The Rise of the European Emperor

San Ge still has a lot of good things, not only zebu, but also pepper, but it has been popular in Europe for thousands of years, and it has become a luxury since the Roman Empire.

Of course, Marin doesn't like pepper. In his eyes, pepper is just an ordinary seasoning. The only things that can catch his eyes are Mawarima, Wootz Steel and other strategically significant things. At the same time, there are saltpeter in India and so on.

But Marin is already developing Chilean saltpeter, and will soon be able to buy saltpeter from the Ming Dynasty, but Indian saltpeter is not important. However, Marwarima and Uzi steel are also good things.

Needless to say, Utz steel is a good thing for making Damascus scimitars, and it is an absolute strategic material. When Napoleon captured Egypt, the soldiers frantically snatched the Damascus scimitar worn by the officers of the Egyptian army after winning the battle, which shows its preciousness. After all, this group of people didn't even grab gold and silver. They grabbed the Damascus scimitar first. It must be because the scimitar is more expensive than gold. Of course, in addition to the high quality of the knife, there are also reasons why the knife is decorated with jewelry.

The Mawari horse is also one of the few excellent war horses adapted to the tropical climate, and it is also the mount of the Mamluk elite cavalry. The Mamluk dynasty of Egypt, which controlled some of the Arabian horse production areas, actually used the Indian Mawari horse as the mount of the cavalry of the Imperial Army. It can be seen that the Mawari horse is not necessarily inferior to the Arabian horse. At least, definitely not bad for military use. Moreover, it is also very suitable for tropical climates, which is very precious.

Therefore, Marin needs to buy these good things in large quantities. Later, in the tropical colony of Marin, the serfs drove the zebu to plow the land, while the warriors rode horses to fight...

However, that is for the future. Marin plans to transform dozens of ships specially used to transport livestock, and go to India to buy large quantities of zebu and Mawarima, as well as Uzi steel used to make precious knives.

But for now, what Marin wants to do is to rush to the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible to satisfy his curiosity...

...

As a Chinese soul, it is absolutely false to say that you are not curious about ancient China. It’s fine if you can’t see it in modern times, but now that you’ve traveled through time, how can you not take a look?

As for going to see the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he kowtowed and bowed nine times, Marin didn't mind. He is not the second-year-old protagonist with the halo of the protagonist in Xiuxian's novels. He doesn't need any "heart of the strong", and he doesn't care about "a man has gold under his knees".

Marin believes that those who believe in "a man has gold under his knees" are indeed real men, which is admirable. However, most of such people often die on the way to success because of their straightforward personality. Because, when you have no strength, it is not a good thing to still have such strong self-esteem. This is the so-called "just passing through". If you die prematurely on the road to success, how can you talk about success? Only the protagonist in the novel, the son of the plane, can keep his dignity and his life.

For example, King Goujian of Yue, if he hadn't been counseled in the early stage, he would have been killed by Wu Guo long ago, so where is there any chance of a comeback later? Liu Bang's parents were caught by Xiang Yu, so they could only be shameless on purpose, otherwise they would be over.

The last thing a real emperor wants is face. Grass grows on the graves of shameless emperors, such as Chongzhen... Of course, you can only be shameless when you meet someone stronger than you. When you meet someone who is weaker than you, dare not show face and kill them decisively... Especially civilians, if you dare not show face, kill the whole family if you say you want to kill them...

...

Moreover, Marin didn't think it was wrong to kowtow and worship the emperor of the Ming Dynasty three times and nine times. After all, Marin is the soul hundreds of years later, and kowtowing to these ancients is regarded as worshiping the ancestors.

Besides, don't those star actors of later generations kneel when they say they kneel or cry when they say they cry? It's just like acting in a costume drama. Moreover, Marin can get huge benefits from the Ming Dynasty. There is nothing wrong with bending for the benefit. In later generations, many sales women, such as house sellers, even slept with customers in order to get the list. For the sake of profit, people will always do whatever it takes.

As for the heart of the strong in fairy tales and fantasy novels? I'm sorry, Marin doesn't know fairy art, and has no hope of becoming an immortal emperor.

