The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts
Chapter 298: Fire dragon is an economic crop
"You mean, the fire dragon poaching has never disappeared, and it's still very rampant?"
Hermione said with a pale face.
He thought of a lot through Link's description, but it was already the scariest thing she could think of.
"Simply hunting fire dragons can't supply such a large market. After all, the fertility rate of fire dragons is very low. The reality is worse than this, Hermione." Link said calmly, "In fact, most of the fire dragon materials, They are all spread from the officially established dragon farms and dragon protection areas.
Those grand-sounding dragon trainers are kind-hearted fire dragon lovers on the surface. But in fact, they will peel off part of the scales and dragon skins from the fire dragons every once in a while, and then bleed and cut the meat, and then sell them to specialized processing plants to make goods.
In addition, they will train fire dragons so that they can participate in some commercial performance activities. For example, in our Triwizard Tournament, the appearance fee of the four fire dragons is not low. As for how they train the fire dragon, I can also give you an example.
There is a fire dragon hidden in the underground treasure house of Gringa, which is used to guard the treasure! This is no secret, I believe most of you should have heard of it. This fire dragon was tamed underground by the fairies since childhood. And the way the fairies train it is to use the sword to chop it, and shake a special bell at the same time. Shake it, slash it!
Over time, even if you don't cut it, but just shake the bell, the fire dragon will instinctively feel pain and follow the fairy's words.
I guess that even if the methods used by those dragon trainers are not cruel to the fairies, it is estimated that they will not be much worse. "
Link took a deep breath, suddenly raised the volume and said:
"I know that many of you want to ask me why I killed the Hungarian Tree Peak Dragon! What I want to tell you is that this dragon asked me to do this!
Yes, I know that it sounds like a quibble! But this is the fact!
I have already learned the chanting mantra and the super-sensing mantra.
Through these two spells, I can perceive the emotions of the fire dragon to the maximum!
At the last moment, every scale on its body, every look in its eyes told me!
It does not want to be imprisoned and abused like slaves and crops! ! "
Link's volume is not too loud, especially for the students who have just experienced a sensation in the arena not long ago.
But at this moment Link's words stopped in their ears, but they also had a deafening effect.
Everyone, including Hermione, who was still a bit aggressive before, and the pedestrians passing by, all looked at Link with dull expressions.
Emily smiled brighter.
She took a deep look at Hermione who was still unresponsive, and snorted disdainfully.
It wasn't until now that she really removed Hermione from her list of rivals, and she truly believed what Link said to her in the tent.
Link really wouldn't like Hermione's character.
"Well, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, let's stop wasting time anymore. Let's go back to the banquet!"
Emily applauded gently, and the voice of the superior and the protagonist awakened everyone.
Although she was a Slytherin, in principle, Hufflepuff shouldn't have bought her.
But at this moment, everyone in Hufflepuff, including John and Cedric, nodded very obediently, and began to walk towards Hogwarts Castle.
Hermione's expression was extremely complicated, standing there like a scarecrow.
Link's words just now almost shattered her three views.
Harry, who came later, also heard Link's speech, comforting Hermione and Ron at this time.
"Miss Granger," Emily stood up suddenly in front of Hermione and said as a winner, "Would you like to come to our banquet together?"
"Hermione, no..."
Harry was anxious to stop, after all, their Gryffindor would have the same celebration party tonight. It was outrageous for Hermione to leave her family to attend Hufflepuff's banquet.
But before he could finish speaking, Hermione stubbornly raised her head and stared at Emily:
"I'm going!"
"Ha ha ha! Then hurry up with us!"
Emily covered her mouth and smiled, then led Hermione to Hogwarts Castle.
Harry and Ron glanced at each other, and finally they could only quickly follow.
...
When it comes to banquets, even though Gryffindor and Slytherin students can rely on beatings to get a lot of good things off campus, Hufflepuff still has the best conditions.
This is a matter of course.
Hufflepuff College is not only located next door to the Hogwarts kitchen, but also thanks to Ms. Hufflepuff, the house elves have had a special affection for Hufflepuff students for thousands of years.
As a direct result of this, the three of Harry were stunned as soon as they entered Hufflepuff College.
Because although it was only the afternoon, the Hufflepuff Lounge had already been lined up with neat tables, chairs and tableware.
And after Cedric announced the official start of the celebration banquet, all kinds of delicacies appeared on the plates instantly.
Both the entire banquet process and the richness of the dishes are no worse than the formal banquet at Hogwarts!
"This is really... ridiculous!"
Harry said blankly.
The private banquet of Gryffindor College can not invite the house elves of Hogwarts, so everyone can only take out their hidden snacks and drinks and get together to celebrate.
In the old days Harry still thought it was very interesting and very rich.
But compared with the exaggerated and outrageous Hufflepuff celebration banquet in front of them, the Gryffindor party they held was like a picnic for elementary school students out on a spring trip. It was not a banquet at all!
"So hearty! Oh! Pumpkin syrup pie? Isn't this a special Halloween dish? How can it appear here?"
Ron pointed to a large stack of pies exuding a strong aroma and exclaimed in amazement.
"This is what we specially prepared for Mr. Link Foley! Because the favorite food of Mr. Link Foley is pumpkin!"
A shrill voice suddenly rang from Harry's feet. He looked down and saw a house elf with a fancy graffiti pillowcase on his body and a flower socks on his head.
"Harry Potter! I'm so glad to see you again!"
Yang Xiaojing waved to Harry.
"Dobby! Why are you here!?"
Harry was extremely pleasantly surprised.
Because this house elf named Dobby is also his old friend.
