Schelling knew that his goal was achieved, and Lucius was always the backbone of the family. The most important thing in the entire conversation was to make him willing to listen to his words.

　　 Schelling asked, "Father, what do you think is the biggest reason for the Dark Lord's failure?"

　　 Schelling’s thoughts jumped too fast, and Lucius was not sure what Schelling meant at the moment. He hesitated and said: "Too extreme? Too crazy?"

Schelling shook his head, "The Dark Lord only wants to rule by force and conquer people's hearts with terror. The difference between him and Dumbledore is that Dumbledore has the same power as him. Dumbledore chooses to act within the rules, and the dark The devil’s actions are based on momentary joy and anger, without rules, so—"

"Except for a few diehard loyalists such as Aunt Bella, Lestrange, etc., the Death Eaters seem to have a strong presence, but the Dark Lord actually doesn't have many true loyal followers. Once he is dead, the Death Eaters will talk No one is willing to inherit his will and continue to fight. Even when he knows that the Dark Lord is not dead, no one is willing to look for him and help him come back."

　　 Seeing Lucius can’t deny it, Sherrington had a pause and raised his tone: "I think that as a powerful pure-blood family, we don’t need to follow a mixed-blood wizard—"

　　 Lucius and Narcissa did not react. Obviously, they knew that Voldemort was of mixed blood, but Draco was shocked, and his face was full of disbelief.

"In my opinion, the Dark Lord is just under the banner of pure-blood supremacy, using pure-blood forces to complete his dream of dominance. You have also seen that the first war he set off did not bring the pure-blood family Any benefit, on the contrary, almost allowed the pure-blood family to enter history. I think that the glory of the family can no longer be placed in the hands of this loser."

Xie Lin continued to talk: "Actually, it is not only that we think, but other pure-blood families must be similar. If we can unite the power of the pure-blood families, then-even if the Dark Lord comes back, he is a polished commander. What great things can be done?"

　　 Lucius probably guessed what Schelling meant, "You mean...we want to unite with other pure-blood families?"

　　 Schelling’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his voice suddenly became cold, "Those who can unite, unite; those who can conquer, conquer; the rest, destroy! Only one voice is needed in the pure-blood family."

　　 Lucius took a deep breath. Oh my god, he never thought that he looked at his grown-up son in person, hiding so deeply...this is the rhythm of becoming a three-generation demon...

　　 He turned his head to cast a glance at Draco, and sighed in his heart. All the time, the next house owner he preferred was Draco, because Draco had the most temperament like himself. So when the children were very young, he secretly used a drop of blood from the two children to carry out a family secret ceremony.

　　Draco has been confirmed as the first heir to the Patriarch in this ceremony, and Schelling is the second heir.

　　 From the current situation, the main is weak and the vice is strong, and sooner or later the family will have trouble!

　　 Although the two brothers who are still young seem to be very affectionate and sympathetic to brothers and sisters, Lucius also knows that power corrupts people's hearts. It is difficult to guarantee that the two brothers will grow up and their relationship will not change. The problem now is that the profound magic involved in this family ritual, Lucius, is also a little understood, and he has no ability to reverse or change the ritual.

　　 Lucius' expression was very complicated, and thoughts that no one knew flashed in his mind.

Schelling didn’t know Lucius’s rich inner drama at the moment. He continued: “This is a long-term goal. In the short term, what we have to do is to raise the banner of the Malfoy family as soon as possible. , Academia, and education have all strengthened our influence, and let us establish a benchmark worthy of follow and trust as soon as possible. Therefore, it is urgent for me to invest in an artificially cultivated mushroom trading company."

Today Draco was stunned by this extremely impactful family conversation. He did not recover for a long time. At this moment, he slowly interjected: "Wait a minute! Will you underestimate it? Is the power of the Dark Lord now? If he has never been and we refuse to surrender, will we be killed by him directly?"

Schelling smiled and said: "Don't worry, this is not something we need to worry about. Let Dumbledore and Potter worry about it! The Dark Lord returns, even if we do nothing, naturally someone will take the lead to deal with him... Dumbledore I know, I’m afraid it’s more than us..."

　　Draco still wanted to stick to his own opinions. In his mind, the Dark Lord was the most powerful. He didn't think it was a good idea to defy the Dark Lord, "But..."

