Once captured by the pirates of the ocean, they demanded a ransom of 20 talents for Julius from the Roman empire. Sensing the opportunity, Julius played with a smile & insisted to demand for not less than 50 talents. For an army commander this amount was more than the levitated value. Thus, increasing his potential significance in the empire.
The amount was given, he was relieved, Julius then with his forces recaptured the pirates & retrieved the 50 talents.
Talent : Currency of Roman Empire
