Chapter 233: The Order of the Second Class of the Order of the Merlin Regiment (10,000 Words Big Chapter, Ask for Subscription)
Placing a conspicuous silver metal ring on the wand is undoubtedly quite glaring to wizards.
Because every wand was designed with everything in mind.
Whether it's a special wood for the body of the staff or a special addition for the core of the staff, they are all tightly connected by magic to form a delicate balance.
So no one should make any additional decorations, carvings, or add a few decorations to the wand.
That would disrupt the coherence of the entire wand and eventually cause it to break.
Even a pure-blood family like Malfoy, who is both rich and likes to show off, their wands are no different from those of other wizards, and they all look very simple and unpretentious.
So when Snape pulled out his wand, everyone would notice the silver ring that was attached to the tip of the grip.
Soon, under the questioning of the other professors, he quickly showed what the purpose of the equipment, known as the "Staff Ring", was.
In just a few days, Zuo Si has received orders from Principal Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Flitwick.
Dumbledore, in particular, directly offered a high price of five thousand gold gallons and asked him to make it according to the maximum magic cap.
You don't have to ask to know that the headmaster wants to use this thing as a hole card against Voldemort, and use it at the most critical time to achieve the effect of one-hit kill.
Under Snape's introduction to the Potions Master, many wealthy families and individuals in the wizarding world came to Hogwarts just to customize an exclusive "Staff Ring" from Zuosi.
In addition to this, the Ministries of Magic of several countries have personally sent people to discuss the issue of cooperation.
After all, whether it is the technique of making scrolls, or the spell storage device that can be equipped on a wand, it can greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the Aurors.
In a way, the Aurors are the equivalent of the police and the military of the wizarding world.
Even the most critical Ministry of Magic won't save money on this.
Eventually, on Halloween's Eve, the International Confederation of Wizards and the Wizengamot jointly established a review panel that finally recognized the knowledge and skills in Zuosi's notebook.
This means that it can be published as a book after a simple addition and polish.
Eventually, at Dumbledore's suggestion, Zuo Si chose to cooperate with Silent Ran Books, which had published countless Hogwarts textbooks.
Around the same time, Connelly Fudge, the British Minister of Magic, also appeared at Hogwarts with a large prize and a second-class medal of the Order of Sir Merlin, as well as a contract worth up to 100,000 gold Galleons.
It includes the purchase of "Staff Rings" for the Aurors and Ministry of Magic officials, as well as five public classes dedicated to the art of making magic scrolls.
Looking at this old man who was very kind in appearance and attitude, and always kept smiling, Zuo Si immediately touched his chest with one hand and owed slightly.
"Thank you very much for taking the trip to bring me honors and bonuses, as well as contracts that will allow me to earn a lot of money."
"Hahahaha! That's what I'm supposed to do. You must know that these inventions of yours have given us the face of the British Minister of Magic. Wizards all over the world now know that there is a genius who can lead the next era at Hogwarts. β
Cornelius Fudge laughed and patted Zuo Si on the shoulder as a sign of closeness and encouragement.
As for the reason, it is also very simple.
Zuo Si was too young, too small to threaten his current position, which was completely different from the respected Dumbledore.
By the time Zuo Si grew up, Cornelius Fudge would have already retired or died of old age in his own home.
Therefore, he is very willing to promote and give some help to this kind of student who can not only bring political achievements to himself, but also cannot become the Minister of Magic in a short period of time, even if his reputation is resounding.
"It's all thanks to the effective work you've led. Without the annual funding from the Ministry of Magic, a young Muggle-born wizard like me would not have been able to come to Hogwarts. Zuo Si complimented quietly.
He's obviously very good at dealing with this kind of guy who has a lot of vanity and is very obsessed with power and wealth.
In just a few words, the expression on the face of the British Minister of Magic was like a blooming chrysanthemum, and his mouth was even more grinning to the root of his ears.
"Look, what a polite child. If only my grandson could be half smart and sensible. Cornelius Fudge sighed slightly.
