Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1703 The secret words of the goddess (48)

  2004 was an eventful year. Not only did the Indonesian tsunami happen, but also other things happened.

  The first is the kidnapping incident in September. A group of unidentified armed men broke into the elementary school, kidnapped 1,200 teachers and students, and demanded that Russia withdraw its troops from Chechnya.

Another thing is the presidential election that took place in Ukraine in October, making friends with people like Lucius Malfoy, and when he enters the social circle, he will come into contact with many things that Arthur Weasley’s family can’t reach. . Ukraine and Russia have been merged for two to three hundred years. Ukraine is also a founding member of the Soviet Union. Almost everyone believes that Ukraine is the strongest component of the Soviet Union.

  It is precisely because of this that the Soviet Union developed the most advanced technology and heavy industry in Ukraine. However, all this changed after Ukraine listened to the rhetoric of the United States. The Americans admitted that as long as they voted for independence, they would immediately give huge financial aid to make life in Ukraine better.

  This is indeed no small temptation. After all, the brilliance of the Western capitalist world is obvious to all.

  There are many models from Ukraine on the T stage. Ukraine and Russia are well-known for their abundance of beautiful women. They left their hometowns and came to countries such as Milan, Paris, and London, waiting to be discovered by agents like luck.

  Sometimes these models will take on other jobs, such as attending certain receptions with the rich.

  In the eyes of most men, having beautiful women is one of the signs of a man’s success. They don't understand English, politics, economy, culture, etc., but they have charming smiles, which is enough for them.

  The world can be roughly divided into two kinds of men, one is to give a woman everything she wants, and the other is to give her everything he has. The man who gave her everything for herself sometimes couldn't give her what she wanted, so she followed the men who could give her everything she wanted.

At this point a woman should understand that a man who can give her everything she wants will not necessarily marry her. Voldemort’s mother Merope doesn’t know this. Yes, the old Tom Riddle can give her everything she wants. , Leaving the dilapidated house, living in the big house, there is a handsome husband or something, in fact, once the effect of the ecstasy passed, the old Tom Riddle abandoned her.

  She herself looked so ugly, and she was abandoned like a girl who looked much better than her.

  Generally speaking, they will get some gifts before "breaking up". These gifts will be very expensive and cannot be given by a man who gives her everything.

Old Tom Riddle was more stingy, and their family’s reputation in their hometown was the same. They didn’t give Merope anything. As a result, Merope had to rely on pawning Slytherin’s locket to survive, and she happened to meet a profiteer. 10 Jin Jialong sold the locket at a low price.

  Later, everyone knows how much trouble her son caused, so these upper-class men will not marry these "Kiev women" who hold the dream of "Cinderella".

  After seeing the top luxury life, a woman seldom "willingly fall" and marry a blue-collar or white-collar worker, because they have exhausted everything and can't meet her material needs.

  To do this business is to eat youth. They also know that they either work hard while they are young, save enough money, accumulate enough contacts, start a business of their own, or find another way out.

  Their success will be promoted by the media to return to Ukraine, attracting more girls who do not argue right and wrong and dream to leave their hometowns. The situation in Ukraine is getting worse. Not only the beauties, but also the talents left behind by the former Soviet Union, but this country does not have resources like Chechnya like oil and gas and needs to be imported from abroad.

  Later, a smart Ukrainian beauty monopolized the supply of natural gas in Ukraine, and realized the myth that she turned from a poor girl to the hottest rich woman in Ukraine. Her legend cannot be copied either, because there will not always be a "prince" calling the wrong phone.

  What is the "American Dream"?

  Some people think that it is a kind of social order, in which men and women can achieve the greatest achievement based on their own qualities, regardless of her or his origin and social background.

This concept is too abstract. For most people, the American dream is still a car, a big house, a beautiful slender wife (husband with thick hair), one or two children, plus a dog in the yard, preferably a golden retriever, Labrador or border collie, occasionally engage in bbq with friends in their garden, while drinking cold beer, chatting with parents or parents, talking about children's learning problems or something.

  The house is not built for the people, the house is built for the bank, and the bank will not lend money to others for nothing. For example, Jacob hopes to open a bakery. He thinks his craftsmanship can convince the bank who is responsible for lending. For this reason, he also brought a few breads he made himself, which is unreliable from the bank's perspective.

  At least give a detailed business plan, and even if you have a detailed business plan, you may not be able to get a loan. Starting a business is risky, which is very risky for banks.

  Having collateral is different. For example, the eggs of the bird and snake that Jacob later obtained looks like silver, so that he can easily obtain a loan.

If Jacob sells the silver for cash, he may encounter profiteers like Bogimbok, who may take away Jacob’s birds and snake eggs at a low price. In the end, the money he gets is far from enough. Open a bakery.

Suppose there is a group of bankers who gather together to drink bourbon and chat: "We need to borrow more money. This is our way of making money. We attract people to deposit in the bank, and then take this money out to get interest. But we need a commodity to let out the loan."

