Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 781 "Friendship forever"

  Once there was such a choice, there were ten children, and they arranged to go to the railway to play. Nine children chose to go to the new railroad track, thinking that it was exciting. A single child stayed on the old railroad track. At this time, the train came and the driver had no time to brake. He could only choose between crushing one child and nine children.

If Pomona chooses, she will choose to run over the nine children to walk on the new rails, because she is not the only one on the train, but there are hundreds of passengers. She will not risk the derailment of the train and walk on the old track. Of railroad tracks.

  She likes children very much, but sometimes children will make wrong choices. The reason why social animals live in groups depends on their numbers to win.

The    ethnic group will give the cubs a certain amount of protection, but they will not protect everything. It is the dead end of the nine children, which is the same as the Muggles pulling the sleeping dragon's eyelids.

Similarly, Marcandobeo Justinian has to face this choice, whether to sacrifice the interests of a country in Venice to allow the Holy See to continue to exist, or to let Rome go bankrupt due to financial problems, and eventually lead to credit bankruptcy, and Europe no longer There is Christianity.

Just as the emperor wanted to unify Rome, the pope wanted to unite Europe and jointly deal with the threat posed by the Ottoman Empire to the Mediterranean. Before Innocent XI came to the throne, Pope Clement X sat on the throne. Although he is 80 years old, he is still very ambitious, trying to frustrate the aggressive arrogance of French Louis XIV.

  Louis XIV continued to expand the royal power, strengthen the control of the church, and ignore the Holy See. The imperial decree was issued in 1673, announcing that the king would appoint bishops to fill the vacancies and tax the newly appointed diocese. Clement X made a statement and angrily refuted it. But after the Black Death, the situation of the Holy See is not what it used to be, and the King of France does not take his opinion as a matter of all.

  Clemence X rectified the finances of the Holy See, increased revenue, and tightened expenditures. However, he allocated a huge sum of money to aid the Polish king Jan Sobieski to fight the Ottoman Empire. In 1683, the Polish Winged Cavalry was like an "angel" at the battle of Vienna in 1683 at a critical moment of victory or defeat. Equipment and Clemant The gift of the tenth pope has a lot to do with it.

Before Marcandino Justinian, there were three governors during Clement X’s accession to the throne in 1670, Alberto Contarini, Nicolas Sagredo, and Dominico II. Contarini.

  Venice’s army has always been unable to do so, while the navy has adopted a mercenary system. Poland’s inland location is beyond the reach of the Venetian Navy. Under the Pope’s call, spending money on the Polish cavalry is what a devout religious should do.

  When the Ottoman Empire focuses on land warfare, theoretically the navy should relax, but the fact is not as they thought, the Ottoman Empire’s navy is still strong.

  Venice appropriated naval armaments to support the army. This is a more rational choice. The problem is that the people of the Holy See are not like that.

  Compared with the Protestants, the Catholic Church is much more gorgeous and spends more money. This is where the two popes cut expenses and rectified their finances.

Extravagant consumption and spending money, no matter how many sources you have, you have to sit and eat. The Roman copper watch law listed wasteful people as incapacitated people, just like mental patients. In the 17th century, Venice was no longer a maritime empire that used to be a goldsmith. .

  It's hard to find information about Marcandino Justinian in this public library, but there is one love story about Alvese Contalini.

Arisandro Stradella is a famous Italian composer. Although he is not as well known by ordinary people as the devil's tremolo, he writes mainly religious festival songs and uses the orchestra of the Grand Concerto to accompany the arias, replacing the previous ones. The organ is a representative of Baroque music, and he has composed music for the Queen of Sweden, and is a representative of chamber music.

  He did his best to offend big people, embezzling church funds in Rome, and befriended big people’s wives and mistresses in Venice.

  So it’s not surprising that he occasionally received death threats.

Later, he served as the music teacher of Alvese Contarini’s mistress, Agnes, and the two eventually ended in an elopement. At that time, the governor sent an assassin to assassinate Ari Sandro Stradella, who was beheaded Marino after all. The example of is there, but Stradella managed to escape.

  They fled to Genoa, and the two of them lived in peace for a while. In the end, Stradella was assassinated. The famous Italian Lomerini family hired the killers, but it is unknown who the killers were.

  Compared with the merchants and free cities at the time, European monarchs and princes had poor creditworthiness. The premature death of the monarch, military failures, and unexpected disasters will cause the lenders to lose their money. If the royal family maliciously breaches the contract, the lender has no right to request a court trial; they can't even pursue the prince’s successor. The only sanction for lenders is not to grant loans in the future. Therefore, the royal family's borrowing rate was extremely high at that time, especially when there was not enough mortgage.

The domino effect brought about by the bankruptcy of the Baldi and Peruzi families kept the entire European economy stagnant for 100 years. In the mid-15th century, the Medici family bet on both sides in the War of the Roses that broke out in the battle for the British throne. Bad debts.

