566 Lupin's Plan
Genius remembers this site address in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! "Remus, why did you tell Malfoy the whereabouts of that woman? Have you forgotten the bastard back then? ?"
In Black’s old house, Sirius yelled at Lupin angrily, waving his arms to vent his dissatisfaction.
Lupin certainly did not forget that when he was enrolled in Hogwarts with Sirius and Harry’s father James, Lucius, who was several years older than them, was already a sixth-grade senior. The lad.Naturally, that guy was studying at Slytherin College, and he was annoying when he was a student.
At that time, Snape was on the list of Lucius, and in the first two years, he was backed by a senior who was the prefect to provoke them, and that caused them, the Gryffindor trio, to grow old. It was playing Snape.Not to mention the latter thing, at least in the first and second grades, Snape was pretty good at Hogwarts.
As for Lucius’s run on Gryffindor Academy, Lupin and Sirius clearly remember it.
"Sirius, you sit down first-sit down!"
Lupin knew that Sirius was a violent temper, and because he had squatted in Azkaban for so many years, his temper had grown stronger.So when he asked loudly, Lupin seemed indifferent.
"Narcissa is your cousin after all, isn't it?" After forcibly pushing Sirius onto the back chair, he chuckled, "Although you don't like her--yes, I don't like her either. It looks like everyone is watching a fly, and he always smiles at Malfoy. But what she says is your cousin. This relationship is destined in your life, and you can't break it."
"Who said it can't be broken?" Sirius frowned. "Look at the wall of genealogy, can you find my face? Hey! It was burned by my good mother long ago—"
"It's okay, what you said makes the most sense, okay?" Lupin waved his hand helplessly, not mentioning how Sirius' expression was tangled when he heard the news of Narcissa, just casually said. "Actually, I didn't do it entirely because of you, so don't take it for granted!"
"Then who else can you do it for?" Sirius said irritably, "Apart from me, is there anyone here who is related to that woman?"
"No one will do it." Lu Ping spread his arms and said lightly, "I just think that this is good for us in the Order of the Phoenix, understand?"
After hearing this, Sirius suddenly looked at Lupin in confusion.
He knew that Lupin was never the kind of aimless person, and since Lupin did this, there must be a reason.If it wasn't for him Sirius Black, what was it for?
"What do you mean?"
When Lupin pretended to be plain, Sirius actually became a little more serious.This pair of lifelong partners knows each other's personalities. If Lupin deliberately acted very relaxed and natural, then what he was going to say next would certainly not be easy.
Sure enough, Lupin's expression suddenly changed after shrugging.
"This time Voldemort failed again, and he died at Hogwarts on the spot. It was a happy ending." He said, "But for those pure-blood families, this may not be a good direction—I think On this point, you should know nothing more."
"Hmph, of course," Sirius sneered contemptuously. "Those pretentious guys always feel that they are higher than half-blood and Muggle-born wizards, and they are not thinking about restoring the past for a moment.' Family glory'."
While talking, he put quotation marks on the word "family glory" to show his disdain.Lupin agreed with him, and then nodded.
"So, as pure-bloods, they will not give up their secret activities because of Voldemort's disappearance." He continued to explain.
"Is it possible?" Sirius frowned. "I hate those guys, but we must at least admit that the family who can hold back when Voldemort rises is at least some brains. When Hogwarts is gaining momentum, they will choose this kind of timing to shoot?"
"Why is it impossible?" Lu Ping asked back, and then shook his head. "As you said, Hogwarts is gaining momentum now, but because of this, they have to take advantage of it to stand still. Think of a way to lay the foundation first when you are firm. Those guys are smart! They know that once McLean and Ms. McGonagall have completely stabilized Hogwarts' reputation, the pureblood family probably won't have any future."
Lupin’s words made sense, at least Sirius had already tasted the taste.
