Chapter 895 Romance Scam
In 1630, when the Black Death broke out again in Venice, Venetian women, whether poor or rich, prayed to the Virgin Mary, hoping that she could save the city, while the men sent the sick to the
Poveglia Island.
Nosebleeds are a precursor to death. Men and women first develop nameless lumps on their inner thighs and armpits, some as big as apples and eggs. The lumps spread from these two places to the whole body, and then black spots appear, especially on the arms and thighs.
It was so densely packed; almost everyone who showed symptoms would die within three days, and those who were lucky enough to be alive gathered in safe houses, locked themselves up, and lived cautiously.
Prayer is when humans hope to use supernatural power to achieve their goals, and it can also be regarded as the last refuge.
Wherever there are miracles, there is religion, and there are temples, churches and other places of worship. This has been a custom of mankind for thousands of years.
Whether the plague disappeared due to the prayers of women or the commitment of the elders, building a church for Mary was borrowed from the power of miracles. People who maintain a sense of awe tend not to be arrogant or conceited, nor do they carry the burden of a church on their backs.
Wings made of wax to challenge the sun.
Poveglia Island and Sentosa Island, formerly known as Juehou Island, are small islands that locals will not go to. In order to purify the dark power on the island, the Italian government also specially sent people to the island to plant blackberries for the future and the Saint
Taosha Island is also preparing for asset sales.
Buyers in Singapore are lucky. So far, they have not heard that Sentosa Island is haunted. Strange things happen frequently on Povelia Island. Local workers will not go there no matter how short of money they are. Only outsiders who don’t know the basics will do it.
Go to construction.
Every country has a dark and oppressive history. Before immigration began, the masters of North America were Indians. They had many tribes, and there were wars among them. They also worshiped different totems. There was a place called Silent Hill, which
It was originally a religious sacred place for Indians and the habitat of the Silent Spirits. Early British colonists also settled here in the early 17th century.
But in the 19th century, smallpox became prevalent. At that time, the British had begun mandatory vaccination to curb the spread of smallpox. Indians who were not immune to smallpox died in large numbers, but nothing happened to the British.
The British used Silent Hill as an overseas penal colony and opened prisons and hospitals here. Later, the prison was closed and Silent Hill was abandoned again. In the 1850s, another group of pioneers discovered coal reserves in Silent Hill, and Silent Hill was once again abandoned.
prosper.
During the Civil War, this place was used as a prisoner of war camp, during which large-scale massacres of prisoners of war occurred. After the Civil War, the prisoner of war camp was closed, and Silent Hill began to become a tourist attraction.
There is Toluca Lake near the town. The lake is full of water vapor. It is wrapped in thick fog all year round. Although there have been supernatural events such as the mysterious disappearance of yachts, it is considered an unlucky lake, but as long as you don’t go
By the lake, it is still a very peaceful place.
Manhattan-based Ackerman Real Estate Developers plans to build Silent Hill into a resort and health resort. It will have conference facilities, shopping malls, a golf course, a nursing home, a spa, two separate hospitals, as well as other shops and tours.
Attractions.
According to the regulations of the EB-5 investment project, foreigners who invest more than 500,000 yuan in the project can obtain a green card through the investment immigration program. It is a convenient way to apply for residency. Such a good thing has attracted many foreign investors who want to immigrate to the United States.
Everyone is excited.
In the end, as many as 199 foreign investors provided funds for Silent Hill, and the amount alone was close to 100 million yuan. In addition, each investor had to pay an additional 40,000 yuan in management fees, so the amount involved exceeded 100 million yuan.
According to the publicity of this project at the time, it was a very promising project, and investors would return all their 500,000 investment in five years.
But unexpectedly, these investors not only failed to get their green cards, but they may not be able to recover their 500,000 capital.
The best-selling product is not the best, but the most successful marketing.
Although Silent Hill Resort was repaired as expected, it still had few guests, let alone profits.
The resort project was very popular at that time, and Silent Hill had many competitors. Plus Silent Hill's reputation, wouldn't a seaside resort with a beach look good?
It is useless to launch a lawsuit. This project is a private placement, which can exempt it from the registration process with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Ackman's fraud was orchestrated from the outset by exploiting a contractual loophole that prevented foreign investors from canceling their loans and getting their money back.
Although bank loans are convenient, there is no quick cash flow, not to mention that many investors have chosen to swallow their anger. Only 78 of the 199 investors chose to join the lawsuit, and the remaining 121 properties were bought for US$500,000.
Green card.
Everyone hopes to be a respected person, but it does not necessarily mean that if you respect others, others will respect you.
American culture advocates wolf nature. We cannot gain respect through prayer and supplication like believers. We must do everything possible to become a "winner."
"Losers" will not be pitied, but onlookers will laugh at them, step on them, and rub salt on the wounds. Nicholas, who sells costumes and was driven back to his hometown by a fashion magazine, once said that he saw someone
The homeless man's shoes were stolen. The homeless man's shoes are not valuable. The problem is that he has no shoes. On the streets of the Big Apple full of broken glass, he can easily bleed and get injured. Some people are so bored and like to have fun like this.
But Pomona has also met good Americans, like Julian Locke, who explains volcanoes to children in the British Museum, Yuki Nakamura, who is anti-sugar, and Scamander's wife, Tina.
There are good people and bad people in every country. If investors were willing to take the time to compare more projects, maybe their fate would be different.
Someone once said that when public opinion in the United States changed from print dominance to television dominance, it was entering an era of entertainment to death.
What was once rational, orderly, and logical has gradually become decontextualized, superficial, and fragmented. All public discourse appears in an entertaining way. It is like a paper shredder, breaking other people's culture into pieces and then splicing them into a specious
, a very "interesting" looking Frankenstein.
When Pomona and the others found the two doctors who were treating the young man who just went to explore the Island of Death, they were drinking coffee and telling jokes.
This is a hospital built with donations from the church. The TV in the corridor is showing images of John Paul II praying. He is really, really old, with a stooped back and looks like a question mark.
In 1939, the German army occupied Poland. The German army closed all universities and all students were forced to end their studies. During the occupation period, all men were required to do labor work and all higher education was prohibited. John Paul II once
Worked in quarries and chemical plants.
Maybe it was because of that experience that his health was so bad.
Pomona adjusted her gaze back to the two Muggle doctors.
When she changed her gaze, the TV screen flickered for a moment, as if the signal was poor, but it soon returned to normal.
The world will always confuse you in the way you like.
People living in the Apollonian world are enveloped in the halo effect, and their eyes are dazzled by the colorful lights.
In addition to the recently popular prediction about the end of the world in 2012, there is another Mayan legend.
There is a group of people, although they are called warriors, they have inherited the spirit of their ancestors, have the brilliance of wisdom in their minds, and the power of compassion in their hearts, and they will not harm any life.
Together with their many light-skinned brothers and sisters, they began to work hard to change the earth. Under the banner of the rainbow, people of all races and all faiths would unite to spread the idea that humans should live in harmony with nature.
Legend has it that these rainbow warriors finally stopped the destruction and disintegration of the earth through fierce non-violent struggle. Peace and prosperity ruled the world for a long time, and the golden age of joy and peace finally came to the world.
Rainbow warriors are much cooler than zombies, although holding a rainbow flag reminds people of gays.
