Chapter 570 The Queen's Purse

In the novel "Gone With the Wind", Rhett is different from other men. He knows that the situation of the war is not good for the South, but he still joins the Southern Army to resist the North.

In Scarlett's eyes, the handsome Ashley is knowledgeable and gentle. Even though the other party already has a family with herself, she still tries to get close to Ashley. When her first husband died on the battlefield, Scarlett was not sad at all. Rhett saw this and paid a lot of money so that Scarlett could dance in mourning clothes. But Rhett later saw the vanity of her innocence and vivaciousness, and asked her to keep her face.

The years have made Brad grow up, but Ashley, on the other hand, has been living in the past. After the defeat of the war, the life of all the manor owners was very bad. The ladies and gentlemen in the south lost their rich life, and the gentle and elegant "knight" didn't want and lack Faced with courage, Scarlett looked for him when he was desperate, and he was helpless.

Melanie is ordinary, she doesn't have Scarlett's beauty, but she has advantages that the wayward Scarlett doesn't have. Melanie is generous and decent to everyone and everything, and can always see the advantages of others. With sincerity to the lowly whore, to Rhett, and even the haughty Scarlett. When Scarlett presided over the manor alone, the servants complained that Scarlett was mean, but Melanie said that she supported them.

However, she is not the "Mother". Scarlett shot and killed the thieves who broke into the house, and Melanie calmly helped hide the body.

Compared with Melanie, Scarlett thinks about herself first before considering others, but the troubled times made her grow up. Scarlett's first marriage was because of willfulness, and although the second marriage took away her sister's fiancé, But it was for more people. If her sister married Frank, she would definitely only care about living a comfortable life for herself, and she didn't have as bright a mind as Scarlett.

Sometimes women can't help but think, do these men have no brains? Especially Frank, who still accepted Scarlett even though he had a marriage contract.

Men also have vanity. A beautiful wife can better set off his success. This strong need for social recognition can reduce their judgment, especially when other men praise and admire them. At this time, they can remain unmoved and still Ashley, who loves the plain-looking Melanie, stands out.

The best thing is what you can't get. Scarlett hopes that Ashley can pay attention to herself like everyone else, but the person who really understands her is Rhett.

He is very smart, and he will not be used by her like Scarlett's previous two husbands, but he can't help doting on her, that selfish, arrogant woman who dismisses everyone's strange eyes.

There is a scene where Rhett brings a hat to Scarlett. She clearly knows how to wear it, so she wears it backwards on purpose so that Rhett can help her put it on with her own hands. This makes Pomona fall in love with the selfish Scarlett.

Scarlett is very scheming, but she also has a cute side. You don't have to be tired of talking like a baby, you can also pretend to be "I don't know anything" like Scarlett.

Many girls feel that acting like a baby will make them look weak and not independent. But in fact, a woman who acts like a baby is often "lucky". Even if that woman is scumbag in the eyes of the same sex, men will still like her. Strictly speaking, Bai Ruide is also a scumbag, and the scumbags and scumbags are so damn sweet when they get together, and they are so affectionate that one can't wait for them to disappear in place.

In Chinese food, the shrimp should be skinned, and there are shrimps. There are many Chinese eating in the hall downstairs. The men peel the shrimps for the women very smoothly. When Pomona saw it, she felt as if she was in outer space.

The so-called "gentlemen" and "knights" may open chairs for women, but they will never take care of women's bags. In Chinatown, it is very normal for a man to carry a woman's bag. Don't they think it's not good for a man to carry a fancy woman's bag? what?

Unless the earth explodes, it is absolutely impossible for an "English gentleman" to carry a lady's bag for a woman. This is the benefit of magic. Putting anything into a space bag does not change the appearance or weight. So how many boxes The silver bullet was put into the "cosmos bag" by the reins and was easily taken away.

Pomona was very curious about the way Chinese wizard couples get along. It is estimated that the situation where the man carries the woman's bag will not happen, and what strange scenes will appear?

Maybe it was because she had been peeping for too long, Ma Youzai turned her gaze to her, and she immediately shifted her gaze to another direction.

The sun can cause halos, and sometimes the individual characteristics of things that people grasp do not reflect the essence of things. Eastern civilization has always had a magical charm for Westerners for thousands of years. The difference between east and west is not a geographical difference, but a cultural difference. At the core, Japan was originally an Eastern country, but it has also become a Western country after full Westernization. Many Japanese have accepted their subordinate status. Not every man who speaks a British accent is attractive.

