Chapitre 315: Chapter 236: Turning Point (Requesting Monthly Votes)

Brian asked in confusion:

"You're referring to the Church?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you." Joseph patted his forehead, "You see, I still need your help in this matter."

When Brian heard that archbishops like Beaumont and Dafuer had agreed to use their "private grain" to fill the food shortages in the southern provinces, he was overjoyed:

"How did you convince them?"

In truth, what he wanted to ask was how Joseph knew the priests had hoarded such large amounts of grain?

When he was still in Toulouse, he had also had his subordinate priests do similar things, but after becoming Chief Minister, he disdained such meager profits.

"By establishing the Church Culture Development Company and selling new types of 'Indulgences'." Joseph gave a brief explanation, then instructed, "For now, go draft the orders to recall the officers, we'll discuss the details later."

"Very well, Your Highness."
