Chapter 920

After the competition was over, and it would take a full month until the next one, Lockhart came to the hut again, begging Anton to write another manuscript. I plan to wait for a certain time when the heat subsides as a major issue, and raise the discussion level again.

The most important reason why he can be so confident is that all the members of the hut are shareholders of "Wizard Event News", and Anton is the one who has invested the most.

In short, he is a worker.

Compared with Dumbledore, Grindelwald and other bigwigs who gave a symbolic amount of Gold Galleon to buy less shares than Lockhart, Anton was extremely generous and broke out a small vault of Gringotts.

The golden Galleons piled up in every corner, almost blinding Lockhart's eyes.

He still remembers the scene of Anton quacking and laughing at that time, waving his big hand, and said in a bold voice, "Spend whatever you want."

In fact, the gold gallon in the small vault was originally intended to be used by Anton as start-up capital for his younger brother Luke Wood. Anton also didn't expect that Lucius Malfoy would contribute so much money to Luke Wood to open a newspaper in France with such generosity, and only asked for a small part of the distribution of proceeds to leave to his son.

Today, Rookwood has gradually developed in the direction of a publishing house and a story periodical, which happens to cooperate with Lockhart's newspaper.

In this regard, Anton has some ideas about the field of 'grey magic'.

It's just that he is more cautious in this aspect, and his energy is also being pulled by the top 100 competition, so he put it aside for the time being.

The hut was very lively today, and Lockhart couldn't get Anton's manuscript because the hut had an extremely important discussion.

——About the two issues of whether to fully implement the "Muggle Transformation Wizard" and merge it into the "Animagus Office".

Those who participated in the discussion at the meeting included the 'core members' of the hut: Anton, Anna, George, Fred, Neville, and Hannah.

And the 'companions' of the cabin: Percy, Hermione, Harry, Ron, Draco, Goyle, Crabbe, Dudley.

Unknowingly, the size of the hut grew bigger and bigger.

Lockhart looked at this scene with emotion, and was keenly aware of an extremely important message, that is, their topic was actually related to the future development of the entire wizarding world.

In such a small and inconspicuous place, such a decision that affects the times is made.

He was listening to their mature, extreme, naive, or insightful ideas, and he was also carefully observing the state of each member in this meeting.

Hannah Abbott, an unremarkable girl at the beginning, served as the recorder and moderator of the meeting.

Anna Rozier said very little, but as long as she opened her mouth, it could arouse everyone's thinking. This girl seemed to be the one who most defended Anton's own interests among the group.

Well, with Anton's personality, sometimes he doesn't care about any interests at all.

Neville Longbottom also didn't talk much, his thoughts were extremely mature and steady, and he would consider some specific operational aspects more.

George and Fred have out-of-the-box thinking and often put forward some unreliable suggestions, but those unconstrained ideas can always broaden the space for discussion.

As for these other peripheral people, Percy's opinions are more political, Harry is more radical, Hermione is more humanistic, Ron is more compromising and good at reconciling, Draco is more fighting, and Gore is always stupid. Yes yes, Crabbe sullen and silent, Dudley overthinking.

But all of this ultimately fell on Anton.

In the meeting, it seemed that Anton was making the decisions.

Sometimes Anton doesn't have any special ideas, and he will bring them up for everyone to vote on.

This is obviously an interesting observation for an emerging group.

Lockhart could even sense an emotional solidarity among the core members of the cabin, and a vague three-way divide among the outer members.

Hermione, Harry, Ron faction.

Draco, Goyle, Crabbe, and Dudley.

Percy was in a class of his own.

It's very interesting, obviously there are five Weasley brothers in this place, but each of them went to a different path.

If Anton and these friends are the future of the wizarding world, then everything in front of him seems to be the future of the wizarding world.

"I don't think it should be popularized on a large scale, at least not now. We should leave some time to observe the impact of this matter on the world."

Hermione explained her thoughts and looked left and right, "Do you still remember what happened to us in New York? Those terrible sub-wizard mercenaries were a disaster!"

"Ha~" Draco sneered, "It seems that after her own parents became wizards, our Miss Granger planned to cut off the channel for other people to become wizards. Oh, I think if this discussion is in the event Before, you were absolutely in favor of mass adoption."

"You!" Hermione glared at Draco angrily, and yelled, "I didn't!"

She panted hard, "I have no selfishness, you bastard!"

Draco whistled softly, "Who knows."

"Malfoy!" Harry looked at Draco with contempt on his face, "You are just opposing for the sake of opposing, you don't have any ideas at all, so don't come out to make trouble."

