Since Albert returned from Hogsmeade, he has been helping his three roommates to complete their homework better.
Fred and George had been nagging and complaining for a long time, saying that Wood had completely turned into a training freak.
"Stop complaining. When you finish your homework, I will tell you good news." Albert urged the three of them to continue doing their homework while flipping through the book.
"What's the good news?" Li Jordan threw a cocoa multi-flavor bean into his mouth and asked curiously.
"Finish your homework first." Albert pointed to their parchment and reminded, "Wouldn't it be better to finish it and get rid of it early?"
"He must have sold the formula." Fred had obviously guessed what the good news from Albert was.
When Albert said he wanted to sell the redness and swelling remover formula, he didn't think it would fail. After all, Albert rarely did anything he wasn't sure about. It was completely normal to successfully sell the formula.
"Yes, it has been sold." Albert nodded and admitted, "It was sold for five hundred galleons."
"As expected of Albert." George couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, focus on your homework, and I'll tell you another good news later." Albert said with a smile. After that, he continued to focus on the book.
The three of them continued to do their homework. Only Ron, who was playing wizard chess with his roommates next to him, was a little distracted and seemed to be muttering something in a low voice.
An hour later, the three finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Albert to tell them the so-called good news. Albert smiled and took them back to the dormitory to show the three of them today's results.
George grabbed a handful of Galleons and let the gold coins fall from his fingers into the pile of Galleons. Listening to the crisp jingle, he couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that it would be so easy to get five hundred Galleons."
But it still feels a bit unreal.”
"However, there shouldn't be 500 Galleons in this bag, right?" Fred asked, "This bag only has more than 100 Galleons at most."
"Well, no." Albert looked at the three roommates with a half-smile and said, "This bag of Galleons does only have one hundred Galleons. This is what I prepared for you."
With that said, Albert thrust the bag of Galleons into George's hand, "I've prepared a hundred Galleons for each of you."
The three of them were stunned, unable to believe what they had just heard.
George suddenly started to giggle, and after a long time, he stuttered and asked: "Are you going to give me this bag of galleons?"
"To be precise, it should be kept by you. This is the start-up capital for our future store opening." Albert smiled and put the money bags into the hands of Fred and Lee Jordan respectively, "Let me keep it and let you keep it."
There really isn’t much difference, is there?”
The three of them started to look at the money bags in their hands and giggle again.
I don't know how long it took before Fred suddenly asked, "Aren't you afraid that we will spend the galleons?"
"Will you waste your hope of opening a store in the future?" Albert asked rhetorically.
Fred and George shook their heads together. They both knew that their family's situation would not be able to help them realize their wish to open a joke shop in the future. Just like Albert said, the money is for their future joke shop.
Hope, if they spend it, where will they get the money to open the store?
The two of them will definitely keep their pockets tightly closed and will not waste their future hopes.
"Thank you. But I'll leave the Galleons with you first." Fred handed the bag of Galleons back to Albert, "We won't need it for the time being."
"You need to learn to keep accounts and learn how to manage galleons." Albert said with a smile, "This is what we need to do when we open a store in the future, and you also need to learn these things."
George shook his head. There was no way he would take Albert's money. After all, the galleons belonged to Albert. Even if Albert said that he would keep it with them, this kind of trust really made them very happy.
They were moved, but the three of them would not keep the money anyway, even though it was the largest galleons they had ever touched.
After some mutual rejection, Albert successfully persuaded the three of them and gave each of them fifty Galleons. Fred and George also needed this research fund to purchase raw materials to study joke props, while Lee Jordan needed the research funds to purchase raw materials.
Responsible for organizing this wizarding card competition and preparing prizes, Albert also taught them how to keep accounts on the pretext that they need to know how to keep accounts when opening a store, and asked them to spend every Nat they spent.
record it.
Albert's assignment of tasks made all three roommates extremely excited. They had already seen the prototype of a company.
Although he was a bit suspected of pretending to be a family member, Albert knew that the three of them would do their own thing seriously.
In their excitement, Fred, George and Lee Jordan were completely unaware of Albert's sinister intentions. This guy was completely preparing for his future as the boss.
Didn't Albert train them just to let his three friends help him manage the company in the future, so that he could be lazy and fish for money?
Give them a good name and give them a chance to train themselves.
Well, there's no one more reliable than him, right?
Moreover, this small group composed of friendship and interests will be very stable in the future. After all, wizards are not as frivolous as Muggles.
…
In the evening, in the Gryffindor common room, Harry, who was doing homework, suddenly heard Ron talking about the news he heard this afternoon.
"You said that Albert sold a potion formula and earned five hundred Galleons?" Harry himself had no idea about Galleons and had no reaction at all when Ron told him about it.
"You made five hundred Galleons from selling the formula?" Hermione was surprised. Although she also didn't have much idea about Galleons, she also knew that it was a lot of money.
"What formula did he sell?"
"I don't know." Ron wished he was the one selling the formula. He sometimes dreamed that he used the Sorcerer's Stone to create a pile of gold and spent money to buy a Quidditch team.
"Don't think about those things, just eat a candy!" Hermione shared the candy in her pocket with Harry and Ron.
"It tastes good, where did you buy it from?" Harry ate one and wanted to spend money to buy some.
"It should have been bought by Hogsmeade." Ron said depressedly, "When Charlie was still in school, he would send some candies to Ginny and me as Christmas gifts every year."
"When I met Albert in the library in the afternoon, he gave it to me." Hermione explained, "It was said to be a return gift for a Christmas gift."
"Afternoon? Albert spent the whole afternoon reading in the lounge, teaching Fred and George their homework by the way, and I was right next to him." Ron raised his eyebrows.
Hermione frowned slightly. She had indeed met Albert in the library. The candy was the best proof. Ron obviously didn't seem to be lying. Could it be that... there were two Alberts?
