Fudge's office is connected to the assistant's office.
After sending Barty in.
The door was not closed.
So the young assistant can hear the conversation inside, originally he, as a person who serves Fudge, knows Fudge's attitude, and thinks that Fudge will definitely suppress Barty, but when he hears that Fudge is going to send Barty to the "centaur office", he is still shocked!
That's the centaur office!
It is known that no centaur will use this service, and if anyone in the Ministry of Magic is sent to this department, then he is not far from being fired.
Although Barty, as the Ministry of Magic who almost became a minister, was not good to be fired.
But if you go to the centaur office......
That......
Then it can be said that there will be absolutely no chance of promotion again! This is simply a complete break from the "political career"!
Arguably.
Fudge asked Barty to choose this, which was almost a proper insult.
The assistant felt that even if Barty was a person who followed the process at all times, he should be angry at this time, and even wanted to punch Fudge, right?
Thinking so, he slowly got up and prepared to pull the rack.
And yetβ
What surprised him even more was that.
Barty didn't get into a fight as he expected.
On the contrary, he was still calm, although his face was a little ugly, but he still nodded calmly: "Okay, I am willing." β
As soon as this remark came out.
Not to mention a young assistant.
Even Fudge's eyes widened for a moment: "What? You, you promised? That's ...... Oh no, hahaha, Barty, this is a good position, although it is said that the centaurs will not use this office, but it is someone else, Barty, I still trust your ability, I believe that with your joining, the centaur office will not be said to be vacant again......"
Fortunately......
Although Fudge is useless, as a professional politician, he still has the level of changing faces.
Almost instantly.
The indifference, contempt, and rejection on his fat face disappeared, and was replaced by happiness from the heart.
So much so that his chubby body suddenly stood up from his chair.
Walked up to Barty and patted Barty on the shoulder: "Really, Barty, do a good job, I am optimistic about you, as long as you make achievements in the centaur office, I will definitely give you a promotion......"
"I'll try." Barty nodded, "Shall I go over now?" β
"Don't worry, it's all off work now, and you will officially go to work tomorrow, well, I'll transfer you the personnel appointment now...... Haha......"
Fudge still couldn't help but want to laugh.
I always felt in my heart that this moment removed the threat of a minister's position.
So much so that there was the fastest appointment in his life, and as he finalized it, Barty didn't stay long, saying goodbye and leaving the Ministry of Magic.
"Hahaha, go and inform the Magical Creatures Management and Control Division, remember, it must be sorted out for Barty's centaur office tomorrow!" Fudge hummed a song, and when he finished speaking, an apparition vanished.
And the young assistant did not delay.
He couldn't help it for a long time.
It's a good time to gossip with friends, or even make an appointment with a reporter to make some extra money, after all, a man who was once the most promising minister of magic is now taking the initiative to go to the centaur office.
Gee......
Breaking news!
β¦β¦
Evening newspapers of all kinds tend to be later than the normal closing time.
It's just to prevent the news from being missed.
After all......
The morning and afternoon newspapers basically finish the day's events, and the evening newspapers are all about astrological signs, commentaries, and the like...... So when the assistant went to the newspaper, the reporters hadn't left work yet.
So......
That evening's Evening Prophet changed the headline:
Barty Crouch Returns to the Ministry of Magic as Head of the Centaur Office
A photograph of Barty Crouch is placed in the most prominent place.
Here's what's below.
First, he gave a detailed introduction to his life:
γ (This chapter is not finished!) )
"166" Pureblood teamed up to compete for the market
The former director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement was extremely powerful in the Ministry of Magic, and even Cornelius Fudge was a head short in front of him, and was once known as the most promising person to become the Minister of Magic.
But because his son was a Death Eater, he ruined the ministerial election, and instead let the least regarded Fudge take the position, and he also stepped down from the position of director of the powerful Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and was transferred to the director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, which is quite clear.
But even so.
He still has a chance to run for Minister of Magic again.
And yetβ
Recently, because Sirius was overturned, he, the chief judge who directly imprisoned Sirius in Azkaban without trial, was unlucky again and was suspended for investigation.