Schelling interrupted Draco forcefully, "Brother, think about it first. Since the Malfoy family landed in Great Britain in 1066, why have they been able to stand tall in the British wizarding world for more than 900 years? Does pure blood come first?"

　　 Draco raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it? Pure blood bestows us nobility, and gives us identity, status and symbol!"

　　 Schelling sighed, Draco will grow up like this, although it is Lucius and Narcissa's pot, but he really did not have the responsibility of being a brother. Of course, this is not to blame Schelling. In his previous life, he had no children and was not an educator. It is well known that education is easy and difficult to do. There is no shortage of examples in the Muggle world where parents teach bear children.

　　 Xie Lin carefully worded: "Unfortunately, brother, I must tell you, at this point, you are wrong!"

Schelling’s eyes are piercing, with absolute confidence shining, “Throughout Malfoy’s long history, there are no lack of examples of intermarriage with Muggle nobles. Many of our properties and title deeds are obtained from the Muggle world. Lucius I, the ancestor of the 16th century, even had titles and nobility in the Muggle world, so there has never been a saying that Malfoy relied on pure blood to get rich."

　　 (Note: Lucius I was from Pottermore, and she once cursed Queen Elizabeth I because of her failure to pursue the British Queen Elizabeth I, which made her hate the marriage relationship from then on)

　　 Schelling noticed that both Lucius and Narcissa had expressions that were hesitant to talk. They both resisted not having a seizure, but their tight lips had already betrayed their inner anger.

Xie Lin's conversation turned, "Do you still remember the three ancestors of the Malfoy family? Let me tell you, one of them is-never put eggs in the same basket. This is what the Malfoy family can do. The biggest reason that has survived to this day! Supporting the pure-blood theory may have won so much for us in the past few centuries that we have forgotten the ancestral training. Now—"

"The theory of pure blood is outdated. Open your eyes and see how many pure blood families still exist — Gunter is gone; Abbot no longer insists on pure blood; Black, Crouch, and Shafik exist in name only; now it is The world of mixed blood has increased, and people’s acceptance of Muggles has increased. There are more and more cases of intermarriage between wizards and Muggles. Let’s say that in Hogwarts, we’re doing well this year. Mixed-blood wizards and Muggle wizards It looks more than a pure-blood wizard!"

(Note: According to the author's statistics, of the "initial forty people" in Rowling's manuscript, 3 were of Muggle origin, 14 were of pure blood, 12 were of mixed blood, and 11 were of non-Muggle species but the specifics are unknown. This data is unknown. The sample can represent all wizards born in the UK in 1979-80. It can be seen that the combination of Muggle wizards and mixed-blood wizards has become the backbone of the wizarding society)

"It's not wrong to stand in the pure-blood camp and insist on pure-blood supremacy, but-should we also consider the other camp? Make plans for the future of the family?" Schelling said loudly, even Lucius retorted Not coming.

　　 After all, what Schelling said is justified and well-founded. Compared with the illusory glory of the pure blood concept, the Malfoy family pays more attention to practical interests, as well as the survival and continuity of the family.

Lucius said lightly: "Okay! This topic ends here. Schelling, if you have any ideas, just let it go! Dad will support you, but Dad also wants to try to stick to his own ideas, pure-blooded family It's not as unbearable as you think. Of course, we can bet on both sides as you said. Muggles and half-blood wizards will leave it to you."

Seeing that Lucius was in the same position as himself, Draco immediately gained confidence. At this time, he stood up and felt his presence. "Listen well, Schelling, I will prove to you that my parents and I are right. of!"

　　 This family meeting is over.

　　 Schelling returned to the bedroom and took out a locked folder from the suitcase. He used a magic wand to gently pierce a small hole in his left index finger. A bright red blood drop was squeezed out from the index finger. He gently pressed the blood drop on the lock and the folder opened with a snap.

The folder is divided into layers of classifications. On each classification, you can clearly see the labels written in codewords—the United States, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Peru...Schelling’s fingers are on the classification label of the United Kingdom. On the top, I pulled out a long piece of parchment. On the top of the parchment, the names of the ancient pure-blood families were written.

