Chapter 2882 Lion of Liberty (4)
Chapter 2884 The Lion of Freedom (6)
After the Corn Laws were repealed, Britain began to shift to a free trade model. While requiring other countries to reduce tariffs on raw materials and industrial products, it also abolished its own trade protection.
In 1848, a news article was published in The Times, which basically stated that the Chartists attempted to take part in marches and rallies with arms, and that in order to protect the safety of the royal family, they had been evacuated from London.
The prison in the city was garrisoned by the army, the chapel was converted into a military barracks, dock workers and post office employees were recruited as special police, and two thousand sets of weapons were distributed to them. Employees in other public places were also equipped with the same equipment, and mounted police were equipped with sabers and sabers.
Armed with pistols, the water police closely monitor passing merchant ships so that they can transform into transport ships at any time.
The World Expo is about to be held in Hyde Park, and the Crystal Palace is under construction in full swing. There are so many topics to talk about, why would you choose the most disappointing one?
A woman in the Victorian era had to learn to faint. For example, when two gentlemen were about to have a heated conflict over a certain topic, she would inevitably need to be treated with smelling salts (sal ammoniac) if she fainted. If she was interrupted in this way, the topic would also be diverted.
opened.
Many people know the story of the Sword of Damocles, and there are even many works of art telling the story, but no one really wants to have a sword hanging over their head.
Rather than being a sword, mothers would tell their daughters what to do to get married as soon as possible. Marriage and having children were the signs of women's adulthood in that era.
At the same time, there will be such a situation, because the cotton textile factories want female workers, but it is not easy for men to find jobs, so women are in charge of the family. This is not surprising, the whole of Britain is ruled by the Queen, although the husband has the election
power, but it was up to the wives to decide who to vote for, and they began to appear at various gatherings and listen to the speakers from the pulpit.
As September entered, the weather became less hot, so Pomona put the lace nightdress away in the cabinet.
When the cabinet door closed, she looked at her fat reflection on the paint surface of the cabinet. If she wore a lace nightgown with her current figure, she would look like a fish caught in a net. Liz Stewart mailed to
Her "fishnet" actually fit well. But she went to find Molly to make it smaller, and even then she couldn't fit it in at all.
She closed her eyes and leaned her head against the door, recalling her adolescence. While other girls were busy dating, Pomona stayed in the library all day, competing for seats with a group of Ravenclaws.
.She couldn’t play with those in the same grade, so she found someone in the lower grades to play with.
She knew about the grievances between Severus and the hijackers, but she never tried to mediate. Instead, she created a dual identity and seemed to play well with each of them.
At least Lily was not like Pomona. She always stayed with Severus openly and didn't care about the opinions around them.
Now "Sif" is different from before. He will not take out his wand and point it at the opponent early, but will hold it with his hands down and be on guard until the other party takes action first.
The arrow is the same as "Expelliarmus", the attack trajectory is a straight line, but if he is hit by the arrow, he will not just let the wand fly away, he will be injured and bleed, this is what Dolan warned him.
So he had to wait for the opponent to take action. Even the fastest archer would need time to reload after shooting an arrow. At this time, as long as he blocked the arrow with his armor, he would have another chance to take action.
He does not need to create a "golden bell", he only needs to defend a specific area, which is a bit like playing badminton. He also specially designed a dummy to practice with him. As long as he exerts enough force, the trajectory of the badminton will not be light.
Instead of a parabola, it "kills the ball" in a straight line.
Bai Xian can quickly heal the wounds of arrows, and Dolan does not really want his life. He always aims the arrows at vital points such as the heart. After Ronan joins, he will be in the confrontation between "Sif" and Dolan.
When waiting for an opportunity to strike, sometimes it is unwise to use armor for protection. He must learn to dodge.
The showdown between a centaur and a human wizard is not without a chance of winning. Although the wizard feels that the centaur's arrows cannot hurt him at all. However, the centaur will avoid the wizard's spell. As long as he escapes, he can rush forward until he reaches the wizard's spell.
In front of him, he kicked the wizard unconscious with his raised horse's hooves.
Most human spells require "aiming", but the invisible magic blade invented by Snape does not. It will automatically aim at the target to attack, and usually will not miss. When he hurt Ronan for the first time, Ronan
He actually laughed, because Ronan only suffered a small scratch, Snape had a horse hoof mark on his face, and countless injuries on his body, which were covered by the school robe.
