Chapter 2266 Poseidon's Winter Feast Eight
Chapter 2268 Poseidon’s Winter Feast (10)
A German poem about Frederick I goes like this:
Following the blood of the murderer, I climbed the hill carefully.
Corpses littered the fields, and the survivors stood up, stretched their necks, looked carefully, and searched carefully.
The battlefield was full of smoke and smoke, and he was chosen as the anointed one, the messenger of God, and the defender.
The "anointed one" here refers to Frederick I. Before him, Prussia was only an elector. Frederick I himself was crowned king, and since then Prussia has officially existed as a kingdom.
East Prussia and Brandenburg are separated by the Kingdom of Poland. This is mainly because of the port of Danzig. During the first partition of Poland, Frederick II annexed this port and a large piece of land between East and West Prussia. From then on, the Kingdom of Prussia
Connected together.
Intervening in the Polish issue and allowing Poland to recover the Port of Danzig and its lost territory can continue to divide Prussia. This is also the reason why the French king is eyeing the Holy Roman Empire. It can make it easier for them to defeat each other, but military and diplomatic victories are only temporary.
There is such a case. In 1733, King August II of Poland died, leaving the Polish throne vacant. Then the War of Polish Succession broke out. France, Spain, the Two Sicilies, and Prussia successively participated in the war. There was a man named Andrei.
The Prussian colonel Jas-Joachim was killed in this war. His widow Elisabeth inherited his estate on the Kaisersee and used the Berlin court to demand back the debts released by her husband.
She used the money to invest in reputable local credit institutions, or lend money to neighbors at an interest rate of 5%. She also accepted deposits from all walks of life, operated the family manor on a commercial basis, and also supervised the internal size of the manor.
In family matters, try to be fair.
Her neighbor Helen Charlotte von Leistwitz inherited a piece of land left by her husband on the edge of the floodplain downstream of Lake Kaiser. Von in German means nobility or noble descendant, the surname of Colonel Joachim.
None. The Junker nobility can be divided into combat Junkers, court Junkers, House Junkers and country Junkers, among which the country Junkers are the most "rough". In order to strengthen the acceptance of the locals, Mrs. Lestertwitz will
Her name was changed to Kaiser, but as soon as she arrived, she had a dispute with the locals over the harvesting of reed leaves and grass by the lake in late autumn.
The local people felt that they had the right to harvest the grass for livestock use in the winter. They also claimed the right to plant flax on the small beaches dotted along the lakeshore and open printing and dyeing factories. Mrs. Kaiser strongly opposed these statements. She felt
The right to harvest reeds around the entire lake belongs to her estate.
After many failed attempts at coordination, she filed a lawsuit against the people in a Berlin court and instructed the people in the manor to prepare sticks.
Junker means "little master" in German. Junker nobles regard joining the army as the highest honor and tradition for men in the family. Don Quixote also brought a knight servant with him. Mrs. Kaiser's order allowed these "family members" to
Extremely excited.
The Berlin court ruled that both parties' rights to use coexist. This result was not ideal for Mrs. Kaiser. However, a new problem arose. There is a material for making Prussian blue called yellow blood salt, which is made by reacting ox blood with plant ash.
Yes, it reacts with ferric chloride to form ferric ferrocyanide, Prussian blue, which poisons the fish in the lake. Many fish have died and the lake has become smelly. If things continue like this, even the reeds on the lakeside will become smelly.
There was no way to feed the livestock, and the one who invested in the printing and dyeing factory was Elizabeth, who ran the manor on a commercial basis.
Mrs. Kaiser appointed some people to prevent the printing and dyeing factory from continuing to work. The collaborators of the printing and dyeing factory refused to pay Elizabeth interest on this grounds. To make matters worse, Mrs. Kaiser's hunters shot and scared away the workers, and the investment in the printing and dyeing factory was
The victims were the townspeople who seized a fisherman's flat-bottomed boat, while Elizabeth's loan recipients were mostly residents of the town. The villagers who originally had a dispute with Mrs. Kaiser over the use rights of reeds and grass now had a dispute with Mrs. Kaiser.
She stood aside.
The printing and dyeing factory and other townspeople elected Elizabeth as their representative. While the two parties were fighting in the Berlin courts, they occasionally had conflicts over the control of the lake and its resources. It seemed that the fair Elizabeth lost to the rough and aggressive Mrs. Kaiser.
But Elizabeth won the lawsuit. Mrs. Kaiser had no right to prevent others from building a printing and dyeing factory by the lake. On the contrary, Mrs. Kaiser was planning to cut down trees and expand the farm. She was not allowed to expand the farm. On the surface, she rented livestock to the people for free and helped
They farmed and introduced new varieties of plants and were "enlightened landowners", but in fact they privatized public land, and the Prussian people's grazing, hunting and gathering rights on "public" land were exploited.
The two ladies were "fighting" fiercely. Originally, the water on the ground was free, but as pollution became more and more, clean water became less and less. Of course, the price of the soda water Georgiana bought was the same as the price of the Seine River, or even the Seine River.
The price of so-called clean water in fountains is different.
The price of the Châteton mineral water that Louis XIV drank was higher, although Georgiana personally found it unpleasant to drink. The spring of this water was once enclosed by the royal family. After the French Revolution, if someone privatized the land where the spring is located, then he
You can intercept this water flow and sell the water at a high price.
In the case of Arnold the miller, the district commissioner built a pond to appreciate carp. This system cut off the water source, which not only harmed the interests of Arnold, the mill owner of the waterwheel. Farmers all had to grind flour at Arnold's place. If Arnold could no longer grind flour, the farmers would not only
If you want to change places, you may have to pay an extra sum of money, so what is the lord doing? Oh, he is not here, he is living a happy life in Berlin and Vienna. As a peasant representative, who should Arnold look for if he does not look for the king?
