Chapter 486: ?Full of drums

Just after returning to the secret of Freemasonry from Foley Manor, Mike couldn't help it. He walked quickly toward the meeting room and asked Zhou Hong anxiously:
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, I have set an anchor in Draco Malfoy's mind long ago, and now he is completely our spy." Zhou Hong was also extremely excited at this time, he rubbed his hands and smiled, "and according to him According to the feedback, Voldemort has now confirmed the role of the Vanishing Cabinet and is calling for an attack on Hogwarts!"
"What's the time? When are they going to attack?"
"December 25th, eight o'clock in the evening of Christmas, this time is the climax of the Hogwarts Christmas dinner."
Mike nodded and said:
"We still have time, let Franklin do it, we are going to start moving the vanishing cabinet."
"understand!"
"Any other problems?"
Mike just asked, in his opinion, his arrangement is already perfect, almost everyone is unlikely to have problems.
But Zhou Hong looked embarrassed when he heard this, and said in a strange way:
"Well, there is no big problem elsewhere, but the Muggle Prime Minister..."
Zhou Hong's voice suddenly weakened in the middle of speaking, and finally disappeared.
When Mike heard the words, his eyes drenched, then he turned and frowned:
"Why? He doesn't want to send troops?"
"It's not... it's just..." Zhou Hong couldn't tell the reason behind that weird face, and finally pointed to the conference room not far away, "I can't tell you this thing anyway, it's better to go by yourself. Talk to him, the double-sided mirror is ready for you."
After hearing this, Mike stopped asking, but walked quickly into the meeting room.
There were not many people in the conference room at this time, only Benjamin and Penello were there, and a huge full-length mirror was erected on the conference table, facing Mike's first seat.
As soon as Mike walked into the conference room, he felt something was wrong, because Benjamin and Penello explained that they looked serious, as if they had encountered a very serious problem.
"boss!"
"Mike!"
Seeing Mike appearing, both Benjamin and Penello stood up. The latter looked guilty, and she was the only one who had a problem with everyone's tasks, which made her very uneasy.
She just wanted to come over and explain, but Mike shook his head, touched her cheek for comfort, and sat in front of the double-sided mirror.
The wand in Mike's hand moved slightly, and the image on the mirror in front of his eyes appeared ripples, and finally reflected the appearance of the Muggle Prime Minister.
It was in the afternoon, and the Muggle Prime Minister seemed to be enjoying afternoon tea. The change on the double-sided mirror shocked him and almost sprayed the tea from his mouth on the desk.
"Cough, cough, cough!" The Muggle Prime Minister coughed violently, and wiped his mouth until he breathed a little better. He looked at Mike in the picture with a smile, "Mr. Tangley, we meet again. It's been a day. Like every..."
"Well, no more nonsense!" Mike interrupted him with a sullen face, "I need your military support now. Will you give it or not?"
Mike's attitude is very bad. Penello's aggrieved appearance made him feel extremely distressed. Although he didn't show it, he was already full of anger at the Muggle Prime Minister at this time.
But the Muggle Prime Minister on the opposite side didn't care. He continued to maintain that perfect smile, shook his head slightly and said:
"Mr. Tangli is really a refreshing person, but you don't have to be so impatient. First of all, we can certainly provide military support. After all, this is something that has been written in the contract for a long time. I can't satisfy the number of soldiers!
Know that you are strong and don't care about the sanctions imposed by the International Wizarding Federation, but I am different. I'm just an ordinary person, if the wizards know about this, they send a few people over and I'll be over! Maybe they will put me in the wizard's prison called Avakaban. I heard other wizards say that there..."
"Enough!" Mike yelled impatiently, rubbing his eyebrows, "How many people can you give out?"
The Muggle Prime Minister raised a finger to signal Mike to wait, then turned out a blank sheet of paper, coughed twice and said:
"A ten-person team, all members are composed of the most elite'Royal Navy Special Boat Regiment', and are equipped with the most advanced thermal night vision device, L119a1 rifle..."
The Muggle Prime Minister Beep Baba reported a lot of high-level terms, and Mike was stunned.
But he wasn't a fool either, he finally understood after hearing it.
Feelings said that the other party was only willing to send ten special scouts, and the rest was not willing to give anything.
Mike was really angry now, but he didn't go crazy, but calmed down, looking at the Muggle Prime Minister coldly and saying:
"I want a ground force of about 70 people, of which at least an armored force of about 40 people, plus 4 Savage helicopters and five Tiansha fighters."
"It's impossible!" The Muggle Prime Minister shook his head like a rattle. "I can never do this! Such a large-scale armed force movement will definitely be discovered by the International Magic Federation. Wait until then..."
"Are you so afraid of the International Magic Federation, but not afraid of me at all?"
Before the Muggle Prime Minister had finished speaking, Mike's faint voice reached his ears.
His complexion became stiff, and when he looked at Mike's cold expression through the cold mirror, his body shuddered suddenly.
Mike's words without a trace of emotional fluctuations made him confirm one thing, that is, Mike is serious, this kind of person who dares to ignore the international secrecy laws to deliver potions and magical items to Muggles really dares to assassinate a country. Prime Minister's.
The Muggle Prime Minister swallowed, and said in a weak voice with aggrieved expression:
"They are all the citizens of the Dali Empire, and they are the pillars of the country carefully cultivated by taxpayers with massive taxes."
Mike rubbed the blackthorn wand in his hand and said impatiently:
"So?"
"Got more money!"
After half an hour, the picture on the double-sided mirror finally disappeared. After fierce bargaining, Mike finally used 5 bottles of Veritaserum, 5 bottles of compound decoction, 1 small bottle of Fu Ling, and 100 bottles of potent. Healing potions and 10 sets of invisibility cloaks were leased to command the troops they needed for a total of 10 days.
