However, even if Pompianus played like this before, he did not dare to over-issue currency like Chen Xi did. After all, Pompianus is still at the level of a human being and has not yet completely gone against the will of heaven.
Those who dare to convert the money from the national treasury into physical mines, ranches, and farms are already at the forefront of the times. It can be said that without Chen Xi, this guy is one of the two people who are truly at the forefront. Liu Ba belongs to The evil boss issued excessive amounts of currency and implemented currency controls.
By the way, this is why Chen Xi looked back and thought about what Liu Ba meant by raising three fingers. This guy has done this in history. Back then, Liu Bei was messing around in Yizhou and almost collapsed the economy. After Liu Bachao issued currency, Control the currency of important officials in the DPRK.
From Chen Xi's point of view, this guy raised three fingers at that time. It was a complete twist of history, and finally he turned into Liu Ba's orbit. This guy was born with this intuition, and always felt that he would be like this in the future. If the goods are sold out and the money is taken, the locals can be exploited to death.
Relatively speaking, Pompianus is still on the right path, and since no one has walked this road before, he doesn't dare to take too big steps. To put it simply, this guy will at least put some money into the treasury. , for emergency use.
This is normal. In this era when money must be piled up in the national treasury, and food must also be piled up in the national treasury, let alone the latter. The former approach is completely inconsistent with economic theory, but it is in line with the pace of the times. , even if Pompianus had some fantastic ideas, he would not dare to test them against a huge empire like the Roman Empire.
What's more, after reaching this point, Rome's finances have become much richer, and Pompianus is one of the kind of patriots educated in Rome's orthodox education. It is impossible to take a gamble for his own vague and unguaranteed idea. After all, now It's not to that extent yet.
However, the most painful part of reality is that you have no idea how much impact your actions will have, especially Chen Xi, who is now standing at the national level. Chen Xi himself has no idea how many people's fate will be affected by every move. Know.
It can be said that before the death of Pompianus, the official history probably did not have the opportunity to squander all the money from the Roman treasury. After all, Rome would soon have a large sum of money, which would be enough for a militaristic emperor like Severus to squander it. Pompianus fell and was rich.
Theoretically, it is unlikely that Pompianus will be in that kind of embarrassing situation. After all, Pompianus has a part of the money that is completely immovable. This is similar to Chen Xi, and the amount is far greater than what Chen Xi could calculate based on scientific calculations and his own abilities. The amount is much larger, so it cannot be spent under normal circumstances. Unfortunately, this is an abnormal situation.
Pompianus knew the value of cement very well, so he had to win it, and Pompianus did not want to waste time between countries. This caused Pompianus to spend all the treasury, and even There was no time to turn around, but of course it was worth it.
History took a turn at this time, allowing Pompianus to discover the fact that after the treasury money was spent, he could actually borrow money from his own fixed assets, such as mines, pastures, farms, etc. , of course, this kind of lending is completely different from the previous kind. This kind of lending is closer to the credit lending in later generations.
Because the industries in Pompianus' hands were all well-run cash cows, and they were used as collateral for loans, not to mention his own background and the official power of Rome. Even a normal Roman citizen, there were many people who were willing to use it. Lending money to another party for collateral.
After all, a guy who can run the economy, and does it well, and can run an empire well, can he not make money if he steps down to hold an official status and provide capital for the country's operation? You don't even need the first two conditions. You can do pretty well if you have the latter two conditions, let alone a top-notch person like Pompianus.
No one will worry about Pompianus borrowing money and not repaying it. Even most of them hope that Pompianus will not pay back the money when Pompianus expresses his intention to borrow money. Just sell it to yourself, whatever the price is, you can accept it.
Not to mention the more powerful Pompianus now. Historically, Rome's economy had been running well while he was alive. Although Severus was a bit militaristic, if we really want to say it, the Romans were very concerned about the Roman Empire. , still maintaining absolute confidence.
Especially after Severus defeated Parthia, the Romans' confidence in the Roman Empire almost reached its peak. It can be said that at this time, no one would doubt that the Roman Empire would suddenly collapse, just like the world in 1990. Like the people, no one thinks that the Soviet Union will collapse.
In this case, Pompianus discovered that the treasury was out of money. When he took the state-owned enterprises he had established to mortgage loans from the Senate merchants, he didn't even mention that those people didn't know that there was actually no money in the treasury. , even if they knew it, the businessmen in the Senate would at most have the idea of earning interest, rather than the idea of taking away the collateral.
