Chapter 2043 See You From the Brandt Family
Things are developing just as Mrs. Maxim predicted.
Denmark was attacked, and regardless of the current tragic situation in the local area, at least Germany is definitely the "second" concern about this change.
Germany, which is closely connected to the Danish border, is already in a state of intense anxiety at this moment, whether it is the head of the Muggles or the leader of the magic world.
After Denmark is done, it will probably be their turn!
"Ma'am, someone from the Brandt family has come and said they want to see Ma'am—"
Hearing the administrator rushing to the office to report, Maxim almost didn't have to think about it, and soon understood the reason for the other party's visit.
"'ask to see'?"
Her expression looked a little subtle.
"Yes," the administrator of Beauxbatons immediately nodded and said, "Ma'am, I didn't add oil and vinegar to it myself! This is what the other party said personally, and I am only responsible for relaying it."
As mentioned earlier, Beauxbaton's administrator is different from Hogwarts, he is also a wizard. And as a well-informed wizard, he certainly has a lot of knowledge about the magic world.
The Brandt family is to Germany what the Blois family is to France. Not to mention that the local magic circle is well-known, but the difference is not too much. Because he started out as a nutrition dragon farm, producing and selling various fire dragon materials, needless to say his wealth, his reputation in Europe is not small.
Perhaps because of this, the Brandt family has always been very confident, and the family is also "abundant" with proud and self-satisfied people. To be honest, in the elite circles of the European magic circle, the members of the Brandt family have never been very likable.
But... Of course, among the big families and big powers whose interests are paramount, personal character is obviously not absolute. As long as you abide by the rules and keep your credibility in the business field, then the quality of your personal relationship will only become a chat after dinner at best.
And it has to be said that the members of the Brandt family are always shrewd in business—at least they never completely implode their relationship with others.
Moreover, they are obviously not stingy about bowing their heads to others when it is necessary to give in.
"Really?" Maxim paused after hearing this, "Who is here? Is it the representative sent by the Brandt family to the Resistance Alliance?"
When Hermione, Maxim, and the old butler went to recruit people to create the Resistance Alliance,
The Brandt family in Germany is obviously not very cooperative. Although they joined in the end, it can be seen from the fact that their family only sent a deacon with a foreign surname from one region as a representative, that they never paid much attention to this alliance.
Or, in fact, I don't want to get involved in it myself.
After that, due to Hermione's strong performance at the meeting and the successive victories on the front line, the Brandt family finally became more cooperative. Forming a coalition to provide combat power and collecting resources for supply and consumption can be regarded as a contribution to the alliance's resistance plan.
However, until the situation deteriorated, they began to fall with the wind again, and even sneaked down to do some contrarian things. If Mr. Blois hadn't come back to live in Beauxbatons by chance at the most critical time, they might have made more troubles.
But now, when the Danish incident happened, the idiots of the Brandt family finally couldn't sit still. Because obviously, no matter how much they like to stand on the sidelines, but now the fire is going directly to the top of the wall, how can their grassroots be firmly established?
"It's not that representative." The administrator shook his head and said, "That person claims to be a member of the family's council, and his surname is also Brandt."
"Oh?" Maxim nodded after hearing this, "Then...well, please ask him to sit in the side hall! I'll be there in a while."
"Yes, ma'am."
The administrator responded, then turned and walked towards the door. But when he walked to the door and was about to open the door to go out, he seemed to think of something and added:
"That's right! Ma'am, it's not 'he', it's 'she'——a lady came, and she doesn't actually look very old."
Before he finished speaking, he left the office and closed the door behind him.
"'she'?"
Maxim chewed the word for a while, and after a few seconds, he said to himself with some clarity:
"Patriarch Brandt...does he want to play the emotional card? Or is it actually a sympathy card?"
...
It is not surprising that the Brandt family intends to seek help from the Resistance Alliance, so it is not difficult to guess why they sent someone to visit Mrs. Maxime in Beauxbatons.
But to be honest, Madam Maxim is actually just a breakthrough point for them. And the people the other party really wanted to show off to were mostly the Bulova family, Hermione and others who were facing the living corpses on the front line.
Even said, it is Maca!
In this regard, Maxim is still very self-aware - Beauxbatons, after all, is just a magic school, and she herself is not a strong person like Dumbledore or Maca.
Therefore, Mrs. Maxim, who was self-aware enough, sent someone to find Butler Blois before going to the side hall to meet the other party.
"Mr. Housekeeper, Madam just hopes that you can accompany her to meet the visiting Brandt family member. Even if you just sit there and don't speak, it's fine."
When Maxim's people found the old housekeeper, they found him sitting in the garden, quietly accompanying Willy who was tending the flowers and plants.
Since Mr. Blois went to the front, Willie and the old housekeeper have almost always been in this state—watering flowers and weeding during the day, and sleeping quietly in the silence at night without thinking about anything. From time to time, the old butler would handle some necessary family affairs on behalf of Mr. Blois, but most of them were not important, and he was only responsible for making suggestions, basically without too much burden.
Perhaps, this is similar to retirement life after retirement! Although as a housekeeper, he didn't actually "retire".
"I won't go!" Looking at the person coming, the old housekeeper shook his head slightly and said, "I will no longer interfere with the affairs of the alliance—at least until the head of the family returns. Go and tell the madam! Now it doesn't represent the Bulova family sitting there, so...it's useless to go there."
"this--"
The old butler refused to agree, and the other party was obviously very embarrassed. I saw him look left and right, and when he saw Willie squatting in the flower bed busy, he couldn't help but take a second look.
However, at this moment, the old housekeeper frowned slightly.
