[Comprehensive] The Wizard and the Fugitive

The contract for the Arctic Circle route was placed on the table. Blaise, Pansy, and Marcus stared at the dark red and bloody Petrovic badge imprinted on the parchment with wide eyes, as if Saw something incredible.

Before witnessing it with his own eyes, who would have imagined that the famous Petrovich family, who can only enter and never leave, would also leak benefits?

"Is this obtained with the help of Alan Schiller?" Blaise asked, while taking the contract, he carefully read the terms on it.He remembered Draco saying in Norway that Alan Schiller would help with the Petrovich family.But he thought it would take a lot of time, instead of suddenly putting the contract in front of him.

Draco tilted his head and thought for a while, then raised the corners of his mouth: "You can say that."

The engagement banquet was only two days away, and the three of Blaise were busy rushing from France to London again, so it was normal not to have heard the big news about Petrovic.Draco decided to keep his words to a minimum and let the newspapers or gossip in the wizarding world tell his friends about the destruction two days ago, so as not to deprive them of the opportunity to be frightened.

He pushed another already written letter in front of the three of them. Blaise unfolded the parchment, read it quickly, and handed it to Pansy.

"This is for Granger?" After the letter was passed to Marcus, the big Quidditch captain raised his eyebrows and stared at the first few words of Mrs. Weasley in surprise.

The specific content of Slytherin's return plan hadn't been told to him yet, but Draco and Blaise explained it again at this time.

"We need to find a place in the British wizarding world through Granger." Marcus nodded: "I understand that, but why would she help us?"

"Because the British magic community needs it." Draco pointed his index finger at the air route contract on the table, and raised the corner of his mouth: "Don't worry, she has promised me to cooperate when she was in Norway."

Blaise coughed and reminded: "She just promised to think about it."

Draco laughed, and asked indifferently, "Do you really think she will refuse?"

Blaise shrugged. "Who knows? Maybe Granger will find it too unacceptable to work with us in the end."

"Impossible." Draco said coldly: "Although I don't want to say good things for her, I have to admit that in her eyes, the British wizarding world is far more important than personal grievances."

Blaise was right. Of course Hermione didn't want to pay attention to Draco's cooperation proposal, but like Draco's judgment, it was impossible for her to refuse.

The war changed everything. At Hogwarts, although Hermione hated Slytherins, if the Slytherins didn't take the initiative to provoke her, she usually didn't want to waste her study time on irrelevant people.But when the war was over and everything was settled, when everyone (especially Harry) thought they could welcome a new life, she instead took the initiative to attack Draco and the entire Slytherin interest group behind him, especially wanting to take advantage of the situation to make them become history.

The wealth of the British wizarding world has been in the hands of Slytherins for too long, so long that most wizards have become accustomed to this imbalance. Seeing that Slytherins enjoy the best resources, they don't want to change at all.She mentioned her thoughts to Ron, but Ron didn't care at all, because "Slytherin has always been rich anyway".He simply attributed the poverty of the Weasley family to the fact that there were too many children, and thought that the rapidly increasing Galleons of families like Malfoy and Black all came from inheritance.

It was too troublesome to explain the labor theory of value to a pure-blood wizard, so Hermione decided to find a way to break the centuries-old tradition in the British wizarding world, and let the Slytherins spit out the gold galgalon that belonged to all British wizards.

However, there is no need for her to do anything. After the war, the hatred of British wizards has already defeated Slytherin. The young masters and ladies who once lived at the top of the pyramid fled everywhere. The British wizarding world finally returned to the hands of all wizards, but the problem is still there. One after another.

Even if Slytherin fled, he did not forget to protect the family wealth. In their eyes, the gold was the "hard money" accumulated by their ancestors, and it did not belong to the British wizarding world.

When a large number of Galleons were transferred or frozen, and the Slytherins who were keen to make money and spend money collectively ran away, the life of the British wizarding world began to be sad, and the economic crisis came soon. This is the first time that the wizards who have not changed have experienced such a situation, and they are completely at a loss.

