Chapter 10: The Daily Life of the Wizards - The Banquet (Part II)

"The Ministry of Magic has been going crazy lately." "The list of prohibited items has been added to the list of prohibited items, and even the Soundbird has been added to the category C trade prohibition item." I really don't understand what it is about that tame, non-aggressive little bird that needs to be forbidden. ”

"Come on! We know why the Ministry of Magic forbids it. Stephen Bleitch, the director of the International Office of Magical Law, with a pipe in his mouth, said, "Don't take everyone for fools, Ebut. From smuggling the smuggling birds, you kid didn't make a lot of money. While it's true to make money, sometimes you have to look at the right time. At this time, we really don't have to do too many movements. I've advised you to wipe your ass clean and don't let the Gryffindor Aurors get their hands on it. ”

"Nonsense, what smuggling? This is slander! What evidence do they have to prove that I smuggled? No! So, I've always been law-abiding, what kind of handle do I have for them to catch? ”

There was a little weakness in his expression, but he quickly concealed it in a tone of righteousness and indignation.

Stephen Blake sneered, but it didn't break his lustful guilt.

Daniel, who was standing on the sidelines, blinked his beautiful blue eyes and secretly remembered the information that 'Ebt Bossed, the deputy captain of the Law Enforcement Police Force, was suspected of smuggling soundbirds.

"I've heard of soundbirds, and they're harmless. The laws of the British Ministry of Magic are really cautious. ”

He interjected into the conversation at the right time, sighed, and said: "I haven't seen such a cute little animal as the soundbird in the United States, only Tyrannosaurus rex, velociraptor or something." ”

Ebt Bolt turned around as if he was not interested, and took a long sip of wine from his glass.

"Sounds interesting. Mr. Black, with all due respect, to hear Mrs. Malfoy introduce you to you as of America? ”

Stephen Blake smiled slightly, he wore wizarding robes in a more rigorous way, and the buttons were tightly tied from top to bottom, and his profession was the International Magical Law Office, so he could understand his character a little, and people who engaged in law, whether Muggles or wizards, had fixed routines, super memory and strong logical thinking skills.

Daniel smiled, "yes, I grew up in the United States. He rolled his eyes, then introduced himself, "Working for the Foreign Affairs Liaison Division of the U.S. Department of Magic." ”

He wisely didn't say that he was only occasionally 'part-time', after all, an official identity can increase his chips just right.

"The Department of External Relations? Can you tell me where to contact us? John Pusser, the director of the International Magical Transportation Division, suddenly interjected in a questioning tone, "The last time the international federation was held in France, I didn't see the seat of the United States. ”

"The composition of the American wizarding community is more complex." Daniel wasn't asked, he smiled and explained, "Or rather, our wizarding world is not all made up of wizards, but also some special people from other wizarding systems, such as pharaohs, priests, and mutants on the Egyptian side...... Well, you can understand it as magical creatures. Therefore, we generally do not actively participate in pure wizard gatherings. Of course, in the future, if necessary, we are also willing to strengthen our ties with other countries, such as all of you. ”

He wisely flattered, "Britain's long-standing pure-blood wizard family is internationally renowned and deserves the respect of all the people of the wizarding world. ”

The wizarding nobles present were all comforted by this just right sycophant, and nothing touched their hearts more than to tout their family and purebloods.

What's more, this American wizard who came from afar may be the one who will inherit the Black family in the future!

That's the great nobility of the British wizarding world.

Everyone looked friendly when they understood Daniel's position, "You're right, pureblood has a long history and is full of glory. Only those mud legs will forget history and try to subvert it. ”

"To the history of purebloods." Daniel smiled and raised his glass.

All the nobles subconsciously raised their glasses, "Respect the history of purebloods." ”

Narcissa, who also raised her wine glass, lowered her head and took a sip of red wine, and a smile of initial satisfaction appeared on her beautiful and beautiful face, "Thank you, Lucius. ”

"You're welcome, dear." Lucius chuckled, "This cousin of yours looks rough, but fortunately he is not reckless, and he is smart and witty enough, congratulations, the Black family finally has a successor." ”

Narcissa smiled smugly.

