Hogwarts Crawler

Whether in terms of publicity or revenue, Adam had no reason to refuse Professor Dumbledore's order.

So in the afternoon, the students who came here through various channels of publicity saw that the legendary store was only a large box with a hollow top. The menu on the wall was still there, but there was an additional notice.

In addition to explaining the situation, the notice also attached a line of tips:

"Students who came to the store but found it empty can take a number paper from the box. There will be a mysterious surprise at the dinner party, so stay tuned?"

Harry and Ron, who didn't get up in the morning and had tasted the sweetness of Seamus Finnigan in the afternoon, stared at the words with some curiosity:

"What do you think it would be?"

"Maybe something like a lottery firecracker?"

Lottery firecrackers only appeared on the Hogwarts dining table today. When they were pulled open, there would be explosions and colorful smoke, and some small toys would be spit out, which could indeed be considered a surprise.

"But if that's the case, there shouldn't be an extra sentence?"

No matter what, Harry and Ron each took a number paper from the box.

Ron wanted to take a few more to try, but unfortunately he almost fell into the box and didn't touch the second one.

In the expectation of everyone, the Christmas dinner started as scheduled. The doors of the auditorium that were closed at Adam's request slowly opened, presenting everything in the auditorium to everyone:

The smell of honey, the smell of caramel, the smell of fruit... The refreshing sweet fragrance floated over the auditorium. The dishes on the table were different from any previous dinners, which made every student who entered the auditorium swallow their saliva.

"There are flowers on the table."

A Ravenclaw girl approached a rose and smelled it. As a result, she smelled not only the fragrance of flowers but also the sweet fragrance. She couldn't help but be stunned:

"This smell...isn't this a flower?"

"How is it possible? This looks obviously..."

Her friend was about to say something when she saw her reach out and pick the flower and put it in her mouth.

"You——?!"

"It's really not a flower, it's a pastry!"

The whole flower tastes soft and almost melts in the mouth. The rich rose fragrance and light sweetness spread between the lips and teeth, making people intoxicated.

Her friend saw this and picked a flower and stuffed it into her mouth doubtfully. Anyway, roses are not poisonous, so it's okay to try it. As a result, she quickly sank into the delicious pastry.

After a long time, the Ravenclaw opened his eyes and looked suspiciously at the things on the table that didn't look like food, such as the candlestick that was not lit...

"This is chocolate!"

——From a Gryffindor who really bit the candlestick.

"This is cake!"

——From a Slytherin who ate the little snowman.

"This is candy!!!"

——From a Gryffindor who bit the little Christmas tree in disbelief.

"This is a cookie!"

——From a Hufflepuff who bit the mistletoe branch.

"Ah!!! This is the table!"

——From a Gryffindor who confidently took a bite of the table under his brother's persuasion.

"Ahem!"

Seeing that the decorations on the table were almost eaten up, Professor Dumbledore quickly tapped the goblet with a spoon to attract the students' attention:

"I believe everyone has noticed that our dinner today is different from the past. There are many new and delicious foods. This is all thanks to our Mr. Adam Reed——"

Adam stood up and gestured to everyone.

"Before the dinner begins, I have to say one more thing: Although Adam has made a lot of clever ideas in the decoration tonight, I still hope that everyone can pay more attention to the food."

Professor Dumbledore said and looked at the long table of Gryffindor.

Adam looked over and saw two identical boys silently putting a branch under the table.

Exactly the same, still Gryffindor, plus this look is similar to the movie, obviously the twins of the Weasley family.

But he didn't remember turning such a big Christmas tree into food. Where did the twins get it from?

Wait...

Adam looked back at the big Christmas trees in the hall, and found a broken section on one of them.

"Especially don't destroy the decorations that are not on the table. They can't be eaten. I can assure you."

Professor Dumbledore added.

A dinner party allowed all the little wizards who stayed in Hogwarts for Christmas to experience the sweets in Adam's store. These delicious and novel foods left a deep impression on them.

The professors were happy, and the students were fine. They had spent countless Christmases in Hogwarts, and todayThe Christmas of that year was quite new to them, and thus their appetites were whetted.

Adam saw it with his own eyes: Professor McGonagall ate half of the white fish soup on the teacher's table, and Hagrid ate six elbows, so that Adam had to notify the house elves to put a few more on the teacher's table...

Professor Dumbledore was also very happy. The professors carefully prepared the decoration of the auditorium, but it was a big deal that few people came. But Adam did nothing wrong. Although there was no precedent, Hogwarts did not have a school rule that prohibited students from running normal businesses on campus.

Now it can be said that it is a win-win situation. The school dinner went much better than expected, and the students' business was booming. Although it cost a little more money, it was the money of the board of directors, and he didn't feel bad about spending it.

As for Adam... he was probably the happiest.

Although the little wizards who stayed in Hogwarts only accounted for a small part of all the students, they were dispersed widely enough. With every professor, each of these people had eaten every product in their own store. What kind of advertising effect was this?

He even thoughtfully changed the patterns on each food container into the name of the corresponding food, so that everyone can remember their favorite food and buy it next time they come to the store.

As for the price... Not only did he not spend a penny, but he also made a lot of money. He was simply crazy about winning.

Back in the dormitory, even Uther couldn't help but be curious:

"How much did you make from the dinner tonight?"

"Hehe~ a little bit, just a little bit~"

Adam made a "little bit" gesture with his index finger and thumb.

"It seems to be a lot of money, but this money really belongs to you."

Cologne touched his bulging belly and nestled comfortably in the sofa:

"Adam, you must open a store as soon as you graduate. Why not open it in Hogsmeade? It only costs more than 50,000 Galleons to buy a store there." The most important thing is that it is next to his house.

"Okay, then we can try to develop dishes made with magical animals and buy directly from your house."

"Sure! I'll give you a discount!"

Listening to what the two said, Eugene said:

"If you want to open a store, I think Diagon Alley is more suitable. Although the store there is more expensive, the flow of people is larger. The store can be rented first."

"In fact, I also prefer Hogsmeade."

Adam shook his head:

"The stores in Diagon Alley are too close together, which does not match the restaurant I expected."

"You want to open a 'Black Swan' in the wizarding world?"

Bernard was surprised. Black Swan is the name of Mr. Reed's French restaurant.

"The name will definitely not be Black Swan. I haven't thought about it yet. The decoration must also conform to the style of the wizarding world, but it's probably that idea."
