Seeing the atmosphere getting more and more awkward, the main reason is that Father Martin can't keep up with Tom's jumping rhythm of thinking,

At this time, the female secretary came out and said a few words to adjust the atmosphere:

"Mr. Smith, I heard Mrs. Smith say that she would like to adopt some orphans, and on the way Father Martin told me that his lifelong dream is to help more orphans like him come out of the shadows and live well."

"I want money to build an orphanage! Earlier, you should go and ask John to prepare tens of thousands of dollars now, and we are going to build a hero orphanage. ”

"Yes, Mr. Smith."

"Remember to inform the Rocky Governor that the establishment of a state orphanage could "rescue" many children who had been captured by the farmer as serfs. ”

"I remember."

The female secretary slowly exited the office, knowing that Tom was going to talk to Father Martin about the details of the "Hero Orphanage".

The female secretary has long wanted to build an orphanage for Tom to "choose a concubine".

For female secretaries, little female orphans who grow up from childhood to adulthood, and can also monitor, educate, and cultivate on the side,

For female secretaries, these little orphans are definitely easier to control than little girls with parents.

The female secretary doesn't think she can keep Tom on a leash for the rest of her life, she chooses to cultivate her own lineage to satisfy Tom's selfish desires, and then strengthen her position.

The female secretary and Tom can also be said to be a family that does not enter the door.

Fr. Martin didn't care about that, he only cared about whether he could build more churches and orphanages to support tens of thousands of orphans.

After the female secretary left, Father Martin excitedly shook Tom's hands and thanked Tom with tears in his eyes:

"Thank you so much, Mr. Smith, hundreds of thousands of dollars will surely make it possible for orphans all over Houston and all of Texas to have a wonderful childhood."

"It's too much, and when it comes to a good childhood, it's true that I also think that children should have a "good" childhood. ”

"I start by thanking you on behalf of all the Texas orphans."

"No need, no need, the recent expansion of the hero company, there is too much shortage of manpower, the orphans have been robbed by the farmers, use the state free orphanage to attract children, good idea, add a few orphanages next to the factory as a dormitory."

"Mr. Smith, you're not adopting orphans, you're recruiting employees, are you?"

Father Martin, who was full of joy, was a little shocked when he heard the young man in his twenties say indifferently that the orphanage was actually part of the "recruitment plan".

Father Martin couldn't believe that the pious Penny's child could say such unconscionable words.

Instead, Tom held out a finger and shook it a few times, and retorted:

“NO，NO，NO。 Father, don't talk nonsense, our HERO company does not recruit such small employees, this is to help these children adapt to life in advance and adapt to a better tomorrow, so they are called "interns" or "holiday workers". ”

"Holiday workers? What does that mean? ”

"It's just going to school on weekdays and coming to work during the holidays."

"Can I still go to school? That's okay, it's also a good idea to let them work and help during breaks. ”

Father Martin suddenly felt that the teenager in front of him was really visionary, and it was indeed a good idea to let the children work during the holidays and study on weekdays.

It is a good way to not only increase knowledge, but also accumulate social experience and work experience, which is a good way to get the best of both worlds.

Tom went on to say to Father Martin:

"In this way, all the orphanages will be managed by you in the future, and you can arrange whatever courses you teach."

"Really?" Father Martin was a little happy, he had only planned to let Tom build a few orphanages at first, but he didn't expect to be involved.

"Of course it's true, every year the State Hero Orphanage, except for Christmas, comes to the Hero Factory every day for fifteen hours of "internship" during the holiday, there is no pay, as long as you don't pay your salary, you don't count as a worker. ”

Hearing Tom's kind words about the "vacation plan", Father Martin instantly couldn't bear it, this is Tom is recruiting workers in the name of the orphanage, and bullying these orphans without parents, and not even giving them wages!

"Boom!"

"Let me refuse!"

Enraged, Father Martin slammed his hands on Tom's desk and sternly rejected Tom.

Tom paid no heed to Father Martin's gaffe, and continued to say lightly:

"It doesn't matter if you refuse, anyway, there are priests in Texas, just find a few priests, and I'm sure most priests prefer to take care of orphans "carefully" than you. ”

"This ......"

The angry Father Martin did not lose his mind either, and he knew what Tom meant by "meticulous".

"I ......"

Father Martin suddenly felt like a drowning man, exerting all his strength, but still to no avail,

The same feeling I had when I came back from the Vatican came back to Father Martin.

Father Martin saw the papal wealth at the Vatican.

The splendid churches, the bishops' "overalls" with gold and silver threads, and the greenery of gold branches and jade leaves......

These scenes, without exception, are not impacting Father Martin's three views.

Father Martin even eavesdropped on the conversation between the two priests curiously.

They are competing to see who has "enlightened" more children, who has more assets, and who has more illegitimate children......

The Pope and Bishops of the Vatican are unimaginably rich, and Father Martin also knows that most of the priests in Texas who are shameless and have no faith at all make a lot of money.

Fr. Martin looked at Tom in front of him and recalled what a priest had said to him when he asked to see the bishop at the Vatican:

"See the bishop? You won't necessarily see how many indulgences you want to buy. ”

Father Martin gave up his request to see the bishop, left the Vatican, and returned to Houston.

Father Martin even thought about it.

It was the Lord, the Lord who pulled Father Martin back from the abyss, and Father Martin wanted to continue to carry forward the Lord's will, so that more people could know the real "Lord", not the "Lord" of the Church.

But today, Father Martin was once again hit hard by Tom.

Father Martin looked at Tom and figured out a truth: yes, if the rich donate a few hundred thousand dollars, it is "kindness", and if they donate hundreds of thousands of dollars, can it still be pure "goodwill"?

Father Martin looked at the demon Tom in front of him with a dead face, and Tom continued to look at Father Martin with great interest.

Tom saw in the voice of an ordinary "priest" the scene he saw in President Benito at the Mexico Spoils Conference - a man with bright eyes, but lost his "highlight" because of a short sentence.

Tom knew that the sight symbolized the shattering of one's inner faith.
