Chapter 1411 Hypocritical person
“My bounty actually exceeds Harry Potter’s again.”
While flipping through the latest issue of the Daily Prophet, Albert stared at the bounty list on the front page news for a long time, and joked, "One hundred and fifty thousand galleons, I didn't know I had become so valuable, it hurt me. I can’t help but want to claim my bounty.”
As he spoke, he turned his head and said to the people around him, "Do you think they would give me the reward if I showed up to the door myself?"
Similar words have been said by Albert more than once.
There is nothing we can do about it again today, because the association has been severely short of money recently.
"If we could catch ourselves to collect the reward, we would have done it ourselves." Fred and George also had rewards hanging on their heads, but they were not as exaggerated as Albert.
"If the bounty is small, it is still possible to get the bounty. People like Albert are just hanging out for people to see. Even if you really catch Albert to collect the bounty, the Ministry of Magic will find various reasons. If you are perfunctory, it wouldn’t be surprising even if I have to go through the procedures and delay you for several years.”
Cedric, who has worked in the Ministry of Magic, is very aware of how ugly the Ministry of Magic is, let alone a Ministry of Magic controlled by Death Eaters.
If there is a bounty for you, it is better for them to divide it among themselves.
“I remember we have a more professional person to consult.” Lee Jordan suddenly reminded.
Everyone knew he meant Percy.
“That **** may not be reliable.”
Fred and George still don't like Percy very much, because they all know what he is.
“I guess it’s difficult, but you can try it.” Albert actually nodded in agreement.
“Are you really going to do that?”
Everyone looked at Albert in shock, incredulous at his decision.
"Who makes us poor? It would be good to let the Death Eaters pay to help us maintain the normal operation of the Defense Association. At least everyone's life can become easier."
Albert never expected to get many galleons from the Ministry of Magic. He just wanted to find something for everyone to do so that they would not be idle and always want to cause trouble.
When it comes to doing things, not only are everyone highly motivated, but their efficiency has also been significantly improved.
Fred and George even pinched their noses and took the initiative to go to Percy and inquire about the feasibility of collecting their bounties from the Ministry of Magic.
"It's difficult. People from the Ministry of Magic are not idiots. They will definitely try to find out who the person who was arrested is. And...now the Ministry of Magic..., I guess they are very happy to...take the credit of others."
Percy's face didn't look good when he talked about the dirty information about the Ministry of Magic. He knew very well what the Ministry of Magic looked like now.
However, both Fred and George felt that this was not a problem. If they really wanted to exchange bounties by impersonating themselves, there would definitely be ways to solve these problems.
Using the Imperius Curse to control those guys can easily solve many problems, and there is no need to worry about the reproach of conscience. It can also send dark wizards to Azkaban Prison, even if those extremely vicious dark wizards are eventually killed by themselves. If people are killed, that is because the Death Eaters are doing harm to the people, which is a great good thing.
After Fred and George returned with the information they obtained from Percy, they discussed the matter with everyone. After Albert's supplement, they found that the method they proposed was good.
As for the problem of dead people that occurred during this period.
In fact, it's just like that. I don't know how many people have died since the Second Wizarding War. What's more, those who died because of this are all **** dark wizards, and those who will take action will only be those who have been cursed by the Imperius Curse. The controlling dark wizard is really dog eat dog, and it has nothing to do with them. There is no need to feel much guilt at all, and no one may even care.
After all, they were just trying to make some extra money to maintain the normal operation of the association while fighting against dark wizards.
The discussion between the twins and Percy was not hidden from other members of the Order of the Phoenix, or it was Percy who leaked the news to his family.
“This is just a bold idea!”
Facing the stern looks from Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Fred and George denied it. After all, they had not yet had time to take action.
"We can't keep spending money to subsidize the normal operation of the association. Moreover, I think that throwing those werewolves who like to bite people and the dark wizards who like to kill into Azkaban Prison is the most correct thing to do, even if they are magicked on the way. If someone from the Ministry is killed, then they deserve to die. It is good for both wizards and Muggles, otherwise Azkaban will be needed."
Fred and George actually guessed what their parents were thinking, so they went directly past them to find Sirius. Then the entire Order of the Phoenix knew about it, and even called an impromptu meeting for this purpose.
Fred and George's whims were soon brought up at the impromptu meeting.
Everyone looked at each other. Although they were a little disgusted with doing this kind of thing, it was not all bad. After all, most dark wizards did enjoy killing people. It would not be a pity for such a guy to die, and what Fred and George did was just trash. It's just a use. There aren't many good people in the Ministry of Magic anyway. Making their moral bottom line more flexible will undoubtedly help them defeat the mysterious man.
Of course, the main reason why this matter was brought up at the meeting is that the Order of the Phoenix has no money, and is even poorer than the Defense Association. At least Albert in the Defense Association can bring them funds, and the Order of the Phoenix But it's quite difficult. They don't have any funds for activities, so they can only subsidize it with their own money, and there are not many rich people in the entire Order of the Phoenix.
You can't keep asking Sirius to subsidize it. The Black family's inheritance isn't much!
At the beginning, Mundungus did not stay with them at the Order of the Phoenix headquarters. In fact, it was not only because the people in the Order didn't like him very much, but also because he didn't want to spend money to support the Order.
Especially after Dumbledore's death, he didn't have much sense of belonging to the Order of the Phoenix.
This plan has not been approved within the Order of the Phoenix. The main reason is that everyone wants to be ashamed. Even if they really want to do it, they will not discuss it openly and will only discuss it privately. Sirius expressed to Fred and George after the meeting It's not hard to see this when you're willing to help out and be the first to be taken out.
Sirius's bounty is one thousand, which is not much, but not much. If we can get the bounty, everyone can live a relatively comfortable life in the past few months.
“I thought Percy was hypocritical enough, but I didn’t expect there were many hypocritical guys in the Order of the Phoenix!” After listening to Fred and George talking about their discussions with the Order of the Phoenix, Lee Jordan couldn’t help complaining.
Those guys obviously wanted to do that, and they even agreed to adopt their method, and even pretended to do so, which made Lee Jordan particularly despise them.
“Some things can only be done in private and cannot be brought to the table or let others know.” Albert was not surprised at all.
“This matter will be left to the three of you for the time being, Cedric, and you will leave the others to train. They are still a little behind.”
"I think it's best if you teach them yourself." Cedric didn't want to be a coach. It was a hard job.
“The basic knowledge is just that. Even if I teach them before they learn it, it’s the same.” Albert didn’t mean to be lazy, that’s exactly what happened.
