Chapter 1156?? British Wizards First
"The Ministry of Magic has always been very aware of the current plight of the British wizarding community, which is the chain reaction caused by the increasing lack of imports of raw materials... The reason why we did not respond to everyone's appeals before is because we are doing our best to find a way Prioritize and focus on solving this problem...and now we have found..." Owen waved his hand.
The staff member of the Minister of Magic, John Bartha, took out a water pipe that had been prepared, and the mist sprayed out from his mouth. The illusion formed spread in the air, and a huge world map was clearly projected in the air. , Some wizards who were restless at the scene asked in a low voice to the wizards around them: "Why did Harris show us the world map? Could it be that they plan to go to war?"
The illusion then changed, and Owen waved his wand at some places on this huge world map, marking a triangle in blue. "In the long history of these areas, either because they are located at the junction of the magic circles of other countries, the land is still remote, and the magic circles of these countries have given up their jurisdiction over these areas because of the neighbor relationship or the difficulty of development... just like In the unattended forest where Voldemort hid in Albania before, or like the island of Delia in the northernmost part of Scotland, because there are five-legged monsters of the XXXXX level who are particularly fond of cannibalism and have reddish-brown hair on the body and legs, so these The island has not been marked on the map, and we have not dispatched personnel to manage it..." Owen said with a smile on his face, "But according to our investigation, these areas exist, and some raw materials that we lack now... While these are still completely untapped and do not fully solve all our problems, we in the UK have the ability to solve them at present to help us delay the urgent need."
The remarks made by the British Minister of Magic caused quite a stir. Although many wizards did not realize what they were going to do, some quick-witted ones felt proud or panicked. Among the members of the Ministry of Magic who were also following behind the Minister of Magic, Sirius, who was listening to Owen's speech, suddenly realized when he saw this, he whispered to the female boss beside him, "Josephine, the information you asked me to give to Allen, Just for this?"
"Call me Director Harris!" The aunt straightened her sun hat angrily, "Shut up!"
"Many people wonder why Hogwarts suddenly started to move [www.bequge.vip]?" Owen smiled confidently, "The British Ministry of Magic is currently negotiating with Hogwarts and the umbrella. The Ministry of Magic will authorize the Umbrella Corporation to develop the above-mentioned unmanaged locations, since other countries can't control them, let us manage them."
Seeing that the Ministry of Magic gave practical solutions to solve the problem, and estimated that the lack of raw materials should be solved, some workshop owners who were facing shutdown looked a lot more relaxed. They calculated that although the materials in these places will not be collected immediately, it may not be I can fully find all the resources I need, but compared to the despair I had before, it is clear that there is finally hope for recovery—the only risk is the attitude of other countries, and whether the British Ministry of Magic can respond to this No matter how determined they are, at least Harris' style reassures them.
"Damn it! This is completely random! No one cares about these places, but these places are even surrounded by other countries!" Hidden in the crowd of protesters, Bosde couldn't help jumping out to object after being shocked,
"Are you asking Britain to rob other countries?!"
"Mr. Burst, just like I said at the beginning, I have to remind you that the places we have chosen are all uninhabited areas. Since they can't manage them themselves, let us have the ability to govern... this It can also help to comply with the Statute of Secrecy, because Muggles stray in and disappear in these places from time to time, which attracts the attention of Muggles..." Owen retracted his wand, straightened his back, and said in a decisive and forceful voice, "And to be honest, if A thief steals your things, a robber robs your goods, and you take back your own things, so, are you a thief?"
There were already quite a few more radical wizards in the audience, and they began to applaud enthusiastically under the tough and problem-solving approach of the UK. A few wizards who had participated in the protest before threw those slogans and protest signs aside.
Hearing that the relocation of the Floating Void City was to solve the problem of raw materials, the workshop owners who needed raw materials immediately cheered: the female owner of the Diagon Alley Pet Shop Magic Zoo, who was wearing thick black-framed glasses, couldn't even control the joy of throwing the The sorcerer embraced them all. The most indispensable thing in these primitive and unattended areas is wild magical animals; Swish and bang fireworks, set off to celebrate.
