Chapter 808: Vatino and Zhou Chen's Meeting
Vatino took Zhou Chen to see all kinds of magic in this temple, and Zhou Chen finally confirmed that in this land of China, he must be able to find a master, Zhou Chen said lightly to Vatino: "The trip to the West is really worthwhile." ”
Vatino smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou Chen, we are bathed in holy light, I see that you and my lord are also very fateful, it is better to ......"
Unexpectedly, Zhou Chen interrupted Vatino's words stiffly, and said with a smile: "That's not necessary, Mr. Vatino, I want to discuss with you about the mysterious sects of China and the West, I don't know if it's possible?" ”
Vatino naturally welcomes it, like Zhou Chen, a powerful man with first-class financial resources in the world, who wants money and money in his hands, and wants people, how can Vatino let it go? Even the Rothschilds are willing to discuss with him, so will they be able to get a piece of the pie? The Western Holy See has a clear law that members of the Holy See who have passed the age of 70 will retain honorary titles, but will no longer be granted real power.
And the clergy of the Holy See, who are over eighty years old, retain their honor and can no longer participate in the meetings of the Holy See, Vatino is now nearly sixty years old, and Pope Julius II is only forty-five years old, it seems that it will not be a problem to be a pope for another thirty years, so although he Vatino has the right to vote for the pope, when will it be his turn? What's more, if there really comes a day when he controls all the things in the Vatican and all the things in the sect, I am afraid that before the throne of power is secured, he will have to choose an heir.
Since he can't be a dragon among people, then he can only let himself live in glory and wealth for the rest of his life, and Vatino has only this way out, and Julius II is not a good master, maybe one day, he will give himself an honorary title, be named the central bishop, and then empty his own power is not yet known, all this, although Vatino has the means to deal with it, but if it really comes to that day, can he still make waves?
Thinking of this, Vatino has already made up his mind in his heart, cooperating with Zhou Chen is undoubtedly the most correct choice, maybe he can really get the glory he wants, even if he can't be like Zhou Chen, at least he can leave an inheritance to his youngest son George, this child's life is too hard, his eldest son has died in the battle of the Holy See, then this younger son, he must be saved.
With a smile on his face, Vatino smiled at Zhou Chen and said, "Mystic Sect? What is that? ”
Zhou Chen only had a blueprint in his heart at this time, and there was no actual plan and action, all of which were still in infancy, only to see Zhou Chen ponder for a moment, and then he spoke: "Mystic sect, that is, to gather people with special abilities or special teachers in the world, these people, whether rich or poor, can join the association, merge China and the West, whether it is the East or the West, you can, the headquarters is set in France, what do you think?" The association will get my money every year to be used as funds, and these people with all kinds of abilities need to sign contracts with me, and I will hire them to become my strength. ”
Zhou Chen only thinks of this for the time being, his most important purpose is to find a capable person, so as to open the door to the mysterious door, at the same time, if Zhou Chen has such power in his hands, then who else can be his opponent?
Vatino nodded and said, "This force should belong to the association, if it belongs to you personally, I'm afraid it will not be easy to do." ”
Zhou Chen also had these concerns in his heart, and even said: "That's fine, but where is the future development direction of this association?" What should it be? ”
Vatino is worthy of being a cardinal archbishop who has been eating tea for fifteen years, and I saw him smile and said: "This is easy to do, the purpose of the association's bed companion is to pass on the mysterious sects and secret techniques that have been handed down, so since this is the case, I believe that there will be many people willing to join, and furthermore, once the association is established, it will be a force that should not be underestimated, so that the possibility of the development of the association is very large, no matter which side of the force, they all hope that people with such strength can help themselves, which is also the source of income for the association." ”
Vatino's plan is very powerful, and the true purpose of the association has been revealed in an instant, and Zhou Chen's investment cannot be in vain, since this is the case, Zhou Chen nodded and said: "In this case, then it will trouble Mr. Vatino, there is still my Ghost Face Army in the Hunter Academy, and I am also actively training the students of the Hunter Academy to make them real Ghost Face Army soldiers, if there is still this association, then I believe that we will be able to become the focus of all forces." ”
Vatino smiled faintly, in fact, the most important thing is the problem of funds, how much does it cost to make such a big show as Zhou Chen? Once a talented person joins in, what is the commission? Coupled with the station, construction, and base of this association, these are not small amounts, although Vatino knows that Zhou Chen is rich, but after all, he doesn't know how much money he has, so to speak, if Vatino is not because of the recommendation of the Rothschild family, he really doesn't know Zhou Chen!
I only looked at the sect king from the east and smiled faintly: "I don't know how much money I have, but I have the final say on how much I can invest." ”
Vatino watched as Zhou Chen stretched out three fingers, but just for this moment, Vatino was stunned: "Thirty million francs? ”
Zhou Chen shook his head.
