The Rise of the European Emperor

Although it was a bit wicked to do so, Marin was not afraid to show his feet. This is not a later life, there are so many powerful paparazzi who can reveal so many secrets. In this era of extremely underdeveloped information dissemination, as long as you don't use too unreliable people, it is still difficult to leak secrets.

In this era, there is no such powerful paparazzi as Zhuo, and other countries do not even have professional spies, only spies in the primitive stage similar to spies. It is as difficult as heaven to find out this secret.

Therefore, Marin can safely send people to help the French landlord Lao Cai pit French farmers, and at the same time send people to pretend to be good people, and help those farmers who were cheated take them to North America to reclaim wasteland, and also reap their gratitude by the way...

Of course, Marin is also confident that those French farmers who were cheated will become his loyalists afterwards. Among other things, when you arrive in North America, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the future.

Marin remembers that at the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century, farmers in the "Old World" of the European continent, including farmers in wealthy countries such as Britain and France, could only take black bread and potatoes as their staple food. At that time, ordinary people in Laomei could already eat wheat bread made of white flour.

There is no way, the natural conditions in North America are too good, people have less land and more land, not the fertile riverside land, people don't bother to cultivate it. There are plenty of fields of wheat or something. Moreover, there are many old beautiful cows. Therefore, when the nationals of Britain, France and Germany are still eating black stick bread and potatoes, ordinary people in the United States have already eaten wheat bread, and they can often eat beef...

During World War I, American soldiers ate canned beef until they vomited, and even threw the canned beef away. And the British soldiers, even though they came from the world's most powerful country, were not so extravagant. During the day, they were concerned about the face of the most powerful country, but at night they secretly picked up the canned beef thrown away by the old American soldiers to eat...

In short, as long as you immigrate to the North American continent, especially the most fertile areas of Laomei, you don't have to worry about food in the future.

It may be difficult for these French farmers to eat black baguettes in France, but in North America, Marin can definitely guarantee that they will have enough black bread. Moreover, it is pure bread that is not mixed with soil and stones. Then, the Newfoundland fishing grounds also provide enough salt fish. If we raise more Taihu pigs, cattle and sheep, there will be no shortage of meat in the future.

How could they not support Marin after living a good life with plenty of food and clothing? Even if they knew the secret that Marin had tricked them, for the sake of food and clothing, they would not blame Marin...

...

In fact, those who were willing to immigrate to America in the early years were either exiles, heretics, or people who could not get along in the native land. If they are living well in their hometown, who would want to leave their hometown and go overseas to make a living?

Why was Britain able to develop thirteen states in North America? Isn't it because of the large-scale land enclosure movement in China, many farmers lost their land and had to go overseas to make a living? In addition, there are exiles and Puritans. They can't survive in China, so they can only go to North America.

However, France is different from the UK. The French society has always been very stable, and its natural conditions are better than that of the UK. In addition, there is no such cheating thing as the land enclosure movement in China, so French farmers naturally refuse to move out casually.

Therefore, although it clearly has the largest population in Europe, France's development of overseas colonies is very bad, and it can only rely on bought black slaves to develop colonies.

It sounds ridiculous, but that's how it is.

Because of the land enclosure movement that pitted farmers against the British, the result was British development of North America and Australia. If there is no enclosure movement, it is estimated that there will be no later generations of Laomei and Canada. Because, if there are not enough British immigrants to North America, it is estimated that North America will become the world of blacks, just like the French colonies of Haiti and Guadeloupe, and later generations will become black-dominated areas...

Another main source of immigration to the United States in later generations was the German region. The German region had been lagging behind for a long time, and it was not until the late 19th century that a unified country was formed and began to develop rapidly. But before that, the German region was a war-torn and impoverished region. In the 19th century, Bremerhaven alone exported millions of German immigrants to North America. There is no way, Germany was too poor at that time, if there is no introduction of crops such as potatoes, many people in Germany will starve to death...

There is also Ireland, because of the famine in the mid-19th century, millions of people starved to death, and millions of Irish immigrated to the United States after the famine. Then, when the Pacific Railway was being built, the workers the old Americans relied on were mainly Irish railway workers composed of Chinese laborers and Irish immigrants. It is said that at that time, the Chinese laborers were competing with the Irish workers in a speed competition to repair the railway. Then, Huagong won...

Marin wanted to use the Germans and English to develop North America, but the population of Germany and England is small!

Even if Austria and Bohemia are included in the German region, the population is only 12 million. Among them, one sixth has been obtained by Marin, which is more than 2 million people.

However, these people are not enough to develop the huge North America. What's more, these more than 2 million people mainly have to develop the local area, and only some of them can be immigrated to develop North America.

And England is also very sad. Because there are only 3 million people in England, which is more than the North Sea country. Scotland is so big, with a population of only 500,000, and Ireland is even smaller, with a population of only 250,000. These populations can only immigrate part of the population to North America, how is it enough?

Even if you start to think about the Maozi of Ukraine and the Grand Duchy of Moscow, the number of people is limited.

As a last resort, Marin thought of uniting with the French landlord Lao Cai to cheat French farmers together, and then fooled the cheated French farmers to North America for development.

After all, France lacks everything in this era, except people...

Marin set himself a small goal - to lure away 1 million farmers from France!

...

France was being targeted by Marin, but the French didn't know at this time that they were busy dealing with the Calais Fortress.

After entering April, Queen Anne still showed no signs of pregnancy. In other words, the possibility of expecting Queen Mother Anne to give birth to a prince is gone, and the throne of Francois I is finally stable.

But this is just the beginning, because Francois I will gather the nobles and soldiers from all over the country. After all, his throne has just been stabilized, and he has not yet had time to control the country. Moreover, there are some stubborn opponents, he also needs to clean up...

At this juncture, Francois I did not want to offend England. Therefore, Francois I agreed to Edward's request to send Baron Robinson, the deputy foreign minister, into the Calais fortress to appease England in the city. Anyway, he didn't let the Englishman intervene in the investigation. Moreover, the former English Baron Marquis, who had defected to France, also gave Robinson a guarantee, making sure that he was "one of his own" and would not find fault with the Kingdom of France...

However, he did not expect that England did not send Robinson to find fault at all, but...

After Robinson was allowed to land in the port of Calais, he was warmly received by General Moreno, the chief officer of the French fortress in Calais.

And Robinson didn't come to find fault, and Edward didn't force him to find fault. Therefore, the two sides were both the host and the guest, and they drank their fill.

The next day, Robinson was ordered to appease the English in the city, but nothing happened. However, on the third night, when Robinson returned from a banquet at the governor's residence in the fortress of Calais, when the carriage passed by an alley, several thugs suddenly rushed out. They shouted "Hack the Brit!" in French, and rushed to the carriage in which Robinson was riding...

What is intriguing is that the four royal guards responsible for protecting Robinson were all on the other side of the carriage at this time. When the thugs rushed out, they froze for a while before drawing out their knight swords and coming around from the other side of the carriage. But by the time they came around, the thugs had already caught the blow and quickly fled down the alley. When several guards chased after them, a lot of debris had been thrown in the alley, blocking their way forward.

The four guards returned without success and took Baron Robinson to the doctor. It's a pity that the level of doctors in Calais is not as good as quack doctors, how can they save Robinson who was stabbed several times in his body. Therefore, Baron Robinson died in the hospital in Calais due to excessive blood loss...
