Hogwarts: This wizard wants to improve too much

"Which team do you think is good this year?"

Ethan had Hutch collect a lot of information about Quidditch teams so that he could find a better target when he placed his bets.

But Ethan hadn't had time to look at it yet. It would probably be okay to ask these three Quidditch fans now.

"This year, the Scottish team is still likely to win the championship."

When Cedric said this, a trace of yearning flashed in his eyes.

After graduation, he planned to join a Quidditch club.

If he could be selected for the national team later, it would be even better to fight for Great Britain in the next Quidditch World Cup.

And the team he wanted to join the most was the Scottish team.

Even Cedric had thought about his life plan. From club players to national team players, he would accumulate popularity and build up his status. Even if he retired in his thirties or forties, he could still work in the Ministry of Magic.

In this regard, Cedric envied Viktor Krum of the Bulgarian team.

This guy was only one year older than him, but he joined the Quidditch club two years ago, and then was selected for the national team. He made his mark in the preliminaries and became a star player of the Bulgarian team.

Now, no one in the Quidditch circle in Europe doesn't know him.

It can be said that he got the script of the chosen son of Quidditch.

You know, Viktor Krum is just 18 years old.

He will definitely have a bright future in the future.

"We are also optimistic about the Scottish team. They should have won the championship last year, but unfortunately the mistake of the final seeker Hector Lamont gave the opponent's seeker an opportunity and eventually lost the championship."

When George said this, he still looked regretful.

Their father Arthur took them to watch the final at that time. The whole game lasted for five days.

The Weasley family also watched the game for five days in the audience, but the Scottish team still lost the game by 30 points.

This also made many Quidditch fans lose their fortunes, after all, there are many people in Great Britain who support their national team.

The atmosphere of Quidditch in Great Britain is quite grand, and the strength is naturally not weak.

The Scottish team is the best among them, and its supporters are countless.

Even though it lost the game by 30 points last year, it still has the most supporters among the several Quidditch teams in Great Britain.

"The first game is about to start, England and Transylvania, which team do you think is more likely to win?"

Ethan didn't know much about the Scottish team, but he knew that the runner-up of the last session was the runner-up who won the game for five days.

In the interviews of major newspapers in the past few days, many of these things have been mentioned.

The specific rules of the competition are as follows: it is divided into the Quidditch World Cup qualifiers and the finals.

All countries and regions can participate in the qualifying rounds and are divided into 16 groups. Within two years, each team will play against other teams in the group one by one.

And there is a time limit for the qualifying rounds.

Four hours, whether the Golden Snitch is caught or not, the game is considered over, and the winner is still determined by the score.

The final round is for the final 16 teams. There is no time limit. The game ends when the Golden Snitch is caught. This is why the last game lasted five days.

And the final round is a single-elimination tournament. If you lose a game, you can go home. The 16 teams will get a ranking based on the results of the qualifying rounds before the start.

The team with the most points will play against the team with the least points.

The final round of this Quidditch World Cup is held here. As for the preliminaries, they were played two years ago.

The England team has the highest points, and the Transylvania team is the bottom one.

So the first match of the upcoming game is England vs. Transylvania.

"Of course it's England. Are you going to buy Transylvania?"

Fred looked at Ethan in disbelief.

Although England is not as good as Scotland, it is still a good thing to get first place in the qualifiers this time.

It is impossible to lose to Transylvania, which I have never heard of.

If Charlie hadn't gone to work in the Fire Dragon Reserve in Romania, he would have to go to Transylvania frequently and introduce his work situation to his family.

Otherwise, until now, I and others still don't know which little place this is.

"Well, I'm going to buy Transylvania."

Ethan looked at the three guys on the opposite side who looked at him with a look of difficulty, and nodded affirmatively.

Ethan didn't know the specific result of the game.

But all the British Quidditch teams seem to be not doing well this year.

Although they all entered the finals, they were all worse than the other after the fight.

As for the Irish team, the Muggle region of Ireland has become independent.

Although wizards are divided as a whole, Ireland has no affiliation with Britain, and they also want to learn from the Muggles and become independent.

A considerable number of children of Irish pure-blooded nobles choose to study in Durmstrang and Beauxbatons.

