Connor's Hogwarts
Page 168
"Oh? International Federation of Wizards? Is our family already this powerful?"
Connor was a little surprised. The International Federation of Wizards is like the United Nations of the wizarding world. Dumbledore was the British representative of the Federation a few years ago, but later he became the president. Generally speaking, all wizards who can enter the Federation It represents that it has great influence in itself.
"Well, our family is already the most famous family in Britain." Grandfather smiled very proudly. "The orders for surveillance mirrors have been fully placed by the Ministry of Magic in various countries, and the Facebook sales market has also opened up to Sweden and Romania. Our Monster cards cover the entire Europa, and our cards can be seen everywhere in Africa and America.”
"But wouldn't this be too ostentatious?" Connor didn't smile. He frowned slightly. In fact, he didn't know much about the family's operations in the wizarding world in the past few years, but he vaguely felt that it was not very good. His family was It's not too sharp
"Hehe, you don't have to worry about this. Now the cake made up of your gadgets is too big. It is no longer something our Lake family can swallow alone. We have been cooperating with other families a long time ago. You It may not be clear to me that I have been in school all the time, but in fact, the famous families in the whole of England are basically tied to our family’s chariot.”
Old Divin smiled like an old fox, "Our backing is the major magic families in the whole of Britain, the British Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore, especially those old antique families, they have all tasted the sweetness of Jin Gallon, our British magic world But because your small card opened up this closed situation."
"Oh? Is it so I'm so good haha...haha" Connor scratched his head with a dry smile. He really didn't know these things well. The newspapers praised him every day, so he couldn't understand it.
Moreover, his main energy is devoted to the study of magic and cards. In terms of business, he pays more attention to the Muggle companies. As for the extent of the family business, he really has no idea.
"Of course, you have to know that our British wizarding world used to be very closed. We stayed in a corner and ignored what happened outside. Most of our families were also satisfied with the status quo. Thinking about it now, we are really petty."
Something called ambition seemed to appear in Old Diwen's eyes, "The market of our British wizarding world is too small, no, the European market is not enough. Only by going out, out of Europa, across the ocean, can we develop, and …the feeling of being able to take Galleon out of those goblin pockets is so addictive.”
Connor looked at Old Diwen with weird eyes. Connor has been studying with Old Diwen for so many years, and he is naturally very familiar with his grandfather. He was just an old artist who had no desires and was a bit stubborn. But when did this old man become so rich
aggressive?
Connor shook his head, this is not a bad thing, people always have ambitions and pursuits, understandable and understandable
"That's not very good. After my new card comes out, it is estimated that it can completely open up the Egyptian market. I will release a free-spirited copy in the future, which may help you open up the American market. Anyway... I will sit in the back and collect it." Just the money, hahaha."
"Hehe, you, Connor, account for most of the credit for this..." Grandfather took a sip of tea, "Connor, our family is becoming stronger and stronger day by day. It can be said that it is all due to your little invention. I can understand clearly. I feel that these little things are proving to slowly change the lives of wizards..."
Hearing his grandfather keep praising him, Connor was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect that the little toy he made to play with was so powerful...
After boasting for a long time, the grandfather glanced at Connor secretly, and a look of unnaturalness floated across his face. He looked around and said, "Connor, I heard that you have a good relationship with Alice from the Windsor family?"
"Huh!?" Connor didn't expect to hear this name when he returned home, he shivered suddenly, and stammered, "Is it okay, what's wrong?"
Who knew that upon seeing Connor's reaction, old Diwen's eyes suddenly lit up. This was the first time he saw such a complex expression on his grandson's face. Could it be said that this is feasible?
"Oh, it's nothing, just a silly question...By the way, Connor, I heard that the Alice card you drew before was for little Alice. Is this true?"
Connor felt that something was wrong, he hesitated for a long time, and finally bit the bullet and nodded, "That's true, but that's because I agreed to it at the beginning."
The grandfather showed a relieved smile, and he patted Connor's shoulder in relief, "I understand, so I can rest assured that I have already made arrangements for the new branch in Hogsmeade. You don't need to worry about..."
Seeing his grandfather talking about business on his own, Connor's mentality was not as stable as it was at the beginning...
