The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 869 Autumn Harvest and Agricultural Adjustment (1)

Of course, it's not that Marin has no integrity (although his integrity is indeed a little less), but that Marin really yearns for the chicness of the heroes in the martial arts stories flying around in the sky.

Although Marin is also a martial artist, at best he is Bruce Lee's level of fighting skills, or even inferior to human beings. And the martial arts of those heroes in martial arts already belong to the category of unscientific. For example, those heroes often fly around in the sky, completely inconsistent with the rules of gravity. Moreover, he can still hold a girl and fly in the sky... This makes Marin envious...

Moreover, Li Xunhuan, who was played by Jiao Enjun back then, was indeed very dashing. It is human nature to meet such a hero and learn martial arts while holding your thighs. Especially the post-80s generation like Marin who watched martial arts movies as a child. Basically, most boys born in the 1980s have a martial arts dream in their hearts.

The late 1990s was a period when martial arts were very popular. At that time, the 95 version of "The Legend of Condor Heroes", the 96 version of "Swordsman" and the 97 version of "Dragon and Babu" were all very high-quality martial arts TV series. And in the last few years of Marin's life, he was a child, and he was super obsessed with martial arts. To this end, Marin hung sandbags at home, and even learned from others to put iron sand in a broken iron pot to practice iron sand palms, and almost didn't burn his hands... Moreover, in order to practice the so-called Qinggong, Marin also tied sandbags to his legs Run……

Of course, in the end, Marin didn't develop any internal skills, and he couldn't jump over the eaves, but his fighting skills improved. After all, exercising can make you strong. When a person is strong and strong, let alone a fist, it is a savage charge, and it can knock a thin person into the air without having to do anything... Of course, the premise is that the opponent does not have a brick in his hand...

Pulling too far, the flying sky in martial arts is obviously unrealistic. Therefore, Marin needed a long time to prepare, and he had to put poison on the darts, and he had to make the darts form a "dart rain" to ensure that in the hot summer, he could kill Caesar Borgia, who was not wearing a chest plate.

Fortunately, there is still enough time. After all, there are still a few months between now and next summer, enough to recruit people and train dart rain tactics.

Then there is the need for Marin to ask his father-in-law Julius II to see if he agrees to postpone it until next summer. However, Marin doesn't think it's a big problem. Because, although Julius II hated Caesar Borgia, he was also a calm politician who knew how to forbear. Therefore, until next year to kill Caesar Borgia, he must be able to wait.

Kohler sent his cronies to Rome, Italy, with Marin's secret letter to the Pope. After sending the letter, Kohler's cronie will also be responsible for selecting personnel to form an "Assassin's Creed" killer organization in Italy.

In fact, the group of killers in Assassin's Creed is called the Brotherhood. However, the ID of the Brotherhood is not as popular as "Assassin's Creed". Also, Marin has his own bad tastes. Therefore, it was originally the name of a movie, and he used it on the killer organization.

But to put it bluntly,

This killer organization called "Assassin's Creed" is actually just a cover. Until Caesar Borgia is killed, this organization will be useless. Therefore, Marin will not pay too much attention to the operation of this organization. Even, he will deliberately expose some clues about this organization, and forge some misleading information, so as to get himself and Pope Julius II out. Moreover, the personnel responsible for the formation of the "Assassin's Creed" organization will also be the peripheral personnel of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce in Italy. These people only know that they are online, and they don't even know that they are serving the "Beihai Chamber of Commerce". In this way, even if this organization is discovered and eliminated in the future, it will not leave any evidence pointing to the North Sea Kingdom and Marin.

Moreover, Marin will also act in a play with Julius II. That is, Julius II will deliberately accuse the "Assassin's Creed" organization and list it as an illegal organization before assassinating Caesar.. Borgia, and will send Papal State officers and soldiers to pursue and suppress it. In this way, no one believes that this is related to Julius II.

...

While Marin was busy planning the assassination of Caesar Borgia, the autumn harvest work in the Grand Duchy of the North Sea was also in full swing.

However, in the Grand Duchy of Beihai, the autumn harvest work is not synchronized. The domestic provinces of East Friesland, Oldenburg, Schleswig and Nord Münster, which were long under the Malin rule, introduced new agricultural techniques and imposed incentives on crops. Early-maturing phosphate fertilizer. Therefore, the autumn harvest of rye in these old provinces is half a month earlier than the other provinces that were later merged into Beihai Kingdom, and the end is also half a month earlier.

In mid-October, when several other new provinces, like the rest of Europe, were still in full swing with their autumn harvests, the North Sea states of East Friesland, Oldenburg, Schleswig and Normins The four old provinces of Special Province have ended their autumn harvest and entered the stage of drying grains and storage.

According to statistics, the grain output of these four old provinces this year has decreased slightly, failing to reach the level of 2 billion pounds last year, but there are still 1.85 billion pounds. This is mainly due to the fact that this year's Schleswig province was hit by storms in the summer, resulting in a large reduction in the production of the fields.

But even so, the 1.85 billion pounds of grain production can scare a bunch of people to death. Because according to the retail price of one pfennig per pound of rye, the 1.85 billion pounds of rye are worth 1.85 billion pfennig, equivalent to 30.833 million gold coins...

Of course, as usual, it was impossible for Marin to sell all these grains. After all, he was also afraid that the secret of high grain yield would be leaked.

Moreover, Marin has reached a secret agreement with his nobles - temporarily stop increasing farmland and avoid hoarding more food...

That is to say, in addition to the 4 old provinces of East Friesland, Oldenburg, Schleswig and North Münster, the other 4 new provinces - Bremen, West Friesland Provinces, Jutland and South Münster, as well as the newly acquired Ruhr region, where Marin will not promote new agricultural technologies for the time being...

Why? In addition to worrying that the grain output is too large to be sold, preventing leaks is also an important reason.

After all, the current North Sea country is not enough to single out the whole of Europe. But if the secret of Beihai's high grain yield is leaked, the whole of Europe will probably force Beihai to hand over the secret of its high grain yield.

In the four old provinces of East Friesland, Oldenburg, Schleswig and North Münster, confidentiality is still very good. Marin also did a great job at the time - most of the old nobles in East Frisian were basically killed, those knights in the North Münster area were also taken away by Bishop Conrad, while Oldenburg and Schlesus were also taken away. The old nobles of Yige were all sent to Las Vegas...

Without these outsiders who may be betrayed, and when spring ploughing and fertilization will send troops to protect the manor, the secret of Beihai's high yield has not been leaked.

However, the newly added provinces were different. As Marin gradually matured politically, they no longer carried out violence against the newly conquered areas, but instead used a combination of coercion and suppression. In this way, the old nobles in some areas will not be able to clean up. Under such circumstances, the old aristocrats of Beihai Kingdom were worried that those newly recruited nobles might not be reliable. If the secret of high grain yield leaks out, it will be the end...

Therefore, during the spring ploughing this year, the old four provinces still adopted new agricultural technologies and fertilizers. The new provinces, however, did not use new agricultural technologies.

However, West Friesland is an exception. Because the province of Marin has been integrated, the former nobles of West Frisian and some Junker landlords have been exchanged for the area near the Elbe River in Bremen Province through land exchange.

Therefore, Marin can be well controlled in West Friesland at present. Therefore, Marin and the North Sea Country Noble Group reached a secret agreement - in the future, new agricultural technology will only be used in East Friesland, Oldenburg, Schleswig, North Münster, and the newly joined provinces for the time being. implemented in West Friesland. As for other provinces, the old agricultural technology is temporarily adopted and adjusted according to the situation...
