Eagle Byzantium

Gawain nodded, and then said that it was not very convenient here, and we would go to the cellar on the lower floor of this building to talk right away.

At this time, Agnes and Wen Ruomingna arrived at the synagogue with the motorcade. It took them a long time to pass through the bustling crowds and stalls outside, and then one caravan after another entered the double doors of the synagogue. The driver The guards and soldiers shouted at the animals and parked them all in the open space in front of the warehouse.

"Come down, come down." Little Sunfish pulled the sleeping attendant a little roughly, forcing her to stand with him, and then asked the other palace maids sent with Wen Ruomingna to line up for him to count.

In the midst of the busy work, several Pauline believers in black clothes came to her and told her that they would not be able to reach Sebastian City tonight, so they would rest in the post area of ​​the synagogue for the time being. The Golden-Hand Archon had already done this. I'd like to help you arrange your food and accommodation.

"Please forgive me..." After hearing this, the sleeping attendant immediately asked timidly to speak.

"explain."

"His Royal Highness the Patron is also resting here tonight, right? So can I fulfill my duties and help the Patron prepare to clean the room and take some health care measures." The sleeping attendant pinched her belt and said, she obviously wanted to Taking the opportunity to get rid of the power of the little sunfish, he went to Gawain to plead with him again.

"Didn't you see how fast and far the big brown bear was led by the vixen's beautiful tail just now? You still need to clean up the dormitory? You are not allowed to go anywhere tonight. The plan for the canal lock has been rejected. But whether it should be replaced by a circle or a herringbone, you still have to discuss it with me." The little sunfish objected sarcastically at first, and then when he mentioned the "ship lock plan", he couldn't help but make the sleeping officer's back tremble.

Just as they were heading to the hotel area, candles were lit in the cellar downstairs. Gawain sighed, "I didn't expect that there is actually wine brewed in the cellar? The reserve is quite large."

"Although we don't drink alcohol, it doesn't stop us from selling alcohol." The Holy Sister smiled and lit up the candlestick. "Now the Christians have captured the Levant from the followers of Mohammed. As you expected before, the entire ocean began to It's boiling. Although wars break out from time to time, trade is everywhere, and money is becoming more and more scarce. Everyone is trapped in "lack of money" and "no money". In fear, the gold coins, silver coins and even copper coins minted by all previous kingdoms could not keep up with the flow of trade. Therefore, Inglina's silk, the refined salt produced in your salt lake, my woolen fabrics, wine, and saffron spices all You can trade it directly. There is no benefit in brewing more, so don’t be too pretentious and give me the answer, layman Stephen Gawain.”

"That's it...Has Anna sent any letters privately to the sleeping attendant recently and handed them over to you?" Gawain suddenly asked, leaning on the wine barrel in the cellar.

The Holy Sister did not hide it, "She has always been very concerned about the construction of the Paulist market town. Unlike her deceased father, this little girl is not interested in coercing us to convert our faith. She only cares about tax issues. Therefore, in the letter, she It is proposed to classify the market towns here into three types: 'Farmer-style', 'Tool-style' and 'Workshop-style'." Shengmei raised three fingers and said to Gao Wen, "The so-called Farmer's Market Town. Leaning on the swamp, On the edge of the forest, they specialize in animal husbandry, farming, and industries such as goat cheese, butter, wool, and salted fish; while the tool market town is responsible for producing all kinds of utensils needed for cities and workshops, and it should be located on both sides of rivers and roads for easy access. Transportation; finally, it is the workshop style. Anna suggested in her letter to me that I vigorously promote wool spinning here. However, wool spinning requires too many workshops, so there are now twelve market towns, and a workshop style has not yet been spawned. Come out of the market town.”

Hearing this, Gawain laughed, "Anna's suggestion is actually completely correct. The plateau is the most suitable area for large-scale livestock herds. In addition, we have just promoted Angora sheep. If we can combine Melitene and Seba Stian was built as a center for woolen fabrics, Then this place will become the most important source of talent, just like Cilicia. In addition, Anna's wooing you in this way certainly has her own private purpose - she wants to hold you up and suppress Inglina's Kale. Adio Castle is the center of the silk industry.”

"It's not all about balancing us women. After all, Inglina gave birth to your eldest son, which is a certain threat to her, but I have not given birth so far, and I have almost no threat to Anna Ducasse. That's why she generously gave Paul sent the market town to offer tax reductions and even tax exemptions. Every time you came, she also gave you many thin sheep intestines." Shengmei put her hands on her chin and frowned, "Okay, these things are the same as what I asked you just now. The problem is not relevant, right?”

"Of course it is related." Gawain was mysterious. "I can foresee that Inglina will not be able to compete with you in the future. Although Inglina is also a very smart woman, she almost fights alone, but you With the support of the Paulist organization, it will naturally become different over time.”

"You mean, the synagogue system?"

"Well, the current synagogue system of the Paulists is more effective than the monastic system after the reform in the Frankish land. It can quickly give birth to many residential settlements and agricultural, industrial and commercial center towns. Now you should not be surprised why you have done so in such a short period of time. It can develop 30,000 new believers, because the synagogue system cultivates, produces, and preaches at the same time. How many fields and pastures have been cultivated by us Paulists? The believers will develop as much as possible." Gawain clenched his fists and said with great force. He really looked like a devout layman who cared about religious affairs. His words made the Holy Sister smile with joy, "And once your Pauline faction is strong enough. , I will no longer take it seriously, whether it is Orthodoxy or Catholicism. I will transform the entire Roman Empire and create a new type of church that is truly loyal to me, with the Pauline sect and the Reformed Church as the backbone.”

Now, after hearing these words, the Holy Sister's brows gradually flattened, but her lips curled up in surprise, "Hey..." She was obviously in a state of confusion.

Gawain continued to be arrogant, "Now I am using the Catholic Church to fight against the Orthodox Roman Empire. Although this has achieved a lot of benefits so far, its shortcomings are also obvious. That is, even if I can occupy Constantinople in the future, the flag will be destroyed. On the surface, we have to listen to the Holy See. But the Holy See is nothing. It was originally just an ordinary parish under the jurisdiction of St. Peter, and later it gradually rose to the status of the "Prince of the Districts". Here and in the east are mostly the parishes of St. Paul, St. James, and St. Mark. Of course, after I occupy these parishes in the future, I will no longer be able to submit to the Pope of St. Peter. I have entrusted you to study the new church in secret. The teachings are planning for the future. The future Roman Empire will certainly need a leader, a national church, an army and a faith. Holy sister, this is the answer I give you.

"But nowadays, most of the world is dominated by the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church. I am almost ready for the doctrine, but how can I change people's beliefs?" Of course, Cabeamiya is not worried about what to think, but what to do.

"Go back to the Bible and promote the printing press, directly establishing the right to interpret the Bible for ordinary believers." In response to this, Gowen directly reported the new word "printing press."