Later, two more centaurs joined, but just avoiding them was no longer enough. He began to try short-distance apparation. Sometimes he would suddenly appear behind the "teachers". The centaurs would no longer hold back when they fired arrows.
It seems that it is no longer a problem for him to be against many.
But werewolves are another story.
Lily did not look at James differently because of this. In a book about Machiavelli's The Prince, Pomona saw the author mention "what is the attachment of desire and what is independent personality". He was talking about the virtues of citizens.
Instead of "big things" like corruption, Pomona considers "little things."
There are many places in life where money is needed. Even if it is not to buy the things you want, to make yourself comfortable, or to see a doctor, you will need to spend money. By that time, everyone will know how important money is.
Mary is only 16 years old. Life, old age, illness and death are too far for her, not to mention Sirius Black is her goal. Her evaluation of Severus and James is relatively fair. If Lily wants to stay in the magical world, then choose
James, who has a certain foundation, is more practical than Sif, who has nothing.
According to Malthus, poor and prolific families like the Weasleys should be eliminated, but the Weasleys are very sympathetic to Muggles, and even Arthur is compiling a "Muggle Protection Act" to protect
In his eyes, Muggles are always "bullied" by wizards.
Many pure-blood families were once rich, but fell into poverty due to various reasons. Of course, they would not listen to Malthus' advice to kill themselves and reduce the number of poor people.
Mary was almost turned into a frog by Mulbourne and the others, croaking in the water. The Death Eaters outside were killing Muggles, and the corpses would be eaten by werewolves. If there was no corpse, it would only be considered missing. Everywhere in the 1970s
It's all so chaotic, and the police don't have that much energy to investigate missing persons.
A "good dog" would know table manners and clean up the blood on the floor, but Pomona has seen a lot of intentionally messy scenes.
Bloodthirsty is not a good word, but if you choose a "Daisy Ball", Slytherin will find it disgusting, and they will not accept it even if the Headmaster supports it.
Maybe the prom is just a prom, and there is no need to add extraneous things to it. If you don’t mention it, others won’t think so much about it.
It's fun not to think so much. If the atmosphere of a dance is the same as that of a funeral, who would want to attend it?
In every fun-seeking occasion, there will always be the "clown" who is laughed at. You just need to try your best not to be at the "bottom of the food chain" and become the object of ridicule.
The clown was originally a comedian, but no one listened to his jokes, so he had to change to an "artistic form of expression". He no longer tried to please the audience.
'Am I doing the right thing?'
In the new world after the Joker's rebirth, he doesn't need to think about right or wrong, and is happy without thinking so much. He can do whatever he "wants" to do. He doesn't even need to wait for the Bat-Light to turn on like Batman does.
It was like a "green light" that allowed Batman to drive his supercar, ignore traffic rules, and run red lights at busy intersections "in order to save the world."
It's enough trouble to clean up one mess, but how can Gotham's police survive if there's another?
"We don't need Batman." The Joker will say to his followers. "It will be exciting in a while, trust me!"
So how will the audience react?
This is not the clown's problem, he only needs to laugh at the world, even if his laughter is crazy and harsh, making normal people feel irritated and think he is a madman.
"Why are you so serious? It's just a joke."
The clown said with a playful smile and danced funny. The "background" behind him was the blazing city.
As for the problem of rebuilding after burning, it is not the clown's consideration. He just comes to find happiness. As for the endless regret after short-term happiness... regret will bring melancholy, and he is not the kind of clown with a crying face.
Pomona turned back and looked at the puppet on the desk.
"Why are you here, Paul?" Pomona asked.
"They were bored, and I wanted to find something interesting to do." Paul said.
"So you came to see me?" Pomona asked.
"How about a dance with me?" Paul said.
"I can't dance ballet." Pomona pointed to the flesh on her body and said, "I'm too fat."
"Oh, I don't want to do ballet either. How about a waltz?" Paul said.
Pomona considered.
"Do you only dance with girls?" Pomona asked.
"What else do you want to do?" Paul asked.
"You came to play with me." Pomona said, "Don't be so boring."
Paul laughed.
"You're funny!" Paul praised.
Pomona shook his head, "Please come up with an interesting gameplay that is attractive enough for me, otherwise I will find someone else to play."
Then she sat down on the chair opposite Paul and let him think slowly.
