Chapter 1857 Giantslayer (1)
Many people have fantasized about Cleopatra's appearance, what kind of woman can fascinate Caesar.
Even if it is not as beautiful as Elizabeth Taylor, and has a pair of violet eyes, at least it should be protruding backwards, similar to the goddess of liberty Marianna with a Gallic chicken on her head.
According to Bonaparte's always “taste”, the type he likes should be the blonde, slim, and flaming red lips like the Medici Venus.
Except for being a little shorter than him, no one of Georgiana can match the above mentioned ones, and based on his correspondence with the Prince of Wales, his evaluation of her is "daring and short", without mentioning how sweet she is. ,gentle.
Usually, she is a simple one, and she is very conscious of being suspected of being a spy. Anyone who has seen a "real person" has not felt the "witch's magic", but the ministers of her faction wear an olive branch brooch made of emeralds on their chests. It is said to be based on the Anmin notice issued by the French army when they were in Italy. Victory sword, olive branch in one hand. It is now as politically significant as the beards of men in the army and the cap badges on their hats. It is no longer just an accessory.
Many of the merchants who donated money to repair the Saint-Martin Canal are Lyonians, and everyone knows how much Lyon is favored. Freight is largely related to insurance, and insurance is related to safety, such as wars, pirates, etc., if there is less world peace and pirates, the cost of insurance will be reduced, and thus the freight will be reduced, and the freight will be lower. There are fewer people engaged in transportation.
This is a very simple truth. Who wants to work without money, and the risk is still so high, even if there are no pirates and bandits, the unpredictable weather on the sea and the trekking all the way make many people discouraged.
There are man-eating monsters such as mermaid and giant. Of course, high risks hope high returns, but the owner desperately squeezes the freight in order to expand profits, because they feel that transportation has no technical content and can be done by individuals.
The most important thing is the circulation of commodities. This is not only physical objects, but also information. Even in a famine year, not every place is in arrears. Some provinces have low food prices, and some provinces are expensive. According to the laws of free markets , The cheap goods will be transported to high-priced places for sale under profit-driven, so that it can play a role in stabilizing prices.
The theory is so, but opaque information will also make consumers make wrong judgments. Grain merchants who hold a large amount of grain in their hands sell at high prices. Collusion between interest groups will cause them to advance and retreat together, not as in a free market economy. Price reduction due to competition.
This can be regarded as a traditional feature. For example, in the Montpellier financial and textile industry circle where the wife of the Minister of the Interior Sharptal belongs, whether a poor boy can marry a rich lady because he has a patent in his hand, ending the monopoly of Turkish red cloth. For the upper classes in Europe and even the United States, they are more willing to believe in the internal news of small circles than to believe in the rumours of the lower classes. Public knowledge cannot create wealth. Everyone knows that the earth is round, but in the age when I know the earth is round and you don't know, new routes can create profits. After Waterloo, Nathan Rothschild was in the exchange. The operation is also based on poor information. He knows who really won. Others don't know. When Nathan sells the British government bonds, he also sells them. When the price of the government bonds drops, Nathan will be wiped out again. If he can't control his emotions at the time. , Yelled "France won", then it is not him who makes money.
This is a special skill of Wisengama's chief mage love disciple. No matter what the situation is, they will always keep a clear head, even if they are about to risk their lives to explore when they are divorced by their husbands.
Maybe the first ruler of France, who was powerful and occupied half of Europe, did not have the power to declare her marriage invalid, but Severus could. The fortresses were disintegrated from the inside faster. After so many years, the problem of nasal discharge remained unchanged.
Controlling your emotions is like controlling the horse in your heart. This is difficult to do. Therefore, a lot of practice is required. Whose riding skills are not born very well, even if they are nomads who grew up on horseback. .
Frivolity belongs to young people. There are very few monsters as young as Georgiana who still maintain a young appearance. Unless it is the kind that has gone through a lot of twists and turns, it is difficult not to be as insecure as Pauline.
She was Bonaparte's tool for revenge against Josephine, and she also hoped that she would have a child, but Pauline, the tailor's daughter, did not give birth to a child, and she could not integrate into the upper class like Josephine.
After weighing the pros and cons, Bonaparte didn't need Josephine to come forward, so he dealt with Cleopatra, who had been driving on the streets of Cairo with him. Many girls can't stand the temptation and want to walk through the streets of everyone, even if Bonaparte is not handsome and short.
