Chapter 255 Kill the nobles and divide the land

Protestant believers suddenly emerged like sparks, starting to set off.*Literature Museum*

The Iron Curtain of Faith originally created by the Holy Roman Church in the Titan Empire was torn apart by Chen Xu, and clergy in many areas transformed from humans into vampires - fell into depravity.

And their fall also made the Holy Roman Catholic Church blind in the Titan Empire.

This plane, in this era, still relies on human power to convey information. When all the clergy fell, the Holy Roman Catholic Church was also kept in the dark. They did not know that their tentacles had been cut off, and they thought that the people of the Titan Empire were still believing in their Lord.

Chen Xu broke in with a group of civilians in the noble manor near the Yagge Forest. He told the farmers that there were good things here.

"what you do."

A nobleman seemed to have just returned from outside and suddenly collided with the civilians led by Chen Xu. He screamed: "You humble civilians, stay away from my manor, don't use your humble to trample on the manor."

His voice was sharp, like a duck's voice.

As soon as Chen Xu saw him, he stretched out his hand and grabbed his neck.

"don't want……."

This nobleman wore a gorgeous silk robe, fragrant and meticulously dressed. If, in ordinary times, such a nobleman was a playboy, they would enjoy the fear of other civilians and slaves with envious gazes.

But now, he has no elegance or arrogance, but only a fearful look.

His neck was pinched by Chen Xu, and he was almost unable to breathe and was about to suffocate to death.

"You are cruel and unkind and harming the countryside. The most important thing is your heretic faith, so I will punish you on behalf of the Lord." As soon as Chen Xu finished speaking, flames appeared in his hands.

The flame is white, pure, and sacred, as if it were the flame of the gods, who wanted to purify the world.

The flames quickly emerged towards the nobles and ignited him. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a fire man.

Amid the screams, the nobles turned into ashes, leaving no trace of them.

Originally, the flames would have killed people, and a bunch of residue would be left behind. However, Chen Xu's flames were different. This was the sacred flame that was born by the combination of the fire element by faith.

It is full of sacred and sacred smells, and the temperature is a thread higher than ordinary flames.

"This is the sacred flame, the power of the Lord." Chen Xu turned around and said to the stunned civilians behind him, like a charlatan.

"The Lord said: All who do not believe in me will turn into ashes in the divine flame."

As soon as these words were spoken, the hesitant civilians knelt down, and each buried their heads a lot, and all of them were words praising the Lord. Of course, this Lord was Chen Xu.

They have believed it now because of the miracle that Chen Xu showed. They have to believe it.

"And those who believe in me will be favored."

"The Lord will bless you, believers, to have a better life."

They plan to attack the local tyrants and divide the land.

In that era before Chen Xu traveled through time, the reason why Taizu was able to gain the support of the vast number of farmers was that he fought against the local tyrants and divided the land. Now, what Chen Xu wants to learn is this trick.

However, in the plane of Pirates in the Caribbean, those who own land are not called tyrants, but nobles.

So Chen Xu beat the nobles and divided the land.

"The Lord asked me to give you land. Let you own your own land and live your own life with your own hard work." Chen Xu said.

This plane is actually very similar to the past history of the era before Chen Xu traveled through time. A large amount of land was concentrated in the hands of a small number of people, while a large number of farmers lived by planting these small number of people and obtaining a small part of food. Moreover, this kind of life also depends on the mood of God.

If the climate is good and the yield is high, they will have food to eat; if the climate is bad and the harvest is not high, they will be tragic. They either borrow money to live or leave their hometowns.

In fact, in Europe in this plane, slaves were rampant, and the nobles kept large numbers of slaves and asked slaves to work for themselves, but since the arrival of those angels and spreading faith, this status has changed.

Angels had just arrived, and the first believers were not civilians, nor nobles, but slaves.

The tragic slaves were lured by the beautiful life in the mouth of the angels, and they unswervingly threw themselves into the arms of the Lord and began to rebel.

What they created was not the rebellion of others, but the rebellion of the nobles.

Under such circumstances, the nobles suffered heavy casualties and a large number of slaves were liberated and became ordinary civilians.

However, with the Holy Roman Cathedral formed by the angels reaching an agreement with the royal family at that time, this resistance movement ended, and the impact it brought about affected social changes throughout Europe.

