Chapter 489
"Huck is looking for me?" Wayne asked in surprise, "Is he short of money again?"
Mr. Jim Huck, the double-faced prime minister, is not a greedy person.
What Wayne said about the lack of money was that some of the government's low-profit public welfare projects needed investment. Huck couldn't find anyone, so he would ask the Lawrence family for help.
And Wayne, who had too much money to spend, would usually help.
As long as it didn't lose money, it would invest, and it would also consolidate the relationship between the two parties.
"No, he has been busy with another thing recently." Humphrey shook his head and suddenly said without thinking, "It's been almost four years."
Wayne suddenly realized.
In the UK, elections are generally held every five years, but Huck didn't get elected normally. There was a predecessor before him, but that person had some problems, so Huck took advantage of it.
Looking for him for dinner now must be for the election issues later.
Both the House of Commons and the House of Lords have MPs supported by the Lawrence family, which is enough to influence the final outcome.
"Uncle, do you think I should go?"
Wayne was asking him whether he should support Harker.
People change, especially politicians.
They may change their faces faster than they change their underwear.
Fudge is the best example. He used to follow Dumbledore's lead, but now he hates Dumbledore the most.
The struggle between civil servants and prime ministers has lasted for hundreds of years. The two sides are like playing on a seesaw. When one side is strong, the other side will become weak.
The power of the prime minister will also increase over time. The first term and the second term can be said to be very different.
If you spend time pushing an enemy, even if you can solve it afterwards, Wayne will feel upset.
But everything depends on Humphrey's intention. He is the one who has been in contact with Jim Harker for the longest time.
Humphrey began his classic long and difficult performance, "Based on the current situation, considering the dispute between the two factions, analyzing and summarizing, it can also be considered..."
Under Wayne's murderous gaze, Humphrey finally got to the point, "I think Huck is still the best choice."
"Although he graduated from only LES and was a wild person, I have to admit it." Humphrey shook his head helplessly, "Sir Huck has a charm and rare instinct, and can always make the most correct choice in times of crisis."
"The most important thing is that he still has a trace of conscience, not the kind of ungrateful person."
Uh, even Wayne was a little surprised.
Having a trace of conscience... This kind of evaluation can come from Humphrey's mouth, it is already very good.
You know, his standard civil servant uncle often boasts of himself as a moral vacuum.
"Then let's set it at noon tomorrow. I still have to rush to Paris." Wayne thought for a while and said.
His schedule for this holiday is already full.It was impossible to stay in London and wait for Huck.
"No problem." Humphrey agreed immediately. Now Huck needed Wayne's help, so the time was naturally determined by him.
After reaching a certain level of power, it was very easy to influence the results of the election.
Especially now that it is still the era of print media, the influence of newspapers is particularly terrifying.
After killing a certain Jewish family, the Lawrence family has already controlled the right to speak in the British media.
It is a bit difficult to praise Huck, but it is too easy to find dirt on his competitors.
Sometimes elections are not about who is better, but about the contrast between peers.
The next day, Wayne met Huck, who was covered tightly, in a steak restaurant in his family.
The two talked about everything, from magic to daily life, to the recent economic situation, and there was no question related to the election.
Because both of them knew that being able to sit here and eat together meant that the deal had been settled.
In fact, Huck also likes to cooperate with the Lawrence family. They don't crave for political status because their foundation is deep enough.
What's more, the person in power of this generation is a superhuman, which is a unique advantage.
When cooperating with people of similar strength, you should always be on guard against backstabs. When cooperating with people who are far stronger than you, you don't have to worry.
Because there is no point in worrying.
Wayne also likes Huck very much. He is full of his sense of humor.
From time to time, he will inadvertently reveal his clear stupidity.
This is also one of the reasons why Huck is supported by voters. He looks very ordinary, not as high and mighty as other political elites.
The guests and hosts had a great meal. After watching Huck leave, Wayne activated the Apparition and disappeared.
In the magic world, the news that Dumbledore has become a wanted criminal in the Bear Country has finally spread, and related reports have also been published in today's newspapers.
But the most concerning thing is the turmoil in the bear country.
The two people rescued by Dumbledore have come to the Ministry of Magic of other countries for help, and spread the drastic changes in the country.
When they learned that Katerina actually treated the pure-bloods as lambs to be slaughtered, they were all furious.
In essence, the society of the magic world is still controlled by the pure-bloods. They are equivalent to the big capital consortiums in the Muggle world, affecting the magic world in all aspects.
And what Katerina and Riddle did was undoubtedly a rebellion of the people in their eyes.
Drmstrang.
Grindelwald also received the news, and even his intelligence network was wider, and he knew more inside details.
There was a hearty laugh in the office. Vida Rozier, who had recovered to the appearance of about 30 years old, stood there quietly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
It has been a long time since I saw the adults in such a good mood.
Sure enough, only Dumbledore could cause such a huge emotional fluctuation in him.
"Dumbledore, you are really going backwards as you live..." Grindelwald stroked the locket in his hand, his expression slowly restrained, and whispered, "Such a small character can use the so-called power to restrain you. Living like this... Isn't it tiring?"