Sometimes the wedding girl regards herself as the protagonist, but forgets her husband. Photographers and painters will observe the expressions of the newlyweds. Many times the husband's face is actually very impatient. He has not invested in this role at all, just like After completing a task.
Some boys behaved nervously, for fear that he would mess up the wedding, he had to watch the oaths to be made and the speeches at the wedding banquet over and over again, and he was sweaty after the whole process was over, oh, finally it was over NS!
Vows can be very beautiful, but these people who can say "scene words" secretly hurt those who believe that those words will come true. Women do not believe in men and swear to be useful.
What's the use of swearing? The marriage contract is still useful. It is protected by law. The new civil law does not allow divorce. Women like Mrs. Destal are noisy for this, but it is a guarantee for people like Josephine. As long as there is no divorce, no matter how many women Bonaparte has outside, and how beautiful those women are, they will always be meteors that flash by and will soon disappear unless she is dead.
Most of the wives were killed by the husband. If Bonaparte caught the **** on the spot, Josephine and her little lover would be legal even if they were killed. The problem is that Bonaparte was in Egypt when he heard the news. What if he The choice to divorce at that time was understandable to everyone.
But he forgave Josephine. For the sake of the two children, Eugène and Ottens paid too much.
What the French army did in Pavia has been distorted by rumors and caused great panic. However, in addition to the initial chaos, Bonaparte shot and killed several trouble-making Frenchmen due to strict military discipline. The damage is limited, mainly due to money issues.
He was cruel and inhumane in Egypt. The killing of prisoners was disgraceful. This is where the British newspapers attacked him.
However, compared with what Queen Catherine did, Bonaparte's actions were taken when food was in short supply. It was not a helpless, but an uncompromising choice.
A 5% reduction in food production would result in 5% of people starving to death. With France's population base at the time, roughly 1.2 million people would starve to death, so that food prices would not go up without limit, because everyone can eat enough.
It's of course inhumane to do this. Everyone saves a little bit and is half full, so you will be able to tide over the difficulties. But the feeling of being hungry is not so good. This kind of hunger is different from self-hungry by dieting, but an external cause. Hungry people are angry people, which is another original sin of human beings.
Without property inequality, society cannot exist, and without religion, property inequality cannot be maintained. When a person is starving to death, but there is another person next to him who is full and vomiting, he cannot tolerate this difference unless an authority says to him: God's will is like this, and there must be poor people in this world. There are also rich people; but in the next life and in eternal life, the distinction between rich and poor will be completely different.
After the Gironde's abolition of the price ceiling, people's suffering is not only due to the shortage of food, but also from the "market law" of the higher prices of materials. The store has inventory, and the rich only need to go to the store to buy it. However, in the past, wealthy people, property owners, or wealthy people could buy food by paying bundles of coupons and taking out the privately-hidden Golden Louis. They could even spend money to eat a big meal and enjoy high-end Red wine and exquisite dishes, while a large number of lower-class people in Paris struggled to survive.
They sent kings and nobles to the guillotine, and soon became beggars. Because they killed their boss's boss, the factory could no longer pay the workers.
The new regime took over those industries, but expected the market economy to solve those problems on its own, or to give superficial charity, many people were hungry to commit suicide.
There was a mother with a child because she did not get the bread, so she tied the child to her waist and jumped into the Seine together. Several women who were about to give birth requested immediate delivery to kill the child in their abdomen.
Because of poverty and despair, people will do very irrational things. What is the solution? Confiscate the assets of the church.
Not much is really distributed to the poor. Most of them are divided up by the upper strata. A large number of people become weak or even unable to work because of reduced food intake, especially women, who use rubbish, rotten vegetables, and butcher shops. The blood in the house is food, and the man dare not go home because he has a wife and children who are starving to death, and he has no food in his hands.
The National Convention collapsed. The hungry people shouted for revenge and sent Gironde to the guillotine.
In fact, the Jacobins are not necessarily good people. Many radical movements have their participation. They have absorbed a large number of people from the bottom of society. These people are different from the "sleeveless guys" such as small hotels and butchers. The first is The inferior husband who gloated when the employer lost money, followed by thrift dealers, second dealers, little cooks who sold grilled meat and lentils at the cemetery of the innocents under parasols, and domestic servants who thought they could now give orders to their masters.
