"My dear, I have to tell my mother about this, you don't have so much money to pay these people, it must be a conspiracy. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info those of your peers who want to crush you and kill you. ”

Coming in from outside the villa, Tertila said anxiously and worriedly. However, Appis did not want to expand the matter, did not want to expand its influence. Originally, it was only an economic dispute, but once Seville was brought in, it was a political struggle. Perhaps this may have been a trap set by his political opponents, who were aiming for more than just money.

"No, Tertira, there's no need to tell your mother, I can solve this matter myself, but I still have a way to deal with it. Also, the reason why I don't want you to tell your mother about this is because the burning of the large warehouse in Parutia is not a trivial matter in itself, and I guess even if we didn't say it, your mother would have known about it a long time ago. And I just don't want her to be involved in this. ”

Appis said, couldn't help but clench his fists, obviously, this is the biggest economic crisis he has encountered, this is a premeditated and prepared raid, just like the enemy sneaking up on the high ground on the battlefield, Apis lost the initiative at the beginning of the war.

"Then how are you going to pay them these three huge indemnities? If you pay separately, you still have time to prepare, but all three huge policies need to be paid at the same time, and you simply don't have enough assets on hand to pay them. ”

Tertila then asked worriedly.

"Collect all the loans I have in the field, and then I will ask for help from Crassus the Younger, and borrow him 150,000 dinars to pay this compensation in advance, and if it is not enough, I will go to Fabius, the construction of the Copilla Theater, and I can ask him for a part of the construction of the project, and after this part of the funds is raised, the gap will be about the same. Then, through the normal guarantee business, this gap can still be plugged, but these days, our days will be more difficult. ”

Faced with Tertilla's worries, Apis said. And it was again a coincidence that he was able to escape this catastrophe, because ordinary Roman nobles could not have a deep friendship with Crassus the Younger, and Fabius's work was not so simple that it could be paid in advance, if it were not for the fact that Apis and he had been friends in trouble on the battlefield. Yes, if it were someone else, under such a blow, the Iris Guarantor Agency would completely disappear in Rome.

But Appis decided to straighten his spine and resist the past.

Then, in order to show that he would never break his promise as a guarantor agency and keep his promise, Apis ordered Klein to gather all the nobles in Rome to attend on the day of the payment of the insurance money, and solemnly held a payment meeting in the civic market square. Let the news spread throughout the city of Rome, and let the civilians come too.

Of course, Caesar will also know that it is only Apis who did this, which did not damage Caesar's reputation, on the contrary, it strengthened Caesar's image of fairness and justice in the hearts of the Roman people, because everyone knew that Apis and Caesar were a community of interests. Instead of relying on the army and administrative means to suppress this turmoil, Apis faithfully fulfilled his promises, which was bound to attract the admiration of the people.

……

"Appis, this wild dog has paid the loss of the great nobleman Uritila in full, two hundred and fifty thousand dinars! That's enough to build a racetrack, and I didn't think he managed to make the fortune! ”

"Not only that, but after this payment, the trust of the people in Rome has doubled, and the orders of the Iris guarantee agency have doubled compared to previous days. Yes, we almost squeezed him to death on the path of the insurance industry, however, the beast that was squeezed to the edge of the cliff let out an even more terrible howl, and at this rate, he would soon recover from the blow. This bastard. He was almost crushed to death in the mire. ”

Soon after the fire, Appius and Caderus learned of the aftermath of the incident, and in front of them was Appis after the blow, more smug than before the blow. For his guarantor, the Iris Guarantor, had won the absolute trust of the Roman people through this matter. Caderus and Appius couldn't figure out how Appis could raise such a terrible amount of reparations in such a short period of time. It's just that they ignored an extremely important detail, that is, Apis's network of contacts, yes, Crassus Jr. and Fabius, fought side by side with Appis in the Gallic War and the Roman Civil War, especially Crassus Jr., as the son of Licinius Crassus, the former richest man in Rome, 200,000 dinars is nothing to him, even if he wants to pay all for Apis, Crassus Jr. will lend it out without hesitation. Not to mention that Appis only borrowed 150,000.

"What's even more terrifying is that Appis has already begun to send someone to investigate the matter, and yes, a fool can tell that three fires in a row did not happen by chance. Because the guarantor of these warehouses is the same institution, the Iris Guarantor Agency opened by Appis. We have to figure out for ourselves the way back. ”

Caderus reminded.

Appius, on the other hand, felt powerless, for Appis, who had recovered his strength, with his intelligence and ability, would eventually investigate the cause of the incident. Coupled with the previous hatred, Appis, who has become the senator of the Roman Senate, will definitely take revenge on the old hatred and the new revenge. At that time, he will face the horrific capital punishment.

Escape from Rome?

Appius thought of such a plan, but on second thought, such a plan was self-defeating. Because during the investigation of this matter, if he fled Rome, he would be telling Apis that he was the mastermind of the fire. But don't sit still.

"You can turn yourself in to Appis, Appius, well, I've thought about it, and that's probably the only way to go."

Caderus said.

"No, then he'll kill me on the spot."

Appius jumped up almost immediately and retorted.

"No, you take your wife Anelka, I heard that during the civil war, your wife Anelka, that is, Apis's mother, once persuaded Apis to disobey Caesar's orders and delay the march outside Athens, such a big thing, Apis will do it for his mother, not to mention that now, this matter is not as important as the military order, but only caused a loss of economic interests, with Apis's weak character, I believe you still have a chance to live."

"It's you! It was you, you who instigated me to plan this incident in the first place, but now, you let me bear it myself. I will shake out your sins. ”

Appius angrily accuses Caderus of selfishness. However, as an original ally, Cardrus only returned coldly-

"Whether you want to do what I say or not, you have no choice, the people are sent by you, and Apis can only find you in the end if he wants to investigate, this matter has nothing to do with me, my friend."
