A few days later, Marin ushered in a boat carrying the family at the pier in Tholencher. Marin prepared the carriage and horses, and then the family rushed to Den Burg.

Marten's castle was repaired by Marin at a great cost. Originally, Marin had doubled the small castle, which was not much larger than a larger courtyard house. At the same time, the city walls of Den Burg also cost a lot of money. Of course, building walls and expanding castles are expensive. Otherwise, Marin would not spend that much money. But it's all worth it. If Marin hadn't built strong walls, the last time the Friesian army invaded, it would be difficult for Denborg to keep it.

In addition, in order to solve the problem of poor light in the castle, Marin opened a lot of windows in the extension of the castle and painted the entire castle with white lime, which made the castle look brighter.

Not only that, Marin also specially selected 100 guards to guard the castle day and night in shifts. The 100 guards, dressed in uniforms similar to those of the later British Royal Guards, looked very neat.

Of course, there is no bear-skin hat for the Red Shirts. Because, the bearskin hat is not suitable for wearing in summer, covering people. The British Royal Guard has more than once experienced a situation where the guards suffered from heat stroke.

Therefore, instead of wearing a bearskin hat for the castle guard, Marin directly put on the triangle hat that was very popular in the eighteenth century. The top is red and the pants are white. Then I wore riding boots ...

办 This set up makes Marin's guard team look very handsome. Of course, when going to the battlefield, all of this set will be replaced. The uniform of the Red Shirts was, in Marin's view, rather unflattened. On the battlefield, the proper target is to attract firepower. On the battlefield, low-key is king.

Therefore, Marin just let the 100 guards usually wear this suit to enter the battlefield, wearing a steel helmet on his head, and wearing a three-quarter breastplate on his body to enhance protection. Moreover, Marin had no plans to equip other soldiers with the uniform. For the time being, ordinary soldiers still wear a white black cross vest, a triangular hat on their heads, and straw shoes on their feet ... Elite soldiers are allowed to wear steel helmets on their heads and three-quarters of their chests. A. But outside the breastplate, a white black cross vest was worn as a neat military uniform.

A few little guys looked at a group of guards wearing very pully red shirts, and they were very handsome. Then they tangled Marin and made a set for them. Even Adler found this suit very handsome ...

Marin also understands this. If not handsome, the British guy will let its Royal Satellite Television wear this uniform in the 21st century?

After entering the castle, the whole family is very envious of the high-end decoration of the castle. In fact, Marin had a plan to have Da Vinci's paintings on the walls of the castle. However, the old boy didn't cooperate very well at the moment, but just drank and drank in the villa allocated by Mary in the city of Denborg, plus learning Frisian and German.

When it comes to Da Vinci, Marin intends to put it on first, but first keep it delicious and delicious. After he has dealt with some more urgent matters, come and talk to this guy.

However, when this old boy returns to his heart, Marin must have asked him to paint more good-quality oil paintings, hanging on the walls of the castle ...

The Hou family visited the whole castle with great interest. Among them, the old Huffmans and the small beauty Angela raised by Marin. Angela is smarter, and she has learned German better now. Then Angela shyly greeted the Huffmans and saluted the lady.

However, the old Huffmans were very enthusiastic about Little Angela, but they were not very happy inside. Mainly because Marin told them that Angela was a girl of the downhill knight family.

In the hearts of the old Huffmans, Marin, who has become a baron, should marry a daughter of a baron's family. No matter how bad it is, you have to marry a daughter of a very strong knight family. The daughter of a fallen knight family seems to be not worthy of their son ...

Although Angela is well-behaved, both old Huffman and Mrs. Mary think that such a girl, although it is a pity to give up, is really not suitable for Marin. However, it is possible to be a lover ...

If Marin knows what they think, he must laugh. The important person who teaches the royal family in the future will not be worthy of him. Just kidding ...

You know, the current Pope Alexander VI, but made his two sons Duke, and also made land. Even if the son-in-law of the royal family is not as favored as the son of the pope, it is not a problem to help get the earl. After all, the emperor has not yet been officially crowned, and there is more room for the pope.

If Marin knew that Angela was actually the most beloved daughter of Pope Julius II in the future, it would be very crazy. You know, the Pope doesn't really like Felis, his youngest illegitimate daughter. Because, Ferris had a wild temperament, and she didn't look good.

