Chapter 7 Fathers' Countermeasures (1)

"She believes that she has a high status and can violate moral norms and can do anything that can make her happy." - Patculos commented on Augustus's debauchery.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

These entries by Julius Caesar were carefully discussed with friends such as Li Bida. Caesar was a governor of power in Far Spain and was very clear about the tax system. He knew how much earthquake would be caused in the Senate once he issued this jurisprudence, but who cares? Caesar was different from other consuls. When entering the Temple of Concord, other consuls were always trembling when entering the Temple of Concord, for fear that if he accidentally crossed the restricted area set by the elected fathers, he would encounter the consequences of "not feeding". But Caesar was different. Before he was elected, he knew that the Senate did not like him at all. Once he had the chance, he would definitely persecute him. Therefore, he had no fear or gratitude for the Senate. He also saw through the fierceness of these guys in robes. If the struggle was within the political framework this year, I would have a pain to fight with the six hundred elected fathers!

Public officials are not allowed to accept gifts from Sethts, who are more than 10,000, which greatly increases the difficulty of the veterans in bribery and accepting bribes. Caesar's decision was not flexible, and he just drew the red line with a tense expression. You should know that in terms of law, the middle and senior public offices in Rome are a kind of honor and have no salary income. Therefore, in order to maintain a luxurious life and to have a greater room for growth in the capital chain, it is impossible for them to not accept "gifts" from the sheltered people and the knights.

In the case, Caesar also said: Ten thousand Seths retreated, which is equivalent to the thirty years of military salary income of an ordinary legion soldier. Whoever dares to cross this red line is not negotiable to dismiss the office or remove him. In addition, Caesar did not just do this superficial effort. He asked the provincial governors to publicly post taxpayers' lists and books, banned usury, and recovered the right to share taxes and tax collection, which was to curb the governor's "behavior" of corruption in the province, and to cut off the corruption of these high nobles and officials at the source.

In short, if this proposal is passed, Caesar will naturally understand that the people of the states and provinces love him, and the guys in the Temple of Concord hate him.

When hundreds of angry veterans waved their fists and spitted down from all directions like showers, Caesar stood quietly in the middle and bottom of the patio, but asked the opponents to make legal refutation if they disagreed with the proposal. After whispering with several chief veterans (formerly known as the respected special father), the second-level consul Bibruce made a serious motion to object to Caesar:

"Dear Lord Julius. I support your morally to purify the public servants' team, which is also one of the chronic diseases of the Republic. But you should know that the people who can pass the appointment of the 100-person citizen assembly are only provincial chief executives (i.e., governors) and financial officers, but the person responsible for specific tax collection is what we usually call tax collectors, most of them are knights. I think you know more clearly that most of the so-called taxes in the treasury are not paid by provincial people.

, In fact, they are the full deposit paid by tax holders before going to the province - yes, tax holders first pay the deposit to the treasury in exchange for the provincial tax holders' right, and then go there to run the right to collect taxes, so we have to make the tax holders profitable, otherwise the treasury will inevitably be empty. I think your proposal is too ideal. Although it may eventually be decided at the Tebres People's Congress, I personally represent the Senate's special father and take the lead in rejecting your proposal. Sorry."

After listening to Bibruce's counter-argument, Caesar politely raised his left hand, "Even if my proposal is not approved in the Senate, I still have to explain that I have not damaged the interests of the Knight taxpayers. I have an additional plan, that is, to reduce the deposits paid to the treasury when bidding, reduce one-third of the deposit, and abolish the debts of all the Knights who failed to pay taxpayers before. In this way, I believe that the enthusiasm of the Knight taxpayers will not be reduced." As a result, the uproar was even louder. Although the senators in the treasury did not dare to get the money blatantly, the threshold for the Knight taxpayers' bidding was lowered, which means that their filial piety will also drop significantly. In addition, the red line of bribery for ten thousand Seths in the Caesar's proposal made them unbearable. Caesar is openly an enemy of the Senate! Yes, openly an enemy!

But Caesar was not afraid of them at all. Instead, like the Roman envoys provoked the city-state of Carthage, he lifted up the hem of his robe, squeezed out two groups, and said to these veterans very arrogantly: "Please vote on my precept, everyone! If I pass it in the Temple of Concord, I will post the Akuta of the related matters in the Grand Square. I believe that the people will agree with your wisdom. Then this precept is just a precept. After I step down as the consul, I will still have the opportunity to abolish the changes. But if you are unwilling to vote, I will submit this plan to the Tebresians' meeting in accordance with the 'Holtiansiusfa' and let the whole citizens of Rome vote. At that time, this precept will no longer be a short-term law, but a permanent law."

Holtiansiusfa was established more than two hundred years ago, in order to abolish heavy debts, Rome civilians set off a huge riot. The civilians who revolted occupied a hill on the right side of the Tiber River. In the end, the Senate and the nobles had to make concessions and urgently appointed a civilian named Holtiansius to serve as the "Dickito", or the dictator. Holtiansius announced that any proposals related to debt laws in Rome must be passed by the Tebres Association to take effect to fight against those nobles who were unwilling to resolve their debts by relying on privileges.

Later it evolved to say that once the consul's plan was not approved by the Senate, he could submit the plan to the CPC for a vote by the civil servants' protection officer.

This is the **naked war provocation, the **naked.

Caesar clearly stated that he was not the one who was willing to be fed, he only liked to fight for food with his fangs.

At this moment, the entire temple of Concorde could no longer be controlled. Some people were angry, some people questioned loudly, and some people seemed to be in a dream. Cicero tried to calm himself down first. Caesar sent Li Bi to his house before, and Gan Yan was still vivid in his mind. Now isn't it time for him to resolve the conflict between the Senate and the Caesar Party? Cicero stood up, walked down the seat and stood in front of Caesar, and turned around and shouted to the veterans: "Dear everyone,
Chapter completed!
