The Celtics felt a little disappointed about this incident, but they didn't say anything. After all, the strength and power displayed by the Yuan family were definitely on the same level as the Dukes of Roman border counties. If they hadn't been taken over two hundred years ago, Before Caesar rubbed it in the soil, it was not a high-level dream for the Celts to get married to a noble of this level. It's a pity that both Rome and the Han Dynasty are prospering, while the Celts, the earliest civilized wave in world history, have been in decline. Now the old, weak, sick and disabled can't even add up to 500,000 yuan. I can't even get it together enough. In an era when kings rise together and kingdoms abound, what they rely on has never been the so-called identity, status, or ancient inheritance, but the power in their hands. The division of strength and weakness is directly linked to status, and the relationship between countries and between people Time is different, there is no need to whitewash it with morality, power is truth. The Celts were so weak that they relied on the charity of the Slavs to survive in Eastern Europe. What's more, this way of survival relied more on the Slavs' demand for iron tools, which itself was very important to the Celts. There is no interest. Even in the early days, the Yuan family planned to use the Celtics to give Rome as an apology. After all, the situation was stronger than the people. It was okay to give in for a while, as long as there was still a chance to stand up and fight back. The reason why we changed our attention later was because the Celts reached out and gave the team a hand. In addition, there were only three main battle legions sent by Rome, and the others were all local barbarian legions. Even though the three legions have the quality of decisive battle units, and the combat effectiveness of the Barbarian Legion is quite good, there is no pressure on already developed forces like the Yuan family. After all, the Yuan family, which has completely integrated the Slavs, can withstand these three decisive battle arms with the help of the Slavs even without using its own elite strength. After all, the three major barbarians in Europe can disgust Rome for so many years and they are not parallel imports. What's more, there are Slavs armed by the Han Dynasty. After being drunk, they will rush up and kill people without any psychological pressure at all. I don¡¯t know if I should say that this nation is born with a lack of awe, or if I should say that they like to challenge life because of alcohol. In short, Slavs like to fight after drinking. As warriors, they may not be qualified in terms of discipline, but their combat power can make up for many problems. Therefore, after much thought, the Yuan family accepted the allegiance of the Celts, and probably because they knew that they could not do anything, the Celtic female pope chose marriage. This method was widely used at home and abroad. While strengthening ties, it makes both parties feel more at ease. As for the Pope himself, he cannot be said to be an unwilling victim. Yuan Tan is actually a little hesitant about this. After all, he is different from Ma Chao, who dares to marry a foreign beauty casually. Besides, there are some other problems with Ma Chao. For example, Ma Chao's Ma family is not the direct descendant of Ma Yuan. Ma Yuan's direct descendant is Ma Rong and Ma Rixi, and Ma Rixi was still the third prince before he resigned. , although now he is retired, he still sits in a high position. By the way, Ma Rixi and Yuan Shu actually have a good relationship. In addition, in this life, Ma Rixi and Zhao Qi did not go out of Hangu Pass to appease the Kanto princes. When Ma Rixi stopped by to see Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu forced Ma Ri to stay. In Shouchun, Ma Rixi was angered to death, so the relationship between the two is still good. What's more, a very important point here is that Adela is also the princess of Armenia. Ma Chao marrying her is not an insult. Even if he returns to China, no one will say anything. If it were Yuan Tan who married the Pope, it would be a shame. Yuan's face may feel a little painful. After all, he is from a wealthy family, and being well-matched is very particular. Even if you want to marry a concubine, you have to have a lot of reasons, at least not to make the crowd who are waiting to see the excitement of the Yuan family laugh. But it shouldn't be a loss. If you can give birth to a Yuan family concubine with black hair and black eyes who is naturally angry, even if you have white skin, it won't be a loss at all. However, it doesn't When the Yuan family is flying, the Roman family is pompous. Anus was relying on Severus' huge prestige in defeating Parthia to carry out internal reforms. Anyway, the group of businessmen in the Senate were also killed. Pompianus guessed that he was on the blacklist. After all, after killing so many senators in one go, he would definitely have to give an explanation in the future. This kind of crazy thing, I'm afraid even the former neutrals have been offended. But after the matter was done, Pompianus had nothing to regret, and after killing a lot of businessmen, Pompianus had more money in his hands, and he took the cement traded from the Han Dynasty. Concrete technology builds roads everywhere, then it's time to open mines, it's time to boom business boom business. In short, by relying on this method, Rome's financial pressure was quickly relieved. In fact, both Rome and the Han Dynasty were dead in official history.?No money, but this kind of lack of money is just the country's lack of