The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 747: The idea of ​​replacing the Statue of Liberty

\u003ccontent\u003e

As a Governor, Albert had a plan, but still had to report to Marin. Because of the good wind, the ship from New York to Emden arrived in just a month.

After Marin received Albert's report, he appreciated Albert's idea. Because, the reason why Marin asked Albert to develop Manhattan Island in New York was not for fixed-point development, but for expansion.

Long Island, New York, is the most suitable place for expansion after Manhattan Island. It is blocked by rivers from the North American continent and is less likely to be attacked by militant Indian tribes other than the Delaware. Moreover, Upper New York Bay is indeed an excellent deep-water port...

As a result, the plan was naturally signed by Marin. At the same time, 500 cattle and more farm implements were arranged to be shipped to New York to complete the transaction on the western Long Island site. Of course, a lot of logging tools were also sent to complete the tree felling on the western part of Long Island to make room. And Albert wanted to transfer more than 10,000 immigrants from Cape Breton Island, and Marin also approved it.

After all, in Marin's positioning, Cape Breton Island is just a springboard for attacking the North American continent, plus a coal base. When it comes to development, the weather is better in New York.

After signing the document, though, Marin stared at a map of New York's Hudson Estuary and froze...

why? Because Marin looked at the little dot (a small island) on the lower left of Manhattan Island at the mouth of the Hudson River on the map, and suddenly remembered something...

It seems that that tiny little island is the famous Liberty Island in later generations. Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that this Liberty Island is where the Statue of Liberty, the symbol of old beauty, is placed...

Of course, history must have been changed with Marin's meddling in the North American colonies. On this small island, the Statue of Liberty may not be placed in the future.

"How about I ask Michelangelo to carve a statue of myself and put it in the place of the Statue of Liberty, which will replace the Statue of Liberty and become the symbol of the North American continent?" Marin touched a small handful of his chin. Beard thinks...

Thinking about it, it makes me feel. After a merchant ship sails into New York Harbor, I will see Marin's statue there from afar. For example, what about it? Hmm... also brought a clear fire to America..."

"The left hand... It's embarrassing to be empty... Just take a Bible, it looks a little taller... Moreover, it also symbolizes that I have spread Christianity in America... This is very important in Europe..."

"Looks like there's one more cross... But, my left and right hands are full... Where should I put it... Oh,

By the way, you can hang the cross on your chest..."

Marin took out a piece of paper, wrote and drew, and began to draw a design for his statue...

"In the future, this island will not teach Liberty Island, let's call it Marin Island... It doesn't seem to be domineering enough... Why not call it Saint Marin Island? This one can have..."

"However, being canonized as a saint seems to be after death... Forget it, let's leave this to Robert (Marin's illegitimate son), anyway, I intend to raise him to be a pope... When I die, this will happen. The goods have almost become the Pope, it is not difficult to make him a saint..."

Marin, who was caught in yy, was immersed in it for several days, unable to extricate himself. When he saw Robert, who was crawling all over the floor, crawling beside him while eating, Marin, with a fatherly expression on his face, picked up Robert, who was wearing open crotch pants, and said encouragingly:

"Son, work hard! Try to be a pope in the future. In this way, after I die, you can make me a saint for fun..."

After speaking, Marin actually took out a Bible and stuffed it into the hands of Robert, who was bewildered. …

Angela and Ferris, who were eating at the same table, were stunned for a moment, and their faces were full of confusion... In the end, the two women laughed together, laughing so hard that they couldn't stand up... And little Caesar and little Robert were full of Confused face - what happened to the adults?

"Why are you laughing? What's so funny? Let's laugh again!" Malin threatened in a rage.

"Let Robert Jr. be the Pope, the idea is really good! Well... I will be the Pope's great aunt..." Angela laughed.

"Pfft—" Marin also sprayed...

"The Pope's...big...aunt..."

It will be Ferris' turn to be unhappy:

"Hmph, you two... Robert will definitely become the Pope in the future. At that time, I will be the Pope's old mother..."

Marin laughed too:

"You...haha...the Pope's eldest...aunt...the Pope's old mother...this is the worst time the Pope has been hacked..."

Then, the three of them made a fuss...

When Marin expressed the idea of ​​asking Michelangelo to help him carve a statue on Liberty Island in New York Harbor (no, it doesn't have a name yet, it can be called Marin Island in the future), the two women Interested in:

"This is a good thing to gain a lot of fame. I think my father would like to do it like this..." Ferris said excitedly. As the youngest daughter of Julius II, Felice knew very well that her father was a person who cared about fame very much, and he definitely wanted his name to be remembered. If you get him a statue and leave it in the Lateran Temple at the headquarters of the Holy See, it will definitely make him very happy...

"Hey - Felice, you have a good idea! I can hire Michelangelo to carve a statue for my father-in-law, put it at the headquarters of the Holy See, and pat his old man's ass..."

In fact, there was one more thing Marin didn't say in his heart - just for the young Michelangelo to practice with the Pope's father-in-law. By the time I invited him, the child's sculpting level was almost mature... that's not right, it seems that the famous male nude sculpture "David" was completed in 1501. Now, although Michelangelo is only in his early 30s, he is already a famous artist in the art world, and he does not need to practice his skills...

However, who cares about him, don't care about the famous masters, I beat him to death with gold coins... Before the construction of his "Genesis" starts, let him help carve a statue of Julius II first...

Later, let this guy carve a huge statue for himself and stand on Liberty Island to replace the future Statue of Liberty and become a landmark of New York. Even, become the landmark of the whole America...\u003c/content\u003e
