Chapter 76: Murphy's Auror Office

When Murphy walked into the Siren Song again, the atmosphere was a little strange.

The originally lively pub suddenly became quiet, and everyone was secretly watching him.

He looked around a little strangely, but no one dared to look at him, and they all avoided his gaze.

He walked to a table and wanted to ask what was going on, but the latter immediately stood up and wiped the bench for him, "Master Murphy, please sit down."

Murphy found it a little funny, but he also understood it.

He just brought down an Auror Office Director, but he established prestige among this group of marginal wizards.

These guys have a keen sense of smell.

However, this feeling was not bad. He did not sit down, but thanked the man, then picked up a glass of wine on the table and drank it all, and said to the audience: "I am happy today, and I will pay for all the expenses here!"

The guests were stunned for a moment, and then burst into cheers: "Murphy! Long live!"

Murphy ignored the guests who were lively again and walked to a room at the back. Lisandro personally opened the door for him, "The master ordered that you will be a VIP here in the future. Only you and your friends have the right to use this room in the future."

Murphy looked at Lisandro with interest, "Lisandro, I still like your unruly look before."

Lisandro's face twitched, but he did not refute, which made Murphy a little embarrassed, "It's just a joke, don't mind. Thank your master for me."

In the room was the fairy Locke who had been waiting for a long time.

Locke is now wearing a suit that looks quite expensive, with a pair of gold-studded pointed leather shoes on his feet, three gold chains around his neck, and five huge gem rings on his hands.

Hiss.

Who the hell is this ugly upstart?

Why is he dressed so extravagantly!

"Locke, have you made a fortune recently?" Murphy asked.

"Thanks to you, I have just been promoted to the manager of the fund operations department of Gringotts Bank in the UK." Locke said, with a smile on his ugly face.

Even though Murphy didn't quite understand the expressions of the aliens, he could see that he was quite proud of it.

"Congratulations."

"It's all thanks to your care." Locke said.

When the goblin said this, his tone was quite sincere. In fact, he was able to become the manager because of Murphy. Murphy had let Locke run his property in the wizarding world before, and gave him a lot of privileges, such as allowing him to invest in some high-quality products or projects under certain conditions without notifying himself in advance.

In the past six months, relying on the huge size of Murphy's property and his own economic acumen that far surpassed the wizarding world, he has made some profits for Murphy.

By the way, his own performance in Gringotts was very outstanding, so he was promoted to the position of manager.

If it weren't for Murphy, he would not have been able to climb to this position in his life due to his inferior bloodline.

This goblin, who was looked down upon by his family and all his peers since childhood, has since developed a habit of showing off. He wants to write "I am a manager" on his forehead and walk around everywhere, and the outfit he spent most of his fortune on is a concentrated manifestation of this problem.

Murphy expressed his understanding of this.

Whether human or goblin, everyone is a vulgar thing. Isn't living for a sense of superiority?

I finally got superiority, but I can't show it off. Are you trying to suffocate me?

"I asked you to come here for two reasons." Murphy said, sitting next to the goblin to avoid being dazzled by his big gold chain.

"The first thing is that I want to open a store and I'm going to let you advise me."

"What kind of store do you think it is?"

"I haven't thought of a name yet. Its main business is similar to the security companies in the Muggle world. You know security companies, right?"

Seeing the goblin shook his head, Murphy had to explain: "Security companies provide security services, such as protecting the personal safety of wizards, or protecting facilities from invasion, protecting important items from theft, etc...."

The goblin still didn't quite understand, "It sounds like the work of Aurors and Gringotts."

"Yes, but it's not exactly the same. Aurors won't specifically protect an ordinary wizard, but what if the wizard is threatened by another wizard? Aurors generally don't care about such things, but security companies can protect the wizard and prevent him from being hurt. As for Gringotts, it's impossible to protect the property and collections of wizards, right?"

"Take the Malfoy family for example. I heard that someone set fire to their house some time ago and burned everything. Many precious wines and many valuable black magic items were burned. If there is a security company to protect, such things can be avoided."

Locke: "..."

Didn't you set the fire at Malfoy's house?

Do you think I'm one of those stupid Aurors who know nothing?

It's all over the world!

But the goblin didn't dare to say anything or ask anything, he could only take what the boss said.

"I roughly understand. However, most wizards have wands, and most of them have learned some combat magic in school... Besides, it's not the wizard war period anymore, the dark wizards have been arrested, everyone is safe, no one should need such security services, right?"

Murphy: "It doesn't matter if they don't need it. I need it."

Huh?

Locke couldn't figure it out. You open a store, and then you buy your own services?

What's the trick?

But the goblin suddenly understood, and then he was frightened by his own idea.

Murphy wants to build his own Auror army!

As expected of the new Dark Lord in the rumors!

Are you ready to build your own army of thugs now?

What's more terrifying is that he doesn't want to set up a secret organization like the Death Eaters like the previous Dark Lord. He just does it openly and legally! This pattern is no less than that of the previous Dark Lord.

"This... There is no precedent in the wizarding world..."

"So, there is no law prohibiting it, right?" Murphy said.

Locke nodded.

"That's fine." Murphy said, "Think about it for me, what kind of store to open and what kind of name to use, which is more in line with my requirements?"

Locke wanted to say that it would be quite appropriate to open a Murphy-branded Auror Office. As for the name of the store, it would be called Murphy's Ministry of Magic, which must be very appropriate and accurate, and absolutely meet your requirements.

But he didn't dare. He was just a little clever goblin, and he wanted to count the gold coins tomorrow.

So he racked his brains and thought, "How about a pest control shop? It feels a bit similar to the security company you mentioned."

"No! It's a security company, not a housekeeping company." Murphy flatly refused. Pests? He escaped from the Ministry of Magic just to avoid dealing with pests. Why would he open a pest control shop now? Murphy was afraid that his anxiety disorder would relapse.

"Then... Quidditch training camp?" Locke said, "It should be possible to recruit some young wizards for training..."

"Team?" Murphy's mind was somewhat opened up, "This idea is not bad, but it's not a team. Duel club? Or Auror training class?"

The selection of Aurors is so strict, there must be someone who wants to come for special training, right? In this way, can't you put the people you have trained into the Auror team?

No, no, it's hard to take back the water that has been poured out. Infernal Affairs is the best example.

It's safer to keep the power in your own hands.

"Forget it, let's just go to the Wizard Security Store."

"Let's talk about something else. How are you finding the house elves?"
