Salt Lake City, Utah, the city founded by the Mormons is arguably the youngest major city in the United States. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn 1847, 148 ****** persecuted by the Christian Church came to the desolate salt lake and built the city.

Along the way, countless ****** were killed, including their president, Smith. However, at this time, Brigham Yang, known as a prophet, stepped forward and led the followers to survive in the desolate valley.

At present, more than 50 percent of the people in the entire Salt Lake City area are ****** Christians, and every aspect of the city is controlled by Mormons.

Although the U.S. government has been mixing sand with Salt Lake City, using the copper ore found here, it has brought in countless miners from the Pacific, South America, and Africa in the hope of reducing the population composition of ******.

But at least in recent years, the pagans have not been able to influence the leadership of ******. Because until 2016, when Zhou You's rebirth, it was still controlled by Mormons.

In addition, in the following decade, ****** became the fastest-growing religion in the United States, with more than 5 million followers in the United States and Canada alone, and more than 10 million believers in the world, becoming the fourth largest religion in the United States.

In China, the first impression of all those who know ****** is that this is a cult, and the main reason is the ****** system of remarriage.

However, in his previous life, he lived in the United States for six years, and he knew very well that this was actually an ordinary religion, which was fundamentally different from the cult in everyone's mind.

Zhou You himself is a person who does not have a religious belief, and for him, it is better to rely on himself than to pin his hopes on an ethereal spiritual sustenance.

But if he doesn't want to be boycotted by Western society, if he wants to maintain his relationship with several women without being criticized by public opinion, then he must put a layer of camouflage on his behavior.

In addition to ******, he also considered ****** religion, but ****** religion only allowed four wives, and he didn't dare to say how many women he would have in the future, so he still chose ******.

However, there is one thing that travelers mind about joining this sect, and that is their system of tithing. This system of tithing is actually about giving one-tenth of one's income to the church.

It is also because of this system that ****** has become the richest church in the world. Although there are only more than 10 million congregants, they receive $5 billion in donations every year, and the Church controls businesses and assets as much as $40 billion.

Although Zhou You needs this coat, if he is asked to donate one-tenth of his income, then he will be reluctant. You know, he is the man who wants to become the richest man in the world, and he gives so much money to others for nothing, and it hurts to think about it.

Therefore, he had to inquire about the specific situation first, and if he really couldn't discuss it, then he would definitely not join this church.

Coming out of the airport, two Mercedes Benzes arranged by the Hilton Hotel in Salt Lake City picked up Zhou You with Paris and a female bodyguard, a lawyer, and Paris's photographer and hairstylist.

I never need bodyguards when I travel, I bring two female bodyguards, and I use them more as assistants. As for the photographer and hairstylist, it is an indispensable configuration for Paris to go out, although Zhou You personally does not like it, but he is now building the Paris brand, so he also accommodated her.

"Sir, are you going straight to Temple Square?"

"Just go over, I don't have much time, and I'll be back to Los Angeles in the evening."

It's September 9th, and I'm going to Las Vegas tomorrow night to compete. And the day after tomorrow will be a big day, and after the day after tomorrow, he must be honest in the United States. At such a time, he did not want to touch the sensitive nerves of the American government.

The car drove along the wide road towards the city, with lush trees and sparse houses on both sides of the road, although it was a city built on the Gobi Desert, but the greenery of Salt Lake City was quite good.

Zhou You had never been to Salt Lake City in his previous life, and he didn't know anything about it until he saw a square arena printed with huge busts of Carl Malone and John Stockton, and Zhou You knew that he had entered the city.

The driver turned around and said with a smile: "This is the home of the Jazz, Energy Solutions Arena." Once you're past the arena, you'll find your destination, Temple Square. ”

Zhou You nodded, he likes sports, but he just likes extreme sports and water sports, he still likes football, but he has no interest in basketball.

Although the NBA is very popular in China, especially after Yao Ming logs in the NBA next year, the sport has really entered a booming period in China, but in the United States, the NBA will always be the third in the millennium, and it is even worse than a racing competition, and it has never become a national sport.

At that time, Zhou You would rather watch a few rugby games, watch a few Premier League games, the Champions League, and rarely pay attention to the NBA.

