Hogwarts: Please graduate soon

To be honest, Wayne didn't expect that Dumbledore would actually know that Gryffindor's sword was in his hand only now.

He thought that after the Sorting Hat returned, Old Deng would ask.

However, this also showed from the side how relieved Lao Deng was about him, which still made Wayne feel quite comfortable.

"No wonder you and the Sorting Hat get along so well."

Dumbledore smiled helplessly. These two guys talked in the same way.

"Mr. Lawrence, I only found out today, so is the sword on your body?"

Wayne didn't speak, but opened his palms, and the sword appeared out of thin air in his hands.

He took off the gorgeous gem-studded scabbard, and the sharp blade shone coldly in the light. Newt and Tina were both curious. He looked at the sword in Wayne's hand.

Like Slytherin's Parseltongue, the sword is also a symbol of Godric Gryffindor, and is extremely famous in the wizarding world.

Even the students who graduated from Ilvermorny Tina has also seen records about this sword in books many times.

Wizards holding a sword in one hand and a weapon in the other are rare throughout history.

Unexpectedly, Tina was lucky enough to see the real thing today, which made Tina very excited. There is a strange feeling of witnessing a legend.

Newt is not far behind, even more excited than Tina.

This is a relic of the Big Four.

Dumbledore took the sword from Wayne and found no trace of damage. , let out a long sigh of relief.

He was afraid that Wayne would damage the sword for research.

But before he finished breathing, there was a light touch in his hand, and the sword returned to the young man's hand.

"Mr. Lawrence. Dumbledore looked at him speechlessly:"If this sword is my private property, I don't mind taking it as a Christmas gift to you.""

"But the sword of Gryffindor belongs to Hogwarts, not to an individual, it belongs to the entire school"

"Don't worry, I understand all this. Wayne nodded sincerely:"I will return the sword to you before graduation.""

Dumbledore was choked.

He will come back before graduation....I don’t know if I can survive until then!

"It’s been too long. At the end of this school year, the sorting hat will be put back."Dumbledore started to bargain, but Wayne naturally refused and spoke to the sixth grade.

Under the dumbfounded gazes of Newt and Tina, the old man and the young man bargained like buying vegetables in a vegetable market, and the time was even accurate to the sky..In the end, Vane temporarily obtained the legal ownership of the Sword of Gryffindor until the day of his birthday in fifth year.

However, in exchange, before he returned to school after participating in the Potions Exchange Tournament, the sword It must be kept with Dumbledore for a period of time.

Old Deng was actually very itchy. Before this, he had only heard of the existence of Gryffindor's sword and had never seen the real thing.

If it weren't for Wayne, he would probably have touched it. Not yet.

When I take it back this time, I must work hard to study it.

The matter was solved perfectly. Dumbledore held the sword happily and admired the peak craftsmanship of goblins thousands of years ago.

Newt then issued an invitation:"Since you are here Okay, just finish your dinner and then go back."

"That's so embarrassing."Although Dumbledore said this, he had no intention of leaving at all.

Newt invited him again, and he sighed a little at this time:

"Thank you for inviting me, a lonely old man, to spend the holidays with you."

Tina's eyes had become very unkind, but she still saved Newt's face in front of outsiders and went back to the kitchen to prepare dinner without saying a word.

But Wayne was sure that after Lao Deng left, Newt Life will definitely be difficult for him.

At the dinner table, when Luo Fu saw the future principal, he became very cautious again and wanted to bury his head in his own plate.

Lao Deng simply encouraged Luo Fu and talked to Wei. Well, we talked about Gryffindor's sword

"I heard that he can absorb many treasures to strengthen himself. Is this true?"

"That's right. Wayne nodded:"But Gryffindor has obviously done this. So far I have only found one substance that has not been absorbed.""

"What is it?"Dumbledore asked curiously

"Li Huo."Wayne said a word in an understatement that made both Newt and Tina uncomfortable.

"The sword has absorbed the fierce fire. If it is infused with magic power, the sword will become hot."

"It's a good idea."Dumbledore nodded:"Maybe you can try the Gubler Fairy Fire."

"I tried it but nothing changed, maybe the properties of eternal burning cannot be fused with the sword?"

"It's possible..."

The conversation between the two became more and more advanced, and finally it came to how to make the sword absorb the curse.

Luo Fu, who had been listening quietly, was in awe of Wayne. When he saw the principal, he didn't even dare to speak, but the other party was actually able to talk and even argue.

It's really amazing.

The holidays passed quickly, and the days passed by in a flash since Dumbledore left.

