Chapter 1738 Robinson's Death

Although doing this is a bit unethical, Marin is not afraid of revealing his flaws. This is not later generations, there are so many powerful paparazzi who can reveal many secrets. In this era when information dissemination is extremely underdeveloped, it is still difficult to disclose confidential information as long as you don’t use people who are too unreliable.
In this era, there were no paparazzi as powerful as Zhuo, and there were no professional spies in other countries, only spies in the primitive stage similar to spies. It was difficult to find out this secret.
Therefore, Marin could safely send someone to help French landlord Laocai cheat French farmers while sending people to pretend to be good people to help those cheated farmers receive land reclamation from North America, and also gain their gratitude...
Of course, Marin was also confident that those French farmers who were cheated became their loyalty in the future. Not to mention anything else, when they arrived in North America, they would no longer have to worry about food and drink.
Marin remembers that in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, farmers in the "Old World" of Europe, including farmers in wealthy countries such as Britain and France, could only use black bread and potatoes as staple food. At that time, ordinary Americans could already eat wheat bread made of white flour.
There is no way, the natural conditions in North America are too good. People have few people and many lands, not fertile riverside land, and people don’t bother to cultivate. There are so many wheat and other fields in the fields. Moreover, there are many cattle in the United States. Therefore, when the citizens of Britain, France and Germany, such as Britain, France and Germany, were still eating black stick bread and potatoes, ordinary Americans already had wheat bread and often could eat beef...
During the First World War, American soldiers vomited canned beef and even threw away canned beef. Although the British soldiers, although they were known as the world's most powerful country, were not so luxurious. During the day, they secretly picked up the canned beef thrown away by American soldiers to eat...
In short, as long as you immigrate to the North American continent, especially the most fertile areas in later generations of the United States, you will not have to worry about food in the future.
These French farmers may be difficult to eat black baguettes in France, but in North America, Marin can definitely guarantee that they can have enough black bread every time. Moreover, it is pure bread without soil and stones. Then, the Newfoundland fishery can also provide enough salted fish. If you raise some Taihu pigs, cattle and sheep, you will not lack meat in the future.
After living a good life of good food and clothing, how could they not support Marin? Even if they knew that Marin had cheated them, they would not blame Marin for the sake of good food and clothing...
...
In fact, those who were willing to immigrate to America in their early years were either exiled, pagans, or people who could not make a living in their hometown. If they lived well in their hometown, who would be willing to leave their hometown and make a living overseas?
Why was the UK able to develop the thirteen North American states? It was not because of the large-scale land enclosure movement in China that many farmers lost their land and had to make a living overseas? In addition, they were exiled and Puritans. They could not survive in China and could only go to North America to survive.
France is different from Britain. French society has always been very stable and its natural conditions are better than Britain. In addition, there is no such scam as land enclosure movement in China, French farmers naturally refuse to move out casually.
Therefore, although it has the largest population in Europe, France's development of overseas colonies is very bad, and it can only rely on the black slaves I bought to develop the colonies.
It sounds ridiculous, but the reality is that. Britain's land enclosure movement caused Britain to develop North America and Australia because of the land enclosure movement. If there was no land enclosure movement, there would probably be no later Americans and Canada. Because if there were not enough British people to immigrate to North America, North America would probably become a black world, just like the French colonies Haiti and Guadeloupe, which would become a mostly black area in later generations...
Another major source of immigration to the United States in later generations was the German region. The German region was lagging behind for a long time and it was not until the late 19th century that a unified country was formed and began to develop rapidly. But before that, the German region was a fragmented war-torn and poor region. In the 19th century, Bremen Port alone exported millions of German immigrants to North America. There was no way, Germany was too poor at that time. If there was no introduction of potatoes, many people would probably starve to death in the German region...
There is also Ireland, because of the great famine in the mid-19th century, millions of people were starved to death, and millions of Irish people immigrated to the United States after the great famine. Then, when the Pacific Railway was built, the workers the United States relied on were mainly Irish railway workers composed of Chinese workers and Irish immigrants. It is said that Chinese workers were also engaged in a speed competition for railway construction with Irish workers at that time. Then, Chinese workers won...

Marin wanted to use the Germans and the English to develop North America, but the Germans and England had a small population!
Even if Austria and Bohemia are added, the population of Germany is only 12 million. One-six of them have been obtained by Marin, which is more than 2 million.
However, this is not enough for people to develop such a huge North American population. What's more, these more than 2 million people have to develop local people, and only some people can immigrate to develop North America.
England is also very sad. Because England has only 3 million people, which is more than the North Sea. Scotland is so big, with a population of only 500,000, and Ireland has a population of only 250,000, with only 250,000 people. These populations can only immigrate to North America. How can it be enough?
Even if the Russians who started to attack Ukraine and the Grand Principal of Moscow were limited in number.
As a last resort, Marin thought of joining the French landlord Lao Cai to cheat French farmers together, and then tricked the cheated French farmers to North America for development.
After all, France lacks everything in this era, but it is not short of people...

France was targeted by Marin, but the French did not know at this time that they were busy dealing with the Calais Fortress.
After April, Queen Mother Anne showed no sign of pregnancy. In other words, the possibility of expecting Queen Mother Anne gave birth to a prince was gone, and François I's throne was finally stable.
But this was just the beginning, because François I would gather the nobles and soldiers of the country next. After all, his throne had just been stabilized and had not had time to control the country. Moreover, there were some stubborn oppositions that he also needed to clear out...
At this critical moment, François I did not want to offend England. Therefore, François I agreed to Edward's request to send Deputy Foreign Minister Baron Robinson to the Fortress of Calais to appease England in the city. Anyway, he did not let the English intervene in the investigation of the case. Moreover, Marquis, the former English Baron who had defected to France, also guaranteed Robinson to confirm that he was "his own person" and would not find fault with the Kingdom of France...
However, he did not expect that England did not send Robinson to find fault at all, but...
After Robinson was allowed to land at Port Calais, he was warmly welcomed by General Moreno, the chief officer of France at the Fortress of Calais.
Robinson was not here to find fault, and Edward did not force him to find fault. So, both sides were guests and guests, and had enough drinks.
The next day, Robinson was ordered to appease the Englishmen in the city, and nothing happened. However, on the third night, Robinson returned from the banquet at the Governor's House of Calais Fortress. When the carriage passed an alley, several thugs suddenly rushed out. They shouted "Kill the British!" in French and rushed towards the carriage that Robinson was riding...
It is interesting that the four royal guards responsible for protecting Robinson were all on the other side of the carriage. When the thugs rushed out, they were stunned for a while before they pulled out the knight's sword and walked around from the other side of the carriage. But when they walked around, the thugs had already succeeded and quickly escaped from the alley. When several guards went to chase, many debris had been thrown in the alley, hindering their way forward.