? ? ?Wait, please speak clearly!What did you understand?Why can't I understand! ?Let's go back to the previous topic, shall we? ! !

Chapter 165 Connor's fiancee?
Marriage is the most commonly used and most effective diplomatic method at all times and in all over the world, and can protect and expand one's own interests to the greatest extent.
Engels once said, "For knights or barons, and for princes themselves, marriage is a political act, an opportunity to expand their power through new marriages, and the decisive factor is family interests, not personal wishes."
It can be seen that this kind of power behavior that does not respect human rights is feudal dross that should be cast aside. In his previous life, Connor often gathered with his classmates to criticize this evil dross thought with tears in his eyes.
But what Connor never expected was that such a thing would happen to him one day
------
Christmas Eve is Connor's birthday.
Connor has a birthday party tonight, and he sent invitations to his friends from the Assassin Brotherhood, as well as some familiar friends, such as the Quidditch friends. This should have been a happy night, But Connor wasn't happy...
Connor was sitting on the window sill of the room with absent-minded eyes, staring at the pale sky in a daze, when suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him...
"Connor? What are you doing here?"
Connor turned around, "Oh, Blanche, you're here, I'm fine, I'll just stay here for a while."
Blanche was still wearing her dark blue Headington School uniform, which had obviously been off for several days
Connor jumped back into the room, closed the window, and said with a chuckle, "Blanche, don't you want to change into another outfit? Although tonight's party is not a costume party, it's always good to dress up nicely, I I can also introduce you to a few outstanding boys, haha."
Blanche looked down at the decent school uniform, then raised her head again with a blank expression, "The school uniform is pretty."
"Well, as long as you like it, why are you here alone? Where are Aunt Elena and Uncle Charles?" Connor shrugged, not paying attention.
"Mom and Dad are down there, help." Blanche tilted her head, "What was Connor thinking just now? He didn't look happy."
"Ha nothing"
"Can't you tell Blanche?"
""
Connor sighed and sat on the bed and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that my grandfather wanted to get me a marriage contract... just... found me a fiancee, this thing has been worrying about it lately..."
Blanche's body trembled slightly, then she slowly sat down next to Connor without showing any signs of expression, and asked softly, "Why didn't Blanche hear my mother talk about this?"
"Because this is still a verbal agreement between my grandfather and others for the time being. I didn't agree, so my grandfather didn't directly agree to the other party."
That's right, Connor really didn't expect such an unmagical thing to happen to him. After repeated questioning by Connor before, his grandfather told him the truth - the Windsor family intends to marry the Lake family.
It is the Windsor family of Alice's family.
The relationship between this Windsor family and the British Windsor royal family is a bit complicated.
In fact, the history of the Windsor family in the wizarding world can be traced back to the era of William I the Conqueror. The Windsor family was the "illegitimate son William" of the year - the largest wizarding family supported by the Duke of Normandy (the wizarding family that supported William I and Malfoy family).
The famous Windsor Castle is one of the properties of the Windsor family. The Windsor family is the wizarding family that has been controlling England behind the scenes since the Normandy Dynasty (since 1066).
As the most powerful, wealthy and powerful wizarding family in England (no one), the Windsor family has always served as a bridge between the British wizarding world and the Muggle world.
The Windsor family has maintained a marriage relationship with the royal family of every generation of the British dynasty (they have never been pure blood), so the current British royal family is actually a relative of the Windsor family.
It can be said that my grandfather has developed so fast in the past few years, and there must be many friends and transactions with the Windsor family. Therefore, when old Diwen learned that the other party intends to marry, it was not too much of a surprise, but this kind of thing always It still depends on what my grandson means, it is impossible for old Diwen to force Connor
Blanche blinked when she heard Connor say that he refused, and she asked with feigned curiosity, "Connor doesn't like the girl who is going to be your fiancée?"
Then Connor thought of Alice, and he suddenly had a headache, Connor said while holding his forehead
"It's not a question of whether you like it or not. In fact, I know her very well. How should I say it? Now we are still too young, so it's too early to talk about marriage."
"You don't like the other party." Blanche stated affirmatively.
