The pope took a deep look at both of them and continued to speak to himself.
"As for the Knights Hospital and the Teutonic Knights, it is not a problem. The Knights Hospital is in Rome, close to the Vatican, and we maintain a very close relationship.
The Teutonic Knights have now been renamed the German Knights. It has more than 1,000 members and is headquartered in Vienna. They have been under our leadership and have taken orders from the Vatican.
For other mysterious religious organizations like the Priory of Sion Mountain, we can also exert a certain influence and persuade them through various relationships to let them not interfere with this joint exploration operation.
Find the Christian holy relics in the treasures of the Knights Templar, even find the Holy Grail and the Ark of the Covenant, and enshrine them in the Vatican, so that all believers can pay their respects and worship. They have no reason to object.
The religious extremists you are talking about are just some fanatical believers. With the Vatican coming forward to dominate this exploratory operation, they should not pose any threat.
Besides, just how powerful you have shown in previous treasure hunts and the tough methods you have used against your opponents, how can you be afraid of some mysterious religious organizations and extremists.
Even if these mysterious religious organizations and religious extremists of the Priory of Yunshan want to obstruct exploration, or covet those sacred objects, and find that their opponent is you, they will be afraid of them.
Our Swiss Guard in the Vatican is not a display. For the holy artifacts in the treasures of the Knights Templar, anyone who dares to disrupt this joint exploration operation will be our enemy! "
The voice fell, everyone at the scene looked at Ye Tian, looking forward to his response.
"Of course buddies are not afraid of the mysterious religious organizations and religious extremists of the Priory of Sion, but this does not prevent buddies from using this as an excuse to negotiate terms and requirements with you!"
Ye Tian murmured a few words secretly, then pretended to think and fell silent.
Ye Tian was quite satisfied with the Pope's explanation just now and these coping strategies.
Obviously, the Pope and Kent came prepared, they had made full preparations before, and almost everything was considered, which can be described as very meticulous!
After a moment of silence, Ye Tian smiled and said
"His Majesty, I have to say that you are very considerate and your coping strategies are also very reasonable. It seems that these concerns of mine are no longer a problem. Of course this is better!
But I have another question. As you all know, we have just returned from Europe and brought back a large number of top antique artworks and countless gold and silver treasures from Europe.
Some people even joked that we ransacked the whole of Europe and looted the wealth that originally belonged to European countries and Europeans. Of course, I do not admit this statement. This is obviously slander!
Every treasure we explored in Europe, every piece of antique art and gold and silver treasures we obtained was obtained through legal methods and channels, and it must not be called looting!
But it is undeniable that many Europeans cannot see this and hate us deeply, including many European countries. They also maintain a high degree of vigilance towards my exploration company!
Once we enter Europe again, I am afraid that everyone will immediately think of what treasure we came from. According to my estimation, most European countries do not welcome me.
If what is expected is correct, the possible burial location of the Knights Templar treasure must be in Europe, especially in Western European countries. It is not easy to explore in these countries! "
Hearing his words, a smile appeared on everyone's faces in the room.
Do not admit that the whole of Europe was looted? Is this useful? You guys ransacked all European countries and North Africa. This is a fact everyone knows!
Don’t the top antique artworks in Napoleon’s treasure come from various European countries? The treasure Napoleon finally snatched from various European countries finally got you a greedy fellow for nothing!
The freighter on the bottom of the English Channel is full of Nacui gold and antique art that Rommel looted from North Africa, and every piece is stained with blood!
These are all irrefutable evidence, you don't admit that there is a uselessness!
For you guy, don't Europeans hate you now? Who doesn't want to beat you asshole!
After making a secret complaint, Kent was ready to speak to resolve Ye Tian's concern.
However, Ye Tian took the lead and continued smiling
"There is one more practical question. If we accept the commission to explore the treasure and successfully find the treasure of the Knights Templar, how should we distribute the wealth in the treasure?
We are a treasure hunting company, and this is our business. Before the exploration starts, these things must be explained in advance and reflected in the contract, so as not to be arrogant! "
Hearing what he said, everyone at the scene couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then they woke up!
as predicted!
This is still the famously greedy guy, unchanged, exactly the same as in the legend!
