Chapter 521 Offa United Company
Levin's words caused Hermione to fall into deep thought for a moment, and she felt a little ashamed.
She has always had a sense of psychological superiority when facing the "old antiques" in the wizarding world because she adheres to Muggle's "advanced" ideas.
If you think about it carefully, this sense of superiority is essentially the same as the sense of superiority wizards have when looking at Muggles.
She is indeed a bit arrogant like this.
However, Levin's words were not over yet.
He took a deep breath and continued: "In fact, the slavery contract is only a last resort. If these primitive races want to enter civilization, pain and struggle are inevitable. But this approach can help them Integrate into our wizarding world faster. In fact, Hagrid doesn't like this method as much as you do, but he can't find a better way.
Levin paused, his eyes flashing with longing for the future: "When our group develops and expands, these giants who have learned to abide by order will play an important role in our industry, and they can serve as guards, bodyguards, etc. Hermione, If you think about it, creatures that were once considered chaotic and dangerous are now able to bring safety and order to our society. What a wonderful transformation it will be."
As the two of them walked forward in the camp, they saw a group of giants holding huge glue sticks. Levin added: "The reason why I asked them to abandon the familiar sticks and giant axes and use finger tigers, batons and other equipment is also In order to make them appear more civilized at work. Although such a change is small, it is an important step for them to integrate into society. One day, we will let these giants reverse the public's stereotypes of them, so that they can be like 643 Hagrid Walk freely on the streets without being discriminated against and excluded.
Hermione's doubts gradually dissipated as she listened to Levin's explanation.
She began to realize that Levin did take advantage of these giants, but everything he did was for the future of these giants.
Although she sympathizes with the plight of these giants, she also knows that sometimes sacrifices have to be made for the greater good.
"Where is Hagrid?" As the two were walking on the road, Levin suddenly asked a young wizard wearing work uniform.
The staff member raised his head and recognized at a glance that the person in front of him was their big boss Ye Wen.
He immediately showed a warm smile, pointed in a direction not far away and said: "Here, Mr. Levin, Hagrid should be at Graup's place now. He likes to visit his brother when he is free."
Levin looked in the direction he pointed and saw that the other side of the camp was the living area of the giants.
Some young giants were playing with a special giant rubber ball in the middle of the paved square, and their laughter echoed in the air.
Levin crossed the square and came to one of the houses around the square.
In the room, Hagrid, Grawp and the old giant Moholt were sitting together.
He heard Moholt boasting to Hagrid: "Hagrid, look, Graup can now use a fork. He has made great progress."
When Hagrid heard Moholt's words, a happy smile appeared on his face.
He stretched out his broad palm, stood up on tiptoes, and gently patted Graup's waist, his voice (bjdc) filled with admiration: "Good job, Graup, you are such a good boy.
Levin's eyes fell on the broken pink umbrella next to Graup, which was lying quietly next to the huge stone pillar where Graup was sitting.
Graup, who has lost all his hair, is wearing a huge leather hat and looks a little funny. From time to time, he stretched out his hand to reach for Hagrid's umbrella, but every time Hagrid took the umbrella back first.
"Oh no, Graup, good boy, you can't touch this." Hagrid carried the umbrella behind him, with a hint of pampering and helplessness in his tone.
Graup watched Hagrid carry the umbrella behind his back and roared with dissatisfaction.
At this time, Moholt took out a silver stainless steel fork that was far larger than usual and handed it to Graup. Grawp's attention was instantly diverted. He took the fork and began to eat the extra large cake with it, no longer looking at Hagrid and the broken pink umbrella.
After Levin revealed the mystery of the Chamber of Secrets and the haze of the year gradually dissipated, Hagrid's grievances were completely cleared and he regained the qualification to use the wand, so he has taken the wand out of the umbrella.
However, the umbrella that he once used to hide his magic wand and accompany him through difficult times was still carried by him habitually.
"Hagrid, Graup, Moholt, hello." Levin walked up and greeted him warmly.
