Take Uncle Nine to Hogwarts
Chapter 2 Here are my reasons for rejecting Hogwarts
......
In the morning on the small street, there is the smell of steamed stuffed buns and fried dough sticks.
Li Xian got up early and went out for a morning run, and bought steamed buns for breakfast to bring back to Lin Azhi.
However, when he arrived at the entrance of the pharmacy, two foreigners in long robes were already waiting for him there.
"Yo, you're back! There are guests coming to see you."
Lin Azhi, who served them, hurried to Li Xian's side, took the buns, and muttered in a low voice: "Stinky boy, where did you meet foreigners!"
"This is the person I said last night who can help you study abroad."
Lin Azhi froze immediately.After thinking about it all night last night, she has already planned to give up the idea of studying abroad.
Especially when she woke up in the morning and saw that her father Lin Jiuyi hadn't come back at night, she couldn't bear her father's hard work, and she became more determined in this idea.
But at this moment, Li Xian's words, and the two foreigners who suddenly appeared at the door, made Lin Azhi fall into deep thought again.
"I'm sorry! We only have Maza here, so you just make do with it."
After Lin Azhi took out three mazzas from the pharmacy, she took the initiative to avoid them, and let Li Xian and the two foreigners chat alone.
"I am Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts, and this is Professor McGonagall of our school. You are Li Xian!"
The old man with long flowing silver-white beard introduced himself and the tall black-haired witch in emerald green robe beside him.
His voice was slightly hoarse and vicissitudes, and that face was exactly the one familiar to fans like Li Xian.
President of the International Federation of Wizards, chief wizard of the Wizengamot, owner of the Order of Merlin First Class, has been nominated by the Minister of Magic many times, and is recognized as the greatest wizard of our time.
"I can't bear this word of yours!
As a young man, Li Xian hurriedly shook his hand: "Call me Li Xian, or Xiao Xian!"
He never thought that it would be Dumbledore who came to recruit him in person.
He was accompanied by Professor McGonagall, the dean of Gryffindor.
What the hell is going on?
Am I that good?
How do I not notice?
Am I like Harry Potter... the Son of Prophecy?
The three sat down in front of the pharmacy.
In the street in the morning, there are not too few people coming and going in front of the pharmacy.
But it seemed that they were blocked automatically, and no one looked here at all.
Not to mention noticing Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall.
This should be the magic of some hidden space, right?
"Then the purpose of our coming here, you must already know, after all, seven letters have been sent over..."
Dumbledore's words pointed out that Li Xian should be waiting here because he knew they were coming.
Unexpectedly, Li Xian smiled slightly, but said:
"Before my future master left, he calculated it for me. He said that there will be a distinguished guest coming to see me today, so I have been waiting here!"
"Your master?"
"That's what the teacher meant!"
Fortunately, Li Xian's English level in his previous life was not bad, so this kind of ordinary communication is no problem.
Li Xian then took out a few crumpled letters from his pocket:
"This is the letter you sent me before, and it's all here! There are also books, I've read them all, and I've memorized them all, and they're all in there. I'll get them for you later."
"Have you finished reading? Have you memorized everything?"
Professor McGonagall looked disbelieving.
"There are not a few words in total."
Li Xian said with a relaxed face:
"It takes less than a year for a small town in the Daxia area to learn all these things in a month."
Professor McGonagall replied with a somewhat embarrassed expression:
"I've heard that the students here on the east coast study very hard. Perhaps, this course is indeed a little easier for you..."
The meaning expressed by the two people was already very tactful, so Dumbledore did not take back these letters, which can be regarded as a tactful expression of his rejection.
"Then Mr. Li Xian, can you explain in detail why you rejected our Hogwarts."
"I just don't think it's necessary to go to your school. I can learn all your courses here."
Li Xian replied directly.
Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall have imagined what reason Li Xian would refuse to enroll on the way?
For example, the family conditions are difficult?
Parents don't allow it?
Oh, he's an orphan, all of the above are possible, all of these are workable.
In addition, it may be thought that this is a fraudulent letter!Or not interested!