In Scarlett's eyes, Ashley was asserted by her to be perfect, and her blindness caused her to lose Rhett, a speculator who made huge profits by crossing the blockade.

He will stop at nothing to achieve his ends, and dictate his own way of life according to his will and desire. In the face of war, he is a person who has a clear understanding of reality. He has a rough, practical and uninhibited personality, and regards morality as nothing. He loves Scarlett Scarlett deeply, his love seems plain and inadvertent, but in fact it is very deep, he can even tolerate Scarlett Scarlett's love for others all the time, until finally he feels tired.

Curiosity is enough to kill a cat, and Ma Youzai has a strong ambition. In a way, he is very similar to Severus, but Pomona doesn't think Severus is Rhett's kind of tolerant A person whose wife has cheated mentally.

It's time for her to stop being curious about Orientals. Although there is competition to motivate her, married people have withdrawn from the "free market".

They had caused a lot of trouble when Sirius was alive before, hell, she never thought that one day the campus prince would fight a snot-nosed one for her sake.

Compared with James, who is well-off in everything, Severus wants money but not money, looks but not looks, popularity and popularity, why would Lily fall in love with him?

It's so hard to find a reliable person these days. Both the Dark Lord and the White Wizard are dispatched. During the Battle of Hogwarts, when they arrived at the Viaduct Garden, many Death Eaters were appalled when they saw Harry Potter come back. Apparate ran away.

No matter how many mobs there are, the will of the fighters determines the quality.

Although she is a woman, she is also a warrior. When the adults were desperate, it was a group of young children who had just grown up and even minors protected the school.

She has to maintain that state, and only with a clear mind can she make a rational judgment. When the Gengzi Kingdom changed in 1900, Cixi heard the rumors that Xinyi and the Boxers were invulnerable, so she declared war on the Eight Kingdoms. However, there were too many "crowds". To suppress the Boxers and expand their aggression against the Qing Dynasty, the aggressive coalition forces composed of Britain, the United States, France, Russia, Germany, Japan, Italy, and Austria attacked BJ and captured BJ, the capital of the Qing Dynasty.

The United States failed to catch up in the two wars of 1840 and 1860. It finally caught up in 1900. After the era of reconstruction, the United States surpassed Britain to become the world's largest economic power. Capitalism needs to be contained by faith. If If there is no belief to restrain one's behavior, then human's greedy nature will dominate human behavior.

In fact, every economic crisis has a common feature, that is, the gap between the rich and the poor is too large. In order to obtain more profits, capitalists make workers work overtime and squeeze their working hours.

Time is fair to everyone. There are only 24 hours. If workers spend too much time on work, they will have no time to spend. If the wages are too low, there is no way to spend time. The Fair Labor Standards Act promulgated by Roosevelt is To regain this balance, trade unions will fight for the benefits of workers and low-wage workers for their members, involving minimum wages, overtime pay, child labor, equal pay for equal work, and other important content. Non-union members can only rely on the standard labor law, which is a pity By 1935, this act was declared unconstitutional by the Federal Supreme Court, but it was not abolished, but underwent major changes.

This set of laws is matched with the National Industrial Revitalization Act, and its purpose is to reduce blind production and regulate industrial production.

People will learn lessons after going through the big wind and waves. There is a feeling of "enlightenment". The Japanese who have experienced the bubble economy have become like Buddhas and have no desires. In this way, a society without desires is like a stalled car. , no motivation to move on.

It is normal for men to like women. If men don't like women, parents need to worry.

A normal society has to go through several stages of rebirth, development, prosperity, decline and extinction, but most of them will rebound after entering the period of decline. Japan did not go through that stage and went directly to the stage of extinction.

Once the success is over, the Central Bank of Japan is counting against the Ministry of Finance. As long as they do not print money, no matter how the Ministry of Finance adjusts interest rates, the economy will not be able to improve. As long as the Ministry of Finance is incompetent, it is time for their opportunity to come. However, they didn't expect that people have no motivation to consume, no matter how they reform the economy, they still have no way to see the dream of the yen princes.

Rebuilding the Japanese economy is not something Western economics can help, but the knowledgeable Chinese obviously won't help them either.

Why help them? Anyway, Japan did not pay China war reparations, nor did it refund part of the treaties signed during the Qing Dynasty like other countries.

