Um
"The matter of your transfer... has more to do with me?" Wu Qingchen turned her head suspiciously: "Pastor Paul, what do you mean?"
Could it be... you want to be transferred to the village of Akeli
Thinking of this, Wu Qingchen immediately became vigilant.
No matter now or in the future, the village of Akeli is extremely important in the earth's planning, and the importance of such a key position as the village priest is obviously beyond doubt.
Wu Qingchen, or in other words, the Earth, has gone through a lot of hard work to establish a good relationship with Priest Praia. The next series of actions also need this goodwill, as well as Priest Praya's already known character, in order to be easily executed.
Under such a premise, at this stage, let alone Pastor Paul rushing to the street, even if the parish or Baron Ackford wants to deal with Pastor Praia, the Earth will try their best to resist.
Probably Wu Qingchen's involuntary hostility was too obvious. Pastor Paul was slightly taken aback, and immediately understood Wu Qingchen's suspicion.
"Uh..." Pastor Paul quickly explained: "It's not what you think. Pastor Gela from Adovi Village is getting old and wants to go back to the parish to do some light work... This is an opportunity for me."
"Oh?" Wu Qingchen nodded slowly, but there was no other reaction.
"Really!" Seeing that the doubts in Wu Qingchen's eyes did not dissipate, Pastor Paul said more sincerely: "It is impossible to be transferred to Akeli Village no matter where I am transferred... I still want Deacon Talma to help, How could it be possible to play His Excellency Playa's idea?"
Well... that's true.
Wu Qingchen nodded slightly.
Thinking about it, it would be impossible for the street priest to fool an old fox like Deacon Talma.
"Then what do you mean by 'relative to me' just now?"
"Huh..." After dispelling Wu Qingchen's hostility, Pastor Paul heaved a sigh of relief, but he did not continue to answer Wu Qingchen's question directly, but first raised another topic: "Mr. Ross, I don't know Mr. Praia Have you ever told you that as a pastor, the work in Fort Ackford is a little more difficult than in other places?"
Of course, Wu Qingchen knew that he had read several papers. When it came to the sociological principles of "Ackford Fort Priesthood", Wu Qingchen's understanding would only be more profound than Pastor Paul's.
But Pastor Pujie made this point on purpose. He obviously had something to say, so Wu Qingchen had no choice but to give it a go: "Teacher mentioned it a little bit. As for what's going on, if it's convenient, I have to ask you to advise."
"Actually, it's not a secret..." Pastor Paul smiled wryly and looked around. The church students, mill apprentices and others immediately walked away calmly.
After waiting for more than ten seconds, when the crowd had gone away and started to pretend to appreciate the scenery, Pastor Paul lowered his voice slightly: "This is the direct leadership of His Excellency Baron Ackford, the three most important things in the church are tithes and missionary work. In Pingjing, it’s more troublesome to do. To collect taxes, of course, His Excellency the Baron has to collect them first. When it’s the church’s turn, the villagers have only enough rations for the winter; such a small amount of food should be collected by force. There is no hope for missionary work. Take it, there is no hope for the tithe, and there is a dilemma; it is even more impossible in Pingjing. Your Excellency the Baron can dispatch several knights casually. I have been here for four years at the church. Police officers from six households, it is still six households now, and one of the police officers is still sick, and it is estimated that he will not last this year."
"You have worked hard."
Wu Qingchen said with some sympathy.
"Apart from these, other places are fine, even a little better than other villages..." Pastor Paul continued: "Tithes are not paid properly, missionary work is ineffective, and they are rarely blamed..."
Of course, there will be no blame. The conditions are just like this, and it has been like this for decades. Everyone knows very well that the establishment of a church here is not for this little money. —Wu Qingchen recalled the papers he had browsed for a while, and they had already been dissected clearly.
"Don't worry about thieves..."
