Chapter 52 Meetings (4)
Phoenix looked at the crowd, and inside was a man with a ponytail, squeezing out of the crowd.
"I guess they don't have much in their own hands, it's all wild. He explained, "Except for a breeding farm in Wanbang City, there is basically no place for artificial breeding, and they are too dangerous. There are usually regular hunting teams that hunt them and draw blood to supply the market. There aren't many of them, and they're hard to deal with—"
"The leopard is huge, but it moves silently and is very poisonous. Last year, two dark wizards were released in a city in Uganda, and even the Yugdu School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was affected, killing hundreds of thousands of Muggles and dozens more. ”
"But the Ugandan Magical Council is clever, isn't it, they use the Confusion Charm to get a few Muggle troops, thinking they themselves are under attack from a hostile nation, to storm the city and go on a killing spree. Henry said indifferently.
"It's a big project. Andrei whispered to his father.
"No, just cast a spell on the commander. The Muggles in that place were always calling around, and the people below wouldn't suspect it. Carl answered his son's question, not squinting.
"It's okay for them to fool Muggles like this - it's a provocation to the International Secrecy Act, and as a signatory they don't go after the Dark Wizards, but cover it up for their own position. ”
"Now we are not talking about the International Secrets Act. The venom, gas, and bones of the leopard are all very valuable. Phoenix corrected the subject back to the point, "There is an antidote for medical use, and for now—"
Henry took over Phoenix's words, "As far as I know, the reserves of St. Munger's Magical Injury Hospital in some areas are already below the warning line - there are not many antidotes that require encapsulated leopard materials, but they are all unique, and they also refuse to export magical materials with medical value. I think I mentioned this in my report to you. ”
"So it's even more urgent, and people have already died in the hospital because there is no antidote. Phoenix wiped his face with his hand, "Talk to Wanbang City to see if they are willing to sell us some sac leopards, money is not a problem." First, a batch of antidote from Switzerland was sent to several countries that had run out. ”
"I'm afraid it won't do much. Billo had not spoken, but this time he finally spoke, but his tone was full of bitterness.
"When it comes to North America, even though they choose neutrality between me and Klaus, it's everyone's responsibility. Let's do it—" Phoenix ignored him.
"Poaching?" said Karl, a disgraceful affair. Phoenix shrugged, and that could be the case.
"Tell them that we can split it in half when it's done. Draw blood first, and bring it back if you can. ”
To be honest, they don't have much to do about it. A lot of things are only available in their place of origin, and the only coping strategies they can think of are either poaching or buying from somewhere else. Those people are not stupid, they blockade the African continent just to prevent this thing from leaving, and for those wild animals and plants, they must be strictly guarded, and it depends on the will of God whether they can get it or not.
As for the creature that can only be used as quills, it is beyond their discussion.
As dawn approached, all the important magical materials had been planned, and the industries that obeyed Phoenix's orders began to reduce their supply to the market, and the materials for medical use were supplied to St. Munger's Hospital as usual - Klaus was almost in sync with Africa last year, and he was no longer supplying materials to the market, but his industry was small and did not cause much fluctuation.
"Young master, this is a plan of action, and it has been done. Watson Jr. took the document with the written format of the plan of action that had been agreed upon.
It is very comprehensive, taking into account various situations and response plans, some personnel and items that may be needed are also listed one by one.
"It's good that the people and items involved are to be done by Christmas. That's it—let's go early after breakfast. "No one could stand for such a long time, so after casting a traceless stretching spell on the conference room, several more rows of chairs were added. Everyone was exhausted from the all-night meeting, and as soon as they heard this, they all bounced up from their seats and walked towards the restaurant.
Peverell Castle was originally designed to be inhabited by all family members. A dozen people took their entourage out to dine, and the whole restaurant still seemed empty. Phoenix doesn't usually dine here, and it's a point that I don't like the décor, and there's a person who looks weird in such a big restaurant.
In the early morning, the sun shines in, and the white dining table and glittering golden cutlery are not reflective, still dazzling but not dazzling. Suddenly, Phoenix felt that if everyone wore a white cloak, it would really have a sense of the legendary heaven.
When he told André about his idea, he also raised his head and looked around.
"It's a little interesting, those people used to always think about not dying, but in the end they didn't succeed. The people who built the castle were probably their fans. ”
"Quite possibly," Karl glanced over at him, and Andre left knowingly, "Huh?"
"There's one more thing - the wand maker should be controlled as well, but only a few people. The main thing is Grigovich - "He waited until Andrei was far away before he spoke.
Phoenix swallowed the half-raw egg in his mouth: "Kill him?"
"After all, he lost his Elder Wand. ”
Phoenix shoved an egg into his mouth and chewed slowly, and Carl took a sip of tea and waited for him to answer.
"Grandfather shouldn't have given up the right to use the Elder Wand in order for him to study its properties, and it was taken away by someone with a heart, and he couldn't complain about others. It's not so much Grigovich's fault as it is Lao Bidou's, the fool who wrote fairy tales back then had to write the Three Hallows. Legends will be forgotten one day, but fairy tales can be remembered for a long time. There will always be a smart person or two who will realize that it is not a legend and find some clues from some corners and corners. ”
"That's true, but we used some false information hundreds of years ago to confuse the public-"
"Unless an object doesn't exist, there's always evidence that it existed. That false information was not obscured by Lohias. ”
"He used to go around preaching, like you said, somebody will try it, it's not just advertising. Grindelwald was a man who dared to try. Karl seems to have had to put him to death, and there is a strong case of evidence. It was as if Phoenix was defending Grigovich and Karl was the prosecutor.
"Okay. But he's a great wand maker, and you're going to have to make it like an accident, and his son, if he wants to make wands, has to protect him as well. Phoenix had finished his breakfast and was now drowsy, and he was in no mood to continue defending an unknown acquaintance, nor did he want to figure out the fetters between the two.
"No problem, he's not a good father. To be precise, he probably didn't even know he had a pair of children. ”
Phoenix nodded hastily and left the restaurant. After the others have eaten, they return directly to their respective places from the fireplace in the restaurant. After a while, the entire castle was left with Phoenix, Watson Jr., Andre and Henry Jr.
"You can only sleep for a few hours, wake up at 11:30 a.m. at the latest, wash up and eat, and rest for a while. Muggle Studies and Mandarin classes will be postponed. "Both of these courses are compulsory within the family, because it is the language of their worst enemy, and it is always necessary to understand the enemy. Muggle studies made it easy for him to deal with the relationship between wizarding and Muggle worlds, just as Muggles would need to make some sacrifices this time.
"In the evening you will have dinner with Mr. Greengrass, and discuss the election of you to the representative of the young wizards of Wizengamot. ”
"Thank you so much. Phoenix tugged at his clothes half-deadly, trying to listen to little Watson as he informed him of his schedule.
"And private matters," Phoenix yawned, "Miss Granger replied, she'll be here tomorrow, and I've got the costume you want." I'll bring her back around five o'clock, just in time for dinner later. Marfoy has written to invite you to go to the game next Monday, and many of your friends will be there. ”
"Tell him there's no time, see you in Diagon Alley before school starts. Phoenix had already stripped naked and burrowed into the quilt, revealing only his forehead and short black hair, and let out a muffled voice, "Are you alright?"
"It's gone. After saying that, the curtains blocked out the more and more dazzling sunlight, and the whole bedroom became dark, and he left without a sound.