Umbridge, who is a confidant and dogleg, immediately chimed in: "You're absolutely right. It seems that our little genius not only has an enviable talent in the field of magic, but is also very humble and likable. I think in a few years, when he's older, he can replace the Order of the Second Class with the Order of the Second Class. β
"Well, you have a point. Albus, what do you think? β
Cornelius Fudge asked Dumbledore for advice in a slightly humble-hearted tone.
From this move, it is not difficult to see that he is actually very nervous and scared when facing the greatest wizard of our time.
After all, the position of Minister of Magic was given to him by the other party on his own initiative, which inevitably made Cornelius Fudge feel that he was a head shorter than Dumbledore.
What's more, who at his age doesn't know Albus Dumbledore's legendary life and what he has done.
"You're the Minister of Magic, just make your own decisions, I don't have any other opinions." Dumbledore replied disappreciatively.
Hearing this, Cornelius Fudge was visibly relieved, and immediately said with a smile: "In that case, let's wait a few years for the Ministry of Magic to take the lead in the second application." By the way, I heard that Harry Potter also enrolled at Hogwarts this year. Where is he? β
Dumbledore pointed to the distant pitch and replied, "Harry and his friends are practicing flying. He's a very talented Seeker, and if you stay a few days longer you should be able to see a very good Quidditch match. β
"Forget it. I'm very busy, and Barty Crouch left me with a lot of mess to deal with. Cornelius Fudge decisively declined the invitation.
Unlike most ordinary wizards who see Harry Potter as a savior, he knows very well that it is impossible for a baby to truly defeat a wizard as powerful as Voldemort, and there must be secrets in the middle that he does not know.
Therefore, the attitude towards this "savior" is also very complicated, not only to ensure that he can live safely, but also not to want this immortal boy to be influenced and controlled by Dumbledore all the time.
Therefore, under the influence of this psychology, Cornelius Fudge subconsciously chose to escape.
In this way, he and his group left in a hurry after a short stay at Hogwarts.
Before leaving, only one Auror was left to communicate with Zuo Si to ensure that the "staff rings" ordered by the Ministry of Magic could be delivered in the shortest possible time.
"What do you think of the Minister of Magic?"
After Cornelius Fudge was completely gone, Dumbledore suddenly asked an inexplicable question.
"Neither good nor bad, a qualified bureaucrat who is a little fond of vanity and greedy for power, that's all." Zuo Si gave his own evaluation bluntly.
In his eyes, Fudge's image was nowhere near as bad as it was portrayed in the original book, and at least until Voldemort's return, the other party had faithfully fulfilled his duty.
In other words, Cornelius Fudge is better suited to be a peacetime Minister of Magic, but his performance in wartime is a little less sluggish.
Dumbledore smiled and nodded, "Precisely." That's why I was willing to give him the position of Minister of Magic in the first place. There is nothing better than a gentle and humane man to heal the British wizarding world that was scared by Voldemort and put everyone at risk. And I figured out that you seem to be pretty good at dealing with people like Fudge, don't you? β
"Dear Headmaster, you only need to know a little about the bureaucracy of the Muggle world to understand that people like Fudge are almost everywhere in England." Zuo Si sneered and responded. "Also, I highly recommend you to watch a political satire and humor drama called 'Yes, Prime Minister.' Trust me, with your age and experience, you'll laugh so hard you don't know if you read it. β
"TV series?"
Dumbledore touched the beard on his chin, an expression of interest appearing on his face.
"That's right. You can think of it as a kind of stage play in which professional actors play various roles and are closer to the real thing. All you need to do is buy a TV, a VCR, and rent a cassette of the TV series in the store, and you can enjoy it in a Muggle World inn or guesthouse. β
Zuo Si is meaningful, and gives specific operation steps.
When he first came into this world, he once saw a promotional poster for this classic British drama in the window of a shop that rented video tapes on London Street.
So I know that in this magical version of the earth, there are many things that have a lot of similarities with my real hometown.
"Sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe I can try it out in the summer at the end of the semester next year.
Finally, congratulations on receiving the Order of the Merlin Order of the Second Class.
You know, this is the highest honor in the wizarding world.
It seems that I should also give you a special contribution to the school award.
Because your groundbreaking spell storage technology has really pushed the wizarding world a big step forward.
