Chapter 1477: Preparation Before Departure

Originally, in history, Leo X succeeded. He became pope and restored control of Florence to the Medici family. Of course, he was not the only one who wanted to restore the Medici rule in Florence, but also his cousin, Pope Clement VII of the Medici family. It was at the foot of the efforts of these two Medici popes that the Florentine region, which had been annexed by the Papal States, was divided again......

However, in and John. After Tezel had agreed, Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Meditics found a serious problem, and it seems that all of this needs the support of the Pope! Without the support of Pope Julius II, everything they negotiated was illusory......

But he was too worried, because Marin had already secretly greeted his father-in-law. When Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. When the Medici approached Julius II for support in a nervous mood, Julius II readily agreed to his request.

However, in order not to be scolded in the future, Julius II wrote an authorization to Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. When the Medici went to Germany to issue a papal encyclical of "indulgences", they began by stating that "this is Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Medici took the initiative to ask for it". In this way, even if the Germans scold their mothers in the future, they can't blame themselves.

As for being able to collect money and get credit? Will Julius II care? He is already a pope, and it doesn't matter if he has merit or not. What if you give more credit? He has already made himself the highest level of pope. Unless you can go to heaven, you can't ascend. Therefore, with these credits, he might as well sell his favor and give it to Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. What about the Medici.

At the time of writing the papal encyclical, Julius II "amiably" and Giovanni . Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Medici talked, and vaguely pointed out that it was the result of Marin interceding for you.

And then, Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. Naturally, the Medici were very grateful to Marin. And after seeing the papal encyclical that he "took the initiative to ask for funds for the renovation of St. Peter's Cathedral", Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Medici was so excited that she almost jumped.

This may not be of much use to a pope like Julius II. However, for him, a cardinal who aspires to succeed him as pope, it is a gift from heaven! As long as he could get a lot of money from Germany and share it with the cardinals, his popularity in the Holy See would skyrocket...... When the time comes, the certainty of taking over the pope will be even greater......

Once Julius II died, he, a cardinal who had enough prestige in the Holy See, and then relied on the support of the Bank of Siena, which opened with Marin, and the bankers of the city of Florence, to bribe those cardinals who had the right to vote, and was elected pope.

……

After getting the Pope's Passage, Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. Medici begins with John. Tezer began to get busy, preparing for a trip to the German region to collect money.

While he arranged for craftsmen to print large quantities of "indulgences" needed to sell them, he had people make a huge banner out of fine velvet. Then, arrange for the embroidered women to embroider the contents of the Pope's Encyclopedia on the banner as a pomp and circumstance when selling indulgences.

After all, Marin also said at the beginning that if you sell religious things like indulgences, you must dress up holy enough and have a strong aura. In this way, the common people can be frightened and made them willing to pay for the "indulgences......

Therefore, in addition to the embroidered papal encyclical, a variety of matching ceremonial guards, crosses and flags are also needed. In short, the bigger the formation, the better......

In addition, John. After listening to the religious divine comedy "The Mass" sung by the Holy See Choir, "composed and composed" by Marin, Tezer had a whim and asked Giovanni to do so. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Medici assigned a choir to their ranks. In each city, the choir will sing "The Mass", a fiery religious divine comedy, in unison when entering the city, mobilizing the emotions of the people and making them more fanatical......

Originally, John. Tezel was a member of the choir who intended to dig up the Lateran Temple directly. After all, these people often sing "The Mass", and they are already very proficient in singing, and they are absolutely proficient. If you bring it to Germany, the performance will definitely be good.

However, Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. When the Medici applied, they were directly rejected by Julius II......

Why? Because the members of the Holy See choir were all family members of the leading figures of the city of Rome, or the clergy of the Lateran Temple, and they were of a higher rank. People are all rich and noble people, why should they talk to John. Tezel, a country church judge with a bad reputation, went to the German region to suffer? You know, John. Tezel's team, however, was going to travel all over Germany, and ordinary people might not be able to endure this hardship. Therefore, the bigwigs of the Holy See choir must not be happy to go.

In desperation, Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Medici had no choice but to obtain a warrant from Julius II to allow John to obtain a warrant from Julius II. Tezel went to the small church in the countryside of the Papal States, and selected young junior deacons (the lowest priests) and some low-ranking nuns who were young and sang well, and formed a choir to follow John. Tezer went to the German region to support the scene.

These young clergy and nuns, powerless, had no choice but to accept the selection unconditionally in the face of a warrant issued by the Pope himself. Then, follow John. Tezeer went to Germany to run errands. Although it is hard, because they are all young people, they can withstand it.

And, Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Medici also passed through John. Tezel promised the chosen young monks and nuns that if they behaved well, they would have the opportunity to be transferred to the holy city of Rome in the future. If the performance is particularly outstanding, you can also upgrade the level......

This temptation is not small, just like a teacher in the countryside in later generations, someone from above said to run an errand with me, and then transferred you to Beiping No. 4 Middle School as a teacher...... This is special, as long as you are not willing to be a salted fish teacher, you must be happy......

Moreover, they are not worried about being scammed. After all, now Giovanni . Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Medici had a great reputation in the Holy See. The clergy of the Italian region knew about Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The Medici may well become pope in the future. Therefore, I am not afraid that he will break his promise...... If it were replaced by John. Tezel himself made this promise, and it is estimated that no one believed it......

……

Eventually, by Giovanni. Advance. Lorenzo. Morality. The resounding fame of the Medici, John. Tezel succeeded in assembling a choir. Because it is carefully selected and takes a route similar to the draft (the difference is that the mentor comes to the door to select), the selected choir members are very talented in singing. The only drawback is that the tacit understanding of the chorus is not enough. After all, this is an improvised choir, and there is no tacit understanding at all. If you want to sing neatly, you have to train hard.

Fortunately, these young choir members with no background are honest and willing to follow the conductor. As long as you keep training, when the time comes, you will be able to perform well when you sell "indulgences......

Just wait for the choir to be trained, John. Tezer was going to lead his team to Germany to make money. This time, he will return to Germany as an "envoy of the Holy See" without worrying about being harassed......