"Ethan, are you sure you have no problem with your brain?"

"Everyone can see the gap, it's better to buy the England team with us!"

George looked at Ethan seriously, he really wanted to do it for Ethan's good.

After all, the difference in strength between the two teams can be seen at a glance.

This Quidditch World Cup, Fred and George plan to show their skills, at least to earn back the money they spent on the full ticket to the Quidditch World Cup.

ThisBut it concerns the scale of the Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes that he will open after graduation.

“You can buy the villa by the sea, haven’t you heard of it?”

Hearing the twins’ affirmation, Ethan couldn’t help but have some doubts. This might be the result of someone manipulating the game behind the scenes!

Just like Lockhart and Ludo manipulating the Hogwarts Wizarding Competition, although they didn’t make much money because of Ethan’s intrusion, they still manipulated it.

Now, it is estimated that the Ministry of Magic of various countries and the goblins are manipulating the entire game together.

I should have thought of it earlier. It is common for the Muggle world to manipulate the game to make profits, and it is not impossible to switch to the wizarding world.

As long as the benefits are big enough, what are they afraid of?

As for how the final benefits should be distributed, Ethan is not sure.

Fortunately, Ethan did not plan to make money by buying at the bottom in this Quidditch World Cup, otherwise, who knows who will be harvested.

"What is a villa?"

He almost understood what Ethan meant by this sentence, but he really didn't know what a villa was.

"A kind of house in the Muggle world, it can be said to be a mansion."

"If the England team is stronger than the Transylvania team, everyone can see this, and everyone has bought the England team, but in the end, Transylvania suddenly won. Who is the biggest winner?"

"Just like the wizard duel competition at Hogwarts last year, if I lost to Cassandra in the end, who do you think would be the biggest beneficiary?"

Ethan said this directly here. If they still don't understand, then it's really useless.

And now the more you think about it, the more likely it is.

This term of British Minister of Magic Fudge took office in 1990, just after the end of the last Quidditch World Cup.

Ethan knows exactly what kind of person Fudge is. He is greedy for power and money.

He can even accept the endorsement of Honeydukes Candy Store. Now it is not impossible for him to control the Quidditch team in the British region.

As long as there are gold galleons to earn, Fudge will not care about these.

The term of office of the Minister of Magic is limited. He must make as much money as possible during this period. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Otherwise, it cannot explain the successive upsets of the Quidditch teams in the British region, and the less controlled Ireland made it to the end and won the championship.

"I think Ethan is right. Should we buy the Transylvania team too?"

George also felt that what Ethan said made sense, and immediately looked at Fred.

"767 Yeah!"

Fred hesitated a little and nodded in agreement.

Their father has been talking about Fudge a lot at home. If it were him, it is not impossible for him to manipulate the game.

“Then I will continue to buy the England teamOkay, I believe in our team. "

Cedric continued to insist on his choice.

After all, the choice of whether to play a fake match during the game is still in the hands of the players.

He didn't believe that these players would really play a fake match as Ethan said.

After several people confirmed the team they were about to buy, they prepared to squeeze into the goblin's hut.

After Ethan and others entered, it became spacious.

The space in this tent is quite huge, and there are quite a lot of goblin counters, which can fully serve everyone.

"Cedric, Weasley, Adrian, are you here to gamble on football too? ”

As soon as Ludo came in from outside, he saw Ethan and the other three, and immediately looked over with shining eyes.[]

He finally got some gold galleons through the wizard competition last year, but they were taken away by Ethan before he could even warm them up.

With just his salary as a director, he could play around outside, but in this Quidditch Century Cup betting, his gold galleons couldn't even make a splash.

So in order to satisfy his gambling addiction and make some gold galleons, he Here we start the business of agents.

Help others to operate, and of course we get 30% of the final profit.

Relying on Ludo's identity as the director of the Magic Sports Goods Department and a former Quidditch star player, he really fooled a lot of fools.

Just now I walked around outside, just to see if there were any fools I knew here to fool, but as soon as I came in, I saw Ethan and his friends.

"Yes, Mr. Bagman, you want to come too?"

When Cedric saw Ludo, he went to meet him immediately. He still admired Ludo a little.

And as for how to go in the future, Cedric copied Ludo's experience. .
