In fact, Marin has divided the power of the Queen of England to Lady Mary and Angela. The combination of the two is equivalent to the Queen of England in later generations. And with the existence of the veto, there is no need to worry about the five-member ruling group making decisions that are detrimental to the interests of the Hoffmann family. In this way, Marin was more at ease about Caesar's future.

Of course, the veto power is generally not used. For example, the British monarch, although he has the right of veto, has never used it for more than 100 years. Although there is a reason for the decline of royal authority, it also shows that the veto power cannot be used lightly. Otherwise, internal contradictions will be intensified.

Generally speaking, the veto is only used when the group of five wants to weaken the royal power. However, with the loyalty of 5 people, such a thing should not be done.

And in order to win over these 5 people, Marin ordered that the eldest sons of these 5 people can become Caesar's attendants, and they will all be Caesar's close ministers in the future. In this way, it is equivalent to ensuring that their family's wealth lasts longer.

Outside of the group of five, Kahn's family had more complicated problems. At first, Karn had two women, which was a bit unruly. Now, Karn's eldest son has been born, and Karn is officially married to his eldest son's biological mother. But Marin had promised that the sons of both of Karn's women would be concubines...... And Karn had to escort himself to the Ming Dynasty, and if something happened to him, Karn would not be spared......

Therefore, before leaving, Marin signed another decree recognizing the second son born to another woman in Karn as a son-in-law. If the eldest son is extinct, the second son is entitled to inheritance. Without a chance to inherit Karn's fortune, Marin reserved a baronial title and a fief. A fiefdom of the Americas, of course. After all, it is difficult to inherit a native fief without being the eldest son. And there is so much land in the Americas, which is the most suitable place for those who are not the firstborn.

……

After that, Marin went to Lady Mary alone and asked her to protect Caesar until she came of age, if she could not return.

In addition, Marin vaguely reminded Lady Mary that if she really couldn't come back, she must stop Adler from coming back from Ireland. Otherwise, Adler could be in danger of his life......

Lady Mary heard a great shock in her heart, but this was Marin Ming to make a statement, and she said sadly:

"Marin, you are brothers...... although Lady Mary is partial to Marin, Adler is also her own son. So, hearing Marin's words, Lady Mary was saddened.

"I know, but no one is as important as my son Caesar! Whoever threatens my son, the secret hand I have left, will unscrew off his head! Marin said calmly.

"Adler wasn't that kind of man......" Lady Mary defended.

Marlin nodded:

"I know, but can you guarantee that Muti grows up and doesn't have anything else in mind? He is the eldest son and the eldest grandson! ”

"Woo-you're still crushing Muty, I knew that dead old man had done something stupid!" Lady Mary wept bitterly.

Marin didn't defend himself, after all, if he told the truth and said that he had been guarding against Adler a long time ago, it was estimated that Lady Mary would be even more sad. That's fine, old Hoffman helped him take the blame, and he didn't have to be blamed.

Looking at the sad Lady Mary, Marin hesitated and explained:

"Mother, there is an old saying in the Eastern Empire, called 'Since ancient times, the royal family has no family affection', and since I became the lord of a country, family affection has left me. Actually, I don't want to do that. But the murder of his nephew Edward V, King Richard III of England, irritated me, and I was afraid......"

"Isn't there no evidence that Edward V was killed by Richard III?" Lady Mary was puzzled. After all, Marin used this interface to question the legitimacy of Henry VII's throne in the first place, and he also made publicity.

Marin shook his head, then whispered:

"Mother, don't tell anyone. My teacher, Albert Einstein, told me that Edward V and his brother, Richard, Duke of York, were murdered by Richard III. Even, I know where the body is. However, I won't say it. Because, after saying it, His Majesty Edward's throne is not legitimate. And my son Caesar is going to marry Princess Margaret in the future to get the throne of England. So, I'm not going to talk about it, and I hope you don't talk about it either! ”

Madame Mary nodded hurriedly, she knew this truth better than anyone else. But she still wasn't at ease:

"Are you so sure that His Majesty Edward will not give birth to a prince?"

Marlin nodded:

"I'm sure it was the French. But I didn't tell His Majesty Edward, because if I did, England and France would have been dead. When the time comes, our Caesar may inherit a devastated England. This is the Hoffmans' only chance to take the throne, so you must help me protect Caesar! ”

"However, I remember that according to the agreement, if King Louis XII of France gives birth to a son, he will give priority to marrying Princess Marguerite......"

"If Louis XII had given birth to a son, he would have given birth a long time ago. Anyway, he probably didn't have any hope of having a son again. Marin didn't dare to say anything about sterilization of Queen Anne. If this is leaked, the French will go crazy and become the target of the European public. Even if he believed Lady Mary again, Marin would not dare to talk nonsense. Even, even the fat brother who took the drug didn't know that it was a sterilization pill, and thought it was a powerful contraceptive pill. And many people who knew the inside story of this matter were dealt with by Marin, or they were banished to the American colonies. As for Kong Tai, who donated medicine, he was thrown directly to Taiwan Island......

Marin revealed a little bit of information to Lady Mary, and it was also to make Lady Mary work harder to protect Caesar. After all, that's the hope of becoming a king. Thinking about the way Anne had the opportunity to become Poland before, the old couple were crazy with joy, and you know how much they value the throne.

Moreover, Marlin said this, and his main intention was to convey it to old Hoffman through Lady Mary. In this way, old Hoffman, a confused old man who favored the eldest son, would pay more attention to Caesar's safety. Marin was afraid that he would connive at or even support Muti to challenge Caesar in the future, so he gave him some hope and made him understand the importance of Caesar.

……

Just as Marin was arranging this arrangement, the autumn harvest in October also began to come to an end. There is no need to look at the results, Marin also knows that it must be a bumper harvest.

Because, this year, the wind and rain are smooth, and there are no natural disasters. The crops are already fertile and the water supply is sufficient. Even insect pests have been solved by Marlin with Bordeaux liquid, stone sulfur mixture, or soil pesticides soaked in pyrethrum. Therefore, if there is no harvest, there is no reason.

But Marin summoned the five regents and commanded:

"We won't sell grain this year!"

"Don't sell grain? Isn't that a lot less income? I can't afford to raise an army of 60,000 just by selling salt! Kohler worried.

"When I say not to sell grain, I am not to sell locally produced rye and oats. As for the wheat produced in the Americas, it still has to be sold, otherwise the fiscal revenue is indeed insufficient. ”

"What about winemaking? Brewing is a lot of rye. Heider asked.

"Use the old grain that is about to expire to make wine, and this year's will not be moved, and it will be stored."

"Why?" Schwartz asked, confused.

"I'm afraid that after I leave, someone will attack the mainland of the North Sea Country. Therefore, we need to stock up on a large amount of food and fight a war of attrition against a possible strong enemy. As long as there is enough food, no one can consume more energy than us! ”

The five of them suddenly understood, in terms of food, there was really no more than Beihai Country.

"However, as far as I know, if the grain is not sold, the domestic granary will not be able to hold so much grain...... "Kohler is a special statistician and knows the situation of domestic grain reserves.

Marin thought for a moment and arranged:

"Then expand the cement granary in the two major cities of Aurich and Emden to increase the long-term combat capacity of the two cities."

"Also, don't put too much food in some small towns that are easy to attack, so as to avoid being captured by the enemy and strengthen their strength."

"If there is really not enough in the domestic granary...... Then quietly send the surplus grain to Newcastle and build a cement granary there. After all, it is impossible for the enemy to hit Newcastle...... Moreover, even if there is not enough food, it is safe to transport food back from the sea......"

"Okay, let's arrange it!"
