Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

"Ifamoni? I admit that it is a great magic education institution as famous as Hogwarts. And, since the US Magic Congress announced the abolition of the Rapaport Law thirty years ago, their development The speed is indeed surprising. In my opinion, they are indeed likely to challenge Hogwarts' traditional status. "

Dumbledore nodded thoughtfully, and immediately corresponded to the young school on the other side of the ocean that Elena said.

If we must choose one of the many schools of magic in the world that has the campus model most similar to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, then it must be the Yfarmony School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Massachusetts.

Compared to Hogwarts, which was founded in 993 AD, the Ifamoni School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which was not established until the middle of the seventeenth century, is undoubtedly a fairly young latecomer. A stone hut built by Aesor Thur and her hen husband James Stewart.

As the school continued to grow, the number of students increased, and more teachers were recruited-the humble granite hut quickly turned into a huge castle, and the fame of the Ilfamoni School of Witchcraft and Wizardry soon became a tribe of Native American tribes. Spread widely with the British colonists, wizards and wizards across the Americas sent their children to Ilfermoni, and iffamoni, like Hogwarts, became a boarding school.

In fact, because the founder Aesor Thur came from Scotland, this school has consciously used the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that she is most familiar with as the initial template reference, so people can easily Many similarities were found in the two schools.

For example, in terms of lineage tracing, Aesop ’s aunt, Gomré Gunter, is a direct descendant of Salazar Slytherin—even the infamous Voldemort had to shout respectfully the ancestor ’s That kind

For another example, after the first-year freshmen of the Yfamuni School of Magic first came to the school, they also joined four different colleges (longhorn water snake, cat leopard, thunderbird, goblin) after the branch ceremony;

In addition, the basic courses, the boarding study system for the seventh grade, or the O.W.L and N.E.W.T that each student needs to participate are the same.

The only difference is that most little wizards in North America will only be allowed to obtain their first wand after entering the school, instead of going to the wand shop on their own like Hogwarts students.

Although the strength of teachers and the depth of magical knowledge, Yfarmoni is certainly slightly inferior to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry with a history of thousands of years of magic, but the development of these hundreds of years has been enough to allow it to cultivate a large number of Slightly the next level of the magician backbone wizard.

As a new school of magic, ifamoni is inherently easier to recruit Muggle-born wizards than Hogwarts, there is almost no old and stubborn pure blood similar to Europe in North America The wizard family, this has undoubtedly become one of the biggest advantages of Yfarmoni's rapid rise.

"But, in any case, the Yfarmoni School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is always too far from Europe. Moreover, they are too young. As a school that imitates Hogwarts' teaching model, I don't think it will be a threat. "

Dumbledore shook his head disapprovingly, and apparently didn't think Elfimone would have any impact on Hogwarts' future in Elena's mouth.

"On the contrary, it is because of homology and similarity that it will become Hogwarts' biggest competitor."

Elena looked at Dumbledore unabashedly, retaliating diametrically:

"Only when there is a clear difference between the two is it possible to coexist peacefully. The source of the magic world is very limited. With the advancement of technology and magic, the geographical space barriers that originally restricted people's gathering and movement are rapidly disappearing. The wizards of the U.S. Magic Congress extended their tentacles to the European Ghostling Goblin, which is a particularly obvious attack signal. "

The more ancient, the more refined, comprehensive, and higher barriers to entry.

Although in this era, the vast majority of people still inherited a long-standing brand, which would have an overwhelming advantage for similar imitation brands, but Elena from the brutal era of the information explosion of later generations is very clear and true Instead, the newcomers with low development costs and extremely high trial and error advantages can always easily beat those old brands in some new areas.

Among them, the most interesting example is undoubtedly the three MOBA games that have formed a peculiar despise chain-"DOTA", "League of Legends", "Glory of the King". Undoubtedly, the three games are competitive and well-structured The degree and difficulty of getting started form an extremely smooth ladder level, and then the opposite of this ladder level is their popularity of social communication.

Among them, a view that everyone agrees on is that the event that really promotes the "League of Legends" to quickly defeat "DOTA" to seize most of the MOBA game market is that it chooses an exceptionally strong background support. The power of capital was introduced into a contest of similar qualities, and the situation was reversed.

There is no doubt that although the situation today is slightly different.

But if once the American Magic Congress is allowed to help the North American goblin annex the European Gullet Pavilion, and at the same time eat a whole fat Soviet bear, the so-called "North American Wizard Bank Joint Reserve System", Will become the most terrible giant in the magic world-even more terrible than the Fed in the non-magic world, no one can balance the monster.

