章節 117: Chapter 117
Hogwarts: Start Fusion Phoenix Bloodline Chapter 117
It was December, and Peter was a prominent figure in school during this time, after all, the two wizards he had captured had come to fruition.
Not long ago, the Daily Prophet published that the Dark Wizard Grimm was officially held a Dementor Kiss, and now it is just a soulless empty shell!
As soon as the news that the same senior official of the Ministry of Magic, Coban Yaxley, was a member of the Death Eaters, it caused an uproar in the magical world. Even if Yaxley had been arrested and thrown into Azkaban, it had not been able to recover the Ministry's reputation loss.
Under pressure from all sides, The Minister of Women, Millison Barnold, known for her tough style, will officially step down at the end of December and no longer serve as Minister for Magic.
A dozen other contenders competed for the position of Minister of Magic, including the more famous Barty Crouch and Cornelius Fudge, who did not have much of an advantage.
When Peter read the news in the newspaper, he was quite sorry for Millison Barnold.
The minister of the wizarding world does not want to have a specific term like the Muggle world, and generally can serve for a long time if there is no mistake!
Millisson Barnold has not been Minister for Magic for ten years, and he is not too old, but he can only step down under pressure from all sides.
"Peter, which of these people do you think will succeed in running for ministerial office?" Allen saw Peter casually ask after reading the campaign information in the Daily Prophet, and then swore, "I want to say that it must be Batty Crouch who has the greatest advantage, he is very tough, and there are many people who like his style of doing things!" "
"I don't think it can be him, if he could have run successfully, he would have succeeded!" Flora said disapprovingly, "He was originally the director of the Law Enforcement Department, but since he sent his son to Azkaban, the people no longer trust him, and he has been transferred to the International Department of Magical Cooperation, so his chances of success are very small." "
"Maybe it's Cornelius Fudge!" Peter interjected, in a tone that seemed to be a joke. But he actually knew that if nothing else, the next Minister for Magic would be this Fudge.
"It is impossible, Fudge's prestige is not as great as others, nor does he have any political achievements, and he is too mediocre!" Alan shook his head and said, feeling that Peter was guessing.
"The current magical world, or what is needed is his mediocrity!" Peter said meaningfully.
Then he saw that there was a betting section in the Daily Prophet, on which the corresponding odds were made for each candidate, and Fudge's odds reached 5, which can be said to be the highest! It's hard to imagine how he managed to run for success.
"Is this wonderful event real? Will it be selected later and will not give money? Peter asked curiously.
"This is an event organized by the Daily Prophet in cooperation with the Ministry of Magic, and it has been held before, so the credibility is still high." Ellen explained, then looked at him in amazement, "What, do you want to bet?" "
"It's funny to watch, I want to invest some money to try, maybe I'll win it!" Peter said casually that he was now lying in Gringotts with a hundred thousand gold gallons, but there was no shortage of money, but he didn't mind making a little bit of this kind of money sent to the door.
"Gambling is not a good habit, Peter!" Flora Shaker frowned and reminded him.
"I just invested a few hundred gallons to try, and if I lose, it will only be a few days less candy money, don't worry!" Peter said with a smile.
This damn rich man! The two swallowed enviously, they can have 1 gallon a month of pocket money, which is already very good among all the students.
In the wizarding world 1 golden gallon = 17 silver sike, 1 siko = 29 nats, i.e. 1 gallon = 493 nats!
When Peter first packed all the snacks on the train when he entered school, he only spent about a golden gallon!
In the three broom bars in Hogsmeade Village, the price of butter beer is 2 silver sikes a cup.
Daily Prophet needs 5 nats,
And the most important weapon wand for wizards is priced around 7 gallons! You can see the price level of the wizarding world.
So Peter has 100,000 gold gallons in Gringotts, which can be said to be a local tycoon!
You must know that the current time is 1989, at this time in the distant eastern countries, the per capita wage level is only 161 yuan, which translates to less than 15 pounds! That's 3 gallons!
Many pure-blood families don't have as much money as Peter! Of course, the background of more than a dozen generations of pure-blood families is incomparable to that of peter at present! In particular, magic books and magic props that cannot be measured by money are things that ordinary people cannot access.
Under the envious eyes of the two men, Peter took a pile of gold gallons from the animal skin pocket, then counted out 200 gold gallons and put them in another small bag.
Write down his name and address on a blank piece of parchment and bet on Fudge's name, then borrow Alan's owl and send the money bag containing the golden gallon and the quiz envelope to the Daily Prophet.
"Peter, how did you put all your weight on Fudge alone?" He was the one with the highest odds, and even the Daily Prophet thought his chances of winning were slim! You can't spend it like that if you have money! Alan was surprised to see that Peter had put all 200 gallons on Fudge, and said with a look of pity. Apparently he thought Peter's money was adrift!
"It's okay, maybe I can still win, then it will be 1,000 gold gallons!" I had a dream last night that Fudge became minister! Maybe it's a prophecy dream! Peter laughed and said jokingly.
"You don't have a prophetic bloodline, and you dream of prophecy!" You tease me! Alan looked in disbelief.
"Dude, what were you doing?" But we heard the sound of The Golden Gallon colliding at the Gryffindor table! The twins ran straight to Peter and sat down, put them on his shoulders and asked with a grin.
"Peter said he dreamed last night that Fudge became minister, so he spent 200 gallons betting to guess he would win!" Allen explained that Toppel's relationship, he was already familiar with the Weasley brothers, so he was not as distant as before.
"Merlin! Peter, did you really invest so much money? The twins said with a look of disbelief, the money is already astronomical for them!
Since listening to Peter's advice, going to Hogsmeade through the secret passage to buy snacks and prank props, etc., and bringing them back to school to sell to classmates, the Weasley brothers have made more than twenty gallons!
This has made them very happy, they have never made so much money and decided to maintain this business well. But now in front of these two hundred gallons, it seems a little insufficient!
"Yeah, just try it, it doesn't matter if you make money or not!" Peter said with a smile.
"You also think Peter is fooling around, right, he can't spend money like this!" Alan told the twins that as Peter's roommate and friend, he felt he had to advise Peter in case he lost all his money one day!
Leaving aside the twins' reactions, Alan White was somewhat unresponsive. The Weasley brothers looked at each other, silently made eye contact, and then said directly, "Then let's play too!" Just follow Peter and bet Fudge to win! "
What the? Alan was dumbfounded. How come these two people are crazy? Bet with Peter!
Peter was also stunned, and then shook his head in disapproval and said, "Don't play, I have this spare money, but you are hard-earned money, you can't mess around!" "
