Somewhere in the east of England, on the edge of a cliff with the crashing waves crashing against the cliffs on the shore, and the low dark clouds seemed to be about to fall to the sea, a dark and ruined lighthouse stood on the edge of the cliff.

Many tourists who drive along the seaside road decide to explore and visit the lighthouse when they see this postmodern Gothic-style lighthouse in the distance. However, when they approached the lighthouse, they unknowingly forgot all the information about the lighthouse not far away, and left the place with one foot on the accelerator.

A figure in a black travel cloak snapped out of thin air on the side of the road. He looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, muttered a ghost weather, and walked along the path that led to the lighthouse.

Unlike those who could not get under the lighthouse, today's visitors walked one step at a time on the wet and muddy paths, and if someone looked closely, they would see that the shoes on the visitor's feet were not stained on the dirt road.

When the visitor was still quite far from the lighthouse, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed, and a huge manor house built on the edge of the cliff appeared in front of him. Looking beyond the wall of holly trees, visitors see the roof of a splendid building.

Just then, the gates of the manor opened, and an elderly wizard stood behind the gate to greet visitors. He was dressed in a well-cut robe, the white hair on his head was meticulously combed, and his turquoise eyes were full of excitement and a hint of anxiety in his sunken eye sockets.

"Welcome, Your Excellency." The owner of the manor greeted the visitor.

"Thank you very much for having me, Mr. Smith." Lucius Malfoy replied to the owner of the manor.

Malfoy was a little surprised that the owner of the manor came out to greet him personally, usually this kind of welcome and send-off thing is done by the butlers, and it is rare for the owner to come to the gate to greet him in person, unless it is the Dark Lord himself who is visiting.

Malfoy had a little guess about the hospitality of the owner of the manor.

After a brief greeting, Smith led Malfoy to the main building in the middle of the manor.

In front of the main building of the manor is a huge garden filled with various ornamental herbs. In Malfoy's experience, he could see that in this well-designed garden, different herbs take on different landscapes throughout the year as the seasons change, and different herbs bloom, bear fruit and change leaf color.

Halfway through the two, Smith asked Malfoy, "Mr. Malfoy, how do you think my garden compares to the garden of your Malfoy Manor?" ”

"Sure enough!" Malfoy sighed in his heart, after his family's Majiazhuang, which was once known as the "No. 1 Manor in Great Britain", was burned down, the Shijiazhuang, which was originally ranked second, climbed to the first place by stepping on the devastated Majiazhuang. How could Smith, who has been the "second child" for so many years, let go of this opportunity to raise his eyebrows.

It's just that the Malfoy family, who are in the middle of the road, will not be able to restore the former glory of Majiazhuang in the near future, and now it is good that their family does not grow vegetables in the garden to reduce expenses.

Along the way, Smith kept showing off to his old rival, who had been crushing him for years, on the pretext of asking Malfoy about the layout of the estate.

And Lao Ma is not the kind of young man who only knows how to fight for a while, so he followed the other party's words and began to praise Shi Jiazhuang.

It wasn't until the two came to the living room of the main building of Shijiazhuang that they stopped blowing each other.

"Welcome to His Excellency the Minister of Magic."

The guests in the living room, who had been waiting for a long time, stood up to greet Malfoy.

Malfoy, who had already taken off his cloak in the foyer, was also meticulously dressed today, and in this kind of gathering with the patriarchs of various families, the way one dressed was the same as his attitude towards the party and the people who attended.

If Voldemort had sent Snape to such a party, he would have washed his head in the sink for half an hour.

Malfoy looked around the people in the parlor and found that the Wellcombe family, the largest potions manufacturer in Britain, and the patriarch of the family, which was engaged in the cultivation and sale of herbs represented by the Smith family, were all present, and the patriarch of the Bentley family, the largest shareholder of Britain's local manufacturers of broomsticks, and other families engaged in handicrafts were ninety percent, and the rest were all princes in their respective fields of industry and commerce such as crucibles, clothing, and catering.

It can be said that these people in the living room now control the vast majority of the production of domestic goods in the British magical society other than wands.

The Malfoy family, on the other hand, used to be a wholesale agent for food sales in the wizarding world.

After greeting each other, Malfoy took out a stack of books with black covers, and he took out his wand and clicked on them, and one book flew automatically in front of everyone.

"First of all, on behalf of my master, His Excellency the Great Dark Lord, I would like to present a gift to you." Malfoy said to the crowd.

Smith was the first to take the book floating in front of him, startled when he saw the author's name on the cover.

Smith cautiously asked, "Lord Malfoy, is this book really written by Salazar Slytherin?" ”

"That's right." Malfoy nodded lightly and said, "As a descendant of Slytherin, His Excellency the Dark Lord naturally owns Slytherin's writings. As a sign of his sincerity in working with you, my master has selected some of Slytherin's creations as gifts. ”

For a magical family, the most precious thing is always all kinds of magical knowledge.

Although Slytherin's writings contain magical knowledge from millennia, this knowledge is the basis for the various magical knowledge that has developed on top of it over the next millennia. If you master this knowledge, you will continue to innovate like Gree, which has mastered the core technology.

And this "core technology" is often an unpassed secret within each family, and it is the foundation of a family's foothold in the wizarding world.

The stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade. With this knowledge of Slytherin, the families in this room can build a stronger foundation for their families.

Now that Voldemort has given such a big gift all of a sudden, the bosses of various families, who know the truth of "courtesy to others, must ask for something", have to be more cautious about today's party.

At that time, Zhang opened up the situation in one fell swoop by virtue of the knowledge exchange between the East and the West, so that almost all the families who were not stubborn accepted his affection and turned a blind eye to some of his actions.

Now Voldemort, in order to completely pull these families into his chariot, has also used his old ways to buy people's hearts.

After all, Slytherin's knowledge is within the same system, and its effect on them is far greater than that of knowledge from another system.

It's just that if everyone here knew that all of the Slytherin writings in Voldemort's hands came from Zhangjialou, I don't know if they would also count this favor on Zhang's head by the way.

Bentley flipped a few pages of the book in his hand and immediately put it away, and then asked Malfoy, "Please convey the gratitude and respect from the Bentley family to His Excellency the Dark Lord on my behalf, may I ask what we can do for His Excellency the Dark Lord?" ”
