Chapter 63: Planning
9 to 5, two o'clock and one line, Malfoy's life is peaceful now. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Most of the backstage work does not allow him to endure the trouble of reception, you must know that there are many low-quality people in both Muggle society and wizarding society, and being entangled in the front desk is not only a waste of time, but also makes your day not very pleasant.
And in the blink of an eye, this third holiday is almost half over.
Since that private meeting with Rachel in the tavern, he and Rachel have not had contact in private again, firstly to avoid suspicion after the incident, and secondly, it is unnecessary.
He was waiting for a legitimate opportunity to carry out his plan.
As Malfoy, who can greatly improve the efficiency of the elf's work and is not essentially an employee, the elf made an exception for him to vacate a private office, the comfortable leather chair allowed him to leisurely flip through the newspaper and pay attention to the information he needed after completing his tasks ahead of schedule, and when he quickly scanned the meaningless ordinary news, a row of black and bold headlines made his pupils shrink.
"The notorious wizard Sirius Black has escaped from Azkaban, as confirmed by the Ministry of Magic today, and remains unapprehended. "We're trying to get Blake back together. "This was the statement of the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, this morning, and the newspaper photo shows him with an embarrassed smile on his face and a look of sorrow between his brows, and it is clear that this has happened during his reign and is a major blow to his reputation.
"Here's your chance. Malfoy smiled.
He opened the drawer under his desk, pulled one out of a pile of parchment at random, laid it flat on the table, and wrote slowly with a quill:
Dear Gringotts Branch President,
I'm sure you've heard the biggest news of the day - the infamous Sirius who ended thirteen lives with a single spell. Blake has escaped from prison in Azkaban, and as we all know, he is the only possible heir to the noble Black family, and is recognized as a loyal servant of the mysterious man, and we have good reason to believe that he may come to Gringotts to retrieve his wealth, any recruitment requires money to achieve, and he may still believe that the mysterious man can make a comeback, and we can assume that he does not mind another ransack when he gets his fortune back.
Last year and this year, I was honored to have the opportunity to work here, of course, not so much as work, but rather the opportunity to exercise in the thin face of my father, which I am very grateful, but because of this, I should give some of my own shallow suggestions for the development of the bank.
Before Blake is apprehended, I think Gringotts' protection should be properly enhanced, even if it is already impregnable. Because even Azkaban Prison, isolated in the North Sea, couldn't hold that murderer.
I believe that if Gringotts can lead by example at this time, it will definitely increase the loyalty, trust and orientation of existing customers, as well as the orientation of potential customers.
Not all families are as willing to invest as my father, and more of the old families believe in their own family's private coffers more than Gringotts, and this is a good opportunity, and if Black does come and we can help capture it, I think the reputation of the Gringotts branch in the UK will definitely go to the next level, and it is unknown to know how to get more business.
The above is just an immature suggestion for non-regular employees......
After a bit of humility and leaving his name, Malfoy was ready to submit the proposal to the current branch president, a goblin who didn't have much foresight and was a mediocre goblin.
If Malfoy was really just an ordinary employee, this letter would have been lost, and a stronger leader might have criticized him, after all, no one wants to be dictated by a small employee.
But he is different, not to mention that the average staff is no longer comparable to him in terms of contributions, and the most important thing is that their family is also one of the important patrons of this Gringotts branch.
These are enough for those in office to think about it.
Moreover, these recommendations are indeed very reasonable, and no one will think that strengthening security measures is the wrong thing to do.
As Malfoy fell into deep thought, there was a sudden sound of an owl cooing and the grinding of its wings outside the window, and a large, black-furred owl was peering out the window with its orange-yellow eyes. From time to time, he taps the glass with his paws, hoping to get the attention of the person inside.
With a sigh, Malfoy got up and opened the window to let the owl in.
"It's the only size that can carry so many things. Looking at the package covering the owl's wide claws, Malfoy couldn't help but think.
It was a variety of snacks and groceries from Narcissa, including licorice wands, candy quills, chocolates, and desserts baked by her own chef, but it was clear that his stomach couldn't hold everything.
"It's probably a blissful annoyance," Malfoy thought as he looked at the apparently excessive amount of food, but he didn't open the packages immediately. Instead, he returned to his seat, spread out a piece of parchment, and wrote.
He wants to bring peace.
The basilisk incident caused him to lie in the hospital bed for a few days, and when the news reached Narcissa's ears, she wanted to rush to Hogwarts to find Dumbledore's theory, she was already extremely protective in her daily life, not to mention hearing that her most precious son was injured and even almost lost his life.
Except for the people close to him, the Malfoy family is very mean, and it is impossible to imagine what Narcissa can do.
Lucius did his best to stop her at the time, so that Narcissa didn't actually go to school, otherwise it was foreseeable that Hogwarts would have jumped up again.
However, after one last rare moment of peace, Malfoy returned to his home.
Going to the hospital again for a follow-up, the nourishing food that he couldn't eat, and the things that made Malfoy unbearable, but these were also concerns that could not be refused.
Lucius's position on the school board of directors also declined because of this incident, but due to Dumbledore's own negligence, Lucius was not removed from the board.
From a common sense point of view, Malfoy was to blame for his decline in the status of a director, but he did not blame Malfoy in the slightest.
He just told him: "The glory of pureblood needs to be defended, but there is no need to sacrifice yourself, and you must be more cautious when you encounter such things in the future." ”
To use a less apt analogy, Malfoy's behavior is like that of a Chinese student who went to the hospital in order to study for the college entrance examination, and then his parents spent a lot of money on medical expenses.
Who can bear to be harsh?
In the eyes of the Lucius, it was probably of this nature: their precious son sacrificed his health to defend the glory of pureblood, suffered a lot of injuries, and then let himself be affected a little.
It's a pity that in the face of good and evil, life and death, they will one day know what ridiculous beliefs they hold onto, and even the previous Voldemort was only trying to entangle all the power that can be used to win over this group of pure-blooded families, bloodline is supreme? He himself is just a half-blood.
Fantasizing about Voldemort coming to power and dividing and conquering, or one person under ten thousand people, is really naïve.
If he really comes to power, maybe the first ones to use it may be these so-called pure-blood families.
How can cooperation be completely controlled.
His ambition is to conquer even life and death.
