“…… Only 10 million taels of silver in total? How is this possible!

The capital of the Roman Empire, the thousand-year-old center of Christianity, and the spiritual hub of the European Catholic world, can only squeeze out such a little oil and water? …… Could it be that the city of Rome has really been squeezed to the limit, and it can't squeeze more oil and water? Or are some of them asking for money and dying? ”

Looking at the account sheet in his hand, Liu Feng and the alliance leader of Wanli Killing, Li Yutang, and a group of cadres looked at each other. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Don't look at it, they have carried out some acts of distributing modern medicines for free to many people in order to sell people's hearts.

But this is a drop in the bucket compared to drugs that are sold for a fee.

Along the way, in various cities and countries, Liu Feng and them secretly made a lot of war money in the name of the church, and so far, they have only made tens of millions of taels of income. More than half of the income in the dark has been transferred to Daming's side.

I thought to myself, Rome is a super city, how can it be here and make a fortune, right?

However, plans can't keep up with the changes.

As a result, after half a month, I found that through the change of dressings and other names, only about 10 million taels were obtained.

In the face of Liu Feng's inquiry, Wanli killed the alliance leader, and after thinking about it, Yutang thought about it and replied: "General Liu...... I'm afraid it's the limit. When I was extorting the local church and its congregation, I had already removed all the gold and silver ritual vessels, the statue of Jesus and the statue of Our Lady from the church. In many remote villages, I am afraid that there is not even a single gold coin! ”

If you leave Yutang, in fact, Liu Feng has had self-guesses based on intelligence, and it feels similar.

It's just that when I think of the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, I was a little helpless for a while.

In fact, if they weren't for the church. It is really impossible to find so much money in the city of Rome in half a month.

Moreover, the city of Rome, although it is still ranked among the best in Europe. But after all, it is no longer the world metropolis of the Roman Empire.

In recent decades, not even the Catholic Church has been a residence!

The so-called rich people in the city may not be as good as the well-off people in later generations. As for the poor in medieval Europe, I don't know why they still survived.

Because they may be even poorer than the poor people of the Ming Dynasty.

A set of clothes can be passed from grandfather to son, and then from son to grandson, as a family heirloom. This is unimaginable in the Ming Dynasty, it is simply a world record.

In this case, Liu Feng and others can still squeeze out an income of 10 million taels in just half a month in Rome City, which can already be described as commendable.

In fact, if Liu Feng and others still want to continue and make a fortune in Rome, it is estimated that they will have to rob the tombs of the popes of the past dynasties.

However, after all, everyone is nominally a member of the church, and you go to rob the Pope's tomb, will it be too much?

Moreover, once discovered, this really can't pass this hurdle.

No matter how lacking the discipline is, there is no need to reduce the money for the tomb, after all, Europe is not like the Ming Dynasty, and there will be too many valuable things in the mausoleum!

All in all, no matter from what point of view, the people in Rome have been squeezed by Liu Feng and others. If you want to continue to make gains, you can only set your goals farther.

What, you say don't look at the cities, aren't there still many European peasants in the villages?

Well, the peasants in Europe in this era are hundreds of times worse than the peasants of the Ming Dynasty, so it's better not to beat their ideas and accumulate some virtue.

No matter how you look at it, the European peasants in the Middle Ages were very bitter, bitter, bitter.

He usually lives in a dilapidated hut and sleeps with pigs and goats. I can't eat all year round, and I may not be willing to make a new dress in my life. It's rare to eat meat once during the Chinese New Year!

They must also meet the strict demands of their lords, endure poverty, and plague. Being able to live to the age of 40 is already considered "high life", and the average life expectancy is estimated to be only over 30 years old!

Judging from the information that Liu Feng has in his possession, the disparity between the rich and the poor in the entire European society has reached the extreme. Extremely limited wealth was concentrated in cities, castles, churches and monasteries.

99% of the poor are worse off than dead.

(Think of New China, no matter how poor we are, we can eat meat every day, and every month we have a little money to buy something and clothes on Taobao.) It's like living in heaven! ）

In this way, the next target can only be set in other European cities. For example, Venice in the north, Florence, and so on.

Only with enough money, as well as modern medicines, can we recruit troops and horses, and strengthen the ranks and momentum.

For this reason, Liu Feng and the others made a plan, and everything else was easy to discuss. There is absolutely no room for error in this regard!

After a meeting and discussion, the second city goal was finally set in Florence.

Firenze is a city in central Italy, the capital of Tuscany, located in the basin of the western foothills of the middle Apennine Mountains.

From the 15th to the 16th centuries, Florence was one of Europe's most famous art centers, famous for its arts and crafts and textiles. The birthplace of the European Renaissance movement, it is also a world-famous cultural tourist attraction in later generations.

Legend has it that Florence was first founded during the reign of Caesar in the Roman Republic, and in 59 BC Florence became a Roman colony.

Later, it was ruled by the Lombards, and in the 13th century, it rose to prominence due to the rapid development of the wool and textile industries, and became an important city in Italy at that time.

It is a masterpiece of the highest degree of urbanization in Europe and one of the most prosperous cities in Europe.

The first modern diplomacy, finance, science and technology, and maritime trade, as well as the first humanist art and literature, gave birth to the wisdom that would make Europeans proud of the world in the future.

What, celebrities such as Leonardo da Vinci, Dante, Galileo, Raphael, Michelangelo, Titian, Boccaccio, Petrarch, Machiavelli, etc., were basically born here, or lived and lived here.

It can be said that it has a lot of ties to the city.

Of course, it is not these that attract Liu Feng and others the most, but that there are many businessmen here. With their rights, they could even collect war and commercial taxes here.

Moreover, at this moment, Florence, like all cities in Italy, was overshadowed by the Black Death and other germs.

In the past, while selling people's hearts, they also sold a large number of modern medicines, and they gained both people's hearts and money.

And inquire for more information, sell more informants, dump more goods. Recruitment, as well as recruitment. Kill more than one stone!

Unlike cities that are not shocked until the end of their lives, the city of Florence received news of the plague last year. It's just that the environmental sanitation of this era is too poor, and I still get hit.

Many businessmen are still persevering and have not died of illness. As long as they can survive, I believe that they are willing to go bankrupt to buy magic medicine and believe in the dragon.
