In the Indian Ocean, the sky is clear and cloudless, and the sun reflects the waves on the blue sea, showing the infinite charm of the sea.

On the deck of the ferry, Zhang Xiaojian sat on a white beach chair, and a sun umbrella blocked the "brilliant" sun.

It seems to be casual, but there is always an inexplicable coercion around him, which makes people dare not be disrespectful, and there is a sense of awe in his heart, so it seems very quiet on this ferry. Thirty priests and four bishops are reading the Holy Canon, they dare not relax in front of His Holiness the Pope, although this time to "conquer" the vast Africa, but still can not relax, Archbishop Li Liang once wrote in the Holy Canon: "Do not have any slack before the unknown future, even if you have absolute faith, the slightest mistake will lead you to the abyss." ”

This sentence has also become one of the rules that many believers abide by, and it has also made the beliefs of many believers more and more pious, and their strength will naturally go up. Therefore, this warning written by Archbishop Li Liang has led many believers to call it a classic.

This ferry can carry 10,000 tons, and this time Zhang Xiaojian brought thousands of tons of grain to Soma, a small country on the east coast of Africa. Soma has been in civil war for many years, so the whole society is very chaotic, and the lower classes have become seriously difficult to eat.

Tens of thousands of people die of starvation every year, a place where Western Rome does not want to reach out. Of course, the whole of Africa was not placed within the scope of the Roman mission, Africa was so poor that there was no income at all to set up a diocese in this place, and even a lot of money had to be invested in it every year.

But this is only a Roman idea, and what does not have any interest is undoubtedly the work of a fool. Of course, it is also possible to unify African countries, but this is absolutely not allowed to happen, international treaties state that they cannot meddle in the internal political situation of other countries, and those big countries also do not want the chaos of African countries to be integrated.

In the eyes of others, it is a poor place, but in Zhang Xiaojian's eyes, it is a huge mountain of faith resources, and in the eyes of those churches on the earth, it is useless to absorb more believers, the poor cannot bring them benefits, what they need is people with wealth, these people are their economic resources.

As one of the poorest countries in Africa, Soma has a population of tens of millions, which is undoubtedly a huge burden. Even with the support of other countries, the internal chaos cannot be resolved for a day, and it will be impossible for a day to eat.

In Zhang Xiaojian's view, Soma's domestic situation is very much in line with his own requirements, the domestic situation is chaotic, which is conducive to his ability to intervene, the barren country is conducive to the spread of faith, and the citizens in Soma's country are very satisfied, and they only need to be fed. As for the rest, I'll talk about it again.

The ferry travels on the sea, leaving waves in its wake.

……

Soma, Africa, the port of Sori, is a very simple port, but it is the source of food and daily necessities for the whole of Soma, and there will be aid from the United Nations every month, of course, there is also food purchased by local warlords in Soma, and there is also an arms deal.

The port of Soma is almost the safest place in the whole of Soma, because this port is too important to affect the daily necessities of millions of people in the country, and if there is any mistake, then the whole country of Soma will fall into an even more chaotic situation, and no warlord wants such a thing to happen.

Entering, as usual, the inhabitants of Sori worked hard for a meager wage, where labor was already horribly cheap, and at the end of the day they could afford to feed themselves, and if they still had families, then unfortunately they had to eat only carefully.

Remembering the sound of the boat, all the residents raised their heads and smiled, because once the ship arrived, then it meant that they did not have to worry about the price of food rising this month. The sea is not a safe place, but a ferocious beast.

In the event of a storm or other unexpected circumstances, the grain merchants who trade with Soma will delay until the weather improves before coming to trade again, during this period of time, all kinds of daily necessities will rise, the increase may not be very large, but for these Soma citizens who receive a meager salary every day, it is a considerable wealth.

A huge ship docked at the port of Sori, and a team of Soma policemen immediately stepped forward, this is a test, in case it is dangerous goods entering Soma, of course, if the other party takes out the relevant documents, they will generally not be embarrassed, like this has a big identity, far from what a few of their small Soma policemen can afford.

The landing gear slowly stretched out and descended to the shore of the pier, and there were already many Soma residents around, they were curious, they wanted to see the excitement, such a huge steamer dazzled them, compared to this kind of ferry, the appearance of the cargo ship was too different, the appearance of the ferry was gorgeous and exquisite, they rarely saw it, because no ferry would think of such a poor and war-torn country.

Dozens of figures appeared on the landing frame, when the Soma people saw the leader of the man, their hearts were shocked, they knew that the other party was definitely not an ordinary big man, the gold-rimmed robe on the body looked incomparably luxurious, like an emperor walking in the world.

