Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1445 Letter from afar

When the Black Death began to spread from London, because the villagers of the village of Yam in Derbyshire closed the road, the deadly plague did not continue to spread northward, so the village of Yam was later called the hometown of sages.

It was a priest who called everyone to stay, and the decision was made by all the villagers, most of whom were miners. Yam Village has been an important mineral lode in England since the Middle Ages, so the English government set the junction of the north-south traffic arteries in Yam Village.

Malmesbury is located at the confluence of two small streams in Wiltshire. It has always been the center where learned people gather. The moat around Malmesbury has an exquisite and reasonable layout. Malmesbury's inability to accommodate the high volume of traffic is one reason the area is underdeveloped industrially.

The moat was an important defensive measure in the Middle Ages. If the English Channel was a natural moat, then the Atlantic Ocean was a sea of ​​moats that separated the Americas from the European continent. They could build their ideal new country in the virgin land of North America with peace of mind.

Jefferson did not agree to the acquisition of Louisiana by Congress because of the Constitution, but he did not say that if the American people gave Congress the power to acquire Louisiana, he would not agree to it. He could buy a piece of land that is almost the same size as the current US land. Land is of course very cost-effective, not to mention that Napoleon is so short of money now.

Little William Pitt was as weak as Delmid when he was young, so that he could not go to school like ordinary children, so he could only ask the pastor Edward Wilson to teach him at home.

It may be that weak children tend to develop their minds towards the dark side. The Earl of Malmesbury brought news about Santo Domingo to Georgiana. Because he was worried that the French would take the opportunity to occupy Trinidad, the British also sent Looking at the troops, the battle situation can only be described by the word tragic.

Plantations were burned, massacres and torture prevailed, towns were razed to the ground, and many people were drowned. The French even set up temporary gas chambers on the ship, suffocated 400 captives with volcanic sulfur, and then sank the ship.

War can drive people into lunatics. Georgiana can hardly believe that the very gentle-looking Leclerc would give such a cruel order.

This is a war crime. Even if Delmid can learn it at home for a certain period of time in the future, he will still hear about it from his classmates when he goes to school. This is not something to boast about like "my dad is a fireman".

She hates war, but Montesquieu wrote in the book that the republic system is the most suitable for colonization. William Pitt, Jr. was committed to the colonization of Australia, hanged adults who stole 1 pound, sent children to When going to Australia to colonize, the same method is not applicable to France. Adults go to Santo Domingo and never return, let alone children.

Even the Swiss of the Foreign Legion were reluctant to go, mutinied before boarding the ship, and probably only prisoners could be sent there.

The prisoners in the prison also need to eat food, and they have to be guarded to watch them. It is a very simple reason, if the food is limited and the population is small, each person will get more.

According to the secret report of the anti-smuggling police Dubois, Napoleon has banned grain exports since last year. All the prisoners involved in grain smuggling have been arrested in prison. trial.

John Milton once wrote in Paradise Lost that the Heavenly Father, sitting in the holy temple in heaven, has already made a comprehensive plan for all things, and he has long been aware of this commotion. He said to his favorite son, these disobedients, two armies against each other, armies against each other, the war is very fierce because I let them, set them free, you know, created them equal, but some of them Slightly damaged by the crime, but the damage is not noticeable because I suspended their sentences.

She really couldn't give this order, and felt that she didn't have the authority. She just told Dubois, and she had no way of knowing whether he would tell Napoleon.

See, that's the advantage of dying early, Lily's soul won't be as corrupted as Georgiana's.

Napoleon's eating habits are very frugal. He is not a gourmet. He will be very happy eating Italian pasta. There is no need to hire a few meat cutters to cut meat for him. He is just creating jobs. The nobles and rich people are willing to spend money to feed the poor.

She hired 20 townspeople from Sevres to clean the house and take care of the garden for her. She also hired some cooks from Paris to cook for the almshouse. Their wages were not paid from the funds allocated by Napoleon. It's charity.

Taking advantage of the opportunity that the church was busy with Easter Mass, she wanted to seize the opportunity as much as possible.

