Lucius put down the phone, and at the moment he only had deep doubts and puzzles in his heart, and soon he thought of a possibility.

The possibility of making him creepy.

Calming down, Lucius solemnly took out a yellow talisman folded into a triangle from his bosom and lit it according to his previous instructions.

At the foot of Dragon and Tiger Mountain, Zhang Chengdao, who was packing up his things, stopped moving.

Turning his face to Li Qingshu, he said, "Madam, Lucius has contacted me, I'll go see what's going on." ”

Out of the courtyard gate, the young heavenly master took a step in the direction of the void, and only one step was like walking into the void, and when he reappeared, he had already arrived at the Feixiantai of Shanglong Tiger Mountain a few miles away.

It is what Zhang Xiao called 'ultra-long-distance flashing' into inches.

Zhang Chengdao walked out of Feixiantai and found a secluded and uninhabited place, so he took out his satellite phone.

You can't use a mobile phone on Longhu Mountain, and if you want to make a call, you can only come to the worldly Longhu Mountain, which is also a way to do it.

The phone was connected quickly, almost as soon as it was dialed out, and it seemed that Lucius was in a hurry.

Zhang Chengdao thought thoughtfully.

Sure enough, after answering the phone, Lucius threw out a 'bombshell'.

"What? Fudge wants to ban East-West trade? And the Ministry of Magic franchise? ”

Zhang Chengdao:

Just this little thing?

Lucius said worriedly:

"Yes, the news we are getting now is that the Ministry of Magic deliberately let the wind out, leaving us time to react and negotiate.

Now the people on the British side are waiting for news from us. ”

Zhang Chengdao was silent for a while, but he still couldn't hold back, and asked curiously:

"Can the Ministry of Magic ban it? And it's not only possible to trade in the UK, but also to other countries? “

"I can't ban it—but it can affect it," Lucius' tone was a little helpless, and he whispered, "The Ministry of Magic never thought it would be able to ban this transaction.

But the problem is that the Ministry of Magic can label anything from the East as illegal, so that it becomes a ticking time bomb.

Mr. Zhang, do you understand when I say that? ”

Zhang Chengdao let out a 'hmm' and asked strangely, "None of you can unite to get the Ministry of Magic to remove this order?" ”

When they cooperated before, these purebloods behaved like they were shadow ministers, underground kings, but now it's just that the Ministry of Magic is ready to issue an order, and they can't do it?

After Lucius's detailed explanation, Zhang Chengdao roughly understood what was happening.

At the end of the day, it's because of Voldemort.

Because of his 'unsuccessful' son, the pureblood has actually split, and he used to maintain a passable face, but as soon as Master Zhang Shaotian did this, the pureblood began to stand in line by himself.

It's not that there is nothing that wants to ride the wall to see the direction of the wind.

But the secret war between the two sides, the first thing that is not there is the grass on the wall, except for those families who have always been neutral and do not want to participate, the power balance of purebloods is about 6:1:3

It can only be said that the advantages are huge.

After more than two years of continuous suppression and cannibalization, those extreme purebloods kept shrinking, and it seemed that it was 7:2.

But at this time, a situation-changing event broke out - the Azkaban mass prison break.

Because the escape from prison directly announced the resurgence of Voldemort's power, coupled with the vicious events that broke out at Hogwarts for two consecutive years, it shows that Voldemort is not dead, maybe in a very bad state, but if he is not dead, he is not dead.

This immediately caused panic among a large number of purebloods, who were not afraid of Fudge, not afraid of the Ministry of Magic, but they were afraid of Voldemort.

Because Voldemort is really going to kill.

After a series of betrayals, the complex activities of taking sides.

At this moment, the strength of the two sides is equal, or Zhang Xiao's side is slightly weaker.

It can only be said that Dumbledore's influence is indeed strong, and he has publicly praised and favored the enlightened pure-bloods many times.

This, coupled with the fact that Voldemort is still invisible, and most importantly - Lucius Malfoy's preference to run to China rather than return to the extreme camp has given enlightened purebloods great confidence.

Even that old fox Lucius didn't defect, so what should we run from?

The golden Galleon is really fragrant.

So the purebloods never worried about the Ministry of Magic, they were afraid of Voldemort.

