Chapter 74 This is my way to break the situation
Looking at Duke Tireus’ extremely angry look at this moment, Linn felt very calm in his heart.
Obviously, what happened in the Municipal Square has already spread throughout the city.
And of course it is impossible for him not to know.
Not only that, Linn also specifically marked it when he was unfurling the banner. This move was the initiative of Duke Tyrus.
This is equivalent to pushing him into a pit of fire and becoming the target of public criticism.
It will even have a certain impact on the reputation of the Tyrus family abroad.
Outsiders would only think that the seemingly majestic Duke family was actually just a polished commander who raised his voice but was ignored.
This is undoubtedly an extremely serious blow to the prestige of Duke Tyrus.
So after knowing what Lynn had done, Duke Tireus couldn't sit still at all, and hurriedly found Augusta Manor.
He was very angry now and wanted to question Linn.
“Don’t be impatient, Your Majesty the Duke.” Lin En sighed, “I know you are in a hurry, but don’t be anxious yet.”
“In my opinion, it is more urgent now. The anxious party should be the church.”
Hearing this, Duke Tireus. Jue was stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly: "Those guys are busy working together to fight against us, is it their turn to be anxious?"
Lin En shook his head: "If you look at it from the perspective of the people and believers, In this case, you will find that the situation is completely different.”
"What do you mean?"
Although he came with anger at the beginning, at this moment, under the guidance of Linn's few words, Duke Tireus gradually became calmer.
He sat on the free seat beside him, supporting his knees with his hands and sitting upright.
Seeing this, Linn continued: "Give me an example."
"If the Duke is a devout believer in the Church of Abundance and passes by the municipal square one day, he discovers those donation boxes and The banner above, do you want to do your part for your beliefs? ”
"Of course I am."
Duke Tireus wanted to retort.
But after actually thinking about it, I found that it was really the case.
The reason why those glass donation boxes are transparent is to allow passers-by and onlookers to clearly see the amount inside, as well as the corresponding church and belief.
This leads to a question.
The poorer they are, or the more disappointed they are with life, they will be like a drowning person grasping at straws and place their hope on illusory religious beliefs, thinking that God will save them.
Once they develop devout beliefs, these people will show their crazy side.
For example, the commonality of most human beings is vanity.
It’s not just the rich who compare.
In order to protect their beliefs, sometimes poor people and ordinary people will become crazy.
Because they truly believe that gods are watching over the world.
So after placing these glass donation boxes in the municipal square, in order to make the church they believe in look good, they will support this fundraising event extremely vigorously.
Believers will actively compete to see which church can donate more money.
After all, this is an opportunity for exposure in front of everyone’s eyes.
And the smell of gunpowder between churches and believers who usually have frictions and conflicts will become stronger than ever.
No believer wants his or her church to invest less than other churches.
In the end, it will definitely turn into a morbid carnival sweeping the city.
Unfortunately, Lin En had anticipated such a situation.
So at the beginning, he ordered the guards to prohibit ordinary believers and people from coming to donate money.
So until now, the donation boxes that should have been filled long ago are still empty.
"Think about it, the banner on the donation box and the empty situation inside are simply a wonderful irony for those believers."
"Although it is not fatal, it is enough to make them In my spare time, I have some doubts about my faith.”
“For example, why do I donate so much money to the church, but in the end, they still get nothing?”
Lynn said lightly.
“.”
At this moment, Duke Tyrus was deep in thought. In fact, as early as when Lin En first started talking, he had vaguely guessed what the other person was thinking.
This is really a very clear idea.
The last trace of dissatisfaction in his heart also dissipated.
After a moment of silence, Duke Tyrus once again raised his question: "But if they choose to start over again, what should you do?"
Right now, the group of guys headed by the Tianli Church are uniting to resist.
In order to resist Duke Tyrus and not to chill the believers, they are likely to hold another donation ceremony.
In short, it is the operation of turning the left hand into the right hand.
In the end, it was just another blood-sucking and marrow-draining operation on the people, while the money from their own people was returned in full.
“It’s too late.” Lin En smiled, “Your Majesty, it’s already the fourth day.”
"If my guess is correct, starting from tomorrow, this battle between the imperial power, the church and the nobility will change its shape."
For some reason, the young man in front of me is giving people a feeling. The illusion that defeat can be turned into victory at any time.
“So, what are you waiting for now?”
Duke Tiervus looked at Linn and asked.
Lin raised his index finger: "I'm waiting for an opportunity to break the situation, a 'successor'."
As soon as he finished speaking, the housekeeper Kesha came back and reported in a low voice beside Linn: "Master, the bishop of the Islamic sect wants to meet with you."
"Look, he is here. . ”
Led by the maid, Ivo Traore came to a garden anxiously.
At this moment, his heart was full of nervousness and fear.
As the diocesan bishop of the Islamic sect in Orne City, he came to meet with the mastermind behind this incident at the risk of being hostile to the Heavenly Church.
This is the tragedy of small churches.
Speaking of the Islamic sect, it is actually a bit lackluster.
Bishop Ivo is not a native resident of Orne City.
He comes from a small, remote country sandwiched between the Saint Laurent Empire and the Tutankhamun Empire. The people in the country generally believe in the God of the Earth, and are basically followers of the Islamic sect.
Because this country is rich in magic stone veins, you can make a lot of money just by exporting trade.
But the common man is not guilty of carrying the jade.
After amassing a large amount of wealth in a short period of time, they attracted the attention of Tutankhamun's empire.
Because this empire believes in the God of War, it advocates disputes and violence.
Then, an extremely common war of aggression occurred.
Ivo fled his country from that war. In order to prevent the Islamic sect from being completely cut off, he decided to spread his faith everywhere, and finally came to Orne City after wandering for a long time.
Fortunately, freedom of belief is advocated here, making it an excellent soil for incubating sects.
In the following years, the sect gradually grew and grew.
Although it is far from comparable to the Tianli Church, there are nearly 10,000 extremely devout believers in Orne City.
But then, many questions followed.
First of all, there was a conflict between the teachings of the God of the Earth and the Church of Abundance rooted in the local area. They were repeatedly warned by the city council and the Public Security Bureau, asking them to modify their teachings.
This is absolutely ridiculous.
He is just a bishop, what qualifications do he have to change the canon on behalf of God?
The second thing is that a few years ago, the Cathedral of the God of War entered Orne City and began to attract believers.
This church is affiliated with Tutankhamun's empire and has a sworn hatred with Bishop Ivo's country, so naturally it is impossible for them to live in harmony.
Under the oppression of these two parties, the living space of the Islamic sect was gradually invaded.
Now, it seems to have become the weakest church in the local area, and even has a tendency to exist in name only.
So, in order to survive, he finally found the Augusta Manor.
Looking at the young man who was younger than expected, and the silent Duke Tyrus next to him, Bishop Ivo vaguely felt that he seemed to have come to the right place.