Of course, in theory, there is still a chance to make a comeback.
Can......
What the hell is the head of the centaur office?
"Even if you want to return to the Ministry of Magic, you shouldn't agree to go to this office, Barty Crouch has taken a streak!" This is what the author of the article said.
And after that.
He explained in detail why he said it was a faint chess - naturally the centaurs never used this office, only people who were about to be fired would be transferred here, and even this office was empty all year round, and the room was used as a utility room or something......
Ultimately.
This author makes a judgment:
"No matter what Barty Crouch thinks about getting to this point, I am sure that his political career is over, and even if he is not fired, his achievements in this life will stop at the head of this centaur office!"
I have to say......
Barty Crouch is known to many British wizards as the Ministry of Magic***.
Of course.
And not only English wizards.
Because his last official position was the director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, many foreign wizards also knew his name.
The Prophet Evening will also be distributed in France and Germany.
So......
The news quickly made waves in the wizarding world......
β¦β¦
Syllable!
Bobin Pharmacy.
York μ· Bobin stood in front of the door, slapping the newspaper on the doorframe and staring blankly at the opposite side - the dazzling neon of the two-fold magic shop almost blinded his eyes.
People selling medicine are still coming in an endless stream.
Especially with the delivery of the Hogwarts new student notice, along with the distribution of the senior textbook notice, more families came to buy potions.
Pity.
I used to come to Bobin.
But now......
People go to the other side β even if it's buying raw materials like powders. @η²Ύε\/Shuge*First update~~
"How so...... Aren't they out of supply of raw materials, why did they suddenly ......" Bobin's face was unusually ugly.
Originally, after the family meeting.
He returned to the shop.
Plans to fight a protracted battle with the two-fold magic shop.
And this premise is that after investigation in the family, it was found that the future leader Potions Company was not in supply of medicinal materials, and there was a shortage of some potions.
But......
"Is this a lack of medicinal herbs? Have you ever seen a person who lacks medicinal materials not only make up for the previous shortage of potions, but also openly sell raw materials? β
Bobin felt like he couldn't figure it out at all.
Opposite side......
Why is it suddenly available again? And there is no longer a bit of decline.
In this case.
How to fight a protracted war?
You may be able to afford it for a month, but what if it's more than a month? What if the future leader Potions Company was not short of potions materials at all? That family can continue to sell well for two or three months...... Even for a year or two, can the Bobin family afford to consume energy?
To know!
At this moment, it's not just Diagon Alley that is affected by a Bobin pharmacy!
It's that Bobin pharmacies across the UK have been affected!
Even the foreign wizarding community knew that the future leader of the United Kingdom, Potions Company, sold potions at a discount, so they used various means to come to Diagon Alley and buy potions in large quantities......
One company resisted the demand from all over the UK.
Self. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Family......
What do you take to fight with others? Take the herbs and potions that rot in your hands? Yes, it was hard currency, but the market price of hard currency has now completely collapsed!
Go on like this......
The family capital chain will be broken!
Think so.
Bobin looked back at the newspaper: "Barty Crouch, is such a man of birth and ability going to fall to such a point?" Originally, I thought that after Fudge stepped down, he might take office......"
"If it weren't for Ringo Shelby discovering Peter Pettigrew and turning the eucalyptus for Sirius Black, Crouch wouldn't have been suspended...... He must hate Ringo Shelby! But why...... Resigned to fate? β
"I willingly became the head of the centaur office."
"Doesn't he want revenge?"
"Or does he think he can't compete with Ringo Shelby?"
Bobin is in a weird state right now.
On the one hand.
He wants to find an opportunity to take out the future leader Potions.
But on the other hand.
He was already frustrated inside.
Thinking that it was impossible to take down the company, he began to make amends for himself, so much so that he linked Barty Crouch to Ringo.
and comforted himself that Barty didn't dare to fight with Ringo.
Neither should you ...... yourself
"That's right! Maybe I should have given up, I can't fight that genius ......" Bobin belittled himself, "If only I had agreed to cooperate with him, I wouldn't have ended up where I am todayβ"
The words did not fall.
Several wizards dressed in luxurious costumes came into his view. Initial Update@
That's why.
