After leaving Milan, Marin and his party continued south, preparing to go to the Republic of Genoa. As for why he was going to Genoa, Marin lost looking for lemons.
As a big sailing enthusiast, Marin knows that in the 18th century, the Englishman discovered that drinking lemon tea can prevent scurvy, and a few drops of lemon juice in fresh water can also make it a week old. Bottled fresh water is not bad for a month or two.
One of Marin's previous friends was a fat man who loved drinking lemon soda. Although the fat meat has not been reduced much, it is also effective. Moreover, the dried lemon soaked in Marin has been bitter and astringent, which makes it difficult to drink. However, dry lemon soaked water can indeed supplement vitamins and prolong the deterioration time of fresh water.
Genoa was the first place in Italy to grow lemons, beginning around the early 15th century. Nowadays, although lemons have also been grown in other parts of Italy, the scale of cultivation is completely incomparable with that of Genoa.
So, Marin is going to Genoa to see if there are any dried lemons for fruit farmers to buy a lot. Sailors can prevent scurvy by drinking soaked lemonade.
You know, in this era, scurvy of sailing was really terrible. Da Gama's fleet, when returning home, killed 4 people, including Da Gama's brother. These sailors basically died of scurvy.
So, as long as the scurvy is overcome, and the storm or reef is not unfortunately encountered, the survivability of navigation is still quite high. As for other diseases, I don't worry too much. Because the sailors' bodies are stronger than ordinary people, and they are less likely to have general diseases.
Marin led the team, crossed the Po River, headed south all the way, left the territory of the Principality of Milan, and soon reached the region of Genoa. In Milan, it was a mess of porridge.
Leonardo da Vinci is a very favored member of the court. You should know that when Bianca Maria Sforza was married to Maximilian I, related affairs were chaired by Leonardo da Vinci. His disappearance annoyed the Duke of Milan.
A large number of soldiers searched the villa where Da Vinci lived, and nearby clues. But that was useless, because in this era, professional police have not yet risen, and there are no powerful detectives. In addition, Marin is also a modern person who has read more detective novels, and pays much attention to anti-reconnaissance. Even when he was out of town with Da Vinci, Marin and his men did not panic.
Moreover, when entering Milan, Marin also used a fake identity certificate. As for how to forge? It's too simple-carved carrots ...
In the past life, a high school classmate of Marin did not enter college, and later began to buy and sell fake certificates. Marin felt fun for a while, and he learned the carrot engraving with this student for a while, and he also learned to be like. Therefore, using radish to forge a number of parchment papers based on the identity certificates of other German merchants, and also forged official seals in Shenrao. The young officers who defended the city in the Middle Ages did not see any problems at all. Even if they were inferred, they could only trace the so-called "German merchants."
Therefore, Marin was not worried about the relationship between the matter and himself, and walked on the official road with his men. Moreover, this group of people was either riding or hurrying and travelling fast.
After entering Genoa, Marin began sending people to explore the lemon plantation, preparing to buy dried lemons. It's early May, and there must be no fresh lemons on the market. Therefore, Marin can only seek to buy dried lemons left by growers last year.
However, after asking several plantations, there were no dried lemons left. Because it seems that lemons are becoming popular in Genoa, which has caused lemons to sell well and to other parts of Italy.
Marlin was distressed, and dried lemon was what he wanted so much. Because, without lemons, sailing is too dangerous. If important sailing personnel die of scurvy, it will be a big loss.
However, there must be no fresh lemon right now. If you want lemons, you have to wait for the fall lemon harvest season. However, Da Gama will leave in July. Marin was unable to obtain a full set of navigational and hydrological data on the west coast of Africa, and had to send the stern to Dammam. Therefore, you must have something to prevent scurvy before July.
In a lemon plantation, after failing to acquire lemon dried again, Marin bored a lemon leaf boringly, put it in his mouth and chewed ...
This is a quirk left by Marin's previous life. When I was bored and thinking about problems, I like to slap down a leaf or grass leaf and chew it in my mouth ...
Suddenly there was a bitter taste in the pout, pulling Marin's spirit back. Marin suddenly froze ...
He vaguely remembered that most of the later sailors of the British Empire did not drink with lemon soaked in water-that was the only treatment for officers. Ordinary sailors, just drink lemon leaf water at the root, much lower end ...
"Yeah, these lemon leaves are also good!" Marin patted his head and felt that he was dead.
Lemon leaves have the same origin as lemon. Although the ingredients are not as good as those of lemon fruit, many of them are similar. Moreover, in later generations, I have even heard that green tea leaves also contain vitamin C, let alone lemon leaves.
Even, Marin suspects that as long as it is a green leaf soaking water, vitamin C can be soaked, but the content is different. As for black tea and the like, the lack of vitamin C is because the tea has been fired and destroyed the vitamin C inside.
林 Marin, who was still very upset, was instantly excited. So he began to command Kohler to go with the local fruit farmers to buy green lemon leaves ...
When the fruit farmers heard about it ~ www.novelhall.com ~ at first they refused. Are you kidding me? You took the surgery industry, the fruit trees can no longer photosynthesize (they don't understand this), and you still have a lemon fruit of P?
However, Marin grabbed a handful of gold coins, and the fruit farmers immediately knelt ...
You know, the whole orchard can't sell a handful of gold coins even if the lemon harvest is huge!
So, Marin, who had paid enough money, successfully plucked all the lemon leaves from the orchard. Then Marin and the fruit farmers borrowed the ground to dry the leaves. Because young leaves cannot be preserved, they can only be dried. Although vitamin C loses a lot after drying, it is better than fried black tea. Soak in hot water, there are still a lot of vitamin C.
After a while, Marin led people to sweep through several lemon orchards, and picked up the lemon leaves of the orchard, and for a time it became a strange talk in the Genoese countryside. Said to be a stupid German, he does n’t buy lemons, but he likes to eat lemon leaves. He bought a lot of them ...
After Ma Lin picked these lemon leaves and dried them all, he also hired local farmers to help him cut up the dried lemon leaves and put them in sacks ...
The lemon leaves at this time are beyond recognition. Inside the sack were piles of dark green shreds. Except for Marin's men, no one else can see what this thing is ...
Marin looked at the dark green shreds in the sack, hehe laughed—hehe, tell you to compete with me for maritime trade! All your crew members die, my crew members must not be scurvy!
Before leaving, Marin opponents issued three applications and five orders, repeatedly stressing that they must not tell the secrets of the lemon leaves. Otherwise, they should not be disposed of by military law. Www.novelhall.com The fastest and hottest serial works are at ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Please read for mobile users.
