Roman Slave Owner
Chapter 140 Asking for Accounts (I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year and all the best)
At the same time, strengthen the authority of the Senate, increase the number of senators from 300 to 600, and all jury members must be senators, etc.
When he completed the reform, he voluntarily resigned from the post of dictator.
So he is actually a complex politician with ideals, which is much better than Caesar who wanted to be emperor.
After leaving Pompey's residence, Li Wei found that he seemed to have nothing to do.
At this time, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be someone who still owed him a debt.
Anyway, if you are free, you might as well go to collect debts.

What are you doing? Get out of here! I tell you, Caesar is not at home.
A woman's angry voice came from a traditional Roman-style single-family house on the second floor.
If you say you're not here, then you won't be here? Who do you think you are? I've already shown mercy if I didn't catch you. Don't get in the way here.
Then there was a scream.
Led by an enthusiastic Roman citizen, he arrived at Caesar's home.
Before entering the house, I found some enthusiastic people eating melons looking inside.
Give way, give way quickly, don't get in the way.
One of Levi's personal guards dispersed the overly enthusiastic audience and opened a way for Levi.
As soon as he walked in, Li Wei found a beautiful woman in her thirties in plain clothes lying on the ground, and several women were helping her up.
Some soldiers were rummaging around the house cursing and messing things up.
Excuse me, are you Aurelia, the mother of Gaius Julius Caesar?
Li Wei asked politely, and at the same time secretly complained that the later generation Xue actually used her name as one of the three sisters of the Windrunner, how really...
The woman stood up and looked at him in panic, Are you also here to arrest Caesar?
A girl who was about the same age as Li Wei looked at Li Wei indignantly. If Li Wei hadn't brought a large number of personal guards, she might have scolded him a long time ago.
Li Wei felt embarrassed for a while, why does he feel like a bad guy who bullies orphans and widows now.
No, I'm Caesar's friend, and I have something to do with you.
Li Wei said with a smile.
You are……
Luchius Posius Livi.
Levi said.
Hearing this, everyone was startled, and even the soldiers who were rummaging stopped.
Li Wei's name is known to everyone, and everyone knows how Sura's generals came here.
You and him are friends...
Alleria looked puzzled, she had never heard that Caesar and Li Wei were friends, and this should be Li Wei's first time in Rome, how could he know Caesar.
Are you really Levi?
one of the soldiers asked.
Does anyone in Rome dare to pretend to be our Patriarch? Get out of here quickly.
A centurion under Li Wei said.
The soldiers glanced at each other, did not dare to argue, and hurriedly left here in despair.
Please come and sit inside.
Alleria said very politely that he helped them anyway.
Then you're welcome.
Li Wei followed them into the house, Aurelia and the young woman sat down, and the other servants served them some pastries.
After being polite, Li Wei asked, This is Cornelia?
Yes, I am Cornelia, Caesar's wife.
The young woman said coldly.
Cornelia, don't be rude to the general.
Alleria said dissatisfied.
I see, mother.
Cornelia said quickly.
At this time, women in Rome used the feminine names of the clan names. For example, Cornelia's father is Lucius Cornelius Cinna, so her name is Cornelia, the Yin name of the clan name Cornelius.
If Li Wei had a daughter, then his daughter should be called Portia, the negative name of Bocius. No matter how many daughters Li Wei had, all his daughters would be named Portia.
Because of the limited number of clan names in Rome, the phenomenon of duplication of female surnames in Rome is very serious.
If there are multiple daughters, in order to distinguish, the eldest daughter can be called Portia Prima, which means the first daughter, and the second daughter is Portia Secunda, which means the second daughter.
It's really humble. She's not in a good mood recently.
Aurelia said.
Understandable.
Levi said.
He understood how much pressure Cornelia was under. It was because of her that Caesar became an enemy of the state and was exiled because of her.
Sulla said that as long as Caesar divorced Cornelia, he would let Caesar go, but Caesar refused, and then started his own escape, which is better than Pompey.
Alleria asked: I don't know how the general knew my son.
I met him on the way to Rome, and I have come to tell you good news and bad news. The good news is that your son was rescued by me when he was chased by Sulla's cavalry, and I happened to touch him. and saved him.
Levi said.
Is this true? Thank you so much, General. I can't thank you enough for your kindness.
Alleria said it was good to know her son was safe and sound.
What's the bad news?
Cornelia asked.
Is he injured?