The happiness that constitutes the right and wrong standard of utilitarian behavior is not the happiness of the individual, but the happiness of the relevant people. If one person occupies the vast majority and others cannot share it, it will be like that damn carp pond, where personal behavior and public interests will arise.
If there is no direct conflict, the public who cannot get "fairness" and "justice" will find other ways. During the Seven Years' War, France mainly focused on the North American battlefield. It was precisely because France lost so miserably in North America that Louis XVI was aggrieved.
Yu Huai wanted to make North America independent of Britain. The word dollar originated from Low German. Many Germans who participated in the war did not return to Europe after going to the United States. Who would be in the mood to appreciate carp when the villages became deserted?
?
The Low German-speaking area is eastern Belgium. During the Battle of Leuthen in the Seven Years' War, a bullet hit the neck of a Prussian baron without von in his name and entered his shoulder blade. Fortunately, he was not killed on the spot and did not hit the neck.
artery, but he needed surgery immediately.
He happened to meet a captured Austrian soldier. This soldier was a Belgian and graduated from the School of Surgery at the University of Lyon. Sadly, his surgical tools were taken away as trophies by the Prussian soldiers who captured him, but they found a
The cobbler's dull knife made ten incisions without anesthesia and removed the bullet from the Baron's back.
Another baron with Feng in his name was not so lucky. He was shot in the leg by a shotgun. The arrested surgeon told him that amputation was the only way to prevent the spread of infection, but anyone who had been to a field hospital knew where it was.
Compared to the bloody slaughterhouse-like operating room, what was even more terrifying was the wailing of wounded soldiers, the piles of legs, arms, and postoperative infections outside the tent. The baron rejected the doctor's advice, and then he died because of the worsening of his wounds.
died.
The baron with Feng in his name was only 17 years old and the only child in the family. What was more painful than a bullet that could kill him all at once was the feeling of watching death approaching step by step.
She was 17 years old and had just come of age in the wizarding world. There were even younger people who died in the Battle of Hogwarts. She remembered the Muggle boy who took pictures of Harry with a camera. He was petrified. At that time, he looked like
He died, and later he came back to life after taking the mandrake potion, but no potion could wake him up that time.
His father was a milkman and luckily he was not the only son, but his younger brother also went to war and was lucky enough to survive.
Georgiana is a woman, she can't stand this, she only hopes to have a man's heart of stone.
Margaret II, Countess of Flanders, founded the Sisters of Guinness by the Lake of Love in Bruges. She had two sons who were captured during the war with John of Avis, who came to find her.
Asking for ransom, she responded by roasting one of them with pepper sauce and eating the other with garlic paste.
She always felt that what a woman gave birth to was a child, not a piece of meat, not for beasts to eat. The young mother in the lullaby did not go to have fun and dance, but to look after the child at home. She hoped that the child would be healthy and strong, and she definitely did not want to see it.
He was stabbed so many times with a dirty shoemaker's shoe repair knife.
If it is crazy to "send a child to heaven" like Theodora and Chiara's wet nurse, what is the solution?
A desperate mother would not climb a mountain and sing the song of "The Anointed One" while looking at the battlefield littered with corpses.
She will scream and cry, but if her home becomes an occupied area, it will be the same as when Odysseus returned home and saw that his home was occupied by a group of "suitors" who not only ate meat and drank for fun, but also oppressed his wife and children.
Intolerable.
She doesn't want to become an "intruder" and be hated and feared by others, but people actually live in a world where there is a lack of tolerance and people should think before they do anything. In fact, few people think before they act.
If Voldemort didn't use the Avada Kedavra, Lily's magic wouldn't reflect the spell back on him.
Her tolerance has a bottom line. Human nature is inherently evil. Martina's human experiment has already produced results. The men are responsible for taking action and the women are responsible for giving orders in the crowd, until they put a loaded gun on Martina.
Only then did someone wake up and stop him. Before that, they did nothing.
Rather than using your own death to hope that those people's consciences will be whipped and become a short-lived lesson that will be quickly forgotten, it is better to let them wake up early.
The French Revolution banned the use of whipping in the army, but Prussia and Austria still used it. They were very familiar with it, but they usually watched others being whipped.
Figel didn't really whip everyone. She let them choose whether to kneel down and repent or get a whipping.
The men chose to stand and kiss the fire opal ring on Georgiana's hand.
This is not a good thing, because it means that she will be like Elizabeth or Mrs. Kaiser, fighting on their behalf.
The French want to drink coffee and eat sugar. This is their public interest. Through the treaty, the French Republic nominally recovered most of the colonies of the French King, but Saint-Domingue did not actually recover it. With the population of France and the current extraction
It is difficult to have sufficient supply of technology and land for growing sugar beet in Belgium, not to mention that only Ghent currently agrees to grow it.
Once Britain cuts off its supply from the sea, it will once again enter a situation of "few people and easy food", let alone "continental equilibrium".
Georgiana was also framed once in Switzerland. Coins used to build roads and carriage factories were shipped to the opposition soldiers through bank procedures. She was "neutral" to the point that she was not a person on either side.
There will never be an absolute neutral position, there will always be a preference for one party, but Georgiana doesn't like any party that stirs up troubles and exercises hegemony.
After the exhausting "ceremony", Georgiana returned to the venue. Others seemed not affected at all. One person was still laughing. It was the female boxer Goulding. Many people were laughing.
Surround her.
This "spy" didn't leave?
Georgiana walked over. She wanted to hear what Goulding was saying and why so many people were so fascinated and so happy.
