Chapter 839 Infernal Affairs
"We will not be short of food for many years now..." After hearing Li Huailin's report, Anthony here was also a little amused, but it was not worth any compensation. This was cool enough.
However, in fact, the gains from humans are also very rich, mainly because of the addition of dwarf craftsmen. The value that these super cheap skilled workers can create for humans is very terrifying. The effect will naturally be reflected over time. Although they do not get a lot of money at one time, the actual effect is also very good.
"Where is the area of Sakhamela?" Anthony looked at the report and asked again. Like the undead, humans also asked the dwarves for a piece of land, but Anthony didn't know where this area called Sakhamela was.
"Your Majesty, Sakhamera is an area in the northwest of the dwarves, bordering us humans. It is famous for its blue-green crystal ore and red-fly rock production. It is a very good rare ore production area." The more learned Prime Minister Mah replied immediately next to him.
"Yes, there are a lot of dwarf slaves. All of them are sent there to mine. Didn't it mean that dwarf mining is also very good?" Li Huailin said with a smile. Of course, he had no idea about this place before, and Su Ruoyan also helped him see it.
"Your Majesty, the blue-green crystal ore is all alchemy materials, while the red-fly rock is the material needed for forging some special items, and they are all very important resources." Mah explained again.
"Oh, that's it." Anthony nodded, "Huilin, I'm lucky to be in trouble this time."
"It's okay." Of course Li Huailin is fine. He has made a lot of money. Su Ruoyan over there is already counting how much money he has made. Including the robbery and the treaty, it is estimated that it will be no less than 30 million gold coins.
"Remember this credit first. When the war against the demons is over, we will praise them together." Anthony said here.
"Your Highness, the church's people are here." As he was speaking, the head of the knight, Del Nath, came over and said softly in Anthony's ear.
Anthony here immediately frowned. It is not a good thing for the people of the Light Church to appear now. The other party's purpose is probably the Archbishop Dragusby who is still in the prison. After all, the cardinals of the Light Church have been arrested, and the other party cannot just let him be locked up here. However, the matter of the Light Church helping the rebels also made Anthony very angry. Now that the other party wants to take the people away like this, Anthony feels naturally uncomfortable.
"What's wrong?" Li Huailin asked as Anthony's expression changed.
"The people from the Light Church are here to ask for people." Anthony naturally would not hide it from Li Huailin, and said immediately.
"That Dergusby?" Li Huailin nodded. This was something that was expected, but he didn't expect that the other party would come so quickly.
"Damn it, if it weren't for the people of the Light Church, I would have cut him down long ago." Anthony said, "Now the people of the Light Church are going against me, but I can't touch them. After all, the Light Church is still very powerful in our country and has a high prestige among the people. It's really troublesome."
"It's really annoying." Li Huailin also said. He was disgusted by the people of the Light Church several times, but there was really no good idea.
"Although other theocracy have begun to spread in China now, after all, the time is too little. The Church of Light will be the largest church in our country in a short period of time. However, they obviously do not like me, the new ruler, which is very unfavorable to my rule." Anthony said in annoyedly, "Wilin, is there any good way to quickly disintegrate the power of the Church of Light?"
"Oh... religion is the most difficult thing." Li Huailin said, "After all, faith is really troublesome."
"Your Majesty, this aspect must be progressive step by step." Mah, who was next to him, also said, "After all, the church is so powerful that it is impossible to get them out without more than ten years of hard work. This is a long-term battle."
"I know, Prime Minister." Anthony here just complained, and he knew it was not so easy to deal with. "Oh... it seems that he will bow his head again this time. It's really... If only Huailin, you are the Pope."
"Oh?" Anthony's casual words suddenly flashed in Li Huailin's mind: "Wait, Anthony, what did you say just now."
"Oh? That's what I said you are the Pope?" Anthony asked a little strangely.
"That's it!" Li Huailin suddenly shouted, scaring Anthony here.
"What's wrong? I'm just talking and having fun." Anthony said.
"No, I have thought of a solution. Since the outside cannot be broken, let's start from the inside and send spies in." Li Huailin said.