Naturally, there is no need for that thing...

What's more, cultivating immortals is just nonsense. As for the heart of the strong, it's even more nonsense. Didn’t you see the writers of web articles who made up these concepts such as “the heart of the strong” and knelt there every day begging for monthly tickets? The writers of web articles are the most shameless, they themselves beg every day, shameless and skinless, can you believe their nonsense about the "heart of the strong"? In his previous life, Marin had seen an author called "Taishang Laoniu", because he couldn't hold back his face and begged less frequently, so the tickets and subscriptions were not ideal, and he almost starved to death...

...

However, thinking that Zhu Houzhao is only 18 years old this year, and he is 30 years old, it is really shameless to kneel down to him...

"Whatever, I'll just act in a costume drama. Well, I'm an actor..." Recalling the experience of running around Hengdian with friends for a while in his previous life for fun, Marin hypnotized himself...

...

After leaving Grenada, Marin's ship went all the way west, and soon came to Colon Bay, Panama. Then, Marin and his crew all abandoned the ship and landed, mounted their horses, and rushed to Panama City on the other side of the Isthmus of Panama. Moreover, with the team, there are hundreds of solar cookers, as well as slaves and camels bought in Egypt.

Along the way, the guide who led the team told Marin that the pyrethrum and wormwood planted on both sides of the road were very lethal to mosquitoes. Since these two plants were planted, the poisonous mosquitoes and insects in Panama dare not approach the road. When Golard and his troops first came to Panama, many people were killed by these poisonous mosquitoes and insects.

...

After arriving in Panama City, Marin found that the previous 10 warships had arrived for a while and were waiting for him. And Gallard, the governor of Panama, and the bald Aben also warmly welcomed Marin's arrival.

However, there is a problem before Marin, that is - there seem to be two governors in Panama...

Before that, Marin first sent Gaurad to Colon Bay, Panama, and began to build a road across the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean, and also appointed him as the governor.

But later, Marin arranged for the bald Aben to lead a fleet around Tierra del Fuego and head to Panama City to build Panama City. At the same time, Aben was also appointed governor.

When the road was opened, an embarrassing thing happened - two governors appeared in the Panama area...

For example, this time, when welcoming Marin, Gaurad and Bald Aben stood side by side to welcome Marin. Moreover, the expressions of both of them seemed a little embarrassed... After all, Marin did not stipulate who has a high position and who has a low position. Therefore, the two can only stand side by side.

But this is not acceptable. After all, one mountain cannot have two tigers, and one country cannot have two masters. Therefore, after the welcome banquet was over, Marin still ordered-let Aben go south with a few ships to Santa Maria Island off the coast of Chile to serve as the governor of Chile.

It just so happened that Marin planned to develop the Chilean saltpeter mine. However, after development, the demand for fresh water is large, and food supply is also needed. Therefore, Marin asked Aben to lead a group of reliable sailors to establish a foothold on Santa Maria Island, and then plot to occupy the estuary area on the land a little north, build a cement city, and control and develop the surrounding area as a supply chain for the northern desert. A base for fresh water and food.

Along with Aben, there were also a group of reliable sailors transferred from the mainland, a group of solar cookers for distilling and desalinating seawater, and a group of Egyptian slaves and Egyptian camels bought. They went to Iquique to establish a base, and needed to investigate and develop the saltpeter in the northern desert of Chile...

After arranging these, Marin began to prepare for departure. Before departure, Marin ordered to move sweet potatoes, peanuts and peppers to the boat. These things are all agricultural products that have been widely grown in the local area. Marin intends to replenish them nearby, and just brought them to the Ming Dynasty to dedicate them to the Ming court in exchange for trade qualifications.

But when moving the sweet potatoes, Gaurad also ordered a lot of seeds to be carried on board. Marin had no impression of this seed, so he asked:

"What is this?"

"Sweet potato seeds!" Golard said strangely.

"What? Sweet potatoes also have seeds?" As a rural child in his previous life, Marin felt that his brain was not enough. Because, in the previous life, it seemed that their family planted sweet potatoes with germinated sweet potatoes and cut them into pieces. They never used any sweet potato seeds...