Alfred Crawford, the butler of the Bork family, took off his coat a little annoyedly, and said to Bosted beside him: "This farce of forced possession will escalate the already tense world situation again! Even It will be regarded as an invasion by these countries and trigger further conflicts, and more dangerously, it may push the UK to the brink of war! Do you want to risk the fate of our UK on your own terms?"
"You need to be clear about one thing, Mr. Bork's... butler?" Owen bit hard on the word "butler", "This incident is not the one that we in the UK first provoked. We in the UK are just leading in the mysteries of magic. We are at the forefront, and as I said before, we are still helping other countries maintain the implementation of security and secrecy laws, and help them develop magic technology..." Owen said with an angry face, "But how do they repay us? Just Suddenly united with some bandits and wanted us to hand over more? Trying to stop our development? And our current approach has been very restrained... I don't have our people to force open the blockade on us, although we have reasons and strength to do so Do... We have adopted a more secure approach for peace, choosing those neutral areas to be self-reliant... As for the tension in the world and their attitude..." He nodded confidently, "I am the Minister of the British Ministry of Magic, and my responsibility is priority Looking after our own wizarding needs, that's what British wizards expect from our magical government, that's first, number one... As for what other countries think and won't you be offended, you guys at the start of the embargo I don't care what the family that went out of business when there was enough is enough, I do... and now we're just taking back what we need from these places that no one cares about under this kind of unreasonable sanctions, and it's legally justifiable …My policy is that British wizards come first, do you think there is anything wrong with that, Mister Bock butler?"
The crowd erupted into louder cheers and applause, and even many members of the Ministry of Magic behind Owen patted the table—after the problem has been solved, no matter whether this is justice in nature, wizards now need speeches to make them feel I am righteous myself.
"British wizards first! Take back what's our own!"
"Our current suffering is caused by these foreign countries!"
"And those family traitors!
The pure-blooded wizards such as Burster and Alfred looked around and saw the reactions of these wizards around them. They were worried and wanted to find a point where they could break the situation and counterattack—if the UK is so tough now, they can find it now. The channel can get raw materials and materials that are not available in the UK, which is likely to completely resolve the crisis caused by the embargo. Then the plans for Harris that these pure-blood families discussed before are likely to will be forced to abort.
"Minister Harris, simply relying on these undeveloped desolate lands to survive the predicament is too much to take for granted! The output of these regions is not enough to restore the production and operation of our entire British magic world to normal." ...If these barren lands are really rich in products, we won't wait for us to develop them now..." After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Alfred finally came up with a reason to directly stand up and question Owen, "What's more, the types of materials in these places should not be complete, and there are also a lot of materials that require wizards from other countries to use their unique techniques for a second processing before they can be applied to our production. The problems we are facing There is no way to completely lift the embargo crisis." The Bork family's butler said louder and louder, "If our wizards don't stop losses in time, but instead invest more production costs, but the final resources can't keep up, then these wizards The losses we have to face will be even more serious, Minister Harris, have you considered these issues?"
The original enthusiasm seemed to be poured with cold water. The wizards didn't know what the output of these places was. They were afraid that this was a promise made by the Ministry of Magic.
Compared with the other party's increasingly sharp and excited tone, Owen's voice was calm and composed: "You are right, as you said, the resources we have found now are indeed not enough to meet the needs of the entire British wizarding community... This cannot Solve all the economic problems of our wizards..." Then the minister of the Ministry of Magic smiled at the crowd, "But other than that... we don't have this kind of means... In addition to the problem of raw materials for magic products, we also have a A series of economic recovery plans are about to be launched... For the specific situation, I think it would be better for Miss Hermione Granger, the president of Umbrella Corporation, to explain in detail..."
