Hogwarts Homecoming

When Amosta raised his hand, everyone at the conference table immediately fell silent, as if the anger they had just shown was just a joke.

The marchers looked at Mr. Brain imploringly.

Although the target of their previous verbal attacks also included the most powerful wizard in contemporary times, now, they are more eager for Mr. Blaine to be the 'master of the family' for them!

Reporters, onlookers, employees of the Ministry of Magic and several young wizards present.

All eyes were focused on Amosta.

This different kind of pressure, to a certain extent, is even heavier than fighting against Voldemort!

Amosta's eyes were fixed on Narcissa's face, and he could feel the tension and panic in this woman's heart.

"Let me confirm with you first that at present, the only difficulties facing the resumption of work in the workshop, which we must achieve as soon as possible, are the ones you just mentioned, right?"

Amosta oppressed everyone with his gaze and made his voice heard clearly.

"Can I understand that if the problems just mentioned can be properly resolved, resuming production and work will not be a problem?"

Gulu——

Narcissa's cold white throat twitched and she nodded hesitantly. When other participants saw the Malfoy family's stance, they no longer hesitated.

The so-called law does not blame everyone.

If we need to stop work, we should stop working together, and if we need to reopen the door, we should also stop working together.

Neither the Ministry of Magic nor the mysterious man will kill everyone!

"very good--"

Seeing everyone expressing their opinions, Amosta nodded with satisfaction.

Benefit, Benefit -

Knocking his fingers on the table, Amosta said calmly,

"Let's talk about the fact that the world's magical civilization is pessimistic about the turbulent situation in the British wizarding community recovering in the short term.

Regarding the domestic disputes and turmoil, I cannot promise you, nor can I promise the world's magical civilization, how long it will take to calm down. Is it a few months, or will it last for many years like last time?

But no matter what, the basic lives of the people in this country still need to be guaranteed. Whether they are participating producers or consumers, they need the continued output of all materials closely related to life. No one can tolerate an ounce of floo powder. A high price for a silver coin. "

Several of the attendees squirmed uncomfortably.

The Floo Bang company that produces Floo powder is too big to be owned by just one company.

"The Ministry of Magic is also obliged to ensure that these materials can guarantee the most basic supply, so--"

Amosta said calmly,

"You don't need to worry about production orders. Next, the Ministry of Magic will set up an International Trade Department, which will directly place orders for the workshops you run."

Narcissa's eyes narrowed.

The Ministry of Magic and the International Trade Department place orders directly with the workshop?

What’s next?

The Ministry of Magic will definitely not hoard supplies. They will take them to the market and sell them at a relatively reasonable price to stabilize the market.

Narcissa's heart moved slightly,

"At what price will the Ministry of Magic purchase the products produced by each workshop?"

"Based on the average price of your shipments to the domestic terminal market in the past five years."

Amosta said with a smile and Narcissa fell silent.

The workshop will not lose money by doing this business, but the Ministry of Magic will definitely make a profit!

Equivalently, the Ministry of Magic became the agent of various workshops and obtained the sole authorization.

There is a shortage of supplies in the market. The Ministry of Magic does not have to worry about the supplies in hand being unable to be sold. The Ministry can dynamically adjust the order volume according to market demand.

Both parties know that the turbulent situation does have an impact on sales, but the lack of orders is a complete lie!

The Ministry does not need to predict the market at all. Many terminal sales companies at home and abroad will directly come to the Ministry of Magic to place orders. All the Ministry of Magic needs to do is transfer the orders to the workshops.

Cunning and scary!

Narcissa's eyes flashed, and she looked fearfully at Amosta Brain, who was smiling and silent.

This move was tantamount to directly exposing their lies, and by the way, it also won huge benefits for the ministry, and greatly strengthened the ministry's right to speak.

Because if all the orders for the workshop come from the Ministry of Magic, it undoubtedly means that the Ministry of Magic can 100% determine their production share, that is, the efficiency!

