Old Sword Master

“I was so reasonable and gave him money that he couldn’t make for a lifetime, but he still refused!”

“I must call him good-looking this time!”

When the Medici red-clothed Archbishop and Wood were separated, they were obviously in a bad mood. This city man unreservedly poured out his discrimination against the country.

Of course, the Medici red-clothed Archbishop has such a character. The villages attached to Florence and Milan are quite prosperous, and he never goes to the countryside to preach.

Wurzburg’s red-clothed Archbishop also came out. He was just looking at it. He was really the pope and so on. He was a German red-clothed Archbishop. He had few mines at home. Intellectually, he knew that he had no chance. Be on it.

Of course, deep in one’s heart, do you have any ideas? Würzburg could not look directly at himself.

“Loyola, Wurzburg, do you think my offer is appropriate?” Medici red-clothed Archbishop said fiercely.

“It cannot be said to be malicious or insincere.” Luo Yaola said calmly and naturally.

If Würzburg is usually speaking nonsense, but in front of Loyola, he can only say: “I don’t understand, but I think it’s not bad in my heart. He deducts hundreds of thousands to 90000, and then you add 3000, 3 After the 5th round, the transaction of **10000 is reasonable. After all, you still have to bring the things back to Rome by yourself. Maybe someone will be wronged on the way.”

Würzburg red-clothed Archbishop feels that the price cannot be negotiated is understandable, but it is not right for Wood to bargain.

“You poor German ghosts actually understand the truth in your heart!” Medici red-clothed Archbishop actually doesn’t want to swear bad people, but he can only tell his true opinions, “You all look at the Ottomans and France. The people immediately colluded. Then they will launch military operations. The first target is the Austrian and Spanish fleets, and the second is Crete in the Eastern Mediterranean. The fleet is not easy to fight, where are you going to Crete?!”

Wurzburg looked at Loyola. The latter was expressionless. In fact, is it a secret that France and Osman colluded? The most troublesome thing after Francis Osman’s teaming must be Austria, which is sandwiched between them. Dislaus built a large fortress in Belgrade, where the Sava River flows into the Danube. This fortress is not a fortress, but a defensive system that costs more than 200,000 talers and uses part of the service. Now Sava The banks of the river 2 are already part of Belgrade.

Obviously such a tough Ottoman would not be willing to chew, and France could not help much. The more suitable target was the Mediterranean. The French and Ottoman fleets were more likely to act in concert. The Ottomans who regained Egypt could attack several targets. , Crete is the most prominent and obvious target.

So Wood’s recent fight for allies in Venice is very timely and has a certain foundation.

Wurzburg knows that Ladislaus is very worried about the blockade of the Austrian fleet in the Adriatic, although Ladislaus and the other Austrians are satisfied that the Austrian Duchy gets most of the benefits of the Adriatic. Now, what do you think about other parts of the Mediterranean, but once locked in the Adriatic Sea, the Austrian Navy and the Spanish Mediterranean Fleet will not be able to cooperate. Of course, the Spaniards can retreat step by step. They have a lot of use in the Central Mediterranean. And the Austrians will be locked in the port, and all maritime interests will disappear.

“His Royal Highness Wurzburg, since I met, you have to help me.” Medici red-clothed Archbishop said this truth confirms Wurzburg’s worries for a long time.

He still has some personal interests on this issue. He is the most profitable person among the Austrian aristocracy in Egypt. Although the investment of the Tenth Crusade has been scraped back by his daughter, he basically did not lose money. But in Egypt, he still has some investments, contacts and comrades in arms.

“I can’t help you.” Würzburg red-clothed Archbishop waved his hands again and again.

He is an Austrian politician wearing a red-clothed Archbishop hat. He is not the same thing as the red-clothed Archbishop in the Roman church. It doesn’t hurt to say a few truthful words with the Medici red-clothed Archbishop, but It’s really unnecessary.

“Wood provoked Rome’s Dark Sun Church and maliciously killed several red-clothed Archbishop rampant heretics, I decided to take decisive measures immediately!” Medici red-clothed Archbishop then said angrily.