In fact, parents also have some contempt for their children. If you are the only child, then you must have thousands of pets. But there are more children. With comparison, there will be kinship. Angela was beautiful and well-behaved, and Julius II had no reason to dislike the daughter. And Ferris is ordinary, with a wild personality and a willful manner. How can she be petted?

In the original history, the Pope had no choice but to plan for Felice to remarry the son of the Duke. Because the two daughters of the pope's first daughter were dead, only Felice remained. But if the beautiful and well-behaved Angela is still there, Julius II will certainly not pay much attention to Felice.

In fact, it is no wonder that in the history of China, there have been famous mothers who watched their children's faces—Mr. Wu Jiang, the mother of Zheng Zhuanggong, was handsome because his youngest son and uncle Duan were handsome, and the oldest son, Zhuanggong, was ugly, Prefer young son. In the end, Wu Jiang finally encouraged his younger son, uncle Duan, to rebel, and intended to replace Zheng Zhuanggong ...

So there are more children. With comparison, face value and personality will also become an important dependency that is not favored by parents ...

Uh ...

In the next few days, Marin accompanied his family on a comprehensive and detailed tour on Texel Island. Marin personally acted as a guide and took the whole family around the island. A family also visited the economic core areas of Marin like Yancheng. Under normal circumstances, as the most important economic core area on the island, ordinary people are strictly prohibited from approaching. But for his family, Marin did not hide it, and took them to see it. Of course, this is also because the family already knew about the existence of Yancheng. Because the coal briquettes consumed by Yancheng were produced by Huffman Manor. However, the family did not know the huge profits produced by Yancheng. Marin did not elaborate on the salt production and profit of Yancheng, so as not to scare his family out.

Speaking of which, today's output in Yancheng has doubled to 2,000 quarts per day. Of these, 1,800 quarts were sold to Wright of the Wiggins Chamber of Commerce. The remaining 200 quarts are mainly supplied to Marin-controlled Wadden Islands. If there is any excess, Marin directly stores it first. Anyway, salt is not easy to break.

At the fishing port of Odeshilde, Marin invites the whole family to eat fresh seafood products. To this end, Marin transferred the chefs in the castle to Oddshild. Along with the chef, there is an iron pan and various spices and spices.

The chefs worked hard according to Marin's instructions, sweet and sour braised, steamed, fried various seafood products, making the family very enjoyable. Especially the three little guys, urged to live in Odeshilde, eat seafood every day ...

Marin smiled and did not object. He knows that seafood is definitely delicious when eaten a few times. But I really want to eat it every day. Within a month, I will definitely eat it.

Anyway, the younger brothers and sisters also rarely come to Texel Island, and Marin vacated a villa in Oddshild to let the three little ones live and let them eat seafood here every day. Moreover, Oddshild is a seaside port with sea breeze blowing every day. It's quite comfortable during the summer season.

Marin arranged a family, lived in Oderschild, and arranged for the family to drink beer and eat seafood every day ~ www.novelhall.com ~ In a short time, the whole family really felt very cool ...

However, Marin himself quietly returned to the castle at night, took out the parchment paper stolen from Mrs. Mary's treasure chest, and began to imitate the document given by the old Count Brock to the title of Baron Savannah ...

几 After several nights of struggle, Marin finally made the fake documents look like a lot. Then, Marin took out the blank parchment paper that he had sent Kohler to buy for a long time, and started the imitation business ...

Marin was very capable of imitating handwriting when he went to school. When many students fail to take the test, they will be asked by the teacher to bring the transcript back to the parents to sign. But in this case, the students who have failed the exam must suffer. So they turned to Marin for help, and Marin helped them to imitate their parents' signatures. In this way, from elementary school to high school, Marin's ability to imitate handwriting has reached a state of myth. Therefore, Marin felt no pressure to imitate the handwriting of Earl Brock. The only problem is the ink problem. After all, if the same ink is different in ink color, it will also make people doubt. To this end, Marin spent a lot of time preparing different colors of ink, so that the ink color of the handwriting looks the same as the genuine document ...

Things went well, Marin quickly forged the relevant documents, and sent his confidant to roll the parchment paper and put it in a specific room for high temperature aging. Then, ice cubes were made from saltpeter, put into the ice cellar, and put the instruments into the ice cellar for low temperature processing ...

After finishing the paperwork, Marin began to tour with his family and took them to Vlieland, Terschelling, Amerland and Schiermonnikoo ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Welcome The majority of book friends come to read, the latest, fastest, and most popular serial works are all at ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Mobile users please go to read.
