Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2320 peternnnchen (two)

  Farron called Napoleon the head of state, which is the name used by people of the Georgiana faction, which was used by David at the end of the republic and before the monarchy was implemented. In addition, it also involves the Republic of the Southern Alps. Lyon is closer than Paris, not to mention that the founding ceremony of the Republic of the Southern Alps was also held in Lyon.

  This is actually a gamble, after all, Georgiana does not have the same legal protection as Josephine, but Bonaparte has repeatedly asked the archbishops to hold a religious wedding for them as a joke.

   Even if the formalities of the secular law have been completed, the divorce will not take effect without the permission of the Pope. For example, the marriage of Louis and Ortens, which has both secular formalities and religious weddings, is equivalent to having double insurance. But if Louis thinks that he must break free, it is not impossible. Just like the constitution of the Republic does not allow the first ruling to lead the army, but it does not prohibit him from accompanying the army. that is prohibited".

Georgiana did not see the contract drawn up by the Dutch banker and Bonaparte, she could only see the one she had signed, but that would have to wait until Farron was gone. He seemed to be bombarding wildly. I told her a bunch of news, which made her brain hurt.

  What a man is doing outside is difficult for a woman to know at home. Napoleon's original intention of letting Farron meet her was to ask her to arrange those exiled nobles. Farron is not as annoying as Bertin, and he has never done anything to collect debts from former customers. Anyway, it probably means this. After the French stepped on the ice and entered the Netherlands, they have been stationed there since the Republic of Batavia was established. In 1799, the United Kingdom sent troops to land. The French thought it was an invasion of the United Kingdom of Great Britain, but the Republic of Batavia did not think it was an invasion. The civilians of the Republic did not think so. At that time, in August, the British and Russian forces commanded by the Duke of York The landing near Den Helder forced the remnants of the Dutch fleet to surrender, with blood and destruction unprecedented in the Netherlands. It is precisely because of this war that the Dutch admiral escorted Napoleon across the Strait of Calais, who defeated Nelson.

At that time, a large part of these Batavia defenders were sent to Vendée to fight the rebellion, but the high military expenses for countering the rebellion were paid by the Republic of Batavia, on the grounds that the French garrison was stationed on the Rhine River defense line in the Republic of Batavia. It even occupied Vlissingen in 1800. Napoleon was already the first ruler at that time. He threatened the Republic of Batavia and paid less than 1.6 million pounds to France, then he would not return Vlissingen. He also forced the merchants in Amsterdam to borrow 400,000 pounds to the French army.

Then it was the turn of the Hanseatic city of Hamburg. Hamburg was accused of paying several Irish resistance elements hiding in France to the Kingdom of Great Britain, so a huge fine was issued to the "Free City" of Hamburg. Although Hamburg made reparations, it did not Instead of entering the accounts of the Ministry of Finance of the First French Republic, it settled the arrears of "Madame Bonaparte" Josephine to pay for her beautiful clothes and luxurious travel, and the other part was used for the loan for the purchase of Malmaison Castle.

  The castle of Malmaison was bought with a loan. Napoleon was still in Egypt at that time, and he was a general with a clean image. The remaining money was used to buy various gifts, and then the indemnity for Hamburg was gone.

   Originally, the Dutch did not have much interest in setting up an Industrial Credit Bank, but Napoleon threw the bait again during a meeting with the bankers. During the reign of Charles IV, the electoral states were allowed to collect duties and coinage, including the duchy of the bishop princes. Although the popes were caught in Avignon as prisoners, they still had the right to mint coins.

  The early coinage of the Papal State used the image of the reigning pope, and this kind of money was called petermannchen, but by the time of Pius VI and Pius VII, this power was taken away.

   In addition, there is a currency called kaste, which is minted by the electors who have the right to mint coins. This money is different from Riffel. There are no kings' heads on Riffel. Louis XIV only had gold coins with kings' heads on them. This kind of money is called Golden Louis.

Whether it is Peter coin or Caster coin, it is not as high-quality as the currency circulating in France. The new franc will be implemented next year, which means that some of the original inferior currency will be recovered and recast. discussed this issue.

   It is no problem to ask those German princes to take the coins back. Where is the key to recasting? The Netherlands and Antwerp have a coin exchange business. They feel that it is better to set up the mint here. Anyway, with the British steam minting machine, the minting has become very convenient and fast, although it is still not as fast as printing paper money.