It is safer to be directly next to the lord. Besides, even if it is not safe, the church does not have the strength to worry about it with a few police officers who dig up food every day. —Wu Qingchen recalled the papers he had browsed for a while, and they had already been dissected clearly.
"War horses, weapons, clothes, sheepskin scrolls, food and other utensils are even more adequate..."
Of course, it must be sufficient, this is a must, especially in front of the lord, if the pastor is turned into a beggar, where will the face of the church be placed? —Wu Qingchen recalled the papers he had browsed for a while, and they had already been dissected clearly.
"When the parish discusses, there is also a seat in the pastor's table. Well, that's right... During the last meeting, I sat opposite His Excellency Praia."
Must have a seat, of course, and be listed as a member of the official priesthood. In addition, the so-called sitting opposite Praia during the last meeting seemed very close, but in terms of ranking, there was at least six seats in the middle. However, no matter what, as long as you have a position, you have the qualification to speak with the lord and have a basis for work. —Wu Qingchen briefly recalled the papers he had browsed...
Huh
What about the location
At any rate, after taking a few courses in management and game theory, Wu Qingchen keenly sensed that Pastor Paul had something to say.
"So..." Speaking of this, Pastor Paul smiled slightly: "Sometimes, although the position of Pastor Ackerford Castle is not very good, it must not be said to be too bad..."
Fuck!
Wu Qingchen opened her mouth wide.
When Wu Qingchen turned pale with shock, Pastor Paul slowly said the last two words: "It is especially suitable for young people... especially you, Your Excellency Ross."
I'll give you a lung!
This dead-on-the-street, planning to throw away your position on the street to me
Who wants to be the street priest in this damn place? What a fart you are laughing!
Wu Qingchen wanted to rush forward and grab Pastor Paul's neck, but the bird man's face was full of "Aren't you surprised?" expression.
and many more…
Isn't it a surprise? Isn't it a surprise...
Wu Qingchen forcibly suppressed the anger in his chest, his mind turned quickly, and soon vaguely touched on the reason that Pastor Paul thought he was credited.
Probably interpreting Wu Qingchen's dumbfounded expression as unbelievable joy, Pastor Paul smiled and said, "Your Excellency Los, as far as I know, Deacon Talma has already made arrangements. , whenever he leaves the village of Akeli, will you preside over the church?"
"Well… "
This is the wind that Talma deliberately released, and there is no need to avoid it.
Wu Qingchen nodded numbly.
"After presiding over the church, it takes at least three years and at most five years before you can become a real pastor, right?"
Normally, of course.
Wu Qingchen continued to nod blankly.
"Master Asylum, I wish you all the best." Pastor Paul blessed first, and then said: "However, three years, five years, not a little time, during this period, who can guarantee that no accidents will happen...even if there are no accidents... Accident..." Pastor Paul pointed to himself, "Isn't there such a thing as a transfer? Who can guarantee that no one will covet your position?"
"But..." Wu Qingchen quickly opened his mouth as the shock in his heart calmed down a little.
"I know!" Pastor Paul raised a hand, "Healing cattle, moving beehives, bee swarming... well, and the 'beehive tax' you brought over this time are all new things, good things..."
As he said that, Pastor Paul showed a slightly meaningful smile to Wu Qingchen, saying that he had not just eaten a few dry meals in Akford for the past few years—at least, the idea that Wu Qingchen proposed at the dinner yesterday did not Pastor Paul, who participated, has a way to know: "However, the new and good things now, wait until three or five years later, and after everyone gets used to it, how many people will still remember it?"
"Your Excellency Los, your father is a freeman..." Pastor Paul put on the most sincere expression and tone: "It's not your fault, but it's a natural defect... Don't mention these achievements of yours if you were replaced by other gentlemen. Three to five years, even ten years, someone will remember to help you speak... But you are only one person, if you don't take advantage of the time when the value and effect are the highest, who can guarantee what will happen in the future? Opportunities are rare. "
