Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 782 Prisoner of Avignon

Education used to be enjoyed only by the rich. Latin is the common language. Pomona and Severus can still understand this part of the materials, but the materials written in Italian and Spanish cannot be understood. Fortunately, the Arabic numerals They still know the date of writing, but there are quite few diaries left until now.

Few people had the habit of keeping a diary. After so many years of erosion and Napoleon's search, there were even fewer books in the Venice library.

He was also looking for money from the Templars, after all there are many legends about where that money went.

But Pomona felt that the money should have been used by the French king to buy the pope's throne.

The darkness of the Middle Ages is almost all related to the Pope of French nationality. The initiator of the First Crusade, Urban, was French, and Clement V, who framed the Knights Templar together with the beautiful man, was also French. From 1305 to 1389, the popes were all French. At that time, the Holy See was even in Avignon, France. During the Middle Ages, the Pope had to leave Rome to temporarily live in peaceful Avignon because of the frequent wars throughout Italy. I know that this residence is six hundred years.

Pomona had a profound influence, only British students did not enjoy discounts on tickets to the Golden House, so I took out the promotional materials about the Golden House and found that the house originally belonged to the Contarini family.

The 97th, 100th, 104th and 106th Governors of Venice belonged to the Contarini family. Clement X happened to be famous for persecuting Protestants. If the Contarini family also hated Protestants, then his museum would not give The British discount is understandable.

Just like what the man said at the dinner at the Governor's Mansion that day, the British guy is as pale as a ghost. Last time it was reported in the newspaper that a pair of British Muggle teachers were slaughtered for dinner in Venice, and they went to New York for this matter. Times, the mayor of Venice said that he would give them justice, but in the end his investigation result was: It costs money to come to Venice.

The extorted meal money will definitely not come back, they are still professors at the University of Birmingham.

As I said, Protestants don't have a strong sense of sin. Pomona said looking at the English materials.

Why are you sighing so much? Severus asked.

The Contarini family thinks the British did it. Pomona said, That's why only the students of the British School of Architecture don't enjoy the preferential treatment for entering the Golden House. Didn't you suspect Marcandonio Chase before? Did Dini run short of military expenses? They did embezzle it, but they did not fill their own pockets, but gave it to the Holy See. Clement X funded the Polish hussars against the Ottoman cavalry. In the 17th century, the sea battles were mainly between Portugal and the Ottoman Empire The navy, the Venetian navy does not need so much armament, Francesco Mosironi does not know the deal, when he sees that the inventory in the ammunition depot is inconsistent with the ledger, he will ask his predecessor for it, and the council of ten is dispatched There will be a lot of families involved.

Was it the British or the Venetians? Severus asked.

Why did you choose Venice as your bank? asked Pomona.

I want to find a place to transfer assets to Malfoy. Severus said, Draco can come to Venice to live in the future.

Oh, my God. Pomona clutched her head with a splitting headache.

Just like the musician who went to Genoa, these two guys thought that the British Aurors would not come to extradite them by going to Venice, Venice is a good place for political asylum!

Remember when I told you to go to South America? How are you doing? Severus asked.

Do you think I have time! she complained.

No, you didn't. He said triumphantly, wrapping his arms around her from behind. We spend too much time together.

Do you understand why you still do stupid things?

He began to kiss her neck, the light touch like a butterfly.

We're in the library. She whispered Stop.

It was as if a dragon was panting behind her, he said after a moment.

Why do you think Portugal was the main force at that time?

The Inquisition. Pomona sneered. Under the Habsburg dynasty, the Inquisition has become a tool in the hands of the government to change religious beliefs. The Portuguese king is appointed by the parliament rather than the gods. The church and the nobility Neither was willing to give up tax-free privileges, the king was too weak to impose taxes that even the Habsburgs could not increase, and he was too isolated to subdue the nobility or the church, which wanted Portugal to maintain Independence, and dare not offend Spain, the largest Catholic force in existence, just as Britain and Spain competed for maritime supremacy, the task of dealing with the Ottoman Navy was in charge of the Portuguese, and Portugal became a pawn in several conflicting strategic layouts. All These are all intertwined in a great confrontation between the North and the South in Europe. In this confrontation, Portugal is one of the most ideologically conservative countries in the Catholic South. Do you know the People’s Commune Movement in China.”

What? Severus asked.

When we were in XZ, we only ate and didn't work. Do you still remember the face of the chef who shared the food with us? She said with a smile. The so-called big pot of rice, later the land cultivation changed from a collective responsibility system to an individual contract system. The efficiency of working for oneself is much higher than that of working for the collective. When working collectively, some people can have food without working. In this way It's unfair to hardworking people. Protestants are developing faster than Catholics for this reason. The British navy is only busy making money in the Mediterranean. They don't care about the Ottoman navy. Portugal needs the Pope's support. would be annexed by Spain, the Habsburgs took the Portuguese throne by marriage, when France and the Ottomans formed a sacrilegious alliance against the Habsburgs.

In order to deal with the Ottoman navy, the Portuguese navy was used. Severus continued, We went to the Michelangelo that day, and a shipwreck hunter said that the American Ocean Salvage Company found a 1694 ship in Gibraltar. The British warship Sussik sank in 2010, and the treasure inside was worth 700 million pounds, but there was no way to salvage it due to technical limitations.”

Like I said, the British! Pomona couldn't help complaining. Other people fight wars, and they make a lot of money.

You're British too, Severus reminded.

I'm Hufflepuff, and I'm not involved in Muggle disputes.

So the British really did it? Severus asked.

Merlin's beard, a broken island has so many secrets. She was so angry that she punched him.

Aww. He pretended to yell in pain, that punch had no strength at all, what's his name!

Your plan is estimated to fail, and the Italians will not agree.

Not necessarily. He said with a sly smile. Francesco Morosini was the governor in 1688. Why did the ammunition depot wait until August 29, 1689, almost a year later?

Her thoughts stopped.

Because the only person who can prove the purity of the Contarini family is dead, and it has to be detonated if there is no proof of death.

So you believe the Italians did it? asked Pomona.

Want to bet? he asked.

No. She immediately denied.

Coward. He said contemptuously.

So, did it rain and thunder on August 29, 1689?

In fact, not only the diary, but also the weather conditions are written in the logbook. A pencil sketch was found in the safe of the Titanic. If the logbook of the battleship Sussik was also written with pencils, then the truth may be preserved. down.

There is another £700 million treasure trove.

Spain and England are still fighting over the ownership of the Strait of Gibraltar, and it has not yet been resolved who it belongs to.

How about we ask the mermaid to help us steal that ship? Pomona said with bright eyes, as if she saw piles of gold coins piled up in front of her eyes.

Where do you put it after you take it? Severus said relentlessly.

Get over it! I don't want UBS and Gringotts.

The old bat glared at her again with his death stare.

It's you who said the Italians wouldn't agree to the plan! he roared.

Did I say it? Is there any evidence? She began to cheat.

The old bat was pissed off.

Hahaha. Pomona laughed with her waist in, as if she had won a round.

700 million pounds was the valuation 20 years ago, so it must be doubled now