Zhang Chengdao quietly listened to Lucius finish talking about the reason, and said calmly:

"So you mean, this time the Ministry of Magic issued this decree, and it was actually Voldemort who ordered the extreme purebloods to make it?"

Lucius on the other side of the phone heard Voldemort, and his heart stopped beating, and it had been a long time since someone had heard the name say it.

Trying to calm the fear in his heart, Lucius whispered:

"I'm afraid yes, if it were just a simple ban on trade between East and West, it would be just another stupid thing for the Ministry of Magic to do.

The key is the second one-" Lucius swallowed: "Exclusively by the Ministry of Magic-"

"Oh" Zhang Chengdao understands in his heart, franchise, it's not new, everyone who understands understands.

"It seems that you already understand that the Ministry of Magic's franchise is a feast open to some people, and in fact, the Ministry of Magic controls only one business, and that is Floo powder.

We have reason to believe that it's the ones — those Voldemort's lackeys who are playing tricks behind their backs.

That is, Fudge is likely to already be someone on the other side. ”

Lucius was in a state of weakness when he said 'Voldemort's lackeys', and he only felt that the Dark Mark on his arm was hot.

It turns out that this is the case, the relationship is actually not complicated, Zhang Chengdao touched his chin, in fact, Fudge or extreme pure-blood made a mistake.

They thought that Dongfang was greedy for huge profits in this area, and they were determined that the Daomen was reluctant to do this business.

In fact, Daomen didn't want to do this business at all, and he had no interest in going abroad to make money, so he came up with this East-West trade.

There is only one reason.

That is what the little Heavenly Master Zhang Xiao needs, because Zhang Xiao wants to change Slytherin, so the Daomen will help him unite the majority and release a piece of fat.

What kind of treatment is this? Zhang Chengdao's eyes were red with envy.

I haven't been treated like this by the Daomen, and I can do whatever I want.

That is, Xiaoxiao's kid is not sensible and doesn't know how big his face is.

It can only be said that Fuji and those gangs of extremely pure-blooded people made the wrong move, and they hit it crookedly, and Zhang Chengdao had a headache.

If this business is thrown away directly, it doesn't matter if the Daomen is done, but it is a little difficult for Zhang Xiao to do.

Because the whole alliance is actually based on interests, counting on these purebloods to unite for some ideas, one or two maybes, such as the Longbottom family, but most of them don't tell you any ideas.

They only recognize the family, and they only recognize interests.

I thought that so many purebloods combined would be enough to resist any external influences.

In fact, it is true, the extreme purebloods who have been suppressed like that before have not dared to mention that they want to rob the trade between the East and the West.

It's just that as soon as Voldemort appeared, those extreme pure-bloods seemed to have found a backer, and they turned over in an instant, and the change was so big.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Chengdao decided to ask his son's opinion.

"Okay, I see, uh-huh, that's all."

Zhang Xiao relied on the strength of her legs to hang on the horizontal bar, put away the clairvoyant mirror in her hand, and her father brought bad news.

Purebloods know much more about their virtues than their fathers.

To be honest, after Voldemort resurrected again, it was very surprising that there were so many purebloods who could insist on staying.

He originally thought it would be nice to have a thirty percent stay.

But it's hard to say how many of those who stayed were undercover agents or something.

It's okay to laugh at Voldemort, but it's okay to look down on Tom's deterrence and hard power.

As one of the pinnacles of power, Voldemort's power still has a card, and with it, extreme purebloods do have confidence.

Jumping off the horizontal bar, Zhang Xiao was naked, and the beads of sweat condensed together in the process of rolling down, leaving water stains.

Zhang Xiao pushed open the bathroom door, lay comfortably on his back in the sink, and began to think about how to deal with the Ministry of Magic's move next.

I have to say that those purebloods picked a very good time.

The situation is complicated, but in the complex it is only a 'level' of tens of thousands of people.

With the strength of his previous life for many years, he can still sort it out when he obtains enough information.

The original source is probably that his conversation with Dumbledore gave Dumbledore a new idea.

The headmaster, who was originally overwhelmed by the West and invincible in the world, faced the Ministry of Magic with a completely appeasement policy, and there was only compromise left except for compromise.

