Chapter 1793 Bishop of America's Discipline

In addition to ordering the public to promote this plan to "develop 100,000 Christians" among the people, Marin also formally submitted a written plan to "develop 100,000 Christians" to the Holy See in the name of "King of America" ​​and "Saving the Grand Head of the Knights".
At this time, the rumors of Marin catching slaves in the Americas had spread to the city of Rome. Julius II, Marin's father-in-law, was causing trouble for his son-in-law. After all, he was his son-in-law and still had to help maintain his reputation.
But before Julius II could think of a countermeasure, Marin's written plan to "develop 100,000 Christians" was submitted. An old conspirator like Julius II had to admit that this plan and excuse were so beautiful!
He obviously caught slaves and worked, but when he came to Marin, he became a "development Christian". He was indeed very wise and very good at doing things...
Moreover, what surprised Julius II was that this interface not only helped Marin to whitewash himself, but also increased the prestige and achievements of his pope. You see, during my tenure as the pope, even the natives of the wild continent increased by 100,000 Christians, how shameful...
Therefore, whether it was for the motivation to protect his son-in-law or to gain his reputation, Julius II highly praised and affirmed this plan.
To this end, Julius II issued a special decree affirming Marin's plan to "develop 100,000 Christians" and stated that the Holy See would provide various conveniences for this and give it a title.
Even Julius II also gave a privilege that the King of America could nominate the Archbishop of the Kingdom of America.
In other words, although the nominal bishop appointment power of the American continent (the wild continent) is still in the hands of the Holy See, because of the nomination rights, Marin, the American king, has essentially grasped the bishop's right to be accused in the American region.
Marin also knew the meaning of the archbishop of the American archbishop, Greffin, the diocese of the New York colony, nominated him as the archbishop of the American diocese.
Greffin was originally the first disciple of Archbishop Taylor's sect, and was Taylor's third disciple. Of course, he was also the first priest to take the initiative to go to the American colonies to serve as a priest. In recent years, he has been brainwashing and fooling Marin in the New York colonies, which is also a great contribution.
Moreover, Greffin was a Friesian. He not only understood German and Latin, but also spoke Friesian who could communicate with English. Just in time, the most immigrants in the New York colony were English refugees. Therefore, he also shouldered the important task of fooling those English immigrants.
Therefore, this time, Marin nominated Greffin as the Archbishop of the American Diocese on the pretext of "the first to take the initiative to preach in the wilderness."
...
In fact, Grefin, who was only 40 years old, was not qualified to serve as the archbishop of the whole America. However, Marin has been desperately hiding the area of ​​America, and no one knows that America is so big. Therefore, Grefin, a 40-year-old archbishop of the Americas, had no idea. If everyone knew that the combined area of ​​America, North and South America was more than eight times that of Western Europe (about 5 million square kilometers), it would probably be a archbishop who was willing to serve as the archbishop.
Of course, before that, everyone will first break the head for seizing the American territory...
The son-in-law's face is to be given, and Julius II also hopes to encourage adventurous young priests to take the initiative to go to wild places like America or Africa to spread the "God of the Lord".
To this end, Julius II convened a Vatican meeting and agreed to Marin's nomination on the grounds that "Greffin was the first brave missionary to take the initiative to go to the wild continent."
Not only that, Julius II also gave him a "big gift package" - the bishop of the American sub-diges, which was decided by the Archbishop of the United States and the King of America.
This decision is of far-reaching significance, indicating that the King of America has actually controlled the control of the Church in the Kingdom of America - the Archbishop was originally nominated by the king, and then the king was able to discuss and decide on appointment and removal with the Archbishop of America... Because the king will definitely nominate the Archbishop who listens to him, it is equivalent to the King of America controlling the control of the Church in the country...
However, the current wave of this incident is not very big. Why? Because the legendary "King of America" ​​is actually a wild continent. The so-called control of the church is not at all prominent now...
...
Moreover, the king controls the church, and this is actually not an exception. Because the French king has long had this right...
At that time, King Philip IV of France had taken control of the church two hundred years ago and kidnapped the Pope to Avignon. The puppet Pope Clemen V, supported by Philip IV, not only cooperated with Philip IV to frame the Knights Templar and embezzled the Knights' property, but also agreed to Philip IV to impose "tith tax" on France's teachings...
This is the first time to create the world. Only the Holy See has always been taxed by the Secular State, but I have never seen a secular state collect taxes from the church...
But Philip IV, a fierce man, dared to do this, and directly turned the Pope into a puppet!
You should know that the "tith tax" levied by Philip IV on the French church is not a ten-drawn out of the "tith tax" levied by the church on the believers, but a benefit to the entire French church. It not only includes the "tith tax" levied by the church, but also the land income of the church.
France has therefore had a more relaxed fiscal revenue than other countries, which can be used to support the army of 10,000 or 20,000 knights. In other countries, let alone the amazing food consumption of war horses, even 10,000 or 20,000 infantry can't afford it...
...
Of course, the whole of Europe collects taxes from the church, which is the only one in France. After all, people can do this by turning the Pope into a puppet of France. Other countries have not yet dared to kidnap the Pope.
In other words, France not only does not have to pay the "tith tax" to the Holy See, but also levys "tith tax" to the domestic teachings.
But the French have big fists, and that was authorized by the Pope before, so even if the Roman Catholic Church is dissatisfied with France, it would not dare to say anything.
Of course, Marin's approach is actually similar to that of the French, and they all use the pope to seek benefits for themselves. But the difference is that the French simply and roughly kidnapped the pope; while Marin first "sleeping" the pope's daughter, and "sleeping" two...
Then, the only two daughters were deceived by Marin, and the pope had no son, so he could only pinch his nose and help his son-in-law seek benefits...
After obtaining the divine power of the bishop of the American continent, Marin was also very happy. Although this privilege is inconspicuous at this moment, I think about the size of America and so many people...
