Wizards have randomly strange plants that are hidden and protected by wizards, and I'm going to go ahead and assume that the farmers have superior magical food breeding methods for regular food, removing the need for processing as the muggle modern world has adopted to feed the Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13395160315833687642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613387965721174471.post-47907791524314071332016-07-30T07:01:50.019-04:002016-07-30T07:01:50.019-04:00If I were a wizerd I would accio summon gold from ...If I were a wizerd I would accio summon gold from rivers and just buy real estate like crazy.or use magic as labour saving to mill timber for profitdorrellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15443422413861572657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613387965721174471.post-70248509752727563702016-07-30T07:01:22.003-04:002016-07-30T07:01:22.003-04:00If I were a wizerd I would accio summon gold from ...If I were a wizerd I would accio summon gold from rivers and just buy real estate like crazy.or use magic as labour saving to mill timber for profitdorrellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15443422413861572657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-613387965721174471.post-18339241587078444852014-09-05T13:32:06.518-04:002014-09-05T13:32:06.518-04:00Thank you, thank you!

I hadn't given their economy the thorough examination like this, but I didn't understand why they couldn't just conjure up material things, eliminating the inequality. Sure, wizards could not magically make coins or money of value, but why not turn old robes and hand-me-down clothes into new ones?

Thus suggests that those up high are aware of the existence of wizards butare compelled to keep the secret. I think this suggests that the wizards are actually in charge.
