Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

Community defense is nothing new for Brits without wizards.

The UK is the birthplace of community construction and has accumulated rich experience in years of construction and development.The community here has various official or non-governmental organizations ranging from medical care, pensions, education to lawn competitions.In some places where the police force is insufficient, community residents will also organize their own security patrols to patrol the community.

The opportunity to establish a community defense system in the magic world was Percy's resentment for the problems encountered in his work in a letter to Zhang Xu when he first parachuted into the position of director of the Auror office.

Except for going out to perform tasks, the Aurors basically stayed in the Ministry of Magic on standby.Although they have great mobility and long-distance strike ability because they can use methods such as apparation to rush to the scene of the incident, their current targets often have the same mobility.This makes it so that in many cases, when the Aurors received the alarm and rushed to the scene of the crime, the Death Eaters who committed the crime had already finished their bad work and ran away. As a result, the Aurors didn't even see half of them.

After analyzing these cases, Percy found that if "early detection, early reporting, and early stop" can be achieved, a large part of the cases where Aurors were late and returned without success could lead to the arrest of criminals.

However, due to the high entry threshold for Aurors, their number is limited. If the "police sinking" method is used to disperse Aurors all over the UK, the Aurors in the Ministry of Magic will not be enough.

Faced with such a situation, after a few of them laid down a group of owls, a plan code-named "Enter Ten Thousand Houses Safely" was preliminarily formulated.

Cedric, as the "veteran official" of the Ministry of Magic among several people present, is the one who has the most right to speak on issues involving government work.

"Percy and I have discussed this plan with the Minister in private many times." Cedric said, "Although the Minister believes that this plan is theoretically feasible, there are still many problems to be solved in the actual implementation."

"The biggest problem is the communication problem. How can the residents effectively report to the Ministry of Magic in the first place."

"Secondly, there is the issue of funding for the joint defense team's activities. The total amount of this money is not small."

"The third is how to let residents across the country know this new organization in a short period of time and organize them effectively."

Then Cedric went on to say several questions that Scrimgeour had asked about the plan.Scrimgeour has been an Auror for many years and is very familiar with grassroots work, so he can see the advantages and possible problems of this plan.

Finally he said: "The minister said that if I could fix these problems, then he would put me in charge of the project immediately."

It is not the first time that some of you here have heard of these issues, and they have considered some of them in discussions through letters over the past year.It's just that, except for Zhang Xu, who is in the middle and coordinates the command, no one else has fully faced these problems.

And Zhang Xu assigned these problems to people who were good at solving them when they arose from the very beginning. Today can be said to be the time to check and accept the results.

"About the communication issue, how are you preparing?" Zhang Xu asked the twin brothers.

Instant messaging is the basis of this joint defense plan. If the communication channel between the residents and the Ministry of Magic cannot be opened, then the effect of this plan will be greatly reduced.

Fred put down the grilled fish in his hand, then took out several palm-sized touch-screen mobile phones, and sent one to everyone present.

"This is the latest

Ben's civilian contact terminal, they can send alarm information to the command terminal dedicated to Auror within a certain range. "George introduced, "It can send a certain length of sound, text and images, and the cost is not high. "

"And the command system used by the Aurors is like the big screen used in the Muggle studies class. It can display a map of the area. When it receives an alarm message, it can display the location of the message on the big screen. and content."

"And its disadvantage is that the distance of signal transmission is limited. If it is to be put into use, several counties need to share a command system."

Making such a communication terminal is no stranger to the twin brothers. In Hogwarts, the "Hogwarts defenders" have a campus-level communication terminal, and professors also have professor-specific communication terminals.These contact terminals are the crystallization of the wisdom of Hogwarts students, and the twin brothers are also part of the production team.

Several people present used this contact terminal according to the instructions of the twin brothers. This terminal was much simpler than what they used in Hogwarts before, and the cultural level of the users was also considered.Like the popular touch-screen mobile phones in the next century, this terminal can even input text by handwriting, and then press the owl image next to it, and the content will be sent out.

"What's the price of it, and what's the price of the terminals used by the Aurors? If we want to cover it, how many sets are needed in the UK?" Cedric asked several questions in succession.

"The civilian terminal only needs one galleon, and we basically don't have much profit at this price." Fred said.

However, Fred did not disclose how much the command system used by the Aurors sells, and it is estimated that most of their profits are there.

Then he took a copy of the product manual and handed it to Cedric.

"How long will it take to put it into use?" Cedric continued to ask.

"We have prepared sufficient inventory, and there are five sets of terminals used by Aurors. As long as you agree to use them, we can deliver them immediately." George said, "If you don't purchase them, we will have no money for Ginny to use." Bought new robes before the new term begins."

After a few more questions were asked and answered, everyone recognized the work of the twin brothers.

The biggest problem in the Auror office now is the lag of information. If this system works normally, it will greatly improve the efficiency of the Aurors' actions.

Zhang Xu glanced at the complacent twins, and could see that the two of them were starting to drift off. It was estimated that they were going to enter the wizard's mobile communication market next.

The biggest hardware problem is solved, and the next thing is about the cost.

"Take a look at this plan." Zhang Xu handed a document to Cedric.

"Who benefits from my plan, who pays." Zhang Xu said to others, "The joint defense team members are semi-public in nature, do not need to pay wages, and the daily maintenance costs are not high. Of course, if the team members want to Going to have a drink with public funds, then they have to increase the amount. The specific amount can be agreed by each community, and the Ministry of Magic only provides guidance."

"The Ministry of Magic only needs to provide the same standard medical benefits, disability benefits, pensions, bonuses, medals and other expenses as the Aurors. In fact, the money is not much."

Most of the people present here are people who are in charge and know Chai Migui. They can see that the Ministry of Magic does not need to spend too much money to maintain the operation of this plan, so they all think that this kind of pie-in-the-sky thing is very important for the Ministry of Magic. Might be acceptable.

After the money issue is settled, the most troublesome personnel organization issue comes next.
