Chapter 82: cardinal
Divine Favor: Torrent of Life?
Leo was shocked for a while. Isn't this chain against the sky? Such a precious thing, wouldn't it make the city full of blood and blood? Why haven't you heard of it?
"This is actually a kind of life-extending treasure. Although it is invaluable, the top nobles of the kingdom have more or less stock, and the life torrent is only valid for six years." Master Dereit seems to see Li Ao's doubts, shook his head slightly and said, "The treasures for prolonging life are exclusive, and the top nobles may have treasures for prolonging life at a higher level."
"But the Klein family is not a top noble," Leo realized.
"Yes, when the other party came to the jewelry store under my name with the main material of Life Torrent - Life Crystal, he also asked to make it in secret, and then said that it was for the Queen." De Ruett said a little helplessly. "Actually, who he works for has nothing to do with our jewelry association, as long as he comes to Luzheng, he will pay.
And he also paid a deposit in advance. We haven't heard about the theft of life crystals recently, so we agreed to the deal. As for who wants to customize it, we don't care too much, especially for this kind of life-extending treasure. If we want to hide the news, we naturally won’t spread it everywhere, if not…”
"Could it be that this has nothing to do with the queen?" Leo could hear the meaning of Master De Rueter's words. Obviously, if the other party happily paid the price, it was impossible for Master De Rueter to have such an expression.
"Well," Master Dereit said with a wry smile, "it's just that the price is extremely expensive after all, and we also need production time, so we made it according to installments, but later, the cardinal did not have the financial resources to pay the remaining amount. the last payment."
Cardinal?
Leo raised his eyebrows again? Cardinal, this title is not what a person in the Kingdom of the Lion Realm looks like. After searching for his memory, it seems that there is only...
"Could it be the Cardinal Haitings of the Holy See of Dawn in the kingdom?" Leo guessed an appointment, and looked at Master Derrit in front of him questioningly.
"That's right," Master Dereit nodded and said with a wry smile, "Ordinary people, we wouldn't agree to his request for installment payment, if it weren't for Cardinal Haitings, alas..."
Cardinal Haitings!
Leo also smiled bitterly in his heart. Sure enough, the characters involved were bigger than each other. The cardinal is the most effective assistant and guardian of the Pope Dawn in the administration of the universal church.
The Dawn Code of the Holy See refers to the "cardinal" as the Pope's Senate, which is selected and appointed by the Pope, and has the right to elect the Pope in accordance with the law, assisting the Pope in handling more important matters in a collective or individual manner.
Cardinals, also known as cardinals, have a very high status in the Holy See. They are divided into the leadership of the various ministries of the Holy See and the leadership of important dioceses in many countries. It can be said that it is a free country if it does not prevent the major Holy Sees from preaching.
Of course, this also means that the strength of the Holy See branch here is far from the situation where the Holy See would abolish the king without a word in Leo's novels in the previous life, but as the cardinal of the Holy See of Dawn, in charge of the lion The diocese of the realm is naturally one of the most worthy characters in the royal capital.
How could such a person not be able to pay?
For a while, Leo was a little surprised, but he immediately thought that the torrent of life might really be too expensive, causing Cardinal Haitings to have no expensive financial resources to pay for it for a while?
"Then..." Leo also thought of something, "Isn't this made for the queen? Could it be that Cardinal Haitings faked the queen's name? This is too..."
Leo felt that his thoughts became more and more chaotic. Cardinal Haitings is also a decent person, and his status and status are also quite extraordinary. How could he make a necklace in the name of the queen? Can't pay?
Isn't this lie just broken? As Cardinal Haitings of the Holy See of Dawn, wouldn't it be so stupid, is there another reason?
"Actually, it didn't mean that the money could not be paid at all at that time," Master Dereit said with a wry smile. "The money in the later period was paid by Cardinal Haitings with bills."
Bill payment?
Leo blinked, as if Pender's progress in finance was faster than he thought.
"Only one time, when my students inadvertently complained to the Queen about this, did they learn this amazing news that the Queen did not entrust Cardinal Haitings to make this chain!" Master De Ruet shook his head and said, "And some of the previous life torrent accessories have also been taken away by Cardinal Haitings, and the value of those is quite expensive.
Therefore, we found the Klein family specifically because of this time, but the Klein family naturally refused to admit it, and there was a small dispute over this. This is what you saw. "
"Then why did it calm down?" Leo felt that his head was not enough.
"Because the Klein family still wants the torrent of life. On the one hand, they coordinate with Cardinal Haitings, and on the other hand, they also want us to continue to make the torrent of life. This is why the Klein family suddenly has a lot of financial resources. .
They not only have to pay the follow-up costs, but also pay for the previous up-front costs. If they don't care about this life torrent, we can naturally discuss the account with Haitings, but the accessories in the early stage have to be redone. The Ryan family has to bear everything for this. If he wants us to continue making, the accessories in the early stage are indispensable. "Master Dereit said with a wry smile.
