Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

At this moment, Fernando Camplau was also very helpless. After all, the strength of the Holy See was much worse than at its peak. If it were placed in the Middle Ages, it might not be so troublesome; Denmark would have to execute a direct order. But in modern society, it is already very difficult for some ancient organizations to survive. How can they continue to give orders?

There was a long Middle Ages in the West, and the inherent impression of the millennia was: darkness, barbarism, war and plague. It gives people a feeling of stagnant social development, but as I grow older, I understand that the world's industrial revolution also happened in Europe; so this period only looks bleak compared to the glory of China. Society is still changing slowly.

For thousands of years, the three forces of the king, the lords, and the church have been entangled. When it first entered the Middle Ages, the royal power occupied a dominant position in its relations with the princes and the church by virtue of its inherent advantages. But this dominance did not last long; because the strength of the Holy See was expanding at a rate visible to the naked eye every day.

Speaking of the emperor, the first thing that comes to mind is that he is the supreme ruler of feudal society and holds supreme power. But this is only the Chinese emperor, and the European emperor can be said to be very different. Some are just puppets, and even if they are not puppets, they are still controlled by the Pope; sometimes the Pope can even directly depose the emperor at will. One can only imagine how powerful a pope must be to depose an emperor.

The pope not only has his own sphere of rule, but also has a very important source of tithes. That is, all people who believe in the Catholic Church must give ten percent of their income to the church no matter what. Some are more loyal. If they have ten sons, one of them must be sent to the church to be a missionary. This shows how huge the income is. Spain and Portugal continued to hand over this money to the Pope into the twentieth century.

However, in modern society, information has become highly developed, and two world wars have severely damaged the strength of the Holy See. Believers discovered that the Holy See, for which they were willing to sacrifice everything, could not protect them well at critical moments. The Holy See has many believers, but it does not have as much influence as before.

Of course, with the wealth accumulated over the years, there will definitely be no shortage of funds.

Now that KK Christison has asked for support, we can only help him tide over the difficulties. If he didn't take action at this time, it is estimated that Bao Zixuan could defeat Lego in one round; then the Holy See, as the initiator of this matter, would become a joke. However, it cannot be exposed directly. It is better to inform a senior Danish executive in advance; at least Hagen must not be involved in the matter.

Through surveillance, Heiyun intelligence personnel finally confirmed who was behind the scenes and reported directly to Bao Zixuan.

The boss took things so seriously that Peng Yifei came directly from Germany to Denmark; fortunately, the two countries were relatively close, so he didn't waste much time.

Unexpectedly, the Holy See is controlling everything behind the scenes. It seems that some people are really determined to give up.

Bao Zixuan: "Now that we know who is behind it, things will be easier to handle."

There was no specific explanation of how to operate, but Peng Yifei immediately understood what it meant. The boss was testing him to see how he was going to handle it, or what plans he had. This is a kind of exercise for oneself; although the work of the intelligence department has been compensated, the early stage was indeed disappointing.

Loyalty is one thing, but the most important thing is that your ability should not be too bad; if you don't have the ability to hold a high position and force yourself to do it, you will only end up harming others and yourself.

Peng Yifei: "Boss, the Holy See can contact other people to create conflicts for us; we can also follow suit. The reason why the Holy See attacked Heiyun is probably that the Holy Grail is just an excuse. Even if there is no relationship like the Holy Grail, we and the major forces in Europe and the United States, Sooner or later there will be a war. The Heiyun Group is too powerful now, but the resources in the world are limited after all."

"As for the so-called Holy Grail, it is not that important in the hearts of the Holy See. It is just for the believers to see. After all, they want to convince the people all the time, and inheritance is very important."

"The Pope is also a human being, and he will make mistakes in his decision-making, as well as the day he leaves. But the lifespan of the Holy Grail is much longer than that of humans. Even if there are problems, they can be repaired. Therefore, there is no such thing as destruction, at least believers will definitely see it. Not even."

