The Rise of the European Emperor

The promotion of any new system will encounter resistance. For example, the remote leadership system obviously touched the interests of the fief aristocrats. Therefore, after Marin proposed the remote control system, he was naturally opposed.

But fortunately, in Marin's North Sea Grand Duchy, most of the nobles were promoted from the commoners by Marin. Naturally, these people would not object to Marin's decision. Moreover, they don't quite understand how much the remote control system restrains them.

A fief aristocrat, after he has actually mastered the power of the fief, naturally needs to gather a team and a large team to maintain the rule and security of the fief. Therefore, every real noble noble is a powerful faction. And some fief aristocrats with higher titles became independent princes because they had a complete leadership team and a strong army. They can even ignore the orders of the imperial court.

The remote control system is equivalent to depriving those fief aristocrats of the right to recruit administrative talents and fief troops in their own territory. Although the benefits will not be small, without the support of administrative talents and the army, it will not pose a threat to the imperial court.

Because, under the remote leadership system, the officials of the fiefs were dispatched by the monarch and the imperial court, and they were naturally loyal to the imperial court, not the feudal lord. While the imperial court managed the fiefs, naturally the feudal lord did not need to recruit the army himself, but used the official army. In this way, the feudal lord would lose the excuse to recruit private troops, and would not have the ability to fight against the imperial court.

So that those feudal lords could only live in the capital and be a rich man...

Why was Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty so developed and populated? Because there are many such nobles who have fiefs and no governance rights living in Chang'an City. Those princes, earls, etc., although they can get a lot of wealth from the fiefs every year, but they have no real power over the fiefs.

Therefore, these people can only hold a lot of money and stay in Chang'an City to eat and wait to die. But because they are supported by blood transfusions from the fiefs, they are the masters of the money. Such people get together in Chang'an, which naturally greatly drives Chang'an's consumer economy. Therefore, Chang'an seems very prosperous.

In Europe, because of the actual seal system. Therefore, those nobles were scattered in their respective castles in the countryside and could not be concentrated. And this also caused the lack of large cities in ancient Europe. Because, those wealthy aristocrats are scattered all over the countryside. If the rich are not concentrated, how can a big city develop? Therefore, there are very few cities in the Holy Roman Empire with particularly large populations. Generally, a city with a population of more than 20,000 is considered a big city. Even the largest city in the Empire, like Milan, has a population of only 100,000 people.

Therefore, Marin engaged in this remote leadership system, not only because of the factors that limit the strength of the nobility, but also to promote the economic development of the capital.

These feudal lords, all rich and concentrated in the capital, do you think the business of the capital is not booming?

Because there are too few old-fashioned nobles,

Therefore, they failed to prevent the implementation of the remote control system. And Marin is also thankful - thanks to the early implementation of this system. If it were postponed for a few more years, and my gang had enough of the addiction of being a real nobleman, maybe they would also oppose the remote leadership system. And these are different from those old-fashioned aristocrats, who have very little power in Marin's court, mainly civil servants. And the new nobles under Malin's command are mostly middle and senior officers, and they are all masters of military power. If they object, Marin really has no way to implement this remote control system...

...

In fact, the French are implementing a similar system. The King of France brought most of the nobles to live in Paris, preventing them from returning to the territory to hold real power. Although the remote system is not explicitly proposed, the situation is somewhat similar.

This also led to the concentration of most of the dignitaries in the Kingdom of France in Paris, France. After hundreds of years of development, Paris has become the absolute center of France and the main activity and consumption place of the aristocratic rich people. Except for Paris, the rest of France is rural...

...

In view of the experience of these later generations, after the implementation of the remote system, Marin intends to connect the two places of Aurich and Emden, and build a metropolitan area of ​​Aurich-Emden, which is specially used for the resettlement of domestic the rich and powerful.

Among them, the city of Aurich mainly housed the powerful and powerful in the country. The Port of Emden mainly accommodates large domestic businessmen. As for the distance between the two cities, since it is only 20 kilometers away, Marin intends to build a wide concrete road to connect the two cities. In this way, the communication between the two places is greatly facilitated.

As a commercial port, Emden will definitely have merchant ships from all over the world. The cane sugar and spices produced in the American colonies will definitely be ported at Emden in the future.

Therefore, Emden has no problem developing into a prosperous commercial port. And when the big cement road from Aurich to Emden is opened, it will be much easier to transport goods from Emden to Aurich.

In this way, it will not affect the rich and powerful people in Emden to enjoy life and use high-end products from all over the world. A few years later, I dare not say that it is as prosperous as Paris, but there is no problem in making the Aurich-Emden metropolitan area the most prosperous metropolitan area in Germany.

Those nobles, because the manor used the high-yield fertilizer provided by Marin, the land income must be very large. Moreover, after the implementation of the remote command system, they do not need to bear the expenses of their officials and the army, and they can save more money.

With these well-paid masters living in the Aurich-Emden Metropolitan Area planned by Marin, if Marin promulgates preferential policies to promote business development, it is difficult for the metro area to be underdeveloped...

As for the businessmen living in Emden, as businessmen, most of them are not poor. With so many wealthy dignitaries and businessmen, and Marin provides a good and relaxed business environment, it is difficult for this metropolitan area to be underdeveloped!

In particular, with the opening of the Münster Canal in the future, the Port of Emden will also become an important outlet for the German Rhine region. By then, Emden's business port will be more prosperous and prosperous.

With an adequate supply of commodities and enough local tyrant consumers, it is hard to imagine that this new metro area is underdeveloped...

And, who is Marin? That is a transmigrator from the future! In particular, he is still a traveler from China's funeral. For other things, Marin may not be proficient, but he is not good at economics, and he doesn't know how to learn from other people's experience?

Because this metropolitan area has a sufficient number of local tyrants and commodity supplies, at that time, Marin only needs to build a few commodity wholesale markets and commercial pedestrian streets, which will be enough to stimulate the development of commerce.

Moreover, Marin intends to cancel the city tax for Aurich and Emden. This will make it easier for people to get in and out of the city. Then, the flow of people is bound to increase. With enough flow of people, enough funds... It will be just around the corner to transform into the prosperity of the metropolitan area...

Of course, because Aurich is the capital, there are too many politicians, and although the city entry tax has been cancelled, for the safety of the bigwigs, security checks must be strictly enforced. Otherwise, if the big man was assassinated, it would be sad...

As for Emden, Marin intends to build it into a pure free trade port, attracting merchants and commodities from all over the world to gather and circulate here, and promote the development of the local economy...
