Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1586 Life and death sniper (seventeen)

France, the most powerful land kingdom in Europe, even after the French Revolution, many royal jewels have disappeared, and the collection is still very rich. Later, after Napoleon's robbery, he filled the already dazzling jewelry library. .

Even an Indian woman knows that once she has good luck, she becomes a mountain man, the wife of a "free hunter". For the sake of her husband's wallet and transaction credit, she must dress herself brightly and freely. How could the wives of the killers dress like those ordinary and boring wives? Give up those poor thoughts. Free hunters actually care about their own identity and status just like businessmen, and this recognition of identity and status is reflected in the appearance of their wives.

  To go to the north this time, Georgiana must dress up as "beautiful" and cover all the wives of the merchants, so the jewelry of the French treasury and the jewelry of Bonaparte's private library are all opened to her. It contains not only the jewels of the French king, but also the jewels of Italy. It is said that this is a "donation" received by Bonaparte from the Catholic clergy. A jeweler created brand new jewellery for her a month ago.

  Theoretically, the value of jewels is determined by the size of the gems, but Giorgioanna does not want to wear all the gems on her body like Gracini, using herself as a jewelry display stand.

She looked for Denon, the curator of the Louvre, looked for women’s jewelry on those Renaissance oil paintings, and asked the Mai Lanrui family to copy a batch of them as they were, but what she finally got was an improved one. It is more in line with the aesthetics of the 19th century. Among them is a bracelet with black enamel inlaid with gold and pearls, and a square yellow diamond. She liked it very much, and Mai Lanrui made a set for her, and there was even a Ferron. Nye thin chain.

  This forehead ornament is named after a painting by Leonardo da Vinci. The woman in the painting is called Madame Fronnier. There is also a hair chain made of emeralds and gold, and a garnet serpentine necklace matched with opal in her hand. Later, she bought a screw-engraved brooch at the suggestion of a craftsman. The head carved on the brooch is Georgiana herself, she felt that this thing could become her own token in the future, worn by the maids who went out to do things for her.

  When there are more jewels, a custodian of jewels is needed. Leoncourt’s granddaughter, Alice, will also accompany Georgiana this time. She is responsible for keeping the jewels for Georgiana.

  She seems to have known her destiny, and she wants to choose a young Bonapartist officer to be her husband at the ball, so she is not happy about this outing.

  Alice at least has the power to choose her own choice. The others are Napoleon and Josephine who looked good and directly paired, and the parties were only notified in the end.

  Georgiana didn’t know what the final outcome of the marriage she introduced would be like. Few noble girls were married freely. Like Rose, they got rid of the shackles. Very few people were with the poor painter Jack. Mendanhu changed the name to class barriers. In theory, Karl and Ross, who belonged to the upper class, had no common language at all.

  A "civilian" background like Napoleon, who has been in military academy for a few years, but such a knowledgeable officer is very rare, although according to his own statement, he is poor, and reading is his only pastime.

   is also a craftsman. Jewelers and British spinning machine engineers are completely different. Rouen they are going to this time is located in Normandy, one of the centers of the French cotton industry. British craftsmen play a key role here.

In addition, Ghent in Belgium has become a textile center. British textile machinery is not allowed to be exported at will. This is one of the means of British diplomacy. Where there are British textile machinery, traditional handicrafts are usually crushed to obtain technology. It is no less important than obtaining capital. It is not so easy for Belgium to abandon the textile industry and change to the sugar industry. Generally speaking, the development of textile industry will also develop manufacturing. In addition to mercenaries, Switzerland is also famous for watches. Even if British experts kept secrets, Swiss entrepreneurs copied a simplified version of the British machine and it was already in operation, but it was not so easy to fully mechanize it.

Whether it is wool, linen or cotton, the textile industry in Germany is a traditional family workshop. Women and children spin at home. When a large amount of cheap British yarn entered Germany, these spinners became weavers. , Continue to work at home. With the spinning machine, the Swiss no longer need to import British yarn, but in this way, the women will leave home to go to work in the factory.

