This Hogwarts isn't normal.

Wednesday morning,

Dumbledore walked out of the headmaster's office with a smile. ♦♦  ☞♦

It's a bit vulgar, but judging from this incident, gold galleons are really better than magic.

He is full of martial virtue and amiable.

The magical contract has been signed, and seven new directors are on the way.

The West Tower next to Ravenclaw Tower is generally vacant.

But when it's time for school board meetings, it transforms into a spacious hall.

Going up the narrow spiral staircase, five other directors had already arrived.

They sat around a simple long table, each with their own arrogant expressions.

They are all wizards with a certain social status and have the power to decide on the appointment or temporary suspension of the principal.

When Dumbledore came in, he found that each of their expressions were more dissatisfied than the other.

What Lucius couldn't accomplish no matter how much gold Galleons he spent, he did it in just three days.

In terms of popularity, it is unparalleled in the UK and even the world.

"Albus, what do you mean?" A tall and thin director stood up excitedly.

"You made seven directors transfer their seats in one go. You are really generous!"

The other four didn't say anything, but their united front could be seen from their expressions.

Dumbledore sat at the end of the long table on the other side.

He put his hands on the table and looked approachable.

"I believe you have received a lot of news in advance recently."

The tall and thin director leaned forward, "Albus, what do you mean?"

"Beorman, someone wants to take advantage of the school board, I'm just taking precautions in advance."

"Nonsense!" Beoman suddenly became more excited,

"That person is you! You want to turn the school into your private property!"

Dumbledore looked at him with a smile.

Beoman, who felt a little guilty, understood.

He is a new face joining the board after Lucius' exit.

On the surface, he seems to have a very talkative personality, but in fact, he has long been defeated by Jin Jialong's fierce offensive.

But before he could negotiate the price with other directors, the entire road was completely blocked.

"Albus, the new director must be of a certain social standing."

Beorman's confrontation with Dumbledore was puzzling enough, but his sudden withdrawal was even more puzzling to the four directors.

[To be honest, I have been reading books recently to catch up on updates. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. It can be used on both Android and Apple. 】

Is there another secret?

"Hiss——"

The directors all looked in the direction of the spiral staircase.

It was a huge snake head with emerald green scales.

"A basilisk raised by Salazar Slytherin?" Beoman opened his mouth.

How much social status does the creation of the founder of Hogwarts have?

"Damn--" He cursed secretly in his heart.

The school director can only be a wizard, but he has been at the school for nearly a thousand years. ‘6’ ‘9’ ‘s’ ‘h’ ‘u’ ‘x’ ‘.’ ‘c’ ‘o’ ‘m’

Dumbledore smiled and turned the seat on his right into a pillar.

"I believe you don't need me to introduce you?

Yes, Jom Gander is one of the new directors. "

"Hiss—" Jomgander, who was coiled on the pillar, nodded to the five people who looked frightened.

"Albus, its eyes..."

"Please rest assured, an enthusiastic classmate made a hood for Jomgander. He is not in any danger now."

It was his seniority that had to be acknowledged, and the directors except Beoman began to look forward to who would be next.

There were footsteps on the spiral staircase, followed by two hearty laughs.

Restmann, who returned from Germany, hugged Clement warmly and then walked into the parliament hall with a smile.

They are both members of the Holy Twenty-Eight Family. There is no reason why Malfoy can be the school director, but Greengrass and Rosier can't, right?

Beoman was so anxious that he wanted to curse.

Jin Jialong can no longer earn money, and he will have to look at his face in the future.

Behind them came Aberforth with a sinister look on his face.

Dumbledore's younger brother and an elder member of the Order of the Phoenix.

Then came Arthur and Amos Diggory.

Both were officials from the Ministry of Magic and barely had social status.

“Cuckoo—” A round brown ball of fur flew in from the owl loft at the top of the west tower.

The five school directors initially thought it was a message, until it landed firmly on the small wooden house Dumbledore had conjured to the left.

Beoman found the opportunity and slammed the table hard, "Albus, do you know what you are doing!"

He pointed to Jomgand and pointed until Gu Gu,

"Is this big meatball qualified to serve as a school director?"

Gugu's little body leaned forward, as if he was about to attack at any time.

Beorman, who was stared at closely by Jomgander, took his hand back stiffly.

“Ahem—members of the Hogwarts Board of Directors must be wizards with a certain social status.

I personally feel that the number of exceptions should not be too many, otherwise it will affect the normal management of the school. "

Dumbledore looked at him with a smile.

"Gugu!" Gugu raised his short little paws and threw a piece of parchment from the small ring decoration.

Beoman, who picked it up, felt extremely envious in his heart.

Not only mithril, but also the Traceless Stretching Charm.

"Huh?"

After reading the contents of the parchment, he knew that whatever he did was in vain.

This is not a magical contract, this is an appointment letter that has not yet taken effect.

The magical contract transferring a director's seat does not require notification to other directors, but the appointment letter to become an interim director must be unanimously approved by the board members in order to be effective.

Apart from him, the remaining four have relatively mild personalities and are not as repulsive to Muggle-borns as the seven who transferred their seats.

Dumbledore really has a good plan!

Recommend an underage Muggle-born wizard who cannot be vetoed, and then occupy 7 board seats in the name of temporary replacement.

It is estimated that the first meeting after signing the appointment letter will be to reorganize the overall framework of the board of directors.

Sooner or later they will be pushed out.

"Albus, do you really want to be so heartless?" Beorman put the appointment letter next to him.

The four directors exchanged a cursory glance, and then all set their eyes on him.

"Everyone, don't you understand?

Vincent Wayne is just a cover, Albus wants to turn the school into his own private property from beginning to end! "

Arthur gave him a look of disdain.

The seven relatively "dirty" former school directors have all signed contracts, and objections to the appointment letters will not change anything.

It is against the rules to allow underage Vincent to serve as a director, let alone seven at the same time.

Even if it is useful to sow discord, it has already exposed its trump card.

A gray-haired director took out his wand and signed his name on the appointment letter.

"Britt!"

"Everyone should still remember what happened the year before last, right?"

Before the Christmas holidays of 1991, Lucius, who was still a director at the time, proposed that Dumbledore be dismissed as headmaster.

The reason is that he recruits dark wizards like Quirrell into the school as professors because he doesn't know people well.

The vote for and against was 6 to 6, but Dumbledore was still taken back by the Ministry of Magic for investigation.

Lucius can use off-board moves, why can't others use them?
