Crassus invented the fire brigade and his head became a stage prop for the Parthians.
Didn't he routinely order his brigade to do nothing until he managed to acquire the burning property (at increasingly decreased cost as the fire raged) from its owner ?
Yes, that too. He also was one of the most prominent slave traders of the time and put down the Spartacus revolt.