Under such circumstances, Draco appeared with a lucrative airline and hundreds of jobs accompanying it. Even if Hermione wanted to refuse him, she couldn't refuse the chip in his hand.

The British wizarding community desperately needs money.

But just promise Draco like that?Just a few months later, we are about to welcome the return of the Slytherins?

No, if the British wizarding world is restored to its former state like this, what is their short-lived victory before!A ridiculous farce?

After her return from Norway, Hermione had often been lost in thought in her Ministry of Magic office.Draco seemed to know her concerns. Although he wrote the letter, he didn't send it for a long time.The letter was thrown on the shelf so casually, and for several days in a row, he and William moved it here and there when looking for books.

"You might as well post it earlier." Deni couldn't help suggesting when he came to No. 220 again.

Draco smiled: "Not yet."

This sentence again!Deni frowned with a headache, deeply doubting whether Draco was teasing him: "When is the right time?"

"When she is no longer wary of me"

"Oh?" Denis, who had heard a little about the British wizarding world, raised an eyebrow: "It's not that easy."

"Yeah, so the success of the plan depends entirely on your performance." Draco said as he patted a document on Deni's chest: "Open it and have a look."

Deni raised his eyebrows and stared at the big black and bold title of the document: "Merlin Group invests in Diagon Alley? When was this decided?"

"Now." Draco raised the corners of his mouth and smiled like a little fox: "I guess, Granger is already having a headache to restrain Slytherin. In order to save time, I thought of one for her."

……

Because of sufficient mineral support, the Merlin Group, which started with jewelry and developed into the luxury goods industry, has a good momentum. There are too many people who want to invest in it to get a share of the pie. It is common for the Merlin Group to be on the local news.

Hermione, who rarely left the wizarding world, first heard about the company on the streets of London after making an appointment with Draco for the first meeting in London.The huge electronic screen played Deni's interview at the crossroads, and the handsome face that often appeared in London's major sex scenes aroused many people's discussions.Huddled among the crowd waiting for the green light, Hermione raised her head and casually glanced at the news. In just a moment, she keenly noticed a familiar little thing in the corner of the camera.

No Muggle cared what that thing was for, but she knew it right away, it was a wand!Hermione carefully looked at Deni's strange face, and his awkward Italian accent quickly and logically became evidence of being a foreign wizard.

A foreign wizard who runs a company in the Muggle world.Hermione looked at Deni's lazy, casual smile on the screen, and suddenly had a brilliant idea.She simply ignored the agreement with Draco and hurriedly hid in the alley and Apparated back to the Ministry of Magic.

……

after an hour.

In the Office of the Director of the Department of Legal Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, the Gryffindor trio rarely get together during working hours. As Oro, Harry and Ron are full of restlessness, obviously not used to sitting in the office.

Hermione pushed a plan in front of the two of them. Ron picked it up, casually flipped through a few pages, and put it back. He said helplessly, "Just tell me, you know, I haven't read so many words since graduation. Something." Harry nodded in agreement beside him, but considering Hermione's already ugly face, he could only move slightly secretly.

"Okay," Hermione glared at the two, compromised, "This is a cooperation plan."

Harry blinked: "Cooperation? With whom?"

"If you're willing to spend some time, it's all written in here!" Hermione looked at him dissatisfied, and explained: "I just found out today that an Italian wizard opened a company in London - the Merlin Group."

Harry often wandered around London, so he knew the Merlin Group long ago, and was full of doubts about the name. Harry opened his mouth, and before he could say a word, he was secretly held down by Ron.

Stay out of trouble!Ron lip-synced to him, and when he saw Hermione looking at him, he immediately sat upright, pretending nothing happened, and raised his hand to ask seriously: "What are we going to cooperate with?"

Hermione couldn't help but rolled her eyes: "Merlin! Didn't you realize that the magic world needs capital injection?"

"Funds... what?" Ron and Harry looked at her innocently at the same time, like two good students waiting for their teacher to clarify their doubts.

Hermione raised her forehead with a headache: "Forget it, I'll take care of this, just leave it alone."