　　 Death Eaters faction:

　　Black (crossed)

　　 Carlo Carrow (painting stars)

　　 Lestrange

　　 Avery Avery

　　 Selwyn

　　 Yaxley

　　 Burke (tick)

　　 Rosier Rosier

　　 Rowle

　　Travers

　　Nott (tick)

　　——————

　　 Neutral faction:

　　Flint

　　 Bulstrode (painting stars)

　　 Parkinson Parkinson (tick)

　　 Fawley

　　 Shafiq Shafiq (tick)

　　 McMillan

　　 Abbott

　　 Greengrass (tick)

　　 Crouch (painting stars)

　　 Ollivander

　　 Slughorn (painting stars)

　　——————

　　 Phoenix Order faction:

　　 Weasley Weasley (cross)

　　 Prewett (cross)

　　 Longbottom Longbottom (cross)

　　 Shacklebolt (cross)

　　 Seeing this, Xie Lin sighed softly. It seemed that there was still a long way to go. "Unfortunately, time doesn't wait for me!"

　　 If everything still develops according to the plot in the original book, Voldemort will officially return at the end of this semester. Although Malfoy Manor will not be immediately requisitioned as the headquarters of the Death Eaters, it is certain that the Death Eaters will come in and out. If you think about it this way, it is actually no different from the headquarters.

　　 Schelling gently put the parchment in his hand back to the British classification sandwich in the folder, and glanced over the French classification sandwich on the next layer, revealing a thoughtful expression...

　　 There is also a saying in France that there are 12 families of the Holy Blood, but the French branch of Lestrange has long been severed, and now there are only 11 families left. To put it bluntly, they also have a lot of ties with the Malfoy family. After all, the first generation of the Malfoy family came from France to follow the Duke of Normandy to Great Britain.

　　 (Note: The French pure-blood family is not fabricated by the author. It is extracted from the official Leestrange genealogy. It must be pure blood to marry the extremely pure-blooded Leestrange)

　　 With the help and lead of Lucius, Schelling spent 15,000 gallons before purchasing the artificial mushroom trading company.

　　 The cultivation garden where magic mushrooms are cultivated is handed over to the children of the family. Schelling is very fortunate that he was born in the Malfoy family. The family has never lacked business and management talents. Otherwise, it would take him a lot of thought to deal with this business. Take a look at Olivander, the big boss has to take care of the shop himself! The Wesley twins in the original book have to make every prank product by themselves!

　　 Then, Schelling approached the wizard merchant Ali Bashir through Lucius’s connections.

　　 Bashir is a wizard merchant who specializes in magic items. UU看书www.uukanshu.com Schelling heard that Bashir recently wanted to introduce the magic flying carpet to the UK market, but he was frequently blocked because it did not comply with the British law. The reason for Arthur Wesley’s refusal was that the magic flying carpet was there. The banned magic items are defined as Muggle handicrafts in the register and are therefore prohibited.

Schelling took a fancy to his experience and talents in international trade. Bashir is also actively looking for opportunities to make money. The two sides immediately made a deal and signed a series of binding magic contracts-Bashir will assist Schelling to import Some foreign magic herbs, such as the shrunken fig from Abyssinia, the snake wood from North America, the biting cabbage from China, the Mibumibao from Assyria...

　　 These trades are actually not profitable. First of all, the International Magic Trade Standards Association will have to levy a lot of taxes. The sales network is also limited to a few monopolistic chain pharmacies in the UK. It is helpless to suppress the price.

But Schelling, who is financially strong, doesn’t care about this small amount of money. He wants to establish a strong interest relationship with Bashir through these cooperations in advance. In the troubled times in the future, Schelling needs talents who are proficient in international trade. By then, Bashir’s talents will be improved. Will come in handy.

　　 In the remaining time, Schelling devoted himself to the study of Ravenclaw's collection of books and research notes. With his in-depth research, he became more and more knowledgeable about the method of solving the blood curse mentioned in the research notes.

　　 It is a highly complex seal series curse seal, which can seal the power of the curse without causing harm to the blood curse host.

　　 The feasibility of this method is quite high, and his magic level is enough to successfully use it. He carefully analyzed and decomposed the entire surgical process, and even made bold improvements on the basis of Ravenclaw's theory. Finally, he kept every step in his heart and practiced many times until he was comfortable.
