The Rise of the European Emperor
Chapter 1494: The Duke of Pampas
If William was born in the second or third year of Caesar's birth, Marin might not be too excited about Caesar's arrival. Just like the illegitimate son Robert, Marin didn't feel very deep.
However, William was born 11 years after Angela gave birth to Caesar. During this period, Marin and Angela waited for 11 years. Coupled with the change of mentality before and after going to the Ming Dynasty, Marin was very happy about William's birth.
In order to celebrate William's birth, Marin ordered the army to fire a 21-gun salute. At the same time, Marin held a big banquet at various intersections in Aurich City, and invited the people of the city to eat and drink for free.
In addition to entertaining the people in the city, Marin also ordered his brother's manor to give the serfs extra meals to celebrate the birth of the second prince. Of course, the extra meal is actually just adding an extra salted fish to the serfs' meals.
Salted fish may be rare in the inland countries of Germany, but Marin, who is used as a fishing ground in Newfoundland, doesn't have too many in his hands. Marin has decided to add 100 large and medium-sized fishing boats in the Newfoundland fishing grounds, and use winch trawls to fish in the Newfoundland fishing grounds. In addition, Marin also intends to add 20 whaling teams, professional whaling, in order to provide sufficient whale meat and whale oil.
It is foreseeable that there will not be too much fish in the Beihai country in the future. In order to make the fish taste better, Marin plans to build a cannery on Newfoundland to produce canned fish with pickled cabbage. Use the sauerkraut produced in Beihai and the freshly caught sea fish, add ginger slices and peppers, and make canned sauerkraut fish for local supply.
With the help of William's birth this time, Marin added a meal to the people, which can be regarded as a warm-up. When the production of the Newfoundland fishing ground expands, everyone will get used to eating fish frequently.
At this time, the Newfoundland fishing grounds, except for Marin's fleet, are local Indian fishermen with extremely low catches, and there are no other competitors at all. Therefore, what is placed in front of Marin is an endless catch. Even after Beihai State annexed 8 vassal states, its total population was only over 2 million. Even if the three meals a day are all fish, it is still far from enough to eat the catch of the Newfoundland fishing grounds.
In addition, Marin also took advantage of William's birth to please the citizens of the newly annexed 8 vassal states. Although salted fish is not a rare thing, but Marin gave them a few meals for free, which can still buy some people's hearts. With the help of this celebration, Marin also hopes to ease the relationship with the people of the eight newly annexed vassal states. For this reason, in the eight newly conquered vassal states, Marin's salted fish were not only distributed to the manors under his own name, but all were distributed to please the locals.
...
Subsequently, Marin also held a grand baby christening ceremony for Prince William. The standard of this baptism ceremony was very high, and Bishop Taylor of the North Sea Kingdom did not get the chance to baptize Prince William. Because, Marin sent pigeons to Italy and invited his ally, the future Pope Leo X, who is now Archbishop Giovanni Di Lorenzo de Medici.
Moreover, Giovanni Di Lorenzo de' Medici also agreed to become William's godfather.
Now, maybe people don't realize what. But when Giovanni Di Lorenzo de' Medici becomes Pope a few years later, William will be awesome. Godson of the Pope, that is the identity that can walk sideways in Europe...
In fact, William's brother Caesar was also baptized by the Pope. Well, the one who baptized Caesar was the current Pope Julius II who was in exile...
However, considering that Caesar was the grandson of Julius II, Julius II did not accept Caesar as his godson. After all, there is a difference in generation between the two. Grandparents who accept grandsons as godsons will be laughed at. However, because he is the person baptized by the current pope, Caesar still has his own halo.
And his younger brother William was even more powerful, and recognized the future pope as godfather. Although Caesar is the grandson of the current pope, this relationship cannot be made public. As for William's godfather, the future relationship can be made public... In the future, if the second generation conflicts, William can completely yell—"My godfather is the Pope, how dare you touch me?"
Of course, Marin doesn't want William to grow into such a second-hand guy in the future. But this halo, even if William himself didn't tell it, others would know about it. As for what he didn't know, he didn't have the ability to embarrass William. Because there must be a group of thugs protecting William. Unless, like those idiots in the TV series, William ran out secretly without guards. For this kind of person, Marin feels that death is not a pity...
The emperor's private visits in micro-services also brought thugs. Mr. Guoli played Kang Mazi's private interview in a micro-service. Not only did he bring thugs, but he was also guarded by Yu Shilong, a big soldier who led the army. When encountering danger or apportionment, Yu Shilong will show up with a large team. This is the correct way to open it. As for those who deliberately escaped from the guards and ran out... It's normal to die... You're lucky if you don't die...
...
On the night of the baptism ceremony, the 11-year-old Caesar suffered from insomnia...
The next day, Caesar asked Marin with black eyes:
"Father, you made such a big show for William, are you planning to hand over the Beihai Kingdom to William in the future?"
Marin was stunned:
"Why do you think so?"
Caesar said aggrievedly:
"You have engaged Margaret and me, and you clearly want me to be the king of England. Then, do you intend to hand over the position of Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of the North Sea to William?"
Marin laughed and patted Caesar's head. He did not immediately answer Caesar's question, but asked rhetorically:
"Then, are you reluctant to give Beihai Kingdom to your younger brother?"
After tweaking for a while, Caesar said:
"I'm a bit reluctant. After all, Beihai is the place where I grew up. In my eyes, Aurich is better than London... In London, I don't feel like home, but in Aurich, I feel like home. ..."
Marin also heaved a sigh of relief - he didn't want to kill his younger brother like those spoiled babies in later generations...
In the 21st century, there are many brats in China. After their parents gave birth to a second child, they were afraid that their love would be robbed, and some even had the idea of killing their younger brother...
Marin didn't want his son to become such a vicious and unbeatable brat, and he was relieved by the temptation just now. It turned out that Caesar was just reluctant to leave his lair.
Relieved, Marin laughed and said:
"Don't worry, my little Caesar, the North Sea country is still yours. It's just that I plan to give your brother a large portion of the American colonies. Do you have any objection?"
Caesar shook his head repeatedly and said:
"I don't mind, as long as it's not local, I have no problem!"
At this time, Marin brought the map and pointed it to Caesar:
"Hey, it's here, South America thousands of miles away. I plan to make William the Duke of Pampas and give William the Pampas Grassland."
Caesar looked at the map of America and blinked, saying:
"Just give such a small piece of land? Will my brother be unhappy?"
Marin laughed loudly and said:
"No, the Pampas Grassland is several times the size of the Beihai Kingdom. If it weren't for the inconvenient management of Taiyuan, I might not even be willing to seal it to him!"