Because even if they had that idea, based on the economic performance of Rome at that time, they really didn't believe that Pompianus had no money. They thought that this picky guy was testing them.
Even if all of them are actually very greedy for the things that Pompianus does, after all, in terms of manpower and material resources, they can't compare to Pompianus who is backed by the Roman Empire. In terms of economic operation and capital operation, not counting Chen Xi, Pengpianus Pianus is either sitting back and watching, or he is actually the first, what a joke!
Crush them in all directions, why bother? Of course it’s Pompianus who is doing it, they can just avoid it. Anyway, the Roman market is big enough and there are enough people. Pompianus’s state-owned fixed assets are only after he came to power. If you do it, you won't even get a tenth of it, so just avoid it.
However, avoiding it does not mean that you are not envious. Each of the industries that Pompianus is engaged in is very profitable, and the most shameless one is the policy tilt.
If you didn't know that those are state-owned assets, and the names on the back are all the Roman Empire, the businessmen in the Senate had already thought of ways to overthrow Pompianus and divide these things. But now, the Roman Empire is dragging it, No one dares to think of stealing the country.
Therefore, after this wave of treasury was really out of money, Pompianus discovered the fact that a mine in Sajia could be used to borrow money from several businessmen, and every rich man was willing to put up a sum worth more than half of the mine. Lend me the money.
There is no doubt that the door to the new world was opened by Pompianus. Borrowing money, there is nothing to say, fixed assets are mortgaged to merchants to lend money, and the money is invested in new fixed assets as soon as it is available.
Isn’t it just over 10% and less than 20% interest?
When I, Pompianus, get the money, I will be able to earn you so much interest very quickly. After that, all the money will be earned in vain. Anyway, you are all eating interest. In this case, then these guys who make less money than me will have no money. Let me go as a mortgage and use your money to develop the great Roman Empire.
In short, Pompianus was in a great mood and embarked on a wrong path, and after discovering that the interest rate was slightly increased to 20% of the real value, and the interest was compounded, people who were willing to borrow money could be sent from Rome to the Mediterranean. Pompianus Si decisively embarked on a more evil path.
So a guy who is both a referee and a player appeared in the Roman economic system. He gave himself policy preferences and provided local protection for himself. He was simply invincible. Needless to say later, if it weren’t for Pompian Nusi has a good mentality. Even if he had the opportunity to embezzle national assets, he didn't do it. The country was afraid that it would be ruined. What's even worse is that the latecomers don't have this mentality!
After all, the great Sir Pompianus Claudius has pointed out the way. Just two clicks will be better than a normal person's efforts for several lifetimes.
Well, poor Pompianus did not let go of his great surname in the end, but instead added a halo to this surname again.
Of course, these are not things that Herodian, who is now in the Central Plains, can know. He has already paid, and just wants some kickbacks or something, such as the paper that Pompianus repeatedly mentioned. Of course, Herodian does not feel that the paper is How important it is, after all, Rome has Egypt, Egypt has papyrus, there is no need to introduce such things as paper.
In other words, this is also the reason why both Herodian and Pompianus are quite good and incorruptible senators, but the latter is much better than the former. The latter's vision is often too poisonous.
"This won't work. At most, I'll give you two tribute volumes of Shu brocade later." Jian Yong said half-heartedly. His task has been completed very well, but if Herodian still wants something else, he can only continue. After paying for it, of course Jian Yong could still accept something like Shu brocade as a return gift to Herodian.
"Thank you very much. It would be better if you could give me more." Herodian said without restraint, "Our Majesty likes your Shu brocade very much."
Severus didn't like silk very much in the past. Of course, it wasn't that he really didn't like it. He just felt that it was the same as other people's clothes and that his identity could not be revealed.
However, when Herodian asked Aristonus to go back not long ago, he gave two serious tribute horses, that is, the kind that would not go abroad and digest them all internally. They were basically tributes as status symbols. When Veru asked Aristonus to come back, he brought a message to express that he was very satisfied...
From this aspect, Severus is actually no different from normal Roman aristocrats. He also likes to show off. At most, no one has been able to poke Severus's vital points before. But this wave of tribute-level Shu brocade really pokes a hole. Now it comes to Severus's critical point. It is said that Severus has stopped suppressing seminars on silk in Rome recently. This country is probably going to end!
