Chapter 403： 2 Uncle, let's form an alliance!

, The fastest update of the latest chapter of the Emperor's Rise!

In fact, Prince Siegmont did not know that he walked around the ghost door. Had he not shown the expression of fear and shock at the right time, Marin felt that he had been bluffed. Perhaps after leaving East Friesland, he would have died of assassination.

Prince Siegmont was a smart man. After seeing Marin's powerful strength, he actually had the idea of ​​"holding his thighs". He has not yet been identified as the crown prince of Poland and Lithuania, but has an advantage over his brother Vladislas II.

After all, the position of the Polish King and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania is very strange-it requires the election and confirmation of the nobles ...

In this regard, Poland and Lithuania are very similar to Germany. The King of Germany was also elected, but after Charles IV released the Golden Seal Edict, only the seven electors remained with voting rights. But in Poland and Lithuania, those powerful dukes and counts can vote.

Out of the need to protect their own rights and interests, the great aristocrats of Poland and Lithuania certainly do not want the monarch to be too strong, lest they be deprived of their autonomy like the French aristocracy. Therefore, Prince Siegmont has more advantages in election than his brother Vladislas II.

But in the end what happened, Prince Siegmont had no idea. After all, people's hearts are unpredictable, who knows who those nobles will vote in the end?

Therefore, Prince Siegmont actually needs the support of his allies. What he needs most is to win over the big nobles of Poland and Lithuania.

Prince Siegmont is a very capable and intelligent monarch. Otherwise, he would not bribe the Crimean Khanate Mongogire Khan in 1512, causing the Crimean Khanate troops to sneak into the Grand Duchy of Moscow and successfully dismantle the Crimean Khanate and the Grand Duchy of Moscow Alliance.

Since then, the Crimean Khanate has become half of Poland ’s allies (after the war in history, the Crimean Khanate has not stopped the population plundering of Poland and southern Lithuania), but it turned over with the Grand Duchy of Moscow Afterwards, Crimea frequently invaded the southern region of the Grand Duchy of Moscow, which made it necessary to allocate a large amount of troops to the southern border, thus losing the ability to concentrate on attacking Lithuania.

Therefore, this person, Prince Siegmont, is a person who can judge the situation very well. After seeing Marin's power, Prince Siegmont took a moment to adjust his mood. Then, he began to laugh with a smile on his face.

"Second Uncle ..."

"Poof--" Marin sipped milk tea ...

In the West, there is very little called the second uncle. However, Lithuania ’s dealings with the great powers of the Golden Horde, but know some Eastern customs, can express this meaning in the form of phrases. Marin understood it, but also spouted a sip of milk tea, which just sprayed on Prince Ziegmont's clothes ...

However, Prince Siegmont's face did not change color, as if he didn't feel it, and he continued to laugh all over his face, similar to Marlin's:

"Brother Uncle, you see, I'm just a prince with a slim future. After marrying Anne, I can't treat her badly ..." Prince Siegmont said with a stern expression.

"Stop-just say whatever you want!" Marin couldn't stand Prince Siegmont's suddenly cheap. At the same time, he also admire this guy, for the sake of benefit, knowing that flexibility is a personal talent.

"I know a little bit about the ideas of my uncles and aunts. But, whether I can become the King of Poland and the Grand Duke of Lithuania, is not yet known. I really want to work hard to become the King of Poland and the Grand Duke of Lithuania, so that Anne can be a queen. However, I lack support now ... You see, shall we form an alliance? "

"Association? For now, I simply support you ..." Marin said silently.

"Yes, you support me now, but after I became the King of Poland and the Grand Duke of Lithuania, I can give you back! Poland and Lithuania are also great countries, and there are more places to support you."

Marin nodded and agreed with Prince Siegmont. If he became the King of Poland and the Grand Duke of Lithuania, he could indeed become a strong aid to Marin. Not to mention, diplomatic support alone can fully relieve Marin ’s current dilemma of diplomatic isolation. Even the marriage with the royal family of Jagiellon can greatly enhance the influence of the Huffman family.

The Huffman family was able to play by Marin, and only then played a large area. But in the eyes of those old aristocrats, the Huffman family still can't get on the stage. what? You say you are the blood of the original Earl Brock family? Don't be funny, the Brock family was also a border chief in the eyes of the orthodox German aristocracy ...

Therefore, even though Marin's strength is very strong, the influence of the Huffman family in the aristocracy is really weak. This is why old Hoffman, including Mrs. Mary, is keen to let her son marry a princess and her daughter marry a prince.

Only in this way, the marriage with the traditional old big aristocratic family can show that the Huffman family has entered the top aristocratic circle.

Going out in the future, the old Hoffmans can proudly declare that my daughter is Queen of Poland! In this way, who dares to look down upon?

