Chapter 740： Interest exchange

Because it takes time to develop the steering wheel, and the upper edge truss sail also requires further testing along the way, but these are not related to Marin, so now Marin feels suddenly doing nothing.

Marin suddenly regretted it—why not go to an engineering course before crossing? If you are an industrial designer and know how to make everything, then save yourself. It ’s best to lead everyone into the era of internal combustion engines, and then dominate the world within ten years ...

It is a pity that Marin is a liberal arts student. Many truths have been seen in books or novels. However, he only talks. Let him do it himself, it is better to be an apprentice craftsman.

Moreover, what made Marin depressed was that he had crossed into the magnificent voyage era, but unfortunately, he wore it too early and turned out to be the beginning period. That's all, many nautical technologies have not yet appeared. To this end, Marin had to busy building the Galen ship. Now, I have to be busy with the upper-edge skewer sails and the roulette-type rudder wheel ... all this is not necessary, and Marin is needed. But he will not say anything, just say. Therefore, Marin can only shoot his own mouth first, and then let those craftsmen who are confused to find out for themselves to research and develop ... This time is greatly wasted ...

However, again, Marin can know the scientific truth, it is already very difficult. Even the physical and chemical knowledge of later generation high school level is extremely high-end in this era. Leonardo da Vinci, the smartest scientist of this era, was amazed by Marin's scientific "talent" and even willingly admired it. But what surprised Leonardo was that Marin's physicochemical knowledge was right. But once he got to the hands-on stage, it was super wasteful, and Da Vinci, an experimental assistant, suspected that he wasted firewood ...

In desperation, Marin had to bring out the so-called "big virtuous" Einstein whose grandpa's grandpa had not yet been born. , But have n’t practiced ... so, it makes sense ...

Just when Marin regretted not learning much engineering skills in his previous life in the palace, the guard came to report-John II, Duke of Cliff, visited ...

Upon hearing of this ally's visit, Marin immediately got up and warmly received John II. After all, Marin is now asking for each other.

Because of the poor reputation among the princes, in order to avoid stimulating the German princes too much, Marin decided to use the name of John II, Duke of Cliff, to declare war on Geddes and win most of the Principality of Geddes Territorial plan. Then John II, Duke of Cliff, "employed" Marin's army to attack the Duchy of Geddes, seizing the very fertile land of the Lower Rhine in the Dutch region of Geddes. As for the remuneration for the employment, it is the Marc Marko country that Marin thought about. The Macbeth is the most central area of ​​the Ruhr area, a place where coal is produced ...

Therefore, for Marin, John II, Duke of Cliff, is definitely an uncle, and needs to be well served. To this end, Marin ordered the prince to open the door. Then, he personally brought Prime Minister Jeffrey and General Schwartz and other civil and military officials to welcome the King's high-level etiquette and greeted John II. When John II's carriage entered the palace, Marin even accompanied the horse beside the carriage.

"Oh, Grand Duke Marin, you are too kind!" John II said with a smile. Although polite, John II's wide-angled lips indicate that the other party is very satisfied.

For the traditional European ancient nobility, face or something (that is, honor) is the most important. In many cases, face is even more important than gold coins. Therefore, Marin's face-saving approach makes John II, an old noble, very useful.

Moreover, Marin is now the Grand Duke. Although the Grand Duke Marin specifically stated that he was equal to the Duke, the Grand Duke is the Grand Duke and has a higher status than the Duke. Today, the Grand Duke Marin, so face-saving, to greet himself with high-standard etiquette that welcomes the king, still makes John II feel that he has a face.

In addition, by coincidence, John II also had the ambition to be king. It is a pity that his two closed countries have no money and no strong army. Therefore, John II's ambition to be king can only be considered in his heart. And Marin happened to greet him with the etiquette of welcoming the king, and it just happened to let John II have the addiction of being a king ...

After the host and guest were seated, Marin first asked his men to serve the very popular Earl milk tea. Then, he opened the door and asked directly:

"Welcome Lord John's visit, but Lord John doesn't usually go abroad easily. When I came to Aurich this time, I don't know what your job is?"