Such a country, let it perish like this.

The advantage of capitalism is that capital is the supreme power. If there is a financial crisis in the United States, Mr. President will not ignore it like Mie Yasushi. Quantitative easing is the only solution.

The success of the Morgan family is the epitome of Wall Street's success, and it is also closely related to the fate of the United States. They even defeated the syndicate led by the Rothschild family and monopolized the right to issue new government bonds in the United States.

Henry Shaw is a newspaper tycoon, but to use the family motto of Morgan, a financial tycoon: it is not the law that drives history, but money, just money.

They are absolutely wrong, those old Japanese people who live alone, the money is thrown in the trash like garbage after death, and the homeless people who find it just use that picked up wealth to play pachinko.

Pomona believes that it is women who are used to promote the progress of history, and only women. After Liu Bang's death, it was Lu Zhi who continued to promote Huang Lao in China, and she influenced Dou Yifang.

The Merovingian dynasty was established by its first king, Clovis. His queen persuaded him to accept Catholicism, which led to the long-term cooperation and mutual utilization between the Frankish Kingdom and the Roman Catholic Church, and to a certain extent, established the political model of Europe in the future. .

In the Battle of Yarmouk, which determined the fate of Arabia, the Byzantine army at this time had already relied heavily on cavalry power to complete the winning blow, unlike the ancient Roman period when it relied on infantry phalanxes to win. The cavalry of the Arab army is not a strong point. But compared to the Byzantine troops with rich cavalry combat experience, they are more adaptable to the climate in the Arabian region, and at the same time have the morale advantage brought by the new religion. However, years of wars and the national strength that has just been severely damaged cannot support them with a strong enough cavalry force.

On the first day of the battle, the Byzantine side first launched a tentative attack, but failed to break through the defense line of the Arab infantry.

At dawn the next day, the Byzantine army attacked from the left and right wings, trying to use the advantage of the frontal width of more troops to outflank the line of the Arab army with a relatively small number of people. However, Khaled commanded the cavalry reserve team to successively lift the siege of Byzantium on the left and right wings and hold the line of defense.

On the third day of the battle, the Byzantine army focused its attack on the right flank of the Arab army and once broke through their frontal defense. However, Khalid once again played the role of the reserve team. He commanded the reserve team and the left-wing cavalry to pinch the right wing of the Byzantine army, and at the same time ordered the right-wing cavalry to flank the left wing of the Byzantine army, defeating the Byzantine army's outflank attempt again. So far, both sides in the war have figured out the opponent's routine.

On the fourth day, Byzantine coach Wahan continued to attack the weaker right flank of the Arab army and repelled the frontal Arab infantry. Khalid divided the cavalry reserve into two groups and repelled the attack of the Byzantine army for the third time after paying heavy casualties. During the battle, some Arab soldiers had already given up the fight and fled, and the women accompanying the army behind them drove them back by various means. Some Arab women even killed those who insisted on fleeing, and encouraged the whole army to stick to the line of defense. It was the woman who served as the supervisor of the battle team and drove the men to continue fighting.

As for Morgan’s claim that money advances history, women have spent the most money since ancient times. Oriental silk is so sought after by the West, not because of women’s clothing needs. In the era of the Industrial Revolution, the fabric of women's clothes became cotton, and cotton was the source of confidence for the American Southern Federation to defeat the North.

Queen Victoria mourned Prince Albert for forty years after his death, wearing only black throughout the year.

Cixi, who was at the same time as her, should not be bad in intrigue, and Cixi also likes the "Book of Songs" very much. As long as she has free time, she may take the initiative to explain Chinese culture to the maids around her, and will teach it from time to time Some Western knowledge.

Another hobby of Cixi is painting, and she is particularly good at painting flowers and birds, she seems very talented in this respect. In addition, Cixi's ability to learn and comprehend is also quite amazing. At that time, Emperor Xianfeng evaded reality and paid attention to sensuality. up. Therefore, Cixi has been reading the chapters of various provinces from time to time, and is familiar with major events. With Cixi's wit and intelligence, the government will soon start to operate, and the division of monarchs and ministers will be clear, and this will also lay a solid foundation for her future control of power.

Cixi is definitely not a person who is completely willing to be slaughtered arbitrarily, otherwise she would not support the self-improvement movement. Later, Britain and Russia attempted to split XJ from China through the invasion of the Agub army. At that time, Cixi was firmly opposed . At that time, the official history made Zuo Zongtang go all out to realize the combat strategy because Cixi made the decision to recover XJ.

