Chapter Twenty-Five: 32 Brooms! (below)
Malfoy's fingers as he pinched his knife and fork turned a little white, and his body kept shaking, not knowing whether he was nervous or excited.
Zhang Xiao patted him on the shoulder and encouraged:
"Take it easy, you are the spokesperson and secretary of the Qingluan Society, it's not a big deal, if you really can't do it, you will imagine the people below as baboons!"
"Baboon?" Malfoy was amused, his stiff muscles finally relaxed, and he kept smoothing out any wrinkles in his robe.
And keep brushing his hair.
"Maybe they're cute and funny with their curly hair?"
Malfoy pursed his lips, adjusted the badge of the Qingluan Society on his chest again, and then took a deep breath, and slowly walked to the front of the rostrum under the eyes of everyone full of meaning.
Looking at the pairs of eyes staring at him below, Malfoy suddenly felt a little tightness in his throat, a feeling of dizziness, and he suddenly regretted it.
I knew that when Zhang asked him if he wanted to be the 'spokesperson', he didn't agree.
When people are nervous, their thinking always becomes very strange, and Malfoy suddenly remembered what Zhang Xiao taught him:
"Think of the people below as curly-haired baboons, because they're cute and hilarious."
Why don't you give it a try?
The little wizards below craned their heads to watch Malfoy stand motionless in front of the podium, wondering what he was going to do.
Malfoy suddenly couldn't help but laugh, a smile that seemed to sweep away the tension.
He cleared his throat, drew his wand and whispered to himself:
"Loud voice!"
With the blessing of the amplification spell, his voice resounded throughout the restaurant:
"Dear students, after Zhang's suggestion and the esteemed Headmaster Dumbledore agrees, our Qingluan Club adheres to the principle of fair play, higher, faster, and stronger.
Therefore, the ancient aristocracy of the East, the Zhang, the Malfoy family, the Zabini family, and the Shakel family, decided to donate the latest model of the broomstick light wheel 2001 to the school! ”
Zhang Xiao waved her wand again, and the outer packaging of the broom immediately opened neatly and fell off the ground, revealing a flying broom with a black and silver color scheme and smooth lines.
"Wow!!!" The little wizards let out a neat exclamation.
Malfoy grew more and more proud, and the amazement of the little wizards at this moment intoxicated him more than anything else, and he felt his body tremble, only this time not nervous, but excited.
Yes, that's what I want to feel, the real respect of other people, not the false flattery!
He raised his head and said loudly: "
These brooms will be donated fairly to each college! Each! A total of 32 light wheels 2001!
The aim is to improve the level of Quidditch teams in each house, so that students can experience a high level of competition in advance. ”
"Boom!" Like a volcanic eruption, the whole restaurant immediately boiled, and the little wizards stood up directly from the long table, clapping their hands desperately, and talking loudly to each other.
The professors who didn't get the news were also shocked by Slytherin's generosity, and the professors at Hogwarts were already very well paid.
But even so, 32 light wheels 2001 is an extremely large number.
Unless it's a 'veteran' like Professor Spencer, who has been with him for hundreds of years, if Hogwarts keeps paying him a salary.
Ron jumped up from his chair and slapped his hands so frantically that his hands were red, and he excitedly shouted to Harry:
"Harry! It's Halo 2001! Every academy has it! I'm Gryffindor's first goalkeeper substitute!
I didn't expect to be able to ride the latest broom once one day!
I don't think Malfoy is so annoying now! ”
Harry slapped his head in agreement, and everyone on the Quidditch team would be happy if nothing else.
Sure enough, Wood took off his college robe and frantically shook his clothes like a lasso.
Harry could understand Wood's excitement very well, Slytherin's two biggest strengths, the first being being well-equipped, and the second being the large number of small movements.
From the first time the Qingluan Society appeared in front of everyone, the Slytherin team no longer had to do those vile little actions.
If the disadvantage of the equipment is smoothed out, then everyone will be on the same starting line! It's about whose strength is stronger!
At this point, Wood is very confident!
