The Rise of the European Emperor

In fact, Sir Newton was not awarded honors for his scientific research, but he was the director of the Royal Mint and he was also engaged in currency reform. He did a good job. In addition, his Cambridge University classmate Montagu became the Chancellor of the Exchequer... That's why he mixed up the noble title of jazz.

But it is undeniable that Newton's knighthood is indeed the first of its kind for scholars. In later generations, the United Kingdom discovered that it seems that it is quite cost-effective to confer a free knighthood on scientists. Then, it went too far, even a football coach like Ferguson was knighted...

Later, the idol player David Beckham also wanted to be crowned with all his heart. However, it was unsuccessful. After all, Beckham is just good-looking, and he hasn't done anything that has made great contributions to the UK. It's hard to be knighted just by showing off. Unless, as the captain, he can lead England's rough buddies to win the World Cup...

In fact, the title of jazz, which cannot be hereditary, has little practical significance. It is more of an honorary nature, just like the certificates received by students. Of course, the honor of jazz is much more powerful than the certificate of merit. In many things, it enjoys certain priority and is recognized by the whole society. Therefore, many scientists also sharpened their heads and wanted to mix one.

In short, there are not many knights for scientists. Without particularly outstanding contributions, can you be knighted? However, the Beihai Kingdom seems to have made an exception - Da Vinci is now a baron...

But in this era, scientists who can reach the height of Da Vinci, Marin thinks it is basically difficult to have. If there is another one, Marin can't wait. It's just a title, and if you can exchange for a great science god, it's a guaranteed profit.

In addition to the factualization of the artisan school, Marin also clarified the hierarchy of the military academy. That is to say, the military academy after elementary school is just a school for training soldiers and non-commissioned officers. Ordinary students become soldiers, and those with outstanding talents become non-commissioned officers, that is, junior officers in the army. If you want to be a real officer, you must go to a military university.

Then, when it comes to going to a military university, Marin will also start to favor the children of nobles. Especially for commanding majors, basically only the children of nobles are open to it. Only technical majors such as engineering and artillery will be open to outstanding people among the children of civilians. In this way, it can be regarded as opening a door of convenience for the children of common people.

However, in order to motivate ordinary soldiers to fight bravely. Marin also stipulated that soldiers who have won the titles of "martyrs" and "battle heroes", even if they are civilian children, can have a place in a military university, only one. With this kind of stimulation, those civilian children will be able to fight bravely to be the first. Although it is only a qualification to go to a military university, not a knighthood, but if you can cross the natural barrier of non-commissioned officers and officers, it will be easier to make meritorious service and be promoted. Then, knighting is easier.

In this way, while Marin opened some back doors for the civilian children, he also strictly controlled the size of the officers to avoid the expansion of the military's strength.

He remembered how Prussia was kidnapped by the army in later generations. When the military Junkers took control of Germany, launching a war was inevitable. Therefore, while strengthening the army, Marin must also suppress the influence of the army. The ideal state is - the civil servants slightly suppress the military officials, but they cannot interfere with military affairs.

To be honest, the number of able-bodied men in Beihai Kingdom is too small, and there are also few who can serve as soldiers. There are only 300,000 to 400,000 strong men in the mainland, even if one out of ten is drawn, it can only draw 30,000 to 40,000. It is impossible to mobilize the whole people, because there are no machines in this era, and industrial and agricultural production cannot do without labor. If the whole people were mobilized, social production would come to a complete standstill.

Therefore, the population problem is still the main problem restricting the North Sea country's take-off. And Marin wanted to get the wishes of the more than 300,000 disaster victims outside Paris,

It's getting more and more eager.

Now, a few months have passed, and Baron Adair, a well-known prodigal son in Paris, has finally fallen into the trap and lost all his wealth. job of refugees.

However, after becoming a refugee management officer, Baron Adair felt that something was wrong—why did the superior nobles all hint that he wanted to "dispose" of these refugees? How to deal with it? Could it be killed?

He didn't know how to "handle" those refugees until the representative of Beihai came to him and gave him a bag of gold coins...

"Isn't this cheap for outsiders?" At first, Baron Adair was not happy. Although he is a prodigal son, he is also patriotic. He knew that if these more than 300,000 refugees were given to others, it would be simply an enemy.

In the agricultural era, population is the guarantee of social productivity. If these more than 300,000 refugees were sent to Beihai, it is estimated that a land as large as a principality could be reclaimed. After all, many German principalities have a total population of only 200,000 to 300,000 people.

Baron Adair even thought that if France could not afford to support these refugees, it might as well give them to the Duke of Lorraine and other German princes close to France.

However, his superior, Baron Bogur, sprayed him bloody——

"Are you stupid? I also want to send these more than 300,000 refugees to the Duke of Lorraine and other princes who are close to France. But, have you ever thought about it, can they afford these people? My mighty Kingdom of France, There is not so much food to feed the victims, how can those small princes close to France afford it?"

"Then why can the North Sea country afford it?" Baron Adair asked, poking his neck.

"What the hell... don't they have high food production?" Baron Bogur was a little angry.

"Why is the food production in France not high?" Baron Adair continued to talk back.

Baron Bogur was angry, and after beating up Baron Adair, he explained:

"They have volcanoes...Forget it, this is a state secret, I won't tell you. In short, you have to remember that we compete for Naples in order to produce as much food as the North Sea country. But now, we can't afford the thirty Tens of thousands of refugees can only be sent away first. If you stay in Paris, it is easy to cause major trouble!"

In the end, Baron Adair, the stubborn donkey, obeyed Baron Bogur's arrangement and was willing to act as the middleman and "sell" the disaster victims to the North Sea State. Because he knew that after the money was sent to the king, it would be used for war and help the great France seize the Kingdom of Naples. Then, the grain of the Kingdom of France can be increased...

As for the matter of his notoriety for thousands of years, Baron Adair had a relatively simple mind and didn't think so deeply. Anyway, if you can play for France, that's right. Besides, Baron Bogur promised him that some of the money from selling the disaster victims could be given to him and let him use it to pay off the debt. Definitely good news for a gambler...

These are nothing, but Baron Adair made a request, which made Marin's head huge and even a little difficult to deal with. Because, Baron Adair proposed—to send his men to follow the refugees to America to see if America can really accommodate the more than 300,000 French disaster victims...
