Chapter 792: Panama's Land Route Opens Up

Before leaving the Isle of Wight, Marin also sent to recruit a group of English refugees. Because of last year's war, England now has more refugees. Many of them had already been displaced to the southern coast, and Marin casually recruited a group of refugees and brought them to the Americas by ship. After all, the vast American continent is particularly short of labor.

In fact, Marin was well aware that the population of Germany alone was far from enough to develop the American continent, and the English were not enough. Therefore, the black slave trade was so developed in later generations. Africa lost 100 million sturdy men to the slave trade, and most of these sturdies were sold into slavery in the Americas, except for those who died on the sea.

However, the old blacks are uninhibited by nature and are very unsuitable for labor. They are more suitable for waves everywhere and simply can't stop. If the whites don't force them with knives and guns, they can't be expected to develop the Americas well. Just look at their hometown in Africa, obviously the land is vast, but the development utilization rate is very low.

The Great Migration of Animals in the East African Savannah is exciting, right? Many people have admired the wonder of nature and the environmental protection done well in East African countries. However, Marin thinks - Africans are stupid! With such a vast grassland, it is a waste not to develop and utilize it! There are so many antelopes and bison on the grassland, which should be on the table to improve the lives of African people...... If the Chinese occupy that land, what antelope, bison, and lions...... All will be on the table......

In fact, the spectacular fauna of the East African savannah is for the entertainment of foreign tourists, for the inhabitants of the country...... Is there a use for a P?

It is also the old black in Africa, stupid and stupid, listening to the demagogy of European and American environmental protection experts, what nature reserves to set up for European and American tourists. But at the same time, several countries in East Africa are also the most food-poor countries in the world......

Ma Linxin said that if he were the leader of an East African country, he would definitely hang up all those European and American experts who advocated environmental protection and beat them up - paralyzed, Lao Tzu's domestic residents can't eat enough, and they still have the heart to protect animals? You love animals, don't you? I'll tie you up and feed the lions! You see, how pitiful the lion is hungry......

The vast East African savannah can obviously become a granary. The various animals on the grassland can obviously become the nutrition of the people...... And the African buddies with bad brains, who were fooled by European environmentalists, really preferred to leave a large area of empty land for the animals to have fun and let the people starve...... This IQ ...... Marin didn't dare to compliment it anyway......

Therefore, even if there was a shortage of labor in the Americas, Marin did not plan to introduce black slaves on a large scale. Why? Lowering the average IQ of the people......

Of course, Marin has also seen a group of Chinese girls with lower IQs in later generations, who took the initiative to chase a group of African blacks, and then were willing to help them sell drugs, and were finally caught by the Malay authorities and waiting to be executed......

If you are fooled by Lao Hei's rhetoric, it is understandable, after all, women in love have negative IQs. But the initiative to pursue...... He also took his life for carrying poison...... Marin thought they were stupid......

Frankly speaking, marrying into European and American high-welfare countries, such as Sweden, Switzerland, Luxembourg and other European countries, Marin also thinks that they have the vision and have climbed high branches. can find an African boyfriend and help him sell drugs...... Still don't rate...... By the way, Africa has a very high percentage of people living with AIDS......

Therefore, Marin's real intention is to introduce the Ming population and help develop the Americas. After all, the Chinese are the best people in the world at farming, and they don't have a high demand for power.

Of course, the Ming household registration management system is strict, and it is not realistic to recruit immigrants from the Ming Dynasty on a large scale, so you can only wait for the famine to occur, and then take the opportunity to recruit and quietly bring it overseas......

In addition, although the Japanese Ma Lin did not like it, Ma Lin had to admit that they were similar to the Chinese and were also good at agriculture. Therefore, Marin's plan is to bring in both Chinese and Japanese. Then, the Chinese were used to drive the Japanese to become serfs and develop the Americas on a large scale...... In this way, the Chinese and the Japanese are bound to have deep contradictions. The Germans, on the other hand, only need to act as referees for conflicts between the two races...... At the same time, it is appropriate to favor the Chinese people......

……

Although he is Chinese in soul, Marin also understands that he is a German in this life. The ass decides the head, and since you are a German, you naturally have to consider the problem from the standpoint of a German.