Oh, and by the way, this is a sample of the book from Silent Ran Book Publishing House, and it is also a special gift for you, the author. β
With that, Dumbledore pulled out a tome from his desk drawer with the cover of "Teach You to Store Spells by HandsβVolume 1" printed on the cover.
Due to the magic scroll technique involved in the preparation of special inks, the handling of parchment, and other necessary tools, the book looks exceptionally thick and heavy.
Spells are also used on the pages of the book to allow some of these highly complex steps to be presented in the form of unreal images to the reader, making it easier for them to observe and imitate.
Zuo Si took it in his hand and flipped through it, and soon showed a look of satisfaction: "Silent Book Publishing House has done a great job, reflecting several key details. By the way, how much does this book sell for the outside world? β
"Twenty-five Galleons."
Without hesitation, Dumbledore gave an exact number.
Although it is slightly more expensive than other books, it is also a price that most wizards can afford.
What's more, after learning the techniques, wizards can also sell them by crafting spell scrolls that they are best at.
The rarer and more powerful the spell scroll, the higher the price.
In addition to this, the reel trade will greatly facilitate communication between the wizarding world.
As a visionary wizard, Dumbledore was more than happy to see such a development that would benefit everyone.
"That is, if nothing else, I will soon be the billionaire with a million-dollar fortune?" Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Even though there aren't many wizards in this world, it's easy to find tens of thousands to buy his books.
In particular, the emerging scroll-making process is definitely quite new and fashionable for the wizarding world, which is always lifeless.
It is foreseeable that it will become a hot topic for a long time to come.
"What are you going to do with the money?" Dumbledore asked with interest.
If it's another first-year student, you might have to worry about the other party's squandering.
But Zuo Si had always shown maturity far beyond his peers, so he was curious to see what the boy would do with all that money, or if it would go straight to Gringotts' vault.
Zuo Si pretended to think for a moment, and quickly responded, "First of all, I need a house, a castle or forest house like one that doesn't have ordinary Muggles around, so that I can conduct all kinds of interesting magical experiments.
Secondly, I need to buy a lot of expensive and rare materials, try to craft more and more powerful magic items, and learn from Professor Snape how to concoct the highest quality potions.
Finally, and most importantly, I'm going to buy some magical beasts to keep in my home and see if I can breed all sorts of interesting new species.
"The First Evolution"
The world of magic is so varied, I wanted to know all about it, not just what I learned in school. β
"Know all about the wizarding world? That's a really great personal goal. There was a hint of approval in Dumbledore's eyes.
He was visibly glad that Zuo Si didn't focus on power, domination, or the dark arts, but instead looked at and understood the wizarding world from a larger perspective.
"By the way, I've heard that Hagrid, the Hogwarts hunting warden, knows a lot about magical beasts, and can often buy interesting creatures, such as a big dog with three heads. If you don't mind, can I ask him to help buy some fun magical animals? Zuo Si took the opportunity to make a request.
After all, Hagrid was able to secretly raise dangerous creatures like Aragog, the eight-eyed spider when he was still in school, and this year he had no trouble getting three-headed dogs, dragon eggs, and later miraculous beasts such as Hippogriffs and Winged Beasts, and Fried Snails.
More than half of these things are dangerous species that are prohibited by the Ministry of Magic.
Not to mention that he has publicly stated on more than one occasion that he wants to raise a Kemera beast that has left a great name in Greek mythology.
It is an extremely bloodthirsty and violent creature with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a dragon's tail.
To date, only one person in the history of wizards has ever successfully hunted it, which shows how difficult it can be.
Its danger is much higher than that of various varieties of fire dragons.
This can be seen from the Ministry of Magic's attribution of their classification.
Even an egg of Kemera is a Class A prohibited trade item.
Therefore, Zuo Si believes that Hagrid must have some illegal smuggling channels, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to buy these dangerous creatures and their eggs again and again.
Dumbledore smiled and nodded, "Of course! I think Hagrid would be more than happy to talk to you about Fantastic Beasts. But promise me, don't let him get those creatures that are too dangerous. β
This should not be said to me, but to Hagrid. As far as I can tell, he seems to have had an inexplicable fondness and obsession with big, fierce creatures. β
After saying this, Zuo Si stuffed a few bags of gold gallons into the satchel he carried with him, then picked up the medals and book samples and turned around and left the principal's office.
