some magical Hogwarts

Chapter 949 He Knows How to Touch My Sensitive Spots!

If you want to get someone to do something, but the other party is unwilling, you must grasp their fate.

Some people eat soft but not hard, some people eat hard but not soft, and some people eat hard when they are soft.

As long as you pinpoint the weak point, everything is going to be beneficial.

And Professor Slughorn is undoubtedly difficult to deal with, otherwise Dumbledore would not have anything to do with him.

But the old man's weakness is also obvious, that is, his greed for enjoyment, and... his fanatical "stamp collection" for talented students.

He was like a high-end player. When the wizard was still young, he judged whether the other party would succeed in the future.

He will gather those successful wizards around him... Invest in advance and get high returns in the future.

Of course, the two do not conflict at all, or complement each other.

Slughorn's stamp collection is for a better material life;

And his good life and rich social network can help those students and let them go further.

It might seem like profit versus profit, but in Slughorn's words:
"Even if you are a genius, you still need someone to save you, right?

Don't make anything so vulgar! "

In short, Slughorn is a typical Slytherin, and he can control that temperament to death.

But at this time, he was being pinched to death by William.

Whether it's the expensive dragon carcass, the giant material, or the superior delivery service of Akali's mysterious store...all attract Slughorn.

Especially after a year of exile, that kind of graceful and decent life is what he yearns for most at the moment.

The most important thing was William himself. He only had one last year left before graduating from Hogwarts.

No one can hide his brilliance.

Slughorn didn't want to miss this, possibly the brightest jewel of his career.

And the safety issue he was worried about... don't worry about it.

Under William's reminder, the castle is surrounded by giants for protection.

He and Dumbledore sit at Hogwarts at any time.

Let alone the Death Eaters, even Voldemort dared not look them in the eye.

Of course, as a master of speech, William naturally knows what is left blank and what is to stop.

He didn't mention being a professor at all, and chatted about the Buckingham Palace battle for a while, and finally stood up and said:
"We've been nagging for a long time, now it's time to go."

Slughorn seemed taken aback. He hesitated, and said, "Are you leaving? Aren't you staying for dinner?"

"No, Annie is still at home, waiting for us to go back." Hermione smiled and said:

"Goodbye Professor, we will see you again at Christmas."

Harry also stood up in bewilderment.

He remembered that William said that he was here to recruit teachers... Now he just went back without saying anything?

Slughorn apparently thought so too, twiddling his fat thumbs in what appeared to be anxiety.

Slughorn finally spoke first: "You really didn't come to ask me to return to Hogwarts as a professor, William?"

William smiled.

In this case, it is the same as men and women falling in love, whoever speaks first will be the biggest loser.

"Really not, sir." William straightened his clothes and said with distress, "But I do have something to trouble you."

Slughorn was comfortable... that's right!
"Tell me and listen, if possible, I will definitely help." He said eagerly.

William coughed and said:

"That's right, Professor Snape is going to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

The school still lacks a potions professor..."

Slughorn cried out inwardly:

"Show your tail, you still invite me!"

William paused, and said slowly:
"You have such a wide network and so many students, we want you to recommend a reliable candidate to the school."

"..."

He glanced at Slughorn, wondering if:
"But since you haven't contacted the outside world for more than a year, forget it, we'll ask other people to help."

"..."

This is not what I imagined!

Slughorn blushed, stared at William for a long time, and suddenly laughed heartily.

"Come on, which wizard is better at potions than me?
You still want to come and let me go back...why beat around the bush like this. "

"No, you just need to recommend one..."

Slughorn interrupted William and hummed to himself: "I won't go back...I won't accept your invitation!"

"We really didn't plan to invite you." William nodded. "It just so happens that you don't plan to go back to teach... In this regard, we are in agreement."

William turned and walked towards the door, Hermione following.

Slughorn stared blankly at William's back, as if impatient.

He grabbed the Flame Whiskey on the table and gulped down several big gulps.

The old man walked up and down the room, his eyes were red, and he shouted angrily:
"Dumbledore, the cunning old bee, he's still so good at it!

He knows how to get my interest, how to touch my sensitive spots and turn me on!

This old bastard!
Well, well... I join, I am willing to be a professor!

Are you satisfied? ! "

"Professor, you are too old, you should stay here to live your life." William turned around and still refused.

Slughorn hurried up, grabbed William's sleeve, and said anxiously:

"Don't leave, William, leave this position to me! Otherwise, I'll hang a banner at the school gate and make a fuss in the principal's office!"

"Okay, okay." William said with a look of embarrassment: "I'll go back and talk to the principal and see if there is any accommodation."

"William, thank you, you are such a good boy."

William grinned.

Harry stared at the two of them dumbfounded, and agreed to beg Slughorn to go back to be a teacher, why is it the other way around now?

Now that he agreed, the atmosphere became heated again, and Slughorn pulled William and Hermione to talk about his "Those Years When He Was Head of Slytherin".

In the end, the old man sent the three of them out again. After drinking a bottle of whiskey, he put his arms around William's shoulder drunkenly, and said without hesitation:

"It's not me bragging, if I go back to Hogwarts, Severus will definitely give up the head of Slytherin on his own initiative.

When he saw me, he had to bow to me respectfully and call me:
'Teacher, you are finally back'.

This is respect! "

He hiccupped and pointed to Jiang Shan:

"There is also Minerva, that little girl was trained by me back then.

She admired me the most, she was my little fan girl back then.

At least give me five times the salary.

And Felius... now Head of Ravenclaw House.

But honestly, if I say one, he dare not say two.

After school started, I introduced him to an old rich woman whose husband had died.

Thirty female college students, holding gold bricks.

This kid can enjoy himself. "

"I will bring these words one by one." William laughed.

He then apparated away with Hermione and Harry.

Slughorn stood where he was, rubbing his fat cheeks, a little smug.

In his belt, there are three more exquisite wizard cards.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and he suddenly woke up from the wine, with cold sweat running down his back.

Wait... What did William say before leaving?
