Chapter Forty-Three: When Gold Coins Swim Against the River
"Father Yang Ping, Father Yang Ping, what's wrong with you?"
Eliza pushed Yang Ping, who was petrified in front of the prayer table, until now she couldn't believe that Yang Ping could use the holy light to bless this magic, you must know that Yang Ping had just graduated from the priest's school for half a year, no wonder his grandfather would let him be the acting priest of the church. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info but I don't know why, my spirit is always a little trance today, could it be that I have stayed up too late these days? No, wait, I'll have to go back and get some sleep.
"No, nothing." was pushed by Eliza like this, and Yang Ping finally came back to his senses, "By the way, Eliza, why did these brave men leave like this?" ”
Until now, Yang Ping has not figured out why these brave men walked so directly, obviously they had to give gold coins when they were resurrected, and they worked so hard to bless them with holy light and left without even leaving a fart, where is the heavenly reason, where is the heavenly reason! I only have 13 gold coins left in my pocket now, so what can I do for a priest who aims to become the richest man in the world?
"Ah, by the way, Father Yang Ping didn't speak, I almost forgot, the Holy Light blessing is the help provided by the Templar Church for the brave for free, and when Grandpa leaves, let me explain to you the daily work of the Paul Cathedral." After listening to Yang Ping's words, Eliza immediately remembered what her grandfather had explained, and she had to assist Father Yang Ping in the work of the Paul Cathedral this month, and when her grandfather came back, she would definitely scare him.
"What, free, free?! No, no, I mean the daily routine? Isn't it good for the priest to just stay in the church and help the brave man who came to the resurrection? The word free was like a hammer slammed into Yang Ping's fragile heart.
"How is it possible, Paul's Cathedral is not an ordinary village church. Quasimodo rings the church bell at 6 a.m. every morning, and from the moment he rings the bell, Paul's Cathedral is officially in working order. From 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. is the time of prayer, and in addition to the weekly prayer days, some of the residents of the town of Aram also come to pray, so the priest must be present. ”
"Why do you have to be so early every day?" Yang Ping's heart was hit hard again, although he didn't count the money and count the cramps in his hands when he was a priest in Longdong Village, except for the weekly prayer day, he slept until he woke up naturally.
"Daily 8 to 11 a.m. and 1 to 5 p.m. are the normal opening hours of Paul Cathedral. Because a large number of brave people have gathered in Aran Town during this time, and the monsters on the Rand Grassland have become more and more powerful, the number of brave people who come to resurrect will definitely not be small. Eliza didn't listen to what Yang Ping said at all, and was still introducing the work of Paul's Cathedral to herself.
"8 to 11 a.m., 1 to 5 p.m., right? Don't worry, I won't forget it. "The life of making money will not be forgotten even if Yang Ping kills the Split Empty Seat, thinking of this, Yang Ping feels that his heart is not so painful, compared to the resurrection of the brave, the free holy light blessing is not worth mentioning at all.
"Oh yes, Father Yang Ping, since you have helped grandpa so much, then stay here for lunch and dinner during this time, and I can express my gratitude for grandpa." Speaking of eating, Eliza's eyes immediately lit up, what kind of dishes are you going to prepare for lunch today, is it braised pigged pork or stir-fried leafy vegetables? I remember that Father Yang Ping seems to like to eat stir-fried leafy vegetables, so let's make more at noon.
"Well, don't use this. Forehead...... Forehead...... Well, I have a sister at home, and if I stay here to eat, I won't have anyone to cook for Lilith. ”
After thinking about it for a long time, Yang Ping finally came up with a very perfect excuse. What the? Just stay here to eat? How can it be! It's going to be dead! I still want to live to travel back and marry the goddess, how can I die under such a strange reason.
"Then bring Lilith to dinner, it's okay to have more Lilith, you don't have to worry about me cooking anyway." Hearing the name Lilith, the golden light in Eliza's eyes became even stronger, if it was polite to leave Yang Ping to eat before, then now it is necessary to let Father Yang Ping eat at Paul Cathedral.
"Well, what's so embarrassing!" It's because you cook that I'm not at ease! I didn't expect that such a perfect excuse would be so easily resolved, could it be that I could only survive on bread and water for the next month?
"That's it, Father Yang Ping, I'll go grocery shopping first, and the work of the church will be handed over to you." Eliza didn't hear Yang Ping's words at all, since Father Yang Ping had already agreed, then he must not be given a chance to regret it. Lilith, come into my sister's arms! Ho~Ho~Ho~Ho!
Seeing the back of Eliza's departure, Yang Ping's heart was desperate, but when he thought that a brave man would soon come to Paul Cathedral to resurrect his companions, a faint light of hope appeared in this despair, let the gold coin soothe the wounds in my heart, Anhook!
"Wait, Father Yang Ping, I almost forgot the most important thing." Yang Ping's heart instantly hung again, but he didn't expect Eliza to kill a horse pistol!
"If there are brave people who come to resurrection, let them put the gold coins in this chest."
Following Eliza's fingers, Yang Ping successfully found a large box on the side of the prayer table, with a big red cross painted on the box, but why didn't he see this box all the time! But the most important thing is, why should the brave man put the gold coins in the chest, shouldn't the gold coins be put in the priest's pocket!
"Well, why did you put the gold in that box?"
"Those gold coins are the money that keeps the church running, and where do you put it in the box? As the main source of income for the church, the gold coins of the Resurrected Brave are used to keep the church running. Just like the nuns of Paul's Cathedral, although they come to the church voluntarily to help, the living expenses are still borne by the church. Also, the church has to take out a sum of money every year to subsidize the poor families in the town, these are all places to spend money, didn't Father Yang Ping study at the priest's college? Eliza looked at Yang Ping with a puzzled expression, these things even the preparatory priest who had just entered the school knew them, why did Father Yang Ping still have doubts?
"How, how is it possible." How can there be such a rule, which guy has decided to stand up and my Father Yang Ping will be the first to kill you!
"I mean, it doesn't seem very safe to put in this box, wouldn't it be bad if a thief came in?"
"It turns out that Father Yang Ping is worried about this," Eliza looked suddenly enlightened, I said how could Father Yang Ping not know these most basic things, it turned out that he was worried about this kind of problem, "Father Yang Ping, don't worry, don't look at this box so shabby, this is an ancient alchemy product that my grandfather found from the ruins, and no one in this world can open this box except me and my grandfather." ”
"What, what? That's, that's good. After listening to Eliza's words, Yang Ping instantly felt that he had lost the courage to live, and who could understand the priest's sadness.
"Okay, that's all over now, Father Yang Ping, then I'll go prepare today's lunch, remember to let Lilith come to eat together."
Having completed her mission, Eliza left the Paul's Cathedral happily, leaving Father Yang Ping alone standing there in tears.
