The glory faded. Caesar leaned on the armrest with one hand, supported his head, sat on the chair with his legs crossed, and looked at the senators of the Roman Senate. For a moment, his domineering aura overflowed, shocking all the senators in the Senate into silence. Novel .
Even though no one present had ever seen Caesar in person, when they saw the man appearing in the position of dictator, most of the rational senators reacted. Who is this? He looked like Urbi on the spot.
Big bosses like An fell into coma and died young because their hearts could not bear the impact. The Roman Senate was probably going to explode today.
Pompianus' head was about to explode at this time. He had previously thought that Caesar was in the fifth or fourteenth eagle of Rome, but now it was overturned!
There are also many Roman senators who fell into a state of madness. Even if they did spread rumors that they wanted to bring down Caesar, such words were just to intimidate Severus to the rational Roman senators.
In fact, most people who are sane will not summon Caesar. The very few who do summon Caesar are mostly related to him by blood.
"Why don't you say anything? I saw that you were very noisy before." Caesar looked at the group of Roman senators below with a funny look on his face. After he transformed, he would naturally return to the position of representing the national destiny of Rome.
, and when he turned into a physical entity, he found that he was actually sitting in the position of the dictator of the Roman Senate, and the Senate was still a vegetable market as it was two hundred years ago.
"I have seen Caesar." Pompianus sighed and said. Although he wanted to erase the surname Claudius from his name, but faced with Caesar, the source of his own situation, Pompianus
You should indeed maintain a respectful attitude.
"A descendant of the Julius family?" Caesar glanced at Pompianus and said.
"Now it is the Claudius family. The Julius family has disappeared with the wind after you. The descendants of the Claudius dynasty of Julia have inherited the glory of the Julius family." Pompianus said sincerely
Start introducing the history of your ancestors to your ancestors.
It doesn’t really need an introduction. The Claudius family was doing well in Rome and is still doing well today. The reason why it seems weak is that the line that represents the direct line of Caesar was finished under Nero.
As a result, a super family has no direct line and can only rely on huge side branches to maintain itself, so that the whole family looks very loose.
But if you really want to say that the strength is very strong in action, if it can be twisted into a rope, compared with the Yuan family of the Han Dynasty, or even the Liu family, there is no obvious problem. After all, Augustus is also a member of the Julius family.
Direct line, that is, the parents of Claudius.
For more than two hundred years, this family has been integrated into all aspects of Rome, including big bosses like Pompianus who always want to cross out Claudius from his surname.
, I really want to say that the combat effectiveness is very strong.
"Oh, you look like you are really embarrassed about my appearance. There is no need to be like this. I have already negotiated with His Majesty Severus. By the way, he has already won the Rome-Parthia war, Vorogis V.
He has already died in his hands." Caesar looked at the group of senators below who were either fearful or excited, and said slowly.
The whole place was silent, and then suddenly cheered. The Roman-Parthian War also had a huge impact on these people.
"Prepare for the triumphal ceremony, as well as the coronation ceremony. Severus will inherit the legitimacy of the Julia-Claudius dynasty and all its legacies." Caesar said with a smile. Pompianus was overjoyed when he heard this, and he finally
The only thing I was worried about was the conflict between Caesar and Severus. I didn't expect Caesar to be so reasonable.
When the senators of the Roman Senate heard this, they all cheered regardless of their position or status. Even some guys who had deep thoughts and hoped to gain benefits from dividing Rome had to cheer loudly along with others in the face of this grand occasion.
"There is no need for this. My era has passed. Now is the era of Severus. He has done a good job. When he took charge of Rome's national destiny, I have already felt the twilight atmosphere of the past and the current prosperity. You have done a good job.
." Caesar seemed to have seen through Pompianus's thoughts, and explained to him with a smile.
"Don't you want to get back the power you once had?" Pompianus asked curiously, even though Pompianus knew that this was the best result, and Caesar said it so openly and honestly in front of all the senators.
Announcement means that this is already an established fact. However, precisely because of this fact, Pompianus becomes more and more curious.
"I think about it, but those people in the past are no longer there. My favorite thing back then was fighting those people in the Senate, but forget it now, it's just bullying the small ones. Besides, Severus is indeed a very good person.