Due to the relationship between this world and the Traceless Stretching Charm, space-type magic items are quite common.
Despite the strict control of the Ministry of Magic, it is expressly forbidden to use it for private purposes.
Only things that have passed registration, such as school suitcases, family tents, etc., can use this spell to expand the interior space.
But there is basically not a single wizard who can really strictly abide by it.
And the bureaucrats of the Ministry of Magic are also well aware of this, and they usually turn a blind eye and don't cause too much disturbance and movement.
In Dumbledore's eyes, the small satchel on Zuo Si's body was a prop that had been expanded by the Traceless Stretching Charm.
But he didn't know that the magic principle of the dimensional bag was fundamentally different from the Traceless Stretching Spell.
The latter is a false space maintained by spells, and once affected by the dismantling of magic or the cessation spell, it will instantly expire in minutes, and then the contents will fly out in one go.
In contrast, the dimensional bag is a bit more stable.
Unless it's a terrifying spell like the Great Crack that indiscriminately tears magical items and magic protection, generally speaking, things like dismantling magic and stopping spells will never have any effect.
So everything important, Zuo Si will carry it in the satchel he carries.
Only the less important things are thrown into the chest that has been blessed with the Traceless Stretching Charm.
Walking out of the principal's office, he did not go to the hall on the first floor, but to the room on the right side of the third floor that was specially allocated to him for some experiments.
As soon as she entered the door, Hermione, who had been waiting for a long time, noticed the purple medal, and immediately couldn't help but exclaim: "Second Class Order of the Merlin Regiment? Has the Ministry of Magic finally awarded you this honor? β
"Well, it came with the bonus."
Zuo Si casually threw it like garbage on the table in the corner of the room, and he didn't even have the interest to take a second look.
Because in his eyes, honor is a trick of the lake, except for a little more popularity, it has no practical effect at all.
Especially in the world of magic, no one dares to despise wizards who truly wield great power, even if they don't have any honor.
And those clowns who have obtained a string of titles through other means will not really be respected no matter how much honor they have (yes, you're talking about you, Gilderoy Lockhart).
Hermione undoubtedly noticed Zuosi's attitude towards the Order of the Order of the Merlin, and asked suspiciously, "Aren't you happy at all?" β
"Happy? Why should I rejoice in such a worthless thing?
You know? In today's wizarding world, anyone in a position of power can find a way to get themselves a medal of the Order of the Merlin.
In my opinion, this thing is no different from many of the awards in the Muggle world, it is just a vanity fair in disguise.
It's best to have nature, and it doesn't matter if you don't.
Because when your strength, power, or wealth reaches a certain level, these things will naturally come to you.
Okay, let's get back to today. β
With that, Zuo Si took out his wand and waved it gently, placing the precious metals in the huge glass jars not far away on the table one by one.
The gold and silver had been soaked in potion for a long time, and they were emitting a slightly pungent smell right now.
You don't have to ask to know that they are the basic materials used to make "rod rings".
"But I've heard that an honor is a recognition of someone's achievements and contributions."
Hermione said as she quickly raised her wand to cast a cleansing charm on the metal blocks, trying to shape them into different shapes with transfiguration magic.
Zuo Si responded with a smile: "This explanation is actually correct to some extent.
But the problem is that you are ignoring the most crucial part of this, which is who has the right to give honors to others.
Is this selection really fair?
There are no personal emotions or interests?
The answer is clearly no.
Because everyone, including you and me, is subjective, and it is impossible to be truly fair.
Therefore, all institutions that give honors to others will inevitably eventually become tools manipulated by powerful people.
With the corruption and depravity of the award agency, sooner or later, those shady deals will be exposed to the public.
At that time, the honor they conferred will also be questioned, and instead of becoming a kind of capital, it will become a burden.
My sincere advice is that you do not take honor too seriously, but rather as a by-product of success and the spice of life.
What's more, honor represents past success, not future success.
If you accidentally indulge in the kind of praise, praise and compliment from the outside world, it will not be long before you will completely lose yourself and become a poor creature who is afraid of failure, lacks initiative, and will only be self-contained. β
Undoubtedly, this view of honor gave Hermione a shock that cannot be described in words.
