Speaking of money, there is no shortage of Beihai country now. Not to mention that a large amount of cheap brass is used to cast brass coins, even silver coins, there is no shortage of them. The most wretched thing is that Marin used nickel-nickel copper to take it to France and replaced it with real gold and silver. The most troubling thing is that the French didn't see it at all. On the contrary, they really liked the fake Denier silver coin made of nickel-white copper in the North Sea country.

And Marin also discovered a very interesting thing-the French Denier silver coin, which is also a hard currency in Italy.

It is not difficult to understand that France is the largest country in Western Europe and the largest agricultural country. Italy has a large population, but mainly mountainous regions, so it needs to import a lot of wine and food from France every year. Regardless of the fertile volcanic ash soil in Italy, it is suitable for growing wheat. However, there are not many wheat fields in valleys and valleys. Italians eat more food made from barley. It also imports French barley and German rye as a supplement. Therefore, Italian food prices will always be expensive.

Since French agricultural products are imported in large quantities every year, the French currency certainly works well in Italy. After all, you can go to France to buy food directly with French currency.

Similarly, Italian coins are also very popular in France. After all, France also imports a lot of handicrafts and artworks from Italy every year, and the two sides are closely connected.

So now Marin has a new idea-he intends to spread out the fake Denier silver coins made of nickel-white copper in northern Italy. Then, through Italy, flow into France. In this way, even if something goes wrong in the future, Marin can guide public opinion and throw the pot away to the Italians. Anyway, the reputation of Italian businessmen is not very good, and it is very suitable for the back of the pot. Don’t you see, Shakespeare’s comedy "The Merchant of Venice" is an outstanding work that satirizes Italian profiteers.

In addition, the Venetian merchant Sherlock has a particularly important identity as a Jew.

It can be said that the Jews have been the "queen-backed men" of Europe for thousands of years. As long as there is an economic problem, the Jews will always be pulled out and flogged and become excellent backers.

In short, before the end of the Second World War, the Black Jews were politically correct in Europe and conformed to public opinion...

Marin has allowed the North Sea State Mint to mint more than 100 million counterfeit Denier silver coins, and they are still exploding in production. It must be fake to say that it is not guilty. Therefore, while frantically fishing for benefits, Marin was also trying to find someone to take the blame.

Obviously, Italian businessmen are very suitable for backing up. And the Jewish merchants among Italian merchants are even more suitable...

But how can the Italian Jewish merchants be left behind? If you spread rumors, you will be refuted without evidence. Moreover, Marin does not want to expose the fact that French Dnières silver coins are counterfeit. After all, I still want to make a fortune with this. Revealing now is tantamount to ruining one's own fortune.

Therefore, Marin intends to use subtle means to blacken a wave of Italian merchants and Jewish merchants among Italian merchants. First make their reputations stinky, and then, when they are inaudible, even if the counterfeit silver coin incident breaks out, you will be able to give the pot to the Italian Jewish merchants with a little guidance at that time.

How to subtly? Marin has ready-made experience to learn. This is Shakespeare’s "The Merchant of Venice"...

Needless to say, Shakespeare’s influence, and the masterpiece of this comedy, The Merchant of Venice, is also one of the most outstanding plays. More importantly, because this drama is so popular, it has blacked out Jewish merchants for hundreds of years since its birth. It is an important theoretical basis for the attacks on Jews...

Therefore, Shakespeare also contributes to the suffering of the Jews. His "The Merchant of Venice" is so popular that people who have watched "The Merchant of Venice" generally have a poor perception of the Jews. As long as a person incites it, it is easy to be used by others.

Legend has it that when Moustache was anti-Semitism, "The Merchant of Venice" was the focus of the promotion. Some people even say that because Mustache watched this show when he was a child, he had a prejudice against Jews in his heart since he was a child...