Emperor, and you are also a very good financial officer, and that roll of silk is good. For the sake of telling you a piece of news, give it to me." Caesar said with a smile, he was one of the earliest silk fanatics in Rome.
.
"Hahaha, if the emperor likes it, just give it to the emperor. In fact, a batch of Shu brocades at the level of tribute from the Han Dynasty have come to the treasury. If you like it, the emperor, you can pick a few first." Pompianus said with a smile, "Sev.
His Majesty Lu is indeed very good. Apart from his interest in expanding the military, he also has a hard time raising the salaries of his soldiers."
"That is what should be done." Caesar said with a smile, "Let the glory and interests be with the soldiers, and then strictly demand the soldiers. This is a strong foundation."
"Well, I think so too, but the scale is too big. Forget it, this kind of thing is what the financial officer should worry about. I'm currently thinking of ways to open up the source. It is said that the Han Dynasty collects some strange stones. We are in Gao
There was a stone mine opened in the past in Lu, and it is said that it was a good stone for making seals from the Han Dynasty. In short, the situation has improved a lot after being connected with the Han Dynasty." Pompianus seemed to be in a good mood.
"The Han Dynasty, that legendary country of gold and silk." Caesar recalled his shock when he saw silk for the first time and couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Although it is a bit exaggerated, according to Herodian and others, it is indeed a very wealthy and powerful country." Pompianus nodded, "And their system is better than ours, although it is not very good.
I want to admit that compared to the Han Dynasty, our Roman civil system is already somewhat behind."
Pompianus is a genius, a genius in the true sense. Without the Han Dynasty as a comparison, he may never be able to discover it because of his limited vision. But with the Han Dynasty as a comparison, Pompianus clearly understood Rome.
shortcomings of the system.
Especially after paying attention to the Chinese people eliminated by the Chinese ancestors, Pompianus clearly knew that Rome had fallen into a big pit.
What's worse is that because they went too far and put too many things on the Roman civil system, they even sublimated and expanded the system equivalent to that of the Spring and Autumn people, and went on a different path through tinkering.
As a result, it is no longer possible for Rome to achieve equal rights for its people. Citizens are destined to be the foundation of Rome, and they must be superior to others!
And these superior powers are destined to be plundered from a larger number of civilians, slaves, and barbarians, which means that it is actually difficult for Rome to remain stable.
If there was no Han Dynasty as a comparison, Pompianus still believed that Rome would be stable for a long time, but now Pompianus basically has no hope at all. In comparison, the Han Dynasty has capsized.
To support the kingdom of death, if Rome capsizes, it will not be the subjugation of the country, but the entire species may be exterminated!
What's even worse is that even as a genius, Pompianus has no hope of reversing the situation. Roman citizens have too many welfares. It is precisely because of this terrible welfare that civilians and slaves
, the barbarian sharpened his head and drilled inside.
Therefore, it is destined that these benefits must never be reduced, because once they are cut, the turmoil caused will not only be turmoil among Roman citizens, but also the turmoil among the lower classes who look up to Roman citizens. In the end, it may spread and even collapse.
Lose all of Rome.
The only way to do this was to expand the size of Roman citizens so that they would have an absolute advantage against civilians, slaves, and barbarians.
However, the number of six million citizens has already made Pompianus exhausted. If it continues to increase, even if he racks his brains, he cannot do it. If he does not do it, Rome will capsize sooner or later, and once it capsizes, it is very likely that it will capsize.
Can't climb back again.
After understanding the situation, Pompianus was almost walking on thin ice, so he made up his mind to kill the Senate merchants. For no other reason than to continue the destiny of this country, he would nationalize all the industries of those big merchants, and then
Raise more Roman citizens, allocate resources more rationally, and create more citizen positions.
Only in this way can the Roman Empire go further and further on the road to survival. Pompianus didn't know who to say these words to, because he really didn't know who should be responsible for such a major matter besides the emperor, and
Now Caesar is at least someone to talk to.
Pompianus, who had been keeping these things in his heart and causing himself to become obviously aging, informed Caesar of these things in detail at this moment.
Caesar listened silently. He could not solve it, or the matter itself could not be solved. Rome's problem was no longer a system problem, but a problem of the maximum number of citizens that the upper limit of productivity could accommodate, and this problem
It will still be a problem a thousand years from now.