At that time, if Hogwarts was still as it is now, counting on the Ministry of Magic grants and school board funding to maintain the school's operations, being controlled by people is just a simple small order to accomplish.

Therefore, since she realized that the American magic world was ending, Elena, who had just wanted to help Hogwarts in the wave of the disintegration of the Soviet Union, had begun to change her purpose. She did not want to wait for decades to wait. , Turnaround hovered in the painful struggle to save the intangible cultural heritage of the magic world "Hogwarts" from dying out of school.

After thinking for a while, Elena decided to use some simpler figures to make Dumbledore understand the seriousness of the matter.

"If I remember correctly, over the years, even if you stand out from the crowd and expand the enrollment ratio of small wizards from non-magic families, the enrollment of Hogwarts still inevitably shows a decreasing trend year after year. The total number of first-year students this year is only 73. Compared with the seventh-grade students with the largest number, the number of students enrolled has dropped by nearly 30%. "

"There is indeed such a situation, but this should only be a temporary situation. The number of enrollment at Hogwarts is not fixed every year." Dumbledore nodded slightly, glancing with interest in the serious Irene. Na, motioned the girl to continue.

He was very curious. What kind of strange opinions can a little guy who has just been enrolled in school for a week develop, after all, compared to the completely unfamiliar financial field, Dumbledore has been immersed in teaching for most of his life. The field is still quite conceited.

"In my opinion, you are too optimistic."

Elena shook her finger, looked around the hut, walked to the window and pointed to the brightly lit city outside.

"We take Salzburg as an example. More than 60% of the permanent residents living in this city today are middle-aged and elderly people. In fact, since the end of the World War in 1945, the population of the entire European population Has been in a state of aging and declining birth. If the probability of the birth of a wizard in Muggle does not change substantially, then over time, Hogwarts will be able to recruit fewer and fewer wizards . "

Compared to most skills and knowledge, magic is more like a natural talent.

According to the current definition of the magic world, it mainly divides a person through two directions: magic perception ability and magic release ability:

With magic awareness and magic release ability, this is undoubtedly recognized as a wizard.

Correspondingly, people who have neither the ability to sense magic nor the ability to release magic are called Muggles.

Those in the middle who can only perceive the existence of magic but cannot release magic, such as Argus Filch and Mrs. Feig, who can see dementors, are so-called dumb cannons.

For the birth of magic talent, the magic world lacking the support of systematic genetic medicine research has not yet been able to explore and understand.

Therefore, although there are indeed small wizards born in Muggles, this does not mean that the size of the Muggle population will directly determine the number of wizards. At least from the current perspective, most wizards still come from families where at least one of the parents is a wizard.

This is why Britain is always the most densely populated place.

Because the genetics of magic are at an advantage and are actively active, as long as one of the parents is a wizard, usually, its descendants must be wizards or dumb cannons-based on this, pure-blooded wizards can form deep-rooted families Mode, generation after generation to continue its influence in the magic world.

"Professor Dumbledore, out of curiosity, I once asked everyone of the same grade. Except for the Weasley family, most of the other students from the wizarding family were only children. The magical world has never had a prosperous economic environment. Let most families choose to raise only one child-we all know that even if Hogwarts bears a lot of school and miscellaneous expenses, learning magic is never a cheap thing. Hey! Leave me some! "

After a brief pause, Elena glared fiercely at Grindelwald, who was about to finish the food on the table. With some dissatisfaction, she knocked on the table, looked back at Dumbledore, and continued:

"And if you want to fundamentally improve the economic situation of the magic world, then regaining the right to issue currency and the economic redistribution rights of the entire society is an essential basic condition. That is why Americans will not hesitate to walk On the verge of breaking the international wizarding decree, it is also one of the reasons for helping the goblins goblin independence. "

Hearing Elena ’s worries, Dumbledore raised an eyebrow, unmovingly insisting on his previous point of view, and said softly, “But on this point, as long as I can guarantee that the British magic world will not be affected. Well, at most, we can ask the US Magic Congress for a certain amount of profit, which can also achieve the purpose you said to a certain extent. You still have n’t shown that iffamoni and Hogwarts in this incident The connection in China, and the reason why we must join the battle in Gu Ling Pavilion. "

The population, the wizard, the United States, the goblins, the disintegration of the Soviet Union ...

At this moment, a flash of light suddenly flashed through Elena's mind, and the vague idea she had before was suddenly connected in series, forming a powerful and huge idea.

