Harry Potter Morning Light

The early British immigrants came from Siyi, Guangdong, China. In the middle of the 19th century, Chinese sailors were sold to England. Liverpool was one of the most prosperous seaports in the world at that time, so they all landed in the port. After a hundred years of vicissitudes, the development of Liverpool has come to an end, and new immigrants have little interest in this poor city.

There is a large Chinese population in London, but their residences are scattered, and many of them are overseas employees and students, so there is a lot of mobility. Before World War II, there was a Chinatown in the dock area of ​​East London. The overseas Chinese in it were Chinese sailors, just like those in Liverpool. They intermarried with British and Irish women and opened laundries or restaurants to make a living, but after the invention of the washing machine in the 1930s, laundries were gradually eliminated.

After World War II, the ancient Chinatown in East London was destroyed by the war. The local Chinese turned to the West End for development. The Chinatown in the West End is a prosperous golden area. It is a poor rural area, and it is not easy for the villagers to make a living. In addition, the original residents of Hong Kong at that time automatically obtained the right of abode in the UK, and they did not need to apply for any visas to enter and exit freely. The farmers took their savings and went to London to make a living, becoming a new force in the Chinese restaurant industry.

Illegal immigrants cannot send money back to the country through the bank, and those who also come to study abroad have their foreign exchange quota strictly limited to less than 50,000 US dollars. This amount of money is not enough for international students to spend in the capitalist world, so underground banks came into being. gave birth.

Ordinary Chinese people absolutely don’t know how their fellow countrymen spend money like water abroad. In the past, the British had to work hard to transport money from China back to the UK, but now there is no need for this step at all. A box of US dollar cash is thrown on the poker table, or a luxury car dealership. The scene is exactly the same as the God of Gamblers in the Hong Kong movie.

This led to two industries. One is to make points for foreign students. Because these foreign students are sensual, have poor grades and rich money, some intermediary companies cover them, and the other is to kidnap these rich students. Master China.

Not every international student is so rich and not doing business. There are also those who really want to learn something and go back to the library all day. Unfortunately, because of a small number of people, the concept of Chinese being rich and carrying a lot of cash has been deeply ingrained. Going to a nightclub for 2,000 pounds a night without batting an eye.

These kidnappers are generally asking for money, and they will not tear up the ticket when they give money, but there are special circumstances-the ticket is sometimes simply disappeared, and the body cannot be found. When this happens, no one can do anything. They don't pay much attention to disappearance cases, unless they are the children of politicians. These people have bodyguards when they go in and out.

In the event of a robbery, Bruce Lee's approach is to kick away. Tourists don't know what will happen when they encounter this situation. After all, not everyone has learned Kung Fu.

The mental arithmetic ability of Europeans is not as strong as that of Chinese people. The money laundering business is not limited to Hongmen, people from many countries are doing it, and the profits from that area are quite considerable.

It’s just that you can’t do this like a bank, and you have to do it in private. Chinese restaurants, karaoke halls, Chinese medicine stores, barber shops, any serious-looking shops may get involved in this business.

Every time she sees Chinese medicine acupuncture and moxibustion, Pomona has the feeling that he is using witchcraft. Qi is as invisible as magic, but you can feel it. It is said that it flows along the meridians and acupoints. run.

There is also moxibustion that does not pierce the skin with silver needles. The smell of burning wormwood is unpleasant, but it is good for curing diseases.

Amid the strong and bitter smell of traditional Chinese medicine, she slowly opened her eyes. At this moment, she was not in London Chinatown, but in a luxurious apartment. The person exuding that bitter herbal smell was Severus Sene general.

The sky in London is gloomy all the year round, and even the lighting on the top floor is not very good. He is half shrouded in light and half hidden in darkness, holding a glass of whiskey in his hand, and the orange-yellow liquid is the only color on his body.

You went to Chinatown?

Where else would you go? He smirked.

Did you see the horse let go?

He's not an easy guy to meet, and he kept me waiting outside for an hour. He cursed grumpily, taking a sip of his drink.

He has been waiting for you at Ivan's house for a long time, and you are even. Pomona admired Valentina a little bit, how a little girl persuaded the big man to help. Did you see him in the end?

A kid was kidnapped, and his parents in China asked him for help.

So you didn't see him?

Severus smiled coldly, shaking the glass so that the ice cubes in the glass hit the glass wall.

Have you read Sun Tzu's Art of War? The three armies can win the spirit, and the general can win the mind. Don't fall for his tricks.

The werewolf will take two or three days to come, I can talk to him.

Have you ever thought that Chinatown may not be London Chinatown, but Liverpool Chinatown, and there will be celebrations there on Lantern Festival.

We have limited manpower and cannot divide our forces.

But you can spread false information, combine fiction and reality to confuse the other party, and most people can apparate, so there is no problem of scattered troops. She paused, You have to deal with werewolves, not horses. Don't make the same mistake as Voldemort.

Have you ever heard of Shenyin? Severus asked suddenly.

I've heard that it's a Japanese legend.

Last week, another Muggle Shenyin who got off the wrong station on the subway, and the word Shenyin didn't come from Japan, but from China, that's what he told me. Severus said slowly, God There are four types of hidden results. One is that the process is still remembered after returning safely, the other is that the process is forgotten after returning safely, the third is that the body is found, and the fourth is that there is no news and life and death are uncertain. Which one do you think this time will be? ?”

Fact or legend? asked Pomona. There are a lot of urban legends on the London Underground, not necessarily true.

It was Marcus who told me that people who live underground have been spreading rumors recently that a homeless man went to a place like heaven. He lived there happily and almost didn't want to go back. I asked Ma Yourein today. , His expression is very interesting. He curled the corner of his mouth, and said like an aftertaste, He seems to know something.

Could it be as written in Peach Blossom Spring? She said whimsically, I walked into a cave, and then went to another world.

Are you trying to say that time and space are chaotic?

I don't know, he didn't disappear, he came back again, this is not caused by time travel. She bit her nails, lost in thought.

Do you want to live in the world of Taohuayuan? Severus asked.

I don't want to. Pomona replied without hesitation, That place is the Garden of Eden created by God. To live in it, you must abide by its rules. I don't want to be God's pet.

You don't want to live in seclusion anymore?

When things here are over, I'll go wherever you go. She stood up, walked to him and sat down, leaning on his shoulder Hermione asked me if the person who assassinated Arthur had anything to do with Slytherin, I said I don’t know, anyway, I don’t know anyone.”

You envy the life of the Weasley family?

It's okay to be as plain as they are. She said listlessly, Who made me a woman.

Do you think Arthur is still interested in Molly? He asked suddenly.

He loves her, said Pomona enviously, whatever she looks like.

Me too. He leaned over to kiss her lips, and then slowly pushed her onto the sofa.

In a city that lacks sunlight like London, clothes must be ironed to dry completely. It is actually a red-hot copper iron, the difference is that it is placed on the clothes instead of the human skin.

In fact, Wang Mang is not that bad, but it's really strange, how could she suddenly think of him.
