Harry Potter and Shafik

Chapter 50 Visiting Abroad
The final exam is over.Hilbert and the others had another wonderful semester.

Lingxu has been a little worried these days.In front of him was a Muggle newspaper.Seeing that the time is 1993, is he planning to keep up with the times?Or leave a way out for your two apprentices (Hilbert, Daphne)
灵虚道人穿越的时间是2019年的2月24日。在那个年代。互联网时代已经登峰造极。而互联网开始的时间是互联网诞生于20世纪60年代末，90年代以后风靡全球。1994年，中国正式接入互联网。也正是那个不同寻常的十年。标志着现在很大多数世界500强公司的诞生。

Such as Alibaba (1999) Facebook (2004) in that era………

Although, Hilbert will not only inherit his father's title of Duke of England in the future, but also take care of his power in the magical world.He can't do anything he wants if he doesn't have strong financial backing.The graduation certificate and learning experience of the magic school are no different from a piece of waste paper in the entire Muggle world.

Besides, the future of the world belongs to Muggles.Rather than wasting a full seven years studying skill-based courses such as spells, potions, transfiguration, etc., if he is a Taoist Lingxu, he would rather use these precious time to learn computer programming or corporate strategy, at least These can ensure that there is no worry about food and clothing for decades to come.After all, most sane people would choose the latter.Magic requires ability, and Muggle-born students are rare.But they cannot live in the wizarding world all their lives.

"Mystery and the unknown, only create distance, not class."

The only thing that can divide human beings, an innate social creature, into two worlds is, in the final analysis, only one—poverty!
Like broomsticks.If muggles would produce too.Then they use hundreds of thousands of pipelines a day.And now the broomstick production factories of the magicians are completely handmade.There are only a dozen of them in one day.In terms of transportation, it is precisely because of the influence of Muggles.The magicians used the train as a means of getting to school.

Because of poverty, the magicians closed their doors to the outside world.No contact with the outside world directly led to Voldemort's ideology-wizards rule Muggles.

And Gellert realized this too.He wanted to get along with Muggles, but was too hasty and used force.If you want wizards to coexist peacefully with Muggles, you must first contact the Muggle world.

Therefore, Taoist Lingxu exchanged 15 pounds from Gringotts.I plan to take leave and go to the United States to convert it into US dollars, which is [-] US dollars, and go to Apple, Microsoft... to buy a large number of stocks.Wait until the Internet age comes.Like Facebook stock.It was worth a few thousand dollars at the beginning, but now it has risen to two hundred million dollars.Issued as Hilbert and Daphne.Leave them both a large fortune.It's my last gift.

Here, Hilbert asked whether he would participate in the Quidditch World Cup and the Triwizard Tournament because his father was going abroad to visit Beauxbaton and Durmstrang.Minister Fudge received the support of a large number of voters because of the injustice of Sirius Black.He casually granted Brian Shafik a family quota, so Hilbert took Daphne, Astoria, Draco and his own family to visit abroad with his father.Along with the newly appointed Director of the Department of Sports and Sports of the Ministry of Magic, Ludo Bagman, Hogwarts Vice-Principal Professor Minerva McGonagall, Director of the Department of International Magic Exchange and Cooperation, Barty Crouch and his assistant —Percy Weasley.This is thanks to Hilbert's mother.How could Percy quickly become Crouch's personal assistant if it wasn't for the wind blowing from Mrs.
Sirius Black recuperating at Shafik Manor.Harry would come to see him every now and then.It's a pity that Mrs. Shafiq is no longer visiting abroad with her son.

The first stop is Beauxbaton, France.

Beauxbaton School of Magic is one of the three major magic schools in Europe, and the principal is Olim Maxim.The school's coat of arms is two golden crossed wands with three stars emerging from each wand.The robes worn by the students appear to be of fine silk.I have to say that Beauxbaton's environment is better than Hogwarts!Looking around, a beautiful French-style palace is located among the magnificent mountains. Due to the heavy snowfall, it is covered with white snow all around. "It must be a sunny day, look at the red dress, it is extraordinarily enchanting".

At this time, Mrs. Beauxbaton's headmaster, Mrs. Olim Maxim, came out of the castle, followed by a slender girl. Under the winter sun, the girl seemed to be exuding a faint silver gleam. Light.Both Hilbert and Draco looked straight.He couldn't even feel Daphne pinching him hard.

"Dear Professor McGonagall, welcome to Beauxbatons." Madam Maxim said.

"Mrs. Maxim, I hope you are well. Thank you very much for your invitation. Principal Dumbledore was unable to come due to something, and he asked me to convey his greetings to you." Professor McGonagall said.

After a simple greeting, Madam Maxim communicated with the three directors of the Ministry of Magic again. "This is Fleur Delacour. She will lead you to visit Beauxbaton's campus in the next few days." Mrs. Maxim introduced Fleur to the students behind.

"Hi, Miss Delacour. I'm Daphne Greengrass." Daphne, who was not bewitched by Fleur, said on behalf of other students who were already infatuated.

After the four exchanged pleasantries, Madame Maxime and Furong led a group of people to Beauxbaton Castle.

Beauxbaton Castle should have been surrounded by a beautiful garden, but it has now been buried in thick snow.

The magic fountain in front of the castle is still working regardless of the heavy snow.

into the auditorium.After Madam Maxim entered the cafeteria, Beauxbaton's students stood up as soon as they saw their principal appear.After all the guests sat down, the chairman sat down.Madame Maxime made a toast in French.Beauxbaton's students sat down together after Madame Maxime sat down.I have to admire Beauxbaton's discipline.Can throw Hogwarts a Champs Elysees.If the two schools don't include the headmaster, Hogwarts will definitely lose more than win if they go to war.Of course, the large number of Beauxbatons is also an important factor.

On the teaching bench, Hilbert saw a very old man with a white beard longer than Dumbledore.You don't even need to think about who it is—Nicole May, professor of alchemy at Beauxbatons.

Unexpectedly, he was still alive.

French cuisine is worthy of being one of the world's famous cuisines. Even Beauxbaton's cafeteria dishes are far ahead of the Eiffel Tower in the Hogwarts cafeteria. Hilbert and the others are sitting in the student seats, chatting with several Beauxbatons students from time to time. communicating.Hilbert asked if the old man with the white beard in the student-teacher's seat next to him was Nicolas?When you get an affirmative answer.Hilbert calmly took a bite of the steak.At this time, a Soviet girl came over and offered a glass of wine to Draco and Hilbert.And introduced herself. She turned out to be the daughter of Vladimir Mikhail Ostrovsky, the newly appointed Minister of Magic of Russia.

"You and that Nikolai Ostrovsky!" Draco exclaimed.

"He's my uncle, unfortunately he's a Squib in your terms. My name is Olivia Pimenova Ostrovsky."

"Hello, Miss Ostrovsky. I'm Hilbert Shafik."

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Shafik, I heard you have four Parseltongues?" Olivia said in unclear English.

"Yes." Hilbert said directly in French. (I studied French for half a month before coming here.)
"Do you have time to show it?"

"Yes, but I want to ask, why when I saw Mademoiselle Delacour, I seemed to..."

"Oh, heh. She's a quarter Veela."

"No wonder." Hilbert chatted more happily.He didn't feel the vinegar jar that was about to explode behind him at all.
