Hogwarts Blood Wizard

Chapter 529: We have to use brain patching to defeat the brain patching! (2 in 1)

High risk often means high returns, and Rozier knows this well.

What's more, Ivan's strength, potential and wisdom are all in his eyes. This is a business that makes a profit without losing money. It is impossible to repeat the same mistakes!

"With these things, let's go back..."

Ivan didn't know the old Rozier's thoughts. After feeling distressed for the disappeared Jin Jialong, he ordered the wizards who came with him to empty out the money and belongings here and prepare to return to the Bojinbok shop.

Before leaving, Ivan deliberately left a few people here for them to stay here temporarily, and by the way repair the damaged walls of tables and chairs.

This underground secret room is very large, with complete supporting facilities, and very secretive. It is very suitable as a backup base!

By the time Ivan returned to the Bogimbok shop with the wizards who had returned with loads of loads, the sky was already dark.

Ivan gave a speech outside the store in high spirits, commending those who fought bravely in the battle.

Every wizard who participated in the battle was very happy, not only because they had just won a big victory, and no one died.

More importantly, Ivan generously gave them a bonus to celebrate this victory, and the wizards who were injured in the battle received additional subsidies.

No matter how much Ivan feels distressed about the cost, there will be no ambiguity about this. They risked death to win this victory and deserve the corresponding reward!

After finishing his speech at Ivan and disbanding the crowd gathered here, Fren walked up quickly and handed over a list and a thick book.

"Your Excellency Hals, this is the list of the prisoners in this battle, and we found a ledger from the financial room!" Fren said.

Ivan nodded, took the two things, and glanced at the list before reading the ledger.

While recording the names and general information of the captured persons, it also recorded the enemies killed in the battle.

Excluding a few pure-blood wizards, there were a total of 29 guards in the wizard market and underground secret rooms. Eleven of them died. The others were arrested or simply surrendered...

"Why have so many people been arrested?" Seeing this, Ivan turned his head to look at Fren, and asked strangely.

Although he hopes to reduce the killings, he also understands that death in such a fierce battle is inevitable, and it shouldn't happen that most of the enemy's personnel are captured.

"Except for the law enforcement officers, the other guards were temporarily recruited by the Wizard Market with money and have no loyalty to the Knot family.

When we went in, some guards didn't even think we could resist, so they dropped their wands and surrendered..." Fren explained.

The corners of Ivan's mouth twitched, and he said that he led a group of untrained wizards into the wizarding market so easily. No one died. It turned out that the enemy was even more useless...

"Your Excellency Hals, what do these prisoners do? They seem to want to take refuge in us..." Fren asked hesitantly.

Ivan hesitated, preparing to use the Forgetting Curse to wash away the memories of these people for a while, and then let them go.

After all, he doesn't need so many manpower, and it's hard to get rid of them all, let alone stay in jail and eat plain rice!

However, Ivan quickly rejected this idea. Most of the captured prisoners were dark wizards from Knockout Alley. When the Knot family recruited people, they would not necessarily be screened like Esiah.

This means that among those people, there may be extremely vicious thugs, and if they are let out like this, they will disrupt the public order of Knockturn Alley, and they will need to be managed by themselves at that time.

"Be detained first, and send someone to see if they don't let people run away. I will cross-examine them one by one. I need to know all their details and use Veritaserum if necessary!" Ivan said to Fren.

He decided to check. Those thugs didn't need to be alive anymore. Others would consider whether to let them go according to the situation.

"By the way, those pure-blood wizards remember to find another place to imprison them, especially that Knott needs to be locked up alone, understand?" Ivan suddenly remembered the old Rozier's proposal and added.

"Yes, Sir Hals!" Furen bowed slightly.

"Close those prisoners, you call Dougt again, I have something to ask him!" Ivan waved his hand to indicate that Fren can leave.

Fren nodded and nodded, after asking some precautions, he turned and left as instructed.

