As for the question of whether the Ming Empire will erupt after obtaining the Dexing Copper Mine, Marin did not care. Because, the general trend of the Daming Civil Service Group has become a reality. With their constraints, the Ming Empire wanted to expand overseas, and the difficulty was not that great.

Even the warlike Zhengde Emperor, his eyes are more on the northern Mongolia. Without destroying the Mongolian ministries, it was impossible for the Ming Empire to set its sights on the ocean.

Moreover, Ma Limin would particularly like to thank Liu Daxia for his “faithful loyal officials”. It was his existence that made the Ming Dynasty lose its chance to compete with the West for the ocean.

If he is a Chinese person in this life, Marin will naturally hate him as a "loyal minister" who "does bad things kindly". But now that Marin is the monarch of the North Sea Kingdom, his **** is different, and his head position has changed. Although he was still sighing in his heart, Marin still wanted to thank Lao Liu for his contribution. This kind of psychology is very strange. There are both "exasperation" against China's loss of sea power, and relief from the Daming Empire's raptor being restrained by itself ... No way, who makes Marin a traversal of China's soul? ...

As long as there is an "always loyal minister" like Liu Daxia, Marin can stop worrying about the Ming Dynasty going to the sea to grab his job.

As for the problem of making the Ming Dynasty rich after the explosion of the Dexing copper mine, Marin was not worried. Because the greedy civil servant group, after seeing the huge benefits of the copper mine, will certainly reach out in disorder. At that time, even if the copper mine can produce a large amount of copper money, how much can fall into the treasury is still a question mark ...

But it is undeniable that as long as the Ming Dynasty developed the Dexing Copper Mine, while alleviating the crisis of copper shortage and casting money, it must bear Marlin's sentiment. Moreover, it is a great relationship.

You should know that the problem of lack of money has always been the first problem of the feudal dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, because of lack of money, even began to cast money with iron. There is no way, the social economy is too developed, the money is not enough. If anyone can help solve the problem of money shortage, in which country, they are all first-class heroes.

So, after sending out a tune telling the location of the Dexing Copper Mine, Marin began to think-by that time, what benefit should he ask the Daming court ...

"Well, I only sell 100,000 catties of saltpeter to me every year. It's too stingy, so I have to increase the quantity ..."

"There is also mercury, which is very important for the development of gold and silver mines, and it needs to be purchased in large quantities every year ..."

"Purchase of cheap copper in large quantities is basic, this must have ..."

...

Marin's performance was for Kong Tai to be sent directly to the cabinet of Daming, but not directly to Zhengde. In fact, it is two different things to give the concert to Zhengde.

If Dexing Copper Mine is handed over to Zhengde, then Zhengde will definitely swallow the copper mine as royal private. By then, Emperor Neiku will not be short of money, and Emperor Ming will have a greater right to speak. At that time, the cabinet must bow to the emperor. Because they need copper to make money. Moreover, Zhengde had the Dexing Copper Mine, and it also had the capital to form a strong army. Perhaps the empire of the Ming Dynasty is prosperous.

But this is not what Marin wants to see ...

If he was reborn as a literati in the Ming dynasty, Marin will definitely dedicate the copper mine to Zhengde as a source of strong capital for the Ming empire.

However, the **** decides the head. Since Marin was reborn as the European monarch, he naturally does not want to see the Ming Empire military being too strong. Therefore, don't even think about giving the copper mine to Zhengde.

It is completely different to pass the performance directly to the cabinet of Daming ...

The cabinet is the highest representative of the Daming Civil Service Group. As long as the performance falls into the hands of the cabinet, while the achievements of the cabinet are completed, the dominance of the copper mine will certainly be controlled by the cabinet.

If Liu Jin is still present, this copper mine will be donated and may be robbed by the inner court as a purse of Zhengde. However, the powerful Liu Jin has fallen, and the other members of the "Eight Tigers" can't help the wall and can't fight against the powerful Daming Civil Service Group. At that time, the control of this huge copper mine will definitely fall into the hands of the civil servant group.

Then, the consequence is that the civil service group is stronger. Under layers of exploitation, not too many will end up in the Daming Treasury. At the same time, after mastering the money bag, when the Civil Service Group competes with Zhengde, it is more confident ...

Therefore, giving the virtuous copper mine to the emperor or the cabinet is completely two kinds of consequences. Out of self-interest considerations, Marin finally chose to hand over the Dexing Copper Mine to Daming Cabinet, a representative of the Ming Civil Service Group. In this way, it can also be exchanged for the favor of the Civil Service Group.

Moreover, Emperor Zhengde could not say anything. Because, through the cabinet, the act is to act in accordance with the rules. It is not compliant to directly close to Zhengde.

In addition, if Marin went directly to Zhengde and dedicated the Dexing Copper Mine to Emperor Zhengde, it would definitely offend the Daming Civil Service Group. Literati's eyes are very small, God knows how they will retaliate against themselves in the future.

