Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

Chapter 502: Boy, do you know Hogwarts? (2)

Zhang Xu's big change panda made today's tea party a great achievement.

It can be seen that the Owen family still has many questions to ask, so he immediately changed his eyes amidst the excitement, surprise and disappointment of the family.

After Zhang Xu sat down in the chair again, Mr. Owen asked, "Mr. Zhang, what do you wizards think of us ordinary people who you call ‘Muggles’?"

Zhang Xu took a sip of tea, and then said: "On this question, I have no intention of concealing some of the dark parts of the answer."

"On the whole, the attitude of wizards to ordinary people is basically very friendly. Many wizards choose ordinary people to be the other half of their lives. The new principal of our school, Professor McGonagall, her first love is one. The son of an ordinary farmer. But for some reason, they didn't get together in the end."

"However, a small number of wizards will look down upon or even discriminate against ordinary people who have no power in their eyes because of their own extraordinary power. In school, most of these people just have a little disrespect in language. "

"However, in general, the situation is developing on the bright side. Among the younger generation of wizards, the proportion of equal treatment of ordinary people is getting higher and higher."

"Moreover, among the current students, the achievements of wizards whose parents are ordinary people are no less than those of wizards who have been self-proclaimed for hundreds of years."

Zhang Xu spoke earnestly, and the Owen family listened earnestly. He did not hide from the Irving family the discrimination of the Muggle-born wizards by the pure-blood families, and described Hogwarts as a white lotus. Because these things cannot be concealed, and there is no need to conceal them.

He had a general understanding of the Irving family before he came. Mr. Owen is engaged in financial work and can be said to deal with nonsense all day long. Mrs. Owen teaches at the University of Liverpool and knows all about the stories and accidents under the water of the school. Although their understanding of the magical world is very strange, people have something in common, and they can easily tell whether they are telling the truth or not.

"Oh, it seems that discrimination is everywhere." Mr. Owen said with emotion, "Big companies discriminate against small companies, and graduates from prestigious universities discriminate against..."

Mr. Owen stepped on the brakes amid the soft cough of his wife.

"If Michael went to Hogwarts, he would not be harmed by those people." Mrs. Owen said with concern.

"Just beat back like a man." Zhang Xu replied.

This answer is obviously in line with Mr. Owen's appetite. When he was young, it coincided with the victory of the Falklands War. Mrs. Thatcher's tough style of fighting for a tooth obviously had a great influence on him.

"What about the jobs after graduation?" asked Mrs. Owen. "We know from books that wizards don't have much jobs after graduation."

To be honest, this question is really not easy for Zhang Xu to answer, because with the current social status of the Owens, they might not look up to those jobs in the magic world.

At this time Zhang Xu could only tell the truth.

"To be honest, I have always maintained reservations about the work in the British wizarding world." Zhang Xu curled his lips.

The Owens were surprised when they saw Zhang Xu's appearance, and then frowned slightly. Parents are very concerned about the future of their children.

Zhang Xu continued: “Graduates with excellent grades generally join the Ministry of Magic, that is, the wizards themselves manage the work of the wizard's department."

"And the other students...Ah...I say so, the British magic society is still in the handicraft-led economic structure before the first industrial revolution. Although this society is undergoing changes, the speed of change is It's too slow."

"From my personal point of view, I don't want Michael to live in a world that lacks vitality."

Both the Owens frowned.

Mrs. Owen said cautiously: "Then it will be difficult for us to agree to Michael's study at Hogwarts. We must be responsible for his future."

Zhang Xu understands Mrs. Owen's caution, because she is afraid of accidentally angering Zhang and then being used by Zhang to perform all kinds of strange magic.

Michael, who was sitting next to Zhang Xu, couldn't sit still, but he knew that at this time, his parents' opinions must be taken seriously.

"I can understand your concerns." Zhang Xu replied with a smile, "If I had children, I would have this kind of thinking."

"Mr. Zhang, you just emphasized that what you are talking about is the magical world, so can I understand that it will be another way in the world of our ordinary people?" I am used to looking for and finding the other side's language useful in negotiations The details of Mr. Owen first discovered a noteworthy place in Zhang Xu’s words.

"Yes, some people in No. 10 Downing Street are wizards working for the British government." Zhang Xu nodded gently and replied, "A member of the House of Lords I know is a member of the British royal family. The wizards of the family who have served for hundreds of years, the ancestors of their family can find their names in the history books. In addition, I also know some wizards from the military and intelligence agencies."

The three views of the Owens were refreshed, and Zhang Xu also briefly introduced the history of this aspect to them. It took a while before they accepted this fact.

At this time, Zhang Xu asked Mrs. Owen: "Mrs. Owen, I wonder if you have recently heard of the'Prometheus Project' that the British government recently secretly implemented in the'Red Brick University'."

Mrs. Owen suddenly looked at Zhang Xu alertly. She had only heard about this plan a little bit, and this plan had a certain level of confidentiality. She knew that this plan was because her mentor had accidentally missed it. The content of this plan is that "Red Brick University" will prepare to accept a group of extremely special students.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Owen's mind suddenly came to light. Could "extremely special student" mean someone like her own son? She glanced at her son silently, and then cast a questioning look at Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu met her gaze and nodded silently.

After getting the affirmative answer, Mrs. Owen breathed a sigh of relief. As far as she has received higher education, her son will only go out of society after receiving a better education than a five-year middle school. This is something she cannot tolerate. Now that she knows that her son still has the opportunity to pursue higher education, she is finally relieved.

Owen and his son looked at the two people who didn't know what to do with a puzzle, and didn't know what the plan this Mr. Zhang meant.

Then Mrs. Owen briefly explained the content of the plan to the father and son, but she couldn't explain it in detail, because she knew very little.

Regarding this, Mr. Zhang was laughing while drinking tea beside him~www.readwn.com~ because this plan is also a little concerned about him. Over the past few years, many outstanding graduates from Hogwarts and Boothbatten have gone eastward for further studies, which has aroused the attention of governments in Western Europe. After much deliberation, governments around the world have secretly launched their own wizard re-education programs.

As far as Zhang Xu knows, when the British plan was first formulated, relevant government departments quietly visited most of the Muggle-born senior students at Hogwarts during the Christmas holidays last year and this summer, asking them for their opinions and opinions. Suggest.

A few days ago, when Zhang was hiding from Halle's chase, Hermione had secretly asked him her opinion on the matter. At the same time, she wondered why the government knew about her at Hogwarts.

The first question was that Zhang was supported at the time. He always felt that the knowledge learned at Hogwarts alone would not allow Hermione’s ingenuity to be fully utilized. If she could go to university for a systematic education, then It's better.

As for the second question, that list of students is definitely not Zhang's handwriting. He is still a little bit happy to see the digging of the corner of the British magic society.

As for the issue of competing with domestic universities for talent, worrying is useless. The domestic instruction is to sell personal affection to the British government, and the quality of magic teaching in domestic universities is definitely better than that of the start-up British universities. In addition, the first batch of international students are ready to graduate and return to the UK. Under their propaganda, they will have a huge competitive advantage.

After a while, Owen and his son were relieved when they learned of the British government's movement from Mrs. Owen.