Europeans don't like to turn around and talk, Germans are more honest. Therefore, Marin directly opened the door and asked his doubts.

After John Duke of Cliff took a sip of Earl's milk tea, he did not directly answer Marin's question, but instead asked:

"I heard that Master Marin now has a lot of good spirits for sale? It seems that what is the whisky?"

Marin immediately understood-it was originally for the rye Erguotou ...

Marin did not think that John II was here to buy wine exclusively, so that a duke could come over in person, and certainly not talking about the issue of individuals buying wine and going back to drink. So, there is only one possibility-this guy wants to sell whiskey as an agent ... only if he is an agent, can he earn enough ...

However, Marlin clearly remembers that this 40-degree spirit is not very popular in the German region. Because Germans prefer low-level beer. So Marin asked directly:

"Master John, I remember that Germans don't like this kind of spirits ..." The implication is that Marin is not optimistic about the sale of whiskey in the Principality of Cliff and Markber.

John II smiled slightly and said:

"I naturally know this, so I want more than the exclusive distribution rights of the Principality of Cliff and Macbeth. The sales of spirits in these two regions are indeed not very good. But ... my brother's Teutonic Knights China, spirits will be very popular ... "

"It turns out that ..." Marin suddenly realized.

Although the Teutonic State was ruled by the Teutonic Knights, the main population of the Teutonic State, the Prussians, was the Slavs.

It is worth noting that the Prussians mentioned here are the indigenous peoples of East Prussia and have little to do with the so-called Prussians of the later Prussian kingdom.

The so-called "Prussians" in the Kingdom of Prussia are actually Germans. The Prussian here refers to the natives of the Teutonic Order, the Slavs. They were actually Slavs who were forced to speak German by the Knights of the Teutonic Order and gradually became Germanic. Later, they gradually merged with the Germans ...

The living habits of the native Prussians are naturally different from the Germans. Like the Poles, they also like to drink alcohol, and the more intense the more they like it.

Moreover, the population of the Teutonic Knights is as high as one million, mostly native Prussians. Therefore, the Teutonic Knights is definitely a big market for spirits. Therefore, Marin admired John II's vision.

If it were normal, Marin might refuse John II's request. After all, this is a vain request to divide money with Marin. But now, Marin can't really refuse. Because it is too important for Marin to seize the Macbeth, but the Macbeth is in the other's hands. Moreover, attacking the Principality of Geddes also requires the other party to come forward ... Therefore, even if some are reluctant, Marin decided to succumb ...

"Okay, I agree. But, where is the head of Philip?" Teutonic is, after all, the head of Philip, the younger brother of John II. Therefore, this benefit is indispensable to the head of Philip.

"Relax, this time it was Philip who asked me to talk to you. Philip and I share the profit from selling wine ..."

Marin seconds understand ~ www.novelhall.com ~ This is to remind him-the interests of the two people need to be divided into more points ... Moreover, this also explains why John II knew that Marin personally went to help sell whiskey . After all, the Teutonic Kingdom and Poland are neighbors. It is no surprise that such a big thing happened in Poland ...

"Okay, I will sell it to you at 30% off the price!"

"Seven percent? Can it be lower?" John II naturally hopes to make more profits.

"Master John, the cost of making wine is very high. In order to obtain high-quality wine, the waste of brewing this wine is very large. Only the most essential part of the brewed wine can be extracted to ensure that the wine is not choking ... , I have given up more than half of my profits ... "

Marin slammed John II, who did not know the technique of brewing Erguotou. Moreover, he did not know that Marin had a lot of grain in his hands, and thought that Marin bought grain and wine. Thus, John II, Duke of Cliff, agreed to this division.

"Then wish us a happy cooperation, and I will give you the Marko country as you agreed. The premise is that you want to knock down most of the Principality of the Principality of Geddes and use it for me ..."

"Okay, that's all!"