Ivan put down the list, walked into the inner room of the Bogimbok shop, sat by the stove, checked the ledger of the wizard market, and after a cursory glance at it several times, he couldn't help but take a breath. .

"A year of profit of seven hundred thousand gallons?" Ivan looked at the record on the ledger and wondered if there was an extra zero on it.

Because no matter how you look at it, the wizarding market doesn't look like it can make so much money.

Knockdown Alley is too poor to find so much oil!

However, after Ivan took a closer look, he discovered that the real profit of the wizarding market is smuggling and buying and selling all kinds of contraband!

The scope of business is the entire European magic world!

"No wonder you can make so much...it turned out to be doing these businesses!" Ivan muttered to himself.

He also found that this ledger was incomplete, and a lot of money was not directly written out of the source. It is likely that some of the more serious black income was not recorded.

Even so, the things recorded in the ledger alone would be enough for Foley, Knott and others to stay in Azkaban for a lifetime.

Of course, under normal circumstances, even if the wizard market is checked by the Auror of the Ministry of Magic, it doesn't matter. These pure-blood families still have a layer of white gloves that can be exonerated.

They did not directly manage the wizarding market before, but used an agent to remotely control it behind the scenes. The ledger did not record anything that was unfavorable to them. In a sense, it was “clean”!

Coupled with their influence and network in the magic world, it is impossible to squat in Azkaban. It is estimated that the agent will be pushed out to stand trial, and another sum of money will be exonerated.

Ivan shook his head and sighed. It seems that no matter whether it is the Muggle world or the wizarding world, some things are always so similar.

Those pure-blooded wizards who are superficial gentlemen may be doing some shameful deeds secretly, but you can't help them because they are the best at exploiting the loopholes of the law...

"No, my 500,000 gallons became 50,000!" Ivan suddenly realized that the old Rozier **** might have lied to himself. The wizard market is so profitable, even if it only operates for half a year this year. , More than fifty thousand gallons!

But when he turned to the last few pages of the account angrily, he was dumbfounded. The amount shown on the account was really only so much.

In the first half of this year, due to the impact of this small war, they did not make a few big business at all, and the income of the wizard market naturally dropped sharply.

Even the evil agent was killed by Esiah. If it weren't for this, these pure-blood wizard families wouldn't have to end up personally.

Fortunately, the general plate of the wizarding market is still there. As long as it is reorganized and continues to operate, it will not be long before the previous income can be restored.

With half a million gallons a year, from today onwards he is considered a rich man in the magical world...

Ivan was a little bit happy thinking about it!

However, realizing that this is all gray income, Ivan hesitated a bit. He considered himself a good law-abiding wizard. Although sometimes forced to cross the line "a little" because of helplessness, this did not prevent him from being a good person!

Ivan flipped through the ledger, and finally merged. He felt that it was necessary to carry out certain rectifications on the business of the wizard market, and stopped doing some dirty work that was too bad!

As an alternative, he can use the wizard market to sell the alchemy items and potions he has produced to the whole of Europe. In that case, his income will not decrease, but may increase a lot!

As for part of the smuggling work, he still has to do it. This may help him get some rare and magical creatures so that he can get blood!

For example, five years ago, the wizard market bought a baby bird and snake, and finally sold it to an anonymous old witch. The specific price was not recorded on the book, and it would not be cheap if it wanted to...

It is worth mentioning that the dementors bought by the Doug Tetor were also obtained from the Wizarding Market. He can successfully train into the guardian of the gods, and I really want to thank the black market.

Click...

While Ivan was thinking about it, the door of the Bogembock store was opened, but Dougt came in from the outside.

"Little Ivan, I just heard Fren say that you are looking for me?" Doug said with a smile. Even though Ivan's current identity is different, he still wants to maintain this close relationship in private.

"Well, I have something I want to ask..." Ivan threw the ledger aside and asked. "How much do you know about those wizard families?"

