The Rise of the European Emperor

For the immigration and development of the Americas, Marin has a comprehensive plan. Previously, for various reasons, Marin's American colonies had only tens of thousands of English immigrants from Cape Breton Island and New York, and a few thousand each from Savannah, Cuba, Grenada, and the Pampas. In Panama, because of the harsh climate, there are mainly black uncles, and there are only a thousand white people.

In total, these colonial populations, not counting the black uncles, are only 60,000 to 70,000 people. Among them, the most important thing is the 50,000 English refugees. These refugees were the refugees who destroyed several counties in the north of England when Socrates invaded England.

Because in order to prevent people from robbing business, Marin deliberately demonized the American continent. As a result, Marin also suffered from the bitter fruit-not many German immigrants were willing to go to the American continent.

But Marin can't explain it yet, because as soon as he explains it, he will reveal it, and other countries will become interested in America. Therefore, he could only endure it. After finally catching the opportunity of the peasant uprising, it was possible to force the immigrant population to America on a large scale.

In the future, Marin intends to let the core areas such as New York and Pennsylvania be mainly occupied and developed by Germans. The English, on the other hand, are mainly arranged by the sea, mainly fishing and whaling.

The strengths of the English are mainly sailing and sheep raising. They are not proficient in farming or anything. If it weren't for the suppression of the army, they would not be willing to cultivate the land intensively. Therefore, when the German immigrants are enough, it is better to arrange them to go fishing or sailing, which can be regarded as liberating their talents.

As for German immigrants, most of them are landlubbers, who value land more and like to farm safely. In addition, the German peasants are obedient...

Although the talent of German farmers in farming is not much better than that of Englishmen, and cannot be compared with that of Chinese farmers, Germans are more obedient and obedient than Englishmen. Thousands of years of serfdom have made German peasants used to obeying the orders of noble masters, and they have always been relatively honest. Even participating in the peasant uprising, it was because the aristocrats oppressed them so hard that they couldn't survive, so they had no choice but to rise up. Like northern Germany, because there are enough fields to grow, there are no peasant uprisings.

England is different. Since the "Watt Taylor" peasant uprising broke out in 1381, England's serfdom has begun to disintegrate. Throughout the 15th century, most of the serfs in England redeemed their free bodies and became yeomen.

Self-cultivated farmers have a relatively strong self-awareness, but they are also difficult to manage. For example, in the New York colony, if it weren't for the 2,000 colonial troops suppressing it, Albert would not be able to control those English immigrants.

Moreover, in the past two years, those immigrants from England have also started to make a lot of noise. The main thing is - those English immigrants who want to redeem their serf status and become yeoman...

The reason is simple-these immigrants from England were originally homeowners in the country. A few years ago, because the domestic food was robbed by Scotland, I was too hungry to survive.

Only then did he accept to go to America and be a serf of Marin.

In the first few years, they were indeed very honest. After all, compared with the time when the food was robbed by the Scottish army and was about to starve to death, life as a serf for Marin was much better.

However, after many years passed, they also gradually forgot the kindness of feeding and warming Marin as serfs, and began to want more...

If they were German peasants, they might not have such thoughts. Because the serfdom of the Germans has always been like this, and it is right to listen to the lord. But the English farmers were different. They had been yeoman, and they knew the freedom of being a yeoman.

Therefore, after being stable serfs for a few years, they began to try to ask Albert for the right to redeem their serf status, wanting to return to self-cultivation farmers...

Of course, Albert did not agree to their request. After all, this hole cannot be opened casually. But Marin knew that once this group of people had this idea, they couldn't hold back anymore. Those who have been masters are not willing to be slaves forever. One day, these Englishmen will make a fuss.

Therefore, Marin is also very straightforward-you don't want to be serfs, do you? no problem! As long as the German immigrants are in place, we will give you freedom! Not only will I give you freedom, but I will also lend you money to buy a boat, so that you can be the owner of the boat and become a fisherman!

It just so happens that the Newfoundland fishing grounds can't catch enough fish. If these Englishmen go there, they will definitely catch a lot of fish. At that time, it happens that the Germans are farming, and the English are fishing... No, you can also recruit sailors and even sailors from the English... It can be regarded as the best use of people...

Of course, men in England go fishing, and women can't stay idle. They can herd sheep at home, while watching the children, while herding sheep... Herding sheep does not require much physical strength, women can do it. What's more, you can also use a shepherd dog to help!

As for farming, let the honest and obedient German farmers come! Then, the two sides exchange supplies. The English exchange their fish and wool with the Germans for food and meat, and everyone can live well...

In the future, when England is united with the North Sea State, Marin's descendants can recruit army soldiers in the North Sea State and sailors in England. Everyone performs their duties and gives full play to their strengths...

To be honest, it is really wasteful to let the English become the colonial overlord. The talents of these guys are fishing and being pirates, but they want to occupy land. As a result, the land occupied by the English was developed, but it was mainly cultivated by black slaves. Gentlemen in England are not willing to engage in such manual labor.

In the later generations of the United States, agriculture took off because of the introduction of many German and Irish immigrants, so they developed agriculture with peace of mind. Originally, the colonies of the Thirteen States were mainly plantations for the cultivation of cash crops. To tell the truth, Jamestown, the first British colony in North America, did not engage in agriculture at all, and its food was mainly supplied by Indians. In the 17th century, Jamestown was besieged by the Indians because of a quarrel with the Indians. They lost their food sources and many people starved to death. Then, the British colonists in Jamestown survived by eating the corpses of their compatriots...

Of course, we cannot blame the British for their reluctance to farm with peace of mind. Rather, people have better ways to make money, so why should they farm? The English are good at sailing, and sailing trade is very profitable, which is much more cost-effective than farming. Therefore, the English all went to engage in maritime trade. Only the Germans and Irish are dead-brained and plan to eat in the land. Of course, the English also farmed. However, people generally use black slaves, or hire German or Irish descendants to farm the land, and be their own masters...

That being the case, Marin felt that it would be better to give the English people freedom and let them play the characteristics of being good at navigation and maritime trade. Anyway, I also need a lot of sailing talents. As for farming, you can rely on the Germans. How good it is for everyone to perform their duties and do what they are good at...
