TEMPLAR WEALTH As mentioned before, many devout Christians left their estates to the Templars in their wills. In every country in the West, from Denmark to Ireland, from Spain to France, local Templar organi- sations over the years accumulated wealth. Their skill at arms made them the natural traders of the day and their honesty made them trusted bankers. A merchant in England might ask the Templars to transfer a certain amount in gold to Paris to cover a business deal. A Templar courier would take a ‘gold deposit receipt’ to the Paris temple, This piece of paper allowed the merchant's Paris business contact to collect the agreed upon amount of gold. Sometimes he did collect—sometimes he only collected the paper 'gold deposit receipt'—which was as good as gold. He could use this paper receipt as paper money if he chose. Merchants anywhere would accept it. Any settling up by actual transfer of gold between the London and Paris Templar temples could be done at a later date. Interest-free loans were made to kings and merchants, and trade was largely in their hands. The Templars were the wealthiest organisation in existence in every country. This wealth was the reason for the Templars’ downfall. The Jews became the king's valued unofficial tax collectors. As fast as their usury brought a debtor into bankruptcy, the king got his share. Other conditions found their way into the relationship between the king and the Jews. Whenever a Jew was converted or died, his estate escheated to the king. The Jews could only live in the town which contained an Archa’, an office in which every transac- tion with the Christians was recorded by government agents to make sure the king got his cut. In practice this worked the same way as it had in every other country. Ten pounds lent at 20% would require repayment of 20 pounds in a little more than four veare years. 10 14.4 17,28 20.74 pounds borrowed owed at end of Ist year at 20% owed at end of 2nd year owed at end of 3rd year owed at end of 4th year If the loan were due in ‘tallies’, there was some slight chance that it would be paid. If it were due in gold or silver, there was virtually no chance that the loan would be paid since almost all gold and silver had vanished from England. The debtor lost all. The king chuckled with glee as he got half. The debtor's choice was then to rot in debtors’ prison or put himself into indentured The people of France forced their king to expel the Jews in 1306, just 16 years after they had been expelled from England.