Dougt was stunned for a moment, and then he explained to Ivan in detail.

He has a very wide network of contacts in the magic world. He has also investigated these wizard families because of conflicts with the wizard market, so he has a very detailed understanding.

The first is the leader of the Knot family, Dougte suspects that they have a tendency to extreme pure bloodism.

Because several of the older Knott’s brothers and sisters joined the Death Eaters camp more than ten years ago, and they have a good relationship with another Black family who admires pure blood.

Not long after Voldemort's debut, the old Knott also funded Voldemort some funds.

In the end, it is natural that there is no need to say more, it is completely a loss-making business, which directly caused the Knot family, which was originally very prestigious in the magic world, to suddenly weaken.

After the death of Reese Knott, only the old Knott was left among the direct members of the family.

"In short, the Knott family are the real managers behind the wizarding market, occupying at least half of the share, and the old Knott is also the most involved in daily operations!"

Dougte explained to Ivan, and after talking about the Knot family, he then took out the details of the three pure-blood families of Foley, Rozier, and Roll.

These families are not big or small. In addition to the wizarding market, they also have their own businesses. They have a certain influence in the magic world. They are relatively neutral families and rarely get involved in disputes.

According to Dougert, they remain neutral and just want to stand on the side of the winner!

The Parkinson family has a certain pure-blood tendency and relatively conservative. They usually bet on both sides. They once supported Voldemort's pure-blood policy, but did not contribute money, so Voldemort did not lose much when he fell.

"The Abbot family is slightly different. They are pure blood, but they are closer to Muggles. I heard that they have invested in the Muggle industry in London. Well... I heard that the Broken Cauldron Bar is somewhat related to the Abbot family! "

Dougte shook everything he knew, then commented. "It's a relatively law-abiding family!"

"Are you sure!" Ivan tapped the ledger on the table with his hand.

If this is the case, why should they become one of the founding families of the Wizarding Market, where they are doing gray and even illegal businesses.

"I mean, at least in recent generations, people have this tendency!" Dougt shrugged.

The wizarding market was established a long time ago, and the concept of the family may change with each generation.

The Abbot family is more law-abiding, but they are not stupid. Why don't they make money when they are rich?

Anyway, there are agents who will not dirty their hands. They just open one eye and close the other to get dividends every year...

Hearing what Doug said said, Ivan suddenly became clear, and he no longer knew nothing about these six pure-blood wizard families.

It's just that he still didn't understand what Old Rozier wanted to do. Ivan looked at Dougte and said suddenly. "Rozier just wanted to plead with Foley and the others... begging me to let them go! Except for the old Knott..."

"Rozier?" Dougt raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, and then sneered. "He must be thinking of pulling up a group of people to improve his status!"

Speaking of this, Dougte is also a little impatient, the resources and money owned by the five pure-blood families should not be underestimated!

If Rozier really persuades them to join the camp and become the new leader, then the importance of this guy will soar, and the status may catch up with him, which is not good!

Ivan lightly tapped on the desktop ~www.mtlnovel.com~ but he was secretly gratifying. He had realized the way to deal with brain patching, that is, using one brain patching to deal with another brain patching!

As long as there are enough brain supplements, conflicts with each other, no collusion of intelligence with each other, and a smarter questioning, he will immediately know what these people are supplementing.

It would not reappear the embarrassing scene of doing nothing before, but someone ran to him to claim credit, saying that the last arrangement had been done.

He has experienced this kind of things a lot, no matter how good his acting skills are, one day he will wear help...

Thinking like this, Ivan was somewhat difficult to judge whether he wanted to agree to Old Rozier's plea, so he looked at Dougte again and asked.

"Do you think old Rozier has this ability?"

Thanks to Hilo Yuri for the 10,000 starting coins rewarded by Chhleo, the 1,000 starting coins rewarded by Chhleo, and the 100 starting coins rewarded by the House of Everything.
