Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God

"Romania?"

Clark glanced at Malfoy.

"Their method is to enclose a large area of ​​land for the giant dragon to hunt and live, and at the same time, through magic, establish a large meat supply company to reduce the cost of feeding.

But the big country they were close to the north had its own special national conditions. The relationship between wizards and Muggles is not as severe as ours, and the International Wizarding Secrecy Act does not control them, so this method is not suitable for those in the UK who only 1. A small dragon farm with two dragons. "

Hearing this, Hagrid was in a hurry. Although he didn't know how to calculate the cost, recently Norbert was actually eating what he had and using what he had. If this continued, his hard-earned unicorn blanket , I'm afraid they all have to be pawned.

But Clark went on to talk about the projects that dragon farms can use for profit:

"Just like people, as long as the food supply is guaranteed, a giant dragon can draw blood every once in a while, which is considered a long-term benefit of the dragon farm. In addition, the 'Adopt a Dragon' activity that Malfoy and his family participated in, Fees for visits, and the occasional collection of dragon dung and scales, can earn Galleons.

Of course, the big head is still the income after slaying the dragon. The dragon farms in Romania have their own experience. When the input is about to exceed the output, those giant dragons will be slaughtered, and the alchemy materials that contain a lot of magic power will be sold on them to maximize their profits. "

"This is really cruel!" Malfoy said a rare kind word, "Then will the dragon I adopted be killed too?"

Clark didn't answer, but that was the default.

"We can't do that, they're not cattle and sheep raised by humans." Hagrid's heart broke again, and he always had a soft spot for these fierce big guys.

Hermione rolled her cute eyes when she heard what he said. She was still young and hadn't been influenced by the fanatical animal protectors in the Muggle world.

Hermione didn't feel anything about these magical creatures being raised and slaughtered far away from her, just like you wouldn't pity the pigs in the slaughterhouse if you eat pork, she would be extraordinarily calm.

"Hagrid, you have to know, those guys are not ordinary cattle and sheep. They are giant dragons that can eat people. If wizards don't keep them in captivity, then Muggles will be in danger."

"And," she seemed to be recalling something, organizing her words, "I remember reading a point of view in a Muggle magazine, saying that proper slaughter actually helps protect those animals. "

"Think about it, if the wizards forbid the hunting of giant dragons, then under the lure of high profits, some people will still take risks and secretly hunt and kill giant dragons, and even the methods will be even more cruel, and no one will protect those giant dragons. , because they are public properties that do not belong to anyone.

On the contrary, after opening up breeding and legal hunting, the owners of those dragon farms will protect those giant dragons more carefully. After all, they are all their private property. Private property is sacred and inviolable. Anyone who dares to poach, It is bound to be retaliated by the dragon raising family. "

"This……"

Hermione's remarks successfully drew Hagrid and the three of them in, and Clark nodded, adding the information he knew.

"That's right, at the Wizarding Conference in 1709, the Wizarding Union formally passed a bill banning dragon breeding.

They thought that the promulgation of this bill would protect the dragons, but after the promulgation of the bill, the number of wild dragons dropped rapidly. Because they couldn't raise dragons, those wizards who encountered dragons killed them instead. "

Clark's words put a layer of morality on the behavior of raising dragons, but Malfoy doesn't care about these, he is not Hagrid and Harry, for him, raising dragons is purely for fun, he doesn't care about it. If you care about the feelings of the dragon, you want to own a dragon.

"So, what you said is all nonsense. I just want to know, how should we run this dragon farm? How to raise this dragon? You just need to tell us what to do!"

Malfoy's words were simple and direct.

For today's small meeting, Clark actually collected a lot of information.

However, seeing the bewildered faces of Harry, Hagrid, and Malfoy, and their attitudes that only want the result and are not interested in the content behind it, Clark suddenly lost interest and didn't want to talk about it. .

Maybe smart people are always lonely, no wonder Thanos would say that he is a person cursed by knowledge.

"The matter of the dragon farm is actually the best solution, and it can be done in Hogwarts," Clark gave the answer directly, no longer keeping secrets.

"First, the area of ​​Hogwarts is large enough to enclose enough space in the Forbidden Forest. Moreover, Hogwarts is surrounded by a large Muggle expulsion barrier, and the entire school is protected from Muggles. It was wiped off the map of Gua, which saved a lot of money."

"Secondly, among Hogwarts graduates there are very good dragon trainers, such as my cousin, Charlie Weasley, who is now working at a dragon farm in Romania."

"Third, the problem of funds." Clark glanced at Malfoy, "Draco's father is the school manager of Hogwarts, and their family is very rich. I think, since he is willing to spend money on a dragon farm in Romania If you adopt a dragon here, you should be very willing to contribute to the Hogwarts dragon farm."

When Malfoy heard this, his mouth was full of bitterness, and he felt that this was really shooting himself in the foot. However, in front of Harry, his deadly enemy, he was too embarrassed to refuse, because it would undoubtedly admit that his family Without money, those previous showings were all bragging.

So he could only nod his head in embarrassment, secretly estimating how much Galleon he could get from his father by virtue of his status as a son.

Fortunately, seeing Malfoy's discolored expression, Clark added a sentence.

"Of course, the Malfoy family alone is definitely not enough, but Hogwarts has enough trustees, and if they don't mind adding a seat on the board, our Prewett family is also willing to donate a sum of money, Help Hogwarts build this dragon farm."

"As for the third point, the production and sales of giant dragon materials, this is actually not a problem. Because we only have one giant dragon, and it is more used for teaching and research by students, and will not carry out various It is a profitable project. The entire dragon farm’s expenditure depends more on social donations and subsidies from the Ministry of Magic. At the same time, this should also reduce the hostility of those dragon-raising families in Eastern Europe.”

Clark's three solutions make sense and are all practical.

At least to Harry and the others, Hogwarts and the matter of running a dragon farm seem to be a match made in heaven. If Hogwarts doesn't raise dragons, it would be reckless and a waste of its excellent resources.