Fred and George also hugged each other and shouted loudly:
"Slytherin has finally done a good thing!"
Hermione, on the other hand, wasn't very interested in Quidditch, she wanted to know more about it.
In the face of such an enthusiastic reaction, Malfoy couldn't help but be infecate, and a faint flush appeared on his pale face, he opened his hand, and even with the help of the amplification spell, he still roared with all his strength to suppress the cacophony in the restaurant.
"Now, on behalf of the Qingluan Society, I officially hand over these broomsticks to Hogwarts!"
The cheers of the young wizards grew louder and louder, and many of the professors couldn't help but slap their hands along with it, and Professor McGonagall smiled happily in a rare way, no one could do more than she wanted fair play and a higher level of play.
Only Lockhart's face was full of regret and chagrin, how good would it be if such a high-profile moment was his? Why didn't he join him in announcing the news?
Maybe it's going to be on the headlines of the Daily Prophet again!
In this warm atmosphere, Dumbledore slowly stood up from his high-backed chair, stretched out his hand and pressed down weakly, and the voice in the dining room gradually became quieter.
He couldn't help but smile faintly on his face, no magic was used, but the voice echoed throughout the restaurant:
"Ahh Yes, I understand your excitement, what a happy news.
As Headmaster of Hogwarts, I owe it to me to thank the Slytherins for such generosity. ”
Dumbledore nodded slightly towards the Slytherin table, but it was such a nodding gesture that made the Slytherins of the Qingluan Society happy!
Zhang Xiao couldn't help but smile, did Dumbledore finally stop stinging with his approval to the little snakes?
"I also agree with Mr. Draco Malfoy's Fair Play Guidelines, Higher, Faster, Stronger, and I want everyone to have a better game and enjoy Quidditch to the fullest.
Well, I know what you're looking forward to. You can't help but want to try these beautiful brooms, right?
If I had been a few years younger, I think I would have ridden them for a lap as well. ”
Dumbledore winked playfully at the young wizard below.
Everyone was told that their minds were broken, and they immediately let out embarrassed laughter.
"In that case. Brooms will be assigned to each house this afternoon! And I'm announcing that the first Quidditch match will be postponed for a while so that everyone has enough time to familiarize themselves with broomsticks! ”
Screams of cheers resounded throughout the dining room again, and this time Dumbledore didn't stop it.
The members of the Qingluan Society in the Slytherin break room cheered loudly to celebrate the success of the collective action, and even when they left the cafeteria, many of the young wizards from other houses would give their thumbs up and praise their actions when they saw the badges on their chests.
Just spent a little money but could get such a big recognition, which they didn't expect, it turned out that the money could still be spent like this?
Some purebloods who run workshops at home are already starting to think about donating other things, such as . Quill? Crucible? Parchment?
Not only can you gain a wave of respect, but also bring a generous order to the family's industry! Kill two birds with one stone!
It's just that this idea was immediately rejected by Zhang Xiao as soon as it was proposed, for a very simple reason.
More than enough is too much.
Donating a broomstick is already a top-level operation, and the donation is directly completed, unless Hogwarts lacks any necessary facilities in the future, it is possible to continue to do so.
In addition, the donation must be made to a school and a specific facility.
Ascending to Mien, fighting Mi hatred, blind donations can only cultivate hatred.
At this moment, he and Malfoy are sitting in their old positions, Malfoy has just experienced the debut of his life, and he is excited at the moment:
"Zhang, you didn't see it! I was so nervous that I thought that this speech was over, and then I suddenly remembered what you taught me. ”
Zhang Xiao picked up the class schedule and said casually:
"And then Draco?"
"Think of them as curly-haired baboons! You know what? ”
Malfoy's tears came out of his laughter, and he clutched his stomach and said:
"I saw it. Hundreds of them below. Hundreds of curly-haired baboons. Tilting his head and scratching his head to look at me. Hahahahaha"
Zhang Xiao glanced at him speechlessly, shifted his gaze to the suddenly changed class schedule, pointed to the above column, and whispered:
"Emergency Avoidance Training Course: Professor Snape"
What is this?
