are inexplicably touching.
"Okay, okay, calm down and let the financial officer finish. With this state-owned asset as a guarantee, you don't have to worry about not being able to pay back the money," Pabinian advised.
Is this true? The Romans' enthusiasm for silk was universal. If Pompianus could handle this, the problem of owing money would not be a problem.
"So I'm in a hurry. The worst I can do is pre-sale. I'll get the money first, then invest in development. I'll just pay the deposit to Hanshi and send it over. I'll lend you the money to give you face and let everyone make money together. You bastards are kicking me in the nose."
You're embarrassed, right? One slap and two are scattered, one slap and two are scattered!" Pompianus looked angry.
After saying this, the senators below were stunned. Most of their heads did not turn around, but they quickly realized that this was not misappropriation. However, if you think about the possibility, it is really possible. The state endorsed one-third of the purchase price.
Silk, please pay first, and wait for the silk to be delivered. I’m afraid those people present can’t help but pay first...
Okay, I successfully poured a basin of cold water down. Pompianus was also thirsty. He found that his mind went very fast when he was spraying with others, and then he pre-sold this. Pompianus really planned to do it.
The reason for doing it is very simple, to defraud money.
Rome was actually not poor, but the deficit was relatively large. There was still money accumulated by the Five Wise Emperors in the treasury. Spending it was not a big problem, but there was no way around the deficit. Who asked Severus to open such a big budget?
It would be strange for the legion to have no deficit when it comes to fighting for peace. Unless the financial officer is replaced by Chen Xi, it can maintain so many retired professional soldiers and develop stably at the same time.
Although Pompianus is already strong, he is far behind Chen Xi, so how to make money, how to balance the balance of payments, or more simply, how to reduce the deficit has become very important.
Therefore, pre-sale is an idea that can make money, even if it is just an idea that can make money for turnover, it is also very important to Pompianus. As for whether the Romans would scold him, certainly not, the state purchases on a large scale, and the price
The price has been reduced to one-third for you. Only Roman citizens can purchase it. As one of the citizen benefits, you are just asked to pay money first. What else do you want?
To put it bluntly, purchase restrictions and pre-sales are one of the rules of Rome's state-run trade. If you don't agree, don't buy it. I want to see if the Roman people will pay!
After successfully subduing a group of people, Pompianus was about to take a drink of water and rest, but at this time a beam of light fell down and appeared in the position representing the dictator.