"Oh... I've never thought about sending spies to the Church of Light? But it's very difficult to be honest." Anthony said here. "The first is that although it's easy to enter the Church of Light, it's too difficult to enter the top leaders of the Church of Light. The bishops in various regions are basically the confidants of the Pope, and the inheritance of the bishops is also hereditary. The review of the Church of Light is also very strict, and it's difficult to get in. The second is that the Church of Light is too tempting. Some spies themselves are influenced by the God of Light and have really become their believers. This is very difficult to do."
"It's okay, it's okay. I know there is someone who is deeply trusted by the Pope and will never believe in their religion." Li Huailin said with a smile.
"Oh?" Anthony asked strangely, "Who?"
"Ahem, it's me." Li Huailin raised his head and said.
"Ha?" Anthony was stunned, "Uh... Huailin, everyone knows that you are from me. The church is now a semi-public hostile relationship with us. How can we trust you?"
"It's okay, I have a solution. Anyway, I'm very empty lately, so I'll sneak in and take a look first." Li Huailin said.
"Are you serious?" Anthony said with some concern. Of course, the main thing that the church was detained by Li Huailin.
"Of course it's serious." Li Huailin said, "Don't worry, can the Light Church still influence me? I really don't believe it."
"Uh... Forget it, since you want to try it, just try it." Anthony here thought about it and felt that it was unlikely to succeed. If Li Huailin was really detained by the people of the Light Church, he would take the army to ask for people. Anyway, he would have seen the Light Church unhappy for a long time. If it really starts, the war will start.
"Okay, no problem." Li Huailin said confidently, "Since that's the case, call the church people up first, and I want them to help me bring a message to the Pope."
Soon, two people from the church were brought up, and the Church of Light also inherited its previous arrogant personality. This time, when they came to ask for someone, the other party actually photographed two ordinary priests coming over, looking very unhappy, and walked into the palace carelessly.
"Lin Den (Joni), a priest from the Church of Light, met His Highness Anthony." The two bowed slightly to Anthony, as if they didn't talk much to him.
This arrogant attitude made Anthony angry a little more: "Why are the two pastors here?"
"I heard that our Cardinal Degusby was detained by His Highness for some reason, and I wonder if we can take him away." Lin Dern, who was here, stepped forward and replied.
"I don't know why?" Anthony sneered, "What's your archbishop helping the rebels to threaten our country's politics, but you don't know why?"
"This is definitely a slander." Lin Deen said immediately, looking indignant. "How is this possible? Our church has never interfered in the internal affairs of the country, so this is absolutely impossible."
"Millions of people in the main city can testify, can you say it's a misunderstanding?" Anthony said.
"This is impossible. Your Highness can ask casually. This is definitely not true." Lin Deen said confidently. Even if it is a fact, as long as the church says something, will the civilians still dare to say it, right?
Anthony naturally saw what Lindeen said here, and once again sounded the alarm to the church, which was definitely a huge threat.
"Your Highness, our bishop just accidentally passed by there, and was taken away by you because of this misunderstanding. Of course, we understand the situation at that time, and the Pope will not pursue this matter. We hope to release our Bishop Dergusby immediately." Lin Den said again.
"Search me?" Anthony here just wanted to get angry. When Maher next to him saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately stepped forward to remind him. Anthony also realized that it was not the time, so he could only swallow this. Of course, he didn't want to talk nonsense with them at this time. He waved his hand and said, "Let the person go to the prison to get the people."
"Thank you, His Highness, the Emperor of the Human race." The two smiled, as if they had expected this incident.
"Wait for two." Li Huailin suddenly stood up and said.
"Oh? It's the Duke of Aquitaine." Seeing Li Huailin, the two people here suddenly changed into a smiling expression. After all, Li Huailin still has a high likes in the church now. "What's wrong with him, sir?"
"Well, you are going back to see the Pope now." Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, go with Bishop Gusby to report to His Highness the Pope." Lin Denn replied here.
"Then ask the Pope, can I join the Church of Light?" Li Huailin said.
"What?" Lin Deen here was stunned, "Duke Aquitaine, do you mean you want to join the Church of Light?"
"Yes, how about it?" Li Huailin asked.
"This is really great. Of course I can't make the decision. I will tell His Highness the Pope immediately. Please wait for the good news." Lin Deen said.r1152
