Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 446: Halloween Eve (Happy Holidays! Fat chickens!)

Time just passed slowly bit by bit.

As expected by Dumbledore, Elena's daily schedule is finally full. She may be the busiest person in the entire school, even harder than most professors.

In addition to completing the daily courses, she also needs to take into account the normal operation of the weekly "New Singing Contrast", the adjustment of Hogwarts [potato currency market], the small cooking class in various colleges, and the Tuesday Quidditch training for three nights ...

So, when October slipped inadvertently from people ’s fingertips, Dumbledore suddenly realized that after Elena actually spent a real month in Hogwarts calmly, the old man ’s first reaction was to feel incredible .

For Elena, this castle has gradually become a home.

This is different from the feeling in the orphanage at Loch Lomond. She doesn't have to think too much about things far, she just has to cook happily and master the magical knowledge a little bit, which is already very interesting.

As for the farther and more ambitious things, Dumbledore and Grindelwald are in control and execution.

With the round-faced fat chicken running, the tentacles of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, or more accurately, the "Three Generations of the Dark Lord" have spread to various fields in Europe, and the invisible web is spreading in the non-magic world. Of continental Europe.

The emergence of Grindelwald complemented the most critical link in Elena ’s plan. The decades-long first-generation wizarding war left a deep-rooted while traumatizing the entire European magic world. , Imprint that is hard to erase.

And every former saint is every node that constitutes the network-there is no command, just to restore contact, notify them that there will be a drastic change, and hope that they can respond well in advance.

Silently, a magic transmission line capable of transporting large-scale materials and personnel has been constructed, although most people do not know the purpose of this magic transportation line that runs through the entire European continent.

According to the current Hogwarts potato production capacity estimates, they can hoard enough food reserves for most of the Russian people to spend the winter around Christmas-and this will be Hogwarts in the future. The most powerful currency in looting.

The negotiations between the Ministry of Magic and Gu Ling Pavilion seem to be at an impasse.

The goblins of Diagon Alley in London did not intend to use the power of wizards to defeat threats from across the ocean. Both the goodwill displayed by the Ministry of Magic and the title deeds of Hogwarts Castle both wanted to be in their hands.

Because in their assessment, the Soviet vortex is actually a particularly bad investment quagmire, those Muggles and goblins from Wall Street are likely to exhaust their energy first before harvesting-in order to snipe those American "traitors" "The goblins in Europe's Gu Ling Pavilion even started blessing the ruble, trying to use their strong capital to bring down each other."

Connelly Fudge was not a fool, at least he never looked at himself like that.

After inadvertently inquiring about the spirits and movements of the goblins, the senior officials of the Ministry of Magic quickly held a secret meeting, quickly adjusted the original plan, and repurchased Hogwarts in the name of the Ministry of Magic. Off schedule.

Although they do not have excellent financial channels like fairies, as a government agency that can directly connect to the British Prime Minister, the exchange and purchase of rubles in the official name is actually not as complicated as imagined.

Of course, everything is done without the board of directors of Albus Dumbledore and Hogwarts.

In addition to the dark tide that took place in the magic world, the only not-so-good news this month may be the collective breach of contract by multiple magazines and publications-dozens of mainstream publications including the "Prophet Daily" have found various Excuses, no longer willing to bundle with "New Singing Contrary", even paid advertising.

Gu Fei, editor-in-chief of The Daily Prophet, even came to Hogwarts personally, while expressing respect for Dumbledore, he also frankly expressed his own pains, the humble and humble tone, so that Dumbledore All wondered.

As a newspaper, Barnabas Gufe must first ensure that he can survive the increasingly fierce competition.

There is no doubt that the content and mode of "New Singing Contrast" has been ahead of all publications for more than one era. In less than half a month, Gu Fei can feel the soaring reputation of "New Singing Contrast".

Now, with the exception of a handful of extremely autistic hermits, almost all wizards in the UK are talking about this publication full of topicality and a variety of exciting content. Even their share in overseas markets has exceeded the "Prophet Daily" "-Foreign wizards do not pay attention to the news in the UK, but the love of food and animals is an attribute common to all humans.

