The history of magic is really boring. During the class, the students in the entire classroom were drowsy, and it was not until the end of get out of class bell rang that everyone regained their vitality.
Before dinner, Albert was about to write a reply to others. There is an advantage in keeping correspondence with that group of famous wizards. When discussing and researching a certain field, the experience gains extremely fast, but the price that needs to be paid is to spend a lot of time and energy to write back letters.
After all, everyone is a professional. Except for simple greetings, most of the content in the letter is about academic issues or opinions on a certain field.
To be honest, such a letter is much higher than writing a manuscript for an academic magazine, but the content is a bit unregular.
But no one really cares about this issue. For them, it is enough to be able to explain it clearly.
Albert often mentions some of his own doubts and novel points in the letter, and the other party will be happy to help answer and discuss if they will.
Albert ate alone in the auditorium, Fred and George both went to participate in the selection of Quidditch players, and Lee Jordan went to cheer for them and watched the selection process by the way.
After dinner, Albert went back to Gryffindor's lounge, put his schoolbag back in the bookstore, and then appeared in front of the stone monster at the entrance of the principal's room before seven o'clock in the evening.
"Mead." Albert gave an order to the stone monster.
The stone monster suddenly came alive and jumped aside, revealing the gap hidden behind him.
Albert passed through the gap in the wall and stepped onto the spiral stone staircase. The monster blocked the gap again, and the stone staircase began to rise slowly, sending him to a wooden door with a brass knocker.
"Is this a magic elevator?" Albert couldn't help muttering, took his pocket watch from his pocket, checked the time, and knocked on the wooden door of Dumbledore's office on time.
The next moment, the door of the office opened.
"Good evening, principal." Albert nodded slightly at Dumbledore.
"Come in, Mr. Anderson." Dumbledore smiled.
This is the first time Albert has come to the principal's office. Inside is a round room with pictures of previous Hogwarts principals hanging on the wall, and the portraits are pretending to be asleep.
Albert is not the only visitor in this office, which is actually not unexpected.
Hertok Dagworth arrived early.
"Hertok told me that there were some small misunderstandings between you." Dumbledore said to Albert. "He wants to sit down and talk to you peacefully. Would you mind?"
"Yes, a small misunderstanding." Albert nodded and said, "I also hope this matter can be resolved smoothly."
"No, no need. After all, he is a potion master." Albert's tone was very calm, but Dumbledore couldn't help but raised his eyebrows, apparently hearing Albert's intentions.
Hertok Dagworth is a potion master.
Who knows if he would mix anything into the drink?
For example: Veritaserum.
"Oh, that's really a shame." Dumbledore glanced at Hector, who was silent, not too optimistic about the outcome of the meeting.
The relationship between the two parties is no longer unfriendly as Hertok said.
"I went to the Ministry of Magic two days ago." Hertok finally spoke. "I went to talk to the other person about it, but the short and fat ugly woman just didn't want to admit it or apologize. "
"I just couldn't hear it suddenly." Dumbledore pretended not to hear Hurtock.
"That's a pity." Albert shrugged his shoulders, but the expressionless face couldn't see the regret in the words.
"One hundred, no, five hundred gallons." Hertok offered his price, "I really can't do anything on the Ministry of Magic."
"Why don't you bribe the other person?" Albert asked curiously.
"I'd rather give you this money, and don't want to give it to that nasty ugly woman." Hertok's face showed a disgusting expression, and he obviously didn't like the woman in his mouth: "A thousand gallons, take the gold membership card Give me back."
"So that's it." Albert nodded, "Ten thousand gallons, I will return the card to you."
"Ten thousand gallons, are you crazy? This is naked blackmail." Hertok's face flushed instantly, and he was almost pleased by Albert's words. He felt that he was sincere enough.
"Yes, I am indeed blackmailing you now." Albert admitted directly.
This made Hertok's heart frustrated, and even Dumbledore couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The two had never thought that Albert would admit it so simply.
"Mr. Anderson, how would you be willing to return the gold membership card to Hector?" Dumbledore interjected.
"It's very simple. Dagworth solves the trouble he has caused. It is forbidden to misuse the Director of the Magic Office to write an apology to me in person." Albert stated his terms and opened his hand to Dumbledore helplessly: "I I don't think my request is excessive at all."
"That's it?" Dumbledore frowned. He had noticed that Albert had directly called Hertok by his last name, and obviously had no favor with him.
"It has always been. I only need Dagworth to solve the trouble he has caused for me, and I will return the gold card to him, without Gallon or any thanks." Albert asked rhetorically, " It's fair, isn't it, Principal Dumbledore."
"It's true." Dumbledore admitted that Albert's approach was okay. He couldn't find any fault at all, because the other party's request was completely reasonable. On the contrary, it made people feel that everything was Hurtock deliberately looking for things. .
