Vol 3 Chapter 529: transaction

The scene became a bit awkward for a while.
Because after Rufus Scrimgeour sighed and made that speech, Jon Hart did not agree with him as before. Instead, he picked up the glass of butter beer on the table and began to "ton" and "ton". The "ton" drank.
Therefore, Scrimgeour had to sit there very uncomfortably, waiting for the other party to finish drinking, and then put down the glass.
"What did you just say, Mr. Scrimgeour?" Jon Hart asked curiously, "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention just now."
Scrimgeour's face sank suddenly, and he repeated the previous words patiently again in a rough voice.
"Director, I don't quite understand what you mean." Jon seemed to be stunned, and then said with a strange expression on his face:
"The witches and wizards interviewed by the Daily Prophet are all people who have made major contributions and sacrifices in the battle against the Dark Lord... Don’t you feel like Albus Dumbledore or Albus? Wizards like Degas Burns shouldn't tell the public about their deeds. In my opinion, that kind of behavior is a betrayal of history."
Scrimgeour now suddenly felt a little big head when he heard the names of Edgar Bones.
He had to patiently replied: "Of course not, you have misunderstood what I mean, Mr. Hart... I certainly did not mean to belittle them, but I have to say that those interviews have seriously disturbed the order of the Ministry of Magic, you understand What do I mean..."
"...The readers of the Daily Prophet, when they see those interviews, they will one-sidedly think that the Ministry of Magic has not fulfilled our due responsibilities... But the fact is the opposite. The Ministry of Magic has done what we can Everything you do, you should understand what I mean..."
The more I said later, Scrimgeour's logic became more confused.
He is not a person who is good at words, otherwise he would not work in the Auror office for decades... In order to explain his ideas to the principal at Hogwarts, he almost racked his brains to express his ideas. .
"Oh oh oh, I understand." Jon made a look that suddenly realized: "You mean, those interviews brought a very negative impression on the Ministry of Magic, and even affected the reputation of the Ministry. Huh?"
"Yes." Scrimgeour breathed a sigh of relief, and he nodded at the same time.
"That's really sorry." Jon made a somewhat awkward smile: "I'm so sorry for causing you trouble."
...
Rufus Scrimgeour was a little angry with the strange attitude of the other party.
If he is not concerned about his status as an official of the Ministry of Magic, he would like to draw out his wand, what is respect for this young man in front of the church.
But thinking about it that way, now he can only be patient and continue to communicate
"Then Principal Hart..." Scrimgeour continued: "What do you mean..."
"I swear that this will not happen again in the future." Jon said with a straight face: "Director, after this interview topic is over, there are probably six to seven issues..."
"...After all, the preparatory work is ready, and the interview manuscript is ready; it is hard for me to find Miss Rita Skeeter, who openly cut the interview later, that would be too bad."
Jon's voice was not hurried, and Rufus Scrimgeour on the other side was about to explode.
Feeling that the emotion of the other party was close to the edge of collapse, Jon suddenly continued:
"Of course, there can also be some interspersed in between, about the contribution of the Ministry of Magic and the staff of the Ministry of Magic in the fight against the mysterious man..."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Scrimgeour calmed down and let out a strange cry.
"After all, in the past two years, in the process of fighting against mysterious people and their minions; there are also a group of brave Aurors and Ministry of Magic officials standing on the front line against them." Jon continued. He explained without hesitation: "For example, Director, you are a very significant example of you; like you have caught many Death Eaters in the past two years and almost faced death many times... …"
Jon once again said righteously: "The reason why I want to contact Mr. Barnabas-Goufei to open that column in the "Daily Prophet" is to let the entire wizarding world remember that in the war, in order to fight The wizards who made great sacrifices by the dark forces... of course include the Auror and some staff of the Ministry of Magic..."
I have to say that compared with the previous responses that deliberately played football, this is a very sincere proposal.
Scrimgeour was also impressed. If he really does what the other party said, "puffing red" one or two Aurors, the wizarding world will realize that the Ministry of Magic has been working hard to protect them. Doubt that they will face much less public opinion pressure.
This is probably also a concession made by the other party?
After thinking about it patiently for a moment, Scrimgeour nodded with a serious face: "I have to say that there is some truth to what you said, Mr. Hart; this proposal does have room for implementation."
"Of course, the number of Aurors and Ministry of Magic members that appeared in the column cannot be less than the members of the Order of the Phoenix and Hogwarts." Scrimgeour seemed to think of something and quickly added.
"Director." Jon said suddenly and earnestly: "Perhaps there are some misunderstandings about the Order of the Phoenix within the Ministry; the Order of the Phoenix is ​​not an illegal armed organization, in fact it exists to fight against the forces of the Dark Demon. ...From the first generation of the Dark Lord fifty years ago, to the second generation of the Dark Lord twenty years ago, to the return of the mysterious man two years ago...
"This is not a profitable organization~EbookFREE.me~ In fact, don’t say it’s me, even if Albus Dumbledore is still alive, in addition to fighting against the dark forces, you can’t control it at will. Strength... If you have any additional worries about this, it's not necessary."
"And what I did was just so that the wizards and victims who made great contributions would not be forgotten by the world."
I have to say that this is a heart-to-heart remark, and Scrimgeour seems to be able to feel the sincerity in the other's tone.
"Yes, Principal Hart." He nodded, "You are indeed right."
"Then Director..." Jon suddenly said, "You seem to have mentioned something about Mrs. Diana Greengrass..."
"This, don't worry about it." Scrimgeour smiled suddenly and patted Jon's shoulder: "Then I'll leave first, Mr. Hart, the butter beer in this bar is really good."