It would be fine if this was a short-term policy during the war.

But if this production model continues after the war is over, it will be equivalent to the Ministry of Magic taking control of all the workshops under their name without any bloodshed!

Many people blushed. Obviously, they all saw the trap behind Brian's proposal!

"What a wonderful proposal you have, Mr. Blaine--"

After a few rapid breaths, Narcissa calmed down, her mouth tightened,

"But I have a doubt, I don't know-"

"Please, Mrs. Malfoy-"

Amosta said personably.

"This plan does have certain possibilities, but with all due respect——"

Narcissa took a breath,

"This policy of the Ministry of Magic seems to be aimed at stabilizing the domestic market, but you should know that this can only ensure that the workshops we operate maintain the most basic activity. There is no vast foreign market. Many workshops, including the Malfoy family, have Severe shrinkage is inevitable, which means"

Narcissa glanced at the waiting civilians behind Brian,

"We still need to lay off people on a large scale to ensure that we can make small profits."

"Oh, Mrs. Malfoy, you are so pessimistic-"

The smile on Amosta's face grew wider,

"Previously, the workshop you ran could not receive international orders because the tense situation in the British wizarding community could get out of control at any time, and since you are privately run, there was no guarantee, so the cooperation was interrupted.

But in the Battle of Diagon Alley, the Ministry of Magic's victory was enough to restore some confidence in the wizarding world in the international market. "

"A few won't be enough, Mr. Blaine—"

Narcissa said sharply.

"The Ministry of Magic will take the initiative to discuss with all parties and attract orders for the workshop. The British Ministry of Magic will endorse the transaction. I think this is enough to reassure the international market--"

In terms of business activities, Narcissa undoubtedly has more experience and knowledge, but Amosta remains calm and calm,

"In addition, for every international transaction, the Ministry of Magic will cooperate with the newly established insurance department of Gringotts. The Ministry of Magic will provide insurance for the transaction, and if it expires due to war or any force majeure factors, If the delivery of goods cannot be carried out, I think Gringotts will compensate both parties for their losses, so that all parties can be satisfied.”

Amosta said with a smile.

Gringotts' insurance business?

Not to mention Narcissa, everyone present was at a loss.

Before this, they had never heard of Gringotts' business.

After thinking about it for a moment, Narcissa had to admit that Brain's plan was simply excellent.

The British Wizarding Government endorses it, and if an accident occurs, Gringotts will also compensate.

Narcissa seemed to see that the reception hall of the Ministry of Magic was crowded with wizards from all over the world, coming to seek cooperation!

The business of the workshop will definitely be booming, more than ever before!

Narcissa's eager eyes showed regret.

The only drawback is that they must be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Magic, and they cannot do it alone.

They had already said that the workshop was closed due to lack of orders, so Amosta proposed asking the Ministry of Magic to intervene in the transaction.

"What about the funds?"

Unconsciously, Callum had forgotten his position, his face was filled with strong interest,

"Are you going to persuade Gringotts to grant us a low-interest or no-interest loan to support the initial operations of the workshop we run?"

"Oh, about that--"

Amosta slowly leaned back in his chair, with a subtle smile on his lips.

"My idea is to inject funds into your workshops directly from the Ministry of Magic."

Direct capital injection?

Callum was stunned;

"You mean, the Ministry of Magic wants to invest in our workshop?"

Under the spotlight, Amosta cleared his throat, finally revealing his true intentions.

"That's right--"

Amosta smiled and nodded, slightly raising his voice.

"It's investment. In order to protect basic people's livelihood, since the workshop lacks liquidity to support the workshop to resume production, the Ministry of Magic should lend a helping hand. Of course -"

Amosta paused for a moment,

"The ministry is not doing charity, the ministry must control a part of the equity."

Looking at the silent crowd, Amosta smiled lightly and said,

"This makes sense, doesn't it, everyone?" (End of Chapter)
