Harry Potter Morning Light

The French revolutionaries were poetic. They gave the twelve months a new name, the Portuguese Moon, the Brumaire Moon, the Frost Moon, the Snow Moon, the Rainy Moon, the Fengyue Moon, the Bud Moon, the Flower Moon, the Shepherd Moon, the Harvest Moon, and the Thermidor Moon. , Fruit month, but poetry can not fill the stomach, in the bud month of the third year of the Republic, the Parisian masses held a rally and shouted "I want bread".

Capitalism is mercenary, and prices will rise whenever there is a shortage, even for food, which is a necessity of life.

When the Thermidorians first came to power, prices were stable for a period of time. On December 23, 1794, the day before Christmas Eve, the Thermidor Party government announced the abolition of the "Maximum Price Law" and abolished restrictions on speculators. , these policies made the situation of the people drastically worsen.

God is dead, and the church has been expelled. In the past, when disasters struck, the church would be responsible for social relief. After the priests were expelled, social relief basically disappeared.

The mass demonstrations on the 12th of Bud month rushed into the National Convention, but they only chanted slogans such as bread and social relief at the meeting, and did not propose specific plans. In the end, they were suppressed by the army mobilized by the Thermidorians.

In troubled times, no one’s life is at stake. France is the main food producing area in Europe. If France starts to famine, it will be even more impossible for Britain to import from them. In addition, Britain and the United States were fighting their first war of independence at that time. India’s wheat was An important source of food security in the UK.

The British habit of eating wheat and bread originated from Rome, especially England, but the rainy climate in the UK is not suitable for growing wheat, nor is it suitable for growing rice. The accumulated temperature on the island is not enough, and rice needs a warm climate.

The Paris Basin has a warm climate, good thermal conditions, and fertile land for growing wheat.

However, after urbanization, the cities occupied arable land, coupled with the reduction of food production, the French famine occurred under the dual effects of weather and man-made disasters.

French wine is famous all over the world. The grape-producing areas are mainly distributed in the southwest and the Mediterranean coast. The north and east are wheat-producing areas. Louis XVI fled from Paris and ran to the northeast. His relationship with the church is clear at the Easter celebration. .

There was a shortage of food, soaring prices, and the Revolutionary Party did not make the common people feel that they were living a good life. There will always be people who miss the benefits of the king's rule.

Napoleon Bonaparte, who invaded Italy in 1794, compared the operation to Hannibal in a speech to soldiers as he crossed the Alps.

Napoleon was undoubtedly a military genius, but he still put the church aside in terms of internal affairs.

The advantage of the Renaissance is that people are qualified to receive education, unlike in the past when knowledge was monopolized by church schools.

The clergy classified all other scholars as heretics, and kings and nobles could only rely on them.

The Patriarch of Eastern Rome has always been under the royal power, rather than the Western Roman clergy who are equal or even above the royal power.

The Pope called for the Crusades, and the kings had to obey the orders. Even the British had to cross the English Channel, cross the European continent, and fight in a world completely unfamiliar to them.

Theocracy is above the secular, and the power of the church is deeply rooted in northern France, which is not suitable for wizards to live there.

After departing from Paris, the European train stops at more stops, and these small stations are all wizard villages.

At first Pomona thought about going to visit Fleur's grandmother, but now she doesn't think so, and she needs to understand why she is in such a hurry to leave.

Louis XVI successfully escaped from Paris, but he did not run to the north. He was "invited" back halfway, and never left Paris again.

She didn't want this trip to be their last, to be captured by the Aurors and thrown into Azkaban.

The pity of werewolves is that there is no relief agency to help them. They are ostracized by the entire wizarding and Muggle society. Their only hope is the werewolf rehabilitation program.

This plan has existed since a long time ago, but the successive Ministers of Magic have shown little interest in implementing it. Hezhunstoth Gore is more willing to spend the money on renovating and strengthening Azkaban.

People who are desperate and have no way to do it will be like those werewolves and those who rushed into the National Convention, who don't know what to do except create riots.

If no one with conscience points them to a clear path, they will continue to struggle like trapped animals.

Kingsley Shacklebolt is under pressure to prevent the dementors from continuing to serve as the guards of Azkaban. These dementors are wandering around. Not everyone will call on the gods to protect him. He has to face domestic and international public opinion It is almost impossible to expect him to implement the werewolf rehabilitation plan against public opinion.

Fenrir created so many werewolves. These werewolf children used to be the children of wizards. They were the creators of disputes and victims of war. This is directly related to Voldemort's connivance during the Second Wizarding War. Pure blood at least has Malfoy was helping, and those werewolves had nothing to do but rob.

It would be great if werewolves could really use transfiguration to turn into humans, as Lockhart wrote in his book.

Not long after the train left Paris, it started to rain. After leaving Gurgui, the train will enter the Birkendy region. The first stop of the train is the wizarding village named Cottedel near Beaune.

France lives in coffee and French cuisine, and wine is also very famous. Shakespeare once wrote in King Lear that "the Roman Empire conquered the world, and Beaune conquered the Roman Empire". According to legend, when the Roman army brought grape seeds to Beaune in Gaul, they found that the abundant sunshine and rich and fertile gravel land were especially suitable for grape cultivation, so they planted grapes and made wine like local farmers.

