Harry Potter Morning Light

When Suez was surveying the ancient canal, a merchant ship came. At that time, Suez seemed to have suddenly become India, and Indian goods were everywhere.

Caravans often represent supplies. For the occasional tourists passing by, the original scenery of Brittany is beautiful, but for the people who live here, it represents a lack of supplies.

She bought a lot of cushions, originally intended to be used by herself, but now they have been used by the ministers once, and she guessed that they would not be needed in the future, so she wanted to take this opportunity to dispose of them.

And the "sheets," which were supposed to be calico, which she was going to send back to the shelter. There are very few men in the army who love cleanliness like Napoleon, and they can make new clothes with these fabrics.

The centralization system in France is something that can be used by civilians at will. This is the rule left over from the period of the Great Revolution. Farmers must hand over food, fodder, wool, flax and even livestock, and handicraftsmen must sell their products. Uniforms and boots of the National Guard , Sometimes even bedding will be requisitioned for military use. The nitrate in the corner and the ashes from the kitchen were also requisitioned to make potash and other things needed for gunpowder.

After the army recruited supplies, almost all local supplies were wiped out. When people wanted to replenish supplies, people who engaged in speculation and made money in the country appeared. They are not in a hurry to sell the goods they are hoarding, and then sell them after the price rises. For this reason, the National Salvation Committee issued a maximum price order. Anyone who exceeds this price will be arrested as long as they are reported. However, even with the maximum price order, it is still profitable.

The Girondins wanted to use the laws of their own market to restore food prices to a stable level. This is what was criticized for not setting a price ceiling. They think that according to the law of the market, when people see a profit, they will transport low-priced grain to high-priced areas, so that under the mediation of supply and demand, the price will drop.

The price of grain has risen to the point of despair, and even a robbery of grain trucks has been done. At that time, human life was worthless, and it was easier to die than to live. Only then did the mother tie the child around her waist and throw herself into the river together.

Clothes and general equipment for the army are mainly provided by the garment and leather workshops set up by the local authorities, but the central government ordered the slaughterhouses to hand over animal skins to make leather shoes, and the dyeing workshops obtained bark from state-run forest farms for tanning. s material.

Some people can't survive in the troubled times, and some people are promoted quickly. They successfully tried a method of fast tanning on the small island of Billancourt, and the person who invented this method became famous. Many tanneries are also because of this law.

Borbeck is not an industrial city, it is mainly located on the main road, there are many taverns, and it is also a market nearby, other than that, there are no other industries.

If these fabrics are distributed to the garrison, they will have to ask local people to help them if they do not know how to needle and thread. It is still a question of whether others are willing to accept money for this job.

Speeches can be provocative. Napoleon's speech just now was quite peaceful, such as "the motherland is so prosperous because of your support" and so on.

The accompanying carriages this time were very luxurious, as if a luxury car that could attend a luxurious banquet at the Paris Opera House had driven to the countryside.

Anyway, even if Napoleon was wearing an ordinary uniform instead of a green marshal uniform, he would definitely not look like an ordinary soldier, just like he was wearing civilian clothes, and others could recognize him at a glance.

Although ordinary soldiers lived in the barracks under the beacon towers, the officers built a French manor in the forest. It is surrounded by forests, and there is a large lawn in front of it. Although it does not have the geometric foliage of Versailles, it can overlook the entire river valley. It is a very suitable place for the headquarters.

There is a movie called Band of Brothers. A group of American soldiers landed in Normandy and fought all the way to Austria. At that time, there was a restaurant used by officers in a small town below the "Eagle's Nest". Smoked and roasted traces, Americans who are used to seeing ruins devastated by war have never seen this kind of pie.

This place isn't that over the top, but the wine is adequate. Boerbeck has no theater and no library. Even if there is a library, these soldiers will not go there. What else can they do in their usual entertainment life besides drinking?

Georgiana and other non-military entourage were placed here together. It is estimated that the officers are surrounding him at the moment. She doesn't want to be a woman on this occasion. She just wants to be boasted like a trophy, but he said that at night What does it mean to have dinner with her? Is she going to dress up in jewels and have dinner with him in the restaurant downstairs?

"What kind of vision do you have!" She muttered angrily, sorting out a list, intending to share some of the things she bought from Rouen.

She didn't want to use her own name, if the British and the French were to go to war one day...

She can't use the name of Josephine, because what she did during Napoleon's expedition to Egypt is well known, and his "brothers" around him even introduced women to him.

Chaputal probably wouldn't do it either. Fortunately, she met Napoleon's personal secretary Menival next door.

He is also tidying up, but most of them are paperwork. It is a big office, but there is only a table in it. There is no shortage of wood in the forest. The walls are all decorated with high-quality wood. born.

He happened to be there, so she handed him the list.

"What are you doing?" said Menival, looking at Georgiana's list.

"You find a few people later, unload these things from the car, and, keep quiet, don't let others know, how will you be assigned to be the first governor."

She left after speaking.

50,000 francs is not enough to buy an army. Some people get the supplies and some don't, which will cause inequality, and such a good thing will become a bad thing instead.

She went back to her room again, and Matilda and Madame Barillon chatted happily, holding blue curtains in their hands.

Now that indigo was so expensive, so was blue cloth, and Georgiana asked Matilda to buy curtains without saying which color.

She glanced at Mrs. Barryon who was smiling all over her face. Lana's wife was also the minister's daughter, but she was not as young as Mrs. Barryon. She completely controlled these little girls, except for Phil.

I didn't see them talking, nor did I see them fighting against each other, as if there was an invisible barrier between the two, and they kept a cautious distance.

Her small suite also has an office, not as luxurious as the one next door, and a full-time secretary.

She just unfolded the map and thought about how to improve her thesis, but Ferrier gave her a letter.

"This is a letter from Toussaint Louverture." Ferrier said, "It's been a few days."

"Ask Farron if his equipment is still there." Georgiana said, "If it is, tell him that I want to requisition a few, and Severon will pay him."

"Yes, ma'am," Phillier said.

After Ferrier left, Georgiana covered the letter with the map and continued to think about her thesis.
