Accompany Da Vinci's Super God Day
Chapter 85
It's a treat to deal with smart people.
Henry VII was only startled for a few seconds when he heard this sentence, and then whispered "I see".
Leonardo stirred the teacup gently with a silver spoon, and said unhurriedly: "As a monarch, you have enough capital, and you should be equal to them."
Weaken, moderate, check and balance.
Everything depends on whether you are willing to start and make the due decision.
Heidi listened to his conversation with Henry VII, and suddenly thought of her former ally, Lorenzo de Medici.
Both he and this gentleman have the same problem - too much focus on Kiyoyu, and trying to win over everyone.
This is a means of seeking stability, trying to attract the majority of people's evaluation of them, so that most of the city residents will use a tone of awe and approval when referring to these two adults.
But this is not enough.
Want to win, want to win, and more importantly, what you really own.
Reputation, reputation, title, and the approval of people around are not as useful as having real power in your hands.
"As you can see, I am expanding the size of the navy, and I am preparing to form a fleet with sufficient defense capabilities," Henry Tudor looked at them and said, "But just as I was recruiting sailors, my informant told I, the Spanish fleet, have set sail to the east."
...they went looking for China?
Heidi just bid farewell to the overseas students she personally selected two months ago. They will go to the East with the fleet and study there for at least two years.
At the same time, the Eastern fleet will arrive at the Port of Pisa and the Port of Genoa one after another according to the map——
Spain also wants to get involved in this matter?
"They don't seem to be sure of the location, but the fleet is also huge." Henry VII sighed and shook his head. "It is foreseeable that most of the future wars will be developed at sea."
Heidi frowned and thought for a while, then got up and said, "I'll go talk to them, Leo, you stay here first."
The king got up to send her away, uncertain: "The peace treaty with hundreds of rules was really drawn up by that Mr. Machiavelli?"
He looks like he's in his early twenties.
"I helped revise it." Leonardo blinked narrowly, "It's not easy to read?"
Henry VII coughed dryly: "It can barely be straightened out."
When Heidi went to the Admiralty, she felt a vague sense of unease.
She doesn't mind if Spain or Portugal find China. Whether they open up a port in India or Vietnam, even if they have a relationship with the emperor of China, it won't affect the overall situation.
But once they find America, and then start a large-scale black slave trade...all unstable factors will be on the verge of eruption.
She quickened her pace and frowned unconsciously.
Triangular trade has natural geographical advantages.
Africa, America, Europe.
Cold and warm currents will push the boat back and forth, and the wind will flow smoothly all the way.
As early as 1000 years ago, Africa was invaded and plundered by the Arab Empire, and black slaves were escorted to the Mesopotamian plains to work and cultivate. They lived like livestock without any difference.
Once the Portuguese or Spaniards discovered America, they would inevitably establish colonies in search of gold and silver, and at the same time sell a large number of black people here, making plantations spread throughout America like locusts.
Naval Minister Pedro Rucelle was enjoying canned food with his men and hadn't had time to wipe off the sugar water from his beard when the queen visited.
"Mr. Rucelle," she signaled the idlers to step back first, and said straight to the point: "Henry VII told me just now that their people noticed that the Spaniards had sent a fleet to sea."
"So fast?" Lu Qilei spread out the map on the long table with a serious expression: "What do you mean?"
"Do you still remember the Africa and America I talked to you earlier?" Heidi speeded up her speech: "Our original plan was to gradually explore after we reached a stable relationship and foreign trade with China, but now I personally I think this matter cannot be delayed any longer.”
She couldn't confirm how many fleets the Spaniards had sent, and whether they had discovered anything by mistake.
Some things will be very difficult if you don't act first.
"I probably understand what you mean—" Ruchelle said uncertainly: "But if we send a fleet to America now, there may be no problem with the dispatch of ships and personnel, but it is impossible for all the crew to stay and help reclaim the land. and guard the fort."
Most of the young and middle-aged people in the country have already invested in the development of industry and commerce. At this time, it is completely impossible to forcibly set aside some people to go to unfamiliar countries to colonize wasteland.
Heidi went blank for a few seconds, and realized that the population of their country was not enough for this extra burden.
National defense, agriculture, commerce, industry, people are needed everywhere.
Although the birth rate was high in the Middle Ages, the death rate was also high.
"Prison," she murmured, "how many people are still in our prisons?"
"Do you mean..." Minister Rucellai said in amazement, "You want to exile those jailers and prisoners?!"
"It's not exile, it's dispatch," Heidi said in a deep voice, "They can stay here for a long time, or they can choose to reduce their sentence based on their work."
Italy has experienced wars and rebellions in the past few years, and many people have been imprisoned, whether they are war criminals or criminals.
Throw them in that new land and maybe save a lot of money.
"Understood," Rucelle rubbed his brows and said, "I will inform the House of Representatives about this as soon as possible."
"Be quick," she said, taking a deep breath. "I don't think Spain will be kind to those black people."
Once they squeeze out the labor value of those blacks, Spain's capital market will be injected with start-up funds that can be called terrifying, and the subsequent industrial revolution and arms race cannot be underestimated.
She absolutely must resolve these matters ahead of Isabella.
The British left after staying in Florence for a month, and when they left, everyone seemed to have passed an exam, looking tired and lethargic.
They signed a complete and comprehensive "Treaty of Florence" with Italy, which directly started the decade-long cooperation between the two countries.
In the past ten years, the two countries will jointly complete cooperation in academic research and other projects, and will also assist each other in many affairs.
Henry VII talked with Leonardo many times, and there was a little more determination in his eyes when he left.
With the arrival of the March Festival, news also came from the oracle.
——After Henry VII returned, he began to disband many nobles' private armed forces, and began to implement the system of recruiting mercenaries.
As if he was a different person, he became more vigorous and decisive in doing things, and he showed no mercy to some old guys.
In just a few months, dozens of old nobles were tried and punished for 'treason'. Not only was their land confiscated, but their property and titles were also confiscated.
This liquidation came a bit late, but it also caused a lot of noise and panic.
The good-natured king suddenly showed his minions and sharp edges, which made people avoid him.
Meanwhile, Florence's industrial district welcomes more new gadgets.
His Royal Highness, Leonardo di Piero da Vinci, not only put the needle grinding machine designed six years ago into mass production and operation, but also created a miraculous textile machine.
This should not have been a novelty—after all, almost every Florentine knew that this gentleman could do anything.
But when the residents and workers saw the machine roaring and spinning, under the noise of steam and gears, the expressions on their faces were like seeing a gypsy bursting into flames.
This is really incredible!
You only need to add a bucket of coal and prepare enough raw materials for the machine, and it can weave large sections of cloth at an incredible speed, and even twist out quite beautiful overlapping patterns!
In the past, it might take forty days for craftsmen to polish a sewing needle, but now it only takes four days.
They no longer need dozens of people to work hard day and night, they only need to send people to watch the night to complete it, and the things made by those labors are even better than those made by hands!
More and more machines began to be created and promoted, and mechanical workshops gradually became popular in Milan and Genoa.
As soon as the March Festival was over, Florence officially established the country's first mechanized factory with a scale of [-] people. The production efficiency was [-] times higher than that of ten years ago.
Just when all the city residents were cheering, the boats full of death row prisoners and reform-through-labor prisoners sailed southwest along the ocean current.
The target is America.

Leonardo stirred the teacup gently with a silver spoon, and said unhurriedly: "As a monarch, you have enough capital, and you should be equal to them."
