Chapter 1275： Bishop Conrad died

Hearing this news, Marin was in a bad mood. Then, the memories of the eight generations of coalition forces in the last life forcing "I Qing" to pay 450 million yuan in silver will always come to mind unconsciously.

In his last life, Marin has always been very strange, why there is powder. It is okay to have Mingfen, after all, the Ming Dynasty did not lose much in the foreign war. And the Qing Dynasty ... The early period of Kangmazi Yongzheng was okay, and later it was a miserable one. All of China was rubbed and insulted by people on the ground ... Marin couldn't figure out why anyone would miss "I Qing" ...

Of course, he is not a fan (Ming Dynasty is his own death), nor do he particularly hate the Qing Dynasty. But to be honest, the Qing dynasty did wipe away Hua Xia's face, and did not find it back until the 21st century. Before Marin's rebirth, China was still struggling to grow its face internationally, just to fill the huge deficit of the face lost by the Qing Dynasty.

However, although they are all called "Allied Powers of the Eight Kingdoms", Marin did not take this army into consideration. Especially in the last Ritterberg country that was added, it is a small township at the township level. This kind of merchandise is here to give away people's heads ... No, it's here to send land. But Marin still thinks that Ritterberg is too small. It is only a small area of ​​one or two hundred square kilometers, which is equivalent to a larger township. Marin is not interested in moving them.

But even if the mosquito is small, it is meat. Since the Rietberg family wants to die, Marin does n’t mind it. Moreover, Ritterberg is close to the southeast border of the Bishop of Münster, and it is easy to manage after annexation. Therefore, Marin is "disrespectful" ...

……

In fact, when Marin heard that Bishop Conrad had deliberately emptied out three-quarters of the property of the church in South Münster, he was very happy. Because Bishop Conrad did what he wanted to do, but he was scrupulous.

Although most of these properties will be taken away by this so-called "eight-nation coalition", that is not a problem. As long as Marin wiped out the eight princely kingdoms, all of them would be brought back.

Moreover, Marlin is most pleased with land issues. Most of the church's land was separated from the church by Bishop Conrad who was dedicated to "digging his own feet", which saved Marin a lot of trouble. Although Bishop Conrad dug the walls of the church for the benefit of his own family and allies. But in fact, the last cheaper is Marin. After all, from the legal documents, in the future, three-quarters of the church land in South Munster will be owned by Marin. Speaking, Marin would like to thank Bishop Conrad ...

Of course, thanks do not exist. After all, it is unforgivable for Bishop Conrad to collude with the princes of the Seven Kingdoms to seize the inheritance of the North Sea Kingdom.

Therefore, Marin sentenced Bishop Conrad to death ...

……

Prior to this, Marin had already arranged for the death of Bishop Conrad-the wind ...

Moreover, the relevant intelligence personnel, already in place, waited for Marin to order.

"Go ahead, give Bishop Conrad some more medicine to help you, and make sure that the elderly are" happy "to see God." Marin told Kohler.

"Okay, let me arrange this!"

Then, several secret letters were quietly sent to the south. These secret letters all use the simplest Morse code, and the letters are all Arabic numerals, which are not understood by most people.

It should be pointed out that although Arabic numerals are also popular in Europe, Arabic numerals are not dominant. For example, in the coins of this era, the numbers are Roman numerals, not Arabic numerals.

Strictly speaking, the North Sea copper coin minted by Marin ordered to be the first coin using Arabic numerals in the Christian world of Europe. This is because Marin engraved the brass coin with the year "1508", which is similar to the coins of later generations. But in this era, the numbers on European currencies are basically Roman numerals.

Arabic numerals really squeezed out Roman numerals, occupying a dominant position in Europe, or after the rise of Protestantism, mathematics was free from the pressure of the church and began to erupt. Because of the ease of calculation, Arabic numerals squeezed out the status of Roman numerals.

Moreover, Arabic numerals were introduced into China very early, not as those described in the novel, but only in modern times. In fact, during the Yuan Dynasty, Arabic numerals reached Huaxia. However, there is no popularity.

Because, at that time, Huaxia already had an abacus that was easy to calculate, and there was no need to use Arabic numerals. Also, Arabic numbers are easy to calculate on the draft. But the question is-ancient paper is very expensive, where is it as cheap and popular as later generations? Do you try to write on rice paper? Prodigal stuff, it's strange not to be broken ...

Abacus is not only convenient, but also does not consume expensive paper. If it is just addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, Arabic numbers are not used at all. Only by doing more complicated mathematical calculations can we show the superiority of Arabic numerals. But ancient Chinese mathematics was underdeveloped, and the convenience of Arabic numerals was not needed. Therefore, it cannot be popular.

Therefore, it is a bit nonsensical to say that the Arabic numbers in those novels will kill the Quartet as soon as they appear. Did you try to count on white paper in ancient times? This is as luxurious as wiping the buttocks with rice paper. It is still more cost-effective to use an abacus ... Of course, if you promote modern papermaking and reduce the cost of paper severely, it is also feasible to count it with a white paper pen. Otherwise, use the white paper to do the Arabic numeral calculation, which is something that the ancient local tyrants can do ...

……

However, Marin knew the superiority of Arabic numbers ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Moreover, he also took out textbooks for middle school mathematics. Therefore, Arabic numerals are naturally very useful. Coupled with Marin making cheap paper on Cape Breton Island, he has no problem promoting Arabic numerals in the North Sea.

And the spies in Beihai have naturally learned the mathematics of Arabic numerals and all know Arabic numerals. Then, each of them has a codebook in their hands. Then refer to a novel, or the Bible. According to the number of numbers, find the corresponding line of words and translate the entire information, it is so simple ...

……

After the news was delivered, the North Sea spies in Münster received the order to "start operation". Then, the potential spies in Münster Cathedral moved ...

"Master Bishop, this is the milk tea you want!" The North Sea intelligence officer Hua Te respectfully handed a cup of milk tea supplemented with medicine to Bishop Conrad ...

At the same time, the concubine nun named Bishop Alice Conrad also drank the fortified beverage ...

Soon, Bishop Conrad and Sister Alice came to feel, and began to rise up in the secret room of Bishop Conrad ...

In the beginning, the spies didn't add much material, but they were afraid that Bishop Conrad would die before he could get it. However, in the back room, there is a teapot with added tea. Moreover, it is excessive ...
