Chapter 281
Of course, a line must be added at the end, the Royal Holy Empire and the Holy Religion Affiliated Agent Branch, and then the Kingdom of Jioral must be added.
Once he controls the Phoenix family, he can directly incorporate the Bowen Chamber of Commerce into the Phoenix General Chamber of Commerce.
He had already calculated these clearly in his mind.
Everything went well, the problem was with the painter.
What a coincidence. The Holy Church specifically planned to conduct a large-scale publicity campaign covering the whole world for his kind of thing.
So not only did he call away those in his church who could draw, he also took away those in the palace.
The church also has printing workshops in other cities, so it doesn't matter if one of them is given to him, but there are only so many excellent painters, and they all shoulder heavy responsibilities.
This is a business matter, and it is clear whether it is more important than the illustrations in the novel, so I don’t force it.
I could only go back to the hotel dejectedly, thinking about asking about outstanding folk painters later.
When he published a novel for the first time, he would definitely strive for excellence and seek only the best. He would not consider painters with average skills at all.
When Rin returned to the guest house, she happened to see Yin and Yan at the door, so she cheered up and went to say hello.
"You came to see me?"
When Yin saw Rin, his eyes lit up. After bowing, he said, "Master Rin, I have been waiting for a long time."
Yan also stepped forward to salute with excitement on his face. It seemed that the minor injuries he had suffered before were almost healed.
"Why don't you go up and wait for me and just stand down below?"
Yan Xin was outspoken, scratched his head and said: "His Royal Highness, we don't want to see the brave and..."
Lin frowned and was about to ask, but saw Yin tugging at Yan's sleeve and giving him a warning look.
Why do you say that there are church knights and sword masters standing behind Rin? How can you say it to his face? Wouldn't that ruin the Son's painstakingly hidden plan?
Seeing Yan shut up, Yin said: "We are here to report the progress of the work you have arranged recently."
Chapter 57 My priest, I will definitely live up to you
"Come up with me."
Rin said nothing and entered the guest house.
When he returned to his room, he saw a fat thing scurrying across the ground like a mouse and pounced directly on him.
"Yeah!"
【younger brother! You are finally back! I miss you so much. 】
Then she hugged Rin's face and sucked it up hard.
At this time, Rin felt as if he had been attacked by a facehugger. He was stunned for two seconds, then directly opened it, took it and threw it on the sofa.
"You loser brave man, keep an eye on it! This little thing is growing up really fast. He is so energetic in just a few days."
Naturally, he didn't know that Lord Evil God just performed exceptionally after seeing him.
Lin Wuyue struggled to stand up from the sofa, and planned to pounce on Rin, but was thrown into her arms by Emilia.
【No! younger brother! You can't do this to me! 】
Lin Wuyue screamed in grief and anger, but she couldn't escape from Fei Miao's arms. She couldn't bite her, so she cried in anger.
"This name is really correct. As expected, the guy is exactly the same."
Rin sighed helplessly.
Qi Yu first covered his ears with his hands, and then became impatient with the noise, so he threw a silence spell over it.
The world suddenly became quiet, and Rin extended her hand to invite Yin and Yan to sit down.
"Don't you have a work report? Let's talk about it."
Yin frowned slightly and looked around.
Here, there are princesses, brave men, sword masters, and even a demon king.
Yuye Elise and the others had already heard about it after they came to participate in the competition, and it was easy to judge the identity. Qiyu came to the rescue last time and was able to subdue the more than 60-level death accuser with one shot. His identity is undoubtedly the Demon King.
Excluding the other three, the remaining one with blue hair is the hero.
These four people are all the great god Shenyu wants to be wary of.
From the current point of view, they are still a step too late. These people have already bewitched the Holy Son, and it is very likely that they have an unclear relationship.
His Royal Highness the Son can even discuss church affairs with himself in front of them without any scruples.
what to do?
They had just gained recognition from the Son, and direct dissuasion would only arouse his dissatisfaction.
But just watching Rin hang out with these women, wouldn't it be a serious violation of the oracle given by the great god?
What should be done?
She was thinking about a good idea when she heard Yan ask strangely: "Your Highness the Son of God, are they all here... okay?"
"It's great, we are all our own people." Rin said nonchalantly.
Yin Xin sighed, secretly saying that it was true.
She hasn't come up with any suitable solution yet, so she can only suppress her fear and hostility towards a few people and say instead: "Brother, everything is centered on His Highness. Whatever Lord Rin says will be whatever he says."
Yan knew that his sister was very resourceful, so she had a reason for saying so, so she had no choice but to shut up.
Yin continued: "Master Rin, we have recruited twenty-eight believers in Glow City in the past two days. They have basically passed the test. The initiation ceremony will be held in the evening of these two days. Do you want to host the ceremony? ?”
Rin was a little curious: "A test? Is it a test of faith like the Holy Church?"
"Well, although they are all tests of faith, the methods are very different. The teachings of our church are to experience the suffering of the soul and body and seek the truth in death, so that we can feel grateful from the heart when we are reborn. The gift of the gods strengthens the admiration in the heart.”
Rin thought about it and thought that she was referring to the ascetic practice. The so-called rebirth and death are also the arguments that many churches often use to pretend to be mysterious.
He just wanted to restrain the evil god cult from doing bad things, and he didn't care too much about other things.
"No need, you can handle the church affairs yourself."
