Connor's Hogwarts
Page 539
In particular, these master nobles who hold most of the resources of the society are actively pursuing the mystery. For example, the old Duke Hugh, who once spent a lot of resources to understand the group of wizards, trying to contact wizards, and Knowing that fifty hands hold the secret of immortality...
It's a pity that no wizard will talk to Muggles, not to mention the mandatory restrictions of the Secrecy Act, most wizards are not interested in Muggles.
There is need for communication between the two ethnic groups. Muggles may have a desire for the mysterious power of wizards, but wizards have no need for Muggles.
In addition to changing some Muggle currency to buy some rare things, or going to the market to purchase some food and vegetables from all over the world, wizards can meet almost all their needs, and there is no need or want to communicate with Muggles.
So the old duke spent more than ten years but failed to find out much information about the group of wizards, and no wizards were willing to communicate with him in depth. Come to the door, so in fact, Duke Hugh is very excited today. For an elderly nobleman like him who has tasted all the good things in the world, the mysterious magical world is absolutely attractive.
After the two parties greeted each other, they sat down in the living room, and the old duke asked, "Lake... I don't know what is the relationship between the Lake company, which is very famous in London recently, and Mr. Connor?"
"That's our family's company, and the boss, Charles, is my second uncle."
The old duke nodded, exchanged glances with the little duke, and stopped talking.
Connor didn't intend to be polite with them, and soon got to the point.
"You two dukes, I think you also know that we are here to discuss a business today."
The old prince took over the conversation: "I would like to hear more about it."
Connor glanced at the young, middle-aged and old trio sitting opposite, and said seriously: "But before we start, we must sign a contract to ensure that our conversation today will not be leaked. This is also for the sake of safety. can understand."
The few people looked at each other in twos, had no opinion on this, and quickly nodded, and then they saw that Connor took out a kind of parchment from nowhere, and that piece of paper flew over in violation of the laws of physics. Seeing this, they were finally convinced that today's meeting was unusual.
The Duke and the prince looked at the parchment, and there were only a few simple sentences on it, which roughly meant "What happened today must not be disclosed to outsiders in any form." There was no problem, and the three signed their names one after another.
Then Connor handed the parchment to Alice beside him.
"Huh? Do I want to sign too?"
Connor rolled his eyes: "Of course, Penello will also sign. It's a serious matter. Do you think you're here to play?"
Alice smiled sheepishly and signed.
Connor took back the contract from Penello, and signed the payment with the "witness". He himself is not restricted by the contract, and the parchment has no fire, and the contract is established.
The three "Muggles" looked at this scene with novelty on their faces. This kind of mysterious and unnatural phenomenon happened in front of them, which was an unprecedented experience for them.
"Okay, let's not talk nonsense, let's get back to business," Connor straightened his sitting posture, and said, "First of all, before I propose this deal, you must know that the business we are going to discuss today violates the laws of our wizarding world .”
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
"???"
The three of them almost spit out the tea in their mouths. After signing the contract, you told me that we were doing something illegal?
Connor naturally saw the surprise in their eyes, and said unhurriedly: "Of course, it is our wizard's law that is violated. The wizard's law is naturally invalid for you, and you don't have to worry about going to jail."
"..." The two girls around cast strange glances... Connor pretended not to notice.
"As for the reason...it's very simple. The wizarding world cannot be exposed. I was warned by the Ministry of Magic when I used the potion formula to start a company. If it weren't for the fact that those potions didn't contain magic power, the company I started would have been banned. Stopped..."
Connor shrugged. He was interviewed by the Ministry of Magic when the skin care products developed by the Weasley brothers were released in the Muggle world.
"Mr. Connor means, do you want to come up with something unique to the wizarding world to negotiate business with us?" The old duke kept his face calm, but his heart was already alive, and he planned to stick to it no matter what plan the other party came up with. Seize this opportunity firmly, and you must not miss the business that can be connected with the wizarding world.
