Chapter 63: A Small Ball

With mixed feelings, Marin returned to the palace of Aurich and decided to visit his precious son. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 However, when he went to the backyard of the palace and saw his son, Marin was directly depressed......

Because, Marin's son who wants to be the hegemon of Europe in the future is crawling around on the carpet like a puppy. What's even more infuriating is that Felis, the little aunt, is teasing little Caesar with a red ball. It felt like walking a dog......

"Damn it...... "Marin is upset, my son went to Caesar's such a domineering name, and you actually walked him as a puppy, isn't it a serious reduction in the force?"

So, seeing that there were only Angela, Felice and Caesar at the scene, and no outsiders were present, Marin strode forward and directly caught Felis, who was still teasing little Caesar, and hit Felice three times directly on Felis's small PP......

"Ahh

Angela is also very dissatisfied - you dog men and women, even if you want to play SM, don't stand in the way of the big woman...... Also, the baby is there......

"Why? Why hit Felise? Angela asked dissatisfiedly.

"This dead girl, walking my son as a puppy, can I spare her?" Marin said angrily.

"Poof-ha-ha-" Angela couldn't help but laugh.

"What are you laughing at? It's also your son, how can he be walked and played like a puppy? ”

"I really don't have common sense, this is what my mother taught me, saying that children start to learn to climb when they are eight or nine months old. Our Caesar has just turned 8 months old, and he is already very proficient in climbing, so smart! Angela said, and picked up little Caesar and kissed it, making the little guy grin.

"Crawling ......" Marin remembered, it seems that the baby does have a crawling stage before learning to walk......

"Of course, I just used this ball to tease little Caesar to make him climb faster." Felice covered the small PP and said dissatisfiedly. After saying that, he threw the ball to the ground, bounced it, and caught it again......

Marin's eyes were instantly attracted by this little ball......

This little red ball is about the size of a ping pong ball. Of course, that's not what attracts Marin. What attracted Marlin was that the ball was so elastic that it could bounce so high on a wool carpet......

"Felise, show me this little ball......"

"What? As a father, do you still have to grab toys with little Caesar? Angela on the side wasn't happy - it was my son's toy......

"No...... No, I just want to know, why is this ball so bounced so well......"

This ball reminded Marin of the legendary Chinese national sport - table tennis......

If the quality is really that good, Marin doesn't mind engaging in table tennis, which is also a good entertainment......

Hearing Marin say this, Felise didn't say anything, and directly handed the little red ball ball to Marin. As soon as Marin caught the injury, he felt a little sticky and pinched itβ€”it was so elastic......

"Why is it so rubbery, but it doesn't seem to be like a ...... Where did this ball come from? ”

"This one was given by Baron Columbus, saying that it was from the natives of the Savage Islands. He brought back several of them, saying they were toys for indigenous children, and some of them were given to a small museum in Spain......"

"Columbus...... Savage Islands...... Is it really natural rubber? No, I remember that natural rubber is still in the primeval jungle of the Brazilian Amazon......"

Marin didn't know that natural rubber was indeed native to the Brazilian rainforest. However, there are people in the rainforest......

The Indians in the Brazilian rainforest, although the level of civilization is very low, far less than the Incas in the Andes and the Aztec Mayans in Mexico, but they are also human.

Through the interaction and trade between primitive tribes in these rainforests, the seeds of natural rubber were brought out of the Brazilian rainforests and brought to the Caribbean coast. Then, through the canoes of the Caribbeans, it was transmitted to the islands in the Caribbean Sea......

"Someone, go and get Baron Columbus!" Since it was brought back by Columbus, he must have known more about it, so he simply called over and asked.

"Yes!" The guards immediately went to carry out the order.

Unfortunately, Columbus is still on the farm in Lyre County. Because the autumn harvest had just ended, Columbus was inspecting the harvest on his estate.

"God, I didn't expect such a small farm to produce 6 million pounds of rye a year! With so much rye, it can be sold for a sky-high price of 100,000 gold coins. I knew that farming was so profitable, what kind of voyage did I do! Farming is more profitable than sailing! "For the first time, Columbus participated in the autumn harvest of the estate that Marin had given him. In the past two years, he went to India twice in a row, and his wife took care of the house, and he didn't ask about the output of the estate, and he didn't know that the grain production of his estate was so high.

"It's all thanks to Marin-sama's advanced farming tools and fertilizers!" Columbus's second wife, the Spanish woman Beatrice, said.

"What farm tools and fertilizers?" Columbus was a big man in the world of sailing, and he was really an idiot when it came to farming.

"I don't know very well, but the farm implements are all made of iron anyway, and it is said that the plough used by the serfs is more advanced than that of other countries, and it is very labor-saving, and it can be pulled by an ox, and the ploughing is relatively deep, and the effect can catch up with the heavy plough of Saxony. As for fertilizers...... I don't know at all, because it was sent from the fertilizer factory in the name of Lord Earl, and everyone doesn't know what the ingredients are......"

"I see, Lord Earl, this is telling everyone - without him, everyone should not want to get rich......" Columbus also has political acumen, knowing the secret that Marin has controlled the fertilizer, ordinary people are not so easy to betray. Unless, I don't want to get rich.

"Christopher, can you find a way to give Fernando (Columbus's second son) a hereditary title?" Beatrice asked expectantly. You must know that Columbus's barony will be inherited by his eldest son Diego in the future. However, Diego was born to Columbus's first wife, Felippa, not to his current wife, Beatrice. Columbus is also old, and if he dies one day, Diego may not be kind to his brother Fernando. Because, than Beatrice, she usually favors her son Fernando. Therefore, Beatrice fears that Diego will kick his mother and daughter out after Columbus's death. Therefore, he wanted Columbus to help his son Fernando also mix a title and fief.

"This ...... It's a little difficult...... Unless, I do something bigger...... India has already been discovered, will you go to China next time? Columbus fell into deep thought......
