Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 1978 Behind closed doors (12)
Because of the signing of the Treaty of Amiens, many British people came to France to travel, and Turner was one of them.
A painter will use sketches to record the scenery he sees, which is somewhat similar to photos, but different from them. Because usually the beacon tower would not be lit, and he wanted to see the beacon lit, so he drew that scene in his painting. Only in this way, the painting does not match the reality.
Everyone who pays a painter to paint a portrait wants to look better. The painter is not a machine like a camera. He knows how to be flexible. This is not the same as the subjective perception produced by the halo effect.
It is not easy to see a person clearly. Sometimes you think you see clearly, but in fact he is not consistent with what you understand.
Napoleon was not a perfect man, he was not omniscient, and even someone as smart as Isaac Newton made mistakes.
He is good at military affairs, geometry, economics, politics, and law, but knows nothing about the textile industry, but Shaputal is an expert in this field. How can his wife work in the textile industry. In the morning, he also showed his hand in a local factory. The owner of the factory at that time always complained about the uneven dyeing of the yarn. Shaputal easily discovered that it was caused by uneven twisting of the yarn, so the Minister of the Interior twisted it himself. One, the workers present were stunned.
Bonaparte was very happy. Although he was often the protagonist on the stage, he didn't mind stepping off the stage to be an audience and applauding the actors on the stage. At that time, no one noticed the problem that Perrier had discovered.
Napoleon didn't like businessmen, and he brought bankers with him to encourage them to invest, but Perrier, who seemed very rational, said very "metaphysically" that he didn't feel passion in those employers who ran factories.
Bankers just want to save trouble, so they can find someone who works in business to give them money to make money. The business of Périère Bank is almost entirely dependent on the Anzain coal mine. This is an unwritten rule of many French banks. High-end banks tend to only serve a few customers and rely on the profits of the few large companies to live.
Small moneylenders made loans against land mortgages, a business long considered the safest. The industry's biggest problem is getting long-term loans, but there has long been a strong bias against this area.
Even if the bankers are not specialized in the textile industry, they know a little about the situation in this industry. Perrier thinks that agricultural loans are feasible only because of land mortgages. As for why a banker in a coal mine does this, the first French Isn't the Minister of Finance of the Government of the Republic also surnamed Perrier?
Henry Petty's father was also competing for the position of Minister of Finance of the United Kingdom. The younger generation is now released to experience, so Napoleon said he was old when he was only in his thirties.
No one can compete with the high-count yarns in the UK. The French bought these high-count yarns, spun them into yarns, dyed them, and then woven them with jacquard machines. This is different from the printing used in the UK.
This was a French patent, and it also required a certain skill to operate it, which was not required in turn to operate the English printing machines. The calico printing and spinning mills were full of apprentices, sometimes outnumbering the workers.
It is a strange phenomenon brought about by mechanization. A skilled weaver who has been working for decades can't compete with a 15-year-old child.
And this also caused their replaceability to increase. If you don’t do it, some people do it. The so-called apprentices do things that are not symmetrical with the name of apprentices. In fact, they are underage child laborers, and their age is used as As an excuse, in order to pay them as little wages as possible, and subject them to a rough discipline, they earn only three to seven shillings a week, while the workers' wages are twenty-five shillings. Therefore the calico dyers agitated to reform their apprenticeships in the industry and to limit the number of apprentices, and they raised £1,000, which was used to secure an ordinance for the protection of these poor wretches, and this £1,000 was worth a penny in all of Great Britain. Collected in one article.
This law was the Factory Act, but whether the legislation would be enforceable is another question. They were weavers, but they couldn't afford the cloth they wove, even though the apprentices' request was that the owner of the workshop would give them two new clothes every year, and the other thing was to ensure that the factory was ventilated.
