036: The chance to make big money is just around the corner

Of course I believe it, it is still a basilisk, the kind that can glare at people.

Joel naturally would not say these words. He and Sergey worked in the library all morning, and finally sorted out the history of the founding of Hogwarts, and what happened in Hogwarts Castle.

Each event is marked with major events that occurred in the British magical world and even the European magical world in the same year.

Different from the History of Magic textbook written by Ms. Bathilda Bagshot, the outline proposed by Joel very intuitively shows the trends of the entire magical world nine hundred years ago. After all, the establishment of Hogwarts and the development of the European wizarding world

Continued turmoil is inseparable.

The two are closely related and interdependent. Joel is good at using the overall historical perspective to connect various events that occurred in the same period and discover their inherent laws and inevitability.

At noon, they returned to the auditorium for lunch, and they rushed to the hospital wing with Allen, holding a few fried chicken legs taken from the dean's table.

The Medical Wing is located on the side of Hogwarts Castle near the west tower. It is usually inaccessible. Joel and the other three walked through the empty corridors and came to the door of the Medical Wing and knocked softly.

After a while, a woman opened the door. She looked about forty years old, had a kind face, and was slightly fat.

"Madam Pomfrey, we are here to visit Eddie Carmichael." Joel said.

"Oh, that poor child with a broken hand bone..." Madam Pomfrey looked sad.

She turned around and led the three of them into the medical wing. As soon as Joel entered, he saw 20 beds neatly arranged in the spacious space of the medical wing. The white sheets were particularly dazzling under the sunlight outside the window.

Eddie was leaning on the head of the bed, with his right hand hanging on his chest by the bandage around his neck. He was holding a red apple in his left hand and gnawing on it. He lowered his head and read a copy of "Wizard Weekly".

"Eddie!" Allen grinned as soon as he saw him, "Look what we brought you?"

When Eddie heard the sound, he quickly raised his head and saw his three roommates holding several oil paper bags in their hands. They said with a sad face: "I miss you so much!"

As he spoke, he put down the apple in his hand and used his left hand to pick out the paper bags in the hands of the three people.

"You don't even know how sad it was for me to fall asleep alone in this huge room last night!" He took Allen's paper bag and opened it, and the aroma of fried chicken drumsticks filled the hospital wing.

His face changed at the speed of light, and his expression changed from gloomy to clear. He eagerly grabbed a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth, then narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

"He won't be discharged from the hospital until this Friday. I told your dean that he will miss all classes this week." Madam Pomfrey said, "The visiting time should not be too long. The patient needs adequate rest."

After saying this, Madam Pomfrey went to the office behind the hospital bed to stay, leaving this space for their students.

"I'm really sorry. I happened to hurt my right hand this time, and the outline of the History of Magic was not compiled at all." Eddie held the chicken leg in his mouth and spoke a little slurred. "Logically, my proportion of the revenue should be reduced."

Joel and Sergey looked at each other and shook their heads, "The rest of the outline compilation work will be done by the two of us. You should wait until your hand heals to do the job of selling the outline."

"The three of us each get 30% of the profit, and the remaining 10% is used as start-up capital for future business, how about that?"

Eddie and Sergey agreed with Joel's suggestion. Take this outline of the History of Magic as an example. They all used parchment paper, ink and quills that the three of them bought themselves. The cost of materials is difficult to estimate. Now

Set aside 10% of the income, and if the three of them have any expenses, they can draw it directly from this.

"Do you have any magazines in your dormitory?" Eddie picked up another chicken drumstick. "I had so much free time last night that I could only borrow Madam Pomfrey's Wizarding Weekly to read."

"There are only two books in her office, and I'm already reading them for the second time," Eddie said with a grimace. "It would be too boring to think about staying here for two more days."

"...The magazine doesn't have it, but we brought you Bibi's multi-flavor beans!" Joel took out Eddie's box of Bibi's multi-flavor beans from his pocket and handed it to him, "You can try new flavors in the next two days, absolutely

Subvert your imagination!"

"Really?" Eddie happily gnawed the chicken legs clean, took the candy box, opened it, and filled in a jelly bean.

As soon as the candy entered his mouth, Eddie closed his eyes tightly and coughed repeatedly, "What does this smell like? It's smelly and spicy!"

Joel didn't expect Eddie to be so unlucky that the first one actually tasted what Allen called "the flavor of boogers and Mexican peppers."

Just thinking about it makes Joel shudder. This is no better than canned herring.

Allen laughed, and Sergey grinned slightly.

"Ahem..." Eddie closed his eyes and couldn't stop the tears from flowing down. He was obviously choked. He quickly picked up the water glass on the cabinet and took a sip.

"Are you messing with me on purpose?"

"How is that possible?" Allen retorted, "We don't know what flavor each Bibi multi-flavor bean is."

But Allen couldn't control the corners of his mouth that were still raised, which confirmed Eddie's suspicion and rushed forward to make a fuss with Allen.

They didn't stop until Madam Pomfrey came out of the office.

Joel and Sergey spent the next time in the library. The part about the history of the establishment of Hogwarts was sorted out, but the first-year exam also included the establishment of Hogsmeade.

They had to go back and forth in the library to sort it out. Fortunately, the first-year courses were not very stressful. After another 10 days, they finally compiled a 100-page review outline for the History of Magic.

Among them, key theories and analysis of required test points accounted for 20 pages, in which they also expanded a lot of knowledge to make it easier for others to understand this historical knowledge. The remaining 80 pages were found in various final exam papers in the library.

questions, and they also compiled answers and explanations at the back of the questions.

Joel specifically asked Alan to read it again to ensure that he could easily accept the knowledge in the outline without feeling abrupt without listening to two sections on the history of magic. This outline was officially completed.

"I have a question..." Alan patted the pile of parchment that Joel handed him, "Are you only going to disseminate these materials in the school?"

"You mean..." Joel reacted.

"We will sell it on a trial basis in Hogwarts first. As long as we win the favor of the students," said Allen, who has business knowledge from elementary school to college, "these materials can be printed by a publishing company, and Flourish and Blotts Bookstore will be happy to buy them.

This batch of books."

"They are the largest book seller in the UK, and the profits are not small." Ellen's words were very attractive to Joel.

He is very short of money.