  When slavery was not abolished in the 19th century, slaves were also collateral. Like houses, they could obtain loans from banks. Now that slavery is abolished, of course they cannot lend money like this.

   Then in the 1950s, someone suddenly thought of an idea: everyone needs a home, and a home needs a house. They will fight for home, right?

  We should give this idea a name-the American Dream.

  Since then, people have been divided into two categories: those who have a home and those who are homeless.

Homeless people are undoubtedly poor. Those "good-hearted people" in the bbq in their own backyard have found opportunities to donate money, donate things, and become volunteers. After all, these people will pick up stray cats and dogs. Raised at home.

  No one wants to be equal to a stray cat or dog. Some people will reluctantly rent a house to live in, but the high rent also keeps them on the verge of homelessness.

  Previously, during the Civil War, southern slave owners participated in the war to protect slavery and to protect the slaves who represented wealth.

  While northerners need workers and some people consume their industrial products, slaves have no freely disposable wealth.

In the long run, the United States will split into two opposites, one is a car company, and the other is a real estate company. The car company needs someone to buy their car, and people have all the money they have to buy a house. Under such a high debt situation It is very risky to loan them to buy a car, and the car company has an interest relationship with the oil company. Who will buy their oil when the car company goes bankrupt?

  As far as the current situation is concerned, Detroit has been abandoned, and the real estate in Detroit has also collapsed. The opposition has not formed, but it is all over.

  This is just small chat in the club. The essence is similar to chatting in the bbq in the backyard. There is nothing to look for, but the content is different. Many business opportunities are spread through this kind of gossip.

  According to the scene in the crystal ball, police suppression is no longer effective, only the army, but also driving armored vehicles, treating Paris as a theater of martial law.

  Even if the French army elected to surrender during World War II, it seemed that the whole world was laughing at them, but at that time the French "nobles" could only rely on them.

If you want to find mercenaries, you must know where to hire them. These people are "cannon fodder" on the battlefield. They take money to do things. If American soldiers die, the president will give their families an account. The mercenaries who died are not recorded on the list of deaths .

  Unless the French Republic exits the Eurozone and switches back to French francs or US dollars, or joins NATO, similar riots may break out in two days.

  Wealthy people will not stay in Paris and wait stupidly. They will receive “inside information” from sources to prepare in advance. They themselves only stay in this city during the most beautiful seasons in Paris. It is so hot in July and August, and because of the "environmental protection" they can't turn on the air conditioner. They leave no sign of going abroad. As for Lucius, the wizard's "prophecy", he will know it in autumn. If it is correct, then even if they owe him a favor, they will remember him for any business in the future.

  That’s why the great Malfoy family patriarch was so "obedient" and came to Paris from England.

   "Have you thought about it?" Lucius urged impatiently.

   "I'm still thinking about it!" Severus said angrily.

   "This is the biggest shortcoming of you, who is always hesitant." Lucius said.

   "I call this cautious. I think I finally understand how Draco's recklessness came from in third grade. Is that what you taught, right?" Severus said bitterly.

   "How can this be blamed on him, it's all the animal's fault, and the half-giant, how can he get such a dangerous animal into the classroom?" Lucius muttered.

   Severus gritted his teeth and stared at him.

   "Uh~ I think no one of you cares." Baldwin looked at his phone and said, "I heard that the toast tray in the Museum of Naples was stolen."

  "Toast plate?" Arlette asked.

  "A plate made of agate that can be used to hold wine and cakes, but the bottom of the plate is carved with the story of Prometheus."

   "This kind of plate can't be used to hold the sacrament." Allette said.

   "I don't know what it is for. The museum uses it as an art exhibition." Baldwin said.

   "I can go to Notre Dame to get some frankincense." Arlette said, looking at the two staring at each other.

   "I'll go." Baldwin said, just about to leave the secret room.

   "Stop." Severus said, and then he walked to the side of the statue of Our Lady of Xuanyi.

The roses that the Virgin holds in her hand are all plastic flowers. Only the golden rose is made of gold or gilded copper. He turned that rose into an incense burner using transfiguration, and then took a small piece of red grease, It was lit.

   "Oh, God." Arlette closed his eyes and prayed, "Please forgive these sinners."

   "It's just burning incense." Lucius complained, "What crime did we commit?"

  Alright read the scriptures alone.

  As the grease burned, a white smoke floated out from the gap of the incense burner. It swirled continuously in the stone chamber, slowly extending towards the dome.

  The scene was so magical, everyone stared at it until the smoke gradually approached a crystal ball.

   With a "pop", the outer shell of the crystal ball shattered, and the glass and the smoke inside drifted away together, and a figure was vaguely clamoring in the fog.

   "...we have to severely cleanse those social scum!" the man said in English.

   "I know him." Lucius said with a smirk and smiled. "It turns out that because of this, it's no wonder that the whole of Europe will be caught in the flames of war."

  　 These are the original words of a certain politician. This person is now in prison, with the social scum he says

  　　 Besides, this plastic flower friendship is really sweet
