For Europeans, religious belief begins the moment they are born and baptized and stays with them for the rest of their lives, all the way to their funerals.

Then the Knights Templar, as the most powerful weapon of violence in the Catholic Church, has a position in the hearts of Europeans.

Although Qin Zhiyuan knew the status of religion in Europe, he always ignored this point, intentionally or unintentionally, because in the East, there was no monster like Catholicism.

Qin Zhiyuan, the Grand Master of the Templar Order, apologized for using the adjective "monster" to describe Catholicism, but Qin Zhiyuan insisted on doing so.

Catholicism has a transcendent status in Europe, and as a religion, it can override the imperial power, and Catholicism is indeed wonderful.

The Oriental people could not understand the status of Catholicism, because in the East, religion had always been only a tool used by the emperor to consolidate his dominance, and the status of religion had never surpassed the imperial power, not to mention that the Pope could decide the attribution of the throne at will, which was simply nonsense.

Think about it, if the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom called the abbot of Shaolin Temple "kiss Dad", what a discordant scene it would be!

The same is true for ordinary people in the East, where there are very few devout religious believers relative to the huge population base of the East. Ordinary people in the East can only think of religion when they need solace for the soul, and at other times they can't think of a temple or a church in a corner of the city.

It is precisely because of this that religion in the East has always been centered on promoting the cycle of life and death, so the great monks only appear when they are performing rituals, just like coffins, reduced to funeral props and other cups.

It is precisely because of this that most religious believers in the East are elderly, for the simple reason that they have entered the twilight of their lives and have begun to fantasize about joining the cycle of reincarnation and starting another life.

To put it simply, I am afraid of death.

Only those who are dying need solace in their hearts, and young people believe in themselves more. They themselves are their own popes.

If nothing else, Qin Zhiyuan should have decades to live, and he will die early, so Qin Zhiyuan does not believe in Catholicism.

But as the Grand Master of the Templar Order. Qin Zhiyuan had to force himself to believe, even if he was pretending, he had to pretend to be a devout believer, so on Sunday morning, Qin Zhiyuan deliberately went to St. Peter's Basilica. For the first time in his life, he participated in a Sunday event.

It was indeed the first time, Christmas was not counted, and Qin Zhiyuan didn't even really enter the church that day.

Orientals refer to Sunday activities as "observance of prayer", and Westerners refer to Sunday activities as "doing prayer", and from the name, we can see the different views of the East and the West on Sunday activities.

For Westerners, Sunday is the Sabbath, and going to church on this day is to feel the glory of the Lord, thank the Lord for His gifts, and be sincere. So it's about taking the initiative to "do".

For Orientals, going to church is like going to jail, but in order to show that they are believers, they have to force themselves to be passive and "guard".

Qin Zhiyuan is also passive.

Maybe Qin Zhiyuan had a conflict with the church in his life, and as soon as he walked to the door of the church, Qin Zhiyuan was stopped.

"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, General Qin." The person who came was neatly dressed and polite, and handed over a gilded business card with both hands.

Qin Zhiyuan looked at the person in front of him, about 40 years old. High nose bridge, deep eye sockets, blue pupils, and two delicate beards. The tail end is slightly upturned, the chin is square, the edges and corners are sharp, and the facial contour lines are very clear, looking square, but with a smile that makes people feel like a spring breeze. The man wore a top black hat. Wearing a black striped tuxedo, a vest of the same color underneath, and a black bow tie, the white shirt is more conspicuous, this is a very strict person.

Sure enough, his business card was clearly written: Gary Parker, sales manager for the Portsmouth Rovers Union shipyard.

Portsmouth, known as the "Home of the Royal Navy" in England, has a large number of shipyards and is the main force of the British shipbuilding industry, and plays an important role in the British shipbuilding industry. It is with the strong support of the Portsmouth shipyard that the British can occupy eighty percent of the world's shipbuilding share.

Although the shipbuilding industry of the Americans has developed rapidly in recent years, on the whole, the shipbuilding industry of the British is still the first in the world, and Portsmouth has contributed a lot.

"Hello, nice to meet you." Qin Zhiyuan expressed limited goodwill, he had not yet figured out Gary's path.

"Hello, if you can, I'd like to have a cup of coffee so we can talk about warships." Gary blinked rapidly, as if he were releasing some kind of code.

"Of course, I'd love to." Qin Zhiyuan is positive.

What does drowsiness meet a pillow? What does it mean for a cat to meet a small dried fish? What does it mean for a husky to meet a mouse?

That's it!

With the well-developed service industry near the Vatican, Qin Zhiyuan and Gary found a café at random and ordered two cups of signature coffee.

"I heard that you recently wanted to buy a couple of destroyers, I wonder what kind of requirements you have?" Gary is a great salesman, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he found Qin Zhiyuan's G-spot......

"I want warships to be mainly used to escort ships, so first of all, we must have strong anti-submarine capabilities, followed by speed, and then we must have a certain ability to attack ships, we must be equipped with torpedoes as much as possible, and then we must have a certain ability to attack shores, and finally we must reduce the number of operators as much as possible." Qin Zhiyuan listed the requirements.

In fact, the main task of a destroyer is anti-submarine, and Qin Zhiyuan's request to have a certain ability to attack the shore is more for consideration after returning to the Far East.

Qin Zhiyuan refused to stay in Europe forever, and there was always a time when the war against the Germans would have to stop. After Qin Zhiyuan returns to the Far East, the Japanese will be Qin Zhiyuan's main opponents. The Japanese don't have so many submarines for Qin Zhiyuan to rebel against, and if the film is opened at that time, the destroyer will assume more "breaking relations" functions.

"So, please take a look at this." Gary took out a document from the leather bag he was carrying, and handed it to Qin Zhiyuan with both hands: "This is the British H-class destroyer, also known as the Acorn-class, with a displacement of about 750 tons, a crew of 72 people, 13,500 horsepower, a speed of 27 knots, equipped with two four-inch naval guns, two twelve-pounder naval guns, and two torpedo tubes. On the latest model, the H-class destroyers are equipped with the latest Canadian submarine detectors, as well as the latest radio transmitters. The point is that there are four warships that have just been launched, parked right in the shipyard in Portsmouth, and as long as you nod your head, they will be docked in Bastia for a week at most. "Gary is very business-savvy.

The port of Bastia was not suitable for use as a military port due to the lack of water depth. The unsuitability here refers to the fact that the port of Bastia cannot dock large warships, such as the British and French dreadnoughts, which cannot dock in the port of Bastia.

But the destroyer is different, the destroyer with a displacement of only 750 tons is a toy compared to the dreadnought with a displacement of about 20,000 tons, and the draft of the destroyer is not even as good as that of some large freighters, and there is no problem at all in docking in Bastia.