What's more, Marin knows history well, knows that Zhengde Emperor has no future, and died early. Once Zhengde hiccups, his private devotion of the Dexing Copper Mine to the Emperor will definitely attract crazy revenge from the Civil Service Group.

Therefore, it is the best choice to send the Dexing Copper Mine to Daming Civil Service Group, either from its own interests or from the future.

In addition to the formal performances, Marin also privately wrote a private letter to Daming's first assistant Yang Tinghe and others, informing the importance of Dexing Copper Mine.

Yang Tinghe is a gentleman, but he is also a civil servant. In his letter, Marin introduced him in detail about the reserves and significance of the Dexing Copper Mine and told him that who had control of the Dexing Copper Mine took control of the Ming Dynasty money bag. Presumably, with Yang Tinghe's wisdom, he would not know what to do. Moreover, Marin also wrote private letters to other civil servants. As long as these people are not stupid, they will definitely intervene in the Dexing Copper Mine. As long as the Dexing Copper Mine is controlled by the Civil Service Group, Marin will rest assured ...

As for Zhengde? Well, I sent a few more Napoleon cannons over to let the bear kid play with cannons. Goods without a son are not worth long-term investment ...

...

While the private letters were written at Marin's desk, Schwartz, the vice-principal of the "American Royal West Point Military Academy" ran over to discuss with Marin whether to increase the Naval Academy at the Royal West Point Military Academy ...

Today's Royal West Point Military Academy is a spin-off from Aurich University, with only the Army Department. These include several items such as the Infantry Division, Cavalry Division, Artillery Division, Engineering Division, and Logistics Division.

However, the United Kingdom is far away from overseas, so Schwartz, as the executive vice president, felt that he should add naval subjects to the Royal West Point Military Academy. After all, to control the Americas, the Navy is essential.

However, at present, the training of naval officers in the North Sea is placed in the captain's school and is trained together with ordinary captains. Schwartz believes that this is not good. Because the quality of the members of the captain's school is uneven. Some captains lack the courage to fight and are not suitable for naval officers.

Therefore, when he came to Marin this time, he wanted to suggest Marin to add naval subjects in West Point Military Academy. At the same time, from the captain's school, select the courageous students to enter the Royal West Point Military Academy for further training. As for the captain ’s school, naval warfare projects are appropriately reduced. Especially in artillery practice, Schwartz felt a little wasted. For those captains who lack courage, being a commercial ship captain is enough, there is no need to receive too much naval combat training, especially live-fire naval training. After all, the cost of firing a gun is very large, and there is no need to waste it on the captains who are not naval officers. You know, if a round of platoons is shot down, it is tens of hundreds of pounds of gunpowder, and the cost is very high.

Marin listened to Schwartz's report and found it reasonable. After all, not every captain is brave and belligerent. For those ordinary captains, it is indeed a waste to conduct naval combat live ammunition training. It suffices to equip armed merchant ships with several gunners eliminated from the Naval Artillery Division. Moreover, armed merchant ships only need to be equipped with small caliber artillery. For example, a 12-pound Napoleon gun is sufficient, and it is not necessary to equip merchant ships with large-caliber guns. Unless, it is a military vessel. You know, the main artillery of the Portuguese battleship is also a 12-pound gun. Equipping ordinary commercial ships with several 12-pound guns, the firepower is enough. As for the naval battle command of those ordinary captain students, Marin thinks it is still necessary. After all, merchant ships may also encounter pirates. However, live drills and the like are not necessary. At that time, you only need to simulate the scene, but do not do real drills. Even if it is done, it can be a symbolic shot. Only navy captains need to conduct further actual combat exercises,

When signing, seeing the word "Royal" at the "Royal West Point Military Academy" on the document, Marin suddenly moved his heart and said to Schwartz:

"Schwartz ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ You said, how would I reorganize the North Sea Fleet into the" Royal Navy "?"

At this time, Marin remembered the famous British "Royal Navy", which was the maritime hegemon who had dominated the ocean for two hundred years. Now that the title "Royal" has been applied, why not make the cottage more thorough, and even give the cottage the name "Royal Navy"?

You should know that the genuine "Royal Navy" will not be established until Charles II takes the throne in 1660. That is to say, Marin now has a "royal navy" and becomes a genuine "royal navy".

Moreover, in the future, Marin will also control England. Big deal, share the name "Royal Navy" with England. Anyway, Marin intends to recruit a lot of sailors in England in the future, and the "Royal Navy" has no shortage of English elements ...

In fact, this is also a kind of helplessness. Who makes most Germans dry ducks? The Frisians, the only ethnic group in Germany, are too few, only 100,000 people. The fishermen and sailors add up to tens of thousands, which is really not enough for Marin.

Therefore, if you want to build a powerful "royal navy" that can dominate the ocean like the original, you really have to go to England to recruit sailors. Otherwise, people are not enough.
