Hogwarts card wizard

"I think we'd better get down to business! It's not too late to eat food later! What do you think, Albus!"

Kevin wanted to laugh, he could feel Cornelius Fudge absolutely gritting his teeth when he said that.

And the fact is indeed as Kevin thought, Dumbledore just let Cornelius Fudge speak out for himself.

Cornelius Fudge is also a genius, how could he not understand the mind of the old guy in front of him, so he planned to point it out directly.

Dumbledore smiled and said, "Of course! Please!"

Cornelius Fudge glanced at him speechlessly, and then said to Kevin: "Ali, I think you are curious about why we came to you?"

Kevin said: "Indeed! I don't think I have done anything illegal recently! Even if I did, I don't need you, Mr. Minister, to come here in person."

"No! Of course not!" Cornelius Fudge immediately denied, and said, "Do you know about the Quidditch World Cup?"

"Ok?"

The doubts in Kevin's heart deepened. What does the Quidditch World Cup have to do with him?

"Of course! This is a big event, a grand event! In fact, my friends and I are already going to watch it live! May I take the liberty to ask the time and place?" Kevin said along the way.

Cornelius Fudge said: "This is the problem. The site has been found and the relevant arrangements have been put in place, but..."

Cornelius Fudge paused, and by then Kevin had understood, understood why he was looking for him.

Kevin just didn't answer, and Cornelius Fudge could only continue: "But there is a problem with funding, and the Ministry is a bit stretched in terms of funding due to recent events..."

Cornelius Fudge couldn't go on talking anymore, it was absolutely impossible for his majestic Minister of Magic to reach out for money like a beggar!

As the old saying goes, people are old and smart. Although Dumbledore was unhappy about being pulled here, he still had to give him the face he deserved.

So he took Fudge's words and said: "Minister Fudge has heard about the Aili family, so he wants to ask if you can sponsor it?"

"Sure enough!" Kevin thought in his heart.

But with a puzzled expression on his face, he asked: "If this is the order of the professor...and Mr. Minister, I will do it even if I sell everything. But can I ask a question, the rich family in the wizarding world There are many people here, why did they find me?"

Kevin's words have two meanings.

[-]. Do you think that I am young and have no parents or elders to play the autumn wind?

[-]. I can pay the money, but I have to give a reason.

When Kevin uttered the phrase "smashing the pot and selling the iron", the two people on the opposite side understood the meaning of the words, but their expressions were not the same.

Dumbledore was still smiling, with appreciation in his smile.

Cornelius Fudge was helpless.

This kid in front of him really doesn't look like a child. What he said has completely risen to the entry level of a politician.There is something in the words, but people can't find the meaning to refute.

Dumbledore still had no intention of opening his mouth, so Cornelius Fudge had to speak by himself. He made a long speech, but it was almost nonsense to Kevin's ears, and it was summed up in one sentence.

Those who can afford it don’t want to, and those who want to afford it can’t afford it. There are those who can and are willing to pay, but they don’t have enough money!

In fact, it is not surprising that there is such a phenomenon, as long as one understands the history of the pure-blood family, it is easy to understand.

Dumbledore once told me about Kevin's pure-blooded family, and later Kevin himself inquired about this information.

The concept of pure blood was proposed by Salazar Slytherin, which refers to a wizard or wizard family with pure or almost pure wizard blood. In the second grade, Dumbledore told Kevin that if even in the ancient The wizarding family does not meet this condition.Because going back to the roots, if the ancestors of a wizarding family did not have Muggle parents or married Muggles, the family would cease to exist at all.

Later, a wizard named Cantanclus Knott compiled the book "The List of Pure Bloods", which recorded 28 so-called pure blood families.

That is, the "Holy 28 Pure-Blood Families" that have been handed down to this day, including Sirius' family, the Black family, and Ron's family, the Weasley family.

However, the so-called "Holy 28 Clans" are not necessarily worthy of the name. One of them, the Ollivander family, has a history of marriage with Muggles, and the Weasley family does not reject Muggles. There are also many families.

And according to this statement, the Potter family should also be one of the pure blood, but the so-called 28 families did not include the Potter family.Therefore, those who like this "sacred title" regard it as an affirmation, and those who don't like it express regret and dissatisfaction with the selection of their own family.

However, one thing is true about these pure-blood families, that is, the history of these families is really long, and with a long history, they will naturally accumulate considerable wealth.However, there are two points to say in this statement. There are rich people, and naturally there are poor ones.

Like the Weasley family.

In fact, many pure-blood families only look glamorous on the outside, without a stable source of income. The wealth of the ancestors alone should be squandered even if it is gold and silver.

Even if there is a rich man like the Malfoy family, they can't stand being plucked.

It also caused the situation that Kevin summarized before, so there is no rich in the wizarding world?

Yes, but the hole is too big.Instead of trying your best to convince a group of sheep, it is better to just convince a fat sheep!

It's really hard to find people in the wizarding world who are richer than the Eli family.

But Kevin didn't understand one thing.The British Ministry of Magic can't be said to be filthy rich, but there is definitely no shortage of Galleons. Coupled with "sponsorship" such as the Malfoy family, how could it be short of money?How big is this hole?

Kevin didn't ask because he knew Fudge wouldn't tell him.

When Cornelius Fudge said the plan of "fighting the autumn wind", Kevin didn't talk nonsense, and directly asked for the required number.

After careful consideration, Kevin said: "Mr. Minister, I think you understand that the Eli family is not a wizarding family. Almost all of our funds are invested in the Muggle world, and I cannot embezzle such a large amount. "

The Eli family is indeed rich, but most of it is put in the operation of various companies.Although Kevin is the owner of these banknotes, the management personnel will never agree if a large amount of funds are used. After all, he still has actual management rights now.

Cornelius Fudge was able to come over to "ask for the bill" and naturally found out about Kevin, and said, "Of course, I understand this! But... I don't think this is a problem, is it?"

You must know that Kevin still has a gold mountain in the basement of Gringotts, so it is no problem for the money to "cover" the remaining gap.

Kevin laughed, and thought: "Sure enough, the official is easy to handle. It seems that this guy has checked me out!"

"I can agree!" Kevin said, but before Fudge could speak, Kevin said immediately, "But I have conditions!"

Cornelius Fudge frowned and asked, "Oh! What conditions?"

Before coming, Fudge expected two situations, one, being rejected.Second, a happy promise.There was no third scenario in his anticipation.

Because in his eyes, Kevin is a student, a child, but he didn't realize that this student is not only not like a child, but also like a businessman who will detour and bargain.

Kevin seemed to see what Fudge was thinking, smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Minister! I'm just a student, so naturally I won't ask for political conditions. My conditions are very simple. If you agree, I may even You can add some funds!"
