Chapter 1290 Indigo

According to French wedding customs, a newlywed couple usually needs to start preparing for the wedding 2 to 3 months in advance.

White wedding dresses only became popular after the First World War. Before the First World War, wedding dresses were blue. If your family really has no money to buy a blue wedding dress, you can use a blue handkerchief instead.

Georgiana now regrets disguising herself as a girl with pearl earrings. The girl in the painting is wearing a blue headscarf, as if it was an invitation: Hey, that boy looking at the painting, why don't you come and get me

What about marrying away?

According to the original plan, the gift bags distributed to the homeless contained a piece of chocolate and a piece of soap, but now the chocolate has become marzipan.

There is a legend in ancient Greece. A young Greek man suddenly received the news that his father was about to pass away before he was about to marry a beloved woman. He decided to go back to Athens to see his father for the last time. He promised the bride that he would come back before the wedding, but

His estimate of the time was incorrect, and it was already three months later when he returned.

During these three months, the bride desperately thought that her man would never come back, so she hanged herself and ended her life. After God knew about this, he was moved by their love and turned the woman into a

Since then, marzipan has represented eternal love. Guests at the wedding use marzipan as souvenirs. Guests who cannot be present in person will also receive marzipan from the newlyweds as a testimony of the couple's relationship.

There are marzipan, soap and handkerchiefs in blue cloth bags. If you don't understand what they mean, then the soldier is hopeless.

National Day is July 14th, and construction of the Saint-Martin Canal will start in about mid-September or mid-October. It is up to the soldiers to decide whether to come or not to work.

This canal will pass through the Bastille Square and extend to the north of Paris, with a total length of more than 100 kilometers. It was built under the personal supervision of the first consul Napoleon Bonaparte. In addition to water supply, it will also be used to transport food and building materials.

For daily necessities such as coal and wine, Venetian-style buildings will be built on both sides of the canal.

There will be 9 sluices on the canal to control the water level. It will take a lot of manpower to complete this project, but veterans will be recruited first, and then workers from the public will be recruited. Those who bring the gift bag will be given special treatment.

The newly established Baggage Department was in charge of the distribution, and the first batch of 20,000 bags was quickly robbed. However, this frantic robbery did not cause chaos, it was more like a joke at a wedding, and everyone was filled with happiness and jubilation.

In this way, Pomona or Georgiana got married twice, while some girls never got married once.

This reminded her of Scarlett and Sue in "Gone with the Wind", the lines Sue said after Scarlett married Frank.

The Anti-French Alliance was established because European countries believed that France was a threat. Through the kidnapping of the papal envoy, the Corsican people framed her again, and the United States became the driving force behind the entire incident.

If the peace talks fail, who will be the biggest beneficiary? Neutral countries, they have made a lot of money from the hostile relationship between the Anti-French Alliance and France, but ordinary small countries do not dare to offend the British navy, so they stay away

In the New World, the United States became the biggest suspect.

Of course, the U.S. ambassador refused to admit this frame-up, but Russia, France, Britain, Turkey, Portugal, and Germany, who attended the peace talks in Rambouillet, had all acquiesced to this matter. President Jackson, who took over in Washington, was an impulsive person.

He is an excellent soldier, but not an excellent politician. He lacks the ability to stay clear-headed and calm in the face of various situations to get out of difficult situations.

Besides, the New World is so far away from Europe. By the time the president's instructions were sent to the American ambassador, the anti-American alliance had already discussed how to send troops.

France will definitely send troops to the colonies. It is up to the British allies whether they should take this opportunity to take back the colonies lost in the War of Independence. After the general direction is decided, the next thing will be easy to deal with. France did not declare war directly, but sent the Americas to

Tariffs on goods increased to sky-high prices. The original tax rate for American cotton was one franc per quintal. After the amnesty was promulgated, it was changed to 60 francs, and an additional 800 francs had to be paid. The tariff on indigo was increased from 15 francs to 900 francs, and the tariff on coffee was increased from 15 francs to 900 francs.

150 francs increased to 400 francs.

In addition to the United States, British cotton yarn also has India. If you don't buy American cotton, you can still buy cotton from India. Although the food harvest in the Baltic Sea failed, the sugar in the British Andales islands was not affected. However, due to the war, Andals

Sugar in Leeds could not be sold, and the price continued to fall. In the UK, due to its small population, there was still a problem of excess imports despite growing consumption. The price dropped from 55 shillings per quintal to 32 shillings.