After all these words and words, the topic finally returned to how to distribute the treasures of the Knights Templar. Fortune is the ultimate goal of Steven.
After adjusting his emotions a bit, Kent continued to say
"Steven, we have already thought about the situations you might encounter in Europe after the exploratory operation started. You are right. European countries will definitely be on high alert for your company!
But it’s okay. Once we sign a joint exploration agreement, the Vatican will be responsible for clarifying the relationship between relevant European countries. It should be no problem to get the exploration permit in the relevant country.
Of course, we must pay a certain price for this. The specific price depends on the requirements of the relevant countries. This is something for the time being, and we can ignore it for the time being.
Let’s talk about the problem that your fellow cares about most, which is the distribution of treasures. We at the Vatican are dedicated to those Christian holy relics. This is also the purpose of our exploration of the treasures of the Knights Templar.
As for the secular properties in the treasures of the Knights Templar, no matter how much they are, they can be used as your reward. Those secular properties are all from the Middle Ages and even have a longer history.
Moreover, they have a very close relationship with the legendary and famous Knights Templar. In the past seven hundred years, they have been hidden with many Christian holy relics, and their significance is very special.
In the field of your antique art collections, all those mundane assets can be regarded as valuable antique art, and there are many valuable and top antique art! "
Having said that, the President of the United States who had been sitting quietly next to him suddenly interjected
"Steven, if your company accepts the Vatican's entrustment and successfully finds the treasure of the Knights Templar, I very much hope that you can bring the secular properties in the treasure back to the United States.
The bishop of Kent is right. Those mundane assets are valuable antique works of art, and they are of special significance. Many museums and top collectors in the United States must be very interested in it! "
Hearing this, Ye Tian did not immediately respond, but just nodded at the President of the United States with a smile on his face, making it impossible to understand his true thoughts.
The Bishop of Kent gave him a deep look, then went on
"Of course, it is also possible. The treasures of the Knights Templar have a false name, and everything is rumored. It is a gimmick created by some people in history and blinded everyone.
Or, there are very few Christian holy relics and secular properties in the treasure. Let us have a good time. It does not matter. We are willing to bear the loss and give you some compensation!
One more thing, if after this exploratory operation is over, you can successfully find those legendary Christian holy relics, we can promise that the Pope will personally make you a knight! "
Before the words fell, the President of the United States and David exclaimed in low voices.
"Oh my god! To be a knight, this is really too big!"
"Wow! Doesn't that mean that as long as you find those legendary Christian holy relics, Steven will immediately become a nobleman, and more importantly, this knight is still canonized by the pope himself, which is of special significance!"
While exclaiming, the envious eyes of the President of the United States and David were red, and they wished to replace Ye Tian!
This is a real noble status, and it is canonized by the Pope.
In the entire Western world, especially in the United States this is the identity and glory that many people dream of! But I couldn't ask for it!
Before the exclamation fell, Ye Tianqinglang's voice had been heard again.
"Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty, if we sign a commission agreement, we can successfully find the treasures of the Knights Templar and find the legendary Christian holy relics. Naturally, it would be better!
If I want to be a knight, I hope that the person to be named is Betty, not me. Betty is a Christian. She is obviously more suitable to accept this title, but I am an atheist.
Let’s talk about the conditions that you set out. You took away the Christian holy objects in the treasure. I took away all the secular properties. Obviously it was very unfair. This condition is far from my expectations...."
Several people from the Vatican, as well as the President of the United States, were immediately silly when they heard this.
Is this condition not met? The appetite is too big! No wonder some people say that Steven is an extremely greedy bastard, and he really deserves his reputation!
Almost an hour has passed, and the people in the banquet hall are chatting and chatting, tasting wine, while paying attention to the door in front!
Without exception, everyone is secretly guessing that the Pope, the President of the United States, and the guy Steven, what they are talking about, it took so long!
Just when everyone was wildly suspicious, the door of the room suddenly opened.
Immediately afterwards, the Bishop of Kent took Ye Tian and David out of it and returned to the banquet hall.
After a few more seconds, His Majesty and the President of the United States also walked out of the room one after another.
When they returned to the banquet hall, their faces were full of smiles. Obviously, the secret talks had achieved good results!
But what exactly this result is, no one knows!
