Chapter 517: A Merchant with a Sensitive Sense of Smell

Barnabas Guffey is the editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet and is known as the most well-informed person in the entire British wizarding world.

Although he has always denied this matter and said that the Daily Prophet is just a fair and impartial news reporting organization, his relationship with the Minister of Magic has always been good, no matter who it is.

However, he is already quite old, so he will not pay attention to non-urgent front-line news. He prefers to leave the news handling rights to reporters and then wait for their news.

Although this will lead to a lot of distorted reporting, who cares?
If all else fails, just give up on the reporters - the newspaper gave them columns, but they just made up fake news in private, which is really hateful. The Daily Prophet will reserve the right to sue them.

However, the last trick has not been used yet. But reporters with autonomy are indeed working harder. For example, Miss Rita is a good hyena.

Although the other party was a madman for attacking Dumbledore crazily, he did not fight back, which made it possible for Rita to eat the black man's meal.

'It's a pity that the guy was overshadowed by a legend. The audience seemed to prefer a powerful and genius Dumbledore. The key is that the photo was well chosen... After seeing too much of the dark history, I want to see those adventures... The audience is really hard to figure out...'

If the other party had not performed outstandingly in other aspects and worked harder in fabricating intelligence, he would not have been willing to give Rita a column again - after a legend, Rita's things didn't sell well, which was clearly reflected in the sales volume.

But just as he was thinking about what to do next, the sound of an owl's beak hitting the glass woke him up.

"What important news?"

Barnabas stepped in quickly and stuffed a bag of Galleons into the owl, and the owl then handed the news to him - the leg that looked a little distorted was revealed in front of him, with the expensive information on it.

[A new negotiation has been held at Hogwarts, go quickly. ]

???

'What negotiations? What happened at Hogwarts?'

With such doubts, he didn't think twice and sent an owl to Hogwarts to ask for the right to visit.

But soon the owl came back with bad news.

Hogwarts was on high alert because of the upcoming Triwizard Tournament, and his letter had not been delivered at all.

'Ask the Ministry of Magic... I hope it's in time...'

...

On the other side, Andrew was trying hard to perform brain occlumency.

Because the dean is trying to build a second astronomy tower.

No kidding - the Dean contacted the magazine of "Magic Legends" and got Professor McGonagall's approval!
"Yes, we have heard the news too. It is indeed an amazing technology. I fully agree with the dreamization of a legend. Moreover, we have abundant funds."

The editor-in-chief of Magic Legend had a proud look on his face, which made Andrew extremely worried that a rope would be used to catch all of them.

"You are indeed very capable. I received a large sum of Galleons before receiving your letter, and I haven't even sold the adaptation rights yet..."

But the problem lies in this pile of Galleons!
The more Galleons you have, the longer the Astronomy Tower will be upside down!
But he couldn't say anything. He could only watch silently as his dean and the editor-in-chief, with whom he had communicated in the letter, were committing suicide together.

"Exclusive authorization is impossible, but your idea of ​​subscribing to dreams is indeed very interesting. However, the cost is not affordable at the moment, and the school is more inclined to establish a dream broadcasting model to broadcast the next three-strong competition live."

Professor Flitwick was sitting there, saying some very cruel words, but suddenly something came up that Andrew had not expected. Live broadcast of the Triwizard Tournament?

Something totally unexpected - but if this thing can be involved, it will definitely cause a heat explosion.

The Triwizard Tournament has been hyped up for so long that the entire wizarding world has tried to watch it, but unfortunately, due to security issues at Hogwarts, outsiders are not allowed to enter at will.

Whether it is live or recorded, people in the wizarding world will definitely not want to miss this feast...

"We don't plan to get involved in this, but I want to get the authorization for the dream-like version of a legend as soon as possible."

"Of course, we are looking forward to it." Professor Flitwick no longer looked like he was buying the license anonymously. "But as for the price..."

???

Wait?

Andrew, who had just thrown the information away and left it alone, was stunned - no, wait, what's the logic?

The Warriors roster hasn’t been released yet!
No, to be precise, that paper hasn’t been published yet!

Come to think of it, this thing didn't appear in the special issue this time - he previously thought it was a problem of insufficient influence, but now it seems that it was a problem of suppressing the ability to get Garlon!

"But Magic Legend gave money... the dean... but don't worry about the dean... the professor may be more demanding about thesis and study, but as for money..."

"So, the approval is different from what I understood before. It was not the dean who contacted him, but the other party who contacted the dean with Garlon in his hand."

"That's right... People in the magic world are just not used to what they are not familiar with. When they turn to the familiar field, they are still so skilled that it's frightening..."

'I'm afraid all kinds of magazines and media will come...'

"If you calculate this way, this isn't just a matter of experiment funding. I'm afraid the Gringotts vault is almost full..."

...

The facts were exactly as he thought - Professor Flitwick was not only communicating with the people from Magic Legends Magazine, but many businessmen with a keen sense of smell came to give him money collectively.

The professor divided the funds for authorizing the use of new magic according to the 4:2:2 method - Andrew, as the leader, got four shares, the two professors each got two shares, and the school got two shares.

As for Professor Sprout's dream grass, although it has not produced any results, it will definitely sell well in the future, and Andrew can get 40% of the licensing fees.

"This amount of money may not be as much as you think, Taylor. Only large groups can purchase it. There is no way to stop wizards from using it privately. You have disclosed too much."

"It's okay, professor. This is a spell created to promote communication among wizards. If it weren't for the cost of research, I would have hoped that it would be more public."

Andrew shook his head. This was the best way for now. If he hadn't used the help of other professors this time, according to his personal wishes, he would have hoped that the magic world would work harder on this. It would be even better with free promotion. Anyway, he was not short of Galleons.

"That's it, then. I have to report this good news to Minerva. I'll go find her first. By the way, I have an idea about the broadcast of the Triwizard Tournament. Perhaps we can rely on dreams again. Taylor, we'll talk about it later."

Professor Flitwick left happily, and Andrew's heart finally calmed down a little, but he now had some strange thoughts about the future. It seemed that, perhaps, probably, this Triwizard Tournament that had not yet started would probably be the most outrageous one?
