The next morning, Marin climbed up from Felice's bed with a refreshing spirit. Behind him, Felice, who was still in the quilt, stretched and said in a terrible voice:
"Director Ma, are you going to talk about the script tonight? I have many questions to ask you!"
Marlin's heart was swayed, but after thinking about it, he refused:
"Not tonight. If you don't go back to the main room, Angela will get angry. Let's do this. In two days, I'll come to you tonight and tell you the key points of a bed and play, and also demonstrate it to you personally. At that time, you must listen carefully..."
"Ah, Director Ma, I like the most about bed scenes. At that time, you must 'guided' me well! I will not only listen carefully, but also do it well!" Felice understood the meaning of Marin's words, because the two of them had been playing role-playing "director and 'motivated' actress" some time ago, and they had already figured out the way Marin spoke.
"Haha!" Marin tightened his belt and went for breakfast.
Because he "exploded a lot of energy and essence to the script" with Felice last night, early in the morning, Malin asked the imperial chef to make a large bowl of waist noodles to repair his waist.
After a while, Caesar came to have breakfast too. Marin frowned when he saw it, and said dissatisfied:
"Boy, keep the key points steady, walk when you walk, what do you look like when you jump? Are you a rabbit?"
Little Caesar was scolded and was very depressed. However, the little guy suddenly remembered something and asked Marin:
"Dad, why didn't you go to your mother's room last night? I slept with my mother last night. When I was sleeping, my mother kept calling you a bad guy and a big radish. Why? What's the big radish?"
Marlin's face suddenly froze. At this time, Angela happened to come to the restaurant and happened to hear Caesar's naive words. Then Angela couldn't help laughing:
"Hahaha……"
Marin glared at Angela with dissatisfaction and said:
"Don't talk nonsense in front of the child!"
"I'm right!" Angela said indifferently. Moreover, she kissed Caesar like a reward.
Marin looked embarrassed, but his eyes rolled, and he blurted out immediately with a broken excuse:
"I'm not for this family? You know, only by taking your sister away can your father's resources be tilted to me. Otherwise, he might not have put so much effort into helping me with multiple sons-in-law!"
Marin said this correctly, and it cannot be regarded as an excuse. After hearing this, Angela suddenly became silent, then lowered her head and started to have breakfast silently.
Because Marin was right, although Fellis shared her husband with her, but therefore, her father's resources would be concentrated on Marin. If Fellis married someone else, or even a great Italian noble, she would probably share half of the available resources as the Pope's father. After all, if Fellis married into Italy, it would be much closer to her father and easier to obtain resources.
In this situation, although Felice competes for her husband with her, she is a genuine wife and the children she gives birth to have the right to orthodox inheritance. Felice's children can only be considered illegitimate children and are not qualified to compete with her children for resources. Speaking of which, Felice is still losing a lot.
Felice did have a big loss, but Marin promised to support Robert's campaign for the Pope in the future and let his second son Mario (Ma Yun's German name) be the hereditary lord of Taiwan. Otherwise, with Felice's desire to take advantage, he would definitely not be willing to give up.
...
In faraway West Africa, two merchant ships flying the flag of the Duke of Coimbra family arrived on a small island and reef located in the south of the Cape Verde Peninsula, where the later Senegal capital Dakar, was located.
This small island is called Gore Island, and it is the earliest stronghold of the Portuguese on the coast of Senegal. At present, it is also the only stronghold of the Portuguese in Senegal. This is because the Senegal grassland area has no gold resources (actually not discovered yet), and there is a lack of cooperative black slave suppliers. The most popular resources in the local area are ivory and rhinoceros horns, so the Portuguese have no big demand here, only a small base in Gore Island, which often sends ships to trade with local indigenous people on land.
Originally, this small island belonged to a small Portuguese aristocratic family named Sereu. This small family maintained a small business by purchasing local indigenous ivory and rhinoceros horns along the coast of Senegal.
But Gore Island has a major flaw - this island is a miniature island without freshwater resources. This has led to the difficulty of drinking water for the island's colonists and they need to send boats to the estuary of the land-based Freshwater River to get water. But this is too troublesome, resulting in few colonists who can survive on the island. The business of ivory and rhinoceros horns is not so easy to do. Because the locals lack the means to hunt elephants and rhinoceros, and can only rely on the method of obtaining ivory and rhinoceros corpses of dead elephants and rhinoceros to maintain it. Therefore, the trade volume here is not large, and there are no big families to compete.
But after Marin and the Duke of Coimbra discussed the establishment of a joint venture, Jorge de Rencaster decisively registered a "Senegal Fur Company" in Portugal. The company needs a place to settle down. Although Gore Island is small and does not have freshwater resources, it is currently the most suitable place to settle down.
So, Jorge de Renkastre, Duke of Coimbra, sent people to find the patriarch of the Sereu family, and through exchange of interests (to divert some interests from other places), they obtained control of the island of Gore and the concession for trade with the Senegal region.
Then, Marin, who received the news, naturally sent two ships to the pre-stop of Gore Island to prepare to establish the "Senegal Fur Company". Of course, Marin's people worked in the name of Jorge de Renkastre, Duke of Coimbra.
After the two ships arrived on Gore Island, they handed over to the people of the Sereu family. In order to facilitate communication with the indigenous people, the other party also left behind two translators who knew the local indigenous languages.
After the Sereu family members were withdrawn, Eschweiin, the person in charge of the acquisition of rhino leather, ordered the workers who came with the ship to start rebuilding the dock.
Why do we need to renovate the dock? This is because the wooden boats moored at the pier in the pure seawater area are seriously damaged by sea maggots. Because they do not have the function of automatically expelling sea maggots in the freshwater area, the boats moored at the pier in the pure seawater area are inevitably troubled by sea maggots - the wood at the bottom of the ship is gnawed hard by sea maggots...
Therefore, the merchant ships of the Sereu family did not moor here for a long time. The ones who moored here for a long time were small and medium-sized ships responsible for traveling between the islands and the mainland. After all, people on the island must use ships if they want to go to land to obtain fresh water and cargo.
However, in this way, these small and medium-sized boats have been damaged by sea maggots for a long time, and the ships are very damaged. Every few months, small and medium-sized boats on the island will be taken away by large ships coming and going for overhaul (replace the wooden boards at the bottom of the ship) and sent to the repaired boats.