In the face of this sudden appearance of Jianglong, most of the newspapers and magazines reacted in the first moment-trying to find a way to kill it, or everyone together hollowed out its core foundation and turned it into their own thing. .

However, as far as Gu Fei, the editor-in-chief of "Singing the Contrary", knew, in the weeks before this publication suddenly became popular, there were some speculative tabloid wizards or journalists who tried to sneak into Mr. Lovegood's home and use some "witches" Way "is seeking cooperation.

However, more than a month later, the operation of "New Singing Contrast" did not show any waves. On the contrary, many wizards who used to talk about trouble in the dark have never appeared in his "small news". Among.

Where are those who are in trouble?

What magical power does that mysterious Lovegood editor have?

What layout is hidden behind this publication, and what roles does Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic play in it?

Barnabas Gufe did n’t dare to think about it, and he did n’t dare to ask, he did n’t want to one day, like Rita Skeeter, a special correspondent for the Daily Prophet, silently disappeared suddenly. Everyone's sight.

In this way, it is absolutely not dare to resist boycotts, and it is impossible to steal the black hands secretly.

According to the agreement originally signed, obediently paying a large sum of compensation and taking the initiative to bear the consequences of the breach of contract is already the most perfect result seen by the Prophet Daily.

At least Barnabas Gufe believes that Hogwarts, where Dumbledore is based, is still a reasonable place.

And it is not just the "Prophet Daily" that makes the same decision.

In this way, in the inexplicable mood of Dumbledore, after more than a month of publicity expenses, the deposits in the Hogwarts underground vault not only did not decrease, but a lot of "liquidation penalty" came out.

Considering that there is no economic pressure at present, Elena simply opened the subscription channel of "New Singing Contrast", but temporarily set the price of each copy to a near-free price of 1 copper nut.

Even so, the huge demographic dividend from the magic world still allows the coins in the Hogwarts underground vault to grow as if they would breed on their own-after all, whether it is materials, printing costs, or labor, most of them are It is derived from the output of their own people, and even the raw materials of paper are now uniformly grown on the Hogwarts Botanical Garden.

In order to solve the "mailing channel" vacancy of mainstream newspapers such as "The Prophet", Hogwarts had to invest extra money to purchase a large number of round-faced fat chickens, some of which were raised in school towers, and more were raised in Next to Mr. Fugood ’s cabin.

Of course, these specific things, Dumbledore did not let Elena intervene.

Albus Dumbledore still remembers the phrase "Hogwarts Chicken Farm" accidentally heard from the children of the orphanage at the dining table by Loch Lomond a few months ago.

He was worried that if the little owl Elena touched those poor owls, they would become the next batch of big herring at Hogwarts Black Lake-with the students' preference for fish cooking The wild fish in the lake decreased rapidly. Last week, Hogwarts unprecedentedly put fish fry into the Black Lake and issued a temporary fishing ban.

What makes Dumbledore more at ease is that since entering October, Elena has been extraordinarily calm.

On the other hand, Hogwarts suddenly broke out with a large and small pandemic this month, perhaps because of the long-term running around the lake and the forbidden forest. A few good girls around Elena, It has always been sick.

Even Elena had sneezed several times for a few days, and the whole person was a little bit more depressed than before.

These days, apart from some complaints that Professor Sprout forbids her to go to [Hurga's Dungeon] alone, there are not too many exceptions in behavior, either staying in the library and Hermione every night Organize the manuscript, or just cook delicious food in various common rooms.

What makes the professors even more happy is that after a month of rest, Professor Binns finally recovered.

As the dedicated ghost professor returned to the [History of Magic] class, Mr. Otto, who was temporarily substituting, naturally happily quit his job and returned to the "retired cadre", occasionally helping Mr. Filch to inspect together Take a look at the castle.

………

In such a calm daily life ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ time finally came to the last day of October.

At the same time, it is also one of the most popular and popular festivals in the Western world in one year, Halloween.

Compared to Christmas, this Druid and ancient Roman festival is, to a certain extent, the most important day in the magic world-it is said that on this day, witches and ghosts are The absolute protagonist.