Yin was a little disappointed, but still nodded obediently.
"Master Lin, is there anything else you need to arrange?"
Rin waved his hand and was about to drive him away, but suddenly thought of something and asked hurriedly: "Do you know any powerful painters, or have you heard of them? It's best to be a free painter."
Yin heard this, and her silver eyes were a little strange.
Yan, who was standing by, immediately had the problem of talking too much and said proudly: "Lord Lin, do you still need to look outside? My sister is the best painter I have ever seen!"
"Huh?"
Rin's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked quickly: "Are you kidding? I want the kind that can draw book illustrations."
"Of course, Yin has been very good at drawing since she was a child, and she also knows many kinds of painting techniques and types. The best ones are oil painting and watercolor painting! It is because of her portrait of the Son of God drawn according to the oracle of the Great God that we can find the Son of God immediately."
Yin was a little unnatural and said modestly: "Don't listen to my brother's bragging, I just know a little bit."
Rin smiled, then frowned and looked at Yin seriously: "Your Highness, there is a very important task and we need to find painting talents. Do you think you can do it?"
Yin was immediately moved. After thinking about it, she took out a painting she had done in her spare time and presented it with both hands, a little nervous.
After all, painting is just her personal hobby. I don't know if it can be appreciated by Lin.
The first thing Lin took was an oil painting, which depicted the glacier scenery on the snowfield. The main theme was realistic, rendering the glacier aurora and ice fog vividly and beautifully like a fairyland.
"Good! Great!"
Yan said proudly: "Not only that, my sister is also very good at drawing according to descriptions. Thanks to this, our tribe can master the identification of medicinal materials and magical beasts more quickly."
Rin looked at Yin with a completely different look, as if he was looking at a humanoid printer.
But soon, he thought of another key issue.
"How long does it take to complete a landscape painting like this?"
"At least one day."
"Uh..."
He touched his chin and stared at the painting for a long time: "It's just an illustration for a novel. It doesn't need to be so large or so detailed. The key is to draw the landmarks and features described in the book. How long will it take?"
Yin thought for less than ten seconds: "If so, just use watercolors. Watercolors are very fast. It only takes one to three hours to complete."
"Then, can you draw monsters?"
Since you have caught a talent, you must squeeze out the value of it.
Rin has been in the other world for so long, and he hasn't learned much about other things, but under the influence of the aristocratic society, he has learned this set of dregs.
Yin can feel Rin's urgency, and his eyebrows are very serious. He handed a few A4-sized papers to Rin.
Rin took it and took a look. The paintings were just a few monsters.
Yin's animal paintings are very unique. She is not the kind of person who pursues exquisite lines. Instead, she can fully reveal the characteristics of a monster through simple outlines and smears.
"Great!"
Lin was overjoyed and slapped her thigh: "How long does it take to draw this kind of painting?"
"This one is simpler and can be completed in an hour"
"My good priest!"
Lin excitedly threw the paper aside and grabbed Yin's hand: "This important mission! I will entrust it to you!"
Yin was shocked, and a little shame flashed in her eyes.
From childhood to adulthood, she was a high priest. Who dared to touch her like this? After she was eight years old, even her brother didn't dare to hold her hand.
His Highness the Son of God... really...
But he is the Son of God, and his palms are so hot.
Are people who live outside the ice field so hot?
Of course, Lin's hot hands are excited, and it would be the same for anyone.
But for a lonely girl who has never held someone's hand since she was a child, she couldn't help but think a lot at this time.
Lin's black and white eyes were pure and lovable, and since he was the Holy Son, Yin was not so angry.
She took her hand back from Lin, suppressed her panic, and asked, "Master Lin, do you want me to draw illustrations for the novel?"
"Yes!"
Lin didn't care about her claws, and took out a copy of Angela's manuscript and handed it to Yin.
"That's it. I put half of my efforts into it. I must promote this book, so I hope you can ensure the quality of the illustrations. I have marked the places where illustrations are needed."
"There are 7 scene paintings, 21 monsters and special plants, two for the male and female protagonists, three for interactions, and three for combat skills, a total of 36."
After speaking, he rubbed his hands: "How many will it take to complete these? If there is not enough time, I will find another painter to help you."
Yin flipped through the manuscript and said confidently: "No, I can finish it by myself within a week!"
"Okay! You are worthy of being my most trusted high priest! The first important piece of my business map is handed over to you! Don't worry, His Highness will not treat you unfairly."
Rin patted her shoulder: "From now on, you are my exclusive first painter and the chief illustrator of the Chamber of Commerce. In the future, when we publish more books and need more painters, they will all be handed over to you for management. As for the salary..."
Yin suddenly said seriously: "It is the duty of the high priest to work for Lord Lin, and money is something outside of the body. It is useless for me to take it."
Yan also nodded repeatedly.
They really don't care about money. For the two of them, if they want money, they can just rob it or ask the believers to donate it. The main purpose is to expand the church.
For them, there are very few places where they need to spend money. In other words, they just need to take a little to deal with it.
It feels like they are not worldly but reluctantly follow the local customs.
"!"
Fuck, there are actually people with such high awareness in this world.
Rin was so moved at that time. He liked Yin so much that he instantly regarded her as his confidant.
Capable, loyal, obedient, and not asking for salary.
Long live the Great God Church, thank you my idiot sister.