Wurzburg and Loyola looked at each other, and they didn’t plan to end up with Wood decisively.

“I want to let everyone know the strength of the Medici family on auction!” The decisive methods of Medici red-clothed Archbishop turned out to be not so decisive, so he will not fall into the end of Colonna and Orsini. “You have to lend me money.”

“I have a tight hand, no…” Würzburg red-clothed Archbishop stared at Loyola helplessly, and finally could only say, “I have 8,000 talers in my hand, but I can’t lend it to you for nothing. I just saw a few Spaniards, they said Kafara’s red-clothed Archbishop had already arrived in Venice a few days ago.”

“Hmph, as expected!” The Medici red-clothed Archbishop was not particularly excited. Who wouldn’t want to be the pope. “Kaffara, these damn Spaniards dream, even if he gets treasure, we Italians will unite of.”

“It’s just that you Italians treat the church as their own private property, and now the reputation of the church is so bad.” Würzburg red-clothed Archbishop looked at Medici and became angry.

“I really don’t want to take care of you from the German poor ghost. I have borrowed 30000 talers from Gonzaga red-clothed Archbishop, and I will pay you back at the end of the auction.” Medici red-clothed Archbishop is mainly to close the market position. Gonzaga red-clothed Archbishop reached an agreement with him. Everyone puts the money together, and then they can buy Wood’s goods at a low price. “Didn’t the Regent always want a new missionary group? I can arrange it for you. In the next ten or two months, I promise to put ten or five missionary groups led by at least one core into the area he requested.”

This is a good thing for both Gonzaga and Medici. The former can ensure that Wood will not get much money to purchase the components of the original sword, and the latter can buy Wood’s goods at a relatively low price.

“We’ll deal with 20! And make sure that there is at least one ordinary pastor in the group.” Würzburg wants to make sure that the other party does not play word games. Ladislaus recently sent a Latin literacy class to the Czech region. As a result, there are Responsible for catching the anti-thief, there are teachers who protect teachers and clean up the local style, but there is not even a person who can speak Latin. They are all German teachers. “And if an agreement is reached, then half of it must be issued immediately, without delay.”

With Ladislaus, the Würzburg red-clothed Archbishop is super vigilant.

Medici red-clothed Archbishop took a look at Loyola. The greatest achievement of the First Apostolic Society controlled by Loyola is to train a large number of high-quality missionaries. The priest level may not be high, but these low-level priests are all Very pious, courageous and willing to go where God needs them most.

Loyola said, “You have to give me your villa in Rome.”

The villa of the Medici family is located in the center of Rome in a very good location.

“Okay!” Medici couldn’t control that many in order to truly elect the pope, and then he turned to the Würzburg red-clothed Archbishop.

“How many groups can you send now?” Wurzburg continued to ask.

“Give you five. If there are any casualties of the guards, they must be compensated by the same level officer of Austria. If there are no land, they will be paid directly to Yin Tale. If there are casualties of the priest, the murderer must be severely punished.” Loyola’s conditions are not harsh.

“Good.” Würzburg nodded.

“Okay, okay, okay, then we will be our own people. From now on I will be the real pope, and you are all heroes!” Medici red-clothed Archbishop was very happy.

Chapter 500 34 The last day before the auction

It was only a day before the final auction of the Granville Fair, Wood and Nared went shopping together.

The Granville Fair is certainly not a small disturbance for urban residents, but the taxes brought by such commercial activities also allow Venice to have enough funds for public construction.

The roads in Venice are repaired. After all, the tides here will damage the roads, but the canals are well maintained.

But what impressed Wood most was the public transportation in Venice.

There are stations on each island, and small boats that can accommodate 20 to 25 people shuttle between the islands in a reasonable time.

Wood didn’t notice this problem at all when he came to Venice last time. In retrospect, it might be because he was all active in the Jaeger community, and there was not at all attention from the authorities.

Wood sits on this kind of small boat full of dockers who are going to work. As long as 2 small pulls can sit for 2 miles, cheap transportation and effective organization allow them to have more time to rest, as long as it is before the start of work. It takes a few minutes to reach it.