She couldn't imagine how Zuo Si could have such a vision at this age, as if she could easily see through the traps that even adults would unknowingly indulge in.
Especially the terrible sanity that will not be affected by any external factors, which is exactly the same as that of Headmaster Dumbledore.
"Don't get distracted! I've just received an order from the Ministry of Magic, and it's a lot of work today. β
Seeing that the girl was a little distracted, Zuo Si immediately reminded her softly.
"Ahh Embrace...... I'm sorry. β
Hermione snapped out of her thoughts, quickly adjusting her mind and focusing on the matter at hand.
She didn't want to lose her job as an assistant that countless upperclassmen were jealous of.
After all, by Zuo Si's side, you can learn all kinds of knowledge and techniques all the time.
On top of that, you can get a generous bonus for every order you complete.
The Wesley twin brothers, who are also members of Gryffindor House, are about to go crazy with envy, and have been asking when Zuo Si will recruit again.
They are even willing to act as "guinea pigs" if the need arises.
As both of them entered a state of extreme concentration, one after another customized "staff rings" were made.
Hermione is responsible for the processing of the material, and will shape it into various forms according to the customer's requirements, or add some family advice and inscriptions.
Zuosi is responsible for manufacturing the core and critical functional part of this storage device.
They worked from one o'clock in the afternoon to more than ten o'clock, and only barely completed seven.
Looking at these equipment, which have only recently been sought after by a large number of wizards, Hermione subconsciously wiped the sweat on her forehead and said in a slightly emotional voice: "It's really not easy, I finally drove out all the previous orders." Starting tomorrow, we will be able to make the orders placed by the Ministry of Magic. However, since the number of orders is too large, I would recommend hiring two more people. β
"Do you have any good candidate recommendation code?"
Zuo Si put each of the seven finished products into a pre-prepared box, and then used a magic wand to engrave the customer's name and address on each box.
I'm going to wait until tomorrow morning to hand it over to the owls at Hogwarts for delivery.
"I think George and Fred are a good choice. Unlike the fool Ron, both of them are very smart, and they do very well in several major courses, even doing a lot of gizmos in private. On top of that, the twins are very, very eager to make money, so they will obey orders 100 percent. β
Without thinking, Hermione said the best person in her mind.
"Yes, that's them. Remember to bring these two living treasures early tomorrow morning. Zuo Si agreed without even thinking about it.
On the one hand, because he really liked the twins, who were always optimistic, and on the other hand, George and Fred were really talented enough to provide some inspiration.
"Then it's settled, I'll tell them the good news when I get back to the Gryffindor common room later."
With that, Hermione picked up her wand and cast a cleaning charm on herself, removing the sweat and the dirt from the accident.
Just as she picked up her backpack and was about to push open the door and walk out, she suddenly heard Zuo Si's voice behind her.
"Wait! I happen to have a sample of "Teach You to Store Spells by Yourself - Volume 1" sent by the publisher, and it would be a waste to put it with me anyway, so I'll give it to you as a gift. β
"Give it to me?!"
Hermione immediately stopped, her eyes revealing infinite surprise.
Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "That's right." It should be my recognition of your excellent work and serious learning attitude during this time. Don't be complacent, because with your intelligence and talent, you should be able to do better. β
"Thank you...... Thank you. Could you please sign me on the first page of this book? Hermione asked in a whisper, blushing with excitement.
"Absolutely."
Zuo Si raised his wand and slid it gently across the first page of the book.
Moment!
A line of glittering flowers appears out of thin air, and changes color depending on the intensity of the ambient light.
You don't have to ask to know that this signature-like magic is a spell he transformed from the Zero Ring Arcane Arcane Seal.
But unfortunately, due to the huge difference in the magical environment of the two worlds, the overall transformation is very difficult.
So far, Zuo Si has only succeeded in transforming a few of the commonly used arcane magic from Ring Zero to Ring Three.
However, Hermione was keenly aware of something, and asked in a surprised tone, "Is this a new spell?" β
"Sort of. There's no need to make a fuss. In fact, at Hogwarts, a lot of students from the third or fourth year up invent some messy spells, including the Wesley twins you mentioned. Zuo Si put away his wand and shrugged his shoulders disappreciatively.
