Chapter 2531 manonamission (twenty-four)

   The last goblin rebellion happened 200 years ago, and it has become a part of "history" for mankind, and the little wizards can only hear it in Professor Binns' dull fourth-grade magic history class. Since no employment required an owls certificate in history class, the students in that class were almost asleep.

Believing that the goblins would not rebel again, Fudge agreed that the director of the Goblin Liaison Office would not have to work on the day Cuthbert Mokridge was at the Quidditch World Cup final, and even other departments and other clerks would allow that day. Take a vacation to attend that festival. But someone has to be assigned to stay on duty, and Amos Diggory is the "unlucky" hapless one. But he did Bagman a small favor and got tickets for the World Cup after they had stopped selling tickets. The entire Ministry of Magic was already busy with the Quidditch World Cup finals. The director went to play, and Amos also What shift are you on?

Ludo Bagman not only owed money, cheated, and was prosecuted as a Death Eater, but in order to give his son a wonderful vacation, Amos accepted Ludo Bagman despite Cedric's objections. Bagman's ticket.

  Ludo Bagman escaped trial mainly because he claimed to be ignorant of everything and that he had no idea that August Rookwood was a Death Eater. And coupled with his excellent performance in previous games, his charges were dropped.

Pomona could never understand the enthusiasm for Quidditch, but what Severus had just said reminded her that Hufflepuff needed a new Seeker after Cedric graduated, and her eyes would stutter while eating. Walk around Hufflepuff's long table to see who has the potential.

   If you're looking for someone who is good at sports, you shouldn't be looking at the dinner table, Gryffindor finds the current Seeker on the playing field.

Pomona turned his gaze to the long table in Gryffindor, Harry was a Quidditch Seeker and was already popular, and since Sirius Black broke into the Gryffindor lounge, the Quidditch players would Harry was protected, and he was surrounded by several people wherever he went.

  Who doesn't know that Harry is "one step ahead" because he always has the latest and greatest broomstick.

   She ate lunch absentmindedly, and out of the corner of her eye caught a glimpse of Severus and Feliwick chatting happily, as if they had a shared "secret" and they were getting closer.

   "I heard that Severus submitted the wolf's poison potion to the Potions Society for the Prince Award," Minerva said.

   "What? When?" asked Pomona in surprise.

   "It seems to have been a month." Minerva recalled, "But the application seems to be a bit difficult, because the wolf poison potion is not an original work of Severus."

  Pomona turned to look at Snape and Feliwick again. The first person who invented the wolf's poison potion was a Ravenclaw who was said to have entered Wizengamot.

   She hoped that she could help, but after thinking about the people she knew, it seemed that no one but Albus could help.

   Just when she was sad, she accidentally saw Cedric, who was laughing happily with his friends.

   It’s a good opportunity to get in touch with Scamander. Cedric doesn’t need to develop in the UK. Albus is also the president of the International Federation of Wizards.

   Then she looked at the long table in Gryffindor, where Neville was sitting awkwardly with Finnigan and Thomas.

   Maybe you should give up, we already have Harry Potter.

   It is enough to have a savior, the same boy born at the end of July, Harry Potter is the "chosen",

  If the savior is like Neville, people will soon lose confidence, if one day the Dark Lord can really complete his crazy experiment, attach his soul to a human body, and then resurrect.

  People need a hope that looks reliable, not someone who can't even remember the password to enter the door.

===================================================== ===========

   "It's an honor to meet you." Georgiana smiled and greeted each other with Edgeworth's escort.

That summer, Pomona took Cedric everywhere to socialize, making up for her fault. Cedric showed excellent social skills. He was not only polite, but also very gentlemanly, and he was calm when shaking hands with people. Self-confident, with adult style, she was sure that Amos Diggory didn't teach him.

  In peaceful times, socializing is more useful than swords, but goblins rarely participate in human social activities, or join as guests, or goblin musicians perform live performances.

   The goblin rebellion has become history for human beings, but it is not for fairies, just like the persecution of wizards taught in the history of magic in the third grade.

   But for the people of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, witch hunts were not in the past. It's not difficult to understand. The process of "modernization" has increased infrastructure, and areas such as agricultural production, housing, health and education have made witchcraft beliefs irrelevant. People are committed to improving living conditions. Who cares if someone rides a bike or not? Flying in the sky with a broom?

  If you want to fly, then invent the aircraft. If you want to communicate faster, then invent and improve the transmission method of the telegraph.

But this is not the case for agriculture and rural areas. The harvest of crops is affected by the weather, whether it is local weather or global weather, as well as the death of livestock. There were animal plagues in the ten plagues of Moses. God caused all livestock in Egypt to suffer from plagues. .

  This is different from the Black Death. When the Black Death patient died, even if the food production decreased due to the Little Ice Age, it could still be distributed to the living people. When the livestock died, the food for the first person was reduced, and the transportation capacity for the second person was gone.

In addition to being unable to irrigate farmland when the Rhine River is dry, the water-based areas will be cut off. Even if there is food for disaster relief, it will not be able to be transported in. On the land, there are large and small vassal states, and each principality must set up cards to collect taxes. It will seriously affect the flow of goods.

