In the face of Andrew's remarks, Alfonso shook his head helplessly, snatching things from the church, which was similar to beating the landlord to divide the land.

The people below are afraid, and they are still expected to happily hand over their things.

In Alfonso's view, the response of the clergy to just a few complaints and try to reduce the damage was relatively mild.

- After all, the ungentle are dead.

"Okay, you don't have to say a word."

Andrew was immediately silenced.

"How many assets have been seized so far?" Alfonso asked.

"There are 46,000 properties in major cities, of which 20,000 have to be returned.

In addition, there are more than 2,300 estates of all sizes, 1,700 factories, 1.1 million acres of scattered farmland, and 76 million pounds worth of cash and bonds. ”

Speaking of this, Andrew paused: "At present, only half of the total has been carried out, and the remaining half will take one month, and it will be about half a year to a year before it is completely completed." ”

Alfonso nodded slightly, he had been paying attention to the progress of the seizure, which was not much different from what he thought.

The rest were clergy from the small towns, far less affluent than their counterparts in the big cities.

It would be nice to increase the current number by 1/3 for the next collection.

"£76 million...... Alfonsomer thought that if some more real estate were sold, the amount of money available to the government would reach 120 million!

What is this concept? This is equivalent to the total revenue of Spain in the past 4 years!

What is this purchasing power? You can directly storm 300 ships to kill the European Combined Fleet seven in and seven out!

Of course, having said that, shipbuilding is not all about money.

Even if shipyards all over the world start to serve the Spanish order, 300 ironclads will have to be built in 20 years.

"This is the accumulation of hundreds of years of the Spanish Catholic Church...... Alfonso sighed.

However, he was not carried away by this windfall, and many of the assets seized could not be realized immediately.

One can imagine the devastating consequences of the sudden arrival of huge sums of luxury goods and real estate on the market.

"Do you have any idea what to do with this money?" Alfonso spoke.

Andrew bowed his head slightly: "Don't dare, please make it clear to Your Majesty." ”

Alfonso asked casually, and saw that Andrew was unwilling to answer and was not reluctant.

"I'm going to leave some of these properties to the religious office, and you will give them to the clergy who don't have enough assets." Alfonso said lightly.

Andrew looked up in shock, he had the impression that the king of China had always harbored a trace of ill will towards the church, and it was inconceivable to take out the money in his pocket and return it to the priest.

Alfonso laughed: "Don't look at me like that, I just don't like those fly-friendly clergy, and I won't be stingy with those few dollars for the truly pious and good." ”

"Your Majesty is righteous."

After a sentence of flattery, Andrew said: "Then how much does each person send?" ”

"Until it's full."

Andrew hesitated: "Then it may take a bit much, some priests hand over the donations to the top as soon as they get them, and their own money is used for good deeds."

There are not many of them, and the average age is a little older......"

"It's okay, you can smash all the real estate into it, it's enough to say anything." Alfonso said he didn't care about the huge expense.

He is not a speculator, and he does not lack that bit of rent, and it is really useless to hold tens of thousands of houses.

Throwing it on the market together and selling it will destroy the housing market.

The only effect is that it is easier to rebuild old towns in Spain that do not have a complete sewer system.

But this is not in Alfonso's plans, at least not as high as a priority.

As long as Madrid is clean, the rest of the country is dirty.

On the contrary, there are many benefits to sending it, on the one hand, it is to earn enough prestige and get rid of the title of the king of wealth that has been faintly placed on him recently.

On the other hand, it is to enhance the vitality of the market.

The government has dealt a heavy blow to the clergy class, which has undoubtedly left a large deficit in the middle and high-end consumption power of the whole of Spain, and it is better to make up for this missing part as soon as possible.

Regardless of whether the clergy rented the property, lived in it or sold it, the money flowed.

"Now it's up to those guys to organize the government." Andrew said happily.

Alfonso bowed slightly: "This is a good opportunity to ease relations, you have to seize it."

You're also a member of the church, and it's not okay to be on a par with others. ”

Andrew replied, "I understand. ”

"Also, except for the church and these properties, I will take the rest of the assets and will not leave them to the Ministry of Religious Affairs.

In the future, you will also need to raise your own salaries, and even if you rely on donations from all walks of life, I don't think it will be difficult to break even.

If you really don't have enough to make up, you can make a report and apply to the Ministry of Finance. Alfonso said.

"Huh?" Andrew's face suddenly collapsed, and he thought he would leave some for them.

These properties are to be issued, and the newly established department of the Ministry of Religious Affairs can be described as truly poor.

Indeed, as the king said, it is possible to survive on donations alone, but what department would dislike too much money!

It is better to keep them from the Ministry of Finance than to leave some of the estates in the hands of the Ministry of Affairs, and it seems that the king is determined to separate the church and the merchants.

After sending Andrew away, Alfonso was not free for the next few days.

Obviously, he is not the only one who is watching the actions of the ministry, and the top officials of the departments basically know that the government has money in its hands and has a lot of money.

One by one, they began to come to Alfonso and Enrique to find out what the money was for.

All plans have come out, such as building railways, tyrannical navies, and renovating old cities......

One of the most outrageous is the construction of an undersea cable from Seville to Equatorial Guinea.

This, if you can repair it, you can repair it, but you can only make money, and it will take half a century to recover the cost.

There were so many of them that Alfonso took the trouble to hold a small meeting to explain the purpose of the wealth.

"First of all, the manors and fields, the Spanish agricultural group will buy a part, the royal family will buy a part, if you want to buy it, you can also put it forward." Alfonso said.

But when I looked around, there was not a single squeak from the congregation.

Everyone is a person who stands at the top of Spain, there is no shortage of vision, news, and funds, and opening a factory is not better than farming.

Even if it is an olive grove or a vineyard, the output is fixed, and there is no factory that comes quickly.

Alfonso was not surprised to see this, and continued:

"The debt is not in a hurry, and it is better to repay it according to the plan.

There was a lot of action next, and I don't think the money was enough. ”
