The Rise of the European Emperor

This black surface is covered with a layer of hoarfrost, which is obviously the dried kelp that is often found in the vegetable market in later generations. It seems that the origin of this thing is Japan...

"Ma Jun has good eyesight. This is kelp, and it is also a kind of seaweed that we and our people often eat. It grows in the sea, and some fishermen even began to breed this kind of thing. I heard that the envoys sent by Kyoto to the Ming Dynasty will also bring Shanghai belt as a tribute."

In fact, unlike Gan Fushuizi, Marin also knew the source of kelp. This stuff, native to the waters of Japan and North Korea, is a delicious and very nutritious and healthy food, rich in iodine, alginate, mannitol and other beneficial elements for the human body. The most wonderful thing is that kelp cultivation does not require land, only the sea, and does not take up space. It is said that later generations of kelp can harvest seven to eight thousand catties of kelp per mu of water surface, and the growth period is about six to seven months.

Of course, that is the technology of later generations. Marin's later generations are not coastal people, and they don't know how to breed kelp. They only know that kelp is raised on floating rafts or floating balls. Japanese fishermen these days should understand, but the yield per mu is definitely not as exaggerated as in later generations. But in any case, there should be one or two thousand catties per mu. Moreover, there are plenty of places in the ocean, and we are not afraid that there will be no place to breed them.

Moreover, Marin actually doesn't like eating kelp very much, but only likes one way of eating kelp-waxmelon kelp soup. This soup is delicious and healthy. Marin has purchased a lot of wax gourd seeds from Daming, but there is no kelp. Coincidentally, this time I can bring some kelp back from Japan.

In fact, the reason why Marin attaches great importance to kelp is because he knows that the earliest monosodium glutamate is extracted from kelp. And this is why Marin attaches great importance to kelp.

In later generations, monosodium glutamate is just a common seasoning, and because monosodium glutamate is easy to change into harmful substances after overheating, it is considered unhealthy by later generations.

However, when the predecessor of MSG, "Ajinomoto", first appeared, it shocked the world and brought huge profits to the ghosts who first discovered MSG. At that time, people who bought Ajinomoto smashed the door of the store.

Of course, it is not economical to extract monosodium glutamate from kelp, because only 0.2 grams of monosodium glutamate can be extracted from 10 kg of kelp. That is to say, only 20 grams of monosodium glutamate can be extracted from one ton of kelp.

But the problem is that Marin only knows that monosodium glutamate can also be extracted from food by using pickling method and biological fermentation method, but he doesn't know these two methods...

Therefore, Marin can only use the stupid method of extracting monosodium glutamate from kelp first. Big deal, let the fishermen raise more kelp, and you can get more monosodium glutamate.

Besides, without mentioning the extraction of MSG, kelp itself is very delicious, and it is a healthy food...

Therefore, Marin made up his mind - he must bring the kelp back to the North Sea country for cultivation, making the kelp an important food in the North Sea country.

Also healthy food...

...

Therefore, Marin decided to suspend the return journey, ransack fishing villages in the coastal areas of Japan, and specifically snatch kelp seedlings and fishermen who can raise kelp...

For this reason, Marin's fleet began to sail along the coast of Japan. And Marin ordered a group of good-sighted men to keep using binoculars to observe the passing fishing villages——Marin's fleet would stop and rob any fishing villages with kelp farming rafts on the sea. Of course, it's not about stealing money, but about robbing kelp seedlings and fishermen who know how to raise kelp...

...

In this way, when it was near Tokyo Bay in later generations, Marin's fleet had looted dozens of villages along the coast and captured 100 fishermen who were good at farming kelp.

Moreover, in a small coastal town, Marin also sent someone to capture a blacksmith who was good at making Japanese swords, so that he could take them back to help him make Japanese swords. After all, the Japanese sword is also a good weapon, and it can also be regarded as a handicraft.

In later generations of Tokyo Bay, outside the current Edo City, after Marin looted several nearby small fishing villages, he simply stopped on Tokyo Bay to rest for a few days.

