Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 485 DirtyLaundry

  The early British immigrants came from Siyi, Guangdong, China. In the mid-nineteenth century, Chinese seamen were sold to the United Kingdom. Liverpool was one of the most prosperous seaports in the world, so they all went ashore in the port. The Chinese seamen with a little savings opened laundry shops. Liverpool therefore has the oldest Chinese in Europe. After a century of vicissitudes and vicissitudes, Liverpool’s development has reached the sunset, and new immigrants have little interest in this poor city.

  The Chinese population in London is large, but their residences are scattered. Many of them are overseas employees and students, and they are quite mobile. Before World War II, there was a Chinatown in East London's dock area. The overseas Chinese were Chinese crew members just like those in Liverpool. They intermarried with British and Irish women and opened a laundry or restaurant to survive, but after the invention of the washing machine in the 1930s, the laundry was gradually eliminated.

After World War II, the ancient Chinatown in East London was tragically destroyed by the war. The local Chinese turned to the West for development. The West Chinatown was a prosperous golden zone. It was a poor rural area where it was not easy for villagers to make a living. In addition, the indigenous residents of Hong Kong automatically obtained the right of abode in the United Kingdom at that time and could freely enter and exit without applying for any visa. The farmers then took their savings to London to enter the world and became a new force in the Chinese food industry.

Illegal immigrants have to send money back to China and cannot go through banks. For those who study abroad, their foreign exchange quota is strictly limited to 50,000 U.S. dollars. This amount of money is simply not enough for overseas students to spend in the capitalist world, so underground money houses came into being. gave birth.

Ordinary Chinese people absolutely don’t know how their fellow villagers are spending money abroad. Before, the British had to work hard to transport money from China back to the UK, but now they don’t need this step at all. A box of US dollars in cash is thrown on the card table or in a luxury car store. The scene is exactly the same as the God of Gamblers in Hong Kong movies.

This has led to two industries, one is to "make points" for international students, because these students are stubborn, poor grades and too much money, there are intermediary companies "wrapped", and the other is to kidnap these rich Chinese young master.

Not every international student is so rich and not doing his job properly. There are also those who really want to learn something and go back to the library all day long. Unfortunately, because a small number of people, the Chinese are very rich and carry a lot of cash. The concept has been deeply rooted. Go to a nightclub for £2,000 a night without blinking your eyes.

These kidnappers are generally asking for money, and they will not tear the ticket when giving the money. However, there are special circumstances-sometimes they simply disappear and the body cannot be found. In this situation, no one can help. The police all over the world Do not pay much attention to disappearance cases, unless they are children of politicians, these people have bodyguards in and out, which are not easy to start, and they will cause a lot of trouble, and no one will take the initiative to contact.

  In the case of robbery, Bruce Lee’s approach was to kick it away. Tourists would not know what would happen if they encountered this situation. After all, not everyone has learned kung fu.

  The mental arithmetic ability of Europeans is not as strong as that of Chinese. Money laundering is not only the Hongmen. People in many countries are doing it, and the profits of that piece are also considerable.

  It’s just that you can’t do this like a bank. It must be done in private. Chinese restaurants, karaoke halls, Chinese pharmacies, hairdressers, any seemingly serious shops may be involved in this business.

Every time I saw Chinese medicine giving people acupuncture, Pomona felt like he was using witchcraft. "Qi" is as unrecognizable as magic, but you can feel it. It is said to be along the "meridians" and "acupoints". "run.

  There is also moxibustion that does not use silver needles to pierce the skin. The burning smell of wormwood is unpleasant, but it is good for curing diseases.

In the strong bitter taste of Chinese medicine, she slowly opened her eyes. At this moment, she was not in London's Chinatown, but in a luxury apartment. The bitter herbal scent was Severus. general.

  London’s sky is always gloomy, even the top floor is not very light. He is half shrouded in light and half hidden in the dark, holding a glass of whiskey in his hand. The orange liquid is the only color on his body.

   "Did you go to Chinatown?"

   "Otherwise, where else?" He said with a smirk.

   "Did you see Ma Yurong gone?"

   "He is not an easy person to see. He asked me to wait outside for an hour." He cursed badly and took a sip of wine.

   "He has been waiting for you at Ivan's house for a long time, and you are even." Pomona admired Valentina a bit. What did a little girl say to help the big man "Did you see him last?"

   "A kid was kidnapped, and his parents in the country asked him for help."

   "So you didn't see him?"

  Severus smiled coldly and shook the glass so that the ice in the glass hit the glass wall.

  "Have you read Sun Tzu's Art of War? The three armies can take the breath, the general can take the heart, don’t fall into his scheming.

   "The werewolf will not come in two or three days. I can spend it with him."

  "Have you ever thought that Chinatown may not be London Chinatown, but Liverpool Chinatown. There will also be celebrations on Lantern Festival."

   "We are limited in manpower, so we can't divide our forces."

"But you can spread false information, combine the false and the real, and confuse the opponent, and most people will Apparate, and there is no problem of dispersal of forces." She paused, "You are dealing with werewolves, not horses. Don't make the same mistakes as Voldemort."

   "Have you ever heard of God's Concealment?" Severus asked suddenly.

   "I have heard that it is a Japanese legend."

"Last week, another Muggle who got off the subway at the wrong station disappeared, and the word Shenyin doesn't come from Japan, it's China. That's what he told me." Severus said slowly, "God." There are four types of hidden results. One is that the process is still remembered after returning safely, the other is that the process is forgotten after returning safely, the third is that the body is found, and the fourth is that there is no news and life or death is unknown. Which one do you think will be this time? ?"

  "Is it true or legend?" Pomona asked, "There are many urban legends on the London Underground, which are not necessarily true."

"It was Marcus who told me that people living in the underground have been telling about it recently. A tramp walked to a place like heaven. He lived happily there and hardly wanted to go back. I asked Ma Yujiao today. , His expression is very funny." He curled his mouth and said like aftertaste, "He seems to know something."

  "Will it be what it says in The Story of Peach Blossom Spring?" She said whimsically, "I approached a cave, and then I went to another world."

   "Are you trying to talk about chaos in time and space?"

   "I don't know, he didn't disappear, he came back again. This is not because of the disappearance caused by time travel." She bit her nails and fell into thought.

   "Do you want to live in the world of Peach Blossom Spring?" Severus asked.

   "No." Pomona answered without hesitation, "That place is the Garden of Eden created by God. To live in it, you must abide by the rules inside. I don't want to be a pet of God."

   "You don't want to live in seclusion anymore?"

"When things are over here, where are you going and where do I go." She stood up, walked over to him and sat down, leaning on his shoulder. "Hermione asked me if the person who assassinated Arthur had anything to do with Slytherin. I said I don’t know, anyway, no one I know."

  "Do you envy the life of the Weasley family?"

   "It's okay to be as plain as them." She said listlessly, "Who made me a woman."

  "Do you think Arthur is still interested in Molly?" he asked suddenly.

   "He loves her." Pomona said jealously, "whatever she looks like."

   "Me too." He leaned in and kissed her lips, then slowly pushed her onto the sofa.

  In a city that lacks sunlight like London, clothes must be ironed before they can be completely dried. It is actually a red copper burn. The difference is that it is placed on the clothes, not on the skin.

  In fact, Wang Mang is not that bad, but it is really strange, how could she suddenly think of him.
