Harry Potter’s Morning Light
Chapter 1421: Catastrophe and gradual change
Chapter 1421 Cataclysm and Gradation
There is always such a person in the world who is good at inventing and creating but not good at marketing. For this reason, they have to find some people like Stanley to help sell their own products, Georgian’s hometown, and Andrew, a mechanic at the Houston Mill in Scotland. Mikel is one of them.
The thresher he designed can beat eight quarter ton of oats per hour with four horses and four people. His machine uses a beating mode instead of rubbing millet. This kind of machine can not only use animal power, but also water power. Unfortunately, George Washington only bought one and did not introduce it to the United States in batches, let alone make Mikel rich.
It feels like a dream when the opportunity falls on me, which is not true at all.
However, even if he is a genius, he needs someone who appreciates him in order to truly show his talent.
For Georgiana, it’s easy to recommend that lighthouse. The Alexandria lighthouse in Egypt not only built high ground, but also built a large area, in order to ignite a large enough fire to light the passing ships at night. People hadn't thought about the refraction of light and the lens. Napoleon liked this "oriental" and "old" thing.
She annoyed whether the young man would really use the money for invention and research after receiving the funding, but instead used the money she gave to squander it.
There are more than 50,000 gems in Napoleon’s private vault. Giorgioanna has seen it. The pile of gems looks like a pile of glass beads. She thinks it is a good deal to trade a gem for a talent.
But people are always changing. The former actress of the opera was out of reach in the eyes of the poor Corsican artillery lieutenant. Later, he became the commander-in-chief of Italy and found that it was easy to get Grassini's with a few gems." Love", did he realize that he could no longer wear the dress made in 1797?
No matter how touching love words and poems are, his true feelings are not as moving as Georgiana, although it is not herself who moved him, but Josephine, the woman who was good to him and hurt him deeply.
At Hogwarts, if you ask for help, you will always get a response.
But this is not Hogwarts. Although Algon applied for a patent for the lighthouse light, he did not profit from it, especially the Americans who used his design without paying for it.
Compared with grains, cotton has a higher value. According to Stanley, the sales of cotton gins are much better than threshers, and the impact on the economy and society is much greater. However, Mr. Whitney, the inventor who applied for a patent He did not receive any money, and he went bankrupt in 1797.
Many scholars are not good at making money. In Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s era, there were still music scores to copy. Now that there is a score printing machine, it is even more difficult for poor students to survive, but it is often these people who change the world.
Napoleon was also embarrassed to the point where tickets for the Opera House were almost too expensive. It was a social occasion. After the release of "The Origin of Human Inequality", the upper class used the privilege of canceling Rousseau's free admission to kick him out of the social circle, thinking that he would be driven out of the social circle. Get out of your sight, and the world will be clean.
Condose was also an outstanding figure in the Enlightenment. He advocated equality and was a relatively moderate Girondist. Such outstanding figures died in the terrorism of the Jacobins.
This is a chaotic world, and Mrs. Dubali thought that the knife of the guillotine would not fall if she shouted "wait a minute". Mrs. Dubari also sponsored some artists. They did not, like Talien, immediately launched a coup to save her life after receiving the note from Teresa. So Georgian must be more cautious when investing in talent. Maybe these "chicken thief" raised by her will help her at a critical moment.
What she did just now was a bit rash, but she didn't think it mattered. Her money was in the Bonaparte Bank, which was managed by a special accountant. Withdrawing by cheque, she still had more than 2 million francs, one for Fresnel. How much can people use? What's more, the bank accountant would contact her or Napolioni if he used too much.
After the incident just now, she also remembered that preparations for the second French industrial exhibition should also start, and she should find something she can get to participate in.
France was devastated after the Civil War. The north was better, and the south didn’t even have a thresher. This time it was too late to use the thresher for agricultural promotion. Fortunately, Stanley brought the model and drawings. Georgian asked the students of the Institute of Technology to immediately To imitate, first let the farmers understand that there is such a thing, and then they will discuss the issue of whether it is used or not.
In addition to the thresher, Stanley also brought a model of the Yanggu machine. For thousands of years, humans have completely relied on wind to separate grain and chaff. It was mentioned in the Bible that Scottish farmer Andrew Roger came up with this device.
But some religious people believe that the wind is the power of the gods, and that it is a sin for humans to use the wind. France has never heard of the need for a priest to spread holy water to peasants to grow potatoes. What about using a rice-raising machine?
As a result, a student from the countryside told her that he had seen Yangguji, but it was not produced by Andrew Roger in Scotland, but promoted by the Jesuits. The Jesuits were still there, and to go back to the time of Louis XV, the Yanggu machine had long become an "antique".
Stanley just wanted to put the Yanggu machine away, and Georgian immediately asked if anyone had seen this machine before? Most people said no, so she asked Stanley to put the model back on the table.
In the technical school, she found the feeling of being a dean again, and the more important thing is that there is no education order to restrain her, and she can finally not have to bear them.
After the "enslavement" of these students was over, Georgiana took them to Mrs. Talien's "inn" to have a delicious meal, and they were so easily bought by her.
They still have classes in the afternoon, and Giorgioanna let them go back to school. Brognard’s next arrangement is to go to the Botanical Garden in Paris, this time Mrs. Tarian will also follow.
Broniar’s friend used to work in the Paris Botanical Garden. His former colleague told him that a new batch of roses had arrived from the Netherlands.
Georgiana was not interested in roses at first, but Broniar mentioned the names of two kinds of roses, which made her look forward to this visit.
One of these two kinds of roses is called Sultan Meifei (labellesultane) and the other is Cecilia.
"The Sultan's Concubine" also has a name, Maheka (maheka), which happens to be the same name as Josephine's cousin. Legend has it that she was captured by pirates on the way from France to her hometown of Martinique in the Caribbean, and then she became the princess of Turkey.
This kind of rose is very bright red, the stamen is yellow, and it is as graceful and luxurious as the sultan princess. The other rose Cecilia has a pink center, and the flower edge gradually turns white. It belongs to the Damascus rose system. Introduced by French horticulturist Sayles.
"What secret do you know?" Teresa said in Georgian's ear while Brognard was in contact with the staff of the Botanical Garden.
Georgiana thought for a while, and finally said "jerk" with a smile, and then stopped talking.
"Tell me." Teresa asked Georgiana by the arm.
"Do you think the Turkish pirate ships will go to the Caribbean?" Georgiana asked.
Mrs. Talyan, like most women, knows zero knowledge of geography. She was dazed to wonder, God knows if her little head is really thinking.
"Hahaha, why do you think it is impossible?"
They heard a man’s laughter, so they turned around and looked over and found that it was a handsome man with very charming eyes, and he looked very gentle.
"Who are you?" Georgiana asked the daredevil.
"Guess it……"
"Cuvier!" Before the daredevil was finished, Bronniar yelled, "You are finally here!"
Broniar hurried over. "This is my friend, George Cuvier. He is the professor emeritus of the Paris Botanical Garden."
"Do you still like the roses given to you by the first ruling last time?" Cuvier looked at Georgiana and said.
"What is the name of that rose?" Georgiana asked.
"Clauris, is derived from the name of the goddess of spring in Botticelli's works." Cuvey smiled and said, "That variety of roses was originally pink, but a white one was opened on the day the first governor came to visit. "
"That's how he picked it?" Georgiana said with a pity, maybe that flower could cultivate a new variety.
"Do you like it?" Cuvier asked.
She did not answer.
"Poor God of the West Wind." Cuvier said pityingly, "He gave his heart to Cloris, what is she going to give him back?"
