Overturning Hogwarts

Chapter 22 Muggle Magic Class

In his previous life, he lived in an era of information explosion. Although Zhang Rui is just an ordinary person, he also learned a lot of HR tricks to recruit people when he was looking for a job.

I have done quite a lot of business in my life, and I have personally poached people a few times. Finally, I came up with a simple and crude method that I use conveniently.

First of all, just throw money at it!

What is your current salary, I will give you double, triple, even five or ten times. Most people who need to run for money are immediately knocked unconscious.

Secondly, talk about the position.

Some big companies are not short of money, but they have been unable to be promoted. The former subordinates have become the current leaders. Do you feel better? In this way, you use your position to attract people and give him a higher position and greater autonomy. He was originally a department deputy and was directly promoted to deputy general manager.

Finally, let’s talk about dream achievement.

What is your aspiration?

You have to say that what you want to do is changing the world, and by the way, you belittle what the other person is doing.

For example, when Jobs poached the CEO of Coca-Cola, "Do you want to spend your life selling soda, or do you want to change the world with me?"

……

Zhang Rui has always believed that people with real abilities must have ideals and ambitions and find it difficult to satisfy the status quo.

But these house elves overturned his understanding.

Although his strength exceeds that of ordinary adult wizards, he lives a slave-like life and is proud of it.

I don’t want anything, I just want to work, there is no salary, no position, let alone five insurances and one housing fund. My dream is to work like this for the rest of my life.

This made it impossible for Zhang Rui to start his recruiting plan.

Fortunately, these elves were very polite to him, or should be said to have the same respect for every little wizard in Hogwarts.

So Zhang Rui's trip was not in vain. After knowing that the elves took care of all the chores at Hogwarts, he casually found an excuse to ask the elves to change the magic robe he brought to Hogwarts style. , and wore the Hufflepuff emblem.

House elves are responsible for all the chores at Hogwarts, including cooking, washing dishes, doing laundry, cleaning, and also being tailors. The magic robes the little wizards bought before they were sorted did not have the academy logo. After they were sorted, the elves would sew the logo on them.

……

Returning to the Hufflepuff lounge, he first returned the borrowed magic robe, and then found a bed in the freshman dormitory to lie down on.

The number of beds in the freshman dormitory cannot be exactly the same as the number of freshmen, because no one knows how many people there will be in the college before branching out, so more beds will naturally be prepared, which is convenient for Zhang Rui, a fake student.

You cannot go to other grades at this time because the roommates all know each other.

The first-grade wizards introduced each other, and Zhang Rui made up a new name for himself, Nicholas Zhang San.

The Chinese looked at Zhang Sanhui as a drama, but the British only thought it was an unusual surname, similar to Susan.

……

The first day passed like this, and Nicholas Zhang San also began his study life at Hogwarts.

First of all, of course, we have to stay away from Harry Potter and the annoying schoolgirl.

Zhang Rui, who did not cross the Black Lake by boat, did not know that Neville's toad had been found and was interpreted to be in full compliance with his prediction.

Fortunately, Hufflepuff and Gryffindor don't have many interactions.

Secondly, Zhang Rui came here to learn magic secretly, not to be a good student, so he didn't go to some classes at all.

For example, if you go to the observatory to observe the starry sky with a telescope at night, come on, it’s 1991 now. You are still using the telescope invented by Galileo more than years ago.

If Zhang Rui's student identity hadn't been fake, he would have wanted to sponsor a new astronomical telescope at Hogwarts to let them know what the universe is like.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?

Wherever love is, don't go!

Zhang Rui has no interest in those animals anyway.

"A Thousand Miracle Herbs and Mushrooms",

Who has the time to memorize so many kinds of medicinal herbs? Why not!

Moreover, Professor Sprout is the dean of Hufflepuff and can remember the names of thousands of plants. If every student in his college also remembers it, wouldn't Zhang Rui reveal his secret?

And he is really not interested in herbal medicine. What he needs is something that can be used quickly and highlight his status as an expert.

