There are still a lot of good things for the third brother, not only zebu cow, but also pepper, but it has been popular in Europe for thousands of years, and it has become a luxury since the time of the Roman Empire.

Of course, Marlin doesn't look down on pepper. In his eyes, pepper is just an ordinary seasoning. The only things that can get into his eyes are probably Mawarima, Uzi steel and other more strategic things. At the same time, there are saltpeters from India, etc.

But Marin is already developing Chilean saltpeter, and will soon be able to buy saltpeter from the Ming Dynasty, and Indian saltpeter is not important. However, Mawarima and Uzi steel are also good things.

Needless to say, Uzi steel is a good thing to build a Damascus scimitar, an absolute strategic material. When Napoleon conquered Egypt, the soldiers, after winning the battle, frantically snatched the Damascus scimitars worn by the officers of the Egyptian army, which showed its preciousness. After all, these people don't even grab gold and silver, they grab the Damascus scimitar first, it must be because the scimitar is more expensive than gold and gold. Of course, in addition to the good quality of the knife, there is also the reason why the knife is decorated with jewelry.

The Mawari horse is also one of the few excellent war horses adapted to the tropical climate, and it is also the mount of the elite Mamluk cavalry. The Mamluk Dynasty of Egypt controlled some of the Arab horse production areas, and actually used the Indian Mawari horse as the mount of the cavalry of the forbidden army, which shows that the Mawari horse is not necessarily worse than the Arab horse. At least, absolutely not bad for military use. Moreover, it is particularly adapted to the tropical climate, which is very precious.

Therefore, these good things, Marlin has to buy them in large quantities. Later, in the tropical colony of Marin, the serfs harnessed the zebu cattle to plough the land, while the warriors rode the horses to fight......

That's for later, though. Marin plans to renovate dozens of ships specifically used to transport livestock, and go to India to buy large quantities of zebu cattle and Mawari horses, as well as Uzi steel to make treasure knives.

But for now, what Ma Lin wants to do is to rush to the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible to satisfy his curiosity......

……

As a Chinese soul, to say that you are not curious about ancient China is absolutely false. If you can't see it in modern times, it's just that, now that you have crossed over, how can you not take a look?

As for going to see the emperor of the Ming Dynasty three times and nine bows, Ma Lin didn't mind. He is not a second-year young protagonist with the halo of the protagonist in cultivating immortals, he doesn't need any "strong heart", and he doesn't care about "a man has gold under his knees".

Marin believes that those who believe in "gold under a man's knees" are indeed real men and are admirable. However, most of such people often die halfway to success because their personalities are too upright. Because, when you don't have the strength, it's not a good thing to still have so strong self-esteem, which is the so-called "just over easy to break". If you die prematurely on the road to success, how can you talk about success? Only the protagonist in it, the son of the plane or something, can not only keep his dignity, but also save his life.

For example, Goujian, the king of Yue, if he hadn't been cowardly in the early stage, he would have been killed by Wu Guo a long time ago, where would there be a chance to turn the tables later? Liu Bang's parents were caught by Xiang Yu, and they could only be deliberately shameless, otherwise it would have been over.

The last thing a real emperor can ask for is face. The emperors who want to face are all graves with grass, such as Chongzhen...... Of course, that's when you meet someone better than you to be shameless. When you meet someone weaker than you, you dare not to give face and decisively kill you...... Especially civilians, if they dare not give face, they will kill the whole family if they say that they will kill the whole family......

……

Moreover, Ma Lin didn't think there was anything wrong with giving the Ming Dynasty emperor three kowtows and nine bows. After all, Marin is the soul of hundreds of years later, and kowtowing to these ancients should be regarded as a sacrifice to the ancestors.

Besides, those star actors in later generations, don't they kneel when they kneel and cry when they cry? It's just like acting in a costume drama. Moreover, Marin was able to get great benefits from the Ming Dynasty. Bending over for the sake of benefits, there's nothing wrong with that. In later generations, many women who did sales, such as selling houses, slept with customers in order to get orders. For the sake of profit, people will always do whatever it takes.

As for the heart of a strong man in Xianxia and fantasy? I'm sorry, but Ma Lin doesn't know immortal arts, and he doesn't have any hope of becoming an immortal emperor, so naturally he doesn't need that thing......