Instead of continuing with the driver's excitement, he changed the subject and asked, "It's the weekend, is there a priest in the temple?" ”

"Of course, Mormon never refused to serve any people."

Zhou You nodded and looked out of the car. Paris followed his gaze and saw two young worshippers helping an elderly couple down the stairs. "Salt Lake City is the safest city in the United States because of its ******, and the thefts and homicides here are the fewest in the United States."

Zhou You nodded, and said with a sigh: "This shows that ****** manage this place very well." ”

The car stopped at the edge of the square, and Zhou You got out of the car with Paris, took a look at the Salt Lake City Temple in the distance, and walked over, the scenery around him did not interest him in the slightest.

The two young priests approached Paris and handed them a map detailing information about the Temple Square, as well as some taboos.

Only the courtyard on the first floor of the temple is open to the public, and the rest of the temple is only accessible to the faithful.

Zhou You read some introductions, took Paris directly to the reception, and chose a middle-aged priest sitting behind a table and walked over. "Hello, I'm Evan Zhou from Singapore, I've always been interested in ******, I want to know, what do I need to do to join your sect?"

"As long as your heart is to Christ, we are open to anyone, please be seated."

Zhou You and Paris sat down across from him, and he began to talk about history and the present, and gave a detailed account of the development of their sect in Southeast Asia.

Zhou You was not interested in any of this, and finally waited for him to finish, so he asked directly: "I know that your sect has a tithing system, I don't know if this situation is voluntary or compulsory?" ”

Still smiling gently, he said, "Of course it's voluntary, we never force any disciples. However, only sincere believers can truly attain the destination of their hearts. ”

"How about a million dollars a year?"

He couldn't keep a gentle smile anymore, and asked in some surprise, "What?" ”

Zhou You leaned back in his chair and said with a smile, "I mean, I donate a million dollars to the denomination every year and become a member of your church, but no one in the church should beat me with the idea of tithing. ”

He understood at this moment and said, "We are not a cult, and we will not infringe on the private property of any of our followers, please rest assured of this." ”

Zhou You nodded and said, "If you can call the shots, then I can go through the membership procedures now." But only if we sign a contract to join. ”

He beckoned, and the lawyer, who had been watching from a distance, walked over briskly and took out a printed contract from his purse.

Zhou You handed him the contract and said, "These are some of my conditions and obligations for joining, but I don't think you should be able to give me an answer in the first place." But I'll be in Los Angeles for a few days, and if you accept that, you can have your Los Angeles priests sign me up, or call my lawyer directly. ”

This middle-aged man was completely confused by Zhou You, he took the contract, and still said: "This is a membership, not a business." ”

Zhou You stood up, looked at his badge carefully, and said with a smile: "Mr. Raphael, for me, this is business. ”

It wasn't until Zhou You walked out of the temple that Paris couldn't help but laugh. "My dear, I am afraid that you have turned that Mr. Raphael's mind upside down. I can't help but want to laugh when I think of his expression. ”

Zhou You hugged her body and made her face herself. "My dear, for me, in addition to family affection, including love is just an exchange of conditions. Although I don't think I'm a businessman, that's because I always like to be straightforward when I do business, and my lack of patience is my biggest weakness. But I like to use business to solve problems in other areas. ”

But Paris blinked her eyes wide, and said in a bit of confusion: "It's so profound, I don't understand it." ”

Zhou You almost fainted, let out a long sigh, hugged her and turned to leave. But she was still curious: "Why don't you go on?" I don't understand it, but I think it makes sense. ”

Zhou You gave her plump buttocks a slap. "Shut up, or I'll shut you up passively."

She didn't have the slightest fear, and said with a smile: "Are you thinking about it again?" Is my technology getting better and better? ”

Unbeknownst to them, just as they had a lap around Salt Lake City and returned to Los Angeles, a big discussion about them was taking place in the Temple.

It is not difficult to check the identity of Zhou You, Paris is even more famous in the United States, the two of them have not returned to Los Angeles, and their information has been placed in front of many people.

After some serious discussions, Zhou You's application for membership was finally approved.

Although ****** rich and rival the country, there is nothing to do, and the donation of one million dollars a year is not a small amount. (To be continued.) )
