Hogwarts behind-the-scenes big boss

Old Foley winked at Moriarty: "I met you from afar in Diagon Alley two years ago, and Mr. Lockhart also talked about you. You know, he always said that you were his

The greatest treasure ever discovered.”

As he spoke, he walked over to Soldaya and sat down, giving Moriarty a kind smile.

The monopoly of the book industry has given the Foley family a transcendent status. It seems that as long as there are no problems within the Foley family, the family will be safe forever. However, the family is sparsely populated, and the only heir died in the First Wizarding War, leaving the family alone and widowed.

Old Foley.

Seeing the rise of Moriarty, Old Foley wanted to join him. After all, with Lockhart's relationship, Moriarty would more or less accept him - or so Old Foley thought.

Old Foley's idea played into Moriarty's hands, and the two looked at each other tacitly, smiling with satisfaction at the same time.

"We meet again, Mr. Moriarty." Garrick Ollivander, the representative of the Ollivander family, sat down next to Old Foley and stared at Moriarty unblinkingly, "Both of you.

Years have passed, how comfortable is your wand?"

"It is my close comrade." Moriarty put the sleigh wand on the table and said to Ollivander: "I find that wizards always spend too much unnecessary time when pulling out their wands.

, doing so will undoubtedly affect the casting speed! Have you ever considered this issue?"

Ollivander shook his head: "Every wand I make is the lightest, and the wizard can pull out the wand in the fastest way."

"I'm not talking about the wand itself, but an alchemical prop related to the wand - the wand set equipment." Moriarty threw out a series of obscure words: "The ingredients of the set are very simple, just use the

The shape of the wand is made of wood corresponding to the wand wood, with mithril as the main structure, magic materials that can conduct magic as the core, and more than ten magic effects such as permanent solidification spells and large memory spells, and most importantly, a trace of alchemy.

technical knowledge.

This can greatly reduce the time required to pull out the wand. After equipping the wand with a wand suit, the time it takes for the wizard to pull out the wand may only take two seconds, or even less."

Ollivander took out a piece of parchment and a quill, and wrote down everything Moriarty said.

He frowned and looked at it, and said: "I admit that this is a Merlin-like idea! Do you know that my ancestors also thought about making a suit for the wand. This suit can not only protect the wand, but also speed up the drawing of the wand.

The speed, but always unable to achieve the desired speed, do you know why?"

"Because of the cost of making a wand equipment." Moriarty nodded slightly in understanding, then looked around at the major purebloods, and said slowly: "The cost is divided into economic cost and knowledge cost. The economic cost is actually easy to solve.

Is it still a big deal if it can be solved with Galleons?

The cost of knowledge is the biggest obstacle. Making a wand equipment requires at least a master of wandology, a professor who is proficient in magic, a scholar who is familiar with all major magic materials, and the most important thing is alchemy - this

The art is often closely related to runes and Latin runes, so it is difficult to find a suitable alchemy master."

Ollivander agreed: "For centuries, master alchemists have been a scarce resource."

"Now there is an opportunity," Moriarty looked at him: "Nico Flamel will come to Hogwarts next school year."

"Is the source reliable?" Lucius raised his eyebrows. The news that Nico Flamel was coming to Hogwarts to teach spread throughout the world, but he was the director of Hogwarts. How could he not know?

"Reliable, I guarantee the reputation of Slytherin, Nico Flamel will definitely come. And Mr. Lucius, you should know that your status as school director is of no use to Nico Flamel, so in this case

In fact, you don’t need to worry about it.”

This time, Moriarty did not give any face to Lucius. The latter narrowed his eyes and did not speak. Moriarty continued to express his thoughts: "After Nico Flamel arrived, the biggest obstacle was solved.

Then among the few people needed to make the wand set, I think Mr. Ollivander——"

Moriarty nodded to the old man selling the wand.

"——Horace Mr. Slughorn? Perhaps I should call you professor? I remember that you were the teacher of Professor Snape, the current head of Slytherin House."

Moriarty looked at the fat wizard who had rarely spoken since attending the banquet. At this moment, he was leaning on the chair with a big belly, taking small sips of wine.

"Your Slug Club is famous, when will you invite me?"

