Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

When they are in adolescence, many people always think that their parents do not understand them and that their parents' ideas cannot keep up with the pace of the times represented by themselves. In fact, most parents are like a mirror in their hearts. They have also been through that age. They know what their children are thinking, but they have different ways of dealing with it.

Since the summer, Lao Ma has seen all the changes in his son, even knowing how many letters he has sent to the United States. But after preliminary investigation, he discovered that the matter was not as simple as his son imagined.

After he conducted further investigation and combined it with British intelligence for analysis, he finally came to the conclusion that made his head hurt very much.

He originally planned to tell his son about the incident in a way that would be less damaging to him, but Xiao Ma's imagination was a little too open today, so Lao Ma used this incident to vent his anger.

Seeing his son's face constantly changing between pale and red, Lao Ma took out a wooden box from the desk drawer, took out a cigar from the box, cut off the head and lit it with a match.

When the cigar in Lao Ma's hand was about to be smoked, Draco digested the news and recovered from the shock.

"When did you know about this?" Draco asked with a grimace.

"When you write to Ilvermorny for the third time." Old Ma replied, then he put out the cigar in his hand in the ashtray, and continued: "This matter will end here. From now on It's up to you how to deal with it."

Follow Lao Ma and ask: "What do you think of the current development of the situation?"

"I don't understand." Draco shook his head and said, "On the surface this is a fight between the Dark Lord and those who oppose him, but I always feel that there is something deeper inside."

"Tell me what you think." After Lao Ma said that, he got up and went to the small refrigerator in the study to take out a bottle of elderflower soda. After opening it, he poured a cup for Draco and himself.

"Since the British government started to get involved, I feel that the International Statute of Secrecy is gradually losing its effectiveness." Draco said.

"Yes, the International Federation of Wizards has sent people to find me and Scrimgeour respectively. They have no intention of getting involved in our dispute. They just hope that we will continue to implement the International Statute of Secrecy." Lao Ma nodded. He said, "In the past two days, there have been exchanges of fire between Death Eaters and Muggle police, and the bullets used by the Muggle police are interesting. They are probably made to target wizards."

"And the Muggle parents of Hogwarts students have recently begun to connect and raise their voices, which means that more and more Muggles are beginning to know about the existence of wizards."

"It seems that the days of the International Statute of Secrecy are numbered. As long as it opens a hole, it will collapse in an instant." Draco said, "Perhaps the first place to open the door is not the United Kingdom, but the international wizard in the east. Places beyond the control of the federation.”

"This spring, the International Federation of Wizards planned to establish a Yeti sanctuary in the Himalayas. As a result, a team of wizards they sent got lost in the snow and entered the country illegally. Later, they clashed with the border guards and were eventually arrested. Arrested." Lao Ma said after taking a sip of soda. "At that time, the International Federation of Wizards entrusted the French Ministry of Magic to negotiate with them. As a result, France was caught in the middle. Then the two countries simply joined forces to fool the international wizards. The Federation, while pretending to sentence the wizards who entered the country illegally to life imprisonment, pretended to argue with the other party. In the end, all those wizards were sentenced to three years of labor reform for illegal entry and obstruction of official duties. Now they are planting trees in a desert called Mu Us. .”

"During this negotiation, the representatives of the French Ministry of Magic vaguely noticed during daily chats that the wizards there will make a big move next year. This move will be so big that the wizards there will officially appear collectively in the sight of Muggles. among.”

"So in order to prepare for the new era, I plan to send you to the United States. You need to see more about all aspects of the world.

Prepare for the future of the Malfoy family. "

After his father finished speaking, Draco picked up the soda in front of him and drank while digesting what his father said.

"Father, do you have any plans for the future?" Draco asked after putting down the cup, "Why should I study Muggle law and economics?"

At this time, Lao Ma straightened his back, leaned forward, put his hands on the table, and said seriously to his son: "If the International Statute of Secrecy expires, I plan to establish a political party to represent the interests of wizards."

Draco had learned about political parties in the Muggle world in Muggle studies classes, so he was frightened by his father's plan.

Draco can guarantee that among the wizards in Europe, there are definitely only a very small number of people who have his father's ideas.

"Is this possible?" Draco asked uncertainly. He felt that his father's plan was too crazy. "Will Muggles accept the rule of wizards?"

"So you have to go to the Muggle world, let go of the unnecessary pride of pure-blood wizards, see more, learn more, think more, and see what Muggles want that wizards can give them." Lao Ma said to The son said, "As long as we can give them enough benefits, they will support us."

"More than nine hundred years ago, after William I was crowned King of England, he gave our ancestor Armand Malfoy the land in Wiltshire to thank Armand for handling gray matters for him. As long as he People find that wizards are useful to them, and they will not be stingy with their votes."

"In the Muggle world, economic development always comes first, and they have a mature legal system, but both of these are unknown to us wizards."

"With these two aspects of knowledge, we can know how to make the Muggles' wallets bulge and the capitalists' coffers full; only then can we master the rules of the Muggle world and know how to act according to their rules. game and then find vulnerabilities that we can use to our advantage.”

Seeing his father's excitement, Draco knew that he would not be able to run away from his trip to the United States next year.

Moreover, he also discovered that the basis of his father's plan was that the Dark Lord was completely finished. Otherwise, as long as the Dark Lord was still there, there would be no conditions for executing this plan.

Thinking of this, Draco broke out in a cold sweat. If his father's idea was discovered by the Dark Lord, the only thing waiting for the Malfoy family would be Nagini's breakfast, lunch and dinner.
