Chapter 425: All about making money
Good luck!
Griffin finally felt at ease.
The guy named Ya'an didn't lie to him. The commission he issued for him was indeed useful!
It's ironic.
Griffin was supposed to be the most loyal person to the Glow Cult.
He has done meritorious service for the church, and he has shed blood for the church.
As a result, at this time, he was expecting a pagan!
Because he was isolated by other members of the local Glow God Cult!
Unable to find any help internally, he had no choice but to turn to "outsiders."
At this time, Griffin could no longer think about how the other party sneaked into the church.
The iconic purple-gray fog is obviously a characteristic of the stalker profession.
Normally, everyone's attitude toward stalkers is one of fear and hatred.
They are elusive and difficult to guard against.
Even if they are traced and captured by various methods afterwards, the losses caused by their capture are likely to be irreparable.
But now Griffin feels that the stalker must be useful!
Upon hearing the other party mention the commission fee, Griffin said without hesitation:
"I have a two-story building with a front courtyard at the west end of the cross street in Ceylon City. I'll give you the key. There is a safe in the cabinet in the bedroom on the second floor. There is money in it that can be exchanged at Caron United Savings. The bill is exactly 100 gold coins!”
The other party mentioned Ya'an's name, and Griffin was sure that he had never told the third person about his commission to find evidence against Bishop Henry Trump.
In this case, he can only choose to believe the other party's identity.
Reina smiled with satisfaction when she heard this, took out a bundle of parchment from her arms, and threw it to Griffin.
Griffin took it as if he had found a treasure and couldn't wait to open it.
"Henry Trump, 2493 gold;"
"Jaffron Pule, 769 gold;"
"Oyler Cochrane, 650 gold;"
"..."
The string that catches the eye is the name of the person plus the amount of money, in gold coins.
Griffin was stunned: "What is this?"
Because of Rena's identity as a stalker, his first reaction was that this was the price for paying someone to kill someone.
On second thought, I felt something wasn't quite right.
If the price is really an assassination, how can there be zero and round numbers, accurate to single digits!
2493 gold, why not just mark it at 2500 gold?
Reina answered Griffin's doubts very simply:
"Except for you, the priests of the Glorious Religion in Ceylon, from the bishops to the ordinary priests, all of them have used their power and responsibilities to do something improper or in violation of canon rules in recent years. Get income statistics.”
"Time is limited, and those that are further back, unfortunately, there is no time to investigate."
Griffin was shocked!
He looked back at the information on the parchment.
The largest amount belongs to Bishop Henry Trump, with nearly 2,500 gold coins.
Others generally have hundreds of gold coins as well.
The lowest guarantee for ordinary priests is 100 gold coins, which is more than three digits!
This data has a big impact on Griffin!
In the past few years since he became the commander of the Crusaders, his allowance must have increased a lot, but after deducting various daily expenses, what he was able to save in the end was not particularly large.
Therefore, his savings only amounted to a few hundred gold coins. He had previously wanted to spend 1,000 gold as a commission reward, but he had to grit his teeth and be prepared to borrow money.
Reina curled her lips: "What's surprising about this? Isn't this a normal phenomenon for you?"
She came from Greenport, and in a place where corruption was rampant, she was almost desensitized to things like making money through power and responsibility.
"We..." Griffin was speechless.
Griffin has indeed heard of people in the church using so-called unfair means to gain income.
The method is very simple.
Just do it under the banner of emptiness, evil gods, and pollution.
In addition to providing people with corresponding magical treatments for a fee, the Glow God Religion also has a very important daily responsibility, which is to "check whether there is void pollution and the threat of the coming of evil gods in the parish."
This is not unique to Ceylon.
Available everywhere.
The concept of "void pollution" is very broad.
A piece of monster material that has not been completely purified, an item that has been affected before, or even a rainfall can lead to void pollution.
The core of the problem is that the final interpretation of the inspection results belongs to the Glow God Religion!
Meaning.
The Glow God Cult says you are safe, you are safe;
If you say you are not safe, then you are not!
Because the number of priests blessed by the God of Radiance was limited, they couldn't afford to check every item in every household, so they used a less troublesome method.
Give a safety rating!
Venus represents safety and black star represents danger.
The safest place is a place like the headquarters of the Glow God Sect, with 6 full stars, which means it is absolutely safe, and there is no need to worry about the danger of evil contamination brought by the void.
The most dangerous thing, like the center of the dark forest, is full of 6 black stars, which represents absolute danger. If a mortal steps on it, he will die!
At this point, the Glow Divine Cult's method has the same meaning as Novin's approach to regional stability.
But the difference between the two is.
Noven is a god who will handle it himself, and it is absolutely fair and just.
On the Glow Divine Cult side, safety evaluations are made by mortals.
The floating range of the 12 stars above and below naturally represents the space for operation.
For example, first find a suitable target.
Usually a merchant.
Directly warn the other party that your shop, tavern, hotel, goods, etc. are being affected by void pollution.
Do nothing?
Then warn the other party that if it is not dealt with, the impact of the pollution will become serious, and the Glow God will lower its safety rating.
Reduce Venus!
For merchants, this means that its goods may have to undergo more inspections, and the popularity of the store will be seriously affected.
Want to eliminate the threat?
Then honestly pay the priest to perform the purification spell.
As for whether the other party is affected by the pollution?
The answer is if.
Whether it is or not depends on the priest responsible for inspection and purification!
If the money is not in place, it is yes;
If the money is in place, it means that the purification of the spell is very successful and the pollution has been eliminated!
...
In addition, the priests of the Glow God have many other improper ways to make money.
The common feature is that these methods basically take advantage of the fact that only the Radiant Divine Art can intervene.
On the surface, there is no doubt that these methods are against the rules of the church, and once they are verified, they will be subject to extremely severe punishment.
Griffin had always thought that no one would dare to do such a thing due to the pressure of high-pressure punishment.
The list that Rena threw to him slapped him in the face!
The fact is:
Not only did someone violate the rules of the church, but there were more than one or two such people!
He was the only honest man.
The others - all made money!