The First Consul of France wanted to distribute sugar, and the original sugar ban was directly lifted. The French had cheap sugar to eat, and the British also made money. Everyone was happy. Russia did not start from the Western Hemisphere, but instead crossed the White Sea from the Eastern Hemisphere.

The Ling Strait can also reach North America. As for the Germans and Turks whether to go or not, Ambassador Caprara repeatedly stated that the church is not involved in secular conflicts.

The Purifiers are mercenaries from the United States, but they have no loyalty to the United States. If they were loyal, they would not be mercenaries.

Anyway, they were just watching the war between Muggles, and no one even thought about assassinating Napoleon.

Indigo is a blue-to-purple pigment that is commonly used by girls to dye wedding dresses.

Now that the tariff is so high, of course we can no longer use such expensive dyes to dye wedding dresses.

There are still stocks in the warehouses of various chambers of commerce, but Miss Georgiana chose white as the dress for the canal opening ceremony.

This color does not produce sewage, which is exactly the purpose of building the canal, but has nothing to do with the purity of the bride.

From here on, dreams have nothing to do with history.

The war is fought by men, and the American militia is definitely no match for the French army. It is as vulnerable as the Hungarian irregular light cavalry.

In this decadent era, Napoleon lit up the entire era like a burning meteorite.

Don’t American movies like to film comets hitting the earth? Let’s face the impact of meteorites this time.

In the east, further away than Egypt, there was a unified country. After Qin Shihuang completed the unification war, he was in power for a short time. In the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu came into being, which united the originally scattered people.

Since he wanted to be Charlemagne, then she could help him become Charlemagne, and even do a better job than Charlemagne.

Don't ask a woman's loyalty with patriotism. Family is the only force that can compete with the country.

Despite the huge pressure, the church's worship procession resumed, and the church bells began to ring again. She didn't hear the bells at her first wedding, and I hope she can hear them this time.

She was still wearing an imperial high-waisted skirt, but the groom had changed. This daydream seemed to be getting more and more absurd.

"Miss!"

Just when Georgiana was about to laugh out loud, Sophie ran into the suite at St. Luke's Palace in a panic.

This time it is still not the king's suite, but his lounge. Because his name is Napoleon, this suite is also called the Napoleon suite.

"What's wrong?"

"The First Consul asked you to come over. It's urgent!"

She didn't ask any questions and just followed Sophie out of the small living room.

When she came to Napoleon's study, she found that there were people standing outside, and they all moved out of the way when they saw her appearance.

Georgiana walked into the study and found that Napoleon's face was very ugly. His brows were furrowed tightly and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. He looked very scary.

"I'll give you a mission." He said in a cold voice.

"What happened?"

"A soldier named Cobain committed suicide. He was the second soldier to commit suicide because of love within a month."

She doesn't find it strange. There are many people in this world who play with other people's feelings.

She just lamented that 10 years passed so quickly, and the scars healed so quickly and they forgot to hurt, as if Marie Antoinette's death was not tragic enough.

"What's her name and where she lives?" asked Georgiana.

Napoleon said nothing.

"Don't worry, I won't hit her." She smiled and said, "Do you think I'm the kind of violent person?"

"Then how are you going to deal with her?" a second lieutenant asked.

"Go and do your work, and who of you can lead the way for me?"

"Me!" a lieutenant volunteered and shouted.

She looked around in the crowd again, and finally pointed to one person, "Just you, come with us."

"Me? Why?" the soldier asked inexplicably.

"Because you look scary enough." Georgiana said with a smile, "Find me two more military doctors, the ones who can vaccinate against pox."

No one else understood what was going on, but Monsignor Bonaparte burst out laughing.

"You go along, there will be a good show to watch." His Excellency Bonaparte said, "Follow her method from now on, and see who dares to bully you in the future."

"Yes!" the soldiers shouted in unison.

"Do the parents of the child know?" Georgiana asked.

"Leave it to me to deal with it over there. Just take good care of that woman." His Excellency Bonaparte said.

"You have to know, not all girls are so bad," Georgiana said.

"I know." He said calmly.

"Don't add more shackles to the law," she begged.

This time he didn't answer, and his secretary closed the study door.

Being surrounded by so many people must be a very beautiful thing for some people.

But she didn't feel that pleasure at all.

On the contrary, she felt very sad, but she still said nothing and left St. Luke's Palace with the group of soldiers who were eager for revenge.
