Chapter 10 How to Do Things with Other People's Money
Looking at Theodore in front of him?? Abbot, Clark smiled.
The world is bustling, all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit, the ancients did not deceive me!
Theodore?? Abbo saw Clark smile, and the smile on his face grew brighter.
Elijah sitting on the side at this time?? Yaxley also opened his mouth, "Yes, Clarke, since you called us uncle, then as an uncle and uncle, we can't bully you, and our Yaxley family also supports a little bit of the money for building a dragon farm." ”
Of the three school board representatives, two of them opened their mouths, leaving only the skinny Darren?? Bock's face flushed, he actually wanted to get a piece of the pie after listening to Clark's story, after all, no one would have trouble with money.
But now that it is difficult to ride a tiger, he is embarrassed to give in to the young man Clark, so he can only bury his head and squeeze out a sentence in a sullen voice, "The Bock family abstained." ”
As for what was going on in his mind, of course no one would know.
So two to one, the decision is certain, the two old foxes set their eyes on Clark again, and now, it only depends on whether he knows how to be interested.
Facing the forced gaze of the two, Clarke's face showed a hesitant expression, as if he didn't want to share such a large piece of cake with others.
This made Theodore's heart lift, and then Elijah, who had been sitting, added, "Of course, this whole thing was initiated by the virtuous nephew, and the main person in charge must still be you, and our family is just counted as support, not meddling in specific things."
The water in the wizarding world is very deep, you are still too young, many people and families you can't grasp, and you also need us to escort you. ”
After saying this, Elijah regretted it, and he didn't know why he had suddenly said such threatening words in front of Dumbledore to his students. Or Jin Garon is too touching and messes up his mind!
However, his words seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back, and Clark had a bitter smile on his face, as if he had made a difficult decision.
"Since both of you said so, then I don't want to insist too much, hey...... So be it. ”
Elijah and Theodore both had heartfelt smiles on their faces, but then Clark spoke.
"But there are twelve seats on the school board, and the two uncles do this, what if the other school directors have opinions at that time?"
As soon as he said this, Darren, who had already given up?? Bock raised his head in surprise again, does this mean, is it preparing for rain and dew?
However, Clark's next sentence shatters his illusions.
"I don't think it's better to add a little more to the amount of the dragon farm I just said, and make up 15,000 gold galleons. My Puwit family gave three thousand, and the remaining ten thousand and twelve were divided into 12 parts, each with an investment of 1,000 gold gallons.
Except for the Bock family's abstention, which was given to the staff of Hogwarts. The remaining 11 investment quotas will be divided by the families represented by the 11 school directors, and if there are any abstentions, then the other families can take over, and if no one wants them, then our Puwit family will cover it all.
Of course, in this case, a special company will have to be set up to be responsible for the construction of the Hogwarts Dragon Farm, and the shares of this company, we, the Prewett family, will have to own 51%, and the remaining 49%, and then divide them according to the funds invested by each family, what do you think? ”
Hearing this solution from Clark, Theodore's face showed a look of hesitation again, and Elijah?? Yaxley pointed out unceremoniously, "In this way, the proportion of your Puwit family is too much!" It is equivalent to investing only three thousand gold galleons, which became seven thousand in an instant. ”
Clark smiled indifferently at his accusations, and was not annoyed, just talk about business, just talk about it.
"The reason why I want a 51% stake is also to have a say in the whole thing. After all, you are all my Clarke's elders, if there is no suppression of shares, can you listen to me? The most important thing to spend money on things is that there is only one voice, what if there are many people at that time, and things are bad?
Besides, the account is not calculated like this, and in the end, the money is all going to be invested in the Fire Dragon Industrial Park, and I can't get it.
And you uncles and uncles only need to invest and wait to collect the money, and I also need to find a special team to take care of this mess, hard work, time and technical costs, it is normal to occupy more shares.
If my uncles don't believe me, we can find a middleman or agency. ”
With that, Clark turned his gaze to Headmaster Dumbledore, who was silent next to him.
"For example, Headmaster Dumbledore and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, all this money is stored in the school, and the school is responsible for keeping and using it, and I am only responsible for running it, and I don't have direct contact with those golden gallons, so will you rest assured?
And I, Clarke, can also guarantee that the Puwit family will not participate in the dividends until the uncles and uncles have recovered the cost of the thousand gold Galleons you put in. ”
Clarke said so loudly that even Dumbledore couldn't help but nod, seeing that he was so conclusive, Elijah and Theodore couldn't say anything more, and temporarily agreed to his plan.
Since the matter of making money has been roughly decided, the two of them are afraid of long nights and dreams, so they got up and prepared to say goodbye and go to the other nine school directors, ready to discuss the investment amount with them.
As for the addition of another seat on the board of directors at Hogwarts, Clark did not mention it again, because he knew that once the construction of the dragon farm started, those school directors whose interests were tied to him would enthusiastically push him to sit in that position.
With the three school representatives disappearing behind the door, only Clark and Dumbledore were left in the room, and he knew that this should be the most difficult time.
However, Dumbledore didn't seem to be going to discuss what had just happened right away, but instead played a joke with him first.
"Nick wrote me a letter saying that he wanted to take you as a student and ask me to agree to your transfer to Beauxbatons, it seems that you have performed very well on this trip to France."
Every wrinkle on Dumbledore's face seemed to be smiling, and it seemed that Nick Lemay's letter made him very embarrassed.
Seeing that the headmaster was in a good mood, Clark also relaxed, but the next moment.
"But what you did just now may unleash a demon!"
Dumbledore's tone was calm, so that no one could hear the joy and anger, and Clarke had to raise his head, trying to see his inner thoughts through the other party's expression.
However, it didn't work, because Dumbledore still had a faint smile on his face, and his kind eyes seemed to be looking at his little grandson.
But Clark knew that this was just an illusion, and if his answer did not satisfy the other party, then the plan he had just discussed with the school board representatives might not be able to be discussed.
After all, Dumbledore, as the greatest wizard in the English wizarding world, has that influence.
