Randolph and the CIA people left in despair. After all, they had to obey the president's orders.
The Pope's assistant felt surprised and asked: "Your Majesty...why did the president of the United States call?"
The Pope touched his beard and said calmly: "Let me ask you, when did this Mr. President take office?"
"It seems like three years ago..." The assistant was startled, then thought for a long time and replied.
"So, what is the most important thing for him this year?" the Pope asked calmly, as if he was testing his assistant.
The assistant was stunned after hearing this and said: "The president of the United States has many important things..."
After he said this, he was stunned again, and then suddenly realized: "You mean, he is going to canvass votes in the election in order to be re-elected in the next term!"
The Pope said: "Yes, think about it, how many believers of our holy religion are there in the United States?"
The assistant was stunned and said: "The proportion of Holy Religion believers in the United States is about 85%, almost 240 million people."
As an assistant to the Pope, he is naturally very clear about these data of the Holy Church. After all, the Pope has to pay attention to the changes in these data every month.
These data can directly reflect the development and influence of the Pope on the Holy Religion.
"This is the answer." The Pope said very wisely.
The assistant suddenly realized that the reason why the President of the United States was paying attention to this matter and warning the CIA was because he was about to hold a general election that would determine whether he could be re-elected!
If he offends the Pope at this time, he will probably lose more than 50% of his votes with just one word from the Pope!
After all, there are so many Holy Religion believers in the United States, and the Pope is the Holy Lord’s only spokesperson in the mortal world. Doesn’t his words, in some respects, represent the Holy Lord’s will?
"If CIA is not 100% sure of getting rid of me, then the president of the United States will never agree to their actions." The pope said calmly.
"As long as I still wear the papal crown, it is impossible for the Americans to touch me."
The Pope has been running the Holy Church for so many years and has a solid foundation. Even if the CIA has complete evidence, it will not be easy to unite the major plutocrats to move him.
Moreover, once he takes action, it will be equivalent to the Pope breaking away from the current U.S. government. As long as he is not kicked off the throne immediately, the re-election of the current U.S. president will be very dangerous.
What's more, there is not just one party in the United States at the moment. While the Pope is wrestling with it, another party may come to contact it, which will form constraints and make it even more difficult to shake the Pope's position.
The reason why Clark asked Randolph to bring evidence to the Kingdom of God to negotiate with the Pope was because he did not expect that Qi Dangxian had such an important position in the Pope's mind.
After all, when wrestling with the U.S. government, it is not only the current U.S. president who has to bear the risk. The Pope is also at risk of being pulled down. After all, the United States is the world's number one superpower.
The assistant admired the Pope so much that he said: "Your Majesty is wise! However, is it worth the stalemate in relations between Archbishop Qi and the American government? Moreover, that General Clark is notoriously strong."
The Pope said coldly: "No matter how strong the U.S. government is, it doesn't matter to me. Can they give me money?"
The assistant was stunned when he heard this.
"Pooh!"
The Pope spat and changed his words: "Can they give me so much money to develop the Holy Religion? Those shrewd American businessmen will be empty even if you pluck out their eyelashes."
The assistant was speechless.
"So, for the development of the Holy Religion, for the promotion of the Glory of the Holy Lord, and for the way of the Great Holy Lord to be carried out in all countries in the world, I need a genius like Archbishop Qi! Only he, not only asking me for funds, can even
It will continue to generate income for my teaching, and at the same time, it can also vigorously develop the culture of my teaching." A satisfied smile appeared on the pope's face, thinking of the small island he bought.
When the assistant heard this, he couldn't help raising his fingers and thinking secretly.
Qi Dangxian joined the Holy Cult and contributed six billion meters of gold.
Then, he started working with the mafia in Italy and built a wine estate to generate income for the Holy Church.
Then, he caught a big fat sheep like Pei Buqi from the Huameng Chamber of Commerce in Xiangshan, and also obtained 10% of the annual income from Lei's Ship for the Holy Sect.
…
…
He was counting, but he couldn't figure it out clearly. All in all, Archbishop Qi had generated too much income for the Holy Religion.
The money spent on buying holy water and blessings can only be considered a small amount, so don’t mention it...
While calculating, the assistant also felt that the Holy Church cannot live without Archbishop Qi, just like the West cannot live without Jerusalem...
"Yes, it's hard to find someone as pious as Archbishop Qi. He devotes himself wholeheartedly to the development of the Holy Religion and constantly generates income for our religion. He is truly a model among bishops and an elite among believers!" the assistant gave a thumbs up.
said the Pope.
"You think so too, don't you?" the Pope said proudly.
The assistant said: "But... there is one thing I have to mention, Your Majesty... the level of calls for alignment with the Archbishop in the Holy See has reached 80%."
When the Pope heard this, he couldn't help but be startled.
"Nowadays, the sacred secrets are being passed down in the church, and some people are calling for going to the East to invite Archbishop Qi to eradicate the heresy of Aba Sect." the assistant reminded.
The Pope's face began to darken.
Qi Dangxian demonstrated the "Holy Secret Technique" in front of Robben and others, and it was widely publicized in the Holy Cult. His reputation suddenly became great, and he also wiped out countless heretics, which made his reputation even higher and higher.
Thinking of the "Holy Mystery", the Pope couldn't help but be so angry that his tooth ached. It was a trap he dug, but he only got 10 million gold. Qi Bianxian sold it to Robben for 100 million, and by the way
Then he kicked him, the Pope, in, and Robben, a stubborn guy, was still filling the hole with soil, and was about to bury His Majesty...
"Oh no, go and bring Randolph back!" The Pope angrily slammed the table, stood up and roared crazily.
"Your Majesty, forget it, calm down..." The assistant grabbed the Pope, fearing that he would run out.
The Pope angrily said: "He must be eliminated!"
The assistant said: "Your Majesty, you can't have trouble with money!"
The Pope was stunned, then calmed down. He took a deep look at the assistant and said, "Weren't you like this before?"
The assistant said seriously: "Your Majesty, it doesn't matter whether you have money or not. The main thing is for the development of the Holy Religion and for the Holy Lord's glory to shine in every corner!"
The Pope choked hard at this sentence. Why did he feel that this sentence was so familiar?!
He was a little dizzy and angry. It seemed that it was not a wise thing to introduce Qi Dangxian into the Holy Cult and give him such a position...