In a world without any rules or restrictions, the threshold for creating magic and spells is so low that no Faeron arcane spellcaster could have imagined.
Coupled with wands, a device that can enhance the perception and control of magical powers, there are many injurious but insulting spells circulating among Hogwarts students.
For example, spells that make front teeth bigger, spells that make people dance wildly with their legs uncontrollably, and spells that don't stop farting, etc......
It is estimated that the malicious element in it may not be as high as the mischief component.
"George and Fred were able to invent spells?!" Hermione's mouth grew in disbelief.
Because in her impression, this pair of living treasures should belong to the kind of guy who doesn't do anything all day long, and just wants to make money, explore, and have fun.
It's quite puzzling to get good grades in a few courses that you excel at, not to mention something like inventing a spell that sounds "high-end".
Zuo Si smiled and nodded, "Yes." Incredible, isn't it? In fact, one of the children of the Wesley family has very good talent and a smart mind, at least among his peers. Ron, of course, is an exception. β
Poof!
Hermione couldn't hold back her laughter.
It can't be helped, who made Wesley's youngest son behave more than a little worse than his older brothers.
After saying goodnight to each other, the girl quickly picked up the heavy book and turned back to the Gryffindor common room.
When she said the order and walked in, she suddenly found Harry and Ron not resting, but sitting by the fireplace and whispering something.
Out of curiosity, Hermione immediately stepped forward and asked, "It's so late, why don't you go to bed yet, what are you doing here?" Don't tell me you've made a pact with Malfoy again for a wizarding duel at midnight. β
"Hey, hey! Of course not. That Malfoy guy wouldn't dare act rashly until we figured out how many spell scrolls we had on hand. In fact, since Halloween is just around the corner, we're talking about how to spend it. Ron replied with a smirk.
"According to the older students, Hogwarts has a big dinner on Halloween every year. Not only will there be a lot of good food, but there will also be corresponding decorations, and occasionally there will be an invited orchestra to perform. Harry added with great interest.
Since he didn't have any decent holidays since he was a child, he inevitably looked forward to the upcoming Halloween.
Seeing that these two guys were still out of tune as always, Hermione couldn't help but sigh slightly: "Alasβthen you two will continue to sit here and imagine Halloween, I'm tired today, I have to take a shower and get some sleep." β
"You're going to give Thus a hand again? This is the fourth time this week, right? Is it really necessary to work so your schedule every day? Ron asked, puzzled.
"First of all, I learn a lot from working as an assistant. Secondly, for every order completed, Soth will give me a bonus of as little as a few tens or as many as hundreds of Galleons. Swap for any Hogwarts senior, and they're sure to do their best as I did. Plus, your older brothers are salivating over this job. β
As she said this, Hermione lifted her chin slightly, revealing a proud and proud expression.
"What? Tens of Galleons, hundreds of Galleons! Where did he get that much money for you? Also, what about that order? β
Ron was instantly stunned, and he didn't even notice that the pumpkin juice in his hand was spilled on his body.
He had thought that the girl's so-called assistant work was actually working for nothing, just like many Hogwarts students formed their own interest groups.
"O my stupid brother!
Didn't you know that since the Daily Prophet and Wizarding Weekly reports, many wizards from all over the world have turned to visit South?
He can also make something called a "wand ring", which can store a spell to put on a wand.
It only takes a thought to trigger a dangerous situation.
So a lot of rich people and pure-blood families came to him for customization. β
With a familiar voice, George was the first to run in from the outside and put his arms around Ron's neck.
Although the latter desperately tried to break free, it was a pity that his strength was too small, and he was not at all an opponent to go to Quidditch training for his brothers every once in a while.
Fred also sat down next to Ron, and teased in a half-joking tone: "Dear Miss Granger, don't waste your tongue talking to poor Ron about this, with his little brain, he can't understand what a concept of tens or even hundreds of gold gallons is." β
"That's right! Ron can't even pull out a gold Galleon right now. George immediately followed up with the mending.
In the blink of an eye, Ron was flushed with his two twin brothers, looking angry and inferior.
