Chapter 113 Human Resources
The chatter of these bohemians in the tavern attracted the attention of the patrol, but thanks to someone tipping off the police, they were not caught.

Peter paid the bill and left the tavern.He understood the situation of the Bohemians and probably understood what they should need.

Peter came to the tavern again the next day, pretending to be a businessman and starting promoting the East.

"Everyone, since life is so bad, why don't you try your luck in the East?"

The people who were about to complain began to listen to this man's bragging, which couldn't be true anyway, especially the East, as far as they knew, it had been occupied by heretics, wouldn't it be death to go there.

And judging by his clothes, he must be from another country, or a human trafficker.

"I said, you don't have to work so hard. We won't go." A hired worker said.

"Well, so you're going to be here for the rest of your life, with endless jobs, never more pay, and never enough bread on the table?"

Peter's three consecutive questions stimulated the other party, while the other person was obviously persuaded and asked where the East was.

"Maybe you don't know that a year ago those heretics were defeated by a country called Wallachia and signed a peace treaty. Now they are safe."

Hearing that the heretics had been defeated, everyone showed disbelief.How can this be.

"Is it true that they were defeated?"

"Of course, you can inquire with those who have relatives in the east. The news has already reached here."

Now they have to believe it or not, after all, how could these mud legs have relatives in the east.And judging by what this person said, there is a high probability that it is true.If true, immigration should be OK too.

Peter saw that some people had wavered, so he decided to add the last fire.He suggested to everyone that there is gold and unowned land everywhere, and the local lords also have tax exemption measures. Such preferential terms are something you won't have in decades.

Action is worse than heart, some people plan to pack their bags and go to the East.When asking Peter how to get there, Peter said that there is a Wallachian Chamber of Commerce in Brno, they can go there and ask.

Peter talked a lot dry, and so did the translator he hired.But it can be regarded as convincing some people, and it can be regarded as a gain.

In addition, the local Catholic Church has been corrupted to an astonishing extent, and the catholic church split has intensified the competition for Bohemia, which is actually the money bag.

Because Bohemia's economy is relatively developed, it is an important area where the pope receives money, and the popes in the two areas are competing for it. Therefore, the long-term division of the church and the exploitation of the people in Bohemia have caused people to lose The belief and trust in this religion, and the prestige of the religion have gradually disappeared, and dissatisfaction has become the main emotion of the people towards the church.

Moreover, not only locals live in Bohemia, but also some Germans live here, and the local rulers gave some important positions in the country to the Germans.

But they did not reciprocate, but forced the teaching and dissemination of the culture of their own country, which changed the original life and learning methods and content of the Bohemians, which led to both social and ethnic conflicts in Bohemia. Very sharp.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with expanding the territory and changing the culture, but the method must be used correctly.Squeezing to death all the time will naturally cause dissatisfaction, but they have never learned their lesson.

As the second largest city in Bohemia, Brno has a well-developed textile and metal processing industry.There are also many skilled craftsmen here, but they can also live a better life here, so they declined the invitation to go to the East.

Of course, only a very small number of farmers have the right to settle freely, so it is the poor in those cities who go to the East to try their luck.

Peter's next goal is Prague, the capital of Bohemia, but this is another [-] kilometers away.You have to keep going.

Compared with that Peter, his journey is really no good.After all, in this era, industrial technology has not widened the distance. The most advanced places are Italy and Junbao, and other places are actually the same.

Vienna was also Peter's destination at the beginning, but he didn't think it was right, so he stopped going.All he had to do was go to Prague, then visit Dijon and Paris, and finally take a boat to Aragon and Italy.

----split line----

The news that Wallachia defeated Ottoman and signed the peace treaty did spread here, but it was only limited to the upper rulers, and the people at the bottom had no way of knowing it.Because the Catholic Crusade they established was defeated, and it took hundreds of thousands of gold coins to redeem it.But Wallachia, the Orthodox country, unexpectedly annexed a large area of ​​territory, and forced Osman to agree.This made them feel unbalanced.

So they publicized their defeats and said nothing about Wallachia's victories.This prevented the news of the victory from reaching Central Europe.

And Wallachia's public relations team did promote it, but the direction was in the East and the Balkans.Those Orthodox Christians who were ruled by Ottoman and the small Turkic countries that paid tribute to Ottoman were the most ruthless propagandists, and soon they knew that Ottoman had suffered defeat.

That being the case, don't blame them for being rude.Several small Turkic countries, headed by Karaman, attacked Ottoman westward, and the Orthodox Christians under Ottoman ruled many uprisings in order to resist poll tax and blood tax.But they were all suppressed by Ottoman.

Among them, newly annexed places such as Thessaloniki react the most.This was the case even in Edirne, the original capital, and Governor Suleiman adopted a policy of terror, killing no matter how many people there were.

And he continued to oppress the infidels, confiscating their land and distributing it to Turkic settlers.This is contrary to the previous policy, but it is a way to firmly rule here.

However, Turkic immigrants are numerous.Most of the Balkans are Orthodox Christians, and such a policy naturally aroused their resistance.

Suleiman, who was dealing with a dozen riots a day in Plovdiv, sanctioned the use of force directly, without compromise.Wallachia took advantage of this to absorb these refugees, and did not expect Ottoman's policy to help itself.

At present, the entire Balkans has a maximum of 300 million people. If the area cannot be expanded at present, then the population should be expanded.