Alleria asked nervously.
He just had a little fever, and I got someone to treat him.
Levi said.
Hearing this, Aurelia and Cornelia both heaved a sigh of relief.
The bad news is that he owes me a little bit, really a little bit.
Levi said.
Aurelia's complexion changed slightly, she was a smart person, and immediately knew that this was Caesar's life money.
I don't know how much a little bit is?
Aurelia asked.
Look for yourself. In fact, you don't have to rush to pay it back. I can ask Caesar for it.
Li Wei smiled awkwardly.
After reading it, Aurelia was dizzy for a while, and Cornelia was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.
310,000 dinars, 48% annual interest, and compound interest.
How could he be Caesar's friend? He is simply a vicious wolf who eats people without spitting out bones.
Cornelia looked at him furiously, like a sworn enemy.
Alleria's face is full of resentment, are you as deceitful as this?
Hahaha, Caesar said that you don't need to pay this back, he has a way to pay it back.
Li Wei said awkwardly.
It seems that Caesar served as the governor of Spain in 61 BC, and it was after he became the governor of Spain that he was able to pay off his debts.
There are still 21 years before he becomes the governor of Spain. If the compound interest rate is 48% per annum, how much will he have to repay by then?
This should be worth it...
Li Wei thought with some uncertainty.
I will find a way to pay it off as soon as possible, so you don't have to worry about that.
Aurelia said.
The interest is terrible, and I have to pay it back as soon as possible. It seems that I have to ask my brother for help.
Then I won't be polite, I will try to persuade General Sulla to remove Caesar from the list of public enemies. In addition, during this time, if someone troubles you, you can ask me for help. Forget it, I will find some soldiers Help you stand guard and drive away those troublemakers.
Levi said.
What a shame.
Hearing this, Aurelia's perception of Li Wei took a 180-degree turn, transforming from a black-hearted vampire to a fairly warm-hearted person.
It's nothing, it's settled.
Li Wei quickly called a centurion, handed over the matter to him, and asked him to send some soldiers to stop those greedy people every day.
Caesar is a very capable person, and investing in him is extremely rewarding.
Whether it is money investment (usury) or emotional investment, you can get high returns.
Now Aurelia was really moved. If Caesar could be removed from the public enemy list, then 600,000 dinars, let alone 300,000 dinars, would be worth it.
And Li Wei, as the number one general under Sura, naturally has the heaviest weight.
He is different from those generals who have nothing but military power. His soldiers are almost entirely his own private soldiers. Alleria feels that this time there is a good chance of success.
Thank you so much, General.
Alleria said gratefully.
That's what it should be, who made me like Caesar!
Li Wei laughed and said.
Cornelia couldn't help but rolled her eyes, seeing that he was pleasing to the eye and cheated him of 310,000 dinars.
After rejecting Aurelia's several times of persuasion, Li Wei left here and walked directly to Su La's mansion.
As Li Wei, he didn't need to wait, he went in directly.
At this time, Su La was writing a letter, and when she saw Li Wei, she asked him to sit down.
What do you think of this letter?
After finishing writing, Su La handed the letter to Li Wei, and Li Wei picked it up and read it.
Dear Regent Valerius: As we all know, the country is in a very dangerous state. In order to better cope with the current situation, countermeasures for extraordinary times must be adopted. If the usual consul system is not enough, the dictator system for a special period must be followed, and the term of the dictator cannot be the usual 6 months, but should be indefinite...
Li Wei roughly understood the meaning of the letter. Roman law stipulated that the term of the dictator was only 6 months, but Sulla wanted to be the dictator for life.
As for the regent, when the two consuls die or go into exile for various reasons, the chief elder will automatically be promoted to the regent and preside over the competition for the consuls.
It's not badly written.
Levi said.
Then will you support me?
Sura asked.
Li Wei felt a little speechless. Didn't he say everything last time, why did he come to test again.
I put up my hands and feet for support.
Levi said.
Sura gave him a deep look, Li Wei, I feel that you are different from others. Even if they say they support me, they are very reluctant. Only you don't care at all. Can you tell me why?
Li Wei has had enough, no wonder those dictators are always suspicious, even a dictator is so suspicious.
He was a little hesitant at this moment, did he really want to embark on this road of no return?
It's just a dictator for life, what's the big deal, and you're so old.
Levi said.
Sura's face turned black, this little bastard is really a bastard, even hinting that he won't live for a few years.