The paper-based Danish kroner is printed very fast, but they do not have a central bank to control the amount of money issued. The Dutch guilder has been issued since the 13th century. In the 16th century, the Dutch Republic held a three-level meeting to determine the silver guilder as the currency in circulation. 1 The Dutch guilder is equal to 20 stuiver. At that time, a coin called daalder was popular in Central Europe. It was worth one and a half guilders or 30 stuiver. Because Germany did not have a central government like Britain and France, and the coinage standards were different, it was not until 1750 that Prussia introduced the purity standard, which stipulated the silver content of the thaler, and this system became the basic monetary system of North Germany. Not only the inferior thaler coins before 1750 will be recycled, but the crown thaler will also be recycled. This coin face is named after a large crown. Although its purity is good, it must be francs in the former Austrian Netherlands. Replaced, and even part of South Germany.

   Currently, the establishment of a central bank requires a shareholding system, but it is prohibited. Only two national banks in England and France adopt a shareholding system. The bank of this partnership system is risky, but it also has its advantages. In order to be safe, the first thing is to "trap" Napoleon and make him one of the partners. As long as he does not start a war, "there is no risk".

Of course these bankers are not pacifists. It is forbidden to give loans to farmers because they do not have the approval of the government, but the base of French farmers is so large that if they have to accept every loan, then the civil servants can't do anything else. already? Or expand the recruitment of civil servants to form a huge and bloated institution?

  Although it is prohibited by law, it can still be put on the shelf. Farming loans have given bankers a legal channel, and they don’t have to worry about lending in the future.

The purpose of farming loans is to buy farmers seeds, fertilizers, improve soil, increase farm tools and livestock for the coming year, increase yield and production efficiency, and get rid of the current backward farming methods. .

   Even if you say it, it will basically fall on deaf ears, but the peasants are not as bold as those British money order managers, who can use the same routine to multiply their loans 10 times.

In the East, what is called a virtuous government may not be possible in the West. Napoleon was persuaded because of the usury in Alsace. The farmers really needed loans, but the usury made the farmers lose their land, and people hated those usurers. , and even the robbers who robbed them as heroes.

The story of Zorro takes place during the Spanish rule of Mexico. There is a debt **** system in Mexico, that is, after the colonial authorities turned Mexico into a colony, the original soldiers became settlers, and new towns were established according to the Spanish towns. Citizens are granted cavalry and pasture allocations.

  In the beginning, there were two types of Spanish peasants, one was the slaves of Azcot, and the other was the servants of the Spanish nobles, mainly stewards, overseers, tax collectors, and accountants. However, the earliest debt **** system was not a large manor, but a wool textile workshop. The main labor force in the workshop was debt employees. The owner of the workshop signed a contract, and the nominal wages, time, and labor rights and obligations were approved by the judge. If they couldn't get it, they were all used to repay the debt, and the workshop became a big prison, and the real prison was empty all of a sudden.

   There are also some employers who force employees to buy daily necessities, food, labor tools, etc. in workshops and shops. Even if they are not ordinary employees of debt employees, they become debt employees because of debts.

   Later, a large number of Azcot and Spanish mixed blood appeared in the society. They increased the available temporary labor. The village community that lost the land still retained the administrative autonomy, forming a large manor, which required a large number of temporary labor. It’s still the same, people need some daily necessities in their lives, and they should pay for it on credit first, and then make up for it when they have the wages of daily workers.

   But natural and man-made disasters continued, smallpox took many lives, in addition to heavy rains and droughts, and various taxes from the governor.

   People who also live in that land have different opinions, and there are many people who are responsible in that paradise of extrajudicial fanatics. Some bonded farmers let the farmer pay for a few months and then run away with the advance salary. The creditor is more willing to borrow money from people who have lived there for a long time. These people have bargaining power and relative freedom. They regard how much the creditor intends to pay as the value of their investment, the security of their jobs, and some seasonal workers are not allowed to owe debts.

  Once the agricultural loan is opened, it will be flooded. Bonaparte's original attempt to please the peasants may have backfired, even if the loan is only 5% interest.

This time the sale of Louisiana failed. Originally, as one of the conditions, Sir Francis of the Bank of Barings was going to persuade the British government to maintain peaceful relations. The banker Pierre Cesar Laboucher sent by the Netherlands was Bahrain. son-in-law, friend of Gabriel Oufrard and William Pitt, Jr., who represented Hope Bank.

Napoleon sold Louisiana, then the United States can go west, expand American farms and cotton plantations, increase the slave trade, and banks such as Hope Bank that engage in the slave trade will make a lot of money, at least until the American Civil War breaks out. war until the abolition of slavery.

   Don't sell Louisiana, you can continue to promote bonded farms, Louisiana itself speaks more Spanish, and those bonded farmers can buy whatever "European goods" they want.