So much so that Fudge became more and more arrogant, and even dared to send Dementors directly to the campus, which also indirectly contributed to Fudge's refusal to admit that Voldemort had returned, and to imagine that Dumbledore was trying to seize his ministerial position.

If Fudge had made a decision to prepare for the battle after the Goblet of Fire had ended, the situation would not have developed to the way it was later.

This was the main reason why he tried to persuade Dumbledore not to compromise like this.

Dumbledore listened, and stood up, and Lucius told himself that Dumbledore was almost going to do it when Fudge wanted to interrogate Hagrid.

Fudge was frightened and took the crooked path in the original book ahead of time, that is, Dumbledore wanted his place.

How could Fudge, who had just tasted power, stand it?

The original favorite was Barty Crouch, who was not favored, but the Longbottom case deprived Barty Crouch of his chance, and Fudge was put on the throne.

He'd never enjoyed being touted!

The power turned out to be so wonderful!

Then it intensified, how could the 'awakened' Dumbledore let Fudge come after the Dementors 'happened' to pass by the Hogholtz Express.

Fudge finally touched Dumbledore's bottom line - not to involve his students.

So Dumbledore decided to give Fudge a warning, and that was impeachment.

In fact, Zhang Xiao thinks that it is better not to warn at all, and it is the best choice to change the minister directly, whether it is Scrimgeour or Barty Crouch, they are a hundred times more reliable than Fudge.

But Dumbledore was the rule-abiding Dumbledore after all.

The Dementor incident could only warn him, but he couldn't make a move to change the minister directly.

But this impeachment frightened Fudge, he thought that Dumbledore was real, so in order to keep his power, he could only choose one side of the force, so who?

It's impossible to stand on Zhang Xiao's side, who doesn't know that this student from China is Dumbledore's 'favorite student'?

Since the enlightened purebloods can't stand in line, there is only one answer, which is extreme purebloods.

Zhang Xiao completely sorted out the whole thing in her mind and sighed softly.

In the end, those extreme pure-bloods are all stirring sticks, they don't dare to fight openly, hiding behind Fudge and secretly rubbing things around.

Even if something happens, the black cauldron is Fudge's back, isn't this a-stirring stick?

Phew, I'm not that pickled!

Zhang Xiao buried his head in the water, feeling the tranquility of being surrounded by water – a way of relaxing and thinking that he loved very much.

So how do I break the game?

Dad seemed to think of something, but he didn't say it, and instead threw the problem to himself.

Is it a small exam?

Well. First of all, the trade model between the East and the West, the first thing that Daomen is open to the West is all kinds of raw materials and other things, and the finished products are mainly some high-end handicrafts.

For example, beautiful palace lamps, decorations, high-end clothes - don't underestimate these things, these finished products are luxury goods and the like, which are very profitable.

And the raw materials are even more incredible, the wizarding world is solidified, and if you want to promote the development of all walks of life, the best thing is to have new materials.

The new materials from the East have given great impetus to many industries such as potions and alchemy.

In the past two years, a lot of new things have come out, and this is the change brought about by the East.

If that's all there is to it, then Daomen is completely in trade surplus with the West, but what's the use of Daomen asking for gold gallons?

In addition to leaving the necessary ones, Daomen simply spent those Galleons and exchanged them for things to bring back, such as broomsticks, alchemy products, and potions.

That is, the picture is fresh, and I want to see if the stones of other mountains can attack jade.

So who earned the Garon of the Daomen flower?

The answer is - a pure-blood who cooperates with the Daomen!

So those purebloods actually earned twice, which is the main reason why they would rather take the risk than leave!

Huge profits!

Waiting for Zhang Xiao to get out of the water, he suddenly laughed annoyedly, isn't the answer quite simple?

Yes, the Ministry of Magic is the United States in the wizarding world, has the ability to influence the entire wizarding world, and is the center of the wizarding world, which is why Fudge is so greedy for power.

But can he influence the East?

What do purebloods want? It's Garon! And not cargo!

So it's good to have a place where both parties can trade, where those raw materials can be processed directly, and the goods brought can also be delivered directly.

It's that simple, all you need is an offshore settlement center.

You don't even have to think about the location - Xiangjiang!

Slowly dressed, Zhang Xiao had already put aside the question he had just figured out.

Now I have more important things to do.

Looking at the journal in front of him.

Then it's time to look into the dark arts!
