Chapter 765 Frankincense and Sulfur
Although the consecrated one on the left side of the main altar in the Church of Our Lady of Ankang looks like the ark of the covenant, it is actually not the ark of the covenant.
The Catholic Church attaches great importance to rituals, and the Mass of the Holy Music is a must for the mass ceremonies.
As for mass ceremonies, Christianity has split itself. Catholicism, Protestantism, and Orthodox churches each have their own rules. Compared with Protestants, Catholicism spends a lot more on churches and instruments.
The church is magnificent, and other constructions can't keep up. The flooded situation in Venice is replaced by a pump pump in the United Kingdom. The wizard can solve it with a curse. How can it cost 4.5 billion euros to get some "Moses plan" ".
That plan obviously didn't work. After two years of construction, St. Mark's Square was still flooded. The Venetians were accustomed to flooding, not to mention the flood once every ten years. Is there any plan for everyone to live the same way? They are angry with the city government. Selling those palaces without saying hello to them, there is also the issue of tax increases.
Repairing that dam has nothing to do with it. No matter how much money is spent, the officials must be embezzling.
Pomona didn't know if Severus was healed after standing at the black spot of the "vortex" for so long last night, anyway, her stomach was healed, and when she came to Venice, she finally had a pizza at 8 o'clock in the evening. After that, there are no more restaurants, and the ones that open are very expensive, and the pizzeria is cheap and affordable.
One of the benefits of getting married is that you can eat a lot of cheese and snacks in someone's contemptuous eyes. It reminded her of the good times when she sneaked into the Hogwarts kitchen in the middle of the night to steal food.
Hefpaff's lounge is next to the kitchen. Slytherins are generally very good-looking. This is their rare advantage, but every year there are people like Crabbe and Gore who hold a big in the middle of the night. Go back to the bedroom with heaps of food.
Severus' figure has gone out of shape in the past few years, but he said that if it is reduced, it will be reduced. In order to "beauty", it is said that Platinum Malfoy uses many beauty curses every day.
This is the weird thing, Severus's hair is so greasy, why is he embarrassed to walk with Malfoy?
Asking him to wash his hair is as difficult as getting a dog to bathe. Some time ago, he had a conscience, so he washed his hair deliberately and prepared a good dinner.
Now, that good day is gone forever.
He took a shower in such a luxurious bathroom last night without washing his hair.
Everyone who has raised a dog knows that some dogs like water and take a bath very well and obediently. Another kind of dog, bathing is a nightmare, he was so ridiculed last night that he did not wash his hair and just changed his clothes.
"Actually, you can use salt to build a bridge." During the bath, he used his magic wand to direct the bath salt to build a bridge on the water. ."
She feels that this method does not seem to work.
But this method seems to save money. Anyway, the Venetians like sculptures. The salt bridge is replaced with a new pattern every few years. If you are not satisfied, you will sink it, and the sea water will make it disappear without a trace.
And it can also promote the sea salt bathing industry. Israel is selling Dead Sea salt as bath salt. Since ancient times, salt has been used as a clean skin care product. Anyway, sea water is inexhaustible.
It's just that after the salt bridge is repaired, the number of tourists will decrease, because the big boats can no longer enter the canal. While eating breakfast on Piazza San Marco, Pomona was observing that tourism is the pillar industry of Venice. Today's salt industry is not as profitable as it was in the Middle Ages, and the profits are too thin to adapt to the increasing growth. House price.
The Tower of Babel will fall down sooner or later, but she wants to see what happens after the U.S. housing price bubble bursts.
The Protestant's perception of sin is much lower than that of Catholicism. Greed is an original sin. It is the same as it is. Anyway, there is no God to punish him, and what he did is in line with the law, and the secular law cannot punish him of.
Neither God nor Caesar can do anything about him, the "devil" can be rampant.
Although St. Mark's Church is a popular tourist attraction, the monks inside still have to do morning prayers, and the sound of hymns can be heard from the open door of the church.
Sometimes there are old people with all white hair who walk across the square with the Bible in their hands. The pigeons are not afraid of him at all and continue to get together to eat pigeon food.
This kind of scenery is different from that of Londoners walking on the phone, always in a hurry, and frowning.
"We forgot about the algae." Severus said suddenly.
"What?" Pomona was chewing on the cream croissant. She was taken aback just now.
"Remember my house? That smelly river, there are no fish in it." Severus said with a stiff face, "The algae in the river suffocated the fish."
"As long as it is not flooded, I don't think the Venetians care if there are fish in the lagoon."
"There are no algae in the Dead Sea, the salt content is too high, and the method of using salt to absorb water does not work."
"Fresh water fell from the sky. I remember putting some salt in the water and the water level would drop."
"But salt kills microorganisms. Do you know what microorganisms are?"
Pomona smirked, "What do you think, dear?"
"Those who have received wizarding education since childhood don't know." He gritted his teeth and said, "including the pure-blooded traitor Arthur Weasley."
Pomona shrugged and continued to eat croissants.
"The Muggle school taught me a lot." Severus said, "They are not entirely without merit."
"Can the cruise ship be driven by diesel?" Pomona asked. She remembers the scene in the engine room of the Titanic, how many strong men were shoveling coal, and the scene should be the same as when rowing with oars in Venice before.
"No." Severus shook his head, "I remember it was a heavy sulfur oil."
"Are there any harm besides emitting carbon dioxide?"
"Sulfur discharge will cause acid rain, and even if it is treated, it will produce sulfuric acid. The waste water generated before being diluted by seawater and neutralized is corrosive. Many buildings in Venice use marble, and the main component is calcium carbonate, that kind of acidic waste water. Will corrode them."
"Merlin's beard."
"Cruise travel is characterized by low prices. In order to make a profit, the cruise company will not use oil well. The waste generated by cruise ships is often dumped in the sea illegally. Last night, those people were planning to organize a parade to prevent large cruise ships from entering the lagoon."
"Do you think it is feasible?"
"This is not just about the interests of Venice. Those ships will dock at ports on the mainland and travel to Veneto, Verona, and other places. If they don't let the cruise ship enter the lagoon, they will suffer a lot of losses."
"So impossible?"
Severus spreads his hands "Developing banking is a way. Do you think the little monster you met in the bar that day will play finance?"
Pomona has nothing to say.
"The ecosystem of the lagoon is too weak, cruise ships will destroy it, but tourists still feel that cruise tourism is environmentally friendly, and the mayor is still vigorously developing tourism. It is very difficult for him to be re-elected."
At this moment, Monica and Gianluca appeared next to the Napoleon Wing, which made it hard for Pomona not to doubt that they were not spending the night together.
"Guess what he is here for?" Pomona asked.
"We're lucky." Severus smiled maliciously, the most evil kind of "Today we have big money masters to rely on."
The innocent and kind Hefpaff didn't know what the evil Slytherin had made.
"We are on a honeymoon, dear, follow us, they can also date." Severus looked at Gianluca, his eyes seemed to glow, "I can use him to interrupt Monica's work and drive him away at any time."
"Will he submit to it so easily?"
The old bat smiled sinisterly.
"He is not the Redeemer Harry Potter, of course I have the right to expel him."
