Jerusalem is a very magical place. Two of the three major sects in the world believe that this is their holy land. There is another one that I have to mention, that is Judaism. The Jews believe that Jerusalem is also their holy land.
Since he has a Catholic identity, it is only natural for Qin Zhiyuan to intervene in the Middle East in the name of Catholicism.
Of course, judging from the current situation, it is not easy for Qin Zhiyuan to intervene in the Middle East. After all, Palestine is under the control of the British, and Qin Zhiyuan cannot bypass the British if he wants to intervene.
Qin Zhiyuan did not need to worry about this issue. After the meeting, Qin Zhiyuan returned to Black Swan Castle, and Auerbach was waiting for Qin Zhiyuan.
Auerbach, who achieved great success in Lanfang, was highly regarded after returning to the Vatican and became one of the most powerful candidates for the next pope. This time he came to Lanfang as the pope's special envoy to urge Qin Zhiyuan to visit the temple.
Obligations of the Grand Master of the Order.
Of course, there are rights when there are obligations. At the beginning of the establishment of the Foreign Legion, Benedict XV continued to provide funds for Qin Zhiyuan, which helped Qin Zhiyuan survive the most difficult period. To this day, there are still more than a dozen ancient monuments across Europe.
The castle and the manor are in Qin Zhiyuan's name, and they are Qin Zhiyuan's private property. After the establishment of Lanfang, the scale of Benedict XV's private assistance to Qin Zhiyuan did not expand, but in many other aspects, Benedict XV
Shi still helped Qin Zhiyuan a lot, otherwise Lanfang would not have attracted so many Western talents to join as it does now. Catholic recognition is an important factor.
Qin Zhiyuan and Auerbach are old friends. Regardless of their social status, their personal relationship is enough to become a good story. After meeting Qin Zhiyuan, Auerbach had no intention of getting up to greet him, and he did not even put down the wine glass in his hand.
.
I was in the United States some time ago. Damn it, you don’t know. Americans are promoting some damn alcohol prohibition, but no one is actually enforcing it. What is sold in society is that as long as the right amount of water is added, it will become a magical product.
The raw material of the liquid, the president and his advisers secretly drank it while hiding in the office. The smell of alcohol can be smelled from Pennsylvania Avenue. I bet Harding has brandy hidden under his desk. What a bunch of hypocrites.
Auerbach looked at the amber liquid in the wine glass and felt relaxed and happy. He raised his glass to Qin Zhiyuan and said: It's better to be here. I can be free and indulge in my body, and no one will say that I have misbehaved.
It seems that Auerbach, whose position is getting higher and higher, is not very satisfied with the current situation, which may also be the motivation for Auerbach to move forward.
The origin of Prohibition in the United States is a bit ridiculous. It is the product of the women's movement. Due to severe alcoholism, serious domestic violence has occurred in the United States. To put it simply, American men like to go home and beat their wives when they drink too much. Of course, it may also be because women drink too much.
I got home and was beaten by my husband. No matter what, Americans believe that the problem of alcoholism has become serious enough to require legislation to control, so this weird law came into being.
Seeing this, if anyone dares to say that the United States is a country where everyone is equal, Auerbach will dare to spit in his face.
You drunkard, my office has become your bar from the first day you came here. Isn't alcohol one of the original sins? Qin Zhiyuan was not angry, and he didn't care much about Auerbach's identity as Red Archbishop.
Although Qin Zhiyuan is the leader of the Knights Templar, unfortunately, Qin Zhiyuan does not understand much about doctrine. If he picks up a clergyman at random, he will be hundreds of times more proficient than Qin Zhiyuan.
Who said it was greed? In this regard, we are all mortals. Auerbach also talked nonsense. In Qin Zhiyuan's place, Auerbach was indeed very relaxed and not at all defensive.
Well, the result you want has been passed. In the next two months, two divisions will be deployed near the Middle East. As long as the opportunity arises, Jerusalem will only belong to the Catholic Church. Qin Zhiyuan reported the latest progress, and there was not much
The meaning of excitement seems to be more of a routine.
That's really great. Just wait. The opportunity will appear soon. When the time comes, the honor will belong to the Lord, and what you will get will be benefits. Auerbach immediately put down the wine glass in his hand and paced back and forth in the office.
.
Auerbach has been dealing with Qin Zhiyuan for a long time. According to Auerbach's understanding of Qin Zhiyuan, it is wishful thinking to win over Qin Zhiyuan with honors, flowers, etc. What can be offered must be actual benefits. Come to Lan
During this period of time, Auerbach had already conspired with Qin Zhiyuan several times. If Jerusalem is captured, the honor of recovering the Holy Land will belong to Benedict XV. What Lan Fang will get will be the huge territory around Jerusalem. The specific size depends on the size.
Due to Qin Zhiyuan's ability, for this honor, Benedict XV also made a personal gift to Qin Zhiyuan, which will be transferred to Qin Zhiyuan's account before taking action.