   Napoleon needed a glorious victory to salvage the defeat of Santo Domingo. It was the Rhine Legion that went to Santo Domingo, and these people were almost wiped out. Under the premise that France did not recruit troops in 1802, where would these lost soldiers come from?

   If you do not withdraw, you will be threatened by force. Withdrawal must meet certain conditions. It is the same thing if you agree or not.

Josephine's nickname for Napoleon was "General". When the land sale negotiations failed, Bahrain and Hope Bank immediately revised the plan. In the new plan, England occupied the northern states of the United States and united with Canada, while the southern states were owned by France. Napoleon would be given the title of "King of the United States," which sounds more enticing than "Louis XVI, the founding father of the United States."

   But that means war and the loss of huge commercial benefits, and France is going from a neutral country between Britain and the United States to a warring country.

I don’t know if it’s the Bourbon dynasty or the commonality of the French. We must pay attention to the victory of the war. There is also a war corridor in Versailles, which depicts many French victorious wars, but whether it is the Spanish War of Succession or the American War. , all suffered losses when negotiating peace agreements. Although the United Kingdom lost, it gained benefits.

  Napoleon's famous battle of Toulon saw "Little Gibraltar", but the real Gibraltar was in the hands of the Duke of York.

It's not that simple to make men look down on winning or losing. Buying and selling official positions is just a means, just like Draco bought all the Slytherin members the latest broomsticks so that he could compete with the "airborne" Harry Potter. Compete, not wait until you are old enough to play.

   Gryffindor has lost to Slytherin for many years, whether it's the House Cup or Quidditch, but there are still people who think they are the best house.

Minerva saw Harry's talent and broke the rules and made him a Gryffindor suitor, then Slytherin also broke the rules, why is Harry Potter so special, because he is " Savior"? Or was it Draco's "Saint Potter"?

Especially in the Academy Cup at the end of the year, the "Forever Trio" added 150 points per person, and Neville's 50 points. Gryffindor fought back and turned defeat into victory. In an instant, the decoration of the auditorium changed from green to red. , Slytherin did not leave in full anger. Sipomona has always thought it was a miracle.

Adversarial games are fun to have opponents. Without Slytherin as opponents, Ravenclaw, who likes "Quiet Lake" and Hufflepuff, who is "indisputable", will not be as knowledgeable as lions. After Wood, Hogwarts has been a player who joined the professional game without graduating for several years, and even Wood has to sit on the bench for a few years.

There is a rule in the professional league that you can't use the Firebolt, which affects the fairness of the game, but international competitions are not among them. In the 1994 Quidditch World Cup, the Irish Quidditch national team used this kind of broom to defeat the "poor" broom. Bulgaria, even if they had Victor Bloom, but even with Firebolts, Victor Bloom got the Snitch in that game.

   Hufflepuff has always been in charge of watching dramas (eat melons), but he did not expect to be selected as the "champion" of the Triwizard Tournament.

  Three hundred years! This is the first time!

   Then Harry Potter came along and became the fourth contestant.

  You are the protagonist, are you amazing?

   There happened to be a sycophant Justin who was willing to pay for the badge by himself, so she pretended not to see it and acquiesced to the children to carry it.

   During that time, Harry had a very difficult time, from being the most popular to being a "stinky shit", but he didn't actually do anything, but was framed, but no one believed him, including his friend Ron.

  The world does not have so many regrets, and not all misunderstandings are forgiven through apologies.

She decides to think about him before defining him as a bad person. This is also the pros and cons of being alone. There is more time to think, although it also makes her uninformed. Maybe everything Farron said has been exhausted. Everyone knows.

She was also willing to believe that Edgeworth didn't know the secret plans of the people he introduced. She even believed that Josephine said that in order to determine whether anyone in Parliament had plotted against Napoleon, she was willing to believe that Charles, the handsome dart and cavalry, was willing to believe, what else? Do not believe it?

  The premise of love is trust, "What makes me sad is not that you lied to me, but that I can't trust you anymore".

  A good chef wants a guest who can appreciate his cooking, just like a musician wants an audience who understands him.

  If she was a man, she would love Josephine too, who wouldn’t want to have a romantic date with an attractive woman at the best restaurant in Paris?

   That dinner Pomona and Severus had at Victor Hugo's really failed, even though they were eating very fine food.

  Unfortunately, she is a woman, and women are rarely jealous.

   He said that he regretted ceding Venice, so that he could dance with the most beautiful woman in the most beautiful living room in Europe.

   It's not worth waging a war for this anyway, and she doesn't want to be Helen, an excuse for men to start a war.

  God knows what she thought before, she must be crazy to feel that way.
