Archdruid of Hogwarts

Ernie, who is addicted to harvesting higher-value emotional currency through event interaction, will naturally not let go and continue to deepen development and make money through these interactive projects.

Therefore, when Dumbledore lamented that "too much was given," Ernie acted as a reasonable guest without being arrogant and reminded: "The Slavs are now adding a wave of exchange rate investments, and they can barely do it. It won’t work in a few days.”

"This, isn't it good?"

Ernie turned on the devil's temptation mode: "Where are you? There are many companies with dozens or hundreds of times more money than you.

To put it cruelly, this money will not stay in the Slavic wallet just because you don't earn it.

In comparison, you are considered to have a conscience. The worst case scenario would be to take care of the money for the Slavs for a while and then give it to them later. "

"Can you still say such cheap things?" Dumbledore felt that this was clearly a case of being obedient despite getting an advantage.

Ernie sheepishly explained: "Why can't it be done?

First of all, who do you think are the people who have the ability to foresee and carry out this kind of financial heist?

Could it be ordinary people?

Do they have that information channel and that much money to operate it? "

Dumbledore nodded slightly. Indeed, except for a few really outstanding people or those who are lucky, most ordinary people have already been screwed when they get the news.

It's like waiting until the price of pork reaches sky-high levels before you start investing in pig farming. It's already too late.

Ernie added: "Secondly, ordinary people's ability to resist risks is extremely low. They can often only respond passively. This kind of response can only play a very limited role."

Dumbledore thought for a moment and nodded again.

Ernie continued: "Finally, if you think of the country as a giant, I think this catastrophe is equivalent to the Imperius Curse being cast on the giant.

During the Cold War, they were fooled by their opponent's performance and really thought that their opponent's system was good. In fact, there is no best, only the most applicable.

Anyway, the Slavic decision-makers are all stupid, or they are pretending to be stupid for their own selfish interests. He did not hesitate to plunge the people into dire straits.

Isn't it a good thing that they themselves are not clear-headed, and good-hearted people keep their property for them to prevent it from being stolen or defrauded by people with ulterior motives?

Even if the storage fee is high, it's still better than not being able to get even a single Nat back, right? "

Dumbledore was silent.

After a long while, he asked: "If this is a good thing, why don't you do it?"

"A matter of values." Ernie expressed his opinion: "I think helping others is indeed a virtue, but moral kidnapping is shameful in any way, such as self-proclaimed moral kidnapping.

To be more specific, the saying "the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility" that many people tout The excuse of rights. "

Dumbledore's eyes widened when he heard this. He felt offended and even scolded him in front of him.

When he and Grindelwald wanted to do big things, they were supported by the concept of 'with great power comes great responsibility'.

But a series of things happened next...

However, until now, he still feels that there is a problem not with the concept, but with the means. Grindelwald is too radical and his actions are becoming more and more cruel.

"It's hard for me to agree with your statement. I think those with strong energy must have a sense of responsibility and a sense of mission."

Ernie bluntly pointed out: "I know you said that because it is the source of your motivation to try to improve the conditions of the people in Lilliput.

But I want to say that it is first of all your own rightness and nobility. When you reach out, have you considered the feelings of the person you are helping? "

Dumbledore frowned and said carefully: "I believe that people have many things in common. So, I think it is a good thing, and others should probably think it is a good thing."

Ernie replied: "Simple understanding, indeed. But the reality is often more complicated. To give a simple example, you are training Harry and letting him endure hardships so that he can understand the truth and master the techniques.

If I don't know the inside story, I can use my money power to help Harry solve various problems and make him happy. What do you think of my enthusiastic help? "

"..."

Ernie added: "I have here a limerick from a later generation in the East.

He kills people to become a robber in order to make money, and he worships gods for peace of mind.

He sucks blood and extracts marrow for exploitation, and puts on charity shows to deceive the world.

They engage in open fire fighting, smashing, looting, and calling themselves vigilantes for peace.

Worrying about people committing suicide with weapons, they shot and killed them indiscriminately to show their dignity. "

This limerick was actually compiled by Ernie in his previous life for the European and American Alliance represented by the Lighthouse Country.

There are a lot of real events behind it.

