Chapter 182: Sagrada Familia
Bishop Giovanni immediately changed his kind expression: "Good boy, are you going to donate one of the largest churches in Rome?" Something is wrong, St. Peter's Basilica is already the largest in the world, there is no point in building another one, it is better to see a few more churches in other places, the Middle East has just won some territory, and it is urgent to sow the glory of the Lord in the past......"
it! The old guy is really a money-eyed good.
"Stop!" Xu Zhonglin interrupted him: "It's not in Rome, what do you think of it in my town guard's mansion?" ”
"Your town guard?" Bishop Giovanni frowned, puzzled.
"Yes, although I don't know why, you are not angry when I call the old man and the old bastard, you must really want to go to the East to preach, right? You won't put satellites? ”
"Put satellites?"
"It's a lie, or a confusing concept. What do you think about the concept that the world's largest church is about to sit in the East, and that you nominally built it by the bridge? Who dares to say that the gospel of the Lord has not been sown to the East? And the church will almost not be built without 180 years, and by that time, I guess you will be hanging, why do you care so much? ”
Bishop Giovanni seems to have been beaten with chicken blood, and now he is made into a mummy, and after 1.8 million years, he can make a bloodstone seal when his face is scraped off: "That's right! Churches can be built, and who would dare to say that this is not a missionary success? How big can you build? ”
"How big is the largest church now?"
"It is St. Peter's Basilica next to it, the main hall is 186 meters long, about 15,000 square meters, and can accommodate 60,000 people for worship at the same time. The total length is meters, and the area is about 23,000 square meters. ”
"Then let's build one that can hold 100,000 people!"
Is Xu Zhonglin dying? Of course not, he thought about it, in order to take care of Sissi's faith, his town guard must have a church, in fact, there are already many similar chapels in the East to take care of some Westerners living there, but the priests inside are not allowed to go out to preach. Although there is talk of a fashion week in Nicobar Island at the moment, the gimmick is not enough, and the construction of the world's largest church is good big news. Just like the world's tallest building in Dubai in the previous life, this is free advertising. As for the outside, it can be said that she pampers her own ship mother and makes them bigger. The church can be used as a tourist attraction until it is completed, and tickets may be sold in advance.
Bishop Giovanni shook himself unconsciously: "100,000 people! 100,000 ......"
"Hey! Old man, old man! Old immortal, don't hang up, wait for me to run out first! Xu Zhonglin picked up the tea on the table and poured it all over Bishop Giovanni's face.
The old man came back to his soul and said to him solemnly, "This can't be faked! ”
"Of course, don't cheat, first demarcate the place, and build it slowly. It's hard to say when it will be completed. Churches, who can say for three to five hundred years? Just let the news out first. ”
Bishop Giovanni was obviously not a very religious person: "Yes, yes, the news will be released. Do you have design drawings? ”
Xu Zhonglin thought about it seriously, took a piece of paper and drew a sketch: "There really is one, what do you think of this?" Eighteen 170-meter-high minarets. The interior is supported by some load-bearing columns in the shape of tree trunks, and I don't understand the rest of the reliefs and murals. ”
The old man frowned: "Okay, yes, your design style is Gothic, and it is suitable for use as a church, but what is the meaning of your design?" ”
! Where does Lao Tzu understand this thing, it is a cottage according to the original world's largest unfinished building, the Sagrada Familia Cathedral, but it has been magnified many times. According to Xu Zhonglin's thoughts, the original design was complicated enough, and it hadn't been built for hundreds of years, let alone this one, which was just in line with his mind. As for the details, how does he know?
"You make it up yourself. The drawings are there, now it depends on your business level. "Somebody kicked the ball back.
Not to mention, Bishop Giovanni's professional quality is still excellent, and he is not in a hurry to speculate on the meaning of this church: "The tallest tower represents, of course, Christ, and then the others, in turn, the Virgin, the author of the four Gospels of the Bible, and the twelve apostles." There should be three relief facades, the east for the birth, the west for the crucifixion, and the south for the glory. In keeping with the Holy Trinity...... Boy, you're a great artist! ”
Xu Zhonglin didn't eat this set, he stretched out a hand, rubbed his thumb and forefinger together and made an international gesture: "It's useless to praise, what about the benefits." ”
"What? In the service of the Lord, you still want benefits? ”
"How fresh? With such a big satellite, how much political risk I am taking, do you understand? If you don't do well in the East, you will be destroyed for this reason! At that time, the church may be demolished before it can be built. You don't want to officiate at ten or eight weddings to send me away, you have to give benefits. ”
"Who dares?! The destruction of churches is the enemy of the entire Western world! You can rest assured that I will see who dares to attack when the time comes, rest assured, I will launch a holy war and organize a crusade to help you. "The old man's eyes were cracked, but fortunately he wore a small hat on his head, otherwise his hair would be a lightning rod.
Xu Zhonglin waited for this sentence, having such a cathedral at home is equivalent to an extra gold medal for avoiding death, and he decided to plan the location of the church after he went back, preferably in the port. When the time comes, if someone is going to attack his town, he promises to lie down resolutely, and will inform the other party: Come! Don't pity me because I'm a delicate flower. It's just that there is the largest church in the world next door, so beware of your cannonballs don't hurt it.
At that time, most of the admirals on the European side will have to be bogeyed. But the Admirals of the East will definitely not eat this set. So the old man promised the crusade gods, Xu Zhonglin treated him as a fart, and this kind of empty promise couldn't send him away:
"Don't try to play white strips, have some real hard dishes! Dry goods, you know? ”
"That, you see...... Our church relies on voluntary donations from believers. You're going to have to pay for the construction of this church. ”
"Holy! Do you think I'm a little admiral with that much money? At most, I'll give you a plot of land and dig a foundation. You'll figure out the rest yourself. You Catholics have built so many imposing churches, and thieves have money, you won't be so stingy, right? If you don't give benefits, you can play by yourself! "Xu Zhonglin is not afraid that the old man will not cooperate at all.
"You're blackmail! You will go to Hell, and Christ will punish you with God! The old man pointed at him angrily, and let his daughter be ruined.
"Cut! I said it all, I have a Buddha on my head, your boss is only 12 younger brothers, and my boss has 800 Arhats, don't be afraid! Jesus can't keep me from eating, don't you? ”
"A battlecruiser prototype ship mother!" Bishop Giovanni gritted his teeth and spat out the good.
"Four battleship wives!"
Bishop Giovanni's eyes were red, and he was in danger of bursting at any moment: "Are you crazy?!" I guarantee that this ship's combat power is stronger than the average battleship! ”
"Oh? Tell me about it? ”
"Bloody Mary!"
