Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1969 Behind closed doors (3)

The archbishop's face looked very flat, as if he was perfunctory.

Georgiana quickly understood that this was probably a "help". It is often the case that poor students are squeezed out by wealthy families when there is only one place available. Although the soldier whose name she didn't even know had paid with his life, he was not as useful as Layla's father who was alive.

What's more, if the girl named Leila is really unavailable, then send her to the "girls' school", although the so-called girls' school is still gone.

These two people talked and sang, almost made her faint. It is estimated that some people still hope that Napoleon will bring Josephine out. Not only is she a wife with legal procedures, but she is also better at receiving people.

She is not idle either, if she also stays in Xingyuan, then she will not know the situation of the university. Of course, if she doesn't go out, she won't cause trouble and delay so many people's schedules.

Anyway, they wanted to hear that it was all her fault, and she admitted it herself.

She suddenly knew what Severus said, what Albus did was right, and what it felt like to be wrong if you didn't listen to him.

It is difficult for her to explain to people like Schaptal who can't do speculative business, the tulip mania in the Netherlands, the South Sea bubble in the UK, and the Mississippi bubble in France. There is also a characteristic of British railway speculation that will follow the arrival of the railway era in the future, that is, speculators believe that they have seized the opportunity and can win huge profits.

There is no such thing as a guaranteed profit in this world. Before Japan’s real estate bubble burst, many people believed that real estate would continue to rise.

This is the most deadly.

At that time, British railways had surpassed canals and horse-drawn carriages and became the main means of transportation in the UK Exchanges, high dividends blinded the public's eyes, and the lack of strict audits at the time, shareholders who held the shares of many railway companies used the newly raised money to pay interest on old financing. This Ponzi scheme allowed his ambitions to continue to expand, and he even planned to control the entire British railway system.

After the frenzy reached its apex, stocks began to decline. Even General Wellington and the Bronte sisters were not immune to this bubble, and the reason why it became like this is directly related to the cancellation of the "Bubble Act".

Georgiana wondered whether it was useful for Henry Petty to use agreements to restrain those factory owners. Napoleon was good at creating fanaticism, and fanaticism was irrational.

After developing new equipment, John Wilkinson was very confident that he could win the market. What he produced was forged steel, which was different from cast iron at the time. It was more resilient and more suitable for construction. It was as easy as he thought.

At that time, the British were less able to accept wrought iron houses, and it was easier to accept stone and brick houses. Architectural mechanics includes theoretical mechanics, material mechanics and structural mechanics. He produces materials with sufficient strength and toughness, but no designer can design suitable building structures.

He later used this forged steel to build the factory buildings, and the Paris lobby also borrowed this structure, and the ironworks were maintained.

At this time, structural engineers also began to design buildings with iron structures, but engineers were very careful in designing iron structures because they were worried that the cast iron would be fragile.

Another man, also named John Wilkinson, was much more fortunate. He improved rolling machines and lathes. It drills the muzzle of a gun, or makes the cylinder of a steam engine.

In addition to assembly precision, manufacturing precision is also required. Another Wilkinson made a lot of money and became a big steel merchant. In 1787, he used Archimedes' law to put an iron ship into the Thames River, but it did not have a steam engine.

When more railways are laid, the demand for steel bridges will also increase, but at present it is still dominated by canal and carriage companies.

The widening of the London Bridge and the venue of the French Construction Industry Expo are both major projects. In the past, it was thought that there were too few orders, but now there are too many orders.

Expansion of production capacity requires financing, and financing requires the stock market, and then the history of the South Sea bubble repeats itself, unless capital does not break free from its shackles.

In the past, the textile industry sacrificed the interests of wine, but now it is blocked by high tariff barriers. The French industry can grow slowly without the threat of competitors. Steel is still used to build factories, and imported British steel will meet market demand.

The real key point is not tariffs, but the issue of settlement. Will Napoleon give coins to the British, and then let them continue to pay the military expenses of the anti-French alliance?

Besides, after entering the metallurgical age, the textile industry will be eliminated. Although the British patent law is only 14 years old, some things are prohibited from being exported. How can the French Republic wait for 14 years?

If it works, Georgiana would like French students to study in the UK. She also said that the UK would send two engineers to the cannery but there was no news.

Although the British run like wild horses out of control, they run fast, and the food security problem in France has not yet been solved.

In the past, Georgiana was the kind of witch who studied food magic. Now she understands that the "engine" of agriculture is the land, and the fertility of the soil determines the yield per mu. She never worried about these when she was farming in the vegetable garden at Hogwarts. Use only animal manure without the use of chemical fertilizers.

She remembered a poem in Giants, in which the priest is gluttonous and lazy, and can only be used to fertilize the land.

Udine was the place where Napoleon signed the Campo Formio Peace Treaty. She remembered that at the dinner table that day, the British representative asked Lucien if he still remembered that place.

When Bishop Cambacérez left, he put the interrogation record translated from Italian on Georgiana's desk. It was handwritten and the paper was very new, not like it was hundreds of years ago.

On April 15, 1642, a woman named Barcedra approached Friar Ludovico of Guardo and accused Michele Zoppe, a farmer of Santa Maria de la Longa. A few days ago, she invited Mikay to see her eight-month-old daughter. When he arrived, he only took one look at the child and said, "I can't treat her until Easter", and then left.

This was the first accusation against Mikael.

On June 2 of the same year, a farmer told the inquisitor that Zoppe often traveled from village to village to cast spells to heal those who had been enchanted by witchcraft. As for the reason why the farmer sued Zoppe, it was because he felt that those cunning liars should be punished as they should be.

On August 22, a priest of the diocese of Kusgnaco went before the judge and said sadly that "Zopé went around spreading this or that poor woman as a witch, and discrediting the women he exposed." In order to get rid of these Trouble, this suing priest forbids him to continue his activities.

Michele heeded the warning, but he would go if anyone asked him to. In 1647, a farmer named Biate ran to the judge and cried that his son was dead. He thought the witch was the murderer, but He asks Zoppe for help.

Zoppe did not help him.

Biate promised to give Zoppe four gold coins if he waited for a good harvest, but Zoppe refused.

Biate then said to the judge, "The guarantor of the harvest and the witch belong together, that's what I heard."

Michelei was arrested on market day, in June, when the wheat in Italy seemed to be ripening.

Georgiana closed the book and closed her eyes.

She wants to sleep again.

For those 'old', experience is paramount, whereas for the young, fanaticism is what they enjoy.

Bonaparte is a person who is good at creating fanaticism, and there are really not many people who can stay awake in front of him. Even she sometimes can't tell whether she is facing a human or a devil.

In her ears, she heard the wild cheers of the crowd for a while, and the sound of porcelain falling to the ground for a while.

Did Queen Catherine's china sound like this when it shattered?
