Chapter 1282: Henry VIII?
"Huh?" Angela's face was stunned. Marin and Mrs. Liu were chatting in Chinese, and Angela didn't understand what they were saying. So, when Marin told her that she couldn't eat ice cream, she was stunned......
After reacting, Angela asked rhetorically:
"Why? Ice cream is my favorite! β
Marin said in a heavy tone:
"Your favorite keeps you from getting pregnant......"
"What?" Angela was taken aback.
Ma Lin told her what Liu En had said, and explained the consequences of Gong Han's misfortune - it was difficult to get pregnant......
"Woo woo - I'll never eat ice cream again, and I'm telling everyone that ice cream is harmful! If other ladies eat ice cream, they won't be able to conceive a baby! Angela began to cry.
But hearing Angela say this, Lao Yin Bimarin's eyes suddenly flashed......
Probably thinking of some bad idea, Marin smiled evilly, and then said to Angela:
"Angela, you can't tell the secret that you can't get pregnant by eating ice cream!"
"Why? Isn't it good for everyone to say it? β
Marin waved his hand and said:
"If you say that, then my ice cream won't sell!"
Marin is the one who runs a lot of ice cream parlors, and his main customers are women and children. If Angela says that eating ice cream will cause infertility, most of the business will be lost in an instant. After all, women are the main consumers of ice cream.
Moreover, Lao Yin Bimarin felt that encouraging the wives of rival nobles to eat more ice cream would help eliminate the heirs of rival nobles......
But Schwartz and Kohler's wives also like ice cream...... If we don't talk about it, we'll hurt them......"
Marlin waved his hand:
"It's okay, I'll whisper the truth to Schwartz and Kohler. Don't keep this secret or my ice cream parlor will go out of business! β
"Oh......" Angela complied. She didn't know that her husband was thinking about the yin man again......
Later, an ice cream chain called "HΓ€agen-Dazs" appeared in major European cities, mainly selling all kinds of delicious ice cream, and specially selling them to noble ladies, which deceived many European royal families......
Even, in order to trap the hostile aristocracy, the immoral Marin directly asked people to add colorless and odorless contraceptives to the ice cream sold to the wives of the hostile nobles, so that they would not want to get pregnant......
Of course, compared with the farmers who fed hairy crabs with contraceptives in later generations, Marlin can only be regarded as a basic operation. In her last life, Ma Lin's colleague's wife had a miscarriage because of the hairy crab that was fed with birth control pills. It's just a contraceptive pill, and if you don't add sterilization pills, it's all conscience......

Afterwards, Liu En gave Anji a medicine to recuperate her body. Fortunately, the fleet brought back a lot of finished Chinese medicinal materials, and I was not worried about the lack of medicine.
Moreover, the main prescription given by Liu En for the treatment of Gong Han is also very simple - brown sugar ginger soup. These two materials are very readily available...... No, it seems that there is no brown sugar in Beihai Country, only brown sugar......
So Marin instructed Sher to send a ship to Cuba so that they could produce some brown sugar. Previously, when Marin passed through Cuba, he left behind a few sugar craftsmen recruited from Hu Jiannan'an to help make white sugar.
Some of the craftsmen over there have mastered the method of using yellow mud adsorption to remove impurities. The way to do this is to use gauze to carry a lot of yellow mud and pour sugar juice on it. The syrup flows down through the yellow mud and gauze, and when it passes through the yellow mud, it is adsorbed by the yellow mud and takes away a lot of impurities, making the syrup more clear. After so many rounds of filtering and clarification, you can get whiter granulated sugar.
But now that Marlin thinks about it, brown sugar seems to be a very useful thing for women, not only to relieve uterine cold, but also to relieve menstrual cramps. As a result, more production points can be produced. As for white sugar, Marin plans to take the high-quality route, produce less and sell at a high price......
β¦β¦
Upon returning to Aurich, Angela immediately announced that she was "tired of eating ice cream" and sent the ice cream master from the palace out of the palace and sent him to the ice cream shop.
Because there was no brown sugar, she could only cook ginger soup with black sugar and drink it first. Then, at Liu En's suggestion, a batch of precious bird's nests brought back from Daming were also used to make porridge for Angela to drink.
According to Liu En, Angela has been cold for 10 years, and it is estimated that she will need to recuperate for more than half a year before she can continue to get pregnant. Therefore, Angela will not come to pester Marlin to make villains during this time. For even if it is made, it cannot be made......

On this day, Marin was leisurely drinking afternoon tea, when suddenly Kohler came over in a hurry:
"Lord, something has happened......"
"What's the matter? What about the 8-nation coalition? β
"No, it's from the French side......
"France? Did they increase their troops in Switzerland? Marlin wondered.
"No, the French proclaimed Prince Henry the Youngster King Henry VIII of England......"
"Henry VIII?" Marin was so shocked that he squirted out the afternoon tea in his mouth......
Nima, Henry VII's son Henry VIII has been done by himself through the hand of Edward, where is there another Henry VIII?
"It was the boy born to Margaret, the daughter of Henry VII, who named him Henry. Recently, there has been a lot of instability in Britain because of the discussion on the abolition of Magna Carta. Louis XII saw an opportunity to interfere in the internal affairs of England. Therefore, Margaret's remaining boy Henry was appointed King Henry VIII of England to encourage the forces against Edward within England......"
"Margaret gave birth to a boy?" Marlin didn't know anything about Margaret. When he left Europe two years ago, Margaret seemed to be still "pregnant".
Of course, this so-called "Henry VIII" was not born to Margaret at all. Because Queen Marguerite was not pregnant at all, but after she deceived the papal emissary by trickery, she later found the illegitimate son of a nobleman who was a close confidant of Louis XII, pretended to be born to herself, and named her Henry, saying that it was in honor of her father, Henry VII.
But both Marguerite and Louis XII knew very well that this so-called "little Henry" was an important pawn used by France to intervene in England.
Sure enough, when the Marlin spies clamoured for the repeal of Magna Carta in England, it caused a backlash within England. There have even been protests in some places.
Louis XII saw that there was an opportunity, so he pushed out the two-year-old "Little Henry" and appointed him "Henry VIII" King of England and "Henry I" King of Scotland.
However, the name of the King of Scotland does not matter, after all, Scotland is only a poor mountain country with a population of only 500,000 people. The important thing was the title of King of England, and with the title "Henry VIII", Louis XII could use Margaret's "mother and son" to win over and unite Edward's opposition in England. And Edward's opposition in England, after having the young king "Henry VIII", also had a backbone and goal, and the determination to oppose Edward was even stronger......
And the intelligence that Kohler brought back showed that King Edward had been mad by the actions of the French, and the two countries had become hostile. Moreover, Edward has already sent three waves of killers to assassinate Margaret's "mother and son". However, they all failed. Because, the French sent an army of thousands of people to protect Margaret and the so-called "Henry VIII", so that the English killers could not attack, and several adventures were assassinated, all of which failed, and the killers were all killed......