These knowledge faces,->> , update the latest chapter of Emperor Rise!

In practical interest, through the marriage with the Polish royal family, Marin can actually extend the tentacles of commerce into Poland with a large area and a large population. For example, the salt trade, and the future sugar trade.

In addition, Marin also knows that because there are many feudal nobles in Poland and Lithuania, the number of wandering knights is not less than that of Germany. With the future couple of Polish kings as an introducer, Marin wants to recruit a group of Polish knights to serve as lancers (wing cavalry), that is absolutely no problem. Unlike in the German region, because the family's reputation is not obvious, there are not many German knights willing to come to Marin.

Thinking of this, Marin nodded and said:

"Well, I agree to form an alliance. But, how can I support you now?"

"Now? Then support some fertilizers. When I earn enough money, I have the money to bribe the great aristocrats in Poland and Lithuania so that they can support me!"

"No, now even if you have money, it is not appropriate to spend money to buy those big nobles. You know, although Duke Alexander is not in good health, he is only in his forties. Did he die early? What if he supported His Majesty Vladislas II in taking over Poland and Lithuania? "Marin immediately rejected Prince Ziegmont's claim. Moreover, he thinks the other party is too anxious.

Prince Siegmont thought for a while, and felt that it was indeed inappropriate to do so and easily angered his brother. So he sincerely asked:

"So, second uncle, what do you think I should do?"

"Who is your second uncle?" Marin gave him a blank look, but still gave suggestions:

"Right now, you really don't want to spend money to buy it. However, it is okay to increase feelings with those big nobles."

"So how can I increase my relationship with them?" Prince Siegmont asked.

"It's very simple, please eat! You forgot my chef's cooking skills? So many delicious things can definitely attract them!" Marin said proudly.

Prince Siegmont nodded immediately. Indeed, the food in the Marin Palace attracted him, who had always been very restrained, let alone the ordinary nobles.

Moreover, eating and drinking together is a friend of wine and meat, but also a friend, isn't it? At least, these wine and meat friends will not deliberately oppose you when you are in the wind and water. They often follow Prince Siegmont to eat and drink, at least they will owe humanity.

Although, this year, the nobles have a much better life, but in the early Middle Ages, European kings and large nobles, like to bring a large group of horses, in the harvest season, to go around and eat and drink. There are even kings and nobles who die because of eating and drinking ...

It's not as exaggerated as it was in the early Middle Ages, but it is often a big favor in Europe for dinner.

As for expenses, Marin promised to give 10,000 Ugram fertilizer every year, which would make Prince Siegmont earn hundreds of thousands of more coins every year. This money is used to entertain those big nobles for dinner, which is definitely more than enough, and there are still many surpluses.

Marin's opinion is that after Prince Ziegmont returns to his country, he will entertain the big nobles who have the right to vote to eat and drink and increase their feelings. Inviting people to eat without touching the sensitive nerves of Duke Alexander, but being able to communicate with each other well.

After Grand Duke Alexander really hung up, he then paid a sum of money to bribe the leaders of the important nobles. In this way, the throne will be stabilized.

In the end, Marin also instructed Prince Siegmont in detail how to use fertilizer in a subtle way. The specific method is to find a remote manor land, use fertilizer in the cultivated land there, and increase production. Then, set up an unremarkable chamber of commerce and quietly transport a large amount of grain to the field to be distributed and sold ~ www.novelhall.com ~ to avoid attracting others' attention ...

You know, in Poland and Lithuania, the royal family can not cover the sky with one hand, just one of the big nobles. If the secrets of these fertilizers are known by the great nobles, they must join forces to force Prince Ziegmont to hand them over. Once the fertilizer is popularized, Prince Siegmont still makes a ghost money? Food prices must have plummeted ...

Therefore, after a thorough analysis, Prince Siegmont also understood that secret fertilizer technology is the most advantageous option for himself. If the fertilizer technology spreads and the large nobles who are already strong get the technology, then their strength will be even stronger. And as the monarchs of Poland and Lithuania, the more sorrowful they will be, and they may even be completely puppets ...

After understanding these truths, Prince Siegmont stated that he should not only choose a remote manor that is not bordered by others. Even when using fertilizers, serfs will be allowed to fertilize at night to avoid being seen by outsiders. In addition, the manor of the manor will also use the people he trusts the most to avoid the leakage of confidential information ...

Seeing that Prince Siegmont took such a path, Marin dismissed the idea of ​​killing him, and happily talked to him about Anne's marriage. In this regard, Prince Siegmont stated that he would return home immediately and seek the support of his elder brother Alexander to marry Anne as soon as possible. And Marin also said that she would give a dowry to make Anne marry the scenery ...
