The Emperor's Rise Chapter 1806 French Landless Peasants

In Marin's view, those old fishermen who borrowed money to buy boats would basically not lose money. But it is difficult to say that those landless farmers borrowed money to buy boats. Although Marin will provide them with training services, but they can learn fishing skills, but it is difficult to master the ability to find fishing areas. This skill is often the experience of decades of old fishermen.

Therefore, many land-lost peasants who borrowed money to buy ships actually end up easily going bankrupt. Then, the family had to send a strong man to serve in Marin's Royal Navy in order to pay off the debt. Then, they will be sent to places with bad weather such as tropical rain forests for many years.

Some people may ask-why is it so complicated? Wouldn't it be possible to directly recruit landless farmers to join the Navy? It can be, but it's a bit troublesome.

First, people are not necessarily willing to participate in the Royal Navy. Moreover, since they were recruited, they must not be assigned to serve in harsh climate areas. Just as Marin arranged for young Frisian fishermen in his country to serve in tropical regions, he often had to pay much higher salaries than other regions. Otherwise, no one will go. This is almost the same as going to Tibet and other frontiers to serve as soldiers. No one is willing to go without high welfare. Even if they go forcibly, they are not convinced. It's really about to start a battle. Morale is low and it is easy to defeat the battle.

Therefore, Malinen could set up a set to let some people who have no talent for fishing owe money, and then send them to sailors in harsh climate areas. Such debtors dare not have any opinions. This era is not the era of the later generations that "the one who owes money is the uncle", because the law does not protect Renmu, especially the debtors. Therefore, the sailors who owe money can only honestly go to the regions with bad weather to serve as soldiers, and use half the salary to pay the debts.

In addition, when they first borrowed money to buy a boat to go fishing, they also considered their ability to survive at sea. Among them, the ability to stay at sea for a long time is also one of them.

A land man who has never been mixed in the sea, hastily boarded the ship as a sailor, and has been out for a few months, maybe he will be depressed and crazy in the middle of the sea. Those fishermen who have been fishing at sea for several years have no such worries and are very adaptable. In particular, when they go fishing for survival, their enthusiasm is very high, and they can adapt to long-term sea life as soon as possible.

Even if the land-lost farmers who did not find the talent for fishing spots eventually went bankrupt, it would have to wait at least a year or two later. At that time, after a long life of fishing at sea, they have long been used to living in the sea for a long time. Moreover, the manipulation of the wooden boat is no stranger. Such people do not need an adaptation period to pull into the navy, and they can teach naval warfare skills directly. As for the adaptation at sea and the control of sailing boats, when people are fishing, they lay a very solid foundation ...

Right now, Marin ’s positioning of the English and Germans is very clear-the Germans are mainly responsible for farming and land warfare (except the Frisians), and the Frisians of the English and Germans are mainly responsible for fighting. Fishing, trade and naval warfare ...

The division of labor between the two major ethnic groups is clear, and together they will constitute the most solid foundation for the future empire. Even as a landless peasant in England, Marin intends to train as a sailor and fisherman ... On the German side, the exception is the Frisian who has the tradition of fishing. Others, mainly mixed on land.

Of course, the Dutch are also Marlin ’s current source of sailors. The Dutch have a tradition of fishing, and now Prince Philip is engaged in enclosures under the guise of Marin. In the future, there must be many Dutch who have lost their land. At that time, Marin also intends to use the same tricks to deal with them-first to provide unsecured loans to let them buy fishing boats, even if they succeed, they will make money for Marin, and if they fail, they will sell to the marines who have been in Marin's hardship for 20 years ... …

...

In fact, the Dutch now speak Dutch very close to German, which is clearly different from German in later generations.

At this time, the Dutch region also belonged to the Holy Roman Empire, equivalent to a vassal of the German region. The Dutch are also a Germanic, so in this era, Dutch can communicate with German.

Of course, here is the Netherlands, not the Netherlands. Counting the entire Netherlands area, the descendant Belgian area in the south is greatly influenced by France, and the local language is somewhat closer to French, which is a little different from German.

There is a big difference between Dutch and German. After the seven provinces in the northern part of the Netherlands became independent from Spain, many residents of southern Netherlands (Belgium) moved to the seven provinces in the north because they did not like to be ruled by Spain. Dutch in later generations had a great influence. Then, Dutch is more and more like drinking German. In later generations, Dutch and German have become difficult to communicate.

But in this era, people in most parts of the Netherlands, except those who border the French, most of the people in the Netherlands can communicate smoothly with Low German.

Therefore, Marin accepts the Dutch without any problems. This is because the Dutch region does not yet have independent thinking and national consciousness, and it is only a part of the Holy Roman Empire.

In addition, the Habsburg family who ruled the Netherlands has always been close to Marin, which has led the Dutch to be close to the North Sea country, and the impression of Marin is not bad. Even the Dutch were more friendly to Marin than those of the princely states of southern Germany. Because some princes in southern Germany deliberately discredited Marin during the propaganda, which made many southern Germans have a bad impression of Marin. Instead, they were from the Netherlands. Under the influence of the Habsburg family, they had a good impression of Marin.

...

However, the group of people at the moment caused Marin a headache ...

Who are they? French!

Yes, since the harvest last fall, Marin colluded with the nobles in northeastern France to use loan sharks + steamed seeds for lending to farmers. The autumn harvest this year, as expected, most farmers did not harvest enough debt to repay during the autumn harvest. Grain, then, had to sell the land to the local nobles who lent them loan sharks ...

These nobles devoured a lot of land and wanted to turn local farmers back into their serfs. However, through this loan sharking incident, local farmers have become afraid of these black-hearted local nobles, and they dare not believe them. So, some French farmers who lost their land chose to leave their hometowns and make a living elsewhere ...

At this time, the spies who had been lurking for a long time under Marin appeared in front of the French farmers who wanted to leave their hometown ...

"Come with us, and swear in the name of God, as long as you are willing to be the serfs of our old master, you will be able to eat bread and give them clothes in the future. And, we can swear that the old masters will never force you to be you Unwilling things. By then, as long as you plant the land well, the family will be able to live well ... "

Marin's spies swear in front of those farmers who lost their land in northeastern France to solicit them. In order to win the trust of the French farmers who plan to leave their hometowns ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The spies are even willing to swear in the name of God, and even swear by the Bible to guarantee ...

In this era of Europe, no one dared to lie in the name of God and the Bible. As a result, many French farmers chose to believe them. Moreover, these spies did not lie. Really become a serf of Marin, and his life is absolutely first-class among European farmers.

It's just that the difficult problem before Marin is how to bring a large number of French farmers back to the North Sea ...

You know, these French farmers who have annexed the land are easy to recruit, but the number is large. If you want to bring them back to the North Sea, it will have a huge impact. Because, its total number, there are already tens of thousands ...

The French are not stupid. Hundreds of thousands, as long as they are taken away in batches, are not noticeable. However, the migration of tens of thousands of people can be noticed as long as they are not fools. So, what Marin needs to solve right now is how to get these tens of thousands of French farmers back home without angering the French. Moreover, these tens of thousands are only the first batch. This is because there are an estimated two or three hundred thousand people who lost their land in France this time. If you recruit again, it is estimated that there will be more people. But the first batch of tens of thousands of people is enough for Marin to have a headache. Recruitment is expected to anger France ...
