Chapter 36: Here Comes a Gift Giver

Before the annual Great Prayer Ceremony, the believers of God will report the results they have obtained from the grace of God over the past year to the priests in the local church, and then after the priests, the results that best reflect the devotion of the believers are reported to the regional bishops. The regional bishops are screened and reported to the archbishops of each Kingdom diocese. The archbishops submit the list and instructions of the best results to the Cardinal Order of the Temple for review. The Cardinal Order of the Cardinal Order of the Pope. After the final trial, the saint takes the list to the cathedrals of each Kingdom diocese for on-site verification. The results after verification will be brought to the temple to show them to God during the Great Prayer. If God is happy about this, the grace of God will be reduced.

After Brigitte introduced some relevant knowledge about the Great Prayer to Charles and Diana, she brought a group of guests to the VIP lounge of the temple.

The Forged Temple is a huge circular complex.

Its outermost layer is a circle of buildings that look like a city wall. These six-story flat roofs built of gray-brown rocks symbolize the furnace walls of the stove. This circle of buildings called wall buildings is the daily workplace of the priests of the temple.

The inner layer is a circle of black rocks and is inlaid with a square composed of red rocks with various religious patterns. It symbolizes the charcoal inside the stove. Whenever the temple holds an event, the square will be filled with people.

In the middle, the Holy Hammer Cathedral, which is a flame-shaped building made of fiery red rocks. This is the core of the temple.

The entire Forged Temple looks like a stove.

The VIP lounge is located on the top floor next to the main entrance directly south of the wall building. The building's nearly six meters of floor height and the terrain height of the temple's location allow guests to have a bird's eye view of the entire smelting plant area in front and then see the Holy Hammer Church in the center of the temple.

Of course, Charles and the others invited the Forging Temple today, the royal family members of the Fillingen Kingdom and some nobles.

Other archbishops in the Diocese of the Kingdom of Fillingen were also invited, such as the earth, ice, water flow, strong wind, war god, wisdom, prophecy, music, love.

Charles was no longer able to complain about these bloated gods. He once counted on his fingers that as long as they could be encountered in life, there was no place that God could not control.

Now there are three groups of people in the VIP lounge. The nobles gather together with the two princes of the Kingdom of Fillingen as the core. Elizabeth chats with the shepherds of the gods. The third group is a bit fewer, namely, Charles and Diana are counting the chimneys in front of the window.

The others just thought that the two children were curious and didn't care. Their reaction was similar when they first saw this scene, but in fact they were estimating the steel output of the factory.

"The annual iron production is 60,000 tons," Diana concluded.

"It's almost the same as the output of our Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant at the beginning, but I don't know how much steel is." Charles echoed.

At this time, someone walked to Charles and said to Charles: "Earl McGarden, please forgive me for being so arrogant."

Charles turned around and found that the visitor was a middle-aged man in a black tuxedo with a royal heraldry of the Kingdom of Fillingen and a viscount on his left chest. Behind him was a young woman in a black skirt and a white apron maid outfit.

The black tuxedo brought by the time travelers in the past became the iconic clothing of the butler in this world, just like the maid outfit. Whether it is the butler of the Wang family or the wealthy free folk steward, they must be wearing a straight-iron black tuxedo when they work.

The visitor wore two heralds on his chest at the same time, which showed that he was the housekeeper who served the royal family and also a viscount.

Wearing a royal emblem is like an imperial envoy holding a Shangfang sword, representing the dignity of the royal family.

"It's okay." Charles saluted him to show respect for the royal family of the Fillingen Kingdom.

The housekeeper said respectfully to Charles: "Recently, Count McGarden encountered some unpleasant experiences in the Kingdom of Fillingen, and my master apologized for this. I only send a small gift to Lucy Fillingen, the fourth princess of the Kingdom of Fillingen, Lily Fillingen, and Lily Fillingen, the fifth princess of Fillingen, and I hope Count McGarden will accept it with a smile."

After the butler said that, he turned sideways. Charles saw a pair of gorgeously dressed twin sisters who were about the same age as him, surrounded by aristocrats.

The maid walked to Charles with a tray in her hand, with a storage ring on the purple velvet cushion on the tray.

Charles bowed to thank the two princes, and then took the storage ring from the tray held by the maid beside him.

After seeing Charles bringing the gift under his command, the housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief and left with his maid after saying some scenes such as the pleasure of Count McGarden playing in the Kingdom of Fillingen.

Both of them had never seen Diana beside Charles's side.

After Charles turned out the window, he played with the precious storage ring in his hand and sneered twice.

A few months ago, before Charles' sister Mira left home to study, Charles' father taught his daughter many rules of communication between nobles, and Charles was also listening.

Without the conversation in the carriage just now, Charles would not have figured out why the Fillingen royal family would give him such a valuable gift.

According to common sense, the other party will send an entourage-level butler of the same level as him to apologize on the scene according to the principle of aristocratic communication and reciprocity. If you give face, give some small gifts that look good.

Now the other party sent a viscount. Although the level was a little lower, the other party followed the princess and finally gave a gift. The meaning behind this is worthy of fun.

The princess who came to the scene and the Viscount Butler when serving them, then the Viscount Butler came forward. In terms of the scene, it can be equivalent to the Earl Butler who serves the King. In terms of face, Charles and the Kingdom of Fillingen are not losing money.

The other party negotiated with Earl McGarden with the Viscount. If the Earl feels uncomfortable, you can use a viscount to vent your anger. Although the other party represents the royal family, it is not okay to directly greet the other party's female relatives, but it is still okay to use a little bit of rhetoric to greet the whole family of the Viscount.

In addition, the storage ring that must have something inside benefited Charles' face and the posture of the Fillingen royal family was a little low.

Combined with the conversation in the carriage just now, Charles estimated that the Fillingen royal family was stopping the loss and told himself not to add insult to the Fillingen Kingdom in court, especially when he ran away, he had an unpleasant thing with a count.

Charles had no intention of putting in the wrong hands on the Kingdom of Fillingen, but since the other party had given gifts, if he didn't accept them, the other party would think that he would never stop with them. So he simply accepted the gift.

Then Charles stuffed the storage ring into Diana's hand, and he said to Diana: "It's not convenient for you to go out without a storage ring, so I'll give it to you. If the things inside are back, you'll be 30% or 70% off."