Unfortunately, no one in the room noticed his predicament, and even Harry subconsciously ignored his best friend's reaction.
Seeing that she happened to meet George and Fred, Hermione immediately sent an invitation to the two: "Are you interested in being Soth's assistant together?" β
"Of course! We are very interested! β
Fred hurriedly nodded desperately, as if he was afraid that he would miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity if he answered too late.
George, on the other hand, used his talent for comedy by putting on a fly rubbing his hands, and in a very humble tone, he tentatively asked, "How much salary or bonus can we get?" Can you have a tenth of yours? β
Hermione rolled her eyes angrily, "Don't make a fuss." In the beginning, you can only take one-third of my income, and when you become proficient, you can get the same bonus as me. β
"OhβMerlin's beard! We're going rich! George jumped to his feet and cheered.
"Hooray! Great, noble, omnipotent, omniscient Miss Granger! Please allow the most loyal servants to kiss your boots. β
With that, Fred really lay on the ground and wanted to kiss the girl's instep.
This move instantly frightened Hermione to retreat again and again, and shouted, "Enough! If you do this again, I'll be disqualified. β
βOKοΌ OKοΌ From now on, you are our master, let us go east and never west. β
"When can we get to work? And what is the content? β
The twins sandwiched the girl between the left and the right, and kept asking.
The three of them talked for about twenty minutes before they went back to sleep in the boys' and girls' dormitories.
As for Harry and Ron, who were left to dry, they showed helpless expressions, and could only follow back to the bedroom to rest.
Early the next morning, George and Fred, who had not slept much after a night of excitement, appeared in the room assigned to Zuo Si by the school with two dark circles under their eyes.
Noticing the mental state of the twin brothers, Zuo Si immediately asked in an uncertain tone, "Should you two go on a night trip again last night?" β
"How could it be! We just got too excited, and we just lost a little bit of sleep. George hurriedly explained.
"Well, hopefully that doesn't affect your productivity. Hermione, tell them about the work of the assistants, we have at least ten staff rings to complete today. β
Zuo Si straightforwardly left the two of them to the girl to be in charge of management, and he began to take out tools to prepare for the inscription.
Soon, with Hermione's explanation and demonstration, George and Fred quickly understood what they needed to do.
After a while, they entered a very focused state of work, producing one semi-finished product after another.
Probably due to their age, their magic level was much higher than that of Hermione in the first year, so the work efficiency of these two novices was not much slower than that of the skilled latter.
In addition to the class time, by the time I had to rest in the evening, I had completed fifteen of them.
Of course, the price was that George and Fred were tired like dead dogs, and Hermione looked like she had just been fished out of the water, her clothes were soaked with sweat and stuck to her skin very uncomfortable.
"We did a good job today. Here, this is a bonus, you can take it and divide it yourself. β
Zuo Si did not hesitate to throw the bag of gold gallons he had prepared in advance on the table.
With a loud bang, George, who was still paralyzed on the ground like a dog sticking out his tongue like a dog a second, jumped up from the ground reluctantly, rushed straight to the table, and poured out more than 300 gold galleons inside.
Immediately after, his whole body seemed to have been immobilized, and the muscles above and below his body were tense and stiff.
only
There are eyes that reveal a scorching glow that melts everything.
Fred on the side was not bad, and jumped up and rolled on the golden galleon, and at the same time let out a creepy laugh.
"Hahahaha! It's Kim Galleon! It's all Golden Galleons! Not even a silver sike and a bronze nat! Oh, my God! I feel like I'm in a dream right now! β
"Fred, give me a hard time."
Coming to his senses, George brought his face to his twin brother.
"Willing to serve, brother."
Without saying a word, Fred raised his arm and gave the former a resounding slap in the face.
Syllable!
After the crisp sound, George spun around in place several times, and a palm-shaped handprint appeared on his face.
"Deceived Kangxi"
But instead of being annoyed, he saved Fred and began to laugh with the other party.
I have to say that with such two living treasures, even Hermione felt that her mental fatigue had recovered a lot at once, and covered her mouth and snickered secretly.
As for Zuosi, he made up his mind that Voldemort or other Death Eaters would never be allowed to kill the Wesley twins.
