The Rise of the European Emperor

How should I put it? It's not that Marin didn't rehearse the old Lapp chiefs, but they couldn't understand the language because they couldn't understand it. In addition, these people are not soldiers of Beihai Kingdom, and their obedience is very poor.

Before, Marin thought of a way to reward brave food and lured them to obey. But he didn't expect these old men to be crazy, and after seeing people all over the street, especially children, he became excited.

Why pinch? Because the Lapps lived in the cold Arctic Circle in this era, the fertility rate was low, and the baby survival rate was also very low. Therefore, the Lapps love children very much and are happy to see them. In particular, because of the high fertility rate of girls and few boys in cold regions, the Lapps especially like boys. Because, in ancient times, boys were the pillars and the hope of the tribe.

Coincidentally, most of the people in Beihaiguo who took to the streets to watch the excitement were naughty boys. A few old Lapp men, seeing so many boys and happy to see the hunter, began to throw gifts and played with the children. Then, I gave Marin everything I learned from the rehearsal...

Then, the solemn and sad atmosphere that Marin had originally rendered was forced into a sand sculpture scene by a bunch of old jokers. However, it was quite fun.

Marin's face was contorted with anger, but Kohler quietly told him - he listened to those envoys chatting, saying that Marin's brain must have been smashed by an iceberg, otherwise why would he want the permafrost in the Arctic?

Hearing these people's slander, Marin was not angry but happy. He held this enthronement ceremony, not to show off, but to promote the desolation and worthlessness of the Arctic.

So, he simply dispatched translators who knew the Lapp language to help the old chiefs communicate with the children.

Then, these old men are also unreliable, opening their mouths to brag. In order to show their bravery, there are ferocious monsters in the North Pole, and they fight monsters every day...

At Marin's cue, the translators deliberately spoke loudly. Then, the envoys of various countries also learned from the mouths of these bragging old guys, a Lapland region that is "full of monsters". Then, they gloated even more…

...

Looking at the group of envoys eating melons, Marin smiled, and then released a big move...

During the meal after the ceremony, several live reindeer were led to the dining room. In the presence of the envoys, the Lapp cooks bled the reindeer on the spot, poured the warm blood into a clay bowl, sprinkled a little salt, and brought it to the envoys.

"What is this for?" The envoys were puzzled.

"Drink!" The waiter explained according to the rehearsal script.

"Lapp people usually drink deer blood and eat raw meat! By the way, deer blood should be warmed while it's hot, otherwise it won't taste good when it's cold..."

In fact, the Lapps generally also eat barbecued meat. But sometimes it is difficult to find firewood in winter, and sometimes they do drink deer blood and eat raw meat. But that's usually what happens when you're forced to. The only people who really eat raw meat and drink blood at ordinary times are the Eskimos, that is, the Inuit.

But in order to scare the envoys, Marin deliberately said that the Lapp people usually live like this. Sure enough, such a savage way of life has frightened many weak envoys. Only a few of the envoys who were obviously Wufu tried to drink deer blood and eat raw meat, and the other envoys did not dare to try. Of course, Marin didn't force them to eat, but just showed them the hardships of the people of the Northland.

In fact, it is also the Lapp people who lack wisdom. Like the nomads in northern China, they know how to collect sheep dung and cow dung as fuel.

After all, the grasslands are covered in snow in winter, making it difficult to find fuel. As for the hay, it was for the animals, and it was too wasteful to burn it.

Of course, there is also a problem with using cow and sheep dung as fuel, that is, it is best not to use it for barbecue. After all, feces are feces, directly smoked barbecue... Well, think about it for yourself, will it smell like that...

Therefore, Mongolians generally cook meat in iron pots. No way, shit fueled barbecue is kind of like that. And there is an iron pot to cook across, it will be much better... But nomads can't smelt iron, so in history, there were nomads who went south to loot, and the iron pot was an important target of their looting.

In the future, Marin intends to promote the breeding of Icelandic horses, yaks and Icelandic sheep in Lapland. The manure produced by these hardy varieties can be collected for fuel. As for the iron pot or something, Beihai National Iron Works said there was no pressure. Moreover, the iron ore in Kirkenes can also provide a lot of rich iron ore for iron smelting. Marin occupies Lapland and is a win-win.

Of course, Marin didn't expect to make a fortune in Lapland either. This place, as long as it doesn't repost, Marin is satisfied. In fact, in addition to the seaside iron mines of Kirkenes, Marin also valued the Russian immigrants accepted in the Murmansk region. Only population is the most important basis of productivity in this technologically backward era.

Also, the iron ore in Kirkenes also needs people to mine, doesn't it? In this era of no mining machinery, only manual mining can be done. Therefore, Marin needs at least a few thousand strong laborers from the Grand Duchy of Moscow as miners of the Kirkenes iron ore.

Of course, Marin will not treat them badly. By then, all kinds of food will be full. Even, there will be special fishing boats to catch sea fish for the miners. Different from the farmers, the farmers who cultivate the fields mainly consume a lot of physical strength during the spring plowing and autumn harvest, and need to eat well. The miners are physically exhausted every day. Therefore, it is necessary to eat fish every day. After all, it takes effort every day.

Marin couldn't provide them with enough meat, but with the abundance of fish along the Norwegian coast, it was easy to provide them with long-term fish food.

In addition, the next time the population plundered from the Grand Duchy of Moscow, Marin intends not to take the St. Petersburg port route, but to change to the Murmansk route.

why? Because it is eye-catching!

St. Petersburg is indeed a desolate area at present, but when sailing from St. Petersburg, ships must pass through the Danish waters. The Øresund is very narrow, and it must not escape the eyes of Danish patrol ships. Moreover, Lübeck and Hamburg have also stationed fleets in the Øresund, and will definitely know the details.

Although these three forces did not have the guts to stop them, they would definitely leak the news. At that time, it will definitely cause an uproar and attract jealousy. If someone stops it in the middle of transportation, it will only add to the trouble.

So Marin simply changed course - bringing immigrants to Murmansk on the edge of the Arctic Ocean. Then, it will be transported back to Beihai Country from here.

Although traveling along the coast of Norway will also encounter ships from other forces, but it is not as narrow as the Øresund Strait, and other ships do not dare to approach it rashly. The North Sea is so big, everyone can keep a distance and keep it mysterious. If you want to get close, you can open the gun door to scare you...

However, this requires the establishment of a Murmansk port first. At that time, there will be many ships calling at the port to transport people. Moreover, houses must be prepared in advance for temporary resettlement of immigrants. At the same time, prepare food for the migrants to eat while they wait.

Moreover, in addition to those looted by war, this place can continue to be used to accommodate Rus immigrants who are willing to move to the North Sea Country in the future. Even if they are willing to settle here for a long time, Marin welcomes it.

To this end, Marin signed an order to establish a port city in the future port of Murmansk. As for the name, Marin didn't bother to think about it, so he just called the port of Murmansk...
