Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1290 Indigo

According to French wedding customs, usually a newlywed couple needs to start preparing for the wedding 2 to 3 months in advance.

White wedding dresses became popular after the First World War, and before the First World War, wedding dresses were blue. If the family really has no money to buy a blue wedding dress, you can use a blue handkerchief instead.

Georgiana now regrets posing as the girl with the pearl earring. The girl in the painting is wearing a blue turban, as if it was an invitation: Hey, that boy who sees the painting, why don't you come and take me? marry away?

Originally, according to the original plan, the gift package sent to the homeless contained a bar of chocolate and a bar of soap, but now the chocolate has become marzipan.

There is a legend in ancient Greece. Before marrying a woman he loves, a young Greek man suddenly got the news that his father was going to die. He decided to go back to Athens to see his father for the last time. He promised the bride that he would come back before the wedding, but His estimated time was incorrect, and it was already three months later when he came back.

During those three months, the bride hanged herself in despair that her man would never return. After God knew this, he was moved by their love, so he turned the woman into an almond tree. From then on, marzipan represents eternal love. Guests will also receive marzipan from the newlyweds as a testimony of their relationship.

Another marzipan, another blue cloth bag of soap and a handkerchief, if you don't understand what it means, then the soldier is doomed.

The National Day is July 14, and probably in mid-September or mid-October, the St. Martin Canal will start. As for whether to come or not to work, the soldiers decide for themselves.

This canal will pass through the Bastille Square and extend to the north of Paris. It has a total length of more than 100 kilometers and was personally supervised by the first consul Napoleon Bonaparte. Coal, wine and other daily necessities, Venetian-style buildings will be built on both sides of the canal.

There will also be 9 sluices on the canal to control the water level. To complete this project requires a lot of manpower, but priority is given to recruiting veterans, and then recruiting workers from the society. Those who bring the gift bag will have special treatment.

The newly established Baggage Department was in charge of distribution, and the first batch of 20,000 pockets were quickly robbed, but this time the crazy looting did not cause chaos, it was more like a joke at a wedding, and there was happiness and celebration everywhere.

So Pomona, or Georgiana, was married twice, and some girls were never married at all.

It reminded her of Scarlett and Sue in Gone with the Wind, the line Sue said after Scarlett married Frank.

The Anti-French Alliance was established because European countries believed that France was a threat. With the kidnapping of the Pope's special envoy, the Corsicans did another frame-up, and the United States became the driving force behind the whole incident.

If the peace talks are unsuccessful, who will be the biggest beneficiary? Neutral countries, they made a lot of money through the hostile relationship between the Anti-French Alliance and France, but ordinary small countries did not dare to provoke the British navy, so the United States, which was far away in the New World, became the biggest suspect.

Of course, the American ambassador refused to admit this kind of framing, but Russia, France, Britain, Turkey, Portugal, and Germany who attended the peace talks in Rambouillet had all acquiesced to this matter. President Jackson, who took over from Washington, was an emotional person. He is an excellent soldier, but not an excellent politician. He lacks the ability to keep a clear head in the face of various situations to get out of trouble.

Besides, the New World is so far away from Europe. When the president's order is passed to the American ambassador, the anti-American alliance has already discussed how to send troops.

France will definitely send troops to the colonies. It is up to the British allies to take this opportunity to take back the colonies lost in the War of Independence. After the general direction is decided, the next thing will be easy to deal with. France did not directly declare war. The tariffs on commodities have been raised to sky-high prices. American cotton was originally taxed at one franc per quintal. After the amnesty was issued, it was changed to 60 francs, and another 800 francs had to be paid. The tariff on indigo was raised from 15 francs to 900 francs. 150 francs raised to 400 francs.

In addition to American cotton yarn, there is also Indian cotton yarn in the UK. If you don’t buy American cotton, you can also use Indian cotton to replace it. Although the grain harvest in the Baltic Sea was poor, the sugar in the islands of the British Andales was not affected. However, because of the war, the sugar in the Andales could not be sold, and the price continued to drop. However, due to the small population of the United Kingdom, despite the continuous increase in consumption, the sugar was still growing. There is an import glut and the price has dropped from Sh55 to Sh32 per quintal.