Women’s salaries are half or even 40% of men’s, and child labor’s salaries are lower, sometimes one-third or even one-quarter. There are two reasons why women and children are more obedient than men. Second, they have no strength to resist. Supervisors are often Kong Wu's powerful men, and a child can lift up with one hand.

The competition of British goods strongly stimulates the development of manufacturing in another direction. Steel and manufacturing, even if it is not a mining area, can also ship ore from coastal ports. Blueprints, molds, and machines are the targets of industrial spies and persuasion. British technicians should be hired abroad. The high salary is only one aspect. The street lamp expert who had worked as a steam engine assembly engineer in Watt’s factory wanted to lay the new street lamp he invented in the city. The French immediately agreed. Later the engineer was picked up by the British. A German was sent instead. This German inventor was good at sales and publicity, but didn't know how to assemble a steam engine. What's the use of a gas lamp on the streets of Paris?

  The core of industrial capitalism is the continuous innovation of technology, which is a sign of the development and growth of industrial capitalism.

Bonaparte actually didn't like metric units very much. He had to learn how to convert from imperial units to metric units when he lived in his thirties, but there was no way, otherwise the British and French made the same shell size.

Metric units were first implemented in France. With the expansion of culture and technological dissemination in France, more and more metric units were used in other European countries. Later, metric units became universal units, and only the United States and the Commonwealth countries continued to use metric units. Use imperial units.

Napoleon knew mathematics and geometry. He also drew the trajectory of the new British grenade to her. This "secret weapon" is powerful, but it also has many restrictions. First, it must have a correct shooting angle, and the other is the projectile. There must be enough gunpowder left in the space, and the charge must be just enough to destroy the outer shell. At the same time, the force generated can push the projectile to fly in the original direction, delay the spread of the shotgun, and focus more on the target.

This requires precise calculations and a large number of experiments. It requires money for short. Although there was not much foreign warfare in 1802, the cost of maintaining stability in the country was more than huge. The special courts and the army of the bandits all cost money, plus She really shouldn't spend any more money on spending on various public projects in the country, buying so many expensive jewelry and clothes.

But these things are her "battle armor". Bonaparte can wear military uniforms, but she can't, but she will not wear too cumbersome and gorgeous clothes. She mainly focuses on tailoring, materials and styles, that is She was near the bar counter in the hotel, listening to the "sense of luxury" from the models.

  If an army commander can't get the awe and love he deserves, he can't get good achievements.

  Georgianna guesses no one will believe it. She doesn’t like these things. She prefers to wear a witch’s robe full of mud and patches, wear a witch hat, grow vegetables in the vegetable garden or take care of magical plants in the greenhouse.

   But a woman who had an affair with another man in marriage has a reputation for infidelity. Napoleon’s "brothers" used this as an excuse to introduce him to many women, and Josephine could not do anything about it. Georgiana definitely won't be the same as Josephine, she's not Irene, she won't be able to swallow, and Severus can also find a young and pure princess to marry and start a new family like Napoleon Bonaparte.

  The biggest mistake in her life is that she is still alive. Unlike Lily, who can die in the image of a pure and great mother, she is immortal in people's hearts.

  Lily is much luckier than her, and Petunia is born to the same parents. Why is it so unfair that Lily is a witch, but Petunia is a Muggle?

   At this moment, she suddenly heard the cross bell from downstairs, and it seemed that Belle had begun to dance the sacrificial dance again.

  The last time Georgiana watched her skip, it was handed down from ancient Egypt. The dance used by priestesses to exorcise is different from the belly dance that prays for childbirth. It is used to pray for safety. They set off tonight, and Giorgioanna will go first and meet at Saint-Germain-en-Laye.

  She touched her heart, as if it didn't beat anymore.

   It’s time to be satisfied, this unfaithful woman finally died, and the world was purified, just like the song "whatawonderfulworld" sings.

   With a "pop", Georgiana closed the safe for the jewelry.

   "Go, let's go dancing." Georgiana said to Alice.

   "I don't know how to dance that kind of dance." Alice said quickly.

   "I can't learn." She was so strong that she pulled Alice. "And you, Matilda, you have to go too."

   "I don't want to go~" Matilda pouted.

  Georgiana ignored her, took Matilda with her other hand, and went downstairs together.
