Chapter 23
"Teachers, I am very glad that you are all here to participate in this bi-annual round table meeting!"
The round table meeting is not a meeting of the knights of the round table, but the most important collective meeting of teachers every semester in the serious Hogwarts. This meeting is held in the ball hall of the teacher meeting hall.
In this meeting, Dumbledore will account for the events that need to unfold this semester and require the cooperation of these teachers.
Dunledore likes to name events and buildings according to the shape and color of the objects. Inside the ball hall is a semicircular stone brick hall, which does not have any modern architectural features.
European-style stone columns are distributed in the circular building, and the entire building is made of rock and solid wood.
In the very center of the ball hall, apart from a big crimson stall covered with golden patterns, a huge round table is particularly obvious, and the pope's chairs are distributed around the round table as if they don't need money.
The name of the round table meeting comes from this round table, and all other meetings that require the presence of teachers are held in this medieval building.
The round table meeting is not a news broadcast with a serious expression. At least Dunledore, who is sitting in the main position in the center, will yawn and eat a few mouthfuls of apples to moisten his throat.
Like ordinary people, Dumbledore needed enough sleep, but he didn't fall asleep until seven o'clock in the morning when preparing for the welcome banquet last night, and got up early at night to prepare for the main content of the meeting.
"What I want to say is that this enrollment may be our largest enrollment. It will last for about six days. The number of new students is expected to reach 700 to 800, which is more than the number of enrollments in the past two years!"
Sitting at the large round table are all the teachers in the original Harry Potter, namely Minerva McGonagall, Severus Snape, Horace Slughorn, Ruburt Hagrid, Wilmina Graplan, Pomona Sprout, Filius Flitwick, Rolanda Hooch, Gilderoy Lockhart, Apollyon Pringle Wait for the teacher.
At present, Hogwarts only has six courses: Transfiguration, Potions, Herbalism, Charms, Flying Lessons, and Defense Against the Dark Arts. Because there are more and more students, a course may require one or several teachers.
"First of all, a group of students will graduate this semester, and there are three paths for them to choose after graduation.
The first one is that they choose to start their own businesses in the outside world. When they go to the outside world, they must abide by the laws of the outside world, and at the same time abide by the school rules I set. They used magic indiscriminately and caused the loss of innocent people's lives and properties. I will remove their magic for a period of time, or even for life.
Second, my Diagon Alley will become the medium between the outside world and Hogwarts. Our Hogwarts items must pass through the Leaky Cauldron and Diagon Alley hidden behind the Leaky Cauldron, Diagon Alley houses are rented to graduates who can't bear the outside world but can't bear the wizarding world.
Third, I will build a village located in the lake group this semester, named Hogsmeade Village. This village may only have a few buildings at the beginning, and it will be a home for graduates who are willing to stay here!
For graduates who stay here, if they have families, including parents and underage siblings, the door of Hogwarts will be opened for them with restrictions, and their families can also choose to live in Hogwarts.
Residents of Hogsmeade Village can work in the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and can provide services for Hogwarts' food, clothing, housing and transportation. They can also plant their own vegetable gardens, raise poultry, livestock, and grow inferior herbs, which can be sold to Diagon Alley.
And the merchants in Diagon Alley can be sold to merchants opened by outside graduates, forming a return flow that is only beneficial to our students. Except for the graduates of the wizarding world and Diagon Alley who work for me, I will not interfere with how the graduates of the outside world set prices for their products. "
Most of this meeting was just Dunlidore telling and ordering,
They listen and do as they please. Because Dunlidore's power is different from that of ordinary principals, these teachers are strictly the products of Dunlidore's summoning in the system.
The reason why Dunlidore didn't make arbitrary decisions was because he wanted to listen to the opinions of these teachers, remove the chaff and extract the essence. He would inevitably be single-minded and unable to think too comprehensively.
"Principal Dunledore, I hope you will think about the entry of Muggles into the magical world. Since you have established a magical world, people who learn magic and can learn magic should enter. If people without magical blood enter here Let's start a family here, we can't guarantee that Hogsmeade village will be different from the outside world!"
Although these teachers are relatively loyal and have original thoughts and memories, they come from the world of "Harry Potter" after all. In that world, mages and ordinary people are even divided into two poles.
So when they heard that Dunlidore not only wanted to let the graduates of Holzwarg go back to the outside world, but also wanted some Muggle parents to also enter Hotswarg, some teachers put forward other opinions without thinking.
"People with magical bloodlines have a high chance that their parents are people with magical bloodlines, but their magical talents have not been stimulated, and they have always lived like ordinary people.
Seventy to eighty percent of the parents of our students are people of magical blood, which ensures that magical people become the mainstream in our village.
If we only keep the graduates and prevent their parents from entering the magical world, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is equivalent to continuing to separate the two worlds between the graduates and their parents living here. Some graduates are only eighteen years old, and they do not yet have the ability to take care of a family by themselves. In this way, even if they are reluctant to stay here, they may not want to be separated from their families even more. At that time, whether to leave or stay will be a problem. "
It is acceptable to be separated from one's closest parents, brothers, and sisters for a period of time, but if one cannot see one's own parents and relatives often, these graduates will not live comfortably here.
Deng Lido, who was reborn into this world, knew it personally. Even though he traveled here for seven years, he often misses his parents and relatives. So when some teachers raised different opinions, Deng Lido also refuted with reason and evidence.
Some things stick to the original old concepts, and are destined to be gradually surpassed and eliminated, such as the Qing Dynasty, which closed its doors to the outside world. For Hogwarts to develop rapidly, some unwritten rules must be broken, and some vices must be killed in the cradle.
"I agree with Principal Dunledore's decision, Mr. Snape, some of our students must enter the world of Muggles, and a small part of Muggles must enter our world."
"Even if the parents of the graduates are not invited, there is a certain chance that the children of the graduates will be Muggles. It is impossible for us to drive the children of the graduates out of Hogsmeade. Therefore, we can only maintain more than half of the population in Hogsmeade. A man is a man endowed with magic."
Seeing Deng Lido's insistence, many teachers turned to support Deng Lido, not only because Deng Lido monopolized all the power of Hogwarts.
On the contrary, putting aside all prejudices and thinking about it carefully, Deng Lido let the family members of the graduates enter Hogwarts, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. The big deal is that they more or less set some rules for the Muggle parents or Squib children of the graduates.
