Although the Duke of Bavaria was the focus of Arold's attention, he had to prepare for the fact that the ceremony of naming his eldest son was usually the result of naming a noble child with the participation of friends and family, and the baptism and naming of the priest in the church was carried out.

The church in Mecklenburg was not affected by the war because of its remote location, and even the reliquary was transferred back to the church in time without being damaged.

"Holy Blessing, I thought I was going to be ruled by those heretics this time?" The guild leader wore a flat pie hat, and as a token of his gratitude to Arold for leading the townsfolk in their brave fight against the Pomeranians, they had been invited to join him.

"It's not the blessing of the Virgin, it's the Duke who led the army in time." Soros said beside the guild leader.

"Why is a Jew here?" The guild leader complained to Soros that Jews had their own religious rituals and places, and that they were often alien to Christians.

"I'm here as a courtier of the Duke." Soros was dressed like any other Germanic people, but there were also Jews who questioned his behavior, because Jews had a strong sense of self-esteem and superiority, and they considered themselves the chosen people, so they refused to incorporate into the cultures of other peoples.

"Poor Soros, even if you try your best to help the Duke, you still can't hold an important position." The guild leader looked at Soros, who was dressed like a Germanic nobleman, but said disapprerovantly, Soros's ability really made the guild leader feel admired. However, his Jewishness was not destined to hold an important position in Arrod's court.

"Shhhh Soros stretched out his index finger and said to the guild leader. There are many things that he does not have to explain to others.

"Yiyi, ahh The choir sang in the church, and a solemn and solemn atmosphere permeated the entire church. Beside the fountain of holy water in the direction of the altar, Arrod, Duke of Mecklenburg, his wife, Princess Josie, and important courtiers gathered around, and the wife of Matthew, the mayor of the town of Wismar, carried Arrod's eldest son, who attended as the godmother of Arold's eldest son.

"We awarded this special boy a name worthy of him." The priest said after baptizing Arrod's son with holy water in his robe and a pastoral rod in his hand.

"William. William. Wendell. Arold whispered excitedly to the pastor that this name would be held by many prominent people throughout history.

"William. Wendell. "Princess Josie was dressed in a long white dress decorated with pearls and gold thread. The whole set of clothes cost Arold a hundred silver, but the people looked at this beautiful and elegant princess, and inadvertently added a lot of impression points to Arold's dynasty.

"William. Wendell, William, William~~~. "The people in the church chanted the name of Arrod's eldest son, and the reproduction of the heirs of the Arold dynasty meant the long-term peace and stability of the country, which was excellent news for the people who were sheltered by Arrod.

"William. Wendell will be the rightful heir to my Duke of Mecklenburg, and my courtiers, you must be as loyal to me, to my lawful and noble son. Arold took his son, and he held up his heir and announced loudly to all his courtiers.

"We swear eternal allegiance to you, Lord Duke. and your rightful heirs, and will do everything in their power to assert their rights. The courtiers knelt down on one knee and swore an oath to Arrode's heir.

"We will live happily ever after." looked at his courtiers with satisfaction. Arold held her son in her arms, and with her other hand, she took Princess Josie and whispered softly to her.

The name day of Arrod's eldest son became the official holiday in Mecklenburg at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, and was celebrated every year on this occasion, and Arold's court set up long wooden tables in the town square of Mecklenburg, and offered abundant food and fruit to the people of the town for free consumption, and of course on this joyous occasion inevitably served wine and the like, and a hundred barrels of ale were placed in the open air on the square.

The name day was celebrated with singing and dancing, but Arold returned to Mecklenburg after a symbolic presence. He didn't rejoice with the people because he had more important things to do, and Soros followed Arold as he walked through the halls of the lords.

"How's the construction of Soros' lending house?" Arold sat on the lord's seat. The hall was empty at this point, and there was no one but two personal attendants. Among the courtiers, only Soros stood in front of Arold.

"Money houses have been opened, but the merchants are generally on the sidelines, they don't trust the Jews." Soros said helplessly to Arold.

"Well, do you have any other concerns?" Arold smacked his lips, he knew that only by mastering the financial industry could he get the most profits, the Duchy of Mecklenburg was just the beginning, Arold's ambition was to dominate the entire Baltic coastal territory, and it would be impossible to plan it without a large amount of financial support.

"Mecklenburg is still a frontier territory in the eyes of many people, and without famous people to publicize it, there will not be too many people to borrow money." Soros said to Arold.

"I'll deal with this matter, it's okay to tell me that I have those difficulties, and we will overcome them." Arold said to Soros.

"You know, Lord Duke, that we Jews are not allowed by law to buy and sell land and do handicrafts, so we can only engage in the financial trade, but the Church considers borrowing to be a sinful thing, and many devout believers refuse to borrow." Soros saw that Arold's attitude was so resolute, and finally said his inner thoughts to Arold.

"I know that the church forbids people to do business and borrow money, but the church has accumulated a lot of money." Arold sneered contemptuously, but he could only say it at this time when there was no one around, after all, he wanted to erect the image of a devout disciple for the people.

"Lord Duke, I also know that this matter cannot be changed in the short term, and I can only wait for people to gradually change their minds."

"That's right, I'll try to satisfy them with the church and not get involved in the loan house, and you have to run the loan house successfully." Arold assured Soros.

"Yes, Lord Duke, I will do my best." Soros said after bowing to Arold. (To be continued) R466
