Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 16
Although he did not promise to give money, Sun Shiwan was still very satisfied with this trip.He said that since the worship has been completed, it is necessary to pay some tribute to the gods.

To burn incense in an ordinary temple, you still have to give some gifts to the gods and Buddhas, not to mention that this is the largest temple in the Roman world, and the specifications should be higher.

And Brother Tian, ​​for his visit, was hung up again, shirtless and wearing a big turban, so he specially demonstrated it for him.This is not paid, it is really unreasonable.

Seeing that Sun Shiwan was about to pay, Wu Han took out something like a ledger and handed it to him.

This thing was also the idea that Guo Kang gave them at the beginning.All important people who have visited the temple are invited to leave a message here.At present, there are signatures of important figures such as Shaharu himself, the French crown prince, and Grand Duke Vladimir.

In addition, the temple also accepts orders for the production of religious paintings, and can help them customize the scenes they need.Whether standing among the saints, listening to the teachings of the heavenly brothers, or hanging shoulders with the saints, or even cutting a dragon with St. George, it can be drawn for you.

Two copies of these works will be made, one for visitors and one for hanging in the temple.So, with a few big names at the head of the show, the rest of the visitors were proud to join them.Aristocrats, big and small, from east, west, north, south, donated money to the temple in a hurry, hoping to get a chance.

Sun Shiwan didn't really care about those few people, but as he said, displaying it in the temple is actually an advertising effect, not just religious feelings and clinging to the powerful.

He picked up the ledger and thought about it while preparing his pen and ink.Afterwards, the booklet was opened, and the words "Sun Wenyuan came here for a visit" were left flying on the page.

As for the portrait, he also ordered one.Wu Han asked him which god and what scene he needed.Sun Shiwan said that he does not understand religion, but he still has some money, so it is enough to draw all the main gods in the temple.

Finally, he ordered his followers to take out the treasure.

The entourage took out a beautifully decorated box, Sun Shiwan took it and opened it.Inside the box were three huge pearls and several gemstones of various colors, inlaid on a base made of gold and silver.

"These three are top-grade north beads purchased by Mr. Sun from a businessman in Zhengdong Province. In order to come here to worship, they are specially customized according to the teachings of worshiping God in your country." He introduced: "The three north beads , representing the three treasures in the teaching. Putting them on the same base means the Trinity."

"Other gold, silver, agate, amber, etc., are like the seven treasures of Buddhism, to show that there is no partiality in worshiping the gods." He said, put the box on the altar, and bowed again.

Wu Han has not yet completed the training, and is not yet proficient in jewelry appraisal. He cannot, like a senior priest, see at a glance how much the things offered by believers are worth, so as to arrange reception specifications.However, the luxury of this thing has reached the level where you can tell that it is very valuable at a glance.

This kind of gift is not something that Wu Han can arrange to receive on his own.He immediately said that the tribute was too expensive, so he had to invite Master Wang to arrange the ceremony himself.

Not long after, the Great Patriarch King Da Lama hurried over with his whisk in his hand.

When he saw the jewelry, he was taken aback for a moment, then he pulled Sun Shiwan aside and chatted with him in a low voice for a while.In the end, the two bid farewell to each other, and Sun Shiwan swaggered away from the main gate with his entourage.

"Hey? Master Wang, didn't you say that we are going to find him and ask him to teach us how to cheat tribute?" Wu Han asked suspiciously.

"I'm lying to you." Da Lama Wang said angrily, "How can it be called cheating Gong? Can the matter of the Romans be called cheating?"

"Then..." Wu Han couldn't react for a while.

"Don't worry about these things. It's okay to be two days late for the letter of credence." Lama Wang shook his head again and again: "We need to have a meeting now to sort out our thoughts."