"The Holy Grail was found in Fucaira, and there is no dispute over its ownership. And the boss handed the Holy Grail directly to the Freemasons, the most intimate enemies of the Holy See, so naturally he had to find ways to get it back."

"But now that the Holy Grail is in the hands of the Freemasons, the Holy See will not be so calm about anything. Moreover, the two sides have been fighting for hundreds of years. When they were in Europe, the Holy See did not destroy the Freemasons; now the main force of the Freemasons is In the United States, the Holy See has no way to deal with it."

"This conflict between the Holy See and the boss is definitely something that the Freemasons are happy to see. The snipe and the clam are fighting over each other to get the better of the fishermen, and the Freemasons hope that both of us will lose."

Bao Zixuan was very pleased to hear Peng Yifei's analysis; it seemed that he and Zhang Zhan had grown very quickly over the years. I am not very well-educated, nor do I know much about European and American history. It is rare to be able to analyze the problem so thoroughly now.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said, "Then where do you want to start?"

The boss recognized his analysis, and Peng Yifei was very happy. If the ability does not meet the requirements, it is estimated that the position has reached the end, or there is not much room for improvement. The Heiyun Group is getting stronger and stronger, so the people who follow the boss must also make progress, otherwise they will not be able to follow the ideas and are destined to be eliminated!

Peng Yifei: "If possible, I would like to find a way in Germany to create some trouble for the Holy See. If I want to say which country in Europe has the worst relationship with the Holy See, then the Germans must be on the list."

Hearing this, Bao Zixuan immediately understood what his subordinates meant. In 1058, the Holy See took advantage of the young age of the new emperor Henry IV of the Holy Roman Empire to promulgate the Papal Election Law, which stipulated that princes no longer had the power to interfere in the election of popes and cardinals. This move greatly strengthened the autonomy of the Holy Roman See. , the religious power was further expanded; in 1075, Pope Gregory VII issued a papal bull, stipulating that only the pope could appoint bishops, and the pope had the power to depose the emperor, etc., directly placing the religious power above the imperial power.

At that time, Henry IV, the Holy Roman Emperor, did not accept this humiliating clause and still convened a conference of German bishops to appoint and remove bishops. This move completely angered the Pope, so the Pope excommunicated Henry IV and deposed him as emperor. Henry IV was originally preparing to fight back, but as a result, the Duke of Swabia and the Duke of Bavaria supported the Pope in Germany; and they were planning to re-elect an emperor. In view of the internal instability, Henry IV had to compromise with the Pope.

So the emperor took his queen to Canossa, Italy; barefoot and covered with felt, he knelt in the wind and snow for three days and three nights, begging the Pope for forgiveness. It was not until the fourth day that the Pope finally received the emperor and pardoned him. This humiliation suffered by Emperor Henry IV became known as the "Humiliation of Canossa". After this incident, the papal authority reached its peak.

Of course, there's no irony in it if that's how it ends. Henry IV always remembered this humiliation. After stabilizing the Pope, the emperor immediately organized his forces and launched a counterattack. He first gathered strength, defeated the rebellious Duke Rudolf of Swabia, and solved internal problems. and shot Rudolf to death in Saxony.

In 1084, the emperor invaded Italy, occupied Rome, and installed Clement III as pope. Gregory VII fled Rome in panic and died tragically in Salerno in 1085.

As the saying goes, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. The once arrogant and arrogant Pope would never have thought that Henry IV, who had once crouched at his feet like a bereaved dog in Canossa, would eventually bring him a bad end.

Although revenge stories are very inspiring, the Holy See has not disappeared. The tension has become so severe that it is almost impossible to ease it. As a result, the relationship between the Holy See and Germany has always maintained a certain distance for so many years.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and as Peng Yifei said; at this moment, American Freemasonry hopes that both the Holy See and the Black Cloud will lose. If that were the case, they would probably pop the champagne to make it clear.

It is true that the Holy See is an enemy, but in their eyes, the black cloud is no better. Now seeing the fierce fighting between the two sides, I can't wait to provide free ammunition. Of course, if it were a fight between the Holy See and the Freemasons, the richest man Bao would have the same idea.
