"...We analyzed the magic contained in this diary."
"In addition to Horcruxes, we also found some interesting magic here that we can refer to, and improved it to complete industrialization."
"Mr. Lucius Malfoy, the Destiny Group plans to establish some factories in Austria, the United Kingdom, France and other countries, not only to target consumers in the magical world, but more importantly, to open up the market in the non-magical world. Are you interested as a
Will the general managers of several of these industries assist in the management and operation? We can provide you with generous remuneration packages and dividends, as well as employee safety and security."
"As for now, the first one we focus on is the 'Strong Adsorption Magic Sanitary Napkin', which is developed based on the self-protection of the Horcrux Diary. You can think about it carefully..."
Lucius Malfoy was walking in the corridor of Hogwarts Castle, the conversation that just happened in the Hogwarts kitchen kept echoing in his mind.
Although he had made some mental preparations in advance, the reality was much more magical than he imagined.
An extremely evil Horcrux that the Dark Lord regarded as life... one of the Horcruxes... was played and developed by Her Highness the Witch like a toy, like a guinea pig used as a prop in a Transfiguration class.
The most terrifying thing is that when Elena introduced him to him, she used the word "we" without any hesitation.
In other words, this is not her actions alone.
Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald, these two old wizards are obviously the core participants.
In addition, the several-hundred-year-old alchemist who suddenly announced his comeback this year, and the Ministry of Magic whose attitude has become ambiguous and radical...
As a "socialite" who is well versed in the rules and entanglements of the magical world, Lucius easily sketched and rendered a huge underground alliance in his mind.
Of course, judging from the current situation, this alliance is not a tight and solid organization.
Otherwise, the Ministry of Magic would not insist on placing personnel in Hogwarts on the one hand, but quietly guide the establishment of the "Magical Market Management and Supervision Department" on the other hand.
With the complete collapse of the Dark Lord who prompted these forces to cooperate, the next thing is the struggle for interests - just as he judged, whether it is the Ministry of Magic, Hogwarts, the previous generation of Dark Lords, many parties
The forces began to divide the resources of the future society as prey, and the most important and basic of them was naturally to attract new members.
After decades of observation and travel, Lucius Malfoy was well aware of the shortcomings of the Ministry of Magic and the Hogwarts School Board.m
Most of the right to speak has been divided up long ago. Even if he tries his best to squeeze into the school board of directors, he is still more of a taken advantage of being manipulated and paid for.
However, compared to the complexity of the magical government and school factions, the "magic market" in the magical world and even the non-magical world is a virgin land that no one has explored.
The exclusive global distributor and agent of Magic Sanitary Napkins?
Lucius Malfoy's eyes flashed. Putting aside those unworthy reputations, this sounded quite promising.
Not to mention, Her Highness the Witch also promised to guarantee "employee safety", which is something that neither Voldemort nor the Magical Government has.
Of course, that contract was not a one-sided benefit. When Her Highness the Witch invited him, she also gave him a small test:
With technical support, policy support, and financial support, he must provide a practical operation plan within half a month.
Otherwise, his future identity may not be that of a "brand general manager" but an ordinary channel distributor.
"...Lucius, Lucius? Lucius!"
Just as Lucius was thinking about how to respond to this test, he suddenly felt someone shaking him hard.
He suddenly came to his senses and turned to look to the side, only to see his wife looking at him with a dissatisfied look on his face, while his rebellious little boy was further ahead.
Further ahead of the two of them was the location of the parent-teacher meeting for second-year students at Hogwarts - the Transfiguration Classroom.
Some scattered chatter could be heard faintly from the ajar classroom door.
Obviously, many parents and students have already arrived, and the parents are using this time to simply exchange their experiences.
The location of the parent-teacher conference for the second grade students at Hogwarts was arranged in the Transfiguration classroom, which surprised many parents of the students.
