Harry Potter and the Old Ones

Chapter 178: Das Kapital

"Then Mr. Lockhart, how do we defeat Capital?" Xenophilius asked anxiously.

Tiera could see it, and when she mentioned her daughter Xenophilius, she immediately got angry and jumped over the wall.

After reading the previous articles written by Xenophilius, Tiera had a certain idea about him—

Xenophilius did have justice in his heart, with a pure heart and an ideal of serving the magical world.

Always a good guy.

But just like the gang of keyboard warriors that Tiera met online in her previous life, the big truths are told in one way, but if you let him do it with real guns and real swords, he will instead judge him.

Xenophilius was a good man but also weak and compromising.

In fact, it can be seen from the seventh part of the original work.

When I met Harry Potter at the wedding, I was righteous and righteous.

Her daughter had just been captured by the Death Eaters, and she immediately obeyed.

Although it is excusable, for a person like Xenophilius, if you don't put the fire on his eyebrows, he will always think about how to compromise and how to retreat.

"That's why I asked you to meet today," Gilderoy Lockhart said. "Otherwise, if it's just an appointment, we don't need to meet at all, right?"

"So you have a plan?" Xenophilius asked.

"Plan?" Gilderoy Lockhart shook his head and smiled, "Faced with such a monster of **** violence, what plan would work?"

"Then... what should we do?" Xenophilius asked desperately. "Could it be that we can only be exploited by it... still exploited by it?"

"We want revolution." Gilderoy Lockhart said decisively, "We can only revolutionize, we must revolutionize, the Ministry of Magic is now completely under the control of capital, and it is difficult to achieve results only by mild reforms. Only by violently overthrowing all classes and taking the means of production from capital, we can exterminate this cancer of all wizards, even all mankind, and all life."

"Then what shall we do?" Xenophilius asked again. "What do you need me to do?"

"Do you know why I worked with you, Mr. Lovegood," Gilderoy Lockhart asked.

"Why?" Xenophilius asked.

"I've noticed that The Quibbler's audience is mainly focused on werewolves, half-blood wizards, goblin goblins, people who want to integrate into wizarding society, and wizards in Knockturn Alley who are dissatisfied with the Ministry of Magic, right?"

"Yes," Xenophilius said.

"The primary task of our revolution is to distinguish who is our enemy and who is our friend, that is, to unite the progressive forces, win over the middle forces, and isolate the stubborn forces. Not everyone can be drawn in as our partner." Gilderoy Lockhart said, "Your "The Quibbler" magazine has a huge influence among the wizards at the bottom. These wizards are the most oppressed group of wizards, and they are the ones who most desire the transformation of the wizarding world and the demise of capital. A group of people who are our new force in smashing the rule of the capitalist class, all we have to do is spread the truth of capitalism and tell them the conspiracy of the Ministry of Magic."

"That's why I'm working with you on The Quibbler," Gilderoy Lockhart added, "not just a matter of submitting my novel, I hope you'll set aside three for me on your Quibbler. a board."

"Please speak." Xenophilius said seriously.

"The first section, of course, is the serial section of my novels, and now three novels have been drafted, namely "Harry Potter and the Lost Philosopher's Stone", "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Silence" And "Harry Potter and the Godfather of Azkaban," I plan to use my name and Mr. Potter's reputation as an assistant to "The Quibbler" to compete with the "Daily Prophet" for the right to speak."

"Okay, no problem," Xenophilius replied.

"Next, I'd like you to start a Ministry of Magic joke section, which mainly includes Ministry of Magic embarrassment, and some... satirical jokes." Gilderoy Lockhart said.

"Ironic jokes?" Xenophilius asked suspiciously. "I understand embarrassing things...even I have a lot of them, but ironic jokes...what are they?"

"For example." Gilderoy Lockhart thought for a while and said:

"A wizard who had his whole family killed by Voldemort shouted in the street: Lucius Malfoy is a Death Eater! The Auror ended up in Azkaban. The wizard asked why he was arrested, and the Auror replied: One is that you have insulted the Master of the Ministry of Magic, and the other is that you have committed double treason because you leaked Ministry of Magic secrets."

"It's like that," added Gilderoy Lockhart.

"Pfft—" Luna, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help laughing.

"Excellent, Mr. Lockhart!" exclaimed Xenophilius. "It is wonderful, the joke is wonderful!"

"I've won, I've won." Gilderoy Lockhart said modestly after taking a sip of red wine.

Hehe, Soviet joke, a treasure for all mankind.

"Are there any other jokes like this?" Xenophilius asked.

"Yes, I wrote some in my spare time while traveling, and I'll send it to you when I'm done sorting it out, but recently I've been writing a book so I can't fully focus on the creation of these kinds of jokes, so I hope this section After the serialization of my school flower is finished, it can be opened to the outside world, accepting contributions from other wizards, putting aside my brick and leading to more jewels." Gilderoy Lockhart said, "I will pay for the manuscript fee, tentatively scheduled for each A joke and a Galleon."

"No problem," Xenophilius agreed, "what about the third module?"

"The third module is a completely open module, and I hope you will solicit contributions from your readers," Gilderoy Lockhart said.

"Call for papers? What's the theme?" Xenophilius asked.

"About the miserable lives of low-level wizards, rumors that are unfavorable to the Ministry of Magic, the secrets of Ministry officials, the dark history of pure-blood families, whether it is true or false, as long as it is not too outrageous, it is up to you. Trial," Gilderoy Lockhart said.

"No problem, Mr. Lockhart," Xenophilius said.

"I will pay for the manuscript fee. In the beginning, there will be three articles in each issue. Anyone who is adopted will get a bonus of ten gold Galleons~lightnovelpub.net~ The follow-up can be increased to each issue according to the response of the Ministry of Magic and the number of subscriptions. Five articles." Gilderoy Lockhart said, "At the same time, I hope you save the contact information and residential addresses of all contributors. These can be developed into our partners, our comrades, and our comrades in the future."

"That's fine," Xenophilius agreed.

"When the time is right, I hope you can gather them all for me." Gilderoy Lockhart waved his hand, and a large thick book flew over from the bookshelf on the second floor and landed on Gilderoy. Rolohart's hand.

"I hope you can get them together and have a book conference together."

With that said, Gilderoy Lockhart slapped the book in his hand on the dining table and slowly pushed it towards Xenophilius.

Xenophilius picked up the book and saw on the cover that—