What he wanted to do most was Charms, Transfiguration and Potions.

So in the Charms class, Zhang Rui held a fake wand and learned the simple spells taught by Flitwick with his Hufflepuff classmates.

Not only must the spell be pronounced correctly, down to every sound, but the wand must also be waved correctly.

Zhang Rui just secretly used a small video recorder to record the movements and spells demonstrated by Flitwick, and then pretended to practice with everyone.

At this time, there were already small video recorders, so in "The Gambler", Zhou Xingxing was able to shoot vedio for the God of Gamblers. Zhang Rui was not short of money, so the equipment he got was better. Although the effect is not as good as the Thousand Yuan Machine of later generations.

As for the result, of course it is impossible to succeed.

Fortunately, there are many young wizards in Hufflepuff who have ordinary qualifications, so he does not attract attention.

……

The same goes for the Transfiguration class. The video recorder secretly recorded Professor McGonagall's demonstration, practiced in a mock-like manner, failed, and ended the get out of class...

Zhang Rui originally had the highest expectations for Snape's Potions class. After all, even if he was a Muggle, he could still learn magical potions.

But Zhang Rui was immediately confused by the various professional terms in the potion.

Zhang Rui's English ability allows him to communicate normally with British people. This is because he often came into contact with foreigners in his previous job and specially practiced his spoken English.

But only listening and speaking is okay, reading and writing is a bit more difficult. You can understand the general meaning when reading in English, but it is difficult to grasp the subtle differences, and magic medicine requires grasping the subtle differences.

What's more, he couldn't distinguish those professional terms at all!

What about narcissus root powder, mugwort infusion, who says these in everyday English? Is this mugwort the same thing as Chinese mugwort?

Shouldn’t the second half of the words monkshood and wolfsbane be the same?

It's like an ordinary college student suddenly comes into contact with a pharmacology textbook that is all in English. He can't remember it at all, and he can't get it right.

Zhang Rui immediately gave up. Instead of struggling to learn how to prepare the potion, he might as well just buy (steal) it ready-made.

Isn’t it much simpler to just write down the name and effect of the potion? Why do you have to prepare it yourself?

And there is another scary thing about Snape, that is, he likes to call names before class.

Of course, Flitwick also liked to name names, but unlike Snape.

Flitwick called the names to see if anyone was skipping class. It would be good if everyone was present. Only those who performed particularly well or poorly would be remembered by him quickly.

But Snape, Zhang Rui felt that he was likely to remember everyone's name, so he might soon find that there was an extra person in the classroom.

I can’t understand it anyway, so just give up.

……

What makes Zhang Rui feel most comfortable is actually the history of magic course that everyone is bored with, such as goblin rebellion and the burning of witches in the Middle Ages, although he has no interest in these at all.

The teacher of the History of Magic is a ghost. It is said that he forgot his body one time in class... Zhang Rui likes this kind of forgetful teacher.

And although Professor Binns's lectures are boring and make people sleepy, he will not scold you even if you really fall asleep.

Zhang Rui doesn't take other classes, so he has more time than others. When he has no place to go, he is even willing to stay here for a day. Professor Binns can't tell anyway.

……

"Hey, next period is flying class. Mrs. Hooch is going to teach us how to fly on a broomstick."

"Great, I can finally fly!"

Listening to the excited discussion of the classmates next to him, Zhang Rui curled his lips disdainfully: "I am a straight man, and I am really not happy about things like holding a stick between my legs."

In fact, he felt that his secret would be exposed as soon as he left. After all, Muggles should not be able to summon broomsticks.

"When can I awaken my magic power?" Zhang Rui sighed, and the nine-character handprint in his hand changed quietly.

Ever since he successfully entered the platform with the "Bing" hand seal at Jiuyou 34, Zhang Rui has pinned his hopes for awakening his magic power on the nine-character hand seal. He practices it when he has nothing to do. So far, he has not seen any effect.

"Huh? Did I forget any lessons?"
