Study Days at Hogwarts

Fortunately, no one continues to waste time on this issue.

With the help of the house elf Dobby, everyone returned directly to the headquarters of the Defense Association. After packing up the things they needed next, they set foot on the familiar land again.

The only flaw is probably that the traces left by the Hogwarts students who were previously transferred here for refuge can still be seen everywhere on this ruins.

"Okay, let's set up the rest tent first."

Albert reached out and pulled out the tent bag from his suitcase, and asked the guy beside him to set up the tent at the designated location so that everyone could have a place to eat and rest.

Then the work of building the village began in earnest.

Someone must be responsible for demolishing the ruins of the house, someone must be responsible for clearing the weeds on the ground, and someone must help level the land and sort the cleared garbage and pile it up in designated locations.

As for Albert, he is not just taking charge of the overall situation. After he divided the work for everyone, he took Shanna to divide the land into various areas with different functions, so that everyone could clearly and gradually progress the project according to the pre-plan, so that they would not suddenly not know what they should do during the period. .

"This will definitely become an enviable village in the future."

Shanna carefully looked at the complete map in her hand and sighed softly, "I just don't know if those guys who gave up on their own initiative will regret it after knowing what they missed."

"I will leave them room for regret, but they will not be able to have their own villa." Albert can naturally guess how people who missed the opportunity will react after the village is built.

"It seems that you have arranged everything from the beginning."

Shanna felt that those people had a positive attitude at the beginning. Even if they did do less work because of work, no one would complain.

"After all, with differentiated treatment, only those who are willing to stay and help build the village will have no objections."

Albert knew the importance of contrast, otherwise even he would have an unbalanced mentality and make other people look like fools.

After inserting a sign saying "Park" into the ground, Albert began to use limestone to enclose the large surrounding land. In order to let people understand what this place was used for, he also inserted a few more pieces. A sign called "Park".

"Are you really going to turn this large area into a park?" Zannah felt that Albert planned to use Muggle ideas and style to build the village.

"Yes, this area will be turned into parks, greenhouses, medicine gardens and orchards, and the breeding grounds will probably be located downstream of the river."

"Why do I feel that you are not building a village, but an ancient noble manor?" Cedric couldn't help but complain.

"No, I think it would be more appropriate to describe it as a paradise. Maybe the village in the future will be so clean, tidy and comfortable." Zannah is happy to live in a paradise like Hogwarts, "I dare When the time comes, there will definitely be countless people who want to move here.”

"Okay, that does sound great."

Cedric talked about the reason why he came to see Albert.

"Kingsley has already started sending people to help us get the building materials we need, whether it's wood, bricks, or cement mortar raw materials. It should gradually arrive in the next few days, but we need to free up enough manpower to get them. For the raw materials to be transferred, if possible, it is best to get a larger container so that it will be more convenient to transfer them.”

Albert knew that Cedric was eyeing the convenience of his suitcase, so he couldn't help but curled his lips and said: "I remember that there should be a large container suitcase in my hand. I will bring it to you tomorrow."

However, having said that, when did the Ministry of Magic become so efficient, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that it is not difficult to guess the reason.

With Kingsley's special care, the Ministry of Magic will naturally not be lazy, and it is not too difficult to get the pile of building materials.

"If possible, it's best not to wait until tomorrow." Cedric suddenly said, "With the efficiency of the Ministry of Magic, we might be able to help with it today. I have to be just in case."

"Okay, I'll have the house elf bring the box later."

Albert still didn't really think that the Ministry of Magic could be so efficient, but he agreed first because he didn't have to worry about it anyway.

"That's good, I'll leave first. There's something else going on at Hogwarts." Cedric turned sideways and waved to his girlfriend.

"What's going on?" Shanna asked curiously.

"Teaching young Aurors how to deal with the Inferi." Cedric couldn't help but complain when he talked about this. "They call it early training on how to teach students how to defend against the dark arts, but I think it's crazy. Han just wants to be lazy."

"It won't hurt to get used to it."

"I'm just afraid that he will blame everything on me in the future."

"Will doing this really not have any impact on the village?"

Looking at the mark inserted to mark the artificial lake next to the septic tank, Shanna couldn't help but mumbled, "I will never eat fish from that artificial lake in the future."

"Don't be silly, I haven't seen many British people eating freshwater fish from the river."

Albert carefully observed the surrounding situation, took the parchment map from Shanna's hand for comparison, and had already decided to move the orchard here.

After Albert had completely completed the peripheral planning, the demolition work there had been completed. Even the several houses that were originally shrouded by the Loyalty Curse were demolished directly by them, and the entrance to the underground shelter was directly exposed to everyone. .

According to Albert's next plan, the statue to commemorate the Defense Association and the fighting people will be placed above the underground shelter, and then the surrounding area will become the central street of the entire village, so as to avoid hiding when digging the base for building villas. The underground shelter was excavated.

For this purpose, Albert not only used lime powder and wooden signs, but even marked out in advance how much everyone needed to dig.

Such a huge workload should be enough to free up some time for Albert to accompany Hermione to Australia to find her family.

He even specifically told Shanna that if everyone still had energy left after solving the villa's foundation problem, they would also fix a few wells and the village's sewers to prevent everyone from building the house indiscriminately. , but forgot about the sewers, the Weasley family is a mess in this regard.

"I suspect you are dreaming. This workload is no joke, especially the sewers. I'm afraid you have to handle it yourself."

Shanna doubted that a week, no, half a month could complete the work Albert mentioned.

"If everything goes well, I predict that it will take about a year to complete the residential area and some of the equipment." During everyone's break, Albert did not forget to reveal his prediction to him, and drew a big pie for them.

Moreover, in order not to waste time, Albert even planned to start construction in many places and plant some fruit trees in advance and a series of other ideas that made people stunned.

"You black-hearted boss, you are planning to completely squeeze us!" Fred couldn't help but complain.

If everything is not arranged in an orderly manner and divided into specialties and taken care of by someone, it is estimated that many people will be blind.

Believe me, no one wants to waste a lot of time here. As long as you are not lazy, you will be done soon.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

However, they still chose to believe Albert.

Because after it is built according to the blueprint, it will definitely be an unexpected place, and it is worth investing a lot of time and energy in it.

Looking at the group of people who were whispering about the house layout, Shanna lowered her voice and said, "I don't think everyone can keep up with your ideas."

"It's okay, I didn't expect them to keep up from the beginning, and I can pull them forward." Albert listened to the whispers of people and finally finalized the apartment layout he had expected.

"Have you already chosen the apartment type from the beginning?"

Shanna looked into Albert's eyes, and she knew that Albert called this a sense of participation.

"Yes, I'll bother you in the next few days. I will remember to bring you a souvenir." With that said, Albert walked over amidst the greetings of others.
