Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1358 "Empty Gun"

  If you ask anyone casually, how much freight is needed for a shipment from Malay to London, almost all ordinary people who are not in the shipping industry can’t answer.

  Similarly, the unit price of 1 million quintals of 23.3 million francs and 26 francs per quintal of grain seems to be cheaper.

However, the 23 francs per quintal of grain does not include the freight. The grain shipped from Spain to France includes the freight. The actual unit price of the grain purchased is 18 francs per quintal, and the remaining 8 francs is Loss and freight on the way.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu, not only used up the wealth accumulated by Wenjingzhizhi, but also destroyed the domestic economy. His supplies were almost entirely dependent on the country, and the nomads had no permanent homes. The soldiers he sent were in the desert. It's hard to meet the enemy here.

  Of course, this kind of tactics will incur high military expenses, and Georgiana vaguely guessed what Napoleon’s plan was.

  This feeling is very peculiar, just like Fred and George, you say the last sentence and I say the next sentence, as if it was a person who said it.

  If you mention Napoleon and Egypt, in addition to the pyramids and failed expeditions, it is the Suez Canal, which is a short way connecting the Mediterranean and the Red Sea. With it, there is no need to bypass the Cape of Good Hope and West Africa.

  How could the United Kingdom abandon the coastal ports of West Africa after operating for so many years, but if it is the high military and freight expenses, then the United Kingdom has to think about whether it wants to colonize India and South Asia.

On October 10, 1801, the ambassadors who signed the peace treaty at the Tuileries were from Britain, Portugal, Russia, Turkey, and the Papal States. Georgiana still remembers the crazy plan of Paul I that the wife of the Russian ambassador told her. He wanted to order the Cossack cavalry to invade India, share Turkey's territory with Austria, and redraw the map of Europe.

  The Czar’s plan was too crazy and difficult to implement. In contrast, Russia and Turkey combined to invade India from the west and it was much simpler.

  "Sudan" got along well with ***. On the day of the signing celebration party, he put on the green uniform like an explorer, as if the young officer who had come back from Egypt to save the country had returned.

  He didn't dance with anyone during the whole dance, but he didn't stop other people from dancing, including waltz.

  William Pitt Jr. also came, but he still clings to his beard and pretending to be Thomas Granit.

William Pitt Jr. has many friends in the British business circle. Even though he was impoverished and owed huge debts, the London business figures were still willing to give him £100,000, but he declined. He turned to accept the offer from his friends. With a loan of 12,000 pounds, he sold Hallwood’s mansion and came to Paris to talk about free trade with friends in the business world.

  William Pitt Jr. is a businessman privately. It is very common for diplomats to use his position to obtain information for profiteering. The reason why he owes huge debts is because he likes extravagant banquets very much.

  He has no interest in women. It is not that he is gay. He once had a love history with Eleanor Eden, the daughter of Lord Oakland, but he was too poor to propose to her.

He was busy with state affairs and neglected his personal affairs. The servants in Hallwood Manor stole his things and made him debt-rich. Later, the king sealed him off with an annual salary of 3,000 pounds and gave him Walmer Castle. Being a mansion made his life easier.

  He is a smart debater, but he is a member of the merchant class. He looks very polite and polite in social situations. Coupled with his handsome appearance, there are still many British people studying in France who have a good impression of him.

Cooking food was originally Georgiana’s specialty, but Bonaparte let Madame Remicar take charge. The fashionable food she prepared was very fresh to the British, but they were not as resistant as Georgiana thought. They were also willing to try fresh. Things.

Her "task" was to decorate the dance party. The silver satin fabric from Lyon completely covered the entire throne room, and then there were many sculptures from Egypt. A huge pyramid was placed on the buffet table, whether it was Both the English and the French have been there, but they have never heard of the story of Princess Yahmos of Thebes.

  It’s history thousands of years ago, but now the hieroglyphs have not been deciphered. Whether it is British or French, the story made up by the Honourable Bonaparte is doubtful.

At this time, the Egyptian scholars rushed to rescue Napoleon. Although the book describing the history and humanities of Egypt has not yet been written, they have all this knowledge in their minds. The ladies who originally thought the dance would be boring listened to their explanations. , I became fascinated by that distant "Oriental country". No one remembers that Britain and France once fought in Egypt.

  Josephine was very unhappy throughout the ball. It was originally her job to set up the ball venue at the Tuileries Palace, but now it was robbed by Georgiana and Juliet.