The house elves are afraid that the master will give them clothes, and these apprentices are afraid of becoming adults, which means that the factory owners can no longer use age as an excuse to deduct wages, and they will face the risk of losing their jobs, so they maliciously destroy the machines, so that the factory owners have to often Send someone to fix it.
General Ludd didn't exist, he was made up by children. Sometimes they would gather at night on the outskirts of industrial towns, and what they said and what they were plotting was unknown to the grown-ups, because the children didn't trust the grown-ups.
The restoration of the 1786 treaty was proposed by the United Kingdom. Bolton’s factory made toys before making steam engines, and also made steel shoe buckles. He exported the steel shoe buckles to France. After France made boots, he sold the shoe buckles to He was hired, and the price was increased.
In 1786, French jacquard cotton was also sold to England, and soon the factory owners of printed cotton discovered the threat posed by jacquard cotton.
The monopoly will have pricing power, and the former workers can wear decent clothes. These printed cotton cloths caused them to have to reduce the price. The key is that the cotton yarn used to make these jacquard cotton cloths is still produced in Britain itself.
During the war between Britain and France, the Directorate government once ordered a ban on the import of British goods. Napoleon did not revoke this ban. The French Chamber of Commerce, who wanted to buy British cotton yarn, categorically opposed the ban on imports. Equal tariffs were charged, which violated the requirements of the Methuen Treaty.
Chaputal told Georgiana that this was an excuse to give France priority in buying colonial goods.
But Bonaparte raised taxes in the British colonies, at least 50% higher than in the French colonies.
Sugar was an important product of the British colony, and the French exchanged it with silk, and Santo Domingo could have provided sugar.
So Napoleon proposed tariff-free imports of steel, and at the same time provided financing to British steel mills. If the British authorities do not agree to the terms, which favor the industry, then it will be up to the British steel industry to object, as does the French chamber of commerce.
After the Factory Act was proposed, the factory owners represented by Sir Robert Peel in the House of Commons thought it was ignorant and conservative, and opposed the second reading of the bill.
Sir Robert Peel, on the other hand, was a friend of young William Pitt, who had been Chancellor of the Exchequer, and he and Petty were "really friends".
What manufactures can France have? Just like importing British iron buckles, making them into boots and selling them back to the UK, dumping of materials does not necessarily have an impact on the country's business, unless there is also a related industry in the country.
There are two pieces of jacquard and printed cloth, which one should I choose to make clothes?
For dinner they had Tuscan salmon, which is an Italian dish, as the name suggests.
Although Georgiana had almost spoiled his affairs, Bonaparte forgave her, mainly because she had good intentions and the Church was pleased.
Apples have always been considered Adam's forbidden fruit, but Normandy is really not suitable for growing grapes. It's humid and cloudy here. That day she and the women of the Rouen Chamber of Commerce drank cidre, a low-alcohol cider, a French child It can also be drunk.
White meat should be accompanied by brandy, not necessarily grape brandy, but apple brandy is also possible, but although Brittany is famous for its cider, apple brandy is not satisfactory, at least Bonaparte was not satisfied with it.
Then he talked about the selection of varieties. There are many varieties of grapes. The French have gone through years of selection and breeding to obtain the current production areas and varieties, and cider has to go through this process.
The process of barrel maturation is like a symphony orchestra that needs countless kinds of fragrant notes to interweave and cooperate. The smell of wood will blend with the fruit fragrance in cider. This natural alchemy plays its magic. curse, brewing a golden liquid.
He was thinking about him, Georgiana was thinking about something else, and she could have a contest to see whose cellar made the "King" of apple brandy.
Every time this kind of selection can hold a food festival, it is not only convenient for businesses, but also can bring tourists, just like what she experienced in Burgundy.
She ate a mouthful of salmon soaked in yogurt, drank a mouthful of over-fermented apple brandy with an overcooked taste, and frowned and drank it all in order not to waste food.
The golden cider reminded her of Felix Felicia, and she wondered who would be the lucky one to get the "reward".