The two of them first met in the second grade, when Dobby, as the house elf of the Malfoy family, came over to inform Harry in private. Although it caused a lot of trouble for Harry in the middle, they got along pretty well in the end.
Moreover, Harry played some tricks to get Lucius Malfoy to give Dobby a sock, so that Dobby returned to freedom.
Reuniting old friends is always full of joy.
The little emotions that Harry had previously appeared because of the environment were wiped away in an instant, and he began to chat with Dobby.
On the other hand, Link's atmosphere looked a little strange.
Most people, including Link and Emily, were maintaining a very weird reluctance, listening to Hermione standing next to Link's eloquent speeches.
Well, Hermione also held a large... medal in her hand.
Of course, the engraved on this badge is no longer...(vomiting), Hermione used magic to add a letter D representing the fire dragon in the middle of these letters, indicating that she has included the responsibility of protecting the fire dragon. Of the House Elf Rights Promotion Association.
And the speech she is giving now is to tell the truth to everyone in Hufflepuff, hoping to get the support and participation of everyone.
This is the main reason why she agreed to come to Hufflepuff for the banquet this time.
Link is the most likely and hopeful member of the ‘big guy’ she thinks!
At this time, Emily was already so happy, she sneered on Link's back and said:
"I can't do it anymore! Really! Haha! How can she be so cute! She's so ridiculous! She is silly studying, right?"
Link couldn't answer Emily's words, but he still shook his head with a wry smile watching Hermione who was speaking out of righteous indignation.
Hermione's ideas were so naive.
The profit of the fire dragon industry is extremely astonishing. If there is no crushing power and a forward-looking, kind and determined zf, it will not be banned or strictly controlled.
Moreover, the fire dragon industry is also related to the vital interests of thousands of households. Even if the strict control measures are implemented, it will cause a huge backlash from the bottom people.
Just like Link’s previous hometown, the use of plastic bags in supermarkets was completely restricted before he came.
As a result, the bottom-level response can be said to be quite...
After all, after many people are accustomed to convenient and cheap plastic bags, it is really difficult to accept expensive and not very durable non-woven bags.
The same examples include express packaging, disposable tableware, and so on.
The protection of the rights of house elves is even more troublesome.
Because the enslaved elves, who have undergone such a long period of brainwashing, do not want to be free themselves.
You can't wake up someone who pretends to be asleep!
Hermione can't even persuade the person who needs to be saved, how can she let the majority of people with vested interests give up their own interests?
Both of the above are quite complicated problems, and Hermione can't solve them with just one shot of your own mouth.
What's more, Hermione's current mouth-cannon skills are really not very good.
If you want to give a speech, you can give a good speech. Once you speak, it’s not impossible for everyone to join the association. After all, your starting point is good.
just……
Hermione’s current words are full of her own grievances. She is scolding in front of her, both openly and secretly. These Hufflepuff students are cruel capitalists who exploit the house elves. The reason is that these people command the house-raising children just because of their own selfish desires. The elves work overtime to help them cook so much without paying for them!
When being scolded as a dog, it's so weird that someone would give Hermione a good face!
Link sighed and walked out a little disappointed.
He was going to go outside, after all, this banquet was basically ruined by Hermione.
Since everyone’s attention was focused on Hermione, including Emily (she likes to watch Hermione being hated and hated by others), Link easily left the Hufflepuff Lounge alone , And came all the way to Snape's office.
"I thought you should be having a banquet with those little monsters right now."
As soon as he entered the door, Snape's indifferent voice rang.
At this time, it was very rare that he was not brewing potions, but made a cup of coffee and sat on the recliner to drink.
"It was originally like this, but unfortunately, it was a bit disappointing."
Without anyone else, Link took a tube of potion from the shelf and drank it. This is the newly developed nutrient for hunger, pumpkin flavor. "By the way, Emily is also attending the banquet in the Hufflepuff Lounge. If she knew you said she was a little monster..."
Snape's movements froze, and there was a wave of ripples in the coffee cup in his hand.
Although it was accidentally injured, things would be very troublesome if Emily knew about it.
Because Emily was actually very bad, so bad that even Snape would retaliate.
Of course, her retaliatory methods will be milder in comparison.
The most commonly used method is probably to run to Snape crying and pretending to be pitiful, condemning Snape for even cursing such a lovely girl as her, unless Snape gives her a lot of precious potions and materials. Non-stop.
Thinking of the potion he had been blackmailed by Emily in the past, Snape's expression was a bit ugly, and even his attitude towards Link became worse.
"Say it! What are you doing here?"
Snape said wickedly, according to past experience, this guy Link must have his own purpose.
"Oh! I'm just here to hide away quietly!" Link sighed, "Professor Snape, you really changed! I'm your best student, how can you make such a speculation on me!"
Who has changed?
Obviously I have been used by blackmail all the time, OK!
You and Emily, these two little guys were so cute when they were young, how come they have become so bad when they grow up!
Snape snarled frantically inside ~lightnovelpub.net~ but after seeing Link's lost look, his expression softened a bit.
I thought maybe Link really just came to hide quietly.
Does this office have a special place in Link's heart?
Otherwise, wouldn’t a responsive room be a better choice if it’s just hiding in silence?
Thinking of this, Snape was even slightly moved.
But before his touch lasted long, he heard Link say this:
"Actually, I really want to ask Professor Snape for your help!"
Snape was stunned, huh? With a cry, when seeing this, Link scratched his head embarrassedly:
"Kakarov, I always feel that he is coming to Hogwarts this time with a different kind of conspiracy. Can you help me to test it?"
