The Mysterious Return of Hogwarts

The morning sun shines on the round dew.

In the garden, Neo sat under an umbrella and drank tea.

His two servants, Quirinus and Lucius, were discussing the dragon-raising industry planned by Neo last night.

As for the dragon breeding industry, Neo only gave an empty framework last night, and there are other details to fill in.

As the master, he led the discussion.

"First of all, we need to sort out our strengths and weaknesses. Consider the weaknesses first. Quirinas, tell me, what are our shortcomings?"

Quirrell had obviously done his homework. He didn't understand business, but he had talked about dragon eggs with Hagrid, and he had personally been to Albaria not long ago.

"Master Neo, compared with the dragon-raising valley in Albaria, our dragon farm is very small, and the alchemy industry surrounding dragons is everywhere. If we compete with them in the mature wizard market in Europe, we can't compete with them just by relying on our strength." Dumbledore's patent authorization..."

The implication is that he feels that raising dragons can make money, but it won't be particularly profitable, at least not in a short period of time.

"You are wizards, but you are smart. There is not enough space. Is the Invisible Stretch Spell used to make a Quidditch pitch? As for Albaria, a small country like Zuer, how can it compare with the United Kingdom, which once dominated Europe and Asia... ..As long as the British Ministry of Magic is on our side, it cannot be an obstacle to us... Obtaining Dumbledore's patent authorization is not for its own sake. You must think clearly that with this name First, even if our products are about the same or worse than others, we won’t have to worry about sales because of the celebrity effect.”

Neo gave his opinions one by one, all in the general direction. He didn't need to worry about the details of implementation. He just talked about sales and what the market demand for dragon products was. In the wizarding world, that's... unlimited!

Except for a magical animal that is as dangerous as a dragon, no one has been able to breed it on a large scale so far.

So they only need to consider supplying materials and processing goods, and the wizarding markets in Britain, Europe, and even America will happily accept the dumping of their goods.

Lucius stood up and expressed his thoughts again. He spent the night studying the secret book on raising dragons given by Neo in his study last night, but in the morning his hair was still smooth and full of energy.

"The Traceless Stretch Spell will increase the cost, and annual maintenance is also a big expense. We can't build such a large area in the short term. Dragons grow very fast, but the benefits from killing young dragons are not worth it. Do."

He was optimistic about this industry. Voldemort wanted to do business, which made him feel more relaxed than wanting to massacre the British wizarding world. It was not that he had a compassionate heart, but he was just used to it. Before, a group of Death Eaters gathered under Voldemort's command. , he doesn’t mind being a follower. This time Neo appears, except that he is still powerful, but his subordinates have only seen a young Quirinas Quirrell. He is worried that Neo will try to dominate the wizarding world again, and he Will be sent out to charge into battle.

Malfoy is not as stupid as Lestrange and Black.

"Lucius, what you mean is that you want to slow down the layout and accumulate strength... This is the best foolish opinion a mediocre person can think of... But if you are smarter, Don’t you think this is a stupid idea? Do you want me, Neo Slytherin, to spend ten, twenty, or a century raising a group of lizards with you losers?”

Neo raised his head from his notebook and stared at Lucius coldly, seemingly angry at his servant's incompetence.

Of course Lucius hoped to do this. Voldemort had protected his family's money-making industry for a century. If he really did this, he would laugh so hard that he couldn't sleep. But when faced with the eyes that wanted to kill him, he immediately knelt down with a thump. on the grass.

"I don't have such an idea. I am completely loyal to your great cause!"

Great cause... Neo didn't even know if he had mentioned this kind of thing before. Since when could killing other wizards be associated with the word great?

"I don't know much more than Quilinas about business, but at least I know one thing. If you want to make money through this industry, you don't necessarily have to raise dragons..."

Ah? ?

Lucius and Quirrell were a little confused. Wasn't what they were discussing just now about raising dragons?

Neo was fed up with the 'integrity and integrity' of his servants. It was a pity that the Death Eaters focused their expertise on cruelty rather than cunning.

"We set up a dragon farm, and then produce it into products and sell them in exchange for gold galleons. Is this the process?"

Quirrell and Lucius nodded in unison.

"Because of Dumbledore's celebrity aura, the product prices are a little more expensive than other stores, so you won't have to worry about sales, right?"

Quirrell and Lucius nodded again.

"With the extra Galleons earned, we can purchase some raw materials from the black market, process them, and then label them as our products. Will this be able to make up for the lack of output from the dragon farm?"

Neo poked his fingers up and down on the table.

"You have to understand that what we are selling is not a dragon at all, but...[Dumbledore]!"

"Dragons are everywhere, Dumbledore, only we have them!"

"Why is the dragon farm built in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts? Isn't it because of the world's greatest white wizard as a partner...that is, Voldemort's reputation is not good, otherwise I would like to stand up personally. Endorse the product!”

.......

The simple magic world has not yet experienced the baptism of vulgar advertising and marketing, so Neo had to personally crush the later generations' concepts of OEM, outsourcing, and selling trademarks, and fed them bit by bit into the mouths of the two servants.

It's very disappointing.

Finally, Neo gave orders to the two servants who were full of confidence.

"Extend your tentacles from the island to the mainland, use alchemical products to break open the markets of other countries' wizarding worlds, plunder gold galleons from the top to the bottom, be more unscrupulous, until they have exhausted all the oxygen there, leaving them with only carbon dioxide! "

???

Suddenly they couldn't understand again, but Lucius and Quirrell no longer used their ignorant minds to delay Neo's precious morning light. They left together and started to carry out their work in their own directions.

The dirty site construction and dragon breeding work were coordinated by Quirrell.

The dirtier business negotiations and profit distribution were left to Lucius.

Neo relaxed and continued writing today's inspiration in his notebook.

"About the sixth attempt to kill Dumbledore... After personal contact, I discovered that Dumbledore had so many flaws... Taking advantage of his sweet tooth, he... Poisoning in Honeydukes' workshop...the success rate is expected to be 70.00%..."

Wait, I mentioned Dumbledore too many times just now, but I thought of irrelevant aspects again. With a stroke of the wand, I erased these rubbish words, and Neo started writing again.

"A study on whether a Horcrux can be resurrected into life while its owner is still alive..."
