The Rise of the European Emperor

In fact, Marin hopes to mint more copper coins to meet domestic needs. Because he comprehensively reformed the domestic farms into an employment system, serfs became salaried hired labor, and they had more spare money in their hands. It's just that after being liberated from half-slaves, the farmers have not yet cultivated the habit of consumption. When they develop consumption habits, the commercial trade of Beihai will usher in explosive development, and the demand for copper coins will also become huge.

Marin had experienced this personally in his previous life. It has been opened for 40 years, and in the first 20 years, although the economy has developed and people gradually have money, most people are used to living a hard life of diligence and thrift. It wasn't until the 21st century, when a new generation of young people grew up, that everyone became more and more accustomed to consumption, and even consumed ahead of schedule. Then, the entire country's market was stimulated to take off. The demand for money also increased significantly. Fortunately, there are electronic payment methods, otherwise there will be a shortage of banknotes.

Similarly, in the current Beihai country, after Marin carried out farm reforms and paid the serfs a daily salary of 2 pfennigs, the agricultural manors of the Beihai country have actually become capitalized farms for hired workers. The next step is that Marin encourages these rich farmers to go to the town for consumption and purchase.

It's just that the secret of the high agricultural production in the North Sea country needs to be kept secret. Therefore, Marin did not cancel the peasants' serf status for the time being, but also restricted their freedom of movement and prohibited them from leaving their hometown. If you go out for a long time, you need an official pass. But within the confines of their home cities and towns, the survival security of farmers has been greatly enhanced.

For example, the safety of the peasants was strictly protected by the law, and the nobles could not dispose of the serfs arbitrarily, and had to go through a court trial. At the same time, Marin is already arranging to build hospitals in each town to protect people's health.

After these reforms, the lives of the people of Beihai State have been greatly improved. And Marin's reputation in the North Sea country is second only to religious gods such as God and saints. Of course, at ordinary times, Marin also asked Bishop Taylor's disciples and grandchildren to help brainwash the people and sing praises for the Hoffman family, which also made a great contribution. Especially for the eight vassal states that were newly brought under the jurisdiction, the disciples and grandchildren of Bishop Taylor's Huyou faction made great contributions and quickly stabilized the hearts of the local people.

Of course, this has a lot to do with Marin's practice of migrating all the nobles and nobles in the newly conquered areas to Bremen Province. If a region revolts, there must be a leader. In this era, the nobles, big and small, are the natural leaders of various places. It is very convenient to control and suppress them if they are all migrated and concentrated. This is exactly the same as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's behavior of relocating all the powerful people in the country to Maoling—all the powerful people in various places are under centralized control, who dares to take the lead in rebellion?

Therefore, Marin's method of imitating the concentration of powerful nobles from the Han Dynasty is very clever. This largely ensures local tranquility.

Those tyrants, after leaving their lair, are like tigers in Pingyang and dragons in the shallows. They can't shake anymore, and there is no threat. The Western Han Dynasty established five imperial mausoleums: Changling, Anling, Yangling, Maoling and Pingling.

The gathering of the world's rich and powerful not only stimulated the commercial prosperity of Chang'an, but also brought peace to the place. Therefore, during the Western Han Dynasty, there were basically no local tyrannical riots. They are all under house arrest in Wuling, right under the eyes of the emperor, who would dare to commit suicide?

On the contrary, the Eastern Han Dynasty did not implement the policy of relocating the powerful to the imperial mausoleum, allowing the local powerful to develop. They also built castle-like defensive buildings such as the Fortress, allowing the powerful to take root and grow in various places. Then, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, these local tyrants took advantage of the opportunity of the Yellow Turban Uprising to rise up and beat the world to pieces.

If the Eastern Han Dynasty continued to implement the Western Han Dynasty's policy of relocating the world's powerful to the emperor's mausoleum, those powerful and powerful would be under centralized control, and who would dare to dominate the local area? No, they have all been relocated, so they will definitely not be able to dominate in their hometown, and the common people will not be oppressed... and they will not be forced to launch the Yellow Turban Uprising...

In fact, Marin also wanted to imitate this policy of the Western Han Dynasty, but what is cheating is that in European Christian countries, the emperor does not have a mausoleum. The kings are only buried in the cemetery of the capital cathedral, most of which are high-end and luxurious. Is it possible that you want to relocate the world's powerful to live in the capital cathedral? no space...

