Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2389 "The Magician's Apprentice" (middle)

The early morning on Wall Street started with the aroma of coffee. In the 17th century, coffeehouses became a place for people to obtain information and share in England. The first coffeehouse quickly became popular after it opened in Boston, and became an important part of the newspaper. source.

For "brokers" specializing in securities trading in the 18th century, drinking coffee was actually similar to going to the stock exchange, similar to the Dutch in the 17th century trading tulip bulbs in taverns, but with one difference, tulip mania really Trade bulbs.

  For people in the 21st century, Wall Street bells have become accustomed to ringing, it not only represents the opening or closing of the market, but also represents a new stock listing or something. But in "ancient" it also meant the arrival of ships, and it meant not only European shipments, but messages to the New World, at least until the Agamemnon laid cables under the sea.

  There is a term in the cafe called "Double Knock", which means a transaction between two or more brokers. The stock exchange is a place for "public" trading. It does not buy and sell securities itself, nor does it determine the price of securities, but provides venues and facilities for securities trading, and is equipped with management and service personnel, but its most important role is supervision. First, the securities must be delivered the next day, and second, to prevent black-box operations, that is, to prevent "knocking", artificially pushing up or depressing the stock price, but this is very difficult to implement, at least on Wall Street's second stock exchange. It was difficult to do before the establishment.

There is a card in the   tarot card called the magician. This card represents something out of nothing. The purpose of knocking is to create a volume from nothing. Generally, it is to attract retail investors to follow up. Later, it was derived as a trading method.

A young man who experienced the Asian financial crisis once talked to her about Gone with the Wind. He didn't like Melanie, whom everyone liked, because he thought she was fake, which made Pomona sad for a while, and then again. After thinking for a long time, she finally came to a conclusion. Melanie is a typical southern woman, she can't kill deserters who break into the house with a gun like Scarlett, but she can at least pretend she has a knife, so that Scarlett feels supported and affirmed, for The guilt of murder is less severe.

Tolerance is Melanie's means of survival in troubled times. She can't survive on her own, so she forgives Scarlett, who misses her husband Ashley. If you lose Ashley and Scarlett, you will also lose your own survival.

   Like she knew slavery was evil, but without the cotton plantation, she was too weak to survive on that land. It's actually very painful to live like this. Even if Melanie hadn't been sickly due to childbirth, she wouldn't have been able to survive as tough as Scarlett.

  In addition to being beautiful, Scarlett is also characterized by her vigor and vitality. She is quite selfish and robbed her sister's fiancé and made her an old girl. But if her younger sister and the grocer get married, she will only be a grocer's wife. When the estate left by her parents cannot be maintained, she can do nothing, and she may have to express her sympathy for her sister's misfortune.

When Scarlett arrived at the grocery store, she immediately saw the timber and the business opportunity to rebuild Atlanta. She used that small grocery store to open a lumber mill. After slavery was illegal, she used prisoners from the prison to save the cost at the beginning of the business. Later, she Not only kept the manor, but also became a big timber merchant.

  Georgianna didn't like Scarlett either. She liked being held in her arms, but when she woke up early in the morning, she already understood how far that kind of happiness was from her.

   After sitting on the bed for a while, she got up and took a shower. Bertin was already waiting for her, and she had prepared Georgiana's outfit for the day, looking like a wake-up call.

  Marie Antoinette once complained about the cumbersome court etiquette, and Georgiana didn't want to waste too much time on these cutscenes. After choosing a set of clothes, she "goes out". In the living room outside the suite, the people from last night were already gathered, and there were even two new faces.

   Soros was not alone when he attacked the Thai baht, but a team, and despite the flaws in the financial markets of the 19th century, it was difficult to do like him.

   As Machiavelli said, if too many people know about a conspiracy, it is easy to leak the news.

   "Sit down, gentlemen," she said to the crowd.

   So everyone found a chair and sat down. Not long after, Margaret asked the attendant to put breakfast on the dining table, and the smell of coffee suddenly wafted in the room.

   Making bread and making coffee is a lot easier than what they're going to discuss next, and Pomona used to get happiness out of it, and it still does.

But if she doesn't do something now, when the Mississippi conflict breaks out, or when France sells Louisiana to the United States, the "balance" is broken, the Peace of Amiens can't be maintained, the war in Europe will break out again, and in peace All the designs made under the conditions will come to nothing, and thousands of families will be affected.

  Due to the South Sea Bubble, the Bubble Act was promulgated. The establishment of banks and joint-stock companies in the United Kingdom requires parliamentary approval. The same is true in the United States. Before the War of Independence, there were only 7 companies in the entire American colonies. After the war, the royal family transferred the power to approve the establishment of the company to the parliaments of the various states, but Hamilton took this power to the federal government. That is to say, people in the frenzy don't actually get approval to form a bank, but they can claim to have it, such as the New York Million Bank, which has gone public, and investors are rushing to buy the company's stock until the news is clarified. Soon people will understand that there will be a sell-off at this time, and the stock price will fall second, and there are no skyscrapers in New York in this era.

  The bankruptcy law of the United States is based on the bankruptcy law of the United Kingdom and adjusted according to the national conditions of the United States, but the formulation of the bankruptcy law of the United States has not been successful. Even with a devil-like lawyer, Doerr can't escape jail without a legal basis.

   And his partner, Secretary of War Alexander McComb, who Doerr speculated to use his money first, then his own, who also went to jail for bankruptcy.

  The apprentice screwed up the magic, and the old wizard cleaned up the mess for him. She screwed up and didn't know what the consequences would be. At most, Josephine ruined the man who represented her foreign exchange. If she wasn't forced to, she didn't want to go to this point. But since if she didn't sell it, she had to use force to solve it, so she had to do it before the real hot war happened.

  Because of the opening of new shipping routes, the trade center was transferred from the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic coast. This is recorded in the history books. The British also relied on the geographical advantage of the Atlantic Ocean, but this has a prerequisite. If you want to fight the battle of Waterloo, you still need an army. Napoleon told her that because Athens is too powerful, and the fear caused by this power to Sparta, the Peloponnesian War is inevitable, and a new rising power is bound to face it. A challenge to the existing great powers.

People are willing to die for what they want and for what they already have. People who live a full and good life generally don't want to be involved in war. She used to be that kind of person, but she was forced to leave. A place to hide.

   When we love a goal together, we will not unite because of it, but when we hate a goal, we hope to find like-minded people.

  Because when we are hurt and long for revenge, we always hope that others will stand on our side.

   She doesn't want to be a woman like Bella, so sooner or later she will vent her fury to everything in the world.

  Although she knew she shouldn't deny the fact that she wasn't human, deep down, she might be like Remus Lupin.

  When we stare at the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you. After fighting with the dragon for a long time, we will also become a dragon.

   She still wanted to be the one who would like to be a Hufflepuff-senpai and find a sunny day where she would lie on the grass and bask in the sun with her eyes closed.

   "Wow!"

   She opened her eyes and found a **** dog not far away.

   Then she found a ball on the ground, she threw it out, and the black dog picked it up.

   She thinks this game is very interesting, and she won't get tired of playing it for a day. Maybe her fun is that simple.