Unexpectedly, three years later, when the army was about to set off, nearly half of the soldiers stayed. They would rather stay as a wine farmer than go south and north to fight and expand the territory of the empire. For this reason, Charlemagne later had to issue a decree prohibiting the army from passing through Beaune. Even before his death, he said something like this: "The Roman Empire prospered on wine, and was ruined by wine."

The French government forces pitted the British on the frontal battlefield and soon surrendered, but the French people never gave up resistance after being occupied by the Germans.

That's the way the French are, if there's a man who wants to enslave free France, he's got to watch them all the time, sleep with one eye open, and be willing to get himself into endless trouble .

During World War II, both ordinary soldiers and Hitler, the supreme leader of Germany, wanted to take the best wine in France for themselves. Even if they didn't like wine, they preferred to drink Munich beer.

In order to protect the wine from falling into the wrong hands, people in the French wine-producing areas, some people kept the wine in the interlayer of false walls, some buried the wine in the ground of the garden, and some tried to destroy the wine transportation channels, Others use various methods to protect their most precious grapes, such as changing the labels of famous village wines to ordinary wine bottles.

But this is only the beginning of the story. In the days that followed, the people in those wineries fought hard. They hid Jews and Allied soldiers in vineyards and wine cellars, transported soldiers in oak barrels, and so on. To defend their country and their wine with all their might.

In the Burgundy-occupied territory, the German army issued such a rule: Except for the wine produced in the first-class vineyards that needs to be purchased, the German army can freely occupy and drink other wines. The promulgation of such regulations is well known to the Germans. There is no lack of followers of high-end French wines among German government officers, so this is also to continue to drink top-notch wines from France in the future.

As a result, wine growers in the Burgundy-occupied area began to apply for first-class gardens in a swarm, and a large number of first-class gardens were produced during the war.

Although a large number of French wineries have been hit hard, the wineries in Burgundy’s fine fields are barely preserved under the protection of German policies, so there are continuous grape fields everywhere around Beaune.

In the Bible, Jesus once said: I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he cuts off, and every branch that bears fruit he prunes, so that the branches bear fruit More.

At the Last Supper, he blessed the disciples with the wine they drank and the bread they ate, and gave them to them. Said that this wine is my blood, this bread is my body, my body and blood are given up and poured out for the forgiveness of all. Since then, communion has become one of the most important basic ceremonies of Christianity, and wine has also become a sacred spiritual symbol of Christianity.

Minerva is a witch, but she is also the daughter of a priest. She never tells people about her beliefs, and she only strictly requires students to pay attention to their words and deeds.

Wine is used by 2.2 billion people for dozens of masses every year. What a huge consumption!

With the increasing number of believers in the church, large-scale free drinking of wine must have a fixed wine production base, and large-scale wine production requires large-scale vineyards, which requires a large amount of land, all of which require the church to have a strong economy Strength, because of the wine, the church once reached the level of wealth that can rival the country.

There is a main palace hospital in Beaune, which was built in the 15th century by the Grand Duke of Burdia, Nicolas Rolland and his wife. The main palace hospital also owns grape fields, and treats patients free of charge with the income from the grape fields . Starting from the third Saturday in November every year, Beaune will hold an auction ceremony to auction the wines produced. These three days are called the three days of glory. They not only take in poor patients, but also take in wounded soldiers during World War II. .

It is said that the hospital owned 1,300 hectares of grape fields at first, but now only 58 hectares remain. Even so, it is still widely popular because of its ability to produce special wines, and the sales proceeds are used for building restoration projects and other places.

This kind of generous spender buys the best wine and enjoys a good mood, and those who need money to do good things get funds, and everyone gains joy in the process.

"I know what's wrong with us?" Pomona said, and Severus, who was sitting on the sofa across from her, looking down at her, looked up at her.

"You were the only one who felt happy that day, and I didn't enjoy it at all."

He endured it for a long time, and finally said with a blue face.

"Are you still thinking about it?"

"It's called love if two people are satisfied. I was scared to death by you that time." She tightened the shawl. "I'm still satisfied in the back."

"You said you wanted something, and that's all you wanted?" He said in a cold voice.

"Of course it's not just this. Who do you think I am? An idiot?"

Severus shook his head. "Sometimes I really want to split your head open and see what's inside."

"You can take Legilimency on me."

"You're not that troll Harry Potter, you have no defense at all." He turned his eyes to the book, "What happened that day will never happen again."

"Let's go to that bunker again sometime. I remember that there are a lot of top wines in the cellar there." She crossed her legs and deliberately tipped his calf with the silk flat shoes.

He ignored her.

"That bunker is what you used to hide. In fact, I don't like South America that much. Even if I want to escape, I don't want to escape there."

"You don't need to prepare to flee now." He stared at the book and said "I remember you don't like wine."

"I'm craving a butterbeer. It's perfect for a warm drink on a rainy day like this." She kicked him again. "Go get me one."

Severus put the book down.

He stood up silently and left the box, and he came back with two glasses of butterbeer not long after, so obedient that she thought he was suffering from paranoia.

Then he started reading again.

This time he was not reading a book about the origin of human inequality, but a book written in runes. Looking at the cover, he knew that it was definitely something from the Middle Ages, full of evil power.

European trains are not inspected, and only such things can be brought on the train.

Pomona picked up a glass of butterbeer and drank it while looking out the window.

Hopefully, in the next generation, maybe the girl with the vine wand becomes a minister, and the fate of werewolves will be better. After all, she likes Remus very much, and has a half-lycanthral relative.