Lupin and Sirius knew about Maca's trip to Boothbarton.And they also understand that the reason why Maca participated in Nicole Lemay’s legacy was to give Hogwarts a chance to stabilize the mountain.If he really took that world-level alchemy contest to Hogwarts to hold, then Hogwarts' feet can be solid in the future.
At that time, what Hogwarts needs to do next is of course to recruit students vigorously.
It is conceivable that whether they are of Muggle origin or mixed blood, they will all be the objects of Hogwarts.The so-called quantitative change causes qualitative change. As the generations of students overlap, Hogwarts will definitely cultivate more outstanding wizards, making the school more and more profound.
Therefore, those pure-blood families will naturally be affected the most.
"Hmph, it seems they are scared." Sirius grinned.
"It's not enough to be afraid now," Lupin said. "The foundations of those families are not thin. Apart from their false names, don't forget that they also control many industries in the magical world. Those are the sources of their confidence. "
Whether it is the Muggle world or the magical world, the economy is often the foundation of the major forces.Compared with those family businesses, Hogwarts is just a school no matter how dazzling it is, and it's a non-profit one.
Of course, if it weren't for a school that didn't charge any tuition, or Maca might not have been able to get in back then!
You know, Hogwarts is regarded as the top first-class magic school in the world of magic, there is only one in the UK, and the entire European magic school can be counted with two hands.Compared to Oxford and Cambridge's status in the Muggle world, Hogwarts is clearly better in the magic world. If it is really costly, it is not a question of how expensive it is.
In fact, a long time ago, both Boothbatten and Durmstrang established tuition systems.It was only because of Hogwarts' non-profit regulations that the other two magic schools in Europe were forced to abolish the tuition system.No way, if you continue to maintain the fees, the students will be robbed of Hogwarts!
But in this way, the school will inevitably be subject to others financially.Although it is nominally free sponsorship, the school board, which was originally held in the hands of the descendants of the four founders, has gradually flowed into the hands of the major "wealthy people" over the years.
Ironically, most of those people belonged to a family of pure blood wizards.
Therefore, although the school board, which is mainly composed of families of pure-blood wizards, cannot directly interfere with the development of the school and the handling of school affairs, it still has some influence.Just like the appointment and dismissal of the principal, as long as three-quarters of the members agree, the position of the incumbent principal can be revoked.
Over the years, it has been complicated, and it cannot be said clearly in a short while.
The Black family, where Sirius is located, was once one of the twelve board members of Hogwarts, but the decline of its family allowed this position to be occupied by other new donors.And Dumbledore has been in power for many years, and also attracted several new sponsor members with his personal charm, which is not mentioned for the time being.
In short, if Hogwarts wants to be truly independent in the future, it will inevitably have friction with the pure-blood wizard families that support the operation of the school. This is obviously a very contradictory trend.But once the economic problem was solved by Hogwarts, this contradiction no longer existed.
This is exactly what those pure-blood families worry about.
Lupin told Sirius all his thoughts all these days.He believed that with Sirius's mind, he could definitely understand the subtleties.Although Sirius doesn't like to use his brains, it is not because he is too stupid, but simply because he prefers to solve problems by strength.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Sirius just thought about it for a moment, then nodded.Although he did not speak, he already had a partial understanding of Lupin's previous behavior.
The reason why Lupin informed Lucius Malfoy of Narcissa's news was to allow Hogwarts to have one less member of the school board who would do little tricks in the near future.
Making friends and soliciting, Dumbledore did in most cases when he was still alive.
"The Malfoy family is in a bad situation now, but after all, their family still has enough background and won't fall down so easily." Lupin finally concluded, "Give them some help when they are most difficult. This is great for Hogwar. Here, it’s good for us in the Order of the Phoenix, isn’t it?"
When Lupin said these words, Sirius seemed a little disapproving.
"Do you really think that Malfoy will remember this good?"
But Lupin smiled and said meaningfully: "It's just that, of course he won't remember it... Well, maybe he will forget it'accidentally'. But he has a bad memory, we just Can't you help him improve his memory?"