Draco shook his shoulders with a chuckle, "Who said no."

He gently combed his platinum hair with a big back, and said loudly, "I think it should be released in an orderly manner, and the quota should be reserved for some people who are willing to support us, so that we can take the opportunity expand influence!"

"Ha~" Harry sneered imitating Draco's tone just now, "full of conspiracy and calculation!"

Draco stared at him fiercely, "I think this is a mature plan, you don't understand the rules of the game at all!"

"The rules of the game?" Hermione clenched her fists, her face full of disgust, "Is it the rules of the game for your pure-blood family? I think Anton's great research results are not used to consolidate the power of your pure-blood families." use!"

Draco blinked and didn't refute, but said forcefully, "I think it's not a bad thing that the cabin has the support of a large number of pure-blood families."

"hateful……"

The conversation between these two people was obviously at an end, and other people also participated in it.

Neville sighed, "Although I don't like the topic of pure-blood families, in fact, what you do in the wizarding world, pure-blood families can never be avoided, whether it is Grindelwald, Dumbledore, or Voldemort, They all have supporters of their own pure-blood families."

Hermione looked at him in disbelief, "Neville, I didn't expect that you are also a supporter of pure blood supremacy!"

"Of course not, how can this kind of topic be either one or the other!" Neville was stupid, and couldn't figure out how to explain it for a while, his face flushed red with anxiety.

This is obviously the meaning of the hut for so many people to participate in the discussion. They will definitely encounter more problems of this kind in the future, which is very different from the tacit discussion of the original core members of the hut.

"It's like this, Hermione." Hannah inserted the quill into the small ink pot, looked up from the notepad, and looked at Hermione and the others seriously, "The pure-blood family that Neville said is the same as the one in your concept." Pure-blood families are vastly different."

She thought for a while, then spread her hands lightly, "It's not a simple blood theory."

"The main problem of pure-blood families, especially the holy twenty-eight pure-blood families, is not that they have pure blood, but that they still control the most important political resources, commercial resources, technical resources, etc. of the wizarding world. .”

This topic is the result of discussions among the members of the previous hut. We often get together and talk about everything. At that time, we began to analyze it.

"For example, the horn and tail hair of unicorns commonly used in potions, such as the heart nerves of fire dragons commonly used in magic wands, the breeding grounds and channels for these magic materials are all controlled by pure-blood families."

"For example, the craftsmanship of making wands, such as the factory of flying broomsticks..."

"After all, the population of wizards is too small, especially in every place after they are distributed around the world. In a certain country or industry, some resources will always be controlled by one or several families."

"We all agree that the magic school is an option to break through these restrictions. Our hut has also been able to break through. George Fred and the others can breed magical animals and make magic props. I can cultivate herbs and various magical plants, Anna Alchemy items can be refined, and the Animagus office headed by Neville is allowing wizards to have magical abilities not weaker than the talents of pure-blood wizards..."

"But these are the future. When we really implement something now, we have to consider the impact it will bring."

Hannah picked up the quill again and shrugged, "This is what Neville said, pure-blood families are an unavoidable topic."

Listening to her telling this, Draco looked at Hermione with some complacency, which made Hermione look a little annoyed.

Goyle also interjected at this time, "The existence of a pure-blood family doesn't have to mean messing up everything, Hermione."

Seeing Hermione looked over, his simple face was full of sincerity, "The pure-blood family that has influenced wizards for thousands of years also has the meaning of our existence. You have seen so much history of magic, you should know it better than us. Our pure-blood family has never ruled the world."

"We can help Anton do a good job of this 'Muggle-to-Wizard' thing, and we will also help the Ministry of Magic, and we will also help Muggles."

"I know you have a bad impression of our pure-blood family, but our Gower family has also produced Aurors, and won the Merlin Medal for helping Muggles."

Hermione's eyes widened in disbelief, and she turned to look at Ron and Harry in astonishment. Harry also looked surprised.

Ron nodded. "Yes, that lady was a respectable person. She later married into the Black family. Unfortunately, she died in an accident while studying magic."

The pure-blood family is just one of the small topics. The plan to promote the "Muggle-to-Wizard" thing involves all aspects are simply too complicated to be discussed in a small meeting.

Anton didn't seem to make any suggestions, he just brought up the topic and watched everyone's debate happily.

Generally, in such a situation, when the results are discussed at the end, Anton will be responsible for the technical aspect, and everything else will be thrown into the hands of those participating in the discussion.

Sometimes I am lazy, sometimes I really look forward to watching these people influence the world under their own influence.

That feeling is very cool.

Cool and crooked.