If it were an ordinary lackey, it would probably have begun to belittle Dumbledore and praise Grindelwald at this time.
But Vida Rosier just listened quietly, without any intention of expressing his opinion.
Someone has done that before, but has paid the price of his life.
Grindelwald closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. This was his habitual action when thinking, completely immersed in his own world.
He was sure that after being exposed, Dumbledore must have run back to his B school and hid.
However, Grindelwald did not have the idea of looking for old friends to reminisce.
Instead, he was thinking about how to deal with Tom.
The other party seemed to be targeting several magic ministries in nearby countries, and small moves continued.
Grindelwald never took the agreement with the International Magical Union Conference to heart. He said he would not actively expand, but he did not say he would not accept the voluntary surrender of certain countries.
If he wanted to go back on his word, he could easily find a hundred excuses.
What really made Grindelwald afraid was the verbal agreement between him and Wayne - with Bolang as the boundary, he could not expand northwards.
He originally thought it was nothing, but now he is a little dissatisfied.
Isn't it just a Horcrux mutant? I can crush him to death with one hand, why don't you let me touch him?
But... Grindelwald is not without a solution. If he does not expand his territory, the saints can spontaneously help Ermao, Baimao and other countries resist invasion.
Although a little sensitive, it should not be considered a violation of the agreement.
Grindelwald, who made up his mind, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Let Roger and Bellby come over to meet them."
"Yes." (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"Wait a minute." Grindelwald stopped Vida who was about to leave, "Send an exchange application to Hogwarts. The two schools should communicate more so that they can make progress together."
Vida will carry out Grindelwald's orders meticulously.
But when Vida went out, Grindelwald suddenly thought of a question. He wanted to communicate, but would Wayne agree?
"Of course I don't agree."
Wayne said with displeasure while holding the little Loli who had grown up another year.
"Hogwarts is the best magic school in the world. Why are you looking at me like that? Well, it couldn't have been wrong before, but now I am the principal, and it will definitely be in the future."
Wayne was arguing with Fleur about where Gabrielle should go to school.
In the blink of an eye, Gabrielle grew from a little girl to a little girl. She will enter the magic school in September next year.
Fleur wanted Gabrielle to go to Beauxbatons, but GabrielleBut she wanted to go to Hogwarts.
The two had been arguing about this for several days. Wayne happened to come here today and was also dragged into the battle.
"..But I am familiar with Beauxbatons, and Madam Maxime is also very good to Gabrielle. She will definitely get the best care."
The votes are now two to one, and Fleur is unwilling to find excuses.
"I can also take good care of Gabrielle." Wayne raised Gabrielle's little hand and shook it. The little loli smiled at her sister in a protest.
I am afraid of you. []
Fleur was muttering in her heart.
She knew how Wayne spoiled Gabrielle. Every time Wayne was here, her sister's words were useless, and Gabrielle was just playing crazy every day.
When Wayne came here today, Gabrielle was happier than her official girlfriend.
If she went to Hogwarts, wouldn't she become a lawless little devil?
Fleur has always wanted to train her sister to be a French lady like herself.
"No, absolutely not." Thinking of Gabrielle's appearance as a little girl in the future, Fleur shook her head desperately.
"Gabrielle must go to Beauxbatons. Didn't you say that Voldemort has been resurrected? It's too dangerous for Gabrielle to go. France is safer."
Let Grindelwald come another day.
Wayne complained silently, but looking at Gabrielle's aggrieved eyes, he still wanted to help her fight for a happy life in the next few years.
"Then why don't you come to Hogwarts too?"
"Me?" Fleur was stunned.
"Yes." Wayne nodded, "Hogwarts is also short of teachers. Aren't you an assistant teacher at Beauxbatons? (Promise money is good) You might as well come to Hogwarts to be a full professor."
"But I didn't hear you say that any professors at Hogwarts resigned. Could it be Defense Against the Dark Arts?"
Fleur looked alert. She knew about the existence of the curse. Could it be that Wayne thought she was too old and was going to replace her with a younger one?
Looking at her weird little eyes, Wayne didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"What are you thinking? The curse of Defense Against the Dark Arts has been lifted, and I have found a suitable professor. I am going to expand the professor lineup."
"After all, it is a bit too much for one professor to teach seven grades."
The number of students at Hogwarts is increasing. After he becomes the headmaster, he has the right to check the names on the admission book.
There are already 200 new students who will be enrolled next year, and there may be more young wizards who will leave their names in the admission book in the second half of the year.
It would be very laborious to let a teacher be responsible for the studies of thousands of students, even if he can manage them.
Besides, it is a waste to let big masters like Professor Flitwick, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Sprout teach the young wizards who have just enrolled.
That's why he plans to find another professor for each course to manage the lower grades.
After hearing his idea, Fleur was really tempted.
Going to Hogwarts will allow him to stay in school for a long timeAccompanying Wayne and restraining Gabriel at the same time is indeed a very tempting idea.
"Then let's discuss it after Dad comes back."
Wayne knew that Furong was inclined to agree, and only Gabriel pouted.
Damn it!
Still can't escape the clutches of her sister? .
