To Four Thousand Years Later

v4 Chapter 159: last pope

In fact, Leonardo did not want to become Pope.

He could be, but he doesn't have to.

Hector III was originally a **** under his complete control. Although Leonardo didn't value him very much, he knew Leonardo's true identity. Therefore, whether it is to implement policies or in essence, Hector III is equivalent to the governor he sent in the past. The real ruler of this country was originally Leonardo. That's enough.

Moreover, Leonardo can also guess that his own appointment as Pope will definitely be recognized by the public and supported by many countries.

Although their original plan to control the small country through the Pope was shattered, it was better for them that Leonardo became Pope. Because this means that Leonardo's money power from now on. Will start to be constrained by politics. A powerful multinational corporation with a global presence is actually more difficult to deal with than a small rich country with extremely poor military capabilities. Friends push the enemy side to one another, and the losses brought about are huge.

But if Leonardo had to anchor himself somewhere, that would be a different story.

If what he got was a powerful country, then something bad would happen. Because this means that the powerful military and political system will be combined with Leonardo's commercial and financial capabilities. Of course, the blood that Leonardo holds and this infusion cannot be born in vain. The wealth he obtained was also drawn from other countries. Originally, these wealth would be immediately invested back to the local area, creating a large number of jobs and providing infrastructure. Because it will make him get more wealth.

But if he becomes king, then he will definitely not help other countries continue to develop for free. So if Leonardo gathers these wealth and supports it to a powerful country, it will inevitably cause a worldwide imbalance.

The company that originally provided jobs and cheap and high-quality clothing, food, housing and transportation will turn its face overnight and become a beast that devours people; it will become a blood transfusion pipeline. Continuously pump out the golden blood and infuse it to himself.

But if he becomes the pope, it will be a situation that the countries would like to see. This pig teammate Leonardo is not only unable to move, but will even be dragged down in reverse. The invisible water of capital will be suspected to be tangible ice, and his status will change from the sole holder of the aloof crotch group to the extremely low status ruler of a weak country without an army. The most terrible thing is that this small country is very rich.

Then this is actually turning yourself into a piece of fat, adding another reason for others to target him, and giving yourself an extra loophole. Even the ceremonial teams from other countries don't know why Leonardo chose such a person. But these spirits are always gloating.

"This is my responsibility, Your Majesty. I didn't know that the problem would be so serious. The former Pope, Deputy Secretary-General Hector, whispered to Leonardo with some embarrassment: "Actually, I just don't want the authority of the Church to fall on the in the hands of others. "

"I can understand, you don't need to say any more. Leonardo II slowly took off the triple crown in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror. He hugged it on his chest and said peacefully: "Since I have already said "sure, let's not take it as an example." ’, I wouldn’t hold you accountable for your fault this time.” But I didn’t understand what you meant that time, if I had known.” It seems that you are indeed not suitable to be Pope, Hector. Pope Leonardo interrupted Hector In response to Keto's words, he looked back at him indifferently: "This position is quite suitable for you now, please clarify.

"You think too little and hesitate too much. You are not worthy to be king.

"Then, if you fail due to lack of ability, I have no right to criticize you. Because this is not your responsibility, but my negligence."

This is the point of view that Leonardo has always held when he was a product manager.

It should not happen to give the other party a task that cannot be completed, and then wait for the failure to criticize the other party's failure. To omit the steps of cultivating Xiazhan's ability, and hope that Xiazhan can temporarily break through the limit at work and forcefully complete tasks that he cannot complete. Cultivating the skills of the subordinates, distinguishing the abilities of the subordinates, and assigning the work of the subordinates, this is originally Leonardo's leadership function.

"Except for you. My own ability is not enough."

Leonardo said calmly: "I made a wrong estimate of your ability, so I didn't train you. I even had the idea of ​​using you as a bait to attract my enemies. Therefore, the responsibility for your failure also belongs to me. a part of.

"His Majesty the Pope

Hector murmured. But this forgiveness is not because of Leonardo's kindness and compassion, but because of his reason and calm demeanor. This moved him but also made him ashamed.

"Look straight into your heart, Hector, and you'll either lose your conscience or just pretend it doesn't exist.

"—You have to look directly at your own guilt. You have to look at it and defeat it. Don't wallow in guilt and blame yourself until it engulfs your sanity; and don't keep running until your Conscience is stronger than steel, until you forget the guilt of the past. It's just the Church, he is not something special, nor should it be a special existence. Leonardo said flatly: "God is dead, I guess All religions should be like this. Let me just say that there will be no new pope in the world after Hector and me.

"The immortal creation I once brought has completed its historical mission. Now, it's time for me to put an end to it myself. Looking at Hector's thoughtful face, he Slightly nodded, and issued an order to evict the guest: "Go out, Hector should have someone come to me in a while, your current status is not suitable for obeying orders, Your Majesty. "

Hector was silent for a while, took a deep breath and responded softly.

It's just that his tone is no longer so decadent, as if new power has been injected into him. And his name changed from green to blue at this time.

At this moment, a light curtain finally flashed before Leonardo's eyes: [The main mission has been updated]

[Main quest dry face dry hands: become and maintain the number one in the world in more than ten fields (10/10); spread Ruo your deeds in more than ten large countries (10/1); use any non-repetitive The method of eradicating ten public figures who opposed you (5/10)]
