Pure Blood Glory at Hogwarts

Chapter 33 A Night Tour of Hogwarts



"You two want me to invest?"

Luke looked at Fred in surprise, he really didn't expect such an answer.

He did anticipate the twins' lack of money.After all, the Weasley family's difficult family situation is well-known in the entire pure-blood circle.

And the twins have a penchant for little inventions.Don't look at the gizmo they made later became popular in the school, and even later opened a big shop based on it.But don't forget that all small inventions will inevitably fail in the early stage.

Failure also requires material fees.

The current twins, not only are they poor and soul-stirring, they can only be said to be penniless.

Luke was ready to be smacked hard by the two of them.

Money is just a number to him.If a little money could be exchanged for the friendship of the twins, and even the entire Weasley family, Luke felt that it was not a loss at all.

To be honest, in the original book, after the war, as long as the Weasley family has a heart, they will be the new leader of the pure-blood family.

But he didn't expect that what Fred mentioned was investment.You must know that this is a completely different concept from selling the Marauder's Map for money.

This made Luke a little confused.

George knew that although he was similar to his brother in making pranks and gizmos, and was even better than his brother in dealing with some details, he was not as good as Fred in making general decisions.

So now, although he is puzzled, he is simply watching the conversation between the two.

Fred looked at Luke and nodded seriously.

Luke looked at Fred's firm eyes, was silent for a moment, and then said: "If you are willing to sell me the map, I can actually give you a price that you are satisfied with. In this way, you don't have to pay me any money." .You can have absolute autonomy over your business.”

Luke reminded Fred again that he has always liked the twins in the original book, and from the conversation and interview just now, the impression of the twins on Luke is quite good.

So he was willing to remind them on the other side, so as not to cause conflicts or estrangement over trivial matters such as money in the future.

After all, if he was unreasonably asked to withdraw later, then Luke would not be sure what he would do.

"I've thought about it, and I believe it would be a wiser choice to recruit you." Fred was also very straightforward, and immediately explained to Luke, "First, you have enough money, although you said you would The price we are satisfied with, but we are not sure how much money we will spend when we actually produce the finished product. Secondly, the influence of the surname Gunter is enough for us to avoid many troubles in business competition. Of course, That's something we'll think about after we graduate."

Fred was well aware of his family's reputation in the circle. If they really opened a store, some families would have given enough face to the word "pure blood" if they made trouble on their unknown faces.

"If there is anything else," Fred looked at Luke, who was a head shorter than himself, and said with a smile, "I think you can be trusted."

Luke felt a little flattered by such a sentence, and felt quite fortunate for his impromptu speech at dinner.

Those words may have really touched a certain point in Fred's heart.

Although the main purpose of that speech was to take a stand on the side of the professors, and to hook that Draco guy into his boat.But now it seems that the secondary goals of buying people's hearts, improving the impression, and finding similar people have all been more or less achieved.

"Of course I have no problem. It's just a little money. It's a trivial matter."

Luke didn't refuse any more, and then continued: "If you really invent something that is more popular, there is no need to wait until you graduate to open a store."

"The Lance family will send me some properties in a few days. It is estimated that there will be a few good shops in Diagon Alley. We can free up one to sell your inventions."

"If you are interested, you can manage the store for a long time after graduation. If you are not interested, you can also hire someone to take care of it. You can invent with peace of mind."

George and Fred were instantly overjoyed by Luke's words.You must know that the relatively good shops in Diagon Alley are expensive to rent, let alone buy them directly.

And Luke's words mean that they don't have to wait until graduation to make money on a large scale.As long as you toss out something that is not bad, you can put it on the shelves and make money immediately.In this way, the economic situation of the family can be improved soon.

George looked at his brother with some admiration. His idea was to sell the map, and then earn a sum of money as a fund for invention.But I didn't expect that my brother's move to attract investment would almost settle all the follow-up matters, and even advance their plans by a few years.

Fred himself did not expect that Luke could actually give such a big bargaining chip.

Only then did he suddenly realize that the person in front of him was not just the heir of the Gaunt family.He is the only one left in the Gunter family.All the money, a lot of money, can be freely disposed of.There is no need to consider whether adults will agree to this matter.

"For the follow-up distribution, the three people will share it equally." Luke doesn't care about this share distribution, but he still needs to make it clear.

Fred subconsciously wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Luke: "Don't refute, I trust you two's ability to make money, and... the extra money at 01:30 is meaningless to me .”

Fred and George were speechless at the words.

"Okay, then it's settled." Fred didn't intend to continue to be polite to this rich man, after all, their family really needed money.It is best to produce results this school year.In this way, Ginny will not need to use their leftover items when she goes to school next year, or Mom and Dad will squeeze out their meager savings again.

Among other things, a magic wand with seven Galleons is like water for Luke, but for the Weasley family, it has to be gritted.

"Let's sign a contract later, first lend me the map, I'm going to the Forbidden Forest to have a look."

Luke is not polite to the two of them anymore.Now that I have become the father of a rich man, I can be a little more arrogant!

Fred gave Luke the map in his hand, and then explained to Luke how to use the map.

In fact, they didn't tell Luke they knew it. "I solemnly promise that I will do no good." and "The mischief is over." These two mantras are also familiar.

Then he looked at the twins and asked suspiciously, "Where did you two plan to go?"

The twins looked at each other, then turned to Luke and said, "Now we're going to the Forbidden Forest."

Luke laughed dumbfoundedly, and then said.

"Then let's go together."
