Chapter 156 Percy Weasley, Come to My Bowl

What are your plans for the future?

There are many plans. His latest plan is to make Penelope his girlfriend.

Then continue to study hard and strive to become the student union president in the seventh grade.

Percy took a sip of his Coke, then excitedly told Sebastian about the arrangements for the sixth and seventh grades.

"Student Union President? Not bad!" Sebastian nodded with a smile. "What about after graduation?"

"How do you plan your life after graduation?"

Percy said firmly to Sebastian without thinking.

"Professor Swann, I hope to work for the Ministry of Magic after graduation and work my way up to a senior management position."

"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I protect power, I like power, and I want to gain power."

"It's nothing to laugh at. Everyone has their own pursuits." Sebastian smiled softly. "Can you tell me why you made this choice?"

"Of course." Percy's face showed a hint of reminiscence.

"I think the initial reason I had this idea was because of my parents' expectations."

"In my parents' eyes, working in the Ministry of Magic is the most respectable job in the entire wizarding world."

"Before me, they always persuaded my brothers Bill and Charlie to work in the Ministry of Magic."

"It's just that my two brothers love freedom and adventure, and don't like the monotonous nine-to-five job in the Ministry of Magic."

"By the end, Bill was working as a curse breaker in Egypt, and Charlie was working on a dragon farm in Romania."

"Now, my parents' expectations fall on me."

At this point, Percy smiled knowingly: "To be honest, among all the children in our family who are still in school, only my personality is more suitable for working in the Ministry of Magic."

"Fred and George are the two most eccentric of all our siblings. Asking them to work at the Ministry of Magic would definitely be more painful than killing them."

"At this point, I have a feeling that Mum's wish for both of them to enter the Ministry of Magic will be dashed."

"As for Ron," Percy smiled and shook his head, "I don't know what will happen in the future."

"From now on, it is very likely that his grades will not meet the requirements for admission to the Ministry of Magic."

"The only possibility is to enter the Auror Office and become an Auror."

"As for our little sister Ginny whom you just met, I can't say yet whether she is willing to join the Ministry of Magic."

Speaking of Ginny, Percy's face was full of doting: "Personally, I think she should do whatever she wants to do when she grows up."

I see, Percy was first influenced by his parents and came up with the idea of ​​working in the Ministry of Magic.

Then I have always held myself to the standards for entering the Ministry of Magic.

That's right, unlike his other brothers, Percy likes order, so he appears to be more serious, more persistent, and more ambitious.

Sebastian had always suspected that the Sorting Hat discriminated against Percy based on surnames, and when he saw that Percy was born into a Weasley family, he was sorted into Gryffindor.

To be honest, Percy's personality is obviously more suitable for Slytherin, at the very least he should be assigned to Ravenclaw.

Sebastian smiled at Percy and continued, "Is there any other reason why you want to pursue power?"

"Yes!" There was a hint of regret in Percy's voice. "If it was my parents' influence at the beginning, it was poverty that made me firm in this idea later."

"Although our Weasley family enjoys a good reputation in the wizarding world, our financial situation has always been poor."

"In other words, as a large family, our family lives in extreme poverty."

"I remember very clearly that when Ron entered school last year, he couldn't even afford a new wand, so he still used Charlie's old wand."

"Speaking of which, I would also like to thank you, professor, for the work-study program you proposed." Percy looked at Sebastian, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Ron applied for a tutoring position at the Duelling Hall and bought a new wand with his salary."

"He showed off in front of us quite a lot this summer."

Percy's expression slowly hardened.

"My family's poverty has put me under tremendous pressure since I was a child. I am eager to improve my family's economic situation through my own efforts and provide them with better living conditions."

"And becoming a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic is the best way to improve your family's fortunes."

"An excellent ambition," Sebastian nodded approvingly.

Now Percy's mind is still very pure, and he is only thinking about changing the fate of his family.

However, after entering the Ministry of Magic, he was crushed by reality and fell deeper and deeper in pursuit of power.

Until he betrayed his original intention and fell out with his family.

With this in mind, Sebastian asked gently, "Which department of the Ministry are you going to?"

"Department of Magical Law Enforcement," Percy blurted out. "Or maybe the Department of International Magical Cooperation."

Sebastian was noncommittal about Percy's answer: "Have you ever thought about a question?"

"Your father is a marginal figure in the Ministry of Magic. When you enter the Ministry of Magic, it can be said that you have almost no background. You can only rely on yourself for everything."

"If I were just an ordinary employee, it wouldn't matter."

"However, your ambition goes far beyond this. You want to become a superior person and a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic."

"With no connections at all, how long will it take you to climb up?"

Hey......

Percy sighed inwardly.

I know very well that what Sebastian said is all true.

Without a background, it is very difficult to get ahead in the Ministry of Magic.

Percy's face turned pale. "Even if it's hard, I will slowly climb up."

"I will work harder than others. I can even treat the Ministry of Magic as my home."

“I believe that my leaders will see my efforts and promote me.”

Hearing this, Sebastian said with a smile.

"Have you ever thought that in the Ministry of Magic, each level up is a job for each person."

"What guarantees can you make that the position will fall to you, and not to a relative of a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic?"

What's the guarantee?

To be honest, I can't guarantee anything.

If his father was not a marginal figure in the Ministry of Magic, he could be guaranteed fair competition.

but......

Percy smiled wryly.

He knew very well that he could not get ahead simply by working hard.

If you want to climb up in the Ministry of Magic, it all depends on the appreciation of your superiors.

Just when Percy was frustrated, Sebastian smiled and spoke.

"Percy, I admire you very much."

"You are very similar to me when I was young, with the same clear goals and ambitions."

"After you graduate, I can help you become a high-ranking official in the Ministry of Magic."

"But you have to agree to my conditions."

"Would you like to hear it?"

......