  From the end of the fifteenth century to the first half of the sixteenth century, the Fugger family in South Germany seized the dominant position that the Italian bankers once had. From the beginning of the loan to the Habsburg royal family, the Fugger family, which started in the textile industry, obtained the mining rights for a large number of silver, copper, and iron ore in Central Europe and the Americas. They can also engage in American trade and even have the right to currency casting. The family went to the two Holy Roman Emperors of the Habsburg family one after another. Their wealth reached its peak after the 1610s, and the political influence was no match.

  The Fugger family spent 850,000 Gurden to bribe the elector to ensure that Charles V of Habsburg could defeat the candidate King of France and become emperor. The Spanish empire under Charles V became the greatest empire in Europe after the Roman Empire. However, after owing a debt of 20 million Ducats, Charles V passed the throne to his son Philip II, who succeeded Spain in the second year Declaring bankruptcy, the Fugger family accompany them to nothing.

  Fortunately, Fugger and other families also received other compensation: monopolizing Spanish military procurement and the mercury mine in Almaden. Fugger Bank did not go bankrupt due to debt default, but as a commercial bank suffered huge losses in capital and reputation.

  The period from 1557 to 1627 is called the "Era of Genoa". During this period, the Genoese bank families that controlled the European financial industry included the Spinola family, the Doria family, the Centurion family, the Grimalti family, and the Lomerini family.

  Among them, the Spinola family and the Doria family have played leading roles in Genoese politics since the 1370s, and they are also the core of the Genoese system that financed the Spanish royal family.

History has taught these loan sharks a lesson, never lend money to someone stronger and thick-skinned than you. Genoa has a tense relationship with Venice, but they still have interests. Those who are pro-Spanish royal family have pro-Venetian governor. Yes, Stradella thought that he would not have to worry about the Governor of Venice chasing him when he fled to Genoa, but he did not expect that the big men would "help each other out" privately, and hire a killer to kill a musician. For the Lomerini family Just a small effort.

  Bankers often have to face a problem. If the money borrowed is not returned, he will go bankrupt when he becomes a bad debt, and suddenly falls from the cloud to the bottom.

  So who to lend money to becomes a problem.

  I heard Newt Scamander said that he gave Jacob the eggshell of the bird and snake, and these "silver" became collateral, and then Jacob got a loan and opened his dream bakery.

  But it is not so easy for ordinary people to borrow. According to the Matthew effect, the strong, the strong, the famous, the status and the wealth, the probability of obtaining the loan is simpler than that of the assembly line workers like Jacobs.

  The former Ministry of Magic Sports Department Ludo Bagman is a big celebrity, and it is easy for him to find a goblin to borrow money. How can he be the director of the Sports Department?

  Facts have proved that Ludo will not only go wrong, but will also run away. He will also use Leprechaun’s gold coins to deceive the Weasley twins, and even dare to cheat the children’s money.

If Lockhart went to find a fairy loan, he would also easily borrow it. After all, everyone knew him, but if he glanced at the basilisk in the Slytherin secret room, he would die like Myrtle, and the fairy would have to bear it. Bad debts, people are dead, are they looking for his ghost to be accounted for?

  The magic of the soul is somewhat dark magic, and Voldemort’s Horcrux is one of them.

  Lightning hit the tower and detonated the armory, what a stupid Italian.

  This is known all over the world.

  Look at the Italian soldiers in World War II. They laughed so happily. It's true that Idali is Idali.

  So how did you check the weather on August 29, 1689?

  Maybe there is a record in someone’s diary. Many people will habitually write down the weather on the day of the diary. It’s just that the weather on the sea is changeable, and no one knows what the exact weather is like.

  This is a truth to the London Gas. History is a little girl who was dressed casually. After removing her make-up, be careful not to tear her human skin apart.

  Supermodels should be easier to borrow money than ordinary women, after all, they are very beautiful, no wonder it is so expensive to lose a pound of human flesh now.

  It’s just that those civilian girls who have entered that world have little chance to end well.

  Professional homicides have professional corpses. Werewolves like to eat human flesh, and disappearance cases will not be filed by the police.

   is like pigeons attracted by pigeons. They are basically eaten up when they enter this "circle" until no value is lost.

There is a monastery for girls suffering from syphilis on the island of Venice. Syphilis destroys brain tissue. As the disease progresses, mental abnormalities will increase, especially the decline of personality and reason. The main manifestation of cerebral syphilis is paralytic dementia. He was treated as a mental patient due to misdiagnosis.

   "Tsk." Pomona looked at the dirty diary and exclaimed.

I don’t know if the wealthy businessman’s son who wrote this diary was really crazy or was mentally disordered by syphilis. The scribbled handwriting is still all his romantic affairs with those noble ladies and mistresses. The fundamental measure to prevent brain syphilis is to clean himself and love himself. People like him don't live long.

   "What's the gain?" Severus asked.

   "The mass madness that occurred in Venice in the 18th century has nothing to do with the curse of the devil. The monks of San Servolo used electroshock therapy and the cross to treat the mental patients' illnesses are useless. What they need is penicillin."

  Can this kind of friendship with prostitutes last forever?

  Pomona burned the diary with blazing flames. This book was of no value at all, and it was still a poison. The priests and monks should indeed burn it.