At this time, Tokyo was still called Edo Castle, and it was controlled by the Uesugi clan of the Musashi Kingdom. Moreover, Edo Castle is not the center of the shogunate at this time, but just a small seaside town.

Therefore, although Uesugi Chaoliang, the governor of Ogiya Uesugi's family in Edo Castle, was angry about Marin's bad behavior of looting everywhere in Tokyo Bay, he was helpless.

why? Because although Uesugi Chaoliang has thousands of soldiers and horses, he is a powerful daimyo. But those are infantry. Facing Marin who is playing rough in the sea, Uesugi Chaoliang has nothing to do. After all, he only has a few small boats in his hand, and sending them out is also a matter of death. While Marin was bored, he let the battleship bombard Edo Castle from time to time, showing off his might...

Bombarding Tokyo, this was Marin's ideal in his previous life, and he didn't expect it to be realized in this life. The only fly in the ointment is that the people in the city at this time are only the people of Uesugi, the famous name of the Warring States Period of the Devils, not the remnants of the devils in later generations. Even if Edo Castle is destroyed, there is no sense of accomplishment.

...

Seeing Marin's fleet showing off its might in Tokyo Bay, but Ogiya Uesugi, who was much stronger than Ganfu's Kushirashimune, was helpless, and Ganfu Shuizi's eyes were full of splendor.

"If Mr. Ma can send troops to help me... I will definitely be able to regain Chuanliang City, and I can also beat that bastard Gan Fu Jianjiu to the ground..."

Not to mention the process of Gan Fushuizi how YY cleaned up Gan Fu Jianjiu, on Marin's side, he took off his undershirt and blew the sea breeze on the bow.

It is now the end of June and the hottest month of July is coming. So, the weather is still quite hot at this time.

Moreover, this is Tokyo Bay. Feeling the hot climate, Marin suddenly remembered the Tokyo One Hot series...

Looking back at Gan Fushuizi who looked exactly like Teacher Cangyi, Marin swallowed, feeling a little hot in his lower abdomen...

...

At this time, Gan Fushuizi, who had ended YY, realized that he must hug Marin's thigh in order to succeed. So, she came to Marin, bowed deeply, and said:

"Mr. Ma is powerful, and he deserves to be a hero. Shuizi will ask Mr. Ma to avenge Shuizi in the future!"

"Avenge you in the future?" Marin was stunned, and focused on the word "in the future"...

Don't blame Marin for wanting to be crooked. If it were another person, Marin might not think so crookedly. However, facing a girl who looks exactly like Mr. Cangyi, Ma Lin had watched many Mr. Cangyi's "Dedicated to Art" movies in his previous life. Even if Gan Fushuizi is wearing clothes, Marin can always imagine the scene after Teacher Cangyi "dedicates himself to art"... So, it's hard for him not to be crooked...

Seeing the green light in Marin's eyes, how could Gan Fushuizi not understand what Marin was thinking? After gritting his teeth, Gan Fu Shuizi said:

"Shuizi understands what Jun Ma means, but Shuizi is not a flirtatious person. If he hands himself over to Jun Ma, can Jun Ma help Shuizi get revenge and give Shuizi a title?"

Marin's brain is overheated at this time, how can he think more? So, he quickly nodded and said:

"Of course I'm willing to avenge you, not to mention revenge, so what if I help you become the governor of Gan Fu's family? Well, there must be a title. Besides, I hope that our child will become the heir in the future!"

"Is this true?" Gan Fu Shuizi was also a little surprised when he heard that he could become the female daimyo and Gan Fu's family supervisor. You know, in Japan, women have no status.

"Really, I can swear!" Marin originally had the idea of ​​​​colonizing Japan, and it would be nice to have a spokesperson. Therefore, he is not cheating the liver to pay for the water.

"Okay, I'll hand myself over to Mr. Ma right now!"

Then, Gan Fu Shuizi took Marin directly to the captain's room...

(1000 words omitted below...)

After a long time, Marin breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Tokyo, it's really hot..."