"Sorcerer group! Once there is a large-scale social unrest, there will inevitably be a phenomenon of the migration of the wizarding group."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Dumbledore frowned, his expression somewhat confused.

This little girl always has some new vocabulary from time to time, which makes an elderly person who is already 110 years old always have a bad feeling that he is being quickly abandoned by the times.

"Yes, the number of wizard families will directly determine the number of small wizards born in the future."

Elena raised her finger and said seriously.

"This is also the second question I want to say. Only a relatively affluent and stable living environment will allow people to have the desire and motivation to produce offspring. In order to avoid the goblins and wizards from the Americas from bringing the magic world and non- The magic world is a mess, and we have to actively intervene in this battle. "

The girl raised her head and looked at Dumbledore, who was thinking all over her face. After she paused for a second or two to organize the language, the following words became smoother.

"The daily income and expenditure of most wizarding families are extremely dependent on a functioning Ministry of Magic for co-ordination and payment of salaries and benefits. In today's magic world, there is an exceptionally special Union-type Magic Department-by dozens of The Ministry of Magic of the Soviet Union is composed of the Ministry of Magic. If the magic world in which these people live temporarily collapsed ... "

"I see, this is a huge plan."

Just then, Grindelwald, who was sitting on the side, patted his palm lightly and couldn't help but followed Elena's words, a complex expression appeared on her face, and a eager expression of interest.

"At this time, who can first reach out to them and provide basic accommodation and job security, who can get the absolute right to speak in the magic world for decades to come. In this way, you little guy, think It ’s not the Gu Ling Pavilion, it ’s not Jin Jialong. What you want is the entire magic world in the future. "

"Soviet sorcerer ..."

Dumbledore rubbed his wand gently with both hands, and there was a flash of surprise in his eyes, something he hadn't considered before.

"While using the so-called ruble to make an essay, would you gather the sorcerer wanderers from the Soviet Union? However, Hogwarts and the British Ministry of Magic are not selfless philanthropists. Huge gold gallon expenditures. We are even less likely to recruit them by recruiting troops or employees. "

Undoubtedly, slightly behind Grindelwald, Dumbledore also realized Elena's idea.

However, in Albus Dumbledore ’s view, Elena ’s ideas were significantly more dangerous and uncontrollable than the benefits she could bring – the girl apparently wanted to use the split in the Lingering Pavilion to fight against opportunities , Directly and partially dismantle the Guling Pavilion ’s ability to control the economy of certain countries, and draw some wizards who originally belonged to other European countries to the Hogwarts camp.

But one of the most important issues is that although Hogwarts and the British Ministry of Magic seem slightly more justice than the US Magic Congress, they still have no valid reason and capital expenditure to consolidate and attract this for a long time. Approval of foreign wizards.

To be precise, if subjective factors are eliminated, some Americans who seem to be more wealthy now seem to be more likely to **** the elite wizard talents from this land.

"No, one thing you may have misunderstood. If we now target our people, then it is no longer just a simple game of money. When necessary, wealth can be thrown out as bait to attract their attention. The wealth accumulated in the castle is enough for all forces involved in the game of money to suffer huge losses at the crucial moment-as long as our purpose is not to make money, but to pull everyone to hell. "

Elena's mouth curled up, revealing a terrible smile.

In economics, there is one of the most classic theories, called the last survivor principle. There are two ways to win, one is to defeat the opponent, and the other is to take everyone to die together, and then be the one who lives to the end.

Undoubtedly, in order to reap the huge wealth of non-magic and magical circles in the entire Soviet Union, whether it is the goblin elves on both sides or the wizards of the US Magic Congress, the sight at this time must be focused on the struggle for wealth.

If you go to the end to participate in the competition in the normal way, the final result is actually to sacrifice a poor bear, and then each bears different weights of bear meat to go home to spend the winter.

However, if there is a spoiler holding everyone ’s goal, and passing over the debts of more than 28 trillion after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, all of them are passed on to all participants ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ is another very Interesting story.

As for this, the benefits that Elena can get

Without continuing to elaborate on the thoughts in her mind, Elena glanced at the food that filled the dining table, her eyes gradually became brighter, and there was only one thing that could really drive humanity.

"Professor Dumbledore, you may not have known the facts yet. The living conditions of those living in the Soviet Union now. Jin Jialong can't relieve hunger, and Jin Jialong can't bring warmth and living supplies."

"However, if we add a little bit of time to magic, I think we can do this. After all, the experience of the castle in Newmongad in the past few days made me realize that there is a problem, the biggest advantage of the magic world, It occupies quite abundant land resources and natural resources of vegetation.