It's because he knows this guy.
The one at the front was named Cook Selwyn, followed by Amicus Caro, Elon Rozier, and Horresius Travers, all of whom undoubtedly came from a twenty-eight pure-blood family, and they had also formed a potions company some time ago.
It's a peer.
Bobin had thought they would go to the two-fold potion shop.
But the weird thing is.
The group turned a corner, and walked directly towards them, and it didn't take long for them to come to the door, and Cook Selwyn, who was the first to start, smiled: "Boss Bobin, what's the matter?" Did you know we were coming, and you came to greet us? β
"Selwyn......" Bobin frowned, "do you have anything to do?" β
"Door-to-door medicine." Selwyn shrugged gentlemanly, "There's no reason not to let customers in, right?" β
"I don't believe you're going to come to me to sell medicine."
Bobin snorted coldly.
But he still got out of the way and said as he walked inside, "What the hell is going on?" Let's just put it bluntly, I don't have the heart to go around the corner with you. β
Syllable!
He threw the newspaper to the ground.
It's a pity that it hasn't landed yet.
was beckoned by Selwyn and entered his hand, and then Selwyn glanced at it and smiled: "Tsk, who would have thought that Crouch would go to the centaur office, it is really self-destructive." β
"It doesn't have to be self-destructive." Carlo followed, "After all, he wasn't meant to be suspended. β
"If it weren't for some ignorant kid turning over someone else, Crouch would definitely be a strong contender for the next Minister of Magic." Travers pouted, "You said that kid turned out to be a Slytherin, the Sorting Hat must be broken, how can this kind of troublemaker be a Slytherin!" β
"Hehe, when he encountered a basilisk, why wasn't he killed directly? This also saves the market from disrupting the market......"
A few people, you and I, one sentence.
quickly frowned at what Bobin said: "Is it really okay for you to insult a teenager like this in front of an outsider like me?" β
"No, how can Boss Bobin be considered an outsider?" Selwyn regained his gentleness, "The enemy of the enemy is a friend, what, doesn't the boss Bobin grit his teeth with hatred for this Shelby?" β
"Look at the other side, how prosperous, look at this place again, I'm afraid we are the first people to come to the door in the last few days, right?" Carlo knocked on the table, "Boss Bobin, you're a pure-blood, this kind of thing." (This chapter is not finished!) )
"166" Pureblood teamed up to compete for the market
Love, can you bear it? Let a mudblooded bully ......"
Bobin fell silent.
Originally, he had already planned to put out the mind of fighting Shelby.
Now it is on fire by this group of people.
The anger in his heart had come up again, of course, not only to the two-fold magic shop and Shelby, but also to the group of people in front of him.
"You'd better state your intentions now." He said coldly, "Otherwise, I'll be closing the door!" β
"Tsk, Boss Bobin is so cold." Selwyn chuckled, but stopped talking nonsense, but got straight to the point, "Okay, then I'll be blunt, we're here to seek cooperation." β
"Cooperation?"
Since the last time Ringo asked for cooperation.
Bobin on the word.
Exceptionally sensitive.
He looked at the group, "What do you mean?" β
"You know, we also have a potions company, but we specialize in selling patented potions, and although we are not in the same battlefield as the future leader potions company, we are also extremely affected by the sudden drop in the price of potions in the market." Selwyn found a place and sat opposite Bobin, "I've been following you lately, it seems that Bobin is in a disadvantage in the battle between Bobin's Pharmacy and the future leader Potions Company, and I can't see any hope for you to regain your strength for the time being, in this case, it is better to ......"
"Why not as good as what?"
"How about we go to the high-end potions market together?"
"High-end potions market?" Something immediately occurred to Bobin, "You want our Bobin family's patented potion?" β
"No, we don't want to, we just want to join forces, presumably if we keep fighting, the Bobin family's capital chain will not be able to hold on, right? It's better to rely on the patented potion to feed back, and as a cooperation, we can also use your raw material origin ......"
Selwyn crossed Erlang's legs:
"In other words, how about using the money earned from the patented potions to continue the potion price war with the future leader Potions Company?"
