Chapter II Conditions

The conversation between Zhao Zhi and the patriarch Levi was very strange, and the Jewish priest sitting on the side with his eyes half-closed and Rowling with a bored face was in stark contrast to the two of them. Unlike Zhao Zhi, who has been smiling, the patriarch Levy, who speaks a standard London accent, is like sitting on pins and needles, there is no free lunch in the world, and the Jews who are as shrewd as foxes know this truth, and inviting Zhao Zhi to watch the ceremony is a decision made by more than a dozen Jewish ** families after discussion, and they want to know what the reason for Zhao Zhi to save them is. Receiving a million Jews from the Germans at once is not something that ordinary people can do, and listening to Rowling's words, this mysterious Chinese young man seems to have an unusual relationship with the German leadership.

Although the Jews had lost a lot of money in the German deportation, their deep pockets, and the fact that many Jewish families had secret savings in Switzerland, the Jews, who never put their eggs in one basket, should survive the predicament in front of them. What they care about now is Zhao Zhi's attitude, the gun handle is in Zhao Zhi's hands, and the defenseless Jews don't want to be the lamb to the slaughter. They needed to know what Zhao Zhi was going to do with them, the Jews could not just break away from the Germans and then fall into the hands of another brutal man, the guns carried by the ships that had gathered in the Suez Canal had already been known to them.

Seeing that Zhao Zhi's answer was watertight, the high priest who had been half-closing his eyes suddenly interrupted the conversation between Levi and Zhao Zhi, "Why can you understand our prayers?" The high priest stared at Zhao Zhi and asked, "Who told you?" Obviously, when the child was circumcised in the hall just now, Zhao Zhi and Ye Kong's whispering had already been discovered by the high priest, and the high priest with white hair would not be naïve to think that Zhao Zhi and Ye Kong were discussing what to eat for lunch.

"Are you asking this" Zhao Zhi, who had been waiting for the high priest to speak, smiled, "I used to have a very good friend who was a Jew, his grandfather was a high priest who knew Chinese, and we have been neighbors for many years, so I know a little bit about the history of your Jews, but unfortunately I only know some simple Hebrew" Zhao Zhi spread his hands helplessly, "So I have to speak English to talk to you"

"Oh, that's right," the high priest asked, with some luck, "and how much do you know about our Judaism?" In the face of Zhao Zhi's prevarication, a flash of wisdom flashed in the old man's eyes, and the excuse of Jewish sacrifice to his neighbor obviously could not dispel the doubts in his heart.

"I know that the ancestor of your Jews was called Jacob, and that Jacob was the grandson of Abram, and later changed his name to Israel, which means 'wrestling with God,' and because he hurt his hamstring while fighting God, you have to pick out and throw away the hamstring when you slaughter animals."

"Not bad" The high priest twisted his beard and jaw, and motioned for Zhao Zhi to continue.

Jacob had twelve sons, and his descendants formed twelve tribes, which were separated in Palestine and later united into a nation, with the great King David as king. Later, at the time of King David's grandson, it split into the kingdom of Israel and the kingdom of Judea, the former being destroyed by the Assyrians. The latter lasted for hundreds of years, and was later wiped out by the Babylonian Empire, the Temple of King David was destroyed, and the Jews were reduced to Babylonian slavery for thousands of years."

Later the Persian Empire wiped out Babylon. You were allowed to return to Palestine to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem, and later became subjects of the Greco-Roman Empire. A thousand years ago, the Jews revolted against the Romans, Jerusalem was breached by the Roman army, your temple was forcibly demolished, and the Jews were forced into exile all over the world, so you will exist according to the situation of the family" Zhao Zhi used a flat tone to tell the origin and bumpy history of the Jews, which made the patriarch Levi dumbfounded, because he had heard some things for the first time.

The high priest with a calm face held his beard, and although he looked fine from his face, his heart was overturned. He was the rabbis of the Jews, that is, the priests of this Jewish tribe, and the history of his people had always been regarded as the supreme secret, which was passed down from one priest to another, and was never known to outsiders. The tall Chinese young man in front of him can count as many treasures, how can you not surprise him? In their teachings, there is a kind of person called a 'prophet', could it be that this Chinese in front of him is a prophet?

The atmosphere in the study had obviously changed, and the High Priest and Levy had become serious, without the perfunctory nature of the beginning. "Mr. Zhao, since you are familiar with the origin and history of our nation, and you have just mentioned the holy city of Jerusalem, why do you want to move us Jews to the far east? Why can't we let us go to the Holy City? You can put forward your conditions, as long as we can do it, the Jews will definitely agree" Levi simply made it clear, and after a long time, they regarded Zhao Zhi as a profiteer who could not afford to make a profit, and helped the Jews escape from the war in order to get a payment from the Jews.