Queen Victoria was actually a very complicated person. Sometimes she is very gentle and kind, exuding the charm of a woman, but sometimes she is tough and cold. Sometimes it conforms to the trend of the times, but sometimes it is particularly stubborn against the corner. She turned down the Sultan's aid when dealing with the Great Irish Famine.

In 1872, a 17-year-old Arthur O'Connor suddenly shot and wanted to assassinate Queen Victoria who was about to step into the carriage. But the assassination failed and Arthur was captured on the spot. Later, when the assassination case was tried, the judge ruled that the young murderer was insane and only sentenced him to one year in prison. However, Queen Victoria was very opposed, and tried her best to ask this dangerous person to be exiled abroad, so as not to do any stupid things in the future. But the judge explained politely: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I don't think I can do this, because Arthur is the most unworthy of this, and the legal principles of the British Empire do not allow me to abuse punishment like this."

In the end, Victoria succumbed. On the other hand, Cixi, the "slavery" that has been used since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs made the relationship between monarchs and ministers, especially Hanchen, directly evolve into a relationship of absolute obedience. The harsh autocratic system made the country up and down Like a pool of stagnant water, the subjects are all thinking about their own future and interests. In order to please the "Lafayette", they obey her in everything, including her embezzlement of military expenses to build the Summer Palace. They have no idea of ​​building a better country at all, let alone Risked it.

That "genius" Palmerston managed to legalize the opium trade, Manchu legalized Britain and so did educated people who knew smoking opium was wrong, but there was curiosity and some not-so-intelligent Brits It is also necessary to smoke opium, "There are only eternal interests and no eternal enemies". Who told him to be full of interests?

"Want to have one?" Ma Youxuan handed over a pack of 555 brand cigarettes, he did it very naturally, obviously he did the same thing more than once.

Pomona thought of Rose in Titanic, who also smoked in front of everyone at the dinner table, so Pomona decided to smoke one too.

"I have mine too, why don't you smoke mine." Severus said suddenly at this moment, he took his silver cigarette case out of his pocket, and a row of silver-white filter-tipped cigarettes were neatly placed inside.

Mr. Wen, Mr. Lin and Mr. Lin's son all looked at her curiously.

"My God, why is no one stopping me!" Pomona withdrew her eager hand.

"I'm Jack, not Carl, that's what you said."

"Who are Jack and Carl?" Ma Youxuan asked.

"A character in a movie, Jack is an artist." Mr. Lin's son continued.

"I think I've seen that movie, it's called Titanic, right?" Ma Youxuan asked.

Pomona didn't answer his question.

"That's right, it's that movie, does Mr. Ma like it?" Severus replied.

"The movies of the 20th century can still be watched. Mr. Lin still has some stocks in that company."

"I was asking if you liked that movie." Severus smirked.

"If you were Jack, would you die for a woman?" Ma Youxuan took out a cigarette and lit him up like a magic trick, and the box was filled with smoke.

"Not every poor boy has the opportunity to meet noble women." Severus said triumphantly, "not to mention getting her love."

"So, do you think it's worth it?" Ma Youzai took a puff of the cigarette with his eyes closed, and he spit out the smoke like a Chinese fireball, hiding his face behind the smoke like a veil.

"I heard that you believe that 'a scholar dies for his confidant'. Would you die for your confidant?"

"I asked you first, Moriarty, and you should answer me first."

"You're a smart guy, and I'm sure you already know my answer."

The horse stopped talking, and he looked at Severus Snape in silence, and Severus looked at him without backing down, and the happy atmosphere just now disappeared.

"It's just a movie, why take it so seriously." Mr. Wen said with a smile, "There is a screening room next door, you can watch it anytime you want."

"Miss, do you want to see it?" Mr. Lin's son said lively.

"Yes, thank you." Pomona hurriedly stood up and left the private room with Xiao Lin.

In this atmosphere, she really can't eat, and it's easier to be with children.

If you are bored at home and looking for excitement, you can go to see foreign exchange and A50. The opening of the Hong Kong market on the fifth day of the lunar new year has been suspended. Yesterday, I had a crazy meal, and today I pulled it back. There is also news that people who lost their jobs due to the epidemic can suspend their mortgage repayments.
