Overturning Hogwarts

Because of laziness and being smart, Zhang Rui gave up the potions class and specialized in spells and transformation.

However, due to his lack of basic common sense in the wizarding world, he looked far away, and it took him more than half a year to learn that the unicorn hair he had been searching for was just an ordinary material in potions class.

But Zhang Rui has no intention of correcting himself.

Zhang Rui is a pragmatist. If he needs to make a wand, he will look for a wand core. If he needs unicorn hair, he will look for a unicorn. But he does not need to use potions now, so naturally he will not take such a strenuous potion class. .

When he really needs a certain potion, wouldn't it be enough to find someone who can make potions, such as Granger, such as Snape...

Having this idea is also related to Zhang Rui's life experience.

Most people naturally hope that they are all-powerful, can learn everything, can solve problems themselves, and don’t ask anyone for anything. But this takes a lot of time and energy, and sometimes it also depends on talent.

For example, Miss Granger is talented enough to memorize so many books before school starts. She also studies very hard and invests a lot of time and energy.

But Zhang Rui has been a business tycoon in recent years, and he is exhausted from doing everything himself. His concept is to find professional people to help him do things, and do more important things by himself.

Just like ordinary people, they don't need to spend time learning to treat themselves. When they get sick, they just need to go to a doctor.

So after regretting it for two days, Zhang Rui decided to continue on the previous path and just ask professionals for advice when he encountered problems.

……

"Oh, Nicholas, please advise Hagrid. His fire dragon is growing too fast. If it is not dealt with, everyone will see it in a while. It is illegal to raise dragons privately. He will be sent to Aziz Caban’s.”

After getting the unicorn hair, Zhang Rui stopped running to Hagrid.

As for the little dragon, he originally thought that Hagrid could handle it, but he didn't expect that growing too fast would cause trouble.

"Dispose of it? Then do you know how to kill a dragon? Where to cut, where to bleed, how to dissect the body... Well, although I am very reluctant to do so, we can't let Hagrid be captured in Azkaban because of this, right? ?”

What Zhang Rui has always been thinking about is actually the achievement of slaying the dragon and the dragon's heart and nerves. Although the dragon is a little small, it is still a dragon no matter how small it is. I can't wait until it grows up.

"Don't be ridiculous, you must know what we mean. Ron's brother is studying fire dragons in Romania. We can send the little dragon there..."

Zhang Rui's eyes lit up when he heard this. He didn't expect that Ron, the most mediocre among the three, actually had a brother who was raising dragons. Wouldn't the dragon's heart and nerves be in place?

"Oh, Ron, my good buddy!" Zhang Rui stepped forward excitedly and gave Ron a hug. "We must let our brother take good care of Novi. You will be my best friend from now on."

Ron reminded: "It's Norbert, not Novi."

"Oh, I'm so sad. You know, I have always regarded Norbert as my own child. I feel a little incoherent when I think of being separated from him... Can I go to Romania to see Norbert in the future?"

Zhang Rui only saw Xiaolong once when he was born, but he never went there at all after that.

"You are indeed a caring person as Hagrid said. If you have time, of course you can go to Romania to see Norbert. My brother will take good care of him."

Zhang Rui didn't worry much about how to contact Ron's brother or how to persuade Hagrid to let him go. In the following days, he often went to Gryffindor to find Ron, giving him various snacks, gifts, wizard chess, and eating, playing, and chatting with him. He quickly became Ron's second best friend at school.

The first is Harry, a good gay friend is incomparable.

Zhang Rui once joked: "Potter, I did a divination for you that day and found that you will be with Weasley for the rest of your life."

"Really? That's great! I didn't have many friends before I came to Hogwarts. It's really a happy thing to be able to be with my good friends forever." Harry was quite happy, after all, Ron was his first a friend.

"I'm not talking about that kind of togetherness, but another kind of togetherness... You can understand it just by looking at Miss Granger, so if it's okay, you should read more books."

As for what kind of book I read, it’s hard to say. It covers a wide range of topics.

Hermione blushed and pretended to be angry: "I don't understand what you are saying, so don't disturb my study!"

It's like telling a funny joke. You understand it when others don't understand it. Especially when the opposite sex is present, you will be embarrassed to some extent. Miss Granger is a decent person, so she naturally pretends not to know.

Girls really mature early!

Zhang Rui sighed as he looked at Harry Ron who was still confused and even ran to ask Hermione for advice.

Seeing Zhang Rui's expression, Miss Granger became angry: "You come here to play every day, and I didn't even see you bring a book. What should I do with the final exam?"

I'm not here to find you. You like to stay here, and you don't enjoy having snot bubbles in your nose when you tell jokes? Now you blame me for affecting your study?

"Some knowledge cannot be learned in books. For example, do you know whether the first person to invent the broomstick was a man or a woman?"

Granger frowned: "The history of magic books only say that flying broomsticks have been around for a long time, but they don't mention who they are, let alone whether they are male or female..."

"I knew it must be a woman!" Zhang Rui said with certainty.

"Is it because witches have a longer history?"

Legends about wizards first appeared in the image of evil witches, so there is a saying that witches have a longer history.

"no!"

“Is it because women use brooms more?”

In ancient times, women did housework, so it is easy to associate brooms with women.

"Not at all."

The Hermione trio became interested and raised various conjectures, but Zhang Rui rejected them one by one.

"Because men don't think they need a stick when they fly."

Zhang Rui's somewhat colorful answer was more of a brain teaser than a correct answer.

However, none of the trio understood the beauty of it, which made Zhang Rui feel like a failure.

I'd better go and play with the seniors.

……

In his spare time, Zhang Rui plans to conduct research on the wand market.

Therefore, the "Hand Divination" every Thursday night was changed to "Wand Divination".

According to the theory of "Master Divination" Nicholas, each wand is unique and has a mind, and it is they who choose the wizard...

(Ollivander cursed, that’s not what you said in front of me last time!)

It doesn't matter, there is no truth in the mouth of a business boss. I will say whatever is useful to me. The key lies in the second half of the theory.

...The magic wand is also connected with the fate of the little wizard. By analyzing the magic wand, we can understand the future destiny of the little wizard to a certain extent.

The little wizards had already accepted the first half of Ollivander's theory, so they naturally easily accepted the private information contained in the second half of Zhang Rui's theory.

What's more, Nicholas's reputation as a master of divination is becoming more and more famous, so naturally many people believe in him.

So the original practice of touching hands and asking about age, body measurements, zodiac signs, and then analyzing love lines, life lines, and career lines has now been changed to touching hands and asking about the length of the wand, the material of the wand core, and how it feels to use it.

Senior sister's hands still have to be touched, otherwise there would be no fun in life.

Zhang Rui wrote down the length of each wand, its core, the wood used for its body, and the user's feelings.

This is first-hand information, and it is directly applied to the successful experience of the Ollivander family.

After all, the first step to commercial success is often copying (piracy), which saves a large investment in research from scratch.
