Randolph immediately stood up and asked, "What on earth do you want to do!"

Claire reached out and patted away the other person's finger pointing at his chest, sat down calmly, and asked with a calm face, "Bishop Randolph has such a big temper? What are you asking about?"

Seeing such a calm Claire, Randolph calmed down instantly as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head.

Randolph's tone became calmer, "I'm talking about building a park."

"Isn't this a good thing? There is a lack of greenery in Nafu City. This should have been done a long time ago. Does Bishop Randolph also want to do its part?"

Randolph took a deep look at this young man whose reaction was not consistent with his age. He took a deep breath and found that he was now in a state of confusion.

"I mean, the church you're going to rebuild there?"

"North District, there are a lot of open spaces there. I will definitely build a particularly brilliant church for Bishop Randolph!"

"North District?" Randolph repeated, "The North District is a place where only blacksmiths and workers live!"

Randolph's tone was already very dissatisfied. There was no one in the North District at all! When those workers and blacksmiths were there, they could only work and had no time to go to the church to pray. Moreover, it was the farthest away from the South District where there were the most people. It was extremely inconvenient whether you were preaching or the residents of the South District came to pray.

"Don't the gods of the church protect workers and blacksmiths?" Claire asked deliberately.

Randolph also knew that what he just said was a mistake, so he changed his words and said, "Of course not. God loves the world, whether those who believe in Him or those who slander Him. The Lord is selfless and has great love. He will not not protect people because of their profession."

"Is that so?" Claire asked, holding his chin.

"Of course."

"If God loves all people, then why should we believe in Him? Anyway, He will love us whether we believe in Him or not."

Randolph's pupils shrank and he looked at Claire. He didn't expect that the other party would ask such a question, but also, this kind of question was nothing to him.

"Because we must be grateful, God loves us, so we must love Him too! And if we do not believe in God, we will not be able to enter Divine Kingdom after death, so our God's missionaries must tell the world God's teachings so that they can enter Divine Kingdom after death. E, you don't have to endure this kind of suffering in the world anymore, that's why we have to preach!" Randolph's words seemed to be warning Claire to stop going against him.

However, Claire seemed not to have heard it, and still dragged his chin and asked, "Aren't your words contradictory? You said that God loves the world, but you also said that those who don't believe in Him cannot enter Divine Kingdom."

This kind of problem is obviously not difficult for Randolph who is studying in Holy See. He opened his mouth and said, "This is because we..."

As soon as I opened my mouth Randolph, I felt something was wrong. It seemed that I was being led by the other party. The purpose of coming here was not to argue with the other party!

"We will discuss this later. If you build the church in the North District, Lord Viscount, I will not agree to it!" Randolph said firmly.

Claire also took back the hand holding his chin, looked into Randolph's eyes and asked, "Then where do you want to build?"

"Southern District!" Randolph rapped his knuckles on the table, making a thumping sound.

"You also know that's impossible." Claire's tone was calm, and no fluctuation could be heard.

"Why is it impossible? Our church is in the South District!"

"There are so many buildings in the southern district that it's hard to tell them apart." Claire said calmly.

"Then how can you find an extra piece of land to build a park?" Randolph mocked.

Claire A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Then go and tell the demolition residents yourself. If they agree, I will stop the work immediately."

Randolph was speechless for a moment, and then he realized why Claire wanted to move all the residents out of that area and turn it into a park. Claire has tied those residents to him with their interests, demolished them, and given them new houses and thirty Gold Coins. And now if you dare to refuse, Randolph guarantees that Claire will definitely agree and then spread the news. It's not that I don't want to, it's that this new bishop doesn't want you to demolish, so you can only go back to the original place.

After this ups and downs, there will definitely be resentment in the hearts of those residents, and Claire has set a target, and everyone's resentment will be vented on Randolph. Although they will not say anything in front of him due to his identity, they will definitely feel disgusted with the church secretly. If it spreads a little, it will have a great impact on the church's reputation.

Randolph looked at the calm young man in front of him and thought to himself: What a cunning person! Have you already expected this situation?

Then he stood up suddenly, slammed the table, and shouted loudly, "I don't care about that! At worst, we will make a big fuss about yesterday's matter! Anyway, it's my side that's in charge! Don't think that the mage can use the excuse of conducting experiments to do things without scruples! This matter It won't be good for anyone if things get serious. Do you think those mages are really willing to help you? They just want to find an excuse to disgust us! After the storm is over, don't think you can still protect that Isaac!"

The two stared at each other like this for more than ten seconds, but Randolph still refused to let go. The church was his base, and even the base was gone, so why should he continue to fight with Claire.

The towers are all gone, so why fight? Just surrender.

Claire said, "Yes, let's go to the East District. The bustling commercial street is the head office. In some aspects, it is much better than the South District."

Seeing that Claire relaxed, Randolph's expression softened slightly, "Okay, just as the Viscount said, East District."

Claire stood up, "It's dinner time, Bishop Randolph wouldn't you want to eat here?"

Hearing the meaning of driving away people in Claire's words, Randolph felt very happy in his heart. It's rare that he could be better than the other party. I would be so angry with you!

"No need, I'll go back and eat with my companions." Randolph patted his butt and prepared to leave.

"Oh?" Claire suddenly raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Where will the bishop rest after eating?"

Randolph's movements stagnated, and he slowly turned his head to look at Claire, wanting to know the meaning of his words.

Claire satisfied the other party's thirst for knowledge. "I have rented the entire Nafu City hotel to accommodate those families who have no place to go due to demolition. I'm afraid Bishop Randolph won't be able to find a hotel to rest in."

Claire paused and continued, "How about? Bishop Randolph Let's go back to the royal capital. The conditions there are much better than in our small city."

Randolph's movements stagnated again, but he still stiffened his neck and said, "There's no need to worry about it, Lord Viscount! We have our own way!" There was no way he would bow to Claire.

"Then go slowly, I won't send you off!" Claire sat back on the sofa and shook his right hand.

After Randolph walked out of the Baronial Manor, Claire couldn't help but turn up the corners of his mouth as he looked at his shrinking back.

Bishop Randolph Ah, you don't really think that you fought for the construction sites in the Eastern District, do you?

So what, I still owe you four chapters, I'll remember it, don't worry!