As the Malfoys whispered their heads down, Daniel had managed to get the pace of the conversation.

It's simple...... It's much simpler than the countless variety shows with no lower limit in the United States, at least this group of aristocrats, for the sake of face, won't let him have a mechanical dance or something on the spot.

“…… On an island, dinosaurs lived on the island, and there were all kinds of species, from a triceratops that was about the size of a rhinoceros, a stegosaurus that weighed five tons, a pterosaurus that could fly, and of course, my favorites were the lethal Tyrannosaurus rex and the Tyrannosaurus rex...... The first time I visited, the dragon came out of the water, and because it was too close, Merlin, it was splashed all over the water......"

Daniel is joisingly describing the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park.

The Ebt Persid, who was suspected of smuggling soundbirds, listened very attentively at this time, and he even took the initiative to ask: "You just said about visiting?"

"Yes, that's right, visit. It was a large theme park that the U.S. Department of Magic was secretly working on. Daniel replied, "That stuff makes us a lot of money, and last year the U.S. Department of Magic got most of its money from the theme park's admissions...... It's a pity that those stupid people messed up, because of poor care, the Tyrannosaurus Rex ran out and swallowed a few people, so it has been closed for rectification recently......"

"Ahh After hearing the word 'cannibalism', several noble ladies couldn't help but cover their faces with fans and exclaimed.

"The U.S. Department of Magic really knows how to play." Ebt Persd doesn't think he's as fragile as a, and he doesn't care much about cannibalism, except for what Daniel says is 'very profitable'.

"Mr. Black, do you think that if I opened a park with a soundbird, someone would pay for the entrance fee?"

"You can try." Daniel's eyes rolled slyly and he smiled encouragingly.

But he didn't reveal that one of the biggest reasons for the success of Jurassic Park was that the people who came to visit it were Muggles.

For most wizards, although they have not seen magical beasts in person, Hogwarts has held a 'fantastic beasts' course, so the desire to see animals may not be so strong, only the group of Muggles who are full of exploration will be full of enthusiasm for the activities of visiting magical beasts, and they will be more willing to spend money.

But for this fact, he felt no need to sue a British, old-fashioned, pure-blood wizard who discriminated against Muggles.

Anyway, if this guy really runs away and opens a stunner park, there will always be a way to get this 'Golden Galleon Supremacy' guy to face the Muggle society.

Daniel had countless small calculations in his heart, but he continued quietly on his face. While flattering Ebt Persted's brilliant idea, he talked about different kinds of dinosaurs with a few curious ladies around him.

By the end of the dinner, this wizard from the United States had won the friendship of many British wizards and nobles.

Of course, if it involves a conflict of interest, this weak friendship is obviously not worth mentioning, but in the case of a union of interests, I think many people are willing to open the door to him.

Sent off the guests......

"Did you have fun?" Narcissa asked with a smile as she covered her lips with a fan.

"I'm very happy, everyone is very interested in what I say." Daniel said proudly.

Narcissa smiled, noncommittal.

In fact, she also felt in her heart that her cousin's appearance today was not bad.

A pure-blood wizard from the United States, who is not obnoxious and refreshing, will have a rich net worth after trying to find a way to get back the Black family's property that was taken away by the Ministry of Magic...... And these will create all kinds of necessary conditions for the rise of the Black family.

"Tomorrow I'll ask Lucius to lend you his study for the time being." Narcissa quickly regained her severity, and she said lightly, "Daniel, you must read all the Prophet and Prophet Evening in the last five years. I want you to know every current event in the UK, as well as general knowledge in all areas of economics, politics and culture, even if you are not proficient. At least the next time you're talking to someone, you won't just rely on the new gadgets of the American wizarding world to find a topic. ”

"It's horrible, it feels like it's the pre-final exam." Daniel immediately showed an annoyed expression, and he grumbled, "I'd rather go and fight the Tyrannosaurus Rex." ”

"My dear cousin, when you have done what you have to do, you can go at any time...... Have a good time. Narcissa smiled softly.