Of course, Marin doesn't care about the mustache. He knew that there was no more suitable person to hold back than a Jewish businessman. Moreover, the image of the Jewish businessman Sherlock in "The Merchant of Venice" is not entirely fabricated. There are many prototypes.

As far as Marin knew, the Jewish merchants of this era had no ethics.

Of course, as businessmen, most businessmen of this era have no moral integrity. It's just that Jewish merchants are among the best, and they are more prominent. People don’t want to blackmail their fellow merchants, and then, Jewish merchants who do not have a motherland and are pagans, they all carry the pot...

Marin does not discriminate against Jews, on the contrary, he values ​​Jews more seriously. For example, in his office of the Ministry of Finance, there are many Jewish college students working to help him with his finances, and they are doing a good job.

For this reason, although Marin has long established a theater in Aurich and copied Shakespeare's plays, he has never copied "The Merchant of Venice". Mainly, he must consider the feelings of his Jews. In addition, the feelings of Venice, a quasi-ally, must also be considered.

But now it's different, Marin needs to find someone to carry him back. It's not that Marin is afraid of France, but that he cherishes reputation. If a dignified state leader is exposed to cast counterfeit silver coins, everyone will despise it. Therefore, we must find a man with a back pot. Moreover, it is a person who can do it. Otherwise, just find a passer-by to take care of it, and others will not believe it.

Obviously, the Jews of Venice, this dual identity is very suitable as a target...

The Venetians have monopolized the spice trade for hundreds of years and have made amazing profits. They have long been jealous of Europe. The Jews are also making a lot of money, and their reputation is even worse. Combining the two, no one believes that he is innocent...

...

What Marin had to do was to bring the Shakespearean drama "The Merchant of Venice", which was performed in the drama club on the university campus, to the stage and spread it throughout Europe, making people automatically think that the Jewish merchants in Italy did not Reliable, very wicked...

However, in order to get rid of the pot of counterfeit silver coins, Marin also specially modified the original version of "The Merchant of Venice", adding a plot of Sherlock and a group of men edging gold coins and casting counterfeit silver coins.

In this way, with this story, as the show becomes popular in Europe, people will subconsciously think that-forging counterfeit coins must be the handwriting of Jewish merchants... Then, their defenses are useless...

...

However, as a quasi ally of Venice and the feelings of the Jewish officials of the North Sea State who need to take care of, Marin decided that this matter should not be allowed by the North Sea State to come forward. He had to find a "trumpet" to do it...

Marin thought of John Lafite, who was working as a spy in France, and originally wanted to stage the play in Paris. But thinking that France and Venice are now allies, it should take care of the Venetians' face, so it's not appropriate.

Then, you can only choose Spain and the United Kingdom. Both countries are deadly enemies of France, and the relationship with Venice is naturally very poor. It is very suitable for them to black the Jews of Venice and Italy.

However, Marin is relatively weak in Spain, and he wants to unconsciously promote the show "The Merchant of Venice", there is not little resistance.

Therefore, the show can only be promoted in England first. Moreover, Marin also intends to leave a name for Shakespeare. Then, the author of the new "The Merchant of Venice" is Shakespeare Although Shakespeare is not born yet, he has the right to sign the world-class drama...

Marin intends to use the various channels of the North Sea Chamber of Commerce in England to first fully roll out the new comedy "The Merchant of Venice" in London. Then, let the English subordinates go to Spain to find performance partners, and translate the script into the Spanish version, so that the Spanish local power faction can help promote it. As long as the show is a big hit in England, people from Spain will be happy to help promote it. After all, they also make money.

Then, this new "Merchant of Venice", which was added by Marin to depict the plot of Jewish merchants forging counterfeit money, will successfully throw the pot to the poor Jewish merchant, leaving Marin, the real culprit out of the picture...

On the day of the incident, people watched "The Merchant of Venice" too much. I am afraid the first reaction is that the Jewish merchant has become a demon again...

Thinking about it, I feel old and miserable... It really means "people sit at home, the pot comes from the sky"...
