I'm not quite sure what you're asking.

Are you asking where the "boss" of the indentured servants gets the money to pay the servants for their work? 'cause the answer to that is business. My slaves harvest, you buy off me. I pay my slaves enough that they can get by, but not enough to escape.

Or are you asking how the Imperium makes money?

For that, I turn to the USA's very own DoT. The Department of the Treasury.

US sells a bond, takes anywhere between $100 and 100,000 off someone's hands.

US buys it back, puts money back into the economy.

US raises the interest rates on bank loans and raises taxes/tariffs, and reduces how much free-floating money is out there. US lowers taxes, tarrifs and interest rate to put more money in the hands of the people.

Or were you asking something else?
