Chapter 66 Choice
Machiavelli's mission cannot be completed for the time being, so Ladislaus reexamined his mission and made plans.
"Restore the strength of Silica Boss" I don't know where to start, but finding a belief for Old John is much clearer. Although Ladislaus values Silica Boss more than Old John, he also needs to arrange his own resources reasonably and not waste them like a headless fly.
However, Machiavelli was the subordinate of Ladislaus's most valued subordinate, so Ladislaus still discussed his financial plan with him and promised to conduct trade settlement through the Bank of Machiavelli after the recruitment of White Agate sailors was completed. When he learned that the Bank of Machiavelli still had several docks in Rome that could be rented at a discounted price, Ladislaus also said that he could hand over the business to the Bank of Machiavelli immediately.
However, when contacting the work, Machiavelli still tactfully insisted on giving it to Captain Jack, and he would avoid suspicion when doing business with his family.
Although Ladislaus once said that he still trusted Machiavelli the most, Machiavelli's insistence on refusing still made him more satisfied.
After the two arranged their work, they chatted for a while and exchanged their views on the history and art of the city of Rome. Machiavelli was surprised to learn that Ladislaus had a low evaluation of the Sistine Chapel and said that he had been received by the previous true pope as an ambassador in Florence. He felt that the carved beams and painted roads were not like the world, and were very shocking, and it was indeed a masterpiece.
Regarding Ladislaus' negative comments, Machiavelli thought that Ladislaus had not received the attention he wanted from the real election of the pope, so he hated Wu Jiwu a little.
As an artist, he tried to introduce Michelangelo's masterpiece in the Sistine Chapel to Ladislaus.
Machiavelli has a sense of mission to strengthen the feelings and identity of the members of the Holy Roman Empire's royal family and consider themselves as Holy Roman Empire, not just as Austrian.
Ladislaus also understood that now he owns the surname "Habsburg", which shows appreciation for Italian culture and is very helpful in strengthening the connection between the two major ethnic groups within the Holy Roman Empire.
So even though I was extremely disappointed with the so-called "Genesis" in my memory, I still listened to Machiavelli's endless talk about Michelangelo's genius and diligence as much as possible.
However, no matter what, Ladislaus still could not accept Machiavelli's view, after all, seeing is true.
So when the Marquis Facheti came to the reception room of Ladislaus with supper, Ladislaus was so happy that he could get rid of it.
Machiavelli was working hard last night when Ladislaus was "closely connected" and had no idea that his master had already given good luck so quickly.
However, since he was the most sensible and tactful person, he immediately understood that he should surrender. Obviously, the Marquis de Facedi was the "work of art" that his master is most concerned about at present.
After Anna got up in the afternoon, she was introduced by old Cologna to a senior priest of Cassus, the Lord of Fire in Rome, and prayed for the safety of his father and brother. Although Lurna brought the news that the Knights of Casano had already met with the old Sibo and his son, it was not safe to enter Rome, which made Anna worry.
Anna is very grateful to old Cologne. The dark sun is the only one in the city of Rome. No other gods have a temple, but because this is the most important religious center in Europa, the churches of the main gods often arrange for senior pastors to manage a small altar here.
However, such a small altar can only maintain diplomatic existence, and the most basic religious activities have also been suppressed by the Dark Sun Church. Although it can be sacrificed, it cannot be publicly preached and engaged, and it is difficult for outsiders to find it.
Old Cologne not only helped to help, but also asked the "formal mistress" of her dead son to take Anna with her.
He was really attentive in service. Anna was really satisfied and even made a secret decision that if one day he could regain the Republic of Liguria, he would definitely repay the kindness of the Colonna family.
Although he was a little disappointed that Ladislaus could not pray with him, Anna also understood Ladislaus's current identity and his busy work.
Poor Anna never imagined why old Cologne was so attentive and thoughtful, and why the lady who did not believe in the Lord of Fire Cass was to stay with her even though she lost her man.