"Are those early accessories missing?" Leo only felt that today's story had twists and turns.
"That's right," Master Dereit nodded. "That's why the Klein family's financial resources are so tight. They really liked that necklace, so they had to pay too much. If the previous accessories could be recovered, they would naturally belong to them. To Haitings himself, if those bills hold.
But that would make it impossible to start the construction before the parts were retrieved, and the Klein family of Life Torrents also needed it very much. Only then did they reach an agreement with Haitings. After the parts were retrieved, they belonged to the Klein family. Seventy percent of the original price was paid to Haitings. "
"The Klein family is too... crazy," Leo stammered a little. This expenditure is really not small. I didn't expect that the Klein family's handwriting would be so big.
"No way, I can see that they desperately need this torrent of life, but Cardinal Haitings is obviously very annoyed by this matter. He has not suffered such a big loss yet." Master De Ruett smiled bitterly. He shook his head and said, "Especially..."
Especially what?
Looking at Master De Ruett's half-smile expression, he was obviously full of sneering and mocking, but he kept his mouth shut and seemed rather apprehensive. Leo was also very helpless.
"Thank you for letting me know." Leo got the answer he wanted, and politely got up and said goodbye.
"Well, it can be seen that you still have a lot of troubles. If you have free time, you can come and sit often." Master Dereit naturally saw that Leo seemed to be extremely troubled at this time, and he did not try to hold back.
…
When he left the mansion, he saw that Master Nadrit's attitude changed greatly, from the original disdain to the cordiality with Leo, Brown was also extremely surprised. No, why did the attitude change so obviously in a short period of time?
But obviously, Leo didn't pay attention to what he meant.
"Let's go, follow me to visit Bishop Haitings," Leo's first words after walking out the door made Brown very confused, Bishop Haitings, the cardinal of the Holy See at Dawn?
Why did my grown-up suddenly visit him? Could it have something to do with the case?
For a while, Brown was very puzzled, but obviously, Leo was not interested in giving him a reasonable explanation.
Rows of houses are continuous, with a faint and holy atmosphere. The tall and majestic church is in the middle, surrounded by all the temple guards. The white armor is extremely dazzling, and the atmosphere is particularly strong.
Especially, the few Dawn Knights in the middle!
The lion squires behind Leo also squinted slightly. The Knights of Dawn, also the top knights in the mainland, are quite powerful. Naturally, the relationship between the two parties will not be so harmonious.
But after all, the other party was in the capital, and they had obtained permission, so it was not convenient for them to attack.
However, this group of people was obviously menacing, and it also attracted the attention of many believers, and a priest got up with a little complexity on his face, "Sir, this is where the Dawn Church is, I don't know why you came here. ?"
The strength of the Holy See of Dawn is still very strong, but in the Kingdom of Lions, their strength is too limited. According to the teachings, they should not submit to the authority of the kingdom, but according to the reality, he has to bow down. .
Seeing this group of people being so unscrupulous and rude in the place where the church is located, the priest felt extremely angry but deeply powerless, after all, the other party is the official orthodox!
"Is Cardinal Haitings here?" Leo asked.
For Cardinal Haitings?
The priest was stunned for a moment. After all, Haitings was a cardinal of the Holy See Branch of the Kingdom of the Lion Kingdom, and the Holy See of the Kingdom of the Lion Kingdom was under his jurisdiction. UU Reading www.uukanshu. The status of com is very noble, and most people see it wherever they want.
"My lord, he is the kingdom's patrol officer. He was ordered by the king to investigate and deal with serious cases. He came to visit Cardinal Haitings in person. Why don't you hurry up and report it?" Brown looked at the dull eyes and shouted a little helplessly. , This kind of small person also needs his dignified deputy envoy to come forward in person, which is really a bit of a bargain.
But after all, my lord, how can a normal patrolling make such a head?
"Patrol!" The priest whispered, looking particularly shocked and frightened. He is not a high-level official of the Holy See, and most of the sources of information come from the market. The depiction of Leo is naturally mixed with a lot of art. breath.
This also made the rumors very absurd, but the priest only had these sources of information, so naturally his gaze towards Leo became more and more frightened and complicated.
Of course, he didn't hesitate, he hurriedly bowed and said, "I'll report it right away."
As he said that, he ran directly towards the church, lest he would run a little slower. The wind patrol who was rumored to kill at will with a wave of his hand cut him directly, so that he would accompany the goddess, he did not know. , but he can be sure that he has definitely not lived enough!
"This is the wind patrol? So young!"
"Why did he come to our church? Could it be that he also came to pray?" Many believers looked at Leo in front of them and felt extremely surprised.
"No way, his style of behavior is not in line with our Dawn Holy See." Some believers frowned, looking at Leo with a little fear mixed with a touch of rejection.
Obviously, Leo's image in their hearts is not very good.