"Of course uniqueness is uniqueness, but the premise is still [the wizarding world cannot be exposed]..." Connor smiled slightly: "You can guess what I plan to come up with to cooperate with you."
The three of them looked at each other, and finally the old duke coughed and took over the conversation: "Since the Windsor family invited me and the Duke of Devonshire here... the common property of our two families is real estate and weapons, can it be that Connor Do you want to sell us wizarding weapons?"
Connor waved his hand, but didn't show off again: "Haha, I don't want to be a joke anymore. What I want to trade is [energy]."
"energy?"
"The two dukes have power companies under their names. I want to cooperate with you to build a new power plant. This is my purpose today."
Before they came back to their senses, Connor took out a bright red stone. He let go of his hand, and the red stone flew slowly, hovering among the few people, and spinning slowly.
"This is the Philosopher's Stone. You should have heard its legend. This is the Philosopher's Stone that you say can turn stones into gold and make people immortal. Now we can mass-produce this thing."
After Connor finished speaking calmly, the three Muggle gentlemen on the opposite side were really shocked. The old duke was even more stunned when he heard "immortality", and his whole body trembled:
"Mr. Connor, are you kidding? This... really makes people immortal?!"
Old Duke Hugh never expected that the "miracle" he had been pursuing for many years would appear in front of his eyes so easily. For an old man over seventy, nothing could be more meaningful than the word "immortality". allure.
Connor drank tea tactically, and said unhurriedly: "Of course, the production of the elixir of life is not difficult, but..."
Connor didn't look at the tense and agitated dukes on the opposite side, his eyes were lowered:
"...That naturally cannot be produced for you."
"?! Why! As long as you are willing to sell me the elixir of life, I am willing to pay no matter what the price is, even if it is exchanged with all my wealth!" The old duke clenched his cane excitedly, his tone hurried.
"Why? Naturally, it's because [the wizarding world cannot be exposed]." Connor's tone was still calm, and he had already taken the initiative to speak.
"And even if we can sell the elixir of life to you, you probably won't be able to use it now, because most of the potions need to have magic power in the body to work, which means that under normal circumstances, only wizards can use this kind of potion. "
"..."
Hearing this, the Muggles always calmed down, but everyone noticed what Connor said, he just said "now" can't do it, doesn't mean it won't work in the future...
The old duke also calmed down, and he also saw that the young man on the other side wanted to control the rhythm of the negotiation. Although he was originally here to "ask for others" and didn't plan to play any tricks, he still followed the pace of the other party. All right.
"Okay, Mr. Connor, let's not mention the elixir of life for now, since you have taken out this... Sorcerer's Stone, does it mean that this Sorcerer's Stone is related to the power plant?"
Little Duke Richard's eyes were full of curiosity, and he was full of exploration in his youth.
"Yes, this Philosopher's Stone contains almost endless magic power, and magic power is also a kind of energy. In other words, this Philosopher's Stone is actually [endless energy]. Just use tools to convert this magic energy into the electricity you need ..."
Connor's eyes swept across the faces of the three people who looked shocked:
"...That represents a steady stream of electricity. The most important thing is that this endless energy is at zero cost to you..."
The Duke and Duke looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
There is no need to calculate at all, anyone with a discerning eye can see how terrifying the profit represented here is, and they didn't pay attention to this business until then.
"I'm responsible for providing you with the Sorcerer's Stone and the supporting magic power generators, investing in technology, and building an electric power company with the three of you. I won't interfere with the construction and sales of the factory in the future. As for the profits... I don't really need you Muggles. The money, so it doesn’t matter if you give it or not, the content of the cooperation is roughly like this, do you think there is any problem?”
As soon as Connor finished speaking, the conference hall fell silent, no one spoke immediately, and several people were digesting this message.
It is impossible for the three nobles to remain unmoved. No one will let go of the business of picking up money for nothing, but...
"I definitely won't miss such a profitable business, but...Since Mr. Connor doesn't care about profits, what do you want?"
