Chapter 2046 Watchtower IV

Chapter 2048 "Watch Tower" (6)

For postcolonialists, those who live on the margins are called "the other", just like there is a blood relationship between a man and his parents and children in a family, and they constitute the family. The woman who marries into this family is the "other" related to this family.

The "other" in Mary's book refers to Ireland. Although it merged into the United Kingdom of Great Britain, it is actually constantly being squeezed because of its status as the "other". Some Irish people who long for a better life will When they go to work in England, they are almost always engaged in low-end labor.

While Malthus was writing about surplus labor in The Times, Erasmus Darwin expressed his views in The Temple of Nature:

Shouting around the world, how life can continue to grow,

Death is conquered, happiness is survived;

Human beings occupy the earth step by step, and the young and rejuvenated nature conquers time.

The purpose of Darwin's writing was to express the struggle of life. He also believed that the world of war is a great slaughterhouse, which is an inevitable price of development. This theory also applies to the fiercely competitive world of trade.

It's no wonder that his grandson Darwin could write a book like "The Theory of Evolution". Natural selection, survival of the fittest, organisms compete with each other, and organisms that can adapt to nature will be left behind. However, not the most powerful species will The "fit" ones are the ones who survive.

When the environment changes, organisms that have adapted to the previous environment will inevitably continue to change, otherwise they will be eliminated because they cannot adapt to the new environment.

People who can adapt to the battlefield may not be able to adapt to peace, and people who can adapt to peace may not be able to adapt to the battlefield. These two environments are not created by nature, but are caused by humans.

Napoleon was not very good at defense, or he was the kind of person who believed that the best defense is offense.

This is difficult to understand, and it is even harder for others to understand it when it manifests in behavior.

If he hadn't told her, Georgiana wouldn't have known that he was actually in the "Mantua state", which was the closest to death in his life and the most difficult moment of the war, as if he was stuck in a quagmire and it was difficult to get out of it.

He needs help, even a prophet who he thinks is ridiculous, as long as he can give him clear guidance.

However, Georgiana didn't seem to be that reliable, and then his smart head came up with a reasoning that she could never imagine - Xue Yue's murder was a conspiracy. If he was not killed, Georgiana could also be sent to him. .

She really smelled the smell of death, once he was really cruel, or when he decided that he no longer needed love.

Voldemort is such a person. He believes that there is no love between people, only a relationship of use and profit.

If Voldemort was born without feeling loved, then Napoleon was born without feeling loved. His mother Letizia loved him very much.

Human behavior has two motivations, one is selfish instinct and the other is social instinct.

A certain poor guy is becoming more and more miserable in the conflict between these two instincts. The key is that no one understands him.

Everyone is eager to express their opinions, and everyone thinks they are right. When these many voices come together, they become a torrent, and finally converge into meaningless noise. Everyone wants their own voice to be heard.

Being heard, but actually the one who is really listening hears nothing, and this is what God encounters all the time.

If God can hear, He will give peace and happiness, but what if He cannot hear?

At this time, human power has reached its limit and is beyond imagination. This situation is like chaos, unpredictable and full of countless possibilities.

Just like an encounter, no one expected it and could only deal with it by adapting to circumstances.

He must hate this situation because he is a man who holds his destiny in his own hands.

Once Britain and France go to war again, Napoleon may sell Louisiana in order to raise military expenses, or exchange it for the United States as an ally.

So the Spanish exchanged Tuscany for Louisiana. On the surface, it seemed like they were at a disadvantage, but they exchanged such a large territory for such a small piece of land.

Napoleon's greed for territory made him suffer a lot, but it is useless to blame him now. At least at the time, it seemed that he had made a very good deal.

Louisiana originally belonged to Spain, and Spain had a fleet stationed there. With the current relationship between France and Spain's allies, it is not against the rules of the game for the Spanish fleet to cruise on the Mississippi River.

It is "reasonable" for them to block British merchant ships. France's demand for tobacco is so great that if they block British merchant ships, Spanish merchant ships will be able to transport tobacco to France.

Smoking has always been somewhat related to war. Napoleon could smoke, but he was more fond of snuff. She originally planned to order a lighter and give it to him, but as soon as she thought that this thing might change the situation of the war, she did not dare to act rashly.

.

The tone-deaf guy would hum a song when he was in a good mood. The whole song had only one lyric: With one kiss from him, he is now a doctor.

This song is from an old opera. It tells the story of a little girl. Her lover helped her heal a winged insect bite. As the lyrics say, his kiss was like a doctor.

He kissed her bitten bump.

How much she hates that bastard depends entirely on how happy he is. Who can imagine what it would be like for a woman to beat the God of War with a book.

There was no doubt that she was relieved. After the anger subsided, she continued to prepare for the banquet. Food and tableware were not difficult. After all, Boulogne-sur-Mer is a seaport city. What she didn't expect was that Watt actually came to France. It seemed that

The legend is true, France and England intended to exchange each other's subjects.

This is a banquet for 2,000 people. It is not easy to set up such a large tent, and there are so many actors. At this time, Saint Méry’s organizational skills can be seen. His ability to become the State Counselor of Parma is indeed

Not suitable.

Then she discovered the "idle" General Andrei.

Luo Stone had already left for London to serve as ambassador to Britain. That was Andre's position. His face was ugly.

She may have provoked a "political enemy" for herself, even though the other party never liked her at all.

The disadvantage of living in isolation is that she doesn't know many people, so she can't find a suitable person among those she knows and introduce him to Parma as State Counselor, even though there are many people who are crowded with people for this position.

Sometimes she had to admit that Josephine also had arrangements and plans. Although "in the future" Napoleon's queen Marie Louise would inherit the Principality of Parma, it was because she was a princess of the Habsburg family, allowing her to inherit a principality.

It can be regarded as well-deserved.

Parma can appoint a "steward" before there is no master.

The Renaissance was not only a "literary" revival, it also opposed ignorance and superstition, allowing people to understand the world through the natural scientific thinking and practice of the ancient Greek period.

Sometimes a person cannot tell whether he is a human being or God, especially when he is intoxicated with flowers and applause.

Georgiana was a little worried that Fresnel would be "pushed out". The young genius could easily get lost in the forest, not to mention that his theory was first proposed by Condorcet.

He is very talented, but scientific research requires money. Which person in the Moonlight Society is not a rich man?

Even if you have to drive him back to class, it must be after the celebration, otherwise he will always be thinking about who was young and had no fun.

What determines our destiny is not our abilities, but our choices.

She hoped she wouldn't ruin a genius by meddling in her own business.

After all, experiment is the standard for testing "truth", and it is left to time to prove it in the future.

"lady."

Georgiana, who was conducting the scene, turned back.

"A lady asked me to give you this." Figel said and handed a small golden ball to Georgiana.

"Where is that man?" asked Georgiana.

"It's over there on the stage." Figel pointed to the stage being set up not far away, with a woman in a cloak standing underneath.

Georgiana took the Golden Snitch from Figel's hand and walked towards him.
