Published at 14th of June 2023 05:28:12 AM

After the Pope's Decree was issued, there was an uproar throughout Europe. People suddenly discovered that visiting the kiln was a horrible thing that would kill lives. As a result, the people who visited the kiln suddenly disappeared.

前 Before the Reformation took place, the authority of the Pope was unparalleled. Therefore, the Pope's Decree is very effective. Moreover, this time the Pope issued a decree, not a tax increase or something, it was totally saving everyone's lives. Therefore, people are still willing to implement it.

But this is a pain for women who betrayed the flesh. Because this decrement broke their financial path and livelihood. Of course, who has the mood to control the lives of these women?

They gritted their teeth against the Pope but couldn't help it. Who made them just a group of weak women, except for the flesh, they had nothing ...

倒 Unlucky with these women, and our great navigator Mr. Columbus ...

Because the Pope's Decree stated that syphilis was brought back from the "barren continent" by his crew. In fact, Columbus also knew that syphilis was indeed brought back by a sailor of his Sicilian origin. At the same time, some sailors died during the voyage due to syphilis.

Originally, Columbus, who returned in June, was a great hero in the eyes of the Spaniards. However, after the Pope's decree was issued, Columbus's reputation suddenly smelled ...

Bringing back the terrible syphilis has made everyone tremble, causing many people to start hating Columbus as the "culprit". Although it was not Columbus himself who brought back the syphilis, Columbus had to carry it ...

Alas, Columbus, who was still a hero some time ago, instantly became a bear that everyone shouted ...

Walking on the street, people gave pointers to Columbus:

看 "Look! That is the disaster star, who brought back the barbaric disease from the barren continent. He wants to destroy Europa!"

"Mom, this bastard, everyone throws him!" Then a bunch of rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves (at this time Europe has no tomatoes) were thrown at the former hero Columbus.

连 Even Columbus sponsors, Queen Isabella I and her husband King Ferdinand II of Aragon, have begun to discuss whether to continue to sponsor Columbus sailing.

"Dear, do you still continue to sponsor Columbus's voyage? I didn't see him bring back wealth, but he brought back terrible syphilis!" Ferdinand II was a little bit angry. At first, he did not agree with Isabella I's sponsorship of Columbus sailing, and it was Isabella I who persuaded him.

"But didn't he find India? We can have a colony." Queen Isabella I was still very interested in overseas expansion. She was an ambitious woman.

"But, that's not India at all. The Pope said, it's a barren continent!" Ferdinand II countered.

怎么 "How do you know it's not India?" Isabella I asked.

"If it is India, what about spices? Gold? Columbus only saw a group of barbaric, undressed indigenous people. The true India is a developed and prosperous country!"

女王 Queen Isabella I is silent ...

那 "What do you say then?" Isabella I asked.

"Cancel the follow-up exploration plan, let's do it first. Occupying a wild continent is useless!" Ferdinand II complained.

"No, my dear, occupying the island currently discovered has a purpose!"

"What is it?" Ferdinand II asked.

"Grow sugarcane!"

"Sugarcane? You mean get sucrose?"

对 "Yes, those islands are very hot and are very suitable for sugar cane cultivation. We can open sugar cane plantations and sugar mills on the island and get it back to Europe for sale!" Isabella I said confidently.

好 "Okay ... good idea! But the islands are too hot for Europeans to live on those islands for a long time, and they are not adapted to tropical labor ..." Ferdinand II said hesitantly.

"It's okay, we can ask Portugal to buy slaves to work!" Obviously, Isabella I had a plan.

"Make sense ... So, what should Columbus do?"

"Are you sure Columbus brought back syphilis?"

"I am convinced that Her Majesty the Pope sent a person to Sicily to investigate, and it was indeed brought back by the Columbus crew."

"Isn't Columbus the place where India was found?"

"I heard friends in Italy say that there are two types of Indians, one is white like Arabs, and the other is black. Columbus discovered brown-yellow races, but they look like Chinese in the Far East. It's savage behind. It is said that Huaxia is more prosperous than Europe. And "The Travels of Marco Polo" also shows this.

"So we've been cheated?"

应该 "It should be ... but isn't it sugarcane?"

"My mother did not sail for sugar cane, but to find India!" Isabella I broke out.

The Queen Queen did not care about the introduction of syphilis, anyway, as a woman, she would not go to the kiln. However, it took so much money to discover that it was not India, which made the Queen angry.

"Are you going sailing after that?" Ferdinand II asked, seeing his erupting wife.

"Navigate your hammer! Come here, pass my order, remove Governor Columbus, and confiscate the official residence and property that 朕 gave him!" The queen who failed to achieve her purpose turned her face completely ...

"Dear, please calm down, without Columbus, who will lead the team to the Indies then? Aren't you sending someone to grow sugar cane?"

"My old lady is very calm. Except for Columbus, many people in the expeditionary fleet were ours before. You can also send a captain to continue to sail to the islands that are discovered. Because navigation charts and hydrographic data have long been recorded." Although Bella I was angry, she was not stupid.

"Why did you fire Columbus?"

"Are you stupid? Did you forget the previous agreement reached between Columbus and us? He wanted the commander of the fleet and a 10% return on the loot. In addition, he is still the Indian Islands ... Ah, it should be a barren island What if the old lady removed him, it would save 10% of the spoils and the position of the governor ... "In fact, Isabella I later withdrew Columbus in 1500 to save a lot of spoils. . In other words, the queen is black. Of course, in history, the Queen did not confiscate all of Columbus's property. After all, Columbus has great credit for not doing too much. Today, Columbus is proven to have brought back syphilis ~ www.novelhall.com ~. The crime is not small. In the anger of the queen, even Columbus's house and property were confiscated.

"Mrs. High opinion! Mrs. Mighty!" Ferdinand II immediately gave the fart to the black-bellied daughter-in-law. Speaking of which, this King of Aragon is not as powerful as his wife, Queen Isabella. Because the Kingdom of Castile is stronger than the Kingdom of Aragon.

In this way, Columbus, a Spanish hero and Spanish aristocrat, was kicked out of his luxurious official residence in a blink of an eye by Queen Isabella and turned into a tramp.

Fortunately, Columbus saved a sum of money in Genoa's bank, which Queen Isabella did not know. With this money, Columbus is not too poor. However, this deposit was not much, because Columbus did not expect that he would be copied by the Queen. Therefore, this money is only enough for Columbus to reluctantly care for the elderly and want to live a noble life again, that is not to be thought about.

Just as soon as he left the official residence, Columbus was surrounded by a group of dark-skinned ladies ...

It turned out that this is a group of kiln sisters who lost their business because of the Pope's decree. Today, they have a difficult life and it is inevitable that they will have resentment. However, they dare not resent the Pope, let alone avenge the Pope. So they hated Columbus who brought back syphilis ...

Before Columbus was noble, they did not dare to behave like that. Today, Columbus was abolished by the queen as a nobleman and rushed out of the official residence. Then, a group of unemployed kiln sisters who received the news surrounded Columbus on the street ...

Then, I do n't know who shouted "Sisters, tickle him!" Then, a group of sisters in the kiln started to scratch and scratch Columbus ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Welcome the majority of book friends to read, the latest, fastest, most Fire serial works are all in ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Mobile users please read.