"Haha" Facing Levy's questioning, Zhao Zhile was happy, "Patriarch Levy, I didn't force you to follow me, I just helped you stay away from the war out of humanitarianism" Zhao Zhiluo rolled his eyes angrily with a ridiculous answer, they are all old people, and the ghost will believe Zhao Zhi's words. "However, I personally think that even if I let you go now, it will be difficult for you to live in Jerusalem by relying only on business activities, it is better to follow me, at least I have the ability to protect you" Zhao Zhi's words made Levi silent, a guy who can ask for a million Jews from the German army naturally has the right to speak like this.

"What does Mr. Zhao want us Jews to do?" The high priest said: "I can make a contract with you on behalf of the Jews, and if you can fulfill your promise, as long as it does not violate our faith and does not harm the lives of our people, we can do anything for you, and we will even give our lives for you" The high priest's words made Levi look sideways, he did not know why the always calm high priest would say such a thing, especially when they were facing a Chinese who did not know the roots.

"I don't need you to contribute anything" Zhao Zhi said lightly, "What I want to do is a win-win situation for both of us" Zhao Zhi did not directly say his intentions, he continued to hang the appetite of the high priest and Levy, he believed that as long as he threw that extremely tempting bait, the two people sitting opposite had no excuse to refuse, even if they were high priests and patriarchs, you know, the interests of the Jews have always come first.

"Win-win?" Although it was the first time I heard the word, it was not difficult for wise men like Levi and the High Priest to understand it at all. Zhao Zhi's desire to speak and stop tickling in their hearts, but as the proud existence of the Jewish nation, they can't be impatient to open their hole cards to Zhao Zhi, once that's the case, they will fall into weakness, and the Jewish shrewdness will never allow them to do this.

"Don't worry, listen to me" Zhao Zhi, who was playing with the coffee cup, said softly: "In the future, I will help you find your way back to Jerusalem and bring back new classics for you from Mount Zion, or if you want to go home, it is not impossible." ”

"Home?" The face of the high priest and patriarch Levy showed childish confusion, the Jews scattered all over the world have been in exile for thousands of years, wandering the seven seas, and can they still return home? "Well, these gifts are enough for us Jews to go to the soup and fire" Even though it was just a painting, it already made the old priest who was not surprised by the change of heart be excited. He pressed his heart and said in a trembling voice, "Tell me your conditions!" "With such a heavy gift, there are naturally heavier requirements to follow.

"I just want you to follow me and serve me" Zhao Zhi said lightly, but he was stunned by Levi and the high priest, and for a long time, this Chinese did not come to ask for cooperation, but to co-opt them. Although the Jews have a large population and have always shown a low-key appearance, this does not mean that they are weak. In the commercial societies of the entire world, the Jews with great business talents are like fish in water, and in the course of a hundred years, they have accumulated untold wealth. The two sides are like a mouse and an elephant, but at this moment the mouse wants the elephant to listen to him from now on, what do you say the elephant is feeling? If it weren't for Chen Ke's divine dao to suppress them and give such irresistible conditions, the two old men would have to send them off directly.

"In the future, I will obtain an independent land, a paradise that is not disturbed by a thousand disturbances, and a paradise on earth with superior conditions. If you come home and find that it is better to come back to me, I will allow you to move to my territory, and if you serve me all your life, I can give you this territory so that you can establish your own Jewish kingdom! Jerusalem is also a place of constant war, and you are too weak to hold it."

"I want to build a factory, I need a large number of workers and engineers, only a large number of industries can support sustainable development, I also need your Jewish business network all over the world to serve me" Zhao Zhi changed his words, with a hint of murder in his tone, "I also need an army, I need to select suitable soldiers from among the Jews to enter my army, I will provide them with the best weapons and training, five years, I only need them to fight for me for five years, after that, they will be your escort back to Jerusalem." You know, only the Jews who have lived through the war can truly protect your holy city."

"300,000, I only need to draw 300,000 people from among you into my army, as long as 300,000 people can realize your dream of returning to the Holy City, this price is still very cost-effective for you" Zhao Zhi said lightly that 300,000 young Jews would die for him, and he actually said that the Jews took advantage, and Zhao Zhi at this time was a demon with horns on his head in the eyes of the high priest and Levy.