Vatino patiently continued to guess: "Thirty million euros? ”
Zhou Chen still shook his head with a smile, and Vatino said suspiciously: "Could it be 300 million?" ”
Zhou Chen's face didn't matter: "300 million? Isn't that a petty fight? I want to collect heroes from all over the world, not a small charity! ”
After that, Zhou Chen smiled and said to Vatino: "I have invested three billion US dollars, as the foundation of mystical sect research, these funds are only for simple investment, if I still need funds in the future, I can continue to support them." ”
Zhou Chen's voice was faint, but Vatino was tired of a mouthful of saliva.
"Boom."
Vatino couldn't believe it, the young man in front of him opened his mouth to say three billion dollars, how rich is this?
Zhou Chen smiled indifferently and said: "Mr. Vatino, I have tentatively set the capital in Europe at three billion, and after it is completely launched, I still need to establish such an association in the East, so the investment is considerable, with a total investment of six billion dollars, what do you think?" ”
Vatino was really a little surprised, he couldn't imagine that Zhou Chen's appetite was so big, not only to invest in the West, but also to invest in the East? In this way, this association is a gathering place for talented people and strangers in the world, since Zhou Chen has this idea, it is precisely the name of the club that is the king of the ghost-faced military sect from the east, and his appetite is too great!
Vatino was surprised: "Mr. Zhou, can you tell me what exactly you want?" ”
Zhou Chen looked at Vatino with a smile, "What I want is to explore the inheritance of these capable people and enter the higher realm, this mundane world is actually not suitable for the cultivation of cultivators, maybe it can be said that I don't even want to stay here, my heart is all to the Tao, and pursuing a higher goal is my truest purpose!" ”
After Zhou Chen finished speaking, he looked at Vatino with a smile on his face, Vatino was thoughtful, yes, he Vatino is the cardinal archbishop of the Western Holy See, the most trusted partner of Pope Julius II, and also a potential opponent, he has been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and finally reached the peak of this power, becoming a papal cardinal above one person and under ten thousand people, then what he thinks about next is only his way out after retirement and the glory and wealth of his descendants, he never thought of the existence of heaven and the Lord, and he didn't want to go there, In this world, he is the uncrowned king.
Vatino looked at Zhou Chen, and seemed to see a stream of mystery from this young man, pursuing the ethereal Heavenly Dao? This young man's appetite is really not small, in the Western Holy See, there are only more than 30 popes who have been canonized as "saints", and in the thousand-year-old inheritance, there are 300 popes, and those who have been canonized as saints are also people with certain abilities, just like John VI, the ancestor of Julius II, he is a pope who can really communicate with God, and can be described as a servant of God in the true sense.
Although these still exist in legends, it is undeniable that he is real, and there is a copy of it for the world to see, but within the Holy See, there are also these miracles, such as John VI, who was originally just an inconspicuous sectarian servant, but was granted the power of a cardinal bishop by the first pope, and was sealed in Ireland, in his later career, it can be described as a step to heaven, he is the messenger of God.
And that week, I'm afraid that's all you want to explore, right? Vatino thought to himself.
"What's the matter, Your Excellency?"
Vatino shook his head, crossed his hands on his chest, and looked at Zhou Chen with sincere admiration, "Mr. Zhou's move can be said to bring together talented people from all over the world, which is really a good thing." ”
And when Gildas and Gust heard the conversation between Zhou Chen and Vatino, Gust, who had always been restless, immediately said: "What? Are you going to gather masters? ”
"Mr. Zhou, I hope to join your association and compete with many masters!" Gildas also followed in Gust's footsteps and said lightly.
Zhou Chen looked at the two people in front of him, and smiled: "Naturally, it's okay, but I'm afraid I'm going to wronged the two, in the association, who is the road, I will treat everyone equally, there is no distinction between high and low, no matter what position you are or the nobles of the palace, in the association, there are only family members!" ”
Gust and Gildas glanced at each other and nodded, and then, Vatino said to Gildas: "Gildas, you have to do your best to help Mr. Zhou, and as for the Holy See, I will come forward." ”
Vatino naturally thought a lot in his heart, this matter could not be done by him alone, then it must pass through the Holy See, and the Pope himself must know and sign the ordinance, which is equivalent to showing the strength of the Papal States, and at this point, Vatino is very sober.
Immediately, with the thorough negotiation between Wattino and Zhou Chen, this time the business officially kicked off, and even Zhou Chen never thought that he could gain so much, Zhou Chen looked at Wattino, and Wattino also looked at Zhou Chen at this time, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Vatino immediately ordered his entourage behind him, "Bring the wine!" ”
After that, I saw a high-ranking papal seeman step down from the car, holding a gold plate and wine glass in his hand, and said respectfully to Vatino and Zhou Chen: "Your Excellency, Mr. Zhou, please use it." ”
Zhou Chen took the lead in raising his wine glass and motioned to Vatino: "Success!" May our cooperation go all the best! ”
