Harry Potter's Bastard

Hermione is just an ordinary person, whether in the wizarding world or in the society of ordinary people, she is an ordinary person.

What is an ordinary person?

To put it bluntly, it is a person who has nothing to do with power and money. They did not have great wealth and no access to real power, which often means a narrow vision and a one-sided view of problems.

Hermione was like that. If it weren't for Solim, she wouldn't know why she would have become the director of the department at that time, and she would even feel that this was the reward of her efforts.

"You need positive change now," Solim said, "mindset, behavior, way of looking at things." "

"You've graduated, and the outside world is completely different from the Hogwarts you're used to, it's more complex and darker. If you really want to do something, whether it's good or bad, you need to make a change. "

"I know you're feeling bad right now, you think it's all because of Dumbledore and me, you think it's a handout, and life at Hogwarts gives you the illusion that you can succeed if you work hard. "

"Isn't it?" asked Hermione.

Hard work pays off—that was Hermione's belief. During her seven years at Hogwarts, she practiced and succeeded countless times.

Listen carefully in class, meticulously complete homework after class, review the knowledge she has learned long ago before the exam, and practice spells hard...... All the hard work is reflected in her list of achievements with an O'. This was Hermione's unwavering understanding.

"You think that as long as you work hard can succeed, I can't say it's completely wrong, only that it's not comprehensive. Solim asked, "Then I'll ask you, if you work hard, try hard, do you give it your all, can you become a wizard like Dumbledore, and do you think you can be like him, both in terms of personal strength and personal influence?"

Hermione opened her mouth, she wanted to say that she could do it, but common sense and her knowledge told her that she couldn't, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't match their headmaster in terms of personal strength and influence.

It was a veteran archsor, a great wizard who sublimated his soul without using any external force. This kind of talent doesn't mean that you can match it if you work hard. It's innate, it's born there, and it's not there in this life.

Hermione knew very well what it meant to be a great wizard, and she didn't have any confidence to be such a top wizard. Not to mention comparing herself to Dumbledore, Hermione knew that her talent for magic was not even comparable to Harry's.

"If it weren't for Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix, if it weren't for the friendship between me and you, to put it mildly, the greatest thing you could have achieved in your life at the Ministry of Magic would have been an office director, and Arthur. Weasley's previous fringe position in the Office of Abuse of Muggle Items. "

Hermione's face wasn't pretty.

"And how can you be sure that I'm going to do this?"

"Don't be naïve, Hermione. Society and school are different, not that you can do anything if you work hard. Solim said: "When you come out to mix, you must have strength and background." Umbridge's lazy toad still knows that he is pulling Selwyn's banner. "

"Don't be unconvinced, that's how it goes. Solim shrugged, "Especially in a place like the Ministry of Magic, the first thing people look at is your background, and with a background, you will see your ability to do things." "

"The background is the same thing as your all-O ultimate wizard certificate, a train ticket. That determines which carriage you sit in. Whether it is a luxuriously decorated VIP car, or an ordinary car with a bunch of people crowded together, or even exaggerated, some people can't even get into the car, so they can only hang outside the car. "

Hermione was expressionless, apparently unaware of Solim's sneering joke.

"You're lucky to have Dumbledore to endorse you, and me...... It's no exaggeration to say that the whole magic now depends on my face. "

"Because you're in charge of overseeing communication between the Ministry of Magic and Muggles, you can make their communication illegal with a single word. Hermione looked at him with complicated eyes.

"That's right," Solim said with a snap of his fingers, "and that's something you've never been exposed to at Hogwarts—power." "

"But I've been a prefect—"

"Hah! What do you think the prefect has to deduct points from others? Or give a small report to the professors? You have always had a good memory, and you don't remember the rule that demerit points only count if the dean has no objections, right? Although the deans rarely use it, that doesn't mean that the prefect has the power-"

"It's the same with the Ministry of Magic, right? Like the prefects, they've never had real power. "

"Exactly, otherwise Scrimgeour wouldn't have been running around to pay you. Ever since the pure-bloods were purged, the Ministry of Magic has been cut off from its financial resources, a department that doesn't even have a money bag, what power do you think it can have?" Solim snorted, "With the cooperation with the Muggles and the currency exchange business at Gringotts, the Ministry of Magic has been largely free from the intervention of the Presbyterians when it comes to money. "

"So what do you think I should do? If I do become a Muggle Thing Cooperative Division...... Message from the Director. "Hermione wasn't mentally ready to manage an emerging, important department. She felt like she had a lot to learn, but it looked like time was running out for her right now.

"You wouldn't be naïve to think," Solim grinned, thinking that Hermione really didn't know anything about it, "Scrimgeot would really let you have an idea, would you?"

"What do you mean?" asked Hermione. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"The most important thing for the Ministry of Magic now is how to reach an agreement with the Muggle government, and how and how to deepen the cooperation between the two sides. In other words, none of these things can be decided by one person, and the Ministry of Magic will inevitably set up a committee to discuss it in the Wizengamot, and all you can do is give advice, and you can't do anything else. "

Hermione frowned.

897 "You're saying I'm going to be a puppet like Secretary Fudge did before?"

"It's up to you. Spreading his hands, Solim said, "If you can't hold this position, it will naturally be vacated." To avoid this, you need to increase your own importance. "

"You can think about what would increase your voice in the position of Director of the Department of Cooperation on Muggle Matters. Solim began to follow his path.

"The ......right to speak" Hermione is not stupid, she just lacks the corresponding experience. Following this line of thought, she soon realized that in order not to be overlooked, she had to have a large enough number of supporters within the Ministry of Magic, but also some influence on the side of the Muggle government.

Hermione was not worried about the support within the Ministry of Magic, Kingsley, Tonks, Sirius, and Harry would all stand behind him, and Mr. Weasley was now also the head of the official department, and he would also support him as a fellow member of the Order of the Phoenix. Not only that, but Dumbledore's old friends in the Wizengamot would also be her potential supporters, not to mention the number of half-blood and Muggle-born wizards within the Ministry of Magic today......

In the end, Hermione didn't have a lot of supporters at the Ministry of Magic.

The problem lies with the Muggle government.

But the Granger family is just an ordinary family in ordinary society. Although her parents are both dentists and have a private practice, they have no political advantage in helping their daughter. []