"Sometimes, problems can be solved without reason." Hertok said angrily.
"I know, so I didn't reason with you. I'm threatening you now." When Albert said the threat, it was as if he was telling people what to eat today.
"Mr. Anderson..." Dumbledore knew that this was the only way to go, unless Hurtock fulfilled the not-so-excessive requirements, otherwise he would not want to get back the gold membership card.
"I know what you mean, Professor Dumbledore. It's a pity that I didn't see the slightest sincerity in Dagworth." Albert's voice was calm. It was because it was calm that Hurtock felt Deeply uneasy, "In my opinion, face is given to each other. Dagworth doesn't give me face. Do you still expect me to give him face?"
Dumbledore was very surprised. To be honest, he had a good impression of Albert, but he never thought that the young boy in front of him would have such a tough side.
"I said, I have already gone to the director of the Office of Prohibition of Abuse of Magic, but she disagrees, I can't do anything about it." Hertok gradually calmed down.
"Then use a special method." Albert said.
"Special way?" Hertok repeated.
"If the director of the Office of Magic is not willing to apologize for his mistakes, just let the new director apologize." Albert said calmly, "you go to the Daily Prophet and publish an apology paper, and take all the mistakes. Pushed to the head of the Director of the Office of Prohibition of Abuse of Magic. Anyway, this incident itself is the fault of the Ministry of Magic, and it is also the fault of the Director of Prohibition of Abuse of the Office of Magic. If you don't know how to use this, I can give You recommend a reporter, she is very good at this kind of thing, as long as you are willing to pay a little bit of Gallon as a contribution fee."
Not only Hurtock's eyes widened, but Dumbledore looked at Albert in surprise.
"Don't look at me that way, I'm just telling the truth." Albert shrugged. "Of course, I don't want the staff of the Ministry of Magic to show up near my house afterwards. To be honest, I never doubted the behavior of the Ministry of Magic."
Hertok suddenly felt cold all over.
The boy in front of him was just telling the truth, but the fact that he said calmly made Hertok feel very bad.
He even felt that if he used a tough method, maybe the other party had already thought of how to deal with him.
As he said, this is the truth.
Terrible fact.
"I know what to do." Hertok was silent for a long time and nodded and said, "Although I can't understand why you want that **** letter of apology, I think you will soon receive a prohibition against the abuse of magic from the Ministry of Magic. A letter of apology from the head of the office."
"You want to know why I want it?" Albert squinted at Hector, then turned his head to Dumbledore.
The latter seems very interested.
Hertok also nodded.
"It's not my fault, why should I endure such a result? Why should I pay for the Ministry's error?" Albert asked rhetorically.
Hertok opened his mouth and said nothing.
"If you make a mistake, just apologize obediently. This is the cheapest and most peaceful solution." Albert raised his mouth contemptuously. "My family has told me since I was a child that when others are unwilling to use peace You don't have to be polite to solve the problem in a way, just go up and punch the other party until he is willing to solve the problem peacefully."
Whether it was Dumbledore or Hurtock, the expression on his face froze.
Of course, they don't think there is a problem with Albert's tutor, after all, he is still willing to solve the problem peacefully first.
It's just that this kind of thing happened to Hertok, and it really made him extremely headache. He found that he was the hapless man whose face was muddled by his fists.
"Why don't you want Galleons? A thousand gallons is a lot of money for anyone?" After Hertok relaxed, he went away in no hurry, and sat down with Albert. chat.
Just like Albert said, you give me face, and I will give you face.
"Knowledge is the greatest wealth of mankind." Albert said without hesitation.
Hertok froze for a moment, but listened to the other party to continue to say, "This means that knowledge is equal to wealth, as long as there is enough knowledge and find the right way, you can quickly turn it into wealth."
Hertok was speechless. Although he felt that this statement was far-fetched, he knew he was persuaded by the other party.
Albert is an expert in Mowen, which means that what he said is actually self-confidence in himself.
"I now understand why Browder is optimistic about you~www.mtlnovel.com~ His vision of seeing people is indeed beyond my reach." Hertok sighed with emotion and reached out to Albert: "This I will solve the matter soon. If you are interested in potions or have questions, you can write to me."
"If there is one, I will write to you, Mr. Dagworth." Albert headed.
"If you can't get used to the Ministry of Magic, you can solve it yourself. I believe that with your talent, you can achieve the position of Minister of Magic within thirty years at the latest." Before leaving, Hertok suddenly turned around and said: " Broad's circle is wider than you think."
"I'm not interested in those things."
"That's a shame!" Hertok disappeared into the fireplace.
"It seems that this matter has been solved perfectly." Dumbledore looked at Albert with a smile, "I think Filius will be disappointed, you didn't go to Ravenclaw."
"Except for Slytherin College, the rest of the colleges are suitable for me." Albert finished speaking and turned and left.
