Chapter 30: Temple Missionaries and Priests
Rollin had never heard of this priesthood, and with this god, it was likely that he was just a god who was forced to choose to fulfill this priesthood.
The inexplicable priesthood does not use the development of believers to accumulate the power of faith. Of course, this is a question that only gods need to think about, and the current Luo Lin is not qualified to be like a god, so high, wandering in many planes, and laying out his own way.
Now, the way he gathered the power of faith was very simple and crude, and that was to promote this god in his own territory.
All their own people must believe in this god!
However, Luo Lin thought about it, and felt that such a mandatory belief seemed to be a bit overbearing.
He thought about it carefully, then summoned the butler over and launched a series of measures against the temple of the god of the corona.
The temple does not have to be built to be extravagant and magnificent, but the necessary momentum is still needed, the initial investment in the construction of the amount is 10,000 gold coins, if it is less, you can continue to apply, be sure to build the temple perfectly.
The location chosen for the temple must be good, this is the most important thing, and it cannot be selected in the position of the side door. Those who invest in shops and want to compete with the temple for the position of the land, let them all get out.
Although such means are overbearing, it is obvious which is more important, so the necessary means must still be used.
In the process of building the temple, it was immediately promoted to the people of the entire territory, this is an orthodox god, definitely not an evil god, but also a god that the lord believes in, I hope they will come together to believe in this god!
Of course, there may be many believers in the realm who believe in other gods, and the lord is magnanimous and will not force them to convert.
However, all believers who believe in this god can get a preferential tax on the territory, which is very large, and they can reduce the basic tax by 10 percent!
The basic tax is 10 percent less, and for a family, there is no doubt about the improvement.
For example, a family that has just been able to make ends meet, if it is less than 10% of the tax revenue, will eat meat twice a day, will have some spare money to buy a family, and can even save money to start some small businesses in the future!
And if they don't believe it, then without this 10 percent, their lives will still be the same.
Driven by interests, these lords will soon make a choice. Even if they themselves will still insist on their beliefs as they have always been and will not change, but what about their families? How long will this weak belief be able to persist under the constant urging and constant talk of their family members?
Followers of the gods are spread across thousands of planes, and as long as they are not fanatics, it is usually difficult for the gods to notice. So Rollin doesn't need to worry about that.
Believers in the gods also have hierarchies.
At the lowest level are the ordinary believers, above them are the devout believers, and above there are the fanatics.
A fanatical believer is a believer who can give a bit of a sacrifice to the gods, and even under any circumstances, will not waver in his belief in the gods.
This kind of believer is very precious, and the current Luo Lin is not qualified to obtain this kind of believer. All he needed was to accumulate the power of faith.
The housekeeper Lefei listened to Luo Lin's explanation, lowered his head, and did not dare to interject.
Luo Lin's expression was very strict, and his words were very decisive, showing determination, and the old butler who knew how to observe words and expressions understood that this was not a whim decision, but an order that could not be changed. Yourself, you just need to listen to obedience.
Rollin said a rough idea, thought for a moment, and then asked, "What do you think there is anything else you can add?"
Le Fei hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I want to ask two questions. ”
Luo Lin frowned and said, "You say!"
"First, there is the issue of the priest of the god of the corona, if there is no pastor, it is difficult to gather faith, and even if the people believe, there will still be some gossip. That's what I don't think is appropriate. ”
"Second, there is the issue of the dogma of the god of the corona, if there are no dogmatic texts to promote the god of the corona, it will still be difficult to carry out missionary activities, and I think this is also a problem that needs to be considered. ”
Steward Le Fei cautiously said the question he thought of, and after finishing speaking, he cautiously looked at Luo Lin's reaction.
Luo Lin hesitated for a moment, and then nodded emphatically: "Well said, you are right, this is indeed something I need to consider, and I did miscalculate, not bad." I will give you instructions on these two questions, and there is only one pastor, who can be drawn from among the devout believers and recommended to become a priest!"
Luo Lin thought for a while, and continued: "Second, the doctrine of mission, this is very easy to do, you go to someone, buy a few copies of the missionary books of the gods of light, magic and other gods, and then ask someone to copy and revise them, and use them as the sect classics of the god of the corona!"
"Ahh......h Is this okay?" Butler Lefei listened to Luo Lin's words, his eyes widened subconsciously, and he asked in disbelief.
Luo Lin smiled and said, "Why can't that?"
"Yes, yes! Butler Le Fei nodded hurriedly.
The candidate for the pastor, Rollin has already chosen, and that is Lili.
He soon went to his dormitory, told Ann Lily about it, and shared a trace of divine power with her, transforming her into a priest.
"You're a pastor now. You can cast healing spells and the like, but I hope you don't use them. Rollin thought for a moment and said.
"Why?" asked Lily curiously.
"There's no why, I told you not to use it, you don't use it. Luo Lin said directly and domineeringly, his divine power is limited, and he doesn't want to waste it like this: "Those sick believers, you can just arrange for a doctor to treat them." Of course, it is free of charge on a certain course. In the early stage of church publicity, there is still some cost. ”
"Okay, I see. An Lili didn't ask anymore and nodded.
"Well, besides, you are now a priest, but you are a vicarious bishop, do you understand? The importance of this position? This is the existence of the control of the temple, I hope you will not let me down. Rollin said.
"Acting Bishop?" asked Lily.
"Yes, there are very few people I trust, you are one, I hope you can do this position well. Luo Lin smiled and said: "In the future, believers can be selected to be promoted to priests, and I will be notified in advance, these priests are preferably young and beautiful women." Of course, pious men can also be recommended, but try to be fewer. ”
"Yes. An Lili blinked, she always felt that Rollin's order was a little meaningful.
