Chapter Seventy-Eight: Distant Close Attacks and Various Breaks

"Now that these conditions have been met, what are we waiting for? Hurry up and apply for that dragon breeding license. ”

Harry looked optimistic.

Clark shook his head, he originally wanted to talk about the international trend involved in raising dragons, but after thinking about it, it didn't make sense to talk to him, so he told him directly: "These are only in terms of hardware, and we have to take into account the influence of external conditions." ”

"First of all, the four major families, their different circumstances and relationships, will inevitably lead them to have different views on the matter of raising dragons at Hogwarts."

Harry interjected and asked, "Then Mr. Ollivanders' wand shop has always cooperated with Hogwarts, and we freshmen buy wands from him, so he should support us."

"Childish!" Clarke was unceremoniously critical of Harry's idea.

"You can't expect a merchant to talk to you, and they're the only ones in the British wizarding world who sell wands, and even if they don't support the plan, the little wizards will still go to him to buy wands.

Besides, although Ollivander is very famous, he does not have much say in their family, he has a very strange temper and personality, he just guards a shop, and does not care much about family affairs.

However, I guess the Ollivanders family is at most neutral in this matter, as the downstream processing and sales side of the dragon industry chain, there is only benefit to them to have one more raw material supplier to compete, not harm. ”

Clark didn't know if Harry understood him, but he saw the guy nodding his head all the time.

"By the same token, the Slughorn family, who control the production of potions, should be considered neutral," Clark shouted as he saw Harry continue to nod.

"But!"

Harry was taken aback.

Unlike the Ollivanders, Professor Horace Slughorn has a lot of power in his family, and he had a deep connection to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a Potions teacher. So in the matter of raising dragons, we have a lot of room to win his support. ”

With that, he fixed his gaze on Harry.

"I found out that when Professor Horace Slughorn was teaching at Hogwarts, his favorite people were the famous, talented, and promising students of the future.

He established a so-called 'slug club' at the school, and everyone in it now has a lot of fame and status in the wizarding world. ”

"Harry,"

Clark called softly, his tone was very gentle, but Harry leaned forward to Hagrid in fear, hoping that his tall figure would give him a little security, after all, the meaning of Clarke's words was too scary.

"I ......," he refused, and before he could say anything, Clark said first:

"Who else in Hogwarts is there like you, the boy who never dies, the savior of the wizarding world, who is more worthy of his friendship? I think this Professor Slughorn would be happy to have this opportunity to woo you and turn you into a gem in his collection! ”

Listening to Clark's flattery to Harry, Malfoy on the side only felt that he was about to vomit in disgust.

Hermione, who was sitting on Clark's left hand, also felt a little uncomfortable, but Hagrid slapped her face and agreed with this sentence.

"Harry, Clark is right, you always have that kind of talent to make people like!"

Harry smiled awkwardly at this, but he was embarrassed to refuse, "Then what should I do?" Go see him? ”

"No, no, no, come to the door directly, it is abrupt, and it seems that we are very urgent, easy to be manipulated, you communicate with him by letter first, pay attention, it is an ordinary communication, we will get his favor first."

Harry scratched his head in embarrassment, and Clark said very considerately:

"Of course, Professor Horace Slughorn has a high level of potions, and you're too young to handle it. If you don't mind, I'll do the work, and I'll talk to Professor Horace Slughorn in your name. Anyway, he doesn't know who wrote the letter, you just need to come forward last. ”

Harry nodded his head busily when he heard this, and a smile appeared on Clarke's face.

Successfully solve one!

"After talking about these two, let's talk about the Crouch family, this one is not so difficult.

As the head of their family, Barty Crouch's influence is not as good as year by year, he has gained high prestige because of his public confrontation with Voldemort, and he was expected to compete for the Minister of Magic, but because his son was found to be a Death Eater, he could only be transferred to the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, and sat on the cold bench.

He is a serious person, he does things at a glance, he doesn't know how to be flexible, and he can participate in the dragon material industry chain, which undoubtedly represents the will of the Ministry of Magic, he is just a representative, so we don't need to think about convincing him, we just need to ask Professor Dumbledore to talk to Cornelius Fudge, the Minister of Magic. ”

Speaking of which, Clark began to talk about the last family he deliberately left behind: the Burke family.

"If there is one of the four families who is the most reluctant to see Hogwarts become a dragon farm, it must be the Bock family. In this family, there are shameless dark wizards, villains, scumbags, and thugs, who are like rats in the gutter, but they also have the most important smuggling link in the dragon chain. ”

"In fact, the dragon farm at Hogwarts will not interfere with their dragon material smuggling business in the early days, after all, there is only one dragon, but there will definitely be long-term people in the Bock family who can see the meaning of this matter itself, it has helped the dragon breeding business in Britain, and tore a hole in the blockade of foreign monopoly forces. Once the British dragon material is localized, these smuggled rats will surely turn into the dust of history. ”

"Do they dare to come and attack Hogwarts, there are some of the most powerful wizards in the wizarding world."

Malfoy couldn't help but retort, although he didn't like Dumbledore under his father's influence, he also had to admit that this one did shield them a lot.

"Of course they wouldn't dare," Clark reminded him, "but Dumbledore is invulnerable, and neither is the Headmaster of Hogwarts, and we can despise the enemy strategically, and we must pay attention to the enemy tactically." ”

"I'm saying all this to make you pay attention to it, it's not for you Hagrid to report to Professor Dumbledore, and he will help you get things done properly.

We have to be prepared, although I don't know what kind of tricks those enemies will use, but we must be careful, after all, this matter is not something that can be done in a while, and the construction of the dragon breeding farm alone, plus the application for a dragon breeding license, will take more than half a year.

There are so many opportunities to thwart and thwart, and of course, with me here, I believe that our goal will be achieved, and Hogwarts will become the first magic school in the world to have a dragon! ”

Clarke's words are inspiring, uplifting, and the final ending is even more imposing, as if it is integrated with the future of Hogwarts as a whole.