money. In addition, Pompianus' new state-owned trade management committee has completed the interception of the Han Dynasty's state-owned trade management to a great extent, so that Rome's finances actually began to improve. Therefore, although there is a group of people who are hostile to the madman Pompianus, for the sake of the prosperity of the Roman Empire, Pompianus will not capsize now. In addition, the news sent back by Herodian said that the Han Dynasty liked some kind of strange stone and sent back a group of stonemasons. After the exchange between the two parties, Rome began to mine chicken blood stone on the territory of later France. The Han Dynasty may not recognize other things, but in ancient times, the stone that could be used for sealing was very popular. However, Rome thought that this kind of thing could not be eaten or drunk, and was useless. But since the Han Dynasty acquiesced The value of this thing, well, mine it! So Pompianus quickly got on his horse and started mining, and then bartered with the Han Dynasty. The two parties quickly reached an agreement. In short, Pompianus got the silk without paying a penny, and then began to increase the price. For external sales, I took a big bite very happily. After all, he did not spend any money, nor did he give any money to the Han Dynasty. Pompianus stuffed all the advance payments from the Roman nobles and citizens into the treasury. For the Romans who had to use their fiscal revenue to buy silk every year , after this largest expenditure was eliminated, the deficit was actually eliminated. In an instant, Pompianus's interest in mining increased by ten points. Therefore, Pompianus recently sent a group of people to the Han Dynasty to study jade. Although he didn't know why this kind of thing was so valuable and why it could be linked to the price of silk, it didn't matter. As long as the Han Dynasty recognized the price, Well Rome doesn't mind multiple incomes at all. As for the lack of local jade mines, Rome said that they can also mine jade mines in other countries. This is a large amount of revenue that can solve the fiscal deficit. Dig! As long as the jade mine is not owned by the Han Dynasty, you can dig it. There is nothing to be afraid of. If you don¡¯t believe it, ask the countries next to you, these barbarians, who thinks that Rome is looking down on itself by opening a mine in their home? In short, there has been a wave of bartering recently, and Pompianus, who has determined the value of this thing, has sent people to prospect for mines. By the way, Pompianus also clearly felt that the Han Dynasty had a group of wealthy people just like Rome. Rich people go further and further on the road to luxury. Pompianus, who had no idea what seals and jade were, could only define them as luxury goods. But it was good to like luxury goods. Compared with other things, the added value of luxury goods was high. Think about it. Don¡¯t you understand why silk was so cheap in the Han Dynasty and so expensive in Rome? It¡¯s a luxury product? It¡¯s not okay to buy something that¡¯s not expensive. "Pompianus, what is this?" Severus pointed at the bodyguard Pompianus brought over and frowned and said, "What is this?" "This is our finance for this year." Pompianus Anus said with some excitement that the financial settlement was originally supposed to be at the beginning of the year, but there were many things going on this year, so it was postponed to June. "In the end, is this a surplus?" Severus didn't quite understand this, but he could see various expenditures and incomes, and then looked at the surplus column and said very excitedly. "Yes, even if we maintain a legion of 200,000 pairs of talents, we still have no deficit." Pompianus said with a little pride. He discovered that after recycling the businesses' properties, dividing the properties into those that support people and making profits in a state-run manner, and then providing a lot of policy support, the interests of Roman citizens were greatly protected. Some of it could even be overflowed and given to the barbarians participating in the war as a living security, making the barbarians want to become Roman citizens more and more. "Isn't there a deficit?" Severus licked his lips, a little excited, "Cross out all the veterans who were going to be demobilized before, and give each soldier who participated in the war two months' salary after a while. Adult citizens conducted a wave of military training. Pompianus felt as if he was struck by lightning, his eyes popped out, and he stared at Severus completely at a loss. He brought the report to Severus to prove the effectiveness of his policies. Correct, the Roman Empire was once again pulled back from the detour by himself, not to let Severus go further and further down the road of seeking death. "Well, we are giving a month's bonus to each of the auxiliary soldiers who participated in the Roman-Parthian decisive battle." Severus completely ignored Pompianus's expression. In Severus' view, since Rome's finances are completely fine, it should not disarm. Previously, the senators who actually worked in the Senate were almost trying to persuade them, so they had to agree to abolish the dual-talented army. Elite, now, Pompianus has said that the fiscal budget not only has no deficit, but also has a surplus, so what are the cuts? As a military emperor, what he likes most is a large army. Not only will it not be reduced, but it will also be expanded. Pompianus didn¡¯t even know how he got out of the palace, I¡¯m afraid Rome is going to end! Not only did they not dismantle their troops, they actually recruited them
