The Rise of the European Emperor

Originally in history, Leo X succeeded. He became Pope and restored the Medici family to control of the Florence area. Of course, he was not the only one who restored the rule of the Medici family in Florence, but also his cousin, Pope Clement VII of another Medici family. It was under the efforts of these two Popes of the Medici family to dig the wall, the Florence area that was originally annexed by the Papal State was split off again...

However, after discussing with John Tezel, Giovanni Di Lorenzo de' Medici discovered a serious problem. It seems that all of this needs the support of the Pope! Without the support of Pope Julius II, everything they discussed would be illusory and unrealizable...

But he worried too much, because Marin had already secretly greeted his father-in-law. When Giovanni di Lorenzo de' Medici approached Julius II anxiously for support, Julius II readily agreed to his request.

However, in order not to be scolded in the future, when Julius II wrote the papal encyclical authorizing Giovanni di Lorenzo de' Medici to issue "indulgence notes" in the German region, he It is pointed out that "this was requested by Giovanni Di Lorenzo de' Medici." In this way, even if the Germans scold their mothers in the future, they can't blame themselves.

As for being able to collect money and get credit? Would Julius II care? He is already the pope, and it doesn't matter whether he has credit or not. So what if there is more credit? He has become the most senior pope. Unless you can go to heaven, there is no way to go up. Therefore, for these credits, he might as well sell favors and give them to Giovanni Di Lorenzo de' Medici.

When writing the Pope’s encyclical, Julius II talked to Giovanni di Lorenzo de’ Medici in a “kindly” way, and implicitly pointed out that this was the result of Marin interceding for you .

Then, Giovanni Di Lorenzo de Medici was naturally very grateful to Marin. Giovanni di Lorenzo de' Medici was so excited that he almost jumped up after seeing the statement in the Pope's encyclical that he "voluntarily requested to raise funds for the repair of St. Peter's Basilica".

This may not be of much use to a pope like Julius II. However, for him, a cardinal who aspires to succeed the Pope, this is simply a gift from heaven! As long as he can really get a lot of money from the German region and share it with the cardinals, his reputation in the Holy See will rise sharply... At that time, he will be more sure of taking over as Pope...

Once Julius II died, he, a cardinal who had gained enough prestige in the Holy See, relied on the support of the Bank of Siena and the bankers of the city of Florence, which he co-founded with Marin, to bribe those who had voting rights The cardinal, is the pope elected not a word?

...

After getting Pope Tongyu,

Giovanni Di Lorenzo de' Medici and John Tezel began to get busy, making preparations for going to the German region to collect money.

While arranging for craftsmen to print a large number of "indulgence notes" needed for peddling, he asked people to use the finest velvet to make a huge banner. Then, arrange for women with good embroidery skills to embroider the content of the Pope's visit on the flag, as a ostentation when selling indulgences.

After all, Marin also said at the beginning that when you sell religious things like indulgences, you must dress up sacred enough and have a strong aura. Only in this way can the common people be bluffed, making them willing to pay for the "indulgence note"...

Therefore, in addition to embroidering the banner of the Pope's encyclical, various matching guards of honor, crosses and flags are also needed. In short, the bigger the battle, the better...

In addition, after listening to the religious divine comedy "the mass" "written and composed" by Marin sung by the choir of the Holy See, John Tezel had a whim and asked Giovanni di Lorenzo de Medie Qi equipped his team with a chorus. Every time they go to a city, the chorus will sing "the mass", an explosive religious anthem, when they enter the city, mobilizing the emotions of the people and making them even more fanatical...

Originally, John Tezel planned to directly recruit members of the choir of the Lateran Temple. After all, these people often sing "the mass", and they have already sung extremely proficiently, and they are all absolutely familiar. If you take it to Germany, the performance effect will definitely be good.

However, when Giovanni Di Lorenzo de Medici applied, he was directly rejected by Julius II...

why? Because the members of the Holy See choir are all family members of the top figures in Rome, or they are priests of the Lateran Temple, with a higher rank. They are all people who are either rich or noble, so why go to the German region to suffer with John Tezel, a notorious country church judge? You know, John Tezel's team intends to travel all over Germany, and ordinary people may not be able to endure this hardship. Therefore, the leaders of the Holy See choir must not be happy to go.

In desperation, Giovanni di Lorenzo de' Medici had no choice but to obtain a warrant from Julius II, allowing John Tezel to go to the small church in the countryside of the Papal State to select those young Young junior deacons (the lowest priests) with high singing skills and some low-level nuns formed a choir and went to the German region to support the scene with John Terzel.

These young priests and nuns have no power and power, and facing the warrant issued by the Pope himself, they can only accept the selection unconditionally. Then, follow John Tezel to run errands in Germany. Although it was hard work, because they were all young people, they could bear it.

Moreover, Giovanni Di Lorenzo de' Medici also promised to these selected young monks and nuns through John Terzel that as long as they perform well, they will have the opportunity to be transferred to Rome, the holy place in the future. Urban. If the performance is particularly outstanding, you can also increase the level...

This temptation is not insignificant, just like a teacher in a certain country in the later generations, someone from above said to run with me, and then transferred you to be a teacher in Beiping No. Teacher, I am sure you are happy...

Also, they don't worry about being scammed. After all, now Giovanni Di Lorenzo de Medici has a great reputation in the Holy See. The priests in Italy know that Giovanni Di Lorenzo de Medici is likely to become Pope in the future. Therefore, I am not afraid that he will break his promise... If it were John Tezel himself who made this promise, no one would believe it...

...

In the end, relying on the famous name of Giovanni di Lorenzo de' Medici, John Terzel managed to assemble a choir. Because they were carefully selected and followed a route similar to an audition (the difference is that the tutors come to pick them), the selected choir members have very good singing talents. The only shortcoming is that the tacit understanding of the chorus is not enough. After all, this is a temporary choir, and there is no tacit understanding at all. If you want to sing well, you have to train hard.

Fortunately, these young choir members with no background are very honest and willing to obey the command. As long as you keep training, you will be able to perform well when selling "indulgence coupons"...

As long as the choir's cooperation and training are completed, John Tezel plans to lead the team to set off for the German region to make money. This time, he will return to Germany as a "Special Envoy of the Holy See", so he doesn't have to worry about being made things difficult...