And in this context, "With great power comes great responsibility" is really an excuse to be a bitch and to invade other countries. It is also arrogant, boastful, and self-impressed.

It's just that his butt problem in this life makes him shameless to use this poem to taunt people again.

1. The wool comes from the sheep. No matter whether it absorbs the blood of capitalists or something else, the fact that he is now a capitalist cannot be eliminated.

2. From a true point of view, he has to admit that what he has always hated is not capitalists, but his failure to become a capitalist earlier.

Therefore, I am not a white lotus myself. I can simply express my position and pretend that although I am evil, I still have some principles.

But this time, in order to compete with Dumbledore, he moved the poem out. And supplemented by some descriptions of events.

Finally, he said: "I can predict the collapse of the Slavs, and naturally I can predict more. The Gulf War (the first 90.8.2-91.2.28) is just the beginning. This time, Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, at least Seemingly righteous.

But then things were not so glamorous. The laundry detergent incident was a shame that the United States, which calls itself the beacon of the free world, can never escape. "

Dumbledore was silent for a long time before saying: "There are always people who exploit loopholes and distort concepts."

Ernie said: "This is the difference between us. Your base point is noble, and mine is pragmatic. When a situation arises, what you think about is what I can do, and what I think about is whether others need to take action. ?

You think it's a pleasure to help others without any reward. I think it's a pleasure to help others and one should reward others. If you only ask others to contribute without giving anything in return, that's a hooliganism. You take yourself as the starting point, I take others as the starting point. Why? Because this is not my business. "

Ernie's words really came from the bottom of his heart.

Including those sermons he gave to Harry and the others, he himself would laugh at himself from time to time. This was a sermon, and I was just talking nonsense.

It is an expression of ‘I am doing good for others, but do others recognize it? 'Attitude.

If others are willing to accept this kind help, that's fine.

If I am not happy, it is because I am pretending, moving myself, and harvesting emotional currency.

It's not stated directly, but the meaning is almost conveyed.

You can listen to it or not, you can take it as nonsense or you can take it as good advice. Anyway, that’s how I am and I won’t change it. Because in my opinion, good people and good deeds should be rewarded, and profit should be used as encouragement to encourage more people to do it, instead of having to become a noble person before they can do it.

Do noble people deserve to give freely?

Is it really appropriate that someone who makes atomic bombs is not as good as someone who sells tea eggs?

Anyway, Ernie and Dumbledore had a little quarrel.

Dumbledore has his own stubbornness and persistence, and is not easy to change.

And he has no fundamental motivation to change.

After all, his "with great power comes great responsibility" was used in a positive way, unlike some people who just used it as an excuse to cover up their dirty behavior.

Later, Dumbledore did accept Ernie's suggestion and increased his investment in Slavic wool.

But he bound himself with a magical oath. If he could not return the wealth to the Slavs within a few years after the incident, he would become a squib unable to cast spells.

This oath is vicious enough and reflects Dumbledore's determination.

A noble person who has truly escaped from vulgar taste?

Or is it because you have lived long enough to realize that ‘everything is inferior, but you just want to leave a good name’?

Ernie felt that it didn't matter anymore. Being a person was more about deeds than caring about things, and good words were not as good as good deeds. From this perspective, Dumbledore deserves praise as a whole, whether it is what he did in the past or what he is doing now.

For example, in the case of Lilliput, you can only say that it is unrealistic, but you cannot criticize it on a moral level, and you even have to admire its nobility.

Of course, pragmatists like Ernie, while admiring them, will return to reality again and express their dissatisfaction: throughout the ages, are there many examples of good intentions and good intentions, but in the end things went wrong?

But it must be said that he still prefers to be friends with the white wizard.

In fact, he insisted on his own opinion on the issue of Lilliput, mainly because he was worried that Dumbledore would have to carry a burden that he could not carry, and eventually go from one extreme to another.

Some people may say that this is just nonsense. Dumbledore's three views have been established for many years and have been driven by inertia for many years. How can it be possible to change drastically?

Ernie felt that as long as a person lives, the unbearable weight on the soul will always exist.

Moreover, being old does not necessarily mean that one is psychologically stable, otherwise there would be no such thing as an "old child"...