The reason why silk is so expensive in Europe is because the camel team has to bring those fabrics back to Central Asia and Europe from far away Chang'an and Yangzhou. Many middlemen have to take advantage of it, not to mention the costs incurred on the way. The silk that arrived in Rome had to be calculated by weight instead of length, and the price was a hundred times higher than the origin. Justinian tried his best to get rid of this trade deficit. Later, two Indian monks stole silkworm eggs. Let Europe also have its own ability to weave silk.

  Lyon was favored. This is so obvious that the factory owners in Lyon strongly demanded to exclude Italian competitors and demand that only raw silk produced in Piedmont be supplied to them.

  Mr. Martin also had friends in Italy, but he did not bring them here. Instead, he talked to Giorgio about the withdrawal of French troops from the Papal States. Their new station was in Piedmont.

  Before the repair of the Senj Mountain Road, Nice was responsible for the import and export of raw materials. After the French colony in Africa was recovered, French cafes would become very lively.

  The current Governor of Piedmont, Jour, is a brave man in wartime, a person who is usually indecisive, and lacks a bold and innovative spirit.

  So Mr. Martin asked her tentatively, if possible, could she change to a governor?

  As for Napolioni’s method of packing up those royalists, it is also very simple. The theory of monarchy quoted "Levy History": the common people are strong when they are united, and weak when they are scattered.

  When the homeland of the Romans was destroyed by the French invasion, many Romans violated the laws and orders of the Senate and moved to Victoria.

  In order to save them from violating the order, the Senate issued an announcement, ordering everyone to return to Rome to live in Rome within a certain period of time and subject to certain punishments.

  At first, the announcement caused ridicule, but when the deadline was approaching, everyone obeyed.

  Napolionei sent a deal to every nobleman in exile. If they don’t return home sometime next year, their property will be confiscated, and the country they are in exile will no longer support them.

  British habeas corpus, this law was suspended in 1794 because William Pitt Jr. wanted to crack down on the accomplices of activists and the French Revolutionary Party.

  For example, if a woman is domestically abused, she can be protected through a habeas corpus. Those exiled aristocrats who would rather lose all their property than return to France can apply for a habeas corpus in a British court.

  A figure like the Duke of Orleans will certainly not worry about income, but he will not have extra money to support his customers. How can the Shuanites love him, and can he abandon the family business for this kindness?

Compared with the 2 billion property of the exiles, the little property left by the church after the Great Revolution was confiscated was not enough for Polyonese's teeth. Therefore, his attitude towards Capra Lala’s envoy was extremely close, even if he was a man. Atheist.

The exiles who have returned to the country will live under the surveillance of the secret police and informers. The beast will counterattack before his death. Georgiana remembers that the "Peace of Amiens" was signed in 1802, this draft of 1801. The agreement did not finally come into effect.

  So can’t be happily too early.

Georgian’s wooden track is not a new invention. It has been commonly used in British mines and iron smelters in the 18th century. However, because of the poor load-bearing capacity of the wooden board, it is easy to be damaged. It became a flat track, the wheels were flanged, and even someone was already designing a steam train.

  This shows how primitive the European continent is to rely on carriages and wooden wheels for transportation.

  Some of Pete’s friends are in the steel business, and the investment in repairing the railway is large, but the effect of the repair of the railway is also remarkable. Napolioni began to wonder whether the exiles should come back or come back.

  Georgina placed an order first, planning to make canned food with tin sheets. The canned horse meat she made before is now being eaten.

  She wants to start preparing before others realize the disaster next year.

  After the citizens of Paris seized the Bastille, the municipal administration posted a notice at the entrance of the Bastille. People who wanted to leave Paris had to obtain a special pass before the National Guard would release it. At that time, it was said that 200,000 copies were issued.

  She will not run away, but she will not stay in Paris, which is full of starving people.

  The municipality was the first to be attacked, then the shops and the homes of the wealthy.

  The king could not protect himself, not to mention the nobles. Fortunately, after some died and escaped, there were fewer members of the noble family. Even so, the number of soldiers who protected them and stood guard for them decreased.

  It also feels particularly unsafe to go to the Grand Trianon. It is too close to Versailles and it feels very unlucky.

  Since some people believe in Moreau so much, ask him for help.

  Moreau will wait for the commotion to calm down and come in to clean up the mess, and will not fire at the mob like Napoleon, so as to prevent the situation from getting worse.

  He was in this style. Napoleon had experienced it in Italy before. He did everything the enemy wanted him to do. Moreau did not come to the party this time, but Mrs. Recamier’s husband came instead.

  Bankers in Paris can stay at the National Bank, and so can bankers in Lyon.

  Women don’t interfere with men’s political affairs, and when she sees them, she does not see them.

  As for the fantasy-like plan in her mind, she will not talk to the British fellow.

  Who believes it?

  So she giggled all over the party, looking like a "sweetheart".
