The Rise of the European Emperor

"Mouth cancer, mouth cancer, mouth cancer, mouth cancer..." The word kept flashing in Marin's mind.

However, suddenly Marin remembered a historical anecdote-it is said that Qianlong also liked to chew betel nuts. However, the great chief lived to be 89 years old! It can be seen that chewing betel nut does not necessarily lead to death.

Moreover, Hu Jian from Guangdong, Guangxi, and many Hakkas in Taiwan like to chew betel nuts, and there are not many deaths.

It seems that those who suffer from oral cancer are all caused by chewing betel nuts in their mouths all day long and eating too much. If you control the amount well, it won't be a big problem.

For example, Great Chief Qianlong, although he liked to chew betel nuts, he definitely couldn’t ignore chewing betel nuts in his mouth when he went to court and dealt with official duties. He must chew a little betel nuts in his spare time. Otherwise, it is tantamount to being rude. And those who chew betel nuts anytime and anywhere are the way to death.

Therefore, if the amount is controlled and excessive consumption is strictly prohibited, harm can still be avoided. Moreover, it is said that chewing betel nuts can also help children fight worms, such as roundworms and other parasites in the stomach, which is also beneficial to children's health.

After thinking about it, Marin finally agreed to Kong Tai's suggestion, intending to fully promote the cultivation of betel nuts and chewing betel nuts in the tropical rainforest colony of Beihai State. Of course, at the same time, it will also tell the people that if you eat too much of this stuff, you will die. In this way, people are not afraid of eating too much indiscriminately. After all, normal people cherish their lives.

In addition, Marin will also enforce the order-you must rinse your mouth after chewing betel nuts. In this way, the chance of getting oral cancer can also be greatly reduced.

In any case, the two major effects of benglang, miasma prevention and parasite treatment, are enough for Marin to work hard to promote. After all, in tropical rainforest areas, the prevention and treatment of oral cancer is secondary, and survival is the primary priority. If even the miasma can't survive, how can we talk about oral cancer?

Moreover, Marin does not believe in the Internet news of later generations. Since the rise of online news, few online editors have integrity. They like to seriously expand some issues for eye-catching purposes. What UC shock department, rainy night old lady and so on...

Just like betel nut, although it can cause oral cancer, it does not mean that eating betel nut will cause oral cancer. And those who get cancer are, after all, a minority. Otherwise, the ancients would not be stupid, and would have stopped eating this poison long ago.

As for the first-level carcinogen, the nicotine in cigarettes is more poisonous than this, so there are still so many smokers? In the same way, pickles contain nitrite, which is also carcinogenic, and people will die from eating pickles. Moreover, it is reported that the carcinogenic rate of betel nut is only one in 100,000, which is lower than the risk of lung cancer caused by smoking.

Therefore, it is the editor who has no integrity who has exaggerated the harm too much. As long as the amount is well controlled, and then pay attention to rinse your mouth afterwards, the hazards can be controlled within a controllable range.

Of course, in order to reduce the harm, Marin intends to improve the way of eating betel nuts. For example, making food such as soup and eating it directly into the stomach without staying in the mouth for a long time can also prevent oral cancer. It seems that there will be a medicinal diet containing betel nuts in later generations, which is good for the human body...

In addition, it seems that eating betel nuts is not only popular in Lingnan, China, but also in Southeast Asia. It is also because of betel nuts that Southeast Asia has such a dense population without any major problems.

...

After thinking through all this, Marin made up his mind to promote betel nut. This kind of thing that is good for immigrants in tropical areas must be vigorously promoted.

In fact, because of fear of miasma in tropical areas, Marin can only use black slaves as the main force for tropical development. But Marin knew that it was easier to ask God than to send God away. Wait until these places are developed, and then want to send black people back, that will not work. There will be no problem in the past two or three hundred years. Later, with the rise of civil rights, these black people will become uncles who cannot be sent away.

