Chapter 1545: Fugger family
Can exile also entrust other monarchs to help? Isn't it a joke? The princes who heard the news nearby gathered first to discuss this issue. Many princes who are hostile to Marin believe that-where is this "substitution for exile", it is clearly human trafficking. Moreover, the traffickers are still Catholics.
Therefore, some princes prepared to jointly write a letter to the Holy See, accusing the Grand Duke Marin of the North Sea State of "human trafficking", which is contrary to the provisions of the Holy See, and should be expelled from the church ...
However, who is Marin? The pope's son-in-law! Would he not be prepared? Just a few days after the joint statement was issued, the Holy See ’s instructions came down — allowing the North Sea State to exile mobs from other countries. At the same time, it is particularly emphasized that attempts to harm nobles are illegal, and it is a crime to be exiled. But at the same time, the Holy See also stated that if it is not necessary, it is better not to slaughter the people. If you encounter a rebellion, try to kill only the first evil, and the followers will be exiled at most ...
As soon as this instruction came out, many German princes suddenly said nothing. After all, the Holy See, who has the most authority to manage this matter, does not care, what qualifications do they have? However, some princes proposed-hoping to supervise this exile, so as to prevent the Beihai State from enriching these exiled populations to the Beihai country's homeland and enhance its strength.
And Marin is also very clever, and soon announced publicly-that these "mob" and their family, he will not stay in the country, all sent to the Americas ... Ab, is a wild continent. Moreover, he welcomed the representatives of various countries to Emden port to supervise the embarrassing "mob" boarding ...
At the same time, he explained to the countries that the indigenous people of the wild continent were too fierce, and the ordinary people of the North Sea country refused to go to the dangerous land, so they had to find these mobs who dared to rebel against the lord ... These people were just dogged , Just sent to fight for the territories with the wild savages ...
Then, for each country representative who came to the question, Marin gave away a copy of "Rushing Out of Amazon", which was just finished. His meaning is obvious-you see, the wild continent is so dangerous, it is not a beautiful thing for me to send them ... what? You said I used these exiles to cultivate fertile soil? Then they must all survive ...
Through a series of diplomatic activities and book donations, the question gradually subsided. Moreover, this very realistic "Rushing Out of Amazon" also set off a boom in Germany. This book tells the Germans a "reason"-"the outside world is really dangerous"!
"It seems that this exile is really a terrible punishment!" After reading this book, many nobles thought of it secretly. Moreover, the 21 survivors of this book openly swear in the name of God-their experiences are true ...
In this way, readers must not believe it. After all, no one dared to lie in the name of God this year. It's just that they didn't know that these 21 people went to the most dangerous area of the American continent. Although not lying, the situation in the Amazon region does not represent the entire America ...
In order to strengthen the persuasion, Marin also sent these 21 people to open platforms in big cities such as Hamburg and Lübeck to sign books for sale. And, publicly make oaths again and again-I have never lied.
Of course, when someone asked them about the situation outside the Amazon forest, these 21 people all answered in a vague tone like "never visited, don't know", or "probably the same way" In this way, it does not count against the oath. Anyway, they swear just to say that their experience is true, and they do n’t swear that America is so dangerous ...
...
And no matter how this book-selling team is fooling everyone, Marin is also worried at this time ...
Ulrich, Duke of Württemberg, demanded that all be paid in cash, which made Marin in trouble. Because the cash flow of the Beihai State Treasury is a little lacking.
If the Duke Ulrich was willing to recognize the copper coins issued by the North Sea State, it would be no problem, the amount of 1 million Gulden gold coins can still be made up.
The problem is that the copper coins issued by the Beihai State are not recognized by other German states, and only recognize gold and silver coins, which makes Marin worry.
Now, Marin only has gold and silver currencies worth 500,000 or 600,000 Gulden coins, and the cash gap is close to half. However, it is now April. It is foreseeable that once the spring cultivation is over, the Duke Ulrich should start. If you do n’t get 1 million cash, you may delay the transaction. If the Duke Ulrich changed his mind at that time, it would be more than worth it.
Therefore, Marin hopes to make up the money as soon as possible to complete the transaction, so as to avoid long nights.
For a moment, Marin wanted to lead the army to the Aztec empire in Mexico to make a robbery to get enough gold and silver. However, Marin counted, this time is estimated to be half a year. Counting the war time to conquer the Aztec empire, it is estimated that it will take longer and it will be too late.
Moreover, once he was robbed from the Aztec Empire to a large amount of gold and silver, it was easy to alarm other European countries. Before the development of large battleships and Peksang artillery, he is better not to be so good ...
So, he thought of borrowing money ...
This era ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Although most nobles in Europe are very poor, there are still a lot of rich people. For example, the Hanseatic merchants of the Hanseatic League in the German region. Also, the economic oligarchs in southern Germany. For example, the Fugel family, the richest man in Germany. In addition, there are economic centers such as Venice and Florence in Italy.
Originally, the Siena Bank under Marin's name was able to get the money. Unfortunately, last year the Bank of Siena gave Maximilian I another 300,000 loan. Coupled with several other large loans, and long-term loans, resulting in a lack of cash flow in Siena Bank. Therefore, Marin, who was a banker, can only borrow money from others.
In the beginning, Marin considered the big merchants of the Hanseatic League as political allies. However, with a little touch, Marin gave up.
Why? This is because the bankers of the Hanseatic League have requested to enter the North Sea country to do business. But the business within Beihai is now monopolized by the Beihai Chamber of Commerce, so Marin is not happy. It was not that he was reluctant to make profits from that business, but that he was worried about the Hansa merchants who went deep into the inland cities of the North Sea to investigate agricultural secrets. After all, it is a bit difficult for them to take root in the North Sea country and want to keep agricultural technology secret. Therefore, in order to maintain confidentiality, Marin had to refuse the requests of the Hanseatic merchants who entered the North Sea. His opinion is as always-want to do business? It is only allowed to enter several ports such as Emden port, and it is not allowed to go deep into the inland area ...
Then, Marin can only choose the Fugger family or Venice in Italy ...
But Marin was afraid of similar requests from Venetian merchants like the Hanseatic League, so he thought about it and decided to borrow money from the Fugel family ...