The first ruler of France wanted to distribute sugar, so the original sugar ban was abolished directly. The French had cheap sugar to eat, and the British also made money. Everyone was very happy. Russia does not start from the Western Hemisphere, but can also go to North America through the Bering Strait from the Eastern Hemisphere. As for whether the Germans and Turks go or not, Ambassador Caprara has repeatedly stated that the church is not involved in secular conflicts.

The scavengers are mercenaries from the United States, but they have no loyalty to the United States. If they had loyalty, they would not be mercenaries.

Anyway, they were watching the war between Muggles, and no one thought of assassinating Napoleon at all.

Indigo is a blue-purple pigment that is commonly used by girls to dye wedding dresses.

Now that tariffs are so high, of course it is no longer possible to use such expensive dyes to dye wedding dresses.

There are still stocks in the warehouses of various chambers of commerce, but Miss Georgiana has chosen white as the dress for the opening ceremony of the canal.

This color does not produce sewage, which is exactly the purpose of building the canal, but has nothing to do with the purity of the bride herself.

From here on, dreams have nothing to do with history.

Fighting is a man's business, and the American militia is definitely not an opponent of the French army, just as vulnerable as the Hungarian irregular light cavalry.

In this decadent era, Napoleon illuminated the entire era like a burning meteorite.

Don't American movies like to shoot comets hitting the earth? This time, let's meet the impact of the meteorite.

In the east farther than Egypt, there is a unified country. After Qin Shihuang completed the unification war, after a short period of governance, in the Han Dynasty, there was a foreign place called the Huns, which condensed the originally scattered hearts.

Since he wants to be Charlemagne, she can help him become Charlemagne, and even do better than Charlemagne.

Don't use patriotism to ask a woman's loyalty. The family is the only force that can compete with the country.

Under great pressure, the church's worship procession resumed, and the church bells began to ring again. She didn't hear the bells at her first wedding, but she hoped she could hear them this time.

She was still wearing the imperial high-waisted skirt, but the groom had changed. This daydream seemed to be getting more and more absurd.

"Miss!"

Just when Georgiana was about to laugh, Sophie ran to the suite at St. Luke's Palace in a panic.

This time it is still not the king's suite, but his lounge. Because his name is Napoleon, this suite is also called the Napoleon suite.

"What's wrong?"

"The first governor told you to go there, there is something urgent!"

She didn't ask any questions, and followed Sophie directly out of the small living room.

When she came to Napoleon's study, she found that the outside was full of people, and they all got out of the way when they saw her appear.

Georgiana walked into the study and found that Napoleon's face was very ugly, his brows were tightly wrinkled, his eyes were full of murderous looks, and he looked very terrifying.

"I have a mission for you." He said in a grim voice.

"What happened?"

"A soldier named Cobain committed suicide. This is the second soldier who committed suicide because of love within a month."

She doesn't find it strange that there are many people who play with other people's feelings in this world.

She just lamented that 10 years passed so quickly, and the scars healed up so quickly, as if Marie Antoinette died badly enough.

"What's her name, and where does she live?" asked Georgiana.

Napoleon said nothing.

"Don't worry, I won't hit her." She smiled and said, "Do you think I'm that kind of violent person?"

"Then how do you deal with her?" asked a second lieutenant.

"Go do your work, and who will lead me the way."

"Me!" a lieutenant volunteered to shout.

She looked around the crowd again, and finally pointed to one person, "Just you, come with us."

"Me? Why?" The soldier asked inexplicably.

"Because you look scary enough." Georgiana said with a smile, "Bring me two more military doctors, the ones who can vaccinate."

The others didn't understand what was going on, but His Excellency Bonaparte laughed out loud.

"You guys follow along, there is a good show to watch." Your Excellency Bonaparte said, "Follow her way in the future, and see who dares to bully you in the future."

"Yes!" the soldiers shouted in unison.

"Did the child's parents know?" Georgiana asked.

"Leave it to me over there, you just need to deal with that woman well," said His Excellency Bonaparte.

"You know, not all girls are that bad," Georgiana said.

"I know." He said calmly.

"Don't put more shackles in the law," she begged.

This time he didn't answer, and his secretary closed the study door.

Surrounded by so many people, it should be a very beautiful thing for some people.

But she didn't feel that kind of joy at all.

On the contrary, she felt very sad, but she still said nothing, and left St. Luke's Palace with the group of soldiers eager for revenge.