Therefore, Marin can only rely on the opportunity of the initial conquest, and stuff the nobles of the conquered area into the province of Bremen. Then, arrange officials and police from the North Sea State to take over the new area. At the same time, it also arranged for Bishop Taylor to send disciples to help appease the people.

However, this method can only guarantee the stability of the first few decades. Over time, there will still be new tycoons rising everywhere. Therefore, Marin has been hesitating-should he learn from the Western Han Dynasty's policy of migrating tyrants to the imperial mausoleum, or strengthen judicial construction?

After thinking for many days, Marin still decided to strengthen the judicial construction. Because, forcibly relocating tyrants to a place will do too much damage to the local economy. The reason why a tyrant is a tyrant must be in control of the lifeline of the local economy. If it is forced to relocate, although the tyrants will lose their threat, it will also cause harm to the local economy. Therefore, Marin decided to strengthen the legal system to monitor local tycoons.

...

Of course, in the past few decades when nobles from all over the country were concentrated in Bremen Province, the interior of Beihai would be extremely peaceful. Therefore, Marin can rest assured to carry out various reforms and constructions. Then, the North Sea country's economy will inevitably explode. Even if people's consumption habits have not been cultivated in 20 years, after 20 years, when the new generation grows up, everyone will get used to spending money.

At that time, the domestic market of Beihai State will usher in explosive growth. Then, everyone has money, and there is a great demand for goods in the market. And the official tax revenue will also be poured in...

Similarly, the demand for coins in the North Sea country will be extremely strong at that time. Whether it's gold, silver or copper coins, the demand can get scary.

But now, the North Sea country's demand for coins is not that great. This is because the people of this generation in Beihai are mainly farmers who account for the majority of the population, and they have not yet formed the habit of consumption. At the same time, it has not been a few years since they started saving money. Even if you want them to consume, they may not be willing.

However, 20 years later, when the next generation grows up and becomes the main force of society, this generation has saved money for 20 years, and basically every family has a lot of money to spare. Based on the income of 2 Finneys per day, the annual income is 730 Finneys, which is about 12.16 gold coins. But there is no money for food and lodging in the Beihai country farm. They only need to buy daily necessities such as clothes, daily necessities, rice, oil and salt. If you save a little, you can have a balance of seven or eight gold coins a year. Twenty years later, it will be a hundred or dozens of gold coins. That's a lot of money and can buy a lot of things. At that time, their children can be used for squandering consumption...

But first, Marin has to cultivate the habit of spending in the children...

Therefore, Marin decided to open chain-operated school stores in artisan schools in various places (actually ordinary schools, which are only used as a cover to prevent the aristocrats from resenting them).

At that time, all kinds of candies, biscuits of various flavors, milk powder, French fries, dried bananas, melon seeds, peanuts, popcorn, candied fruit and other snacks will be placed on the shelves of the school store. Of course, when the chili planting and production in the Americas have reached a large scale, Marin will also launch a dominant snack-spicy strips...

Marin intends to use these snacks to cultivate children's "good habit" of spending money. When they grow up, the coins in their hands will not be hidden at home and moldy. Moreover, people who have read books often do not treat themselves badly. Because they are more confident and think they have knowledge and status, they are naturally reluctant to treat themselves badly, and they will be more generous in spending money.

What's more, there is no money to study in Beihai country. The children only need to spend money on clothes, pens, ink and paper. In addition, their family is rich, so as long as they cry and make trouble, they can still get some pocket money to buy spicy sticks...

This is just an artisan school for the children of the common people, and the formal school for the children of the nobles. Marin does not need to cultivate their consumption habits. You only need to open the school store and put snacks on the shelves, and there will be plenty of people to buy...

It doesn't take 20 years, more than ten years later, a group of children who grew up eating snacks have money in their hands, so they don't have to worry about not going to the store to spend. At that time, it will be the time when Beihai's business will explode...

In other words, when Marin opened a school store, he was actually cultivating children's consumption habits. Of course, the school store is also very profitable, there is no objection to this point. Although Marin invested a lot of money in running the school, as long as he monopolizes the school's store, he can still earn back his capital...