For example, the old blacks in the United States in later generations, if they are really afraid of being discriminated against, they should move back to Africa! But they will never agree. After all, even if you go back to Africa, you won’t be able to have a full stomach. Only if Lai is in the United States and receives relief, can he have enough food and drink, and he can go to the bar to make an appointment if he has nothing to do. There are so many tall and strong blacks in the NBA, which is unimaginable in Africa.

Marin has seen the World Cup, and the African national team played. They are all thin and black, and they are not tall, and few are tall and strong. Drogba and many other strong black West African stars grew up in France.

Marin didn't think black people were so lowly, but he was very troubled by their tradition of "hands-on but not brains". From the emancipation of black slaves in the 19th century to the 21st century, it has been almost two hundred years, but blacks still have the same virtue and can only mess around in the sports world. Therefore, Marin is not confident that he can teach black people well. In order to avoid too many blacks in the future, he had to set up a sterilization center in Grenada to sterilize all blacks entering Africa.

But it’s not an option to keep doing this. After all, if you don’t need your own people to occupy the tropics, you still have to rely on black people.

Therefore, Kong Tai's suggestion to eat betel nuts came at the right time. With betel nuts that specifically restrain miasma and parasites, and artemisinin that specializes in treating malaria, Marin can safely send native immigrants to Cuba and Panama.

And when the native immigrants took root in Cuba and other places on a large scale and reproduced their offspring, Marin would no longer need to introduce old blacks. Of course, as far as getting up early, a large number of black uncles are definitely needed to help reclaim the wasteland. Marin will not treat them badly, eat and drink well, but he will not let them have black children...

In fact, for the development of tropical areas, Marin prefers the Chinese in Southeast Asia. Southeast Asian Chinese are industrious and good at farming. However, it is well managed and has no ambitions. You know, the Chinese in Southeast Asia have lived in Southeast Asia for thousands of years, but they have only established one Lanfang country. It can be seen that they are a group of obedient citizens with little political ambition.

Hardworking, obedient and unambitious, and adaptable to the tropical rainforest climate, no matter how you look at it, it is the best choice for developing tropical areas.

But now that there are betel nuts, it is not necessary to go to Southeast Asia to recruit Chinese to come to Cuba and Panama. Because native residents can also immigrate to Cuba and Panama.

Moreover, these days, the number of Chinese in Southeast Asia is not very large. After all, before the fall of the Ming Dynasty and the upsurge of "going to Nanyang" in the late Qing Dynasty, although there were many Chinese in Southeast Asia, they were scattered and difficult to find. If you have the time to look for people everywhere, you might as well immigrate from the native land.

However, the biggest problem of Beihai State now is the small population. In the places with a good climate on the east coast of the United States in later generations, Marin is seriously short of population to develop, let alone the tropical regions with harsh climates such as Cuba and Panama.

But Cuba and Panama are so important. Cuba is responsible for the production of cane sugar, rubber, sisal and tropical fruits that are urgently needed in Europe. It is a very important tropical economic crop production area. It also grows spices such as tea and pepper. big.

Panama, on the other hand, is an important traffic route, responsible for communicating with Chile and Peru, and also communicating with the Ming Dynasty. Although I don't expect anything to be produced here, the importance of geographical location alone is worth Marin's placement of a large number of his own people here.

But because the environment in Panama is too harsh, Marin has only arranged more than a thousand strong young soldiers here, plus a large number of black slaves, but he dare not place old and weak women and children here. Because it is difficult for those old and weak women and children to survive the threat of miasma. Now, with betel nuts, Marin dared to immigrate there.

For this reason, Marin ordered that in the future, other tree species will be cut down in a wide area on both sides of the concrete road in Panama, and betel nuts will be widely planted to ensure the needs of immigrants in tropical America. Before the local betel nuts are successfully planted, they can only import dried betel nuts from the Ming Dynasty...
