Chapter 3926 Saint
The followers were so happy! They shouted Lin Feng's name like a mountain and a sea. .
Wind God! Wind God! Wind God!
At this moment, all the followers were crazy, and people all over the world envied the followers and Lin Feng's generosity. With a shopping budget of $10,000 per person, it was too tempting in Italy, a shopping paradise. Italian furs, glass products, and all kinds of Italian food, these followers can enjoy them to their heart's content. This is extremely tempting for anyone in the world.
Of course, the most enviable and jealous object among them is Lin Feng. This guy is too generous. 200,000 followers, $10,000 per person, that's a full $2 billion. Lin Feng's hand is too big, he threw out $2 billion in a flash, this is too generous, too generous, too fucking shit!
Isn't it, where did this money come from? It's not the $30 billion that Lin Feng earned from selling "Nu Wa" to 30 countries before. Damn, this guy is spending money on others! ——Bush was furious after hearing the news.
1 billion US dollars, although it is not a big number for the United States. But it is not easy to get it from the annual budget of the United States. As a result, it was squandered by this kid. This kind of generosity is too despicable. Unforgivable!
Of course, the most unforgivable thing is that this matter that was supposed to [***] explode was actually resolved peacefully. This is what really makes Bush confused and puzzled. First, how could the church reconcile with Lin Feng? Second, how could Lin Feng agree to rebuild the Vatican wall? Third, how could Benedict XVI agree to it.
These three doubts must be clarified.
"Investigate, and make sure to find out the strangeness." Bush ordered.
Originally, this matter might have become Lin Feng's Waterloo, but in the end, this matter was just glossed over, and it seemed that Lin Feng and the church had a harmonious relationship. This is not good news.
At the stage when Bush ordered a strict investigation, an earthquake also occurred in the Italian political arena. The source of the earthquake was the temporary emergency visas of these 200,000 people. Before this, things were too fast and too crazy, causing everyone in the Italian political arena to be in danger, fearing that this "holy war" between religions would eventually implicate the entire Italian political arena, and even the entire Italy. Therefore, no one went to investigate the source of the emergency visas of these 200,000 people.
But now that these politicians are no longer threatened, they have more thoughts. How did these 200,000 believers come to Italy? Why were they able to land in Italy? Are their visas legal? As a result, this investigation found that something big had happened. The visas held by these 200,000 believers were emergency temporary visas, which did not exist in Italian history, which means that these 200,000 believers were not legal at all.
They were not eligible to stay in Italy.
Now, the fun is big. They are staying illegally, so how did they stay illegally? Who issued this emergency temporary visa. Although Bernardo was behind this matter, it is obviously impossible to be completely unaware in this era of advanced technology and information explosion. Soon the Italian Congress knew that this political visa was issued by Berlusconi.
So, Berlusconi, why did you issue emergency temporary visas to these 200,000 believers? Don't you know that this is illegal? Don't you know that this may bring major social security risks to Italy! Don't you know that this may cause tens of thousands of people to stay in Italy illegally! If so, Italy's economy, public security, and residents' sense of happiness in life will decline in the future. And all of this is caused by you, Berlusconi.
So, immediately, the Congress questioned Berlusconi and asked him to explain why he issued such an emergency temporary visa. Facing the questioning of the Congress, Berlusconi was also overwhelmed. If he answered this question improperly, he would definitely step down. After all, he has made many enemies in Italian politics. Now that he has a chance, these political enemies will naturally not let him go.
Originally, he thought that this matter should be easy to solve. With Bernardo's intervention and the fact that it would definitely cause a lot of trouble, these politicians should not have the time to care about these things. Who would have thought that Lin Feng and the church would solve it peacefully. This was really a bit unexpected. It was beyond everyone's expectations.
Of course, facing the accusations of Congress, Berlusconi would naturally not sit idly by. He claimed that the reason he issued this temporary visa was out of humanitarian spirit. He saw that Lin Feng was suffering there, and this involved a religious war. In order to prevent the religious war from affecting the comfort of the whole of Italy, Berlusconi issued this emergency temporary visa. And this emergency temporary visa was guaranteed by the Chinese government and Lin Feng. They can ensure that these 200,000 people will never bring any harm to Italy. At the same time, these 200,000 people will bring at least 2 billion US dollars in foreign exchange to Italy.
Obviously, Berlusconi's statement is far-fetched. However, what makes many hostile politicians speechless is that these 200,000 believers, in addition to sightseeing and shopping, have really done nothing wrong in Italy. There was no fighting and making trouble as expected by political opponents, and all of them were very polite along the way, and did not show the usual bad habits of Chinese tourists - such as making loud noises in public places, spitting, and throwing fruit peels. His words and deeds in Italy have been praised by all Italians, and all businesses have declared that they welcome these people to come to Italy next time.
And the results of a survey conducted by major Italian media have greatly disappointed these political opponents. More than 61% of all Italians support and recognize the emergency temporary visa issued by Berlusconi this time. Especially for those businesses, when mentioning this emergency temporary visa, they are even more happy. They can't close their mouths. There is no way, everyone made a lot of money this time.
Lin Feng gave 200,000 followers, each with $10,000 for shopping and spending in Italy. These people did not hide the money like those petty people. Instead, they took it all out and used it for shopping and sightseeing in Italy. After this trip, Italy made a lot of money in catering, hotels, and entertainment. Faced with such wealth, these businessmen naturally highly praised Prime Minister Berlusconi.