So in the mail, there were several copies of the "Daily Prophet", all of which had Dumbledore's special issue.
But these are not the point now...
Because they never thought that the boy actually said that he could also learn the courses of their Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry here.
How can this be?
Professor McGonagall said suspiciously: "I don't remember that there is a magic school registered by the International Union of Wizards in this area. Could it be a pheasant school? It is said that many black magicians have not been admitted to regular magic schools. As a last resort, Then they will enter such a school and learn some crooked ways."
"I'm sorry, Professor McGonagall, we don't have a magic school here yet, and this is the place where I can learn your courses..."
Li Xian pointed to the Lin family medicine shop next to him and continued:
"The boss here is a Maoshan Taoist. The so-called Maoshan Taoist can be understood as your wizard on the west coast. A large part of the courses on both sides are the same. But after I read the textbooks of your school and compared them, I found that the Maoshan side The course is obviously better for my future development...."
"Oh, can you introduce it in detail, the Maoshan course you mentioned?"
Both Dumbledore and McGonagall instantly became very curious.
"For example, in your herbal medicine class, we have traditional Chinese medicine here, and it has a long history of thousands of years, which is extensive and profound!"
Li Xian said: "Compared to the limitations of the herbal medicine class. Chinese medicine here can not only treat ordinary people, but also wizards, Taoists, and even some Maoshan secret recipes can also treat ghosts..."
"But we still have Potions class..."
Professor McGonagall said a little unconvinced.
"Then what is the practical significance of Potions class?"
She thought that Li Xian was saying that the herbal medicine class was not attractive enough, so she immediately took out the potion class.
Li Xian immediately asked: "For example, the rejuvenation water that turns frogs into tadpoles? Or the compound soup that turns oneself into another person? But what is the real significance of these to wizards? There are a large number of them on the east coast. People recognize traditional Chinese medicine, so even if they only study this one, they will not have to worry about their livelihood in the future. So after a wizard studies potions, can he rely on it to make a living? Even if someone buys his potions, then there are How many customers? After all, Muggles don't buy potions, and potions have lost a large number of customers just because of this..."
This is obviously a very difficult question to answer, so Dumbledore fell into a short thought at the moment.
However, Li Xian continued:
"I have read your textbooks, and many of them are boring and not very helpful for wizards! The substantial help I am talking about here refers to what they have learned from here after graduating from your school How much more can be used?
Or another question, have you ever investigated how Hogwarts students are employed after graduation?How are the living conditions?
Excluding some students from noble backgrounds, what about the vast majority of wizards from middle and small classes?
They can only go to work after graduation?
According to what I read from the "Daily Prophet" that you sent...the current supply of jobs for wizards in the wizarding world is in short supply, and the pressure of competition is extremely high.
Even if you are lucky enough to be a regular employee of the Ministry of Magic, your monthly salary may seem to be higher than ours, but your prices are high!So in a sense, your salary is not as high as my apprentice's salary.
So... do you want me to spend seven or eight years of my youth there, and drink the Northwest Wind in the future? "
This point can be known by referring to the Ron Weasley family in the original book.
A big family, so many people crowded in the dilapidated burrow, even textbooks, magic robes, and even magic wands had to be left over by the older brothers.
That life is called an embarrassment!
Regardless of the gradual embarrassment on Professor McGonagall's face, Li Xian continued to point out the problems he found now:
"Like transfiguration, divination, astronomy... Here on our east coast, the Maoshan family alone has covered all your courses. Not to mention the Quanzhen sect, Wudang sect, Longhushan, etc.. ...why would I go all the way west if I can learn it here?
By the way, your divination and astronomy classes really don't have much real meaning.Physiognomy and feng shui here are different. As long as you are proficient in one of these two, you can eat delicious and spicy food wherever you go on the east coast.
Therefore, the two professors have worked so hard to travel all the way!
I will not joke about my wonderful youth in the next seven or eight years.I am a very pragmatic person. The choice I make in life is to fill my stomach first! "
"We will stay here for a few more days, and I hope you will think about it for a few more days."