   Queen Maria Teresa of Austria implemented a "customs union" which was also an area under her control. Frederick the Great, who was her contemporary, believed that the developed road network was convenient for other countries to invade. Of course, these are things that come later.

  The actions of the British financiers are likely to be instructed by Whitehall. The military adviser in exile in France "saw" Napoleon's plan. Using animal power to fly steam locomotives can get more war horses, and the French cavalry can have horses to ride.

   On the surface, it looks promising, and everyone is so excited to talk flattery, which makes the sheep and dogs full of confidence in the future benefits of this road. When the time came to reveal the issue of the Mississippi conflict, and the news of Napoleon's defeat in Santo Domingo, as soon as confidence was lost, stock prices fell, and it was time for the "big bears" to harvest.

   This is the theory, but the market never went in the direction people expected, and the people who shorted the French East India Company did not expect that the National Government would directly bankrupt the French East India Company.

During the Hundred Years War between England and France, the kings of England and France both wanted to default on their debts. The king of France directly destroyed the Knights Templar, and the United Kingdom declared bankruptcy and refused to repay its debts to Peruzzi Bank, which not only led to the bankruptcy of Peruzzi Bank, but also caused the entire Italian , including Venice in financial crisis.

  Venice wanted to do business with Arabs. At that time, Arabia was still very prosperous. They did not recognize European silver coins. If they wanted to buy oriental luxury goods, they needed to use silver ingots, and Arabs used silver ingots to buy oriental luxury goods.

  During the Hundred Years War, it belonged to the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the Maritime Silk Road had been established, but the main goods had changed from silk in the Sui and Tang Dynasties to porcelain, and a large part of it was spices. It is no longer accurate to call it the Silk Road.

  The Yuan Dynasty was dominated by cavalry, and the economic center was in the north. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the control over the south weakened. This period was also the period when the maritime Silk Road trade was the most prosperous. The Portuguese did not discover the route from the Cape of Good Hope to India until the 15th and 16th centuries, so this period was the Arabs. control of intermediate trade.

As a result of the Mongol expeditions and the crusades, the Abbasid Empire, where Muhammad, the author of the book on the soul, was divided in the mid-13th century until the rise of the Ottoman Empire, which wiped out the Byzantine Empire in 1453 , occupied Constantinople, and then the European "front line" became Hungary and the Holy Roman Empire.

   During the reign of Suleiman the Great, the Ottoman Empire became stronger and stronger, and Suez became the military port and commercial port of the Ottoman Empire. During his rule, the Portuguese fleet raided Suez, and the Ottomans were forced to retreat because of the strong defenses.

  People thought that the Suez Canal could not be built because of the height difference between the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. Even if it was built, it would cost a lot of money. However, it was only after the construction was completed that it was known that there was no difference in height. The existence of height difference was a rumor. The French government even once regarded the surveyors as spies.

   This rumor also affected the sales of Suez Canal shares in the UK, anyway she heard that there were hardly any British among the earliest financiers.

  The British gold coin is called the guinea, which is named after Guinea, where the gold was produced, and Guinea is located on the west coast of West Africa.

  Georgianna heard that there is no shortage of people in the palace who take the initiative to show affection, but they will soon forget who you are after you lose power.

   There is also Napoleon's friend and secretary. He chose to resign in a fit of anger. When he was Napoleon's secretary, it was easy to borrow money. When he was no longer, he was sued.

   At the same time, she also heard a sentence, it is necessary to distinguish who is an ally and who is a friend.

   Friends who are willing to help you regardless of rewards and risks in student days are rare. As an adult, you must learn to identify the thoughts behind those seemingly friendly faces.

She remembered hearing about a time when Napoleon's sister Pauline attended a banquet. She dressed up as a priestess of the goddess of wine, and she was so glamorous that a certain lady dressed as the goddess of hunting was very unhappy, but she did not Swearing like everyone else, instead, took Paulina to a bright room where she lay down and complimented her from head to toe, until she realized that Paulina's ears weren't so perfect.

The lady exclaimed loudly at the banquet, "Polina has donkey ears, isn't it? It's so big that it's just right to cut it in half." Paulina cried when she couldn't bear it, and made an excuse to leave the stage.

  Georgianna said at the time that she would remember the lady's name, but she can't remember it now. If she wanted to ask Paulina, she would have to open her scar.

   Hufflepuff Code 84: Patience, then retaliate, but I believe you forgot by then.

  It may be because she is forgetful, so she has learned so many lessons, let her remember not to learn from the farmer and save the snakes in the ice and snow.

   It's actually fine, probably hibernating, not freezing to death, and when the farmer wakes it up with the heat of his chest, it bites him instead.

  It is natural for cats to chase mice, but dogs are called meddling with mice.

  When Grindelwald made troubles in Europe, Britain sent Aurors to hunt them down, but when Voldemort made troubles in Britain, who sent the International Union of Wizards to intervene?

  If Europe is really as chaotic as the crystal ball shows, and the world is coming to an end, Severus has also found the bunker left by the Germans during World War II. There are countless red wines in it, enough for her to be drunk.

   After all, the most important thing for people to live is to be happy.
