A day at Hogwarts.

Chapter 545 Easter Plan

On Easter Day, the door of the Dancing Grass Restaurant was crowded with wizards, and Scrimgeour had to grab the Aurors who were on holiday to work overtime to maintain order.

Seeing this, a certain Metamorphmagus Auror immediately changed his appearance, squeezed into the restaurant through the crowd, lined up behind Molly, bought a delicious tablecloth, and was given an Easter egg as a gift.

Fudge was laughing happily on the side, and the pressure caused by the food price issue would be much less in the future.

In the tower of Farbatten Castle, Charles sat in an oak rocking chair, rocking back and forth, staring at the dim sky in a daze.

Originally, the Delacour family invited him to celebrate the festival today, but he had other things to do, so he politely declined.

The development of things is continuous. Today, delicious tablecloths are selling so well and the wizard market is so big, it is bound to cause a series of chain reactions.

Laziness is part of human nature, and wizards are no exception. Once you get used to convenient, fast, and cost-effective takeout, it becomes difficult to go back.

There are many similar examples.

For example, Floo powder is used by many wizards for its convenience and speed, and has largely replaced other means of transportation such as broomsticks.

The most recent one is the communication notebook. Nowadays, owls are used less and less to deliver letters. Most of them are used to deliver official documents and items. The number of traditional letters has been reduced to a trickle.

And bakeries and buying ready-made bread are also a European tradition.

It can be expected that, in this context, the takeaway food from the Dancing Grass Restaurant will have a subversive impact on the dietary pattern of British wizards and change their lifestyle.

Furthermore, the catering structure has a corresponding economic foundation, and changes in the structure mean taking advantage of other people's cake.

The Dancing Grass Restaurant has little connection with the British wizarding community in terms of purchasing. The majority of its ordinary ingredients come from the Muggle market. At least in the near future, takeout will mainly consist of ordinary meals, and sales in the wizarding food market are bound to plummet.

This hatred is great.

Touching someone's money is like killing their parents.

The old man killed a group of goblins' parents a hundred years ago, and now Charles is going to kill another group from another perspective.

Charles didn't think the goblins would sit there and wait for death. They would definitely take action, and drastic action at that.

The action may not be limited to the Dancing Grass Restaurant, and it is very likely that Farbatten Castle is also within the scope.

In order to prepare for a rainy day, Charles must prepare countermeasures in advance to avoid being caught off guard.

There are several ways to deal with this, and he is considering which one to use.

It was getting dark and dinner time was approaching. The sales boom of the delicious tablecloths had stopped and the Dancing Grass Restaurant had started serving dinner. Dobby soon came to report with sales statistics.

Charles just nodded after listening, and then asked: "Has the restaurant's fire protection system and escape system been tested recently?"

He has always been very concerned about these two things. Dobby immediately replied: "Don't worry, boss. We test it every month to make sure there are no problems."

Charles nodded and said, "I will only tell you what to do next. Please assign your most trusted and capable employee to do it."

Dobby immediately turned serious.

Charles continued, "You quietly install a surveillance system around the restaurant. Don't let anyone know or find out. Record everything around the restaurant and on the roof."

"The restaurant may be attacked in the next period of time. If it is a goblin, ensuring everyone's safety is the first priority. Otherwise, don't worry about how they destroy it."

Dobby's eyes suddenly widened so wide that his sunglasses could no longer cover them. He asked in panic, "Boss, are the goblins going to rebel again?"

Charles said: "Just be prepared and don't reveal too much about this matter to the outside world."

This was the first time Dobby hesitated at his boss's order. Running the Dancing Grass Restaurant was his proudest achievement and he had put in a lot of effort for it. Now he felt bad about letting others destroy it.

Charles saw what he was thinking and said solemnly, "Don't worry, the core of Dancing Grass Restaurant is you, not this house and the tables and chairs inside."

"Wherever you go, the Dancing Grass Restaurant will be there. If someone else takes over the management of the house, it will no longer be the Dancing Grass Restaurant."

"You know this, and I know it even better." "Don't worry, it will only take a while to rebuild the house. As long as you are safe, the restaurant will be able to reopen soon."

Dobby was a little touched, nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, boss, I know what to do."

Charles trusted him to do his job, didn't ask too many questions, and got things done within the overall framework.

Dobby guessed what the boss meant and started making arrangements without asking any questions.

The next day, Charles summoned the leaders of Farbaton Castle and made the same arrangement after analyzing the situation.

Everyone was shocked.

Kitov said, "Boss, do you want me to contact some bodyguards to make sure no enemy can break into the castle?"

Farbottom Castle has a deep cooperation with Kodostorez. It is not a problem to find some powerful bodyguards through Kodostorez. Maybe we can even take over the British Ministry of Magic.

Louis Manz shook his head and said, "I don't think so. The boss wants to go fishing."

Kitov understood immediately, his eyes rolled, and he said, "If the enemy is a goblin, do you want me to go to Siberia to find some goblins? Few people can tell goblins apart anyway."

Mos Jeff slapped his thigh and said, "That's great. If they're not professional enough, I can find someone to teach them."

Penelope asked curiously, "What does your friend do for a living?"

"He was constantly traveling between U.S. embassies in foreign countries and was basically an expert at causing trouble," Moss Jeff said.

Louis Manz pinched his chin and said, "I have a friend in France. His ancestor was a wizard noble who followed Joan of Arc to attack London and relieve Constantinople. His family has a collection of many goblin weapons and trophies collected in England. I can borrow them for use."

Fairy products have regional characteristics. If the fairies invited by Kitov use their weapons, they will probably be exposed. But if they use this batch of weapons, it will be different.

Axe Prewitt asked curiously, "The goblins regard their works as their own. Didn't the goblins ask your friends to return them?"

Although he was a Squib and left the wizarding society early, he still knew some things about goblins.

Louis Manz said as a matter of course: "That was the work of the English goblins. They are being used as trophies in France. What do you think the French goblins will do?"

"There were fairies working for Jeanne d'Arc back then."

Charles and Axe Prewett were speechless.

Axe Prewitt thought for a while and said, "The boss will definitely ask for compensation in the future, so I will have to conduct a new assessment of the company's assets."

"For example, a coffee cup is 256 galleons."

Charles nodded. 1280 pounds for a coffee cup was more in line with his status.

At this time, Chris Hemsworth said: "Everyone, please pay attention. Our research data must be kept safe. It would be terrible if the data in the basement was destroyed."

Everyone else has come here anyway. If something goes wrong and the data is destroyed, no one will be able to cry.

Charles said: "This issue really needs attention, and it is a good opportunity to upgrade the data backup system."

"The backup in the castle basement is not enough. I think we need to build three more synchronous backup centers. Center one can be in Iceland, center two in Greenland, and center three on the bottom of the Arctic Ocean."

“Center No. 1 is backed up once a day, and the data from Center No. 1 is backed up to Centers No. 2 and No. 3 every month.”

After some discussion, everyone felt that this method was feasible.

After the meeting, Charles left an undercover Death Eater behind and muttered to himself.

A Death Eater was shocked, feeling that he was the real Death Eater.