McGonagall and Dumbledore, who couldn't figure out how to respond for a while, were going to withdraw their troops first.
"Um... oh, by the way, do you know how to return a letter from an owl?"
Just when the two were about to leave, Li Xian took out a large pile of letters:
"There are still a bunch of letters from owls here, I don't know how to return them..."
Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall looked at the letters.
It was the admission letters from Durmstrang School of Magic, Beauxbaton School of Magic and the other eight schools of magic.
The child unexpectedly received 11 magic schools at the same time.
And there are only 11 official magic schools registered by the International Federation of Wizards!
"It seems that the news has leaked..."
At that moment, there was only one thought in their hearts.
"This child must be captured!"
After returning to the hotel.
Professor McGonagall still couldn't help complaining to Li Xian crazily:
"This student is too mean! So arrogant! If he comes to my academy, I will definitely discipline him!"
Dumbledore smiled, he could hear the meaning of Professor McGonagall's words.
"Do you really think he's being picky?"
"Isn't it? Makes our wizarding school curriculum so unusable."
"He's clearly promoting..."
"what?"
McGonagall looked at Dumbledore suspiciously, but Dumbledore didn't answer, but said helplessly:
"As the child said. Over the years, we have cultivated many outstanding wizards, but we have never paid attention to their employment after entering society..."
In fact, the root cause of the wizarding world's problems on the West Coast is that the country's wizarding job market is already overloaded, yet there are still too many unsalable talents.
And among these people, they often have psychological distortions due to long-term unsatisfactory lives, and eventually join the Black Magic Alliance.
Therefore, to solve this problem, we must first solve their employment problem.
And this problem must start with expanding the market...
Thinking of this, Dumbledore sighed helplessly:
"The real core interests of the wizarding world have always been firmly in the hands of those nobles. The life of middle and low-level wizards has always been very difficult, and they don't even have a chance to get a share of the pie."
And these are things that Dumbledore cannot change.
So, he turned to the most powerful divination professor at Hogwarts, Sybill Trelawney.
According to her prediction, the key to solving this problem lies not in the West, but in the East.
After all, she was the woman who predicted the defeat of the Dark Lord.
Therefore, Dumbledore believed her, and immediately expanded the scope of enrollment to the east coast.
Try to infiltrate from the students, and gradually expand the talent market here.
See if that fixes the problem.
It's a pity that the first level was stuck on this young man named Li Xian.
And Li Xian is just a microcosm of the East Coast boy.
There are so many people with magical potential here.
But for some reason, most of them do not approve of magic.
Whether it is an adult or a child, they will combine school and employment issues after graduation in the first place.
"Package distribution?"
"No distribution? Then why do we go to this school?"
"Is it easy to find a job in the future?"
"It's hard to find a job? Our children don't go to this school!"
This may be the way of thinking of people on the east coast!
In addition to these reasons, after investigation, it turns out that very few students from the east coast have entered Hogwarts for so many years because they have local magicians, who are called Taoists.
The Taoist priests are obviously more popular with the locals, and the relationship between the two parties is very harmonious, especially the parents and elders of these children.
This is completely opposite to the hostile relationship in the west coast where Muggles repel wizards and wizards look down on Muggles!
At first Dumbledore also doubted the authenticity of the prophecy... until he met Li Xian and heard the child's thorough analysis.
He believed in that prophecy even more.
Perhaps only Easterners can change the status quo of our Western wizarding world.
"I have an idea..."
Dumbledore suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and looked at Professor McGonagall excitedly:
"Professor McGonagall, has our school not recruited new teachers for a long time?"
"Not long ago, didn't you just recruit a teacher of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class?"
"No! I'm talking about a new profession, a new field..."
In the morning on the small street, there is the smell of steamed stuffed buns and fried dough sticks.
Li Xian got up early and went out for a morning run, and bought steamed buns for breakfast to bring back to Lin Azhi.
However, when he arrived at the entrance of the pharmacy, two foreigners in long robes were already waiting for him there.
"Yo, you're back! There are guests coming to see you."

"This is the person I said last night who can help you study abroad."