In particular, for Italy, whose economy is now going downhill, this $2 billion in tourism foreign exchange, although it cannot help Italy completely get out of the predicament, can greatly alleviate the current situation. Therefore, the accusation of Berlusconi has put Congress in an embarrassing situation.
Not accusing, this is not justifiable from a legal point of view. And this may cause Berlusconi to violate the law again in the future. And accusing, the people here may not agree. Therefore, after such a tangle, Congress is also a headache. The same is true for Berlusconi's political enemies. They are also thinking about how to deal with Berlusconi.
At this juncture, Pope Benedict XVI of the Vatican died peacefully in the Vatican Palace. According to the Vatican's announcement, Benedict XVI died of old age and excessive energy consumption, so he went to see God.
This sudden obituary has undoubtedly caused heated discussions around the world. Did Benedict XVI really die of old age or was he angry to death by Lin Feng? After all, Benedict XVI was fine before, but after Lin Feng came, he fainted three times in a row, which would definitely damage his body. It seems reasonable to say that he was angry to death by Lin Feng.
However, what was completely unexpected to the outside world was that the church immediately held a new pope election ceremony after Benedict XVI's death. In the end, Francis became the new pope and the first Argentine pope in the history of the church.
Pope Francis summoned Lin Feng on the first day of his inauguration. And had a friendly discussion with him, and finally announced to the public that the church and Lin Feng had concluded a thousand-year friendship, and the two sides have since become friendly churches.
This declaration petrified the surroundings. This Lin Feng and the church have a thousand-year friendship, but what about the recently deceased Pope Benedict XVI? His body is still warm!
"Regarding Pope Benedict XVI, his death is a great loss to the church. But he left the world and went to heaven because he was called by God. He did not die of conspiracy as the outside world speculated. Therefore, we can only wish Pope Benedict XVI to rest in peace in heaven." Facing the outside world's doubts, Pope Francis said calmly, "Also, regarding 'Nuwa', after repeated discussions between Mr. Lin and me, we finally determined that 'Nuwa' is a separate life form, a life form with self-awareness and self-personality. And in view of her special surname, as well as the outside world's coveting and distrust of her, I decided to take her in as my goddaughter and let her become the saint of my church. And Mr. Lin and I will become the common guardians of 'Nuwa'!"
Francis's declaration was even more of a depth charge, which directly blew up the whole world. This is really too shocking. 'Nuwa' actually became Francis' goddaughter and a saint of the Catholic Church. This is too confusing. Although saints have existed since ancient times, they have not been mentioned for a long time. Especially after entering modern civilization, saints gradually disappeared from Catholicism.
As a result, now the saint is back. Not only is she back, but she is also an artificial intelligence life. This is too confusing. However, the Western countries are the ones who are really confused. Now, they have no excuse to seize 'Nuwa'.
"Damn it, how many benefits did Lin Feng promise to the church to make the church favor him like this." Bush gritted his teeth.
"President, according to our intelligence, just after Archbishop Francis became Pope, the church went through a major personnel change. The cardinals who were previously loyal to Benedict XVI have all left the church's power positions, and now those who hold important positions are all Francis' core members. Obviously, Lin Feng made a great contribution to Archbishop Francis's becoming Pope this time." Rice said in a deep voice, "He is in the Vatican and is closer to the Vatican than we are, so this time he may have taken the lead."
The Pope of the Vatican cannot be dismissed, and the term is lifelong. Since Lin Feng and him have reached an agreement, the relationship between the two will not change as long as Francis is in office. In this way, Lin Feng feels a bit more powerful. I am afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with him in the future.
"Check and see if there are any clues. Even if the Pope cannot be dismissed, at least the relationship between Lin Feng and him can be weakened." Bush said helplessly.
While continuing to investigate the relationship between Lin Feng and Francis, Francis once again announced a declaration, that is, he was ready to meet with Italian Prime Minister Berlusconi. As a result, less than three hours after the declaration, Francis met Berlusconi, who hurried over, in the Vatican. And in front of tens of thousands of believers, he baptized him with holy water, and then had a long talk. Afterwards, Francis declared in a private setting that Berlusconi was the best Italian Prime Minister he had ever seen, and he firmly believed that Berlusconi would lead Italy to glory.
This speech undoubtedly made Berlusconi's status in the hearts of the Italian people reach its peak. And the accusation against him by the Congress just ended like this. And the court temporarily withdrew several economic charges against Berlusconi. The influence of the Vatican Pope on Italy is extremely great, far exceeding any Western country. Now that the new Pope believes that Berlusconi can change Italy, the Italians will naturally give Berlusconi a chance to prove himself. Otherwise, the Pope has just spoken here, and Italy has accused Berlusconi. Isn't this obviously dismantling the Pope's stage? As a devout Catholic believer, how can you do such a thing.
"Pope Francis, thank you!" Lin Feng said with a laugh. This time, Lin Feng walked around the Vatican Palace to his heart's content. Of course, this was naturally allowed by Francis. For Lin Feng, the magical oriental boy, Francis adopted the church's usual policy of appeasement. Since Lin Feng cannot be offended, he must become a good friend with him.
The church has been growing and developing like this for thousands of years, and it has been preserved like this to this day. If the church has always been so arrogant, then it would have been destroyed long ago.
"Mr. Lin, we are both in the best interests of each other. Now I can give you some blessings from the church. But I also want a promise." Francis said seriously.
Lin Feng smiled slightly.
That's right, otherwise it's wrong! To be continued.
