The world map was flattened in front of the two of them by Anton using the floating spell. Fudge looked at this operation with some amazement, and had an inexplicable urge to join Anton's cram school to learn magic.
"Look, the Animagus office in Hogsmeade is here." He stretched out his fat finger and clicked on the map, dragging it all the way across the ocean to another continent, "If
It's possible to have a branch of the Animagus office in New York, here, in the sheltered tower in the heart of New York City."
Anton looked at the map while holding the black tea and nodded.
"The times are changing. After the peak of the Merlin era, and the era of the International Federation of Wizards, the British Ministry of Magic is gradually beginning to no longer represent the center of the wizarding world. The American Ministry of Magic has a faint tendency to compete with or even replace it."
Speaking of this, Fudge's expression was very serious, "It's not that the Ministry of Magic in Europe doesn't work hard, nor is it that the Magical Congress of the United States does a good job. Anton, wizards and Muggles are inextricably linked to each other.
The impact is not as simple as it seems."
"The determination of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy has allowed the wizarding community to be completely hidden from the Muggle community, but this has instead led to a certain dimension of cooperation between the top wizarding forces and the Muggle forces." Fudge sneered, "Although
Pure-blood families always talk about 'pure-blood supremacy' and work hard to create a culture of discrimination against Muggles, but they are the ones who have the deepest collusion with Muggles, but no one dares to speak out about it."
Anton looked at him in astonishment, "Is there such a thing?"
He always thought that only the Malfoy family would exert influence in Muggle society.
Fudge sneered, "Wizards are also human beings. In terms of food, clothing, housing, and transportation, if they are suitable for Muggles, they are also suitable for wizards, right? Look at a wizard as powerful as Nicolas Flamel. The most powerful thing is the alchemy of turning stone into gold, but
Not many people seem to be flocking to it, why?”
"Because they can easily obtain a lot of gold through Muggles!"
He looked at Anton with a very mysterious look, "Guess, why Lupine can lead the werewolves to establish a werewolf home in the Muggle world? This is a violation of the more common and widespread folk perception of the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy, hehe.
, that’s because of Dumbledore’s reputation as the greatest wizard of this century, they had to recognize Dumbledore to get a share of the pie.”
Anton shook his head, "In fact, everyone thinks of Dumbledore too darkly. Maybe he really provided shelter for Lupine, but he really didn't get anything from Lupin in Muggle society."
wealth."
After all, Aunt Ilsa is in charge of the accounts of Werewolf Household, and the accounts are all disclosed to Anton, the future heir of the company, and he knows very well.
Fudge was silent for a while and didn't say anything. He just continued pointing at the map and talking.
"The influence of a top wizard is so great that it affects all aspects."
"Anton, maybe you can think about this."
"As far as this Animagus Office is concerned, except for you, no Ministry of Magic in any country will allow an office from another country's Ministry of Magic to open in its territory."
"This is simply carving up power among ourselves."
"Of course, the biggest reason is that the 'Werewolf Animagus' you developed is too tempting, and they also hope to use it to obtain this ability."
"Then, as long as the British Ministry of Magic and the Magical Congress of the United States spread out these two places, your Animagus Office will be easily promoted to the entire world."
Fudge took out his wand, lit it and marked a golden spot on the map. As each country spread, a large golden net appeared on the entire world map.
After doing this, he turned his head and looked at Anton seriously, "Similarly, you can also think of it as the influence network of your magic school."
It's very tempting and sounds exciting.
But Anton still shook his head, "An Animagus office can be set up. I have verified the Werewolf Animagus many times. Director Scrimgeour also responded to the use of Aurors. It is indeed a good human transformation magic. This
It’s worth promoting. But I’m not very interested in building a magic school.”
This kind of thing is very troublesome when you hear it.
Fudge just smiled slightly, "I'm talking about the future. Oh, of course, maybe you want to find something to do after graduation. Maybe my proposal can be a useful reference for you."
"What about you?" Anton looked at Fudge, "Planning this for me doesn't seem to be in your interest."
Going abroad and becoming a transnational organization, whether it is a magic school or not, cooperating with various ministries of magic and international organizations, seems to have affected the importance of the British Minister of Magic to Anton himself?
"if……"
Fudge was a little shy and hesitantly rubbed his hands, "I mean what if..."
"What if I want to follow suit and take a step further?"
Anton really couldn't understand this and looked at him blankly, "Go further? You are already the Minister of Magic, how much further can you go?"
"Hey hey hey..."
Fudge rarely showed an unconfident expression and whispered, "There is also the chairman of the International Confederation of Wizards."
Good guy!
Anton was shocked!
"You dare to think about this?"
Do you know who is the current president of the International Confederation of Wizards? Dumbledore!
Do you know who is the most potential candidate to take over next? Master Ajinbad!
Awesome!
Anton gave a thumbs up, thinking that after taking this product, he drank the wrong potion this morning, right?
"Hey, don't think I'm dreaming." Fudge looked at Anton's face and said with some pride, "Politics is not about who is suitable and who is chosen. It depends on the situation, and the situation...
"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Fighting with Dumbledore? That is impossible.
But if we talk about Master Ajinbad? Fuji has too many ideas. No matter how awesome Master Ajinbad is, how can he be as awesome as Anton?
As long as Anton doesn't plan to be the president of the International Confederation of Wizards himself, why can't he?
As long as he firmly grasps the way to get along with Anton and becomes a part of the force that cooperates well with Anton and is even indispensable, Fudge can even build up momentum to the point where others push him to become the chairman of the International Federation!
Fudge shouldn't be too clear about the game of interests.
All you have to do is wait patiently and wait for Anton's strength and influence to increase step by step.
Anton’s future is still long, and Fudge’s future is also long!
He was not in a hurry at all.
If he does everything well at the moment, he will surely reap the fruits.
"By the way, what are you going to do at the Ministry of Magic this time?"
Anton looked at the map in front of him with an inexplicable expression, and suddenly felt a bit toothache. If he proposed his own idea at this time, would it make this guy think too much?
"I plan to hold a global student wizard competition along the lines of the Triwizard Tournament."
"Okay!" Fudge roared excitedly, his eyes widened as if they were about to pop out.
"Oh, Minister Fudge, it's not what you think. I have no ambition at all. I just want to take the opportunity to conduct a large-scale experiment."
"I understand, I understand."
"..."
Anton really wants to ask, what do you know?
ah?
But Fudge was right about one thing. He was indeed the most suitable collaborator for Anton. Regarding this Top 100 Competition, Fudge was obviously much more enthusiastic than himself.
"Anton, you just said you would use another name to develop the Azkaban island, right?"
"Haha, it turned out to be this idea. It's great. It's a genius idea!"
The corner of Anton's mouth twitched, and he looked at the ambitious man helplessly, "It's really not true, I just said it casually at the time."
