Chapter 42 Chairman of the Board of Trustees
"Lucius Malfoy, you two-faced traitor!"
In the school board room, Yaxley, who fell to the ground, shouted angrily at Lucius.
Yaxley's strength is actually quite good, and when he is hit by a double blow from the spell he emitted, he can also use an iron armor spell at the last moment, negating most of the damage of the spell. This allowed him to still retain the strength to scold Lucius.
Listening to Yaxley's scolding, Lucius did not change his face, and said to Dracula seriously: "Mr. Dracula, these few people who tried to attack you in vain have committed serious crimes, and I suggest that they all be sent to Azkaban to rehabilitate themselves. ”
Draco, who was standing next to Lucius, looked at his father with his face wide open. He couldn't have imagined that his father, who had always been an aristocratic and dog-like person, could make such a sassy operation!
Jaxley struggled to his feet from the ground, and was about to curse Lucius a few more times. However, Dracula waved his hand out of thin air and threw him into the corner of the conference room like a fly, stacking it with the grieving trustees and turning on silence mode for them.
"It's a lot quieter now." Dracula nodded in satisfaction and looked at Lucius, who was calm but trembling, "Tell me what you think, Mr. Malfoy." ”
"Mr. Dracula, you can call me Lucius." Lucius said with a smirk.
"I propose that those who have offended you, or to put it another way, send those who have disturbed the normal order of the school board meeting to Azkaban for repentance. I have a lot of evidence of their transgressions that I can do for the purity and cleanliness of the Hogwarts Board of Governors! ”
Lucius said these words calmly, his face not red and his heart did not beat.
He's all too familiar with this kind of selling teammates! When Voldemort fell and the Ministry of Magic liquidated the Death Eaters, he betrayed many of his teammates who were also Death Eaters, poured out all kinds of information about them, and donated a large amount of gold Galleons.
Since then, the Malfoy family has abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and they are still good friends of the Ministry of Magic!
It didn't matter if he sold Yaxley and the other school directors today, after all, he didn't have much friendship with these people in the first place, and there was also a competition between pure-blood families. Now is the right time to take this opportunity to make a wave of competitors.
Dracula looked at Lucius with a sanctimonious face, and had to sigh, this is really a talent!
"That's a good idea, I'm optimistic about you, Lucius." He said to Lucius, "But I vaguely remember what you said when you first came?" Say I like corporal punishment and want to expel me from Hogwarts? ”
Lucius's face remained unchanged, and he turned and slapped his son on the head.
Draco had just been poked with the board badge in Lucius's hand, and now he had slapped him hard, looking at him in disbelief, his eyes full of tears of grievance.
"Dad, why did you hit me?"
"Listen to me, don't talk!"
Lucius whispered a reminder to Draco, then looked at Dracula in a serious manner and said:
"Mr. Dracula, I've looked into it. It was Draco who wasn't happy with your handling of his violation of the school rules, so he wrote a report letter and a questionnaire with a few Slytherin friends. Whistleblower letters and questionnaires are full of slander against you! ”
"After verification, I am convinced that there is nothing wrong with what you are doing, and I retract the unscrupulous words that I want to expel you." He said, "Draco is a child, please don't be like him, and be considerate of a child who is in a rebellious period." ”
"I'm not a rebellious child!" Unconvinced, Draco retorted loudly.
But he was greeted by another slap in the head from Lucius, which directly stunned him. After a long pause, Draco reacted and leaned on a chair beside the round table and wept bitterly.
With a playful smile on his face, Dracula said to Lucius, "Then your efficiency is really high!" In just ten minutes, the truth of this matter has been investigated without leaving home. ”
"Of course." Lucius didn't pick out the hidden thoughts of Dracula's words in the slightest, but continued to say seriously, "You don't have to worry about me! ”
Looking at Lucius's solemn and reserved expression, Dracula finally smiled.
"Lucius, you're a very interesting person." He smiled and pulled over a chair and sat down, leaning back casually, "Then help me think about where this Hogwarts Board of Trustees is going to go?" ”
Lucius was ecstatic to hear Dracula ask this question, but on the surface he remained unmoved.
"In my opinion, the Hogwarts Board of Trustees is still very necessary." He paused for a moment, then slowly expressed his opinion, "Hogwarts is a school of witchcraft and wizardry with a complete ecology, and many of its tasks require a special coordination department. ”
"The Board of Trustees, as the primary funder and collective decision-making body of the school, is able to provide financial support and sound development advice for these complex projects. Of course, I know that you will certainly not be short of this insignificant amount of money. However, in the collective, every appropriation must be meaningful and in line with the process, otherwise internal employees are easy to develop the behavior of evasion and evasion. All kinds of signing, co-ordinating, and bookkeeping work will definitely delay your time. ”
Lucius's words cut to the heart – that Dracula hates the boring trivia that is routinely repeated over and over again, and that's an essential part of any well-run organization.
"So I think you can still leave the school board and let us help you with some chores and chores as much as we can, so that these tasks don't delay your precious time." Lucius continued,
"Of course, as the one who controls the entire magical system of Hogwarts Castle, you will definitely be the chairman of our school board, and you have the right to veto all affairs!"
Hearing about the veto, Dracula finally became interested.
"But as far as I know, there are a total of twelve board badges." He looked at Lucius and asked, "After eliminating those people piled up in the corner, you now only have seven school directors left, how are you going to distribute the remaining five badges?" ”
"Mr. Dracula, the appointment of these school board members is, of course, assigned to you, as the chairman." Lucius smiled.