Many people thought that Professor McGonagall would be in charge of the parent-teacher conferences for fifth or seventh grade students. After all, they were about to face O.W.L.s and N.E.W.T.s little wizards.
"Are you okay? Lucius—"
Narcissa Malfoy frowned and looked at her husband, who had been a little distracted since just now.
"What are you thinking about? This is not like you. Anyway, you have to calm down for a while. There are many parents of other students in the classroom."
"It's okay, I was just thinking, if one day we have to-"
Before Lucius could finish his words, he suddenly closed his mouth and looked alertly at the unpleasant red pile approaching not far away.
Red hair, red-trimmed college robes, and the whirring sound coming from a long distance away.
Hogwarts, oh no - this is the only one in the wizarding world.
"Oh, Mr. Weasley, it seems that the disadvantages of raising too many children are not just limited living..."
Lucius Malfoy quickly returned to his usual arrogant expression and looked ahead at the Weasley family walking towards them.
"Tsk, tsk, do you plan to squeeze the whole family into the second grade? Or do you have any special performances to perform before the parent-teacher meeting?"
In this era when pure-blood heirs are generally withering away, as the only pure-blood wizarding family in the British wizarding world today that has raised seven children, the Weasley family is really eye-catching.
You know, although the Weasley family is known as the "pure-blood shame" in people's mouth, when they discuss each other in secret, they are also the envy of many pure-blood wizard families.
What I have to admit is that, especially when this big family appears in front of people's eyes, the visual impact is simply too strong.
"It's none of your business, Malfoy—"
Arthur Weasley ignored the sarcasm in Lucius's mouth and spoke quickly in a tit-for-tat manner.
"We are here to find Professor McGonagall, please give way - if you are not going to move forward, at least stay out of the middle of the road."
"Professor McGonagall, oh, yes, you are very busy today. There are seven children to attend the parent-teacher conference. It seems that you have to miss part of it?"
Lucius Malfoy said softly and slowly, his eyes wandering around Mr. Weasley.
"Of course, as the Hogwarts School Board of Trustees, I have many channels to ask professors for information..."
He paused deliberately and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, as if he was waiting for something.
"Really? We can also ask the professors to go to the parent-teacher conference..."
Mrs. Weasley, who was still talking softly to her youngest son, suddenly lit up her eyes and asked happily.
However, before she could finish her words, Arthur Weasley interrupted with a vigilant look.
"Ignore this guy, Molly."
Mr. Weasley took a small step forward and stood in front of Lucius.
Unlike Molly, Arthur Weasley understood the pretentious, pretentious, pale middle-aged man in front of him very well.
This kind of helpful thing never happens to Malfoy. Most of this annoying guy's actions are just to show off himself or ridicule others.
If you don't want to be in a bad mood, then it's best not to give Lucius Malfoy a chance to show off or speak from the beginning. This is the way to deal with it summed up by Arthur Weasley.
"But……"
Mrs. Weasley looked at the children behind him hesitantly, but hesitated to speak.
Lucius Malfoy was right, compared to other wizarding families, their number of children was a bit too many.
On weekdays, she and Arthur could barely cope with it even with a little extra effort at most, and the older Charlie and Bill would also help.
But there is really nothing we can do about the parent-teacher conference. The seven children are now divided into five grades. In addition to Charlie and Bill, there are still four parent-teacher conferences for them to attend.
Even if she and Arthur were separated, there would still be at least two grades of children without anyone to accompany them at the parent-teacher conference.
Almost all students' parents will stay with their children, and the Weasleys don't want their children to become one of the few exceptions.
Even if they couldn't accompany him the whole time, they still wanted to find some compromise, so they thought of going to Professor McGonagall first to ask about the situation.
"Why not consider remote switching? Hmm... I remember that the student handbook should have this function——"
At this moment, a confident and brisk girl's voice suddenly sounded from behind the crowd.
Mrs. Weasley turned her head and saw Hermione and Mr. Granger standing on the moving stairs on the fourth floor.