"Cough cough cough, cough cough!" Horace choked, his face turned red and his neck was thick from coughing, and he waved his hands to Moriarty. Are you kidding? His slug club is just a small fish pond. There is no room for Moiarty.

Riati, the real dragon.

From the moment he met Moriarty, Horace tried his best to avoid contact with Moriarty. Years of experience told him that Moriarty would be either the Dark Lord or the White Devil in the future. For such a person, Horace would only

He wanted to stay away from him - he had already made a mistake regarding Tom Riddle, and now he was in contact with Dumbledore - he didn't want to stir up trouble.

Unexpectedly, Moriarty paid attention to him!

"Speaking of Sif," Horace cleared his throat, "He is an excellent potion master. I believe he knows the materials needed to make the wand set and will never make mistakes. Why not

Should this task be given to him? I mean, both Snape and Nico Flamel are professors at Hogwarts."

"No, no, no, you can't confuse Hogwarts with us!" Moriarty knocked on the table: "This is the purest and most noble pure-blood gathering in Britain! It's not the principal's office at Hogwarts. The wand set is

My vision is that it is a pure-blood family's industry, and it can only be completed by us."

After hearing these words, Fudge's expression gradually returned to normal. Now he is most afraid of what Hogwarts will accomplish, because everyone knows that Hogwarts is almost Dumbledore's hall of fame.

"Mr. Ollivander provides the wood materials for the wand set, Mr. Horace provides the main structure and the materials for guiding magic, and I personally apply the magical effects to the wand set! Nico Flamel provides the alchemy!" Moriarty

Talking freely: "This is my idea: three pure-blood families will take the lead, and the twelve school directors will contact the Ministry of Magic in the name of Hogwarts to provide wand sets for the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic!"

The purebloods were whispering among themselves. They did not expect that Moriarty planned to link the wand set with the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic.

Anything related to the Ministry of Magic is profitable!

Fudge stood up and said, "Where's Dumbledore? Wouldn't Dumbledore object to you using the name of Hogwarts?"

The purebloods glanced at Fudge as if they were fools. Fudge quickly understood why - if the Minister of Magic was Dumbledore, Dumbledore would naturally not object.

In the final analysis, Moriarty's plan has nothing to do with Fudge and Dumbledore, but everything to do with the Minister of Magic!

He is waiting for Fudge here!

As a candidate for the Minister of Magic who is favored by major purebloods, Fudge is naturally not a fool. He can see that after equipping Aurors with wand suits, the reputation of the British Ministry of Magic will quickly rise to the top.

The premise is that the Minister of Magic can give Moriarty a sufficiently generous reward.

Fudge secretly looked at the purebloods. He felt that these people had turned into hungry wolves, eager to bite a piece of meat from him.

The purebloods on Lucius' side were very satisfied with Moriarty's proposal. They just wanted to say: "Is there such a good thing?"

The purebloods on Arthur's side have pale faces, and they support Dumbledore more than Fudge.

Augusta questioned: "Mr. Moriarty, how can you guarantee that Nico Flamel will provide alchemical knowledge for the wand set?"

"Because he is Nico Flamel, and I am Moriarty!" Moriarty smiled confidently and stopped answering.

Ollivander smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. If you can't beat us, we will give some benefits to Nico Flamel."

"That's easy to say." Lucius snorted: "I will not give up the interests of the Malfoy family to a Frenchman!"

The purebloods nodded, but Moriarty said: "If it were me, I would hand over the agency rights of the wand set to Nico Flamel. Of course, this old man will definitely not want it, but he may pass it on

To Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! That’s exactly the joint education plan I’m going to propose next!”

"Joint education plan?" the twelve school directors said in unison.

"As we all know, Hogwarts, Durmstrang, and Beauxbatons are the three top magic schools in Europe.

Then in the world, there is Ilvermorny School of Magic in the United States, Kodos Doriz School of Magic in Russia, Vagadu School of Magic in India, Magic Institute in Japan, and Castrobushe School of Magic in Brazil.

As the most prestigious Hogwarts in the world, I think the school directors should take a longer-term view."

Moriarty leaned back in his chair, picked up his glass and took a sip.