Therefore, it is impossible for Marin to let the Chinese people freely control the Americas. Therefore, the development policy of the Americas in the future was one in which the Germans controlled the armed forces and the regime, and were responsible for collecting taxes. The Chinese, on the other hand, acted as landlords and assisted the Germans in administering the local ...... As for the Japanese, let's be the lowest serfs......

When the time comes, Marin will also make a system of eight banners, the Germans belong to the German Eight Banners, the Han people belong to the Han Eight Banners, and then some Japanese slaves and Javanese slaves are low-level serfs...... Although the Manchus were ignorant and backward, the system of controlling people was still quite powerful...... The Manchu set allowed a small number of Manchus to rule China for more than 200 years, and it should not be a problem for Marin to learn and use it to rule the Americas for two or three hundred years......

In addition, Dolgon's ban on martial arts, and Kang Mazi's text can also be used for reference......

However, this is also something that cannot be helped. After all, the only immigrants who can get over from the Ming Dynasty are some disaster victims, and the number is small. Unlike Japan, Japan has entered the Warring States period, and the country is in chaos. It's easy to get slaves from within Japan. Not to mention the capture by themselves, just by trading arms with those daimyos, they can willingly tie up their citizens in exchange for weapons and armor......

Originally, in the middle and late Warring States period of Japan, Portuguese merchant ships came to Japan to do business with the daimyos, and not every daimyo had Iwami Ginzan and Sado Gold Mine in the territory of the daimyo. Some of the daimyo fiefdoms were poor, but they wanted to buy "iron cannons" (arquebuses) from the Portuguese so that they could participate in the struggle for supremacy. But there's no money...... What to do? Go to neighboring countries to rob the population and sell it as slaves to Portuguese merchants. Some daimyo even kidnapped their own inhabitants and sold them as slaves to Portuguese merchants...... Among them, the white-skinned Japanese slave girl was the most popular with the Portuguese colonists...... It is said that in the 16th century, the number of Japanese slave girls who were sold by Portugal was counted in the tens of thousands...... It was not until later, when Japan was unified, that the slave trade ceased......

……

Therefore, Marin did not want Japan's Warring States to be unified. Therefore, in the future, the policy of the Beihai Kingdom in Japan was to act as a-stirring stick with iron hearts, and to suppress anyone who showed signs of unifying Japan. The more chaotic Japan became, the more opportunities he had to control large mines such as Iwami Ginzan and Sado Kaneyama, and wantonly sell Japanese as slaves to develop the Americas......

You know, a unified Japan is also very fierce. Japan has always had a relatively large population, and once the reunification is completed and the control of Iwami Ginzan is added, the national strength will still be very strong. Historically, after Toyotomi Hideyoshi unified Japan, he was powerful. Relying on Iwami Ginzan as financial support, he gathered 200,000 troops to invade North Korea and beat North Korea to the ground. If it weren't for the cavalry advantage of the Ming Dynasty, it was really possible for Toyotomi Hideyoshi to succeed.

Therefore, for Marin's Beihai Kingdom, if they want to colonize Japan, they must ensure that Japan is divided and that no male lord appears. As soon as a male lord appears, he will unite with his enemies to kill him......

……

With all sorts of ideas, Marin's fleet left England and headed for the American colonies. After leaving the English Channel, Marin ordered the new armed merchant ships to remove the Latin spinnaker and raise the upper edge of the bare sail to give full play to the advantages of the new sail and sail towards the American colonies according to the established course coordinates. As for the 10 warships, because they did not replace the new upper edge jirs, they could only use the old Latin spinnaker, and the speed would definitely not be able to catch up with the 20 new armed merchant ships......

The route to North America was fixed, as previous pathfinder vessels had detailed route coordinates for the convenience of mediocre captains. For these inexperienced captains, there is no need for a lot of nautical knowledge. As long as you bring a sextant and a sailing clock, calculate the latitude and longitude according to the angle of the sun, and compare it with the coordinates recorded on the chart, you don't have to worry about getting lost......

It was precisely because of the fixed route that in the middle of the voyage, Marin's fleet encountered a ship that was returning home to report the news......

The ship came from Panama and was sent by the Governor of Panama, Goullard. Now, when he met Marin on the way, the person in charge of reporting did not have to return to China, but went directly to Marin's ship and told Marin a good news - the land road from Panama to the Pacific coast was opened......