Creativity is needed to create a large number of job opportunities. The automobile manufacturing industry was originally a very good industry, but at the beginning of the 19th century, there were no cars, only horse-drawn carriages, and even if the carriages were ready, it would be useless without horses. The streets of Paris were still so narrow that carriages If there are too many, it will be easy to congest. Bonaparte must plan the city before proceeding to the next step.

Not all of the 12 arrondissements of Paris are poor. The neighborhoods that need relief are mainly in the East City. Saint-Germain, near the Bois de Boulogne, the Seine River, and the direction of Versailles are relatively rich, which means that fewer people get jobs through relief. up.

Paris is not the whole world. Although the provinces are being swallowed up by Paris, there are still many rural people who currently do not have any relief guarantees.

Gordan Poitvin’s friend Jill Gobert printed the potato planting method into a booklet and distributed it in the countryside. Half of the 800,000 yuan was used to buy Irish and German potatoes, as long as the rural people are not picky eaters Eat potatoes to pass this bad year, anyway, Georgiana's meal already includes potatoes.

She would not persuade Bonaparte to eat potatoes. Eating meat is now a symbol of wealth and status in France. What's more, he has to collect taxes through meat products. The richer pay more taxes, the poorer can get more tax relief Of course, it is impossible at this stage. Foreign banks want to take advantage of the famine in France and the imminent withdrawal of troops from the Netherlands to avoid debts.

Even if Louisiana is not sold, tobacco taxes and mercury mining rights can still be mortgaged. Greed is a passion that never grows old, and it is not yet time to enjoy peace.

Josephine is sometimes confused, and Georgiana is a little worried about whether she is the opponent of Mrs. Jean Sley, the historical novelist. Now Mrs. Montesquieu has returned to Georgiana, although Napoleon gave Mrs. Montesquieu to her at first. He was transferred because he didn't like Montesquieu's "fallacy" and was afraid that Mrs. Montesquieu would influence Georgiana.

The Montesquieu family is also a prominent family in France. It is easy to investigate the Earl of Malmesbury, the mentor of William Pitt. He was studying at Pembroke College, Cambridge University. Although Pretiman was a tutor, the two quickly became friends. After Pitt became prime minister, he became the bishop of Lincoln and Winchester. Later, he resigned from teaching. He became an Earl, entered the House of Lords, and became an important supporter of William Pitt Jr. in Parliament.

Sies, too, took off his priest's robe and was now a patriarch of the republic. But there are also some people who will not betray their beliefs no matter how intimidating or intimidating. In the French countryside, not only many people cannot speak French, but some communes have only a few hundred residents. In these communes, well-educated people usually need to undertake the gathering. It is an important social function of information and reading government decrees. Napoleon tried to draw the diocesan clergy into his ranks of "moral officers" in the church-state agreement.

It's a pity that he didn't succeed, and Georgiana wanted to see if the new housekeeper she had a crush on could do it.

What is the job of a senior official? Of course, he is not domineering and bullying like the aristocrat dealt with by the bold Charles IV. He also has to allocate food, recruit troops, build various projects, and deal with the church.

It was rare to come across such an enlightened cardinal as Henri Gregoire, and that cousin of his must have been protecting him.

Georgiana just wanted to invite Mrs. Montesquieu to visit the cemetery where there was a trouble, and just when she arrived at the door, she saw Michelle crying alone. Seeing Georgiana and Mrs. Montesquieu immediately wiped away her tears dry.

"What happened?" asked Madame de Montesquieu.

"Nothing." Michelle twitched.

Georgiana didn't want to laugh, and now she felt like laughing.

"It's nothing to say that you have something to say, tell me."

Michelle hesitated, and handed a crumpled letter to Georgiana.

"Miss Aguesso and I used to be classmates. Mr. Segui's family invested a lot of money in Santo Domingo, just like mine." Michele said with tears, "Now they have nothing."

Georgiana did not answer the letter, nor did she hug Michel, and it was Madame de Montesquieu who took the two of them back to the house.

That day Georgiana didn't see anyone again, including Chauffier who came to say goodbye. She didn't even dare to pray to God, because this matter was too sinful.
