The Mightiest Wizard of Hogwarts
249 Conversation with Lucius
Instead, it will be held in the ballroom on the second floor.
At this time, Feeney and Sirius' visit and conversation with Lucius were not held here, but went to the special reception room on the second floor.
The first floor is essentially more of a decoration. Unless there are a large number of visitors, people rarely talk here.
"Welcome, I've asked the kitchen to start preparing lunch,"
After arriving at the living room, Lucius took the lead in breaking the calm among several people.
Feeney smiled and said,
"Then I'll look forward to today's lunch,"
Lucius smiled and nodded, inviting Finny and Sirius to sit down and talk.
When the three of them sat down, Lucius was still a little hesitant. He was hesitating whether to call Draco over. After all, Finny and Draco were both in Slytherin now. Although they were different in seniority, they could still be considered friends.
Classmates, maybe we can have a better exchange and use it to get closer.
After sitting down, Feeney smiled and said,
"Okay, Mr. Malfoy, let's get down to business first. We have enough time today to catch up on old things."
Lucius nodded,
"Just call me Lucius,"
"Of course, um, Lucius, I think you should know the real purpose of my visit today, right?"
Lucius was silent for a moment, and then said,
"There are some speculations about what happened on the Hogwarts Express last September,"
Feeney nodded, leaned on the sofa, gently put his right leg on his left leg, and said easily,
"Of course there is a part of the reason for that incident. Since Lucius you mentioned this matter, let's mention it now."
Lucius stopped smiling and leaned slightly forward to look at Feeney, extending his hand to signal Feeney to start.
Feeney smiled and said,
"Then Lucius, you should have heard Draco tell you the details of that matter, right?"
"Naturally, I already know what the Parkinson family has done,"
"The Malfoy family used to be a big family. Although it has a small population, it still retains part of its heritage. This part of the heritage is now the most valuable part of the Malfoy family. I think the reason why the mysterious man recruited you as his subordinate was because
That’s the reason.”
Lucius obviously didn't want to mention this matter. His identity as a Death Eater can be said to be an open secret in the wizarding world. However, on the surface, no one would point it out because this
This is something that has violated the interests of many pure-blood families.
Of course, among these people who dare not point it out, there is no such thing as Feeny.
Therefore, even though Lucius looked a little ugly, he still nodded and acknowledged,
Feeney continued,
"And the connection between Malfoy and Parkinson was established because of this identity, right? After all, the Parkinson family has a certain strength now, but compared with the Malfoy family, which was once a Presbyterian oath family, it is still
A little worse,"
Lucius nodded,
"So, Parkinson has always had the idea of marrying his daughter to Draco, and he has mentioned this to me more than once."
"But you never agreed, right?"
Lucius nodded,
"Indeed, compared with the Malfoy family, the Parkinson family may be strong enough, but inferior in background, so,,"
Lucius's meaning is very clear, that is, the Parkinson family is not worthy of the Malfoy family. There is no doubt about this.
After all, the Parkinson family is a new pure-blood family. It has never entered the Presbyterian Church. It has hundreds of years of history and does not have enough background. It is not even a school director of Hogwarts. Marrying Malfoy will not only fail.
If it brings any benefit to Malfoy, it will also drag down the Malfoy family.
This also proves why Astoria and not Pansy later married Draco in the original novel.
After all, the Greengrass family may be a little inferior in strength, but after all, they are a sworn family of the Presbyterian Church, and they are still publicly protected by the Presbyterian Church. As long as they are not looking for public anger, there will be no problems. In terms of background
More than the Malfoys,
The Malfoy family is also one of the emerging pure-blood families. It has enough economic and political strength in the wizarding world to complement the Greengrass family. Therefore, the ending of the original work is not that strange.
Speaking of which, there are a few surprising couples in the original work, Ron and Hermione. Although because of Finny’s words on the train, Hermione and Ron do not have as deep an intersection as in the original work, but it still needs to be admitted that in the original work
Inside, the two of them are a pair.
First of all, Hermione is a Muggle wizard, and her dream is to be the Minister of Magic.
You know, in the magical world based on blood theory, it is very difficult for Muggle-born wizards to enter the Ministry of Magic. If Hermione wants to achieve this step, marrying a pure-blood family is inevitable.
The only pure-blood family related to Hermione and able to enter her eyes is Weasley.
The Weasley family is also happy to have Hermione become one of them. You must know that the friendship between Hermione, Ron, and Harry is very deep. If Hermione does not choose Ron, then her choice will be
It would be Harry,
However, in their opinion, it is a better choice for Ginny to marry Harry. This will not only merge the Weasley family and the Potter family, make up for the original financial difficulties, but also get some good things.
With fame, Harry will also have a family that he likes.
Therefore, the ending of the original work is Hermione and Ron, Harry and Ginny, but in the final analysis, throughout the original work, the intersection between Harry and Ginny is concentrated in the last part. Before that, Harry and others have
some intersections,
However, after Harry saw the true darkness of the wizarding world, both he and Hermione began to develop a deep relationship with the Weasley family.
Even now, when Feeney thinks about the original novel in his memory, he feels that Ron is not worthy of Hermione, but Ginny and Harry are quite suitable. After all, one is a childhood fantasy, and the other is a cute dog.
Shaking his head slightly, Feeney looked at Lucius and said with a smile,
"However, it was precisely because of your hesitation that the Parkinson family became anxious. I am not very clear whether that matter was Pansy's own initiative or the Parkinson family's idea. However, if I had not been present at the time,
The Malfoy family's escape route will be cut off, and you will never have the chance to return to the embrace of the Presbyterian Church."
Lucius nodded, he knew very well that if Draco really pushed Harry to the side of Muggle wizards, maybe the Malfoy family would really be defined as abandoned children by the Presbyterian Council.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but pick up the teacup on the table next to him and gesture to Feeney.
"Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you for your help, Feeney. If you hadn't taken action in time, the consequences would have been disastrous."
Finny waved his hand, looked into Lucius's eyes and said,
"Well, Lucius, I think you should know the real purpose of my coming this time. It's not just because of such a small thing,"
Although Lucius had some guesses, Finny should still bring up such a thing, otherwise the result would be different.
"Want to hear the details,"
Feeney smiled and said,
"I hope the Malfoy family will openly express their attachment to the Black family and stand in our camp,"
Lucius was stunned. He thought that what Feeney needed was the Malfoy family's assets, power, or other things, but that was all to help the Black family behind the scenes, and the Black family only needed to face major crises at the Malfoy family.
It’s time to help,
But there is absolutely no such idea of a big gamble that will constrain the family's future path.
Feeney smiled and continued,
"Of course, Lucius, you should be very clear about the consequences of such a public statement, that is,,,,"
"Black's allies will be Malfoy's allies, and Black's enemies will be Malfoy's enemies."
Lucius was silent for a moment, then took over the second half of Feeney's sentence. He leaned on the sofa, looked at Feeney and asked,
"But why should I do this? In the case of Harry Potter, your actions have proven the Black family's actions to protect Malfoy. As long as I don't express my position, then the Malfoy family will have more allies.
But there won’t be more enemies,”
Feeney smiled and said,
"But, you don't have a choice, right? Or, wait for the mysterious man to return. The Malfoys will still be his dogs, but this time, the treatment of the Malfoys will become very poor. I think you should know very well that once
You, who sold most of your family property in order not to enter Azkaban, and the current Malfoy family cannot satisfy him, or in other words, will disappoint him,"
"Of course, the status of the Malfoy family determines that he will not take action against you, but it is very reasonable to take away your wand, or suppress the Malfoy family, or use this place as his base camp, isn't it?"
"The other option is to join us and completely break with the mysterious man. With Black and Selwyn behind him, although he will be against Richie and Lestrange, there is no need to worry about the threat of the mysterious man, right?
?”
"On the surface, they seem to be two choices. However, if you want to restore the Malfoy family to its former glory and want to preserve the family, you have only one choice, and that is me. Only in this way can the Malfoy family regain its status as a sworn family.
possible."
Lucius was silent. He knew very well that what Feeney said was true. However, he was still worried because he was once a member of the Presbyterian Church, so there were records about the Presbyterian Church in his family, and he had the ideal to restore the family's glory.
Naturally, he has read those records, so he knows very well that things between pure-blood families are not much safer than the war between the Death Eaters, the Order of the Phoenix, and the Ministry of Magic.
If the war between the mysterious man and Dumbledore is bloody, then the war between the Presbyterian Church is murderous without blood. Not to mention, few people in the wizarding world today know the reasons and reasons for the existence of the Presbyterian Church. For the unknown
His fear also made him very hesitant.
"Can you let me think about it for a while?"
Finally, Lucius whispered to him.
Feeney smiled and nodded,
"That's natural. In the final analysis, the choice you make is your own business. The reason why I will provide you with such a new choice is because cousin Narcissa is now also a member of the Malfoy family.
It’s just a member of the ”, after all, he was once a Blake,”
Lucius sighed and looked at Finny with some confusion, finding that he was really not in a hurry, or in other words, he really didn't care about his choice.
But why?
It's not that Lucius is arrogant, Malfoy is not as good as before now, but he has a certain status and reputation in the Muggle world, the magical world, and the Ministry of Magic, and he allows these places and the Black family to also
Almost the same,
Under such circumstances, why wouldn't Phineas Black care about Malfoy's choice?
In fact, this is not to blame Lucius, but also because many wizards from pure-blood families, including him, have underestimated Black's current power.
Even though Feeney has revealed some trump cards, he still has some back-ups. One of them is the part that Feeney is most proud of now, and that is the layout in the Muggle world.
Everyone underestimated the potential of Muggles and the power of the Muggle world. Starting from last Christmas, that is, December 1991, the country in the north completely disappeared in the long river of time, which also meant that
The world has entered a period of technological development, which has also given Finny and the Black family, who had already made plans, greater power in the Muggle world.
Among them, there is now a small country in Europe that was formed from the disintegration of that country. It is actually controlled by the Black family. Of course, it is not political, but economic. Through the disintegration of the country, the original currency ruble becomes invalid.
, after some short selling, the Black family took a large amount of money into their arms,
It seems that Muggle currency is completely useless to the wizarding world, because Gringotts' exchange has proportions and restrictions.
However, Feeney used a large amount of materials to exchange part of the money into actual items and flowed into the magical world, thus obtaining a large amount of gold galleons. In other words, he laundered Muggle currency into magical currency.
After all, wizards are also human beings, and they also need materials such as food, cloth, and minerals, and the value of these things in the magical world is far more than that of the Muggle world. Of course, some of them are from the Ministry of Magic and Gringotts.
Caused on purpose.
A large part of the remaining Muggle currency was used by Feeney to invest in some industries that he was optimistic about. After all, he came from time travel, and he still had the development trend of the world economy in the past few decades in his brain, although it was not very detailed.
, but in the face of a lot of money, just one is probably enough,
As long as one of the ten investments is successful, then Feeney will not lose money. If two are successful, it will be a net profit. Not to mention, Feeney's investments are far more than ten.
Therefore, now he really doesn't care about the Malfoy family's choice. He just wants Black to have a cannon fodder and more say when needed.
Of course, he will also actively let Malfoy enter the Presbyterian Church. After all, if Malfoy does not enter the Presbyterian Church, the right to speak he wants will not change.