However, the most common thing in this mud is from the "bubble and mud" class. They include villains in various trades, bohemian lives, unruly laborers, and thieves running through the crowd. Most of these people are in Salbetril. After staying in the detention center, he lived a disorderly life after being released, and then used the matchtel hospital as his home.
"Come from Salbetril and go to Xingtel Hospital" is the life motto of these people. Their lives are uncontrolled and regular. No matter if they have 50 livres or only 5, they will all be alone. Not all left was left. It was this group of people who captured the Bastille and started the August Incident.
No one will lend them money. They have no feelings for their mother-in-law, and they often leave their children waiting to be fed at home, go to the Tuileries or the Jacobin Club alone to participate in activities, in their opinion, participate in political activities , It's more comfortable to get money by applauding people in parliament.
"Chrisson" fell down in Paris for a while after breaking up with her first love, Eugenie, and then got mixed up with these people.
On September 2, 1792, in Chalons-sur-Marne, the eighty-year-old priest Chanlaire had just finished his routine Nikkei class in Mail. I hurried home with my prayer book. On the way he met some Parisian volunteers; the latter thought he looked too pious and might be dissatisfied with the revolution in his heart, so he asked him to shout: "Long live freedom!" The old priest's ear did not hear, so he did not respond. They grabbed his ears; because he was too old to walk as fast as them, his ears were torn during the pulling. When these people saw the blood, they were very excited. They simply cut off the priest's ears and nose with a knife and took him to the entrance of the city hall. At that time, a notary was responsible for inspecting the sentry in the city hall; he ran away in terror as soon as he saw such a horrible sight. Several other National Guard soldiers on duty immediately closed the iron gate of the city hall. So these Paris volunteers pushed the poor priest to the regional government and the provincial government to "shock the nobles."
On the road, they kept beating the old man, who could not stand the abuse and fell to the ground. So they immediately cut off his head, dismantled the remaining corpse into eight pieces, and picked up the priest's head with a spear on the street.
On August 10, 1791, Bonaparte saw a group of people walking by in Xiaoying Street. They also had a spear in their hands and a head on it.
Those people saw that Bonaparte might be a good person, and they asked him to call "Long live the nation". Bonaparte was young. He heard it, so they immediately called "Long live the nation", and those people let him go.
At the time of the witch hunt, the scene was not like that. At the Wizards' Tribunal in Salem, the judge asked Bishop, "You said you are not a witch, then do you know what a real witch is like"? At that time, I was still playing a word game. Although I couldn't answer that Bishop was about to die, he was still civilized.
Order is fragile. The universe is full of disorder. It is not so easy to find order in the chaotic and disordered state. Man creates gods and throws all the problems that he can't solve to it. It is also a process of exploration for people to understand it, just like every time they take a little wealth from the safe, they will be crushed to death by Jinshan if they know too much.
Maybe people cannot distinguish a witch who deliberately disguised themselves, but they can distinguish a devout old priest. Isn't Father Shang Caile an example?
The feeling of being recognized from the crowd is not always wonderful. For example, Louis XVI pretending to escape. Some people think that they are disguised, but they don't know how outstanding they are.
Severus' height cannot be disguised as a malnourished civilian. Although he can change his appearance with disguise, or drink compound soup, he can also choose to disguise as a nobleman or an American.
Because of his "Queen's accent" suitable for reading Shakespeare's sonnets, he can no longer pretend to be a lower class. Pretending to be a learned English aristocrat is his best choice.
Academics are another profession besides artists that can be unimpeded in Europe. They can easily enter the upper class and even be recruited by the king. Napoleon recruited Edward Jenner and took the lead in promoting cowpox in France.
This person not only allows ten thousand people to die, but also makes ten thousand people live.
His bath water should not be clear, it should be blood red.
This kind of person should have a beard all over his face, and look extremely mighty or fierce, but he is like an old nobleman, shaved his beard clean, and has the most polite and elegant smile.
Demons are all charming, they will seduce people to fall continuously, even angels will fall.
Normal people are eager to go to heaven, who would think **** is more suitable for them.
With the real Alessandro, Severus and Lucius returned to the mine party venue next to the Monsouri Reservoir. At this time, the sunny boy in sportswear had already put on a customized suit, but he watched Looks gloomy.
His sister definitely doesn't believe that not seeing him for a few hours is like a different person. What makes him like this?
