"Oh, I wonder how much His Majesty can come up with to sponsor the Holy War?" Christopher smiled. This is a credit that fell from the sky, and if he had pulled patronage from King Cape, he would definitely have a better chance of winning the election of the next pope.

These feats are all bargaining chips in the election campaign. Although there are too many factors that cannot be controlled in the secret election of the College of Cardinals, it never hurts to have a more glamorous resume.

Then again, Henry's request for "muskets and sailboats" was a little difficult for him, but to put it bluntly, it wasn't a big deal. If these supplies are captured, countries will not immediately arm their front-line troops - there is indeed room for maneuver, and the front-line soldiers have a tradition of selling their booty at low prices.

"I think I can give fifty thousand livres for jihad, cash. To tell you the truth, I have made a large profit because of the patronage of the Syris's fleet, and it is my duty to use these profits to support the holy war in the East. The king paused, and then said, "I think I can divide a thousand of the muskets purchased from the fleet of Seris." But I hope ......"

At the same time, the king made concessions on the issue of the musket of Seris.

When Christopher heard this, he immediately glanced up at Henry. Before he came, he never imagined that this king, who was so down-and-out that only half of the country was left, would be able to come up with such a huge amount of money! I'm afraid that even the Governor's Palace of the Adriatic Republic couldn't make up this number for a while!

"I think if the war wasn't so bad. I can give you the total value in return. As he spoke, Christopher gestured, "But the new and old procedures and types of goods are not guaranteed." "As this Plenipotentiary Envoy. He is still free to decide some things.

"That couldn't be better. ”

In the trade with the Cyris's fleet, it was the local nobles and merchants in the south who profited, because they were basically not affected by much war, and they were able to take the money to participate in Sinampei's trade plan. The nobles who followed the king from the north to the south did not reap much benefit, and the lack of capital was a fatal wound. Although the king has tried his best to sweep away this dissatisfaction, there will still be some resentment in his heart.

But the other way around. The grievances of these nobles are also indirectly proof of the other group of people, namely the royal family and the natives of the south. How much profit is actually made.

Obviously, although the king was far away on the western coast at that time, he had tasted the sweetness after all. There is nothing abnormal about him hoping to turn the hot money in his hand into an investment that can be expected to return.

But that's not what Sinan Pei sees.

When the king specifically said the two things, muskets and sailboats. Sinan Pei understood. The king probably realized how important these things were in this day and age.

After acceding to the various requests of the Holy See, he was still trying to find a way to ensure that he had reliable strength in his hands. As a battle-hardened king, he could not ignore the threat from the north at all times. It can be seen that he will only feel at ease when the power in his hand can confront any potential enemy head-on.

Maybe the kings have been like this for a long time, Sinan Pei can understand it.

But as an ordinary person, he still failed to see the essence behind these things - the increase in productivity. These two things are just representatives of the changes of the times.

Sinan Pei thought with some annoyance. Is it because the king can only see what is on the surface that he is so lukewarm to himself?

Since ancient times. Figuring out the meaning of the truth is hard work, whether ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, it is the same. Sinampei once felt that he had caused the king's attitude to change because he was too close to Theresa, but what had just happened made Sinampei have other ideas.

If he really mattered to him, then he wouldn't care what happened between him and Theresa? Sinan Pei shook his head with a wry smile.

A qiē is back to square one. Sinampei wanted to hope that the Pope would baptize him personally, didn't he just hope that he could add weight in the eyes of the king?

This Pope's summons may be an opportunity. Sinan Pei calculated in his heart.

Originally, he felt a little inexplicable about the Pope's summons, and at the same time, he was not willing to run away from Auvergne to Roman City, which looked like a puddle of troubled water, so he faced Christopher's invitation and chose to shirk the past with the reason that "Trisa's opinion needs to be considered".

But now he had to rethink the benefits of the summons. Perhaps, this summons may be able to become your own advancement!

Staying in Capet at the moment makes Sinampe feel no chance at all. It was clear that the king was no longer ready to canonize any nobles, and since he came to Cape, Sinampe had not seen the king willingly grant titles and fiefs to any commoner - officials were the ones he was happy to do, but it was difficult to get titles from him. Sinan Pei felt that these things he had done since he came to Capet were too high, and an insignificant title such as a viscount and baron had to be given to himself, right?

But the fact is that although he has been in charge of almost everything under Theresa's rule so far, he is still a white man...... Although he had no grudge against the king, Sinampei also felt a little unhappy.

When the people who came and went around him all wore knighthoods, Sinan Pei, who was a cloth cloth, felt a lot of pressure......

But Sinan Pei thought about it without considering whether it was his identity as "Count Seris" that affected the king's thinking. The arrival of the Cyris fleet has completely "confirmed" the authenticity of the identity of Count Sinampe, so that it is too difficult for the king to consider his reward, and it is obviously too much to give a fief directly to an earl, and the king does not intend to add obstacles to his rule over Capet, and the fief of a viscount or baron is not enough compared to the status of Sinampe's "count...... And his pagan identity is also an invisible obstacle.

At the end of the day, it's self-inflicted.

The meeting ended with "everyone happy".

After the meeting was dismissed, Christopher tried to talk to Sinampei, but the king got ahead of the bishop.

"Division, come over here. ”

Sinampe could only confess to Christopher, and then followed the king over.

It always feels a little bit too second...... Si Nanpei has always felt this way for a while, but it has never been as strong as it is today. (To be continued......)