In the blink of an eye, it's a new year again. Originally, Wayne thought he could lie dead until the day after tomorrow, and then go to France to find Nico.

But in the afternoon, an owl brought a letter from Spider End Lane, forcing him to change his plan and return to London early.

"go back? Didn't you agree to stay until the day after tomorrow and go directly to France?"

Tina looked at the young man standing in front of her unhappily.

"Hey, Grandma Tina."Wein came over to please and explained:"There is nothing we can do about it. A company I invested in has made a technological breakthrough. I must go and see it."

"That's a lot of money"

"Have you invested in the company yet?"This is the first time Tina heard about it, and she even forgot about what she was angry about.

"Well, I'm quite optimistic about a broomstick company."

"How much money was invested?"

Wayne did the math with some uncertainty, and finally said:"Twenty-five thousand Galleons."

"so much?"Tina was even more surprised

"It started with only ten thousand galleons."Wayne spread his hands helplessly:"But in the later period, their research and development became more and more expensive, so they couldn't give up halfway. They could only continue to follow up, and it became what it is now."

He now holds more than 50% of Firebolt Company's shares, directly reaching 60%, and the two original founders have completely become his followers.

"Then go ahead."This time it was Tina's turn to be anxious.

Twenty thousand Galleons is not a small number.

"Do you need Newt to go with you?"

Tina was a little worried about whether Wayne had been deceived, so she suggested.

Wayne smiled and said:"No, our potion professor also lives there, and he introduced the person to me. There is no problem."

Tina was relieved.

Wayne went to say hello to Newt again, said goodbye to Rolf, and finally came to the bamboo forest in the backyard.

Wayne stroked the giant panda's soft belly,"Tuantuan, Master, I will I'm leaving now. I'll pick you up after a while."

After understanding what the master said, Tuan Tuan didn't show any reluctance to give up.

With Newt providing delicious food and drink, her life was much more comfortable.

Unlike before, she had to fight with other iron-eating beasts in the mountains. Bamboo, within a few days after coming here, she gained a little weight.

"You foodie."Wayne nodded the panda's head angrily, laughed angrily, and apparated away from

Spider Alley.

After a loud bang, Wayne appeared at the door of a convenience store at the corner of the street.

There happened to be A Muggle woman came out of it. When she saw the boy who suddenly appeared, her eyes widened in surprise and she was about to scream.

"Shh!"Wein raised his index finger to his mouth.

The woman's eyes were confused for a while, and finally she left quietly as if nothing happened.

"What bad luck."Wayne shook his head and waited until the woman could no longer be seen, then walked towards the Firebolt Company.

Wayne knocked on the door, and soon someone came over. The person who opened the door was Spencer Warlow. Seeing his arrival, Showing a surprised expression

"Boss, you came so quickly?"

"Can you not be happy to finally see the finished product?"Venn joked with a smile. Valor scratched his messy hair and was speechless with embarrassment.

Back and forth, they have burned more than 20,000 Galleons of Venn. If they can't get any results, it will be a scam. There was no difference.

The two came to the basement. When the two most skilled goblins they had seen before saw Wayne, they immediately put down their work and came up to them, bowing respectfully.

"boss!"

"Well, it looks like you're doing a good job."Wein looked at the goblins who were working.

They were much more diligent than the last time he came, but he looked at the two old goblins with resentment and fear in his eyes.

Very good, the enemy is about to collapse from within.

"Thanks to your wise leadership."An old goblin flattered him and said:"Everyone is very motivated to work and their efficiency has improved a lot."

"Yes, the bonus will be given out soon."Wein waved his hand, and it was a coin-spreading tactic.

If these two goblins are not allowed to taste the sweetness, how can other goblins contribute more of their own value.

When they heard that there was a year-end bonus, the two goblins smiled even more flatteringly. He sent Wayne into the basement respectfully. Before they entered, he looked at the other goblins fiercely:

"Hurry up, if you delay the progress, I will deduct your salary!"

In the office, Agathe McKay enthusiastically introduced the first nearly finished Firebolt to Wayne.

"Our brooms are made of the highest quality ash wood. According to the Muggle physics information provided by the boss, each broom complies with fluid mechanics to minimize resistance."

"Even on the forks of Broom Wien, we have added spells to maintain balance and reduce wind resistance. The current top speed has reached 180 miles."

"The instantaneous acceleration was also 30% faster than originally imagined, which is why so much money and time were spent."

At the end, McKay carefully explained the reason, proving that they were not trying to steal Wayne's money. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

For this little money, Wayne didn't care at all. care.