The police also showed stunned expressions, and they could feel a heavy pressure coming on them from a distance, as uncomfortable as a pinprick, and at the same time, an urge to surrender rose in their hearts.

Zhang Xiaojian looked at the thin Soma people watching below, and then glanced at the slightly obese policemen, and sneered in his heart. He didn't want to say anything like this, and the treatment was naturally different depending on the rank.

"I wonder what happened to my country?" A policeman hurriedly stepped forward and asked, so they would not believe that the other party was here for a vacation, and that vacationing in a poor country like their own is undoubtedly something that only people who want to suffer can do. From the other party's dress, the noble momentum revealed from the whole body undoubtedly shows that the other party is unusual.

Zhang Xiaojian didn't speak, and Bishop Zhou Jue on the side stepped forward, "We are here to find General Bowei, please tell me, just say that I, Zhou Jue, are here!" ”

"Zhou Jue?" The policeman was stunned for a moment, it was obvious that this name was the name of an Asian, although they had not learned much, but the phrase "well-informed" was not nonsense, and he had been inspecting the port of Sori all year round, and he had seen many merchants from other continents outside. There were also many Asian merchants who would trade in Soma in exchange for mines and pearls that Soma had produced.

It's a pity that although Soma is good at producing pearls, pearls are firmly controlled by warlords in Soma's own country, and they are not allowed to flow into the people. In different places, the natural value of the goods owned is different, because people's values are different.

Hearing the other party's words, the Soma policeman was shocked at first, the other party actually had a friendship with General Burville, which showed that the other party must be from a foreign Shili.

But then he was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to do, General Burville was not something he could see, the other party was a general who had a territory southeast of Soma, and had an army in his hands, although it numbered only a few thousand, but it was also a warlord, far from being seen by his little Sori port policeman.

"Your Excellency...... This...... This...... Although there is a special line for almost all the generals of the Solie country in the port of Sori, you have to go there in person, and you can't call the special line without the relevant certificate. The Soma policeman's face was about to become bitter, and he was afraid that the other party would think that his attitude was not good enough, and when the time came, he would participate in a book in front of General Burville, and it would be a trivial matter if his position was not secured, and it was the real sadness to be dragged out and shot.

Although the Soma police are under the control of the Soma Police Department, in fact, the Police Department is only a department with little real power, and it is dispatched by all Soma generals, and in the event of a war, it can run away regardless of both ends, and it is usually used to settle down for law and order.

The Soma civilians looked at the usually high-minded Soma policemen who were so cringe, and made them leave one after another, afraid that the other party would kill them if they disagreed, this kind of thing has happened several times in the port of Sori, and the other party did not care about the safety of their civilians when they fought.

The lesson of blood taught the Soma civilians when to dodge and when to watch.

The crowd dispersed, and the entire port recovered, and the Soma civilians continued to do their work, while Zhang Xiaojian and his party did not dare to take a look.

"I see." Zhou Jue looked at His Majesty the Pope apologetically, he didn't expect such a thing to happen.

Zhang Xiaojian didn't say anything, but flapped his fingers slightly, telling the policeman to leave.

When the Soma policeman saw the other party let him leave, he quickly returned to the police team if he was amnesty, and then after some conversation, the Soma policeman quickly left, leaving a few people by the way to guard this huge ship to prevent some daring Soma civilians from wanting to steal it and take the food in it, if this adult knew, it is estimated that they would not have many days to live. This happened many times in Soma as well.

This Sori street is really not very prosperous, it was messy along the way, Zhang Xiaojian frowned for a while, in this port Zhang Xiaojian walked so far and saw a shopping mall, saying that the shopping mall is actually just a larger supermarket.

"Zhou Jue, do you know Boville?" Zhang Xiaojian suddenly remembered that Zhou Jue, who had been promoted to cardinal by himself, said that he knew a general from Soma, which made Zhang Xiaojian a little curious.

Zhou Jue didn't hide anything, "Your Majesty, I once had an arms doctrine with Burville, and you know that this business is very profitable. ”

After Zhang Xiaojian heard this, he didn't think much about it, so he came to Soma, and he needed to explore the bottom first, and then spread his faith. A population of tens of millions is indeed a huge temptation, which makes Zhang Xiaojian can't help but be moved. It's much more lenient here than it is at home.

Thirty pastors are scattered in pairs, and a large group of people will attract attention, and now is not the time to get attention.