He turned Europe from extensive farming to intensive farming, and farmers also replaced slaves and became a new class of farming for the aristocratic.

Now Chen Xu wants to win over them with his land, just like the slogan he shouted when the peasant uprising in Chinese history, although history has proved that this slogan is just an empty word.

"Of course, the premise is that you are believers of the Lord."

As soon as Chen Xu said, the civilians present immediately widened their eyes.

They looked at each other, not knowing what Chen Xu meant.

In fact, they didn't know what this sentence meant, but they couldn't believe Chen Xu's words. They would rather believe that they had misunderstood Chen Xu's words than believe that Chen Xu would share the land to them.

Just look at the nobles to know how important land is.

In the aristocratic circle, looking at the strength of a nobleman is not about how many titles he has, nor how many servants they have, nor how many pets they have, but how much land he owns.

The more land aristocrats own, the stronger they are.

The royal family, who has the most owners of land, is naturally the greatest noble.

Now, Chen Xu said he wanted to allocate the land to them, which was simply a fantasy. So when they heard this, Chen Xu said the wrong thing and understood the wrong meaning. Anyway, they would not believe that Chen Xu would allocate the land to them.

You should know that when the angels came and the slaves were liberated, the slaves had no land, and all these lands were rewarded by the angels to the clergy, so the clergy had the same title as the nobles.

"I heard it correctly? Do you really want to give us the land?" The peasant who was first found by Chen Xu and accepted the glory of the Lord reacted and looked at Chen Xu with anticipation, speaking very carefully, for fear that he had heard it wrong and understood it wrongly.

"How is that possible."

"Those who have land are all nobles, and it is normal for us to have no land."

"That's, how can we have land?"

Before Chen Xu could answer, the other farmers refuted together. They accused the farmer and thought he was wrong.

For these farmers, it is unimaginable to own a piece of land. As long as they have land, they can turn over and become nobles.

In fact, in the Titan Empire, farmers were civilians, but their status was very low and they were not recognized by other civilians, so farmers were called serfs.

"Of course it is true, the Lord will not lie." Chen Xu said without blushing and his heart is beating: "The Lord's Kingdom of God has not yet come, but as the messenger of the Lord, I will give you the gospel and glory in advance."

"Let you no longer be serfs, but real farmers."

Serfs and farmers seem to be no different on the surface, but in fact they are very different.

This difference is mainly reflected in status. Farming for others and farming for yourself are two different positions. Although in fact, farming for yourself is not necessarily more than getting more food than farming for others. After all, land is limited and it is impossible for everyone to have a large amount of land.

"Of course, you need to believe in the Lord in order to enjoy the glory and gospel of the Lord." Chen Xu said.

"I am willing to believe in the Lord, and I am a believer of the Lord." The farmer who was criticized by other farmers first said, with a very eager look.

"Very good." Chen Xu's spiritual will spread out, found the contract, gave the contract to the farmer, and said with a smile: "From today on, you will no longer be a farmer who appears to be a farmer, but actually a serf."

“You will be a real farmer, a farmer who farms for yourself.”

"Farmer..." The farmer was stunned and his voice couldn't help but choke, "I finally became a real farmer."

"I am no longer a slave with the title of peasant."

As he said, tears fell down.

It is ugly to see a big man crying, and it may even make people despise him, but Chen Xu understands and understands his mood at this moment.

"Don't worry, in the future, you will have more land, and you will truly turn over and become your master." Chen Xu comforted easily. He finally understood why every peasant uprising in the late feudal dynasty would spread like a spark, spreading from just a few thousand people to hundreds of thousands and millions.

One of the reasons here is land.

Farmers’ desire to own land is something that ordinary people cannot understand. When ordinary people work and do small businesses, even if they are fired and the business goes bankrupt, they will have to change places and continue. However, farmers are different. If the farmers’ own land is gone, they are really gone.

"I want it too...I want it too."

After Chen Xu made it clear that he would divide the land, the other farmers were all excited. They rushed to express that they would believe in the Lord and only hoped that Chen Xu could give them land.

"Of course you have to give the land, but you also need to prove your faith and devotion to the Lord." Chen Xu smiled strangely, and before these farmers could ask, he said the method, "As long as you can lead to five people who believe in the Lord, you can get one acre of land."

He is using his interests to tempt these farmers.

This is actually very similar to pyramid schemes, but pyramid schemes are deceiving, but they are not deceiving.
