Chapter 504: Cornelius Fudge, the Death Within

As if it was rehearsed, everyone present turned their heads and looked at Cornelius Fudge, who was sitting at the end.

At this moment, the arrogant and complacent expression on this guy's face was no longer there, and was replaced by fear and uneasiness.

When everyone saw that expression, they instantly understood what was going on and showed contempt and disdain.

I thought the other party had exploded today, but I didn't expect that it was not the case at all.

It turns out that this guy had received the news a long time ago and had been hiding it from everyone. No wonder Lucius Malfoy had left this meeting room.

This guy seemed to have taken a reassurance pill and did not seem to be worried at all about the dire situation in the British wizarding world.

Instead, I advise everyone every day that they need to be calm when doing things and not be so impatient. So, is that what I am waiting for?

He wanted to stage a Jedi counterattack, but now it has turned into a complete joke.

"Alright." Just when everyone was about to kill Cornelius Fudge with their eyes, old Barty Crouch spoke again.

He didn't look at Cornelius Fudge, who was almost turning black and white, but stared at Carl with one eye.

"Since Mr. Hohenzollern has given the answer to the question, I think this topic ends here."

"Let's continue discussing Mr. Hohenzollern's plan."

This sentence brought the topic back to Carl's plan. Compared to the previous silent atmosphere, this discussion was much more intense.

Countless officials rushed to express their opinions.

"Yes, yes, there are still so many ordinary wizards starving. We really can't waste any more time."

"I have long said that the theme of the meeting must be clear and irrelevant topics should not be discussed, but this rule has not been followed."

"Isn't that someone who took the lead in the destruction? But now it's all right. After this crisis, a new era will come and everything will be fine."

While everyone secretly expressed their loyalty to Carl, they also did not forget to mock Cornelius Fudge.

Carl showed no joy or disgust at this, but just stretched out a finger and tapped the table next to his left hand.

Kevin Lestrange, who received the signal, immediately spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"It seems that it is finally my turn to speak. I thought that an unimportant person like me was not qualified to speak in such a high-level meeting."

Hearing this, all the Ministry of Magic officials present looked embarrassed, and in the end they did not exchange any glances or words.

As if they had received some kind of psychological hint, they all turned their heads to look at Cornelius Fudge, who was sitting at the end and almost curled up into a ball.

The uniform movements and eyes seemed to be saying.

"It's all this guy's fault. It has nothing to do with us."

Just like that, Cornelius Fudge, who was already disheartened, was once again blamed by his good colleagues.

But at this moment, he was no longer in the mood to care about these things. The only thing he could do was to pray in his heart that this damn meeting would end quickly.

On the other side, Kevin Lestraki actually had the same idea in his mind. He was really fed up with living under the same roof with these selfish idiots.

So after simply complaining, he returned to his normal state, a professional worker.

"The Central Bank of the British Wizarding World. This term may be unfamiliar to everyone, but it is very simple to explain."

"You can simply understand that this is an ordinary company, but its business is somewhat special, responsible for the manufacture and issuance of currency."

"Mr. Hohenzollern's plan is this: the British wizarding central bank will adopt a joint-stock system, and we..."

"Please wait a moment." This time it was old Barty Crouch who interrupted Carl, looking at him seriously.

"Mr. Hohenzollern, please forgive me for being blunt. This plan is not suitable. The cash in hand of the British Ministry of Magic cannot compare to yours."

"If the shareholding system is implemented, plus the problems we need to solve, this so-called central bank of the British wizarding world will become your private asset."

"This is unacceptable to our British Ministry of Magic, especially when it holds the power to issue new currency."

"The British Ministry of Magic must have a say in this possible institution."

Kevin Lestrange looked unhappy after being interrupted again, while Carl looked at everyone present with a smile.

"Don't worry, everyone. I've already said that I came here with sincerity. How could I possibly do something like this to keep it all for myself?"

"I know that many of you have called me a blonde devil, but what I want to say is that devils are actually the most fair."

“And I will always satisfy my guests.”

After saying that, Carl touched Kevin Lestrange's head to comfort his kitten.

Kevin Lestrange pouted his lips, as if accepting the other party's comfort, and then he spoke unhappily.

"If there is no problem, then I will continue. I hope no one will interrupt me this time."

"If you have any questions, wait until I finish what I have to say."

After saying this, Kevin Lestrange tapped a few times on his keyboard, and various colors began to fill the disc in front of him.

The gold color representing Carl eventually reached 40% of the entire disc, and the red color of the British Ministry of Magic accounted for 50%.

The remaining 10% is black, with the words "Free Capital" written on it in English.

After completing these operations, Kevin Lestrange pointed to the disc in the picture and said.

"As you can see, Mr. Karl Hohenzollern will acquire 40% of the shares of the Central Bank of the British Wizarding World."

"The British Ministry of Magic as a whole will receive 50%, and the remaining 10% will be donated free of charge to all ordinary wizards in the British wizarding community."

"It will become a collectively held shareholding. The specific reason for doing so involves the management of the future central bank of the British wizarding world."

"That's what we're going to discuss later."

"If everyone has no problem with the share distribution, the next thing we need to discuss is how to allocate the money."

After saying that, Kevin Lestrange lightly clicked the mouse a few times, and the image in the projection switched again, and a string of numbers appeared in front of everyone.

This string of numbers is dynamic. The total amount has reached 1 million and is still increasing rapidly at a rate of about 3700 per second.

Kevin Lestrange pointed at the number and spoke expressionlessly.

"This number is the problem we need to solve. The entire British wizarding world is facing a huge debt that continues to soar."