Hagrid raised his head and saw the person coming, with a warm smile on his face: "Oh, it's Levin, and Hermione, you are here. Come in quickly, come in quickly."
The two of them followed Hagrid into the hut. Through the open door, he saw a huge slate bed placed in the huge bungalow, with thick animal skins scattered around it, and extra-large furniture placed around it, which looked primitive and elegant. And full of life.
When Moholt saw Levin coming, he instantly stood up from the stone bench with an expression of respect on his face.
With Levin's help, he was not only able to extend his life, but was also fortunate enough to witness the entire giant race gradually moving towards civilization. Levin's gratitude and respect were deeply imprinted in his heart.
Unlike other younger giants, Moholt did not participate in the training. Instead, he took on trivial but essential tasks such as cooking, cleaning and taking care of children with a group of equally wise old giants. They contribute to the progress of the giant race in their own way.
Levin and Hermione sat next to Hagrid, chatting with him about life in the reserve. At this time, Grawp next to him suddenly spoke, although his pronunciation was not standard and there was a slight stutter:
"Hagrid, fork...eat...?"
He awkwardly scooped up a ball of cake with his fork and raised it in front of Hagrid, almost touching Hagrid's nose.
However, Hagrid didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, he opened his mouth and took a big bite, with a smile of satisfaction and relief on his face, and encouraged: "Group, good boy, you said it very well.
The scene where the two were "brothers and brothers" really moved Hermione.
She finally truly understood the painstaking efforts behind Levin's excessive behavior.
After leaving Grawp's cabin, Levin and Hermione did not stop.
They left the giant's camp and walked through winding paths deep into the hinterland of the Isle of Man Reserve. This reserve is like a magical animal kingdom. Each creature has a habitat specially cultivated by tree spirits. The surrounding environment has been modified to adapt to their habits, like small ecological paradises. However, because of the Isle of Man The area is limited, and because there are so many types of magical creatures, this protected area also seems a bit crowded.
After a morning of careful inspection of the entire reserve, the sunshine has quietly shone on the Isle of Man.
Levin and Hermione walked into the staff restaurant of the reserve together, sat down at a table by the window, and enjoyed a sumptuous lunch made with ingredients grown in the reserve.
After the meal, the two came to a quiet lounge, and Levin took out the revised genius club industrial renovation plan.
Under Hermione's gaze, Levin touched the brochure with his wand, and the words "French Associates" appeared on the cover of the plan.
"[Copy into pairs]"
Levin tapped the plan lightly with his wand, and then, an identical plan appeared on the table.
Levin handed one of the copies to Hermione, who took the plan and read it carefully.
"Alfa United Company?" Hermione raised her head, a glimmer of confusion flashed in her eyes, "Is this the name of our new group?"
"That's right." Levin nodded and explained, "Since we are going to integrate various industries for group operations, we need to have a unified name. The Arcane and Magic Alliance not only represents our core business of arcane magic. The industrial advantage also symbolizes that we will unite the forces of all parties to jointly create a broader future."
Hermione listened to Levin's explanation and nodded slowly.
She is well aware of Levin's attainments in arcane magic and his grand vision for the future - to use arcane magic to transform the entire magical world. From this point of view, this name is indeed both appropriate and powerful.
"Concerning the group operation of Offa United Company, this is my revised detailed plan."
Levin spoke slowly, his voice revealing confidence and determination, "We will take Offa United Company as the core and be fully responsible for the industrial management of the genius club. Now, we already have our own TV station as a publicity platform, and we also invest In order to ensure the steady development of the company, I plan to add several key departments for overall management.
Hermione listened attentively to Levin's story and gently flipped the plan in her hand, then continued: "In the plan, you mentioned the establishment of a security department, a technology research and development department, a market development department, a business consolidation department, and a strategic investment department. These five main departments.”
"Yes, Hermione." Levin nodded, "Not only do these five departments each bear important responsibilities, but their personnel can cooperate and support each other during the operation process. This kind of cross-department collaboration , will be the key to the efficient operation of our company."