It is not appropriate to use the word "currency" to express it. This money will not go into the accounts of banks with Western backgrounds. After reaching an agreement with Qin Zhiyuan, a batch of about one hundred tons of gold has been deposited into the Lanfang Royal Palace.
Bank, this bank is different from Lanfang National Bank. It is mainly used to handle Qin Zhiyuan's personal account expenses, including Qin Zhiyuan's annual investment income from all over the world. Qin Zhiyuan's financial support to Lanfang's military is all done through this method.
bank account.
One hundred tons of gold is a big number. You must know that during the most dangerous period of the world war, the British transported their gold reserves to the United States, and the total was only about 4,000 tons. It seems that Benedict XV is indeed very rich.
money.
If you think about it, you can understand that the sect has existed for thousands of years, and for hundreds of years in the middle, it was the pope of European emperors. The strength of the Vatican is really unfathomable.
It doesn't matter what I get, the key is what you want. I have done well enough now, but as for you, I don't think you have reached the peak of your life now. Qin Zhiyuan is still provoking Auerbach's ambitions.
My friend, don’t worry, I am slowly getting closer to what I want. As long as you do your job well, it is the greatest support for me. Auerbach tacitly understood and picked up the wine glass again: For the ideal
for ideal
This is possible. Of course clergymen also have ideals. If people don’t have ideals, they are no different from salted fish.
Of course Auerbach also has ideals. The next pope is Auerbach’s current goal. In the Vatican, Qin Zhiyuan can play a small role, but outside the Vatican, Qin Zhiyuan is Auerbach’s biggest supporter. Lan Fang
The greater his influence, the more chips Auerbach will have in his hands. This is a good thing for win-win cooperation.
While Qin Zhiyuan and Auerbach were toasting together, unknown stories were happening in the palace stables.
After Girardine entered the National Security Agency, he had his own office in the headquarters of the National Security Agency. But for various reasons, Girardine did not like it there, and now Girardine is very talkative.
, unable to change certain facts, simply out of sight and out of mind, Girardine moved his office to the stables of the palace.
Compared with the headquarters of the National Security Agency, the palace stables are indeed a better place. At least it is safer here, because in the palace, safety is guaranteed, and because the stables are full of horses, these horses will never betray Girardine.
Speaking of safety and security, there are also hidden dangers in the palace, and this is what the Girardine trio are discussing.
Zhong Yiqiu has a wide range of activities. Yesterday morning, Zhong Yiqiu went to the Boy Scout camp. Although it was for business, on the way, Zhong Yiqiu went to a bar called Sunset Wanzhao. In the bar, Zhong Yiqiu came into contact with three people, one of whom
One is a regular in the bar, and the other is rare. He goes to the bar very rarely. One situation deserves our attention. The regular is a Japanese who planned. At the same time, we have reason to believe that we develop in the Boy Scouts.
The news about the outer members has been leaked, and there have been quite a few strange faces appearing around the Boy Scout camp recently. Virginia is reporting to Girardine.
Girardine and Virginia were walking in the racecourse. As Qin Zhiyuan's godchildren, Girardine and the others could enter and leave the palace at will, and they could avoid eavesdropping in an open area. Regarding this eavesdropping, Girardine even
The office at NSA headquarters wasn't convinced either.
If he were the director of the National Security Agency, Girardin would never let go of the internal monitoring of the National Security Agency. He would recommend others by himself. Girardin believed that Gao Hongshi would not be very kind, although he would have more of a preventive component.
, but Girardine still doesn't want to have an extra pair of eyes around her at any time.
Well
There is still a little girl around Geraldine. During this period, there is a little girl beside Gerardine. This little girl is nominally Geraldine’s personal secretary. In fact, even Qin Zhiyuan has heard of the little girl’s name.
.Yes, it’s Lan Ziying. This little girl has graduated from McTavish’s training class. According to McTavish, he has nothing to teach Lan Ziying, so Lan Ziying graduated early.
.
Zhong Yiqiu is a female official in the palace. She was one of the batch of beautiful girls sent to the palace by Huang Bohan and others when Qin Zhiyuan ascended the throne. Qin Zhiyuan had no idea about these so-called beautiful girls and originally wanted to return them all.
But because the palace really needs staff, Julie and Misha cannot be fully responsible for Qin Zhiyuan's daily life, so Julie made the decision and let them serve as female officials in the palace, which can be regarded as employees of the palace.
These people have signed labor contracts, and both parties have the right to terminate them at any time. Julie does not restrict them from marrying, and they will receive a huge red envelope when they get married. Therefore, these female officials have not caused any trouble.
Girardin worked for the Ministry of Internal Affairs Supervision. With Qin Zhiyuan's deliberate connivance, the scope of responsibility of this Ministry of Internal Affairs was indeed a bit large. The palace was Girardin's first target.
