Chapter 249 Smuggling Kingdom
So that’s why Fenrir has such a detailed list of goods. It seems that this werewolf wizard has at least a cooperative relationship with this organization, and what’s more, he may have a deeper relationship with the silver spear , Anduin nodded thoughtfully.
After Arthur's introduction, Anduin suddenly became interested in this silver spear. Their business model is the same as that of an e-commerce trading platform. They only do channels, not products. No wonder they have been able to get away with it for so long.
Moreover, almost all of this organization has made a brand now, just like the beer billboard in the previous life, as long as you open a food stall, you can make a sign, but you don't have direct contact with the next one, which not only increases the popularity but also ensures safety.
"Then the Ministry of Magic in Europe didn't want to wipe out this organization?" Anduin asked curiously. Although the silver spear is well-organized, this is the world of wizards after all, and all kinds of magic emerge in endlessly. To some clues.
"It's not very clear. The Ministry of Magic abroad is not as stable as ours. The Ministry of Magic in some countries may be chaotic." Arthur shook his head.
"Oh, how do you say that?" Anduin was still quite curious about foreign Ministry of Magic, and immediately asked with interest.
"Just give me an example." Arthur leaned forward a little, getting closer to Anduin, "Do you know the German Ministry of Magic?"
"German Ministry of Magic?" Anduin raised his eyebrows, looking at Arthur with a little puzzlement.
"I'm not very clear about the specifics. I only know that the German Ministry of Magic has been in chaos for decades. This is actually caused by the turmoil in the Muggle world. It is said that their country was divided into two by a wall, and a country was divided. It's the same as two countries." Arthur stretched out a hand horizontally, gestured against a wall, and said with an exaggerated expression.
Is it the Berlin Wall?This wall divides the whole of Germany into East Germany and West Germany. It seems that it was pushed down in 1989. Does this matter in the Muggle world also affect the wizarding society?Anduin looked at Arthur with some confusion.
"You must know that even in the wizarding world, there are still many mixed-race or Muggle wizards in it, especially on the European continent, where the density of wizards is higher than ours, and the division of the Muggle society has also affected the German Ministry of Magic. Although the impact is not too great, it also increases a lot of internal conflicts, which makes their internal structure much looser than other countries."
"So the German Ministry of Magic is not strict with the management of the wizarding community. At the same time, in other countries on the European continent, each country's environment is different, and the relationship between each country's Ministry of Magic is also different."
"Organizations like the Silver Spear, in the eyes of the Ministry of Magic in many countries, are evil criminal groups, but for other countries they are friends and can be cooperated with."
"That's why we hang overseas alone. Although we are relatively lonely, we also have fewer enemies."
Arthur said a lot in one breath, his mouth was a little dry from exhaustion, and he quickly took another sip of vanilla tea.
"What is the attitude of Minister Budeno towards this silver spear? That Fenrir is obviously related to the silver spear. Presumably they also want to extend their hands to the British territory."
Anduin recalled what Hogg had mentioned. He had seen some smugglers picking goods in that cave. It is possible that the silver spear had infiltrated it, and the stronghold of Fenrir might even be a listed company. black market.
It's just that the werewolf's brains may not be very good, and there are some problems with his reputation. He has the habit of eating guests, and he doesn't know how the management of Silver Spear thinks about it.
"Minister Budnor's will is naturally resolute. She will not allow such criminals to take root in the British wizarding world. Since the werewolf stronghold was discovered by you, the Minister has arranged for the Department of Magical Beasts Management and Control to organize several times with Aurors. A surprise spot check was carried out, and many smuggled magical animals were indeed seized."
Arthur said that although he is not a big official in the Department of Legal Enforcement, he is also considered an independent department chief, so he knows many high-level decisions.
Anduin nodded in approval when he heard the words. This kind of organization will have a bad impact on the local magical animal ecology, and must be dealt with resolutely from the very beginning, otherwise it will be deeply rooted in the future and it will be difficult to solve it.
"By the way, Mr. Arthur." Anduin asked quickly, remembering that he had a business to consult when he came here, "You are the director of the Office for Prohibiting the Misuse of Muggle Substances. I would like to ask you about the legal provisions in this regard."
"Oh? Why are you suddenly interested in this area? No one cares about the laws related to Muggle items. Now it is extremely difficult to recruit someone who understands this area." Arthur heard Anduin chatting suddenly His expertise suddenly became interesting.
"I want to know what is the misuse of Muggle items. If I cast spells on Muggle items and make them into commodities, will it violate the law?" Anduin asked what he was most concerned about.
When he was thinking about starting a business, he thought about processing Muggle items directly for sale. After all, the craftsmanship of the products produced in the Muggle world is not bad, and the output is high, which can save him a lot of time and cost spent on production.
"You're asking this." Arthur chuckled, obviously quite experienced in this, and blurted out without much thought.
"The Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office of the Ministry of Magic is primarily responsible for restricting wizards from enchanting objects used by Muggles and ensuring that they do not return to Muggle hands, primarily to uphold the laws of secrecy."
"And another law states that it is forbidden to use magic on Muggle items with subjective use intentions, and make them add additional functions."
"For example, if I want a teacup produced in the Muggle world to learn to speak, it means that I subjectively want him to add additional functions. If I really cast a spell to make it able to speak, then I will break the law."
"So in theory, as long as magic is used on Muggle items, it is considered a violation of the law." Arthur said with a sip of tea with a smile.
"So strict?" Anduin was speechless after listening to Arthur's explanation. Doesn't that mean that it is not allowed to cast spells on any Muggle items.
Seeing that Anduin's face suddenly became stiff, Arthur smiled, "Why, do you want to study Muggle items?"
"It's not considered research. I want to do some alchemy prop business in the next one or two years. If possible, I think it might be more convenient to process some Muggle items directly into magic items, but it doesn't seem to be possible now. It's gone." Anduin rubbed his temples, his expression a little frustrated.
