21. A well-meaning gentleman, a devout believer of the Lord, a generous good man

Although Abel was unable to get an official position within the Order because of his discord with the deputy commander, he was unable to transfer manpower, but as the apprentice of the chief knight and the son of a wealthy merchant, he still received the support of many people.

Abel's henchman beside him said:

No information about Wright's identity could be found, but since he came to Firth, he has spent a lot of money on meaningless things and deposited large sums of money in various banks. ”

He paused.

"We don't have a precise figure, but a conservative estimate is between £5 billion and £10 billion. ”

It looks like there is probably some kind of support behind this guy, or the spokesperson of some secret organization that wants to surface.

It seems that Abel has offended him severely, and it is clear that if he waits for his teacher, he will have no chance to make amends.

"What do you think, Maggie. ”

His most trusted knight proposed:

"Maybe we can provoke the apprentices of other knights to clash with him, and then join forces with them to deal with this Wright, and when we take him, even if we fail, the people who will be punished are all the apprentices, and the risk to Lord Abel will be much smaller. ”

Abel smiled, his supporter's vision was still too small:

"Go and let it out, this Mr. Wright has shown blatant disrespect for the pure white knight, but don't mention the wealth he has, do things naturally, and make them feel that they have inquired. ”

"But then someone will turn a blind eye, and if only half of them deal with him, Lord Abel will still be very conspicuous. ”

Abel laughed:

"Who said that I was going to deal with him, you still see it too narrowly, what's the point of a momentary dispute, I want to take the initiative to find him to make amends, and I have to make amends for my ignorant junior brother. ”

Abel stretched out her right hand, as if grasping something:

"I'm going to take him to my teachers, and when the time comes, they'll be the ones who offend the rich men on their own initiative, and I'll be the good brother who tries to make up for their mistakes. ”

Abel grinned with teeth:

"Everyone was happy. ”

"If you are Lord Abel, you will surely inherit the skills of Lord George. Maggie lowered his head, secretly admiring his eyes.

Outside the Church of the Primordial Flame.

The Bishop of Firth City, dressed in a red and white robe, is sending a beautiful woman with long curly blond hair away.

"Thank you Ms. Mary Anne for your support. ”

Mary Anne covered her face and chuckled:

"Whereever, Your Excellency, you have won the prize, this is what we believers should do. ”

The bishop's eyes narrowly rounded around Marianne and looked behind her to the right.

The lady was a little surprised, and leaned slightly sideways to look behind her.

A young brunette man in a formal suit was walking towards the two.

The bishop walked past Mary Anne and said softly to the visitor:

"The church is closed today and cannot receive guests for the time being. ”

Hewen nodded, looking apologetic:

"I don't know, but I'm in a bit of a hurry, so I'll just come over. ”

Bishop Alec smiled kindly:

"Oh, I'm Bishop Alec here, if you have something urgent, you can just talk to me. ”

Hewen nodded:

"I have received a lot of help from the Primordial Fire when I was running a business in my hometown, so I have always wanted to give back to the church, and at the same time, I hope that Lady Gaphnan will continue to protect my business. ”

Alec had seen a lot of this kind of businessman who traded donations in exchange for the protection and acquiescence of the church, and if it was normal, he would have been happy to talk to him, but now he just wanted to deal with this guy quickly.

Even so, but he couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of believers to donate, Alec made a grateful look and asked:

"How much would you like to donate?"

Herwin glanced at Mary Anne beside her.

Bishop says:

"Lady Mary Anne, like you, is a devout believer. ”

Hewen immediately showed an excited look:

"In fact, as soon as I arrived in the city, I noticed something very infuriating. ”

"What's the matter?" said the bishop, puzzled.

"Our church isn't the tallest building in the city, which has never happened in other cities, and it's a bit dilapidated. ”

Alec's smile stiffened, didn't that mean they weren't good enough?, how could this outrageous nouveau riche know how much effort he had put into fitting in with the city?

"What do you mean?" the bishop's tone was not as polite as it had been.

"I think the church needs to be renovated, I plan to invest 500 million pounds in the early stage, so that the whole church can be renovated and expanded, and there are rubies and gold, I see that many places are only gilded on the surface......"

Alec's smile froze completely, but this time it was because of excitement.

"How much do you say?"

"500 million gold pounds. ”

Alek took two steps forward and grabbed Herwen's hand:

"I have not yet consulted the name of this kind gentleman, the devout believer of the Lord, the generous good man?"

"Wright. ”

Alec held Wright's hand and didn't let go:

"Mr. Wright, I don't think this kind of thing is appropriate to discuss here, so come with me to my personal confessional now. ”

At the same time, he looked at Mary Anne:

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but we'll talk about that next time. ”

Although Mary Anne wanted to continue listening, she also knew that it was impossible, so she could only nod, smile reservedly at Wright, and turn away.

Aleca walked into the church with Hervin and found a seat for him to sit down.

"You just said that 500 million is an upfront investment?" asked the bishop with a smile.

"That's right, I'm going to expand this place on a scale second only to the Holy Church, after all, there are no saints and saints here, or do we have one?"

Alec almost said yes.

"Haha, of course not, how can we have saints here, but then again, do you have any troubles? As the lowliest servant of the Lord, I will definitely guarantee the interests of our believers. ”

Alec was waiting for Hewen to say what he wanted, after all, he didn't believe that a big businessman who could come up with 500 million really donated this money because of his faith.

But Alec will never let this money run away from his own hands, because there is no problem of foundation here, unlike other bishops, he can earn nearly 100 million pounds of funds every year, and the whole church has fallen into a financial crisis, and he cannot do many things freely.

Even this has affected the Pope's view of him.

He had made up his mind that if he was not allowed to overthrow Bergeland's reign or assassinate the White Knight himself, he would gladly agree to any unreasonable demands this Mr. Wright.