What's more, cultivating immortals or something is nonsense. As for the heart of a strong man, it is even more nonsense. Haven't you seen the online writers who made up these concepts such as "the heart of the strong", kneeling there every day and begging for a monthly pass? The online writers are the most shameless, they themselves kneel and beg every day, they have no face and no skin, can they believe what "strong heart" they are fooling around? In his previous life, Ma Lin saw a street fighter named "Taishang Lao Niu", but because he couldn't pull his face and knelt down less times, he almost starved to death because he couldn't pull his face and knelt down less times, so his tickets and subscriptions were not ideal, and he almost starved to death......

……

However, thinking that Zhu Houzhao, a bear child, is only 18 years old this year, and he is 30 years old, it is really shameless to kneel for him......

"Whatever, I'll just act in a costume play. Well, I'm an actor......" Thinking of the experience of running around Hengdian with friends for a period of time because of fun in his previous life, Marin hypnotized himself and hinted......

……

After leaving Grenada, Marin's ship headed west, soon to the Bay of Colón, Panama. Marin and his crew then abandoned ship and went ashore on horseback to Panama City, at the other end of the Isthmus of Panama. Moreover, the team was accompanied by hundreds of solar stoves, as well as slaves and camels bought by Egypt.

Along the way, the guide who led the group told Marin that the pyrethrum and wormwood planted on both sides of the road are very harmful to mosquitoes. Since the planting of these two plants, Panama's poisonous mosquitoes and insects have been afraid to approach the road. When Gaudard first came to Panama with his people, many people were killed by these poisonous mosquitoes and insects.

……

After arriving in Panama City, Marin found that the previous 10 warships had arrived for some time and were waiting for him. And Ghoillard, the governor of Panama, and the bald Aben, both warmly welcomed Marin's arrival.

However, there is a problem in front of Marin, and that is - there seem to be two governors in Panama......

Previously, Marin had sent Gaulard to the Bay of Colón, Panama, to begin construction of a road across the Isthmus of Panama to the Pacific Ocean, and appointed him governor at the same time.

Later, however, Marin arranged for the bald Aben to lead a fleet around Tierra del Fuego and go to Panama City to build Panama City. At the same time, Aben was also appointed governor.

When the road was opened, an embarrassing thing happened - two governors of Panama appeared......

For example, this time, when welcoming Marin, Ghoillard and the bald Aben stood side by side to welcome Marin. Moreover, both of them seemed to look a little embarrassed...... After all, Marin also did not stipulate who was in a high position and who was in a low position. So, the two can only stand side by side.

But this will not work, after all, one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and one country cannot tolerate two masters. Therefore, after the welcome banquet, Marin still ordered that Ben should go south with several ships to the island of Santa Maria off the coast of Chile to serve as the governor of Chile.

It just so happened that Marin was planning to develop a Chilean saltpeter mine. But after development, there is a high demand for fresh water, and food supplies are also needed. Therefore, Marin asked Ben to take a foothold on the island of Santa Maria with a group of reliable sailors, and then plot to occupy the estuary area on land a little north, build a cement city, and control and develop the surrounding area as a base for providing fresh water and food to the northern desert.

Along with Ben went south, along with a group of reliable sailors transferred from the mainland, a group of solar stoves that distilled and desalinated seawater, and a group of Egyptian slaves and Egyptian camels that he bought. They went to Iquique to establish a base and needed to investigate and develop saltpeter in the desert of northern Chile......

With these things in place, Marin began to prepare for the departure. Before leaving, Marin ordered sweet potatoes, peanuts and peppers to be carried to the ship. These are all agricultural products that have been widely cultivated in the local area, and Ma Lin intends to supply them nearby, just in time to bring them to the Ming Dynasty to present to the Ming court in exchange for trade qualifications.

But when moving sweet potatoes, Gaulard also ordered a lot of seeds to be brought onto the ship. Marin was not impressed by the seed, so he asked:

"What's this?"

"Sweet potato seeds!" Ghoillard wondered.

"What? Do sweet potatoes also have seeds? "As a rural child in a previous life, Marin felt that his brain was not enough. Because, in their previous life, their family seemed to grow sweet potatoes with sprouted sweet potatoes cut into pieces, and they never used any sweet potato seeds...... (https:)
