The Romans are the second only to the two countries of the five countries that jointly issued a statement to the Golden State, not to mention the small country of the people, but they also belong to the ranks of the second-rate powers, and their status in the international community is much higher than that of the United States, not to mention the small Oriental indigenous island country like the East, the latter has not fully studied the West at this time and has been accepted by Brittania as a younger brother, so there is no status at all.

Therefore, the people of Boufu and the two countries also have to give some face to the Roman kingdom.

What's more, the identity of this person is different, he is a bishop of the Holy See who was born in the Roman Kingdom, and although Franz, as the filial son of God, does not take the Holy See seriously in his heart, he must maintain a certain humble posture on his face.

"Your Excellency, my lord also needs this treasure to decorate his earthly pasture, I wonder if Your Excellency has any idea of donating this pearl to the Holy See on behalf of the Great Brittany Empire?"

Whitman was a little stunned when he heard this, then smiled and said politely to this man:

"Bishop Sutton, you also know that we in Brittania have been self-established Catholics since we were still in the United Kingdom, and His Majesty the Great King is the Patriarch of the Mandate of Heaven, so it is not appropriate for us to donate money to the Holy See, right?"

Then he said: "But if the Roman Kingdom or the Holy See is willing to pay for it, or exchange it for other treasures, I think Her Majesty the Empress is still willing to give His Majesty Victor or His Majesty the Pope a face!" ”

The Bishop of Sutton was choked by the other party's words when he heard this, if he could come up with the money, then he didn't have to say so much, the Holy See did have money, but now it is no different from the Middle Ages, and even a hundred years ago, when the tithes paid by the dioceses of various countries alone were enough for the Holy See to eat and drink, not to mention the huge industries of the Holy See almost all over the world, even the poorest bishops could live a luxurious life.

But with the rise of the Reformation and the peasant movement, almost all Protestant countries, with the exception of some Catholic states, have abolished tithes, and even if they have not abolished them, the Holy See will not be able to collect them.

Brittany, the number one power at the time, also did not abolish tithes, but it was given to the king and the church, not to the Holy See.

Therefore, although the Holy See is still very rich, it supports the revival of the Holy See and various expenses, resulting in a huge annual expenditure of the Holy See, especially breaking the blockade of Rome and expanding the large land area of the Papal Palace, which has always been the wish of successive popes and high-level papal sees.

However, all countries were opposed to this, especially the Kingdom of Rome, which bore the brunt of the attack, and Franz, the filial son of God next door, who were the most opposed.

Even though his own son Spania was very supportive of the Pope's expansion, the first empire on which the sun never set had been lonely for a long time, and the domestic situation was chaotic, almost reduced to the tail of a second-rate power, and it was powerless to intervene in foreign affairs.

The Kingdom of Rome was not wealthy, and it was almost impossible to pay for a pearl that would impress the Bretannes. Even if this is a rare pearl with extraordinary powers, it will not do.

After all, the Roman Kingdom had just unified the whole country, and it had not been many years since it became independent from the Holy Empire, and although it occupied one of the most elite regions in Europe, it was still a small country and weak and short of money because of the war.

In addition, Rome is located between the two great powers of Franz and the Holy Empire, it can be said that there are jackals on the left and tigers on the right, if it were not for the fact that he threw himself into Brittania as a younger brother, and various factors, it would not have been possible to unify the kingdom and achieve independence.

Even if the bishop of Rome was born in the Holy See, the fact that Brittanya itself was a Protestant country and that it had appointed its own king as supreme head did not obey the orders of the Holy See at all.

Therefore, the Sutton bishop of Rome obviously couldn't come up with any conditions, so he could only sigh and watch Whitman and Duwab negotiate terms and finally reach an agreement.

To say that this Major Dubois is not actually a Franz official in the Magic Capital Concession, but a garrison officer of Franz in the Annam colony.

This time I came to the big country of the Far East by chance, and I was originally just going through the motions like normal colonial officials and getting some oil and water by the way, but I happened to catch up with the appearance of Yuan Zhuzhu this time, so as die-hard supporters of Emperor Louis of Bonama III, the two of them will have thoughts about treasures.

The two who saw and felt the power of Yuan Zhu with their own eyes had more thoughts about this jewel, so even if they agreed to Minister Whitman's condition that they would betray some of the interests of the Annam colony, the two only hesitated and chose to agree.

After reaching a cooperation, Minister Whitman discussed with Franz and the two officers a specific plan for how to replace the orb.

Franz's side is now in charge of Major Dubois, because Minister Franz has gone to Jinmen this time to deal with the previous conflict between Franz's missionaries and local famous religions.

The rank of counselor who remained was not enough, and dealing with Whitman would be completely suppressed, and the military attache of the embassy was only a captain, so Major Dubois, as the highest-ranking official in the imperial concession, was temporarily entrusted by His Excellency the minister to temporarily assume the duties of the minister, responsible for presiding over Franz's situation in the Magic Capital Concession.

has the right not to expire and invalidate, although his temporary acting minister is only nominal, and the specific affairs are still in charge of those professional diplomats of the Modu Embassy, but this time the exchange is the interests of the colonial government of Annan, so Dubois, the second-in-command of the army of the Annan colony, can also have the right to make decisions without having to discuss with the embassy.

Of course, if the minister is still there, he still has to communicate with the person in charge of the empire in the Jin country, but isn't the minister no more!

When the deal is completed, he will also return to the colony of Annam, and then go back to China to celebrate the birthday of His Majesty the Emperor, and the minister will not be dissatisfied.

Dubois had a wonderful idea, and Whitman was happy to have made a deal that was beneficial to the Empire, and he preferred to deal with a "simple" soldier like Dubois rather than to negotiate a deal with Minister Franz's "old friend" and "old fox", which would inevitably be more nerve-wracking and not necessarily reap the current benefits.

So Whitman immediately ordered someone to prepare a substitute, and then exchanged the treasure as soon as possible, so as not to make any mistakes in the long night.

Although neither side, even the Bishop of Sardinia, thought that anything could be wrong with the treasure under their strong fortress and the many men and soldiers, they remained vigilant as politicians.

As everyone knows, everything they discussed was basically learned by Gao Jingfei through Fenrir's surveillance.

When the high-level leaders of these four foreigners dispersed, Gao Jingfei thought in his heart for a while, and decided to discuss with his eldest brother Zhang Lin and them before taking action.

"If there is no local master to make a move before the orb is replaced, I will reveal the foreigner's plan, compared to that Holy Hand Scholar Master Ning, he will be happy to help me deliver the news, right?"

After watching the live broadcast, he had a plan in mind, so he returned to the Altar of the Heavens again and opened the remaining five green drifting bottles.

"It's a lottery, it's a lottery!"

Gao Jingfei gave his hands on the six bottles with a little excitement.

Although red bottles are now a common color for him, sometimes even white bottles can have some surprises.

Sure enough, the first green bottle gave him a small surprise.

The Dancing Technique, which comes from the Dragon Ball world, uses the ability of Qi to make people fly in the air like a bird.

"Haha! I was finally able to fly on my own, without exposing Fenrir and without being caught by Night Bat Lux! ”

Flying has always been one of the ultimate dreams of human beings, and in Gao Jingfei's opinion, it should be second only to the ultimate dream of immortality.

The same is true for him. Although Gao Jingfei knew that with the promotion of his cultivation realm step by step, he would gain the ability to fly sooner or later, but at least it would be possible to master it after Dao Ji or even when he cultivated to the Yin God, but he didn't expect that he would be able to take off before he entered the innate now!
