Chapter 1722 A war without a winner (one hundred and seventy-two)

This is true, but it only applies to a very small number of girls who are actually in love.

If he hadn't really felt from Isobel that "a woman is a confidant, she is happy", Albert, who had lived in his previous life, would most likely regard these words as farts.

As soon as he entered the living room, Albert could clearly feel the strange atmosphere around him. The girls obviously seemed to be getting along well, but his intuition told Albert that this was just the peace the girls maintained on the surface. It is not difficult to see this from the fact that Valeria did not sit next to Catherine, but chose to sit on the sofa farthest from Hermione.

But Albert still had to pretend he didn't know anything, after all, the girls rarely saw each other a few times a year.

As soon as she sat down, Yanila took the initiative to sit over and asked Albert whether he would pass through Spain when traveling around the world next year. She also introduced to Albert the places worth visiting in the Spanish magic world. It seemed that she planned to wait for Albert. Act as their guide when passing through Spain.

This made Albert couldn't help but wonder if Yanila was hinting that he should take the initiative to do his part as a landowner and personally take the girls around the British magical world. Louise next to him obviously understood what Yanila meant, her eyes Looking at Albert brightly.

"You are so beautiful and popular. If I take you around the British wizarding world, you will definitely be on the front page of the Daily Prophet the next day." Naturally, Albert can't pretend to be himself. I didn't understand, especially when I noticed that the other girls were looking at me with attention, and they were obviously looking forward to being their guide.

"We can use the compound potion as a disguise."

Katherine, who was talking to Hermione about the situation in the wizarding world in the United States, suddenly suggested.

"You have to think about where you plan to go. To be honest, my understanding of the British magical world is relatively limited. Maybe Isobel can give you some suggestions." Although Albert has been to many places, he feels that the British magical world Outside of Hogwarts, there are probably not many places worth visiting.

However, he obviously didn't need to worry about this aspect. The girls were already prepared, otherwise Kathleen wouldn't have even prepared the compound potion.

In the afternoon, Isobel and Katrina visited the manor villa and were very satisfied with the bold dress designed by Hermione.

After seeing Hermione's carefully designed "dress", Yanila, who was still hesitant at first, also made a decision.

She didn't want to lose to anyone.

After the girls had dinner at the manor, Albert sent Hermione home who had no intention of staying overnight.

He did not return to the manor immediately, but stayed and chatted with Hermione for a while.

"It seems you get along well with the other girls."

"I'm not a fool, I won't cause you any trouble."

Naturally, Hermione could see that the friendliness shown by Albert's lovers was mostly fake, but so what, we rarely saw each other a few times a year, and there really was no girl with such a low emotional intelligence, leaving Albert with such a low emotional intelligence. Bad impression.

"Then what were you talking about earlier?"

"I talked to Kathleen about the situation in the wizarding world in the United States." Hermione smiled and added honey to Albert's cup of scented tea. She also took a cup and sat next to him. While drinking, she said, "No wonder You don’t like that country where there are restrictions everywhere, it does sound very unfree.”

Albert didn't express much opinion on this matter, but instead chatted with Hermione about the work of house elves in the United States.

"American wizards are ruthlessly exploiting the rights of house elves!"

Hermione was pleased that Katherine was willing to pay the house elves a slightly higher salary, and was angry that the house elves were being paid a shockingly low salary for their work.

"You can't expect American wizards to give house elves the same treatment as humans all at once. And if you need to spend the same salary as a wizard to hire a house elf, I think given the environment of the American wizarding world, the shops there will definitely He would be more willing to use the money to hire a wizard instead of a house elf. "Albert was not surprised that this would happen. After seeing Hermione's reaction to this matter, he still reminded him: " Don’t forget Dobby’s situation. Without Dumbledore, Dobby wouldn’t even be able to find a job.”

"But aren't you also willing to give Dobby a job?" Hermione suppressed her anxiety and couldn't help but ask.

"In fact, even I would not hire a house elf of unknown origin to help me take care of my housework. I'm afraid they can only do some less important tasks."

Albert looked up into Hermione's eyes and said, "Also, although it's a bit boastful to say that, do you think there are many people like me and Dumbledore in this world?"

Hermione was speechless!

Because Albert is right. There are indeed very few wizards in the entire British wizarding world who are as willing to treat house elves as gently as Albert. Harry may be able to count half of them because he is willing to hire Dobby, an acquaintance of his. , but only Dobby.

"So Hermione, you not only need to liberate the house elves, but you also have to find a way to find them a job. Otherwise, what if the liberated house elves can't find a job like Dobby?" Albert said seriously , "Similar situations have happened in the United States."

Hermione suddenly became confused because she realized that Albert was right.

My decision to liberate the house elves was completely made on the spur of the moment, but in the end I seemed to be unable to do anything well.

"Fortunately, the Avalon built later should be able to provide work for several house-elves." Albert reached out and touched Hermione's head, and whispered to comfort her, "So you still have plenty of time to solve this part of the problem."

Albert didn't know whether the house-elves could be liberated, and he didn't know why Hermione finally became the Minister of Magic.

Was it because she realized that liberating the house-elves was unrealistic and gave up, or did she hope to seek the position of Minister of Magic to better liberate the house-elves.

In any case, Albert didn't want Hermione to be hurt because of this.

"You are right, that was indeed the organization I decided to set up in a hurry, but I believe that the 'House-Elf Liberation Front' can be gradually improved."

Although she was reluctant to admit it, Hermione knew that Albert was probably right. If she really liberated the house-elves, would British wizards really be willing to hire house-elves?

Probably not!

There are probably not many wizards as open-minded as Albert and Dumbledore in the world. How to solve the long-term unemployment of liberated house-elves?

Would the house elf who couldn't find a job resent me?

Probably!

I was too naive.
