Chapter 2067 houseoflord (5)

In the autumn of 1779, when the War of Independence began to change because of France’s participation in the war, Joshua Wedgwood heard that his second son Jos was ill at the boarding school. He also ventured through the rioting crowd in Cottontown. Visit your children.

  However, when he arrived, he discovered that Jos's disease was not a disease that could be cured by medicine.

  There will be various problems in closed boarding schools, and not everyone is as smooth as Harry Potter.

  As a father, he made a choice that he felt was beneficial to the children, took the children home, and then hired a tutor to teach lessons that he found useful.

Wedgwood is also a boss. He knows exactly what kind of people he needs. Of course, his son and employees are different. They will inherit his family business in the future, but Joshua Wedgwood himself did not think of it. His factory was inherited by his daughter Su Ji who was sent to London.

  The school was opened by Bolton, and Bolton can be understood as the "king" of Birmingham.

For Wedgwood, Staffordshire is the city of ceramics. Before he set off to lobby in London, he wrote a booklet-"To Pottery Factory Workers on Serving Foreign Manufacturers", British Low tariffs have attracted a lot of imports, making the bank draft business very prosperous, but it may also bring disadvantages.

  In short, he felt that manufacturers had no say in parliament, and politicians who focused on partisan struggle were indifferent to reform. A game of "cat and mouse" was popular throughout the 1880s. At that time, many countries believed that mastering foreign knowledge or models was a fair game, even a patriotic act, so commercial and industrial espionage continued.

The benefits of Britain’s first industrial revolution are obvious. Adults regard machines and models as diplomatic bargaining chips. For example, Britain sold machines to countries such as Portugal and Belgium, making them their allies, and big men can become These factory owners are brokers of power.

   But instead of buying big shots, becoming a big shot is also an option. Robert Peel, the elder of the northern factory, became a member of Parliament and can go to the parliament to participate in the "third reading."

  Collusion between officials and businessmen, power-to-money transactions, you can say anything. The Nobel Prize in Literature Berrant Russell once said: In order to survive, do people have to accept the success they bring, but the sins that cause suffering to others?

  In Chinese, it means “I would rather let the people of the world take the world instead of letting the people of the world take me”. This is still written in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. As for whether Cao Cao really said this sentence, it cannot be verified.

  Georgiana felt that Cao Cao might not have said that when he was young, he was still a person with a sense of justice. This kind of shameless declaration is not like a generation of heroes said.

  The real "I would rather let the people of the world take the world, and not let the people of the world take me" is "After I die, even if the flood is so terrible." Being an emperor or a king is for pleasure. What do you not be an emperor for pleasure?

  The second chapter of the first volume of social contract theory wrote: The oldest and only natural society in all societies is the family.

  In fact, the police are not necessary. According to the British "Taixing System", each family has a head of household to patrol, which can ensure the security of the community. The residents of Birmingham can also hire cavalry without giving the money.

However, this system has become impossible to implement due to urbanization and the increase in the number of foreign populations, and the increase in population flow. Let alone the harmonious society of "old and old and the old, young and young and the young", the bad guys. They couldn't be brought to justice. A child who stole a handkerchief would be gutted, otherwise he would be put on a boat and exiled to the colony.

  There will be a lot of headaches for children in the “later” period, but people in the 18th and 19th centuries are not in a hurry.

  Georgiana was indeed deserted when she came to the cape where the orphanage was built. Although it looked a bit intact from a distance, there was dry wormwood growing on the wall, swaying with the sea breeze.

  She surpassed the British cavalry a lot of distance. She could turn back immediately, but when she moved her eyes downward, she found that there were buildings under the hillside. It was repaired along the mountain, and looked like a brass leather wrapped in the bow of the "Alert", protecting the limestone mountain with hard rocks.

  It is certainly not built in modern times, or even built in the Middle Ages. On the contrary, it is very similar to the ancient Roman architecture that Giorgioanna saw in Lyon.

  Curiosity can kill the cat. Georgiana took a look at the back. The cavalry was thrown away by her, so she rode her horse closer.

  This is a small fortress, not to mention that she just wants to have a rough look, it shouldn’t be too much time.

  "Stop." Suddenly someone said, "You should go back, madam."

  Georgiana followed the voice and looked over, and found that it was a French soldier in a blue uniform.

  If this “ruin” is well protected, it will be a very good lookout point. If guns are installed, it can even be attacked. This may be part of the fortifications that Napoleon dug on the mountain.

  She didn't say anything, turned the horse's head and ran back. In the middle, she met the British soldier.

   "Turn around." Georgianna said to him, "This is the two of us."

  He sneered, as if intending to move on.

   "From here, we play fair." She said calmly, "Do you think you really let me?"

   "Bonaparte must have matched you with the best horse." The cavalry said unconvinced.

   "Why don't you think it might be other reasons, you are much heavier than me."

  The cavalry stared at her without answering.

   "If the game is fast, you are not my opponent, but if it is fighting, I am definitely not as good as you."

  "Do you want to know why the Duchess is targeting you so much?" The cavalry said, "She is trying to see who is the number one beauty in Scotland."

  Georgiana rolled her eyes, "I'm not interested in arguing with her."

   "You don't need to pretend to be noble."

   "I didn't pretend to be noble!"

  The cavalry did not continue to fight with her, as if he didn't want to talk nonsense with the woman.

   "What did you do before you joined the army?" Georgiana asked.

   "I'm the tavernkeeper's son." The cavalry had to answer the order.

   "Why enlist in the army?"

  He did not answer immediately.

  "For defense of Napoleon Bonaparte." Just when Georgiana was about to give up, he replied, "I know what he did in Italy. I will not let my homeland and England be robbed by those robbers."

  Georgiana looked at him.

   When there is no longer a domestic tax increase and a foreign war is required, there are other ways besides imposing a high war tax on the occupying power to support the war.

  At present, the United Kingdom is one of the richest countries in the world, and she can't imagine what it will be like.

  "You may not know that continuing to fight against Napoleon's dictatorship is a need and a responsibility for the British," the soldier said.

   "Why do you think I don't know?"

  "Have you ever experienced despair? And the pain caused by not seeing hope." The soldier asked her.

   "What about you?" she asked the guy who seemed to be about 20 years old.

"Yes, my stepfather can kick me out of the house at any time, and then I will be like those who get drunk in the tavern." The soldier said, "He gave me a job until I was an adult, and then I I enlisted in the army."

  She was speechless.

"Those who are drunk, I have seen many people who want to regain their spirits and change this kind of life, but as soon as they ignited hope, they were struck by another setback and despair, just like a duke, you look at him like It's okay, but he has only experienced the pain of losing his brother and wife, who are all his loved ones."

   "You don't have to tell me."

   "I know you want to make peace, and we need peace now, but you should know that your efforts are useless, so be nice to yourself."

   "I now know what it feels like to say what you are talking about." Georgiana smiled and said, "I just feel a little hopeful, so you will hit me."

   "The same with you." The soldier said, "Now you understand why I hate you?"

  Georgiana did not answer.

  "Do you want to continue the ‘fair play’?" the soldier asked.

  Georgiana rides a horse to stand side by side with him.

   "I count to three, and then we will run together." The soldier said.

"no problem."

"one"

"two"

"three!"

  As soon as his voice fell, the two horses ran out together, looking like horses in a racecourse, and as soon as the baffle was lowered, they started to gallop, there was no audience and no cheers.

  No, maybe there are in the bunker behind, but unfortunately they won't make a sound because they are performing a task.