In addition, what Mike gets is only the right to rent. If these people and machinery are damaged or destroyed in the battle, Mike will have to provide additional compensation. Of course, the specific price has been negotiated and converted into gold plus The pension for each soldier in Long is about 100 gallons, the 10,000 gallons for the Tiansha fighters, the 5000 gallons for the Savage helicopters, and the other for armored vehicles.
At first glance, this transaction seems to be a loss for Mike. After all, the various potions that the other party needs are difficult to deal with, and if the battle does not go well, Mike needs to compensate for a large amount of supplies. These things are even Lost. It is difficult for the Metropolitan Group to get it.
But in fact Mike felt that he was made by blood!
You must know that the manufacturing unit price of the Savage helicopter has reached a staggering 4.5 million pounds! As for the Tiansha fighters, it is even more exaggerated. The cost of each is more than 17 million pounds!
Such a precious war machine, to be honest, the Muggle Prime Minister wants very little, as long as he has these things, Mike even dares to touch Voldemort!
On the other hand, the Muggle Prime Minister did not feel that he was at a disadvantage. After all, these things are old gadgets left over decades ago. It is not distressed to sell Ye Tian. The current Muggle Prime Minister who has not experienced that era of war just looks at it. Instead of these things, what he cares about is those precious magic potions and magical magic props!
In his eyes this is the future!
So in general, this is a business that both parties feel they have made, and everyone is happy!
Penello and Benjamin, who had been watching from the sidelines, were completely stunned at this moment. They never thought that the prime minister of a country could actually go to the Portobello Road Market (the famous large flea market in London) to purchase. The old lady was red-faced and bargaining with Mike! This simply subverted their perception of the Prime Minister!
Mike, who had a full view of their expressions, sighed helplessly.
Now he has basically figured out why Penello and Benjamin couldn't handle such a trivial matter that seemed to him easy.
In the eyes of Penello and Benjamin, the Muggle Prime Minister is a very lofty position and a leader worthy of their respect. This is also the common shortcoming of most Muggles. This may seem strange to others. After all, the Muggle prime minister of the country has always used it to scold him, and ordinary people are not friendly to them.
But these Muggle-born wizards like Penello were sent to a closed school at Hogwarts at the age of eleven. After that, they could only stay in Muggle society for a few months each year. The cognition has always stayed in the childhood. Children's affairs still respect the prime minister.
And it is because of their respect that makes them a disadvantage in their negotiations with the Muggle Prime Minister, because they instinctively think that the other party is a higher-ranking person than themselves, so they dare not take tough measures.
This gives the Muggle Prime Minister the opportunity to be a professional politician. Playing power and negotiating are their old ways!
"Well, there is no need to be so frowning, it's just a small matter." Mike waved his hand and said, "The next time you meet that half-bald old man, you can directly threaten death. Don't have a BB with him. Not his opponent."
"understood."
Penello and Benjamin responded in a low voice, the expressions on their faces still a little disappointed.
But time is urgent, Mike has no time to calm their emotions. After a few brief explanations, Mike took Zhou Hong and other personnel directly to the Secret Realm of Avery.
Today's Avery Secret Realm is very different from when Mike first came.
In the original Avery Secret Realm, except for some magic lights near the Avery factory, all areas are pitch black 24 hours a day, in a wild state, there is usually nothing except the worker ants who go to cut down mushrooms. The creature is willing to go.
However, many areas in the current Avery Secret are planted with luminous mushrooms called "Night Fire" in the queen's nest. The light emitted by these mushrooms is pale green, not strong but in quantity It can basically meet the visual needs of human beings.
According to Benjamin, he originally planned to lay out magic lights on a large area. After all, the Los Santos Group regularly sends adventure teams to explore resources in undeveloped areas in the secret territory, but this plan has attracted strong opposition from the queen.
The reason is that the light from the magic lamp is too dazzling and will burn the ants' already degraded eyes.
As a result, at the suggestion of the queen, the original magic lamp was replaced with a ‘Night Firefly’, which Benjamin was happy to see. After all, the low cost of growing this luminous mushroom is scary.
At the same time, the exploratory teams that are regularly sent out are not eating rice. Now, in addition to the magic liquid and magic cloth in the Secret of Avery, there has been another gem named'black ant stone' after testing. , This kind of gemstone has great use in the practice of gold, and now the profits have gradually caught up with the magic cloth and magic liquid.
Of course, as a price, Benjamin invested in a new ore processing plant in the Secret Realm of Avery, dealing with the raw ore collected by the ants every day.
After Mike came to the Secret Realm of Avery, he first visited the mushroom factory and the ore processing plant, and then went to the queen's lair to discuss the upcoming battle with the other party.
And unlike the great changes on the ground, the queen's nest has not changed much, everything is the same as when Mike came before.
The queen ant continued to stay in the cave directly below the mushroom factory, and the surrounding area was still full of luminous mushrooms. The dots were very beautiful.
But the hole at the top of the cave that was once used for feeding has been abandoned~EbookFREE.me~ Nowadays, the queen’s food is all carried by the workers, and the food is much better. This is what Mike originally promised to the ants. One of the following benefits.
However, the change of food for better did not manifest in the queen's body. Her body was still as weak as Mike's first arrival. Not only did she not become obese, but on the contrary she became thinner.
But this is not surprising. Most of the nutrients in the queen's body are used to cultivate a new generation of ants, and of course she can't get fat.
Corresponding to her becoming thinner, the number of ants in Avery's Secret has almost doubled during this time, so to some extent, Mike's business of improving the queen's food has made a lot of money.
Looking up at the still majestic queen in front of him, Mike said with a smile:
"Hello, Lilith."
"You too, dear master."