The poor young boy was sold by the old bird, and he helped his stored food to the old bird's nest with gratitude.
This method of offering women is so admirable.
Ladislaus enjoyed the wine that came from Susan while admiring the old Cologne.
This not only eliminates embarrassment, but also gives Ladislaus and Anna a room for improvement.
Radislaus naturally understood that Anna would have to be furious in the end, but after having some space to prevent Anna from looking ugly in person, she should not break up. On the one hand, she has now become the spokesperson of the Warlock Royal Family in the Apennine Peninsula. The Xibo family is very eager to revive it. On the other hand, this recent period of life and death has indeed made them have deep feelings.
The most important thing is that the Marquis de Faccheti, who lost his marquis's property, was actually very reluctant to be the "official mistress" of Ladislaus. Now the Cologne family, who is also in short supply, could not give a dowry that could make Ladislaus excited. After all, Ladislaus is not an ordinary archbishop.
Moreover, the Marquis was no longer young after marrying for many years, but never had a childbirth history, which is also a very unfavorable condition.
Yes, like ordinary marriages, "marriage" with senior priests also depends on dowry and fertility.
Not to mention that although the warlock inheritance emphasizes close relatives, it is possible to give birth to a powerful warlock with a mother who has no warlock bloodline at all.
Of course, it is best to find a wife with a relatively close relationship. However, as far as Ladislaus knows, his father's cousins should have no contact in Hungary, and they are all separated by a generation. Although the Roman church prohibits intermarriage within four generations, in fact, as long as it is not a brother or sister, you can always "public relations". However, the Hungarian royal family is actually very wary of the increasingly powerful Habsburg family. It seems unlikely that Ladislaus has any fate with these cousins.
His Majesty the Contemporary Emperor and the Acting Grand Duke have several illegitimate sisters. The church will never buy this relationship. Of course, the wives of these two brothers must be the princess of an important country.
Even if Anna is not the daughter of the consul, she is now a level 7 druid, and the Marquis Facheti's capital is not enough to compete.
Any society actually has a strong and rich man, and Anna is also a nobleman who grew up in this environment and will accept it even if she is influenced by her.
Not to mention the powerful sorcerers with names in history, I have never heard of any one who is famous for their loyalty.
In short, after fully assessing the cost and risks, Ladislaus felt that he could continue to eat.
When Anna returned to the Colonna Palace in the evening, she was told that Ladislaus had been busy for a day and had already gone to bed early, so she didn't think much about it and continued to enjoy her own bath.
I just don’t know how Anna, who was happily skiing in the pool, would have thought if she knew that there were two people taking a shower together and doing something else by the way.
Of course, Ladislaus was indeed busy with some serious business by the way. In addition to her, the Marquis Facheti also brought a message from his father.
Learning that Ladislaus intends to trade with the sea ships he won, Old Cologne said that he could use the Corona family's relationship in Rome to purchase Ladislaus. Not only the price is based on the settlement price, but the payment can be settled after the White Agate returns.
The tired Susan hadn't forgotten to ask Ladislaus which route to take before going to bed, so as to decide what kind of purchase it would be.
But Ladislaus had not yet determined the trade route. He was waiting for the shipowner Lacilis. Although the lover had complained many times that he wanted a large ship to expand the trade in the Black Continent, he had not met and negotiated the distribution of interests. Ladislaus could not be sure whether his ship could only find a job to help the emperor transport military rations. This job was consuming connections and could only barely afford food and clothing. It was really the best choice.
Of course, there is no need to explain this issue to the people around you today.
However, Ladislaus was still very satisfied with the good intentions of the Colonna family. After all, he decided to do the task of "restoreing the strength of Silica boss". He was just talking about Italian art with Machiavelli, and he had a little direction, but he had to spend a lot of money and was not worth it.
If you can buy goods first and then check out, you will have much more funds, and this should be part of the Cologne family's mission.