But McKay's attitude is still worthy of recognition.

He also quietly used Legilimency and found that the other party was not lying. His mind was full of technical ideas and there were no dark thoughts at all.

Moreover, McKay and Valor did indeed It brought him a surprise.

In the original book, the top speed of the Firebolt was only one hundred and fifty miles per hour, but it suddenly increased to thirty miles per hour.

It was originally an epoch-making broom, but now it has been completely crushed.

See Wayne Looking at the first-generation machine in front of me, the streamlines are extremely beautiful. Because it has not been polished and waxed, the wooden handle is a bit rough, but otherwise there is no problem.

"Very good. I believe that Firebolt Company will surpass Nimbus and become the most successful broomstick company in the world."

"Boss, we have this confidence. Valuo also nodded in agreement:"Now there is a question that requires you to make a decision. How much do you think is appropriate for the pricing of the Firebolt?""

"How much does it cost? asked Wayne

"Including labor, scrap rate, and material fluctuation factors, one rod costs approximately 2,800 Galleons."Hua Luo said quickly:

"If more were made, the cost could be spread, but the minimum would not be less than 2,500 Galleons."

Wein secretly marveled.

This price can almost buy a whole fleet of Nimbus for two thousand.

"In this case"[]

Wayne rubbed his chin:"What we make is not just a broom, but a work of art. And there won't be any competing products for a few years. The price should be higher.""

"How about four thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Galleons?"

"Is it a little too high?"When they heard the number given by Wayne, Valor and McKay were both shocked.

Their initial mental expectation was about 3,500.

The two goblins didn't react at all.

The higher the price, the better, so Only then can they get higher dividends

"Not high at all. Wayne shook his head:"A broom can be used for at least five years. Although the light wheel is cheap, those Quidditch teams have to replace it every year.""

"Besides them, no one would actually buy such an expensive broom, and those who wanted to buy it wouldn't care about the money."

"That's OK."Warlow and McKay were convinced by Wayne's reasoning.

"Take this."Wayne took out a land deed given to him by Mrs. Greengrass.

"The company is about to become famous and it's time to have a decent office space"

"thank you boss. Valor took it over excitedly, once again having a new understanding of Wayne's financial resources and background.

The shops in Diagon Alley cannot be obtained with money alone.

Anyone who can own one can spread the word. A century-old high-quality asset.

Those stores are in the hands of some pure-blood families and companies with hundreds of years of heritage. There are no more ones left.

"When will the first broom be ready?"Wayne asked again.

"About a week should be enough."Hua Luo said quickly:"Now the goblins are much more obedient and their speed is much faster."

"One week? Wayne frowned. He wanted to play with one first.

Suddenly, he looked at the two goblins who had been silent and took out another bag of Galleons.

"This is three hundred galleons."Wein weighed it with a smile, and the goblins' eyes were fixed on the ups and downs of the bag, listening to the crisp sound of the collision of galleons.

"You said, I want to get the broom the day after tomorrow, do you think it is possible?"

"Of course!"A goblin screamed:"Work overtime! You must work overtime to ensure that you complete the task!"

"Damn it! Another goblin slapped him on the head angrily:"What does overtime mean?" That's a New Year's gift from the employees to the boss"

"very good."Vern was very satisfied with their attitude and threw the money bag over. The two goblins pounced on them like vicious dogs, fighting over the ownership of a galleon.

Because the environment of the Firebolt factory was so bad, Wei En After talking about the business, he left.

Originally thinking of leaving directly, he suddenly thought of Snape, turned in a different direction, and walked towards the end of the alley.

He gave Snape a Knut as a Christmas gift this year. , but Snape didn't give him any gifts, which really made Wayne a little sad. He was already here, and he just happened to ask if the professor had forgotten about giving him a gift.

In a dark room at the end of the alley, The candlelight flickered.

Snape stood in front of the operating table. The cauldron on the table was boiling, and the liquid inside was bubbling.

He carefully poured the black powder in the bottle onto the spoon, and then added it little by little. Entering the crucible, observing the changes in the liquid.

At this time, there was a rough knock on the wooden door.

"professor? Professor Snape! I know you are at home, please open the door quickly!"

The sudden loud sound made Snape's hand shake, and all the powder in the spoon fell into the crucible.

Boom!

Intense flames shot up into the sky, the entire dry pot exploded, and the liquid spilled all over the floor.

Snape Pu's lips wriggled and his whole body trembled. It took ten seconds before he let out a roar.

"Lawrence, you deserve to die!".
