The Magical Principles of Natural Philosophy at Hogwarts

It is now 1993 years.

The Christmas holiday was over, and as the Hogwarts Express entered the station opposite the Black Lake, the students returning home for the holidays returned to school, and the castle became as lively as ever.

Erwin found the Weasley brothers and borrowed the Marauder's Map from them. On this magical parchment, Erwin noticed that Dumbledore had left Hogwarts, and the headmaster had been busy all the time.

He is not greedy for power, but he is earnestly fulfilling his obligations as the strongest wizard in Britain. Even though he is old, he still works tirelessly.

But even so, some people still regard him as an obstacle, and his existence will inevitably hinder the interests of some people.

The Dark Lord does not abide by the order, people are afraid of him and dare not disobey him, but Dumbledore abides by the secular order and rules, and some people use the rules to deal with him.

This world is really ridiculous.

When they borrowed the map from the Weasley brothers, they kindly invited Erwin to taste the gadget they researched-fart taffy.

The taste is no different from ordinary taffy, but within an hour after eating it, you can't help but continue to fart continuously. Since the symptoms are relatively mild, the victims don't even think that there is something wrong with the sugar they eat.

A simple trick prop.

Erwin politely declined. "You've been tinkering with this all this time?" He asked curiously.

"Not only this, but also quick-acting skipping candy and slug gummy candy...but only fart candy succeeded." Fred shrugged.

"We're going to make it and sell it to other people to see if we can make some pocket money," George said.

The Weasley family had many children and their lives were tight. At this time, the two brothers already had the idea of ​​finding a living for themselves.

"These things shouldn't be uncommon? I remember they sold them in Diagon Alley." Erwin didn't intend to pour cold water on them, but he still told the truth.

"Actually Zonko's Joke Shop in Hogsmeade sells them, so we're going to sell them cheaper."

They are very clear that when the product itself does not have a competitive advantage, it can only fight a price war.

"I have a suggestion. If you want to earn pocket money, besides developing joke products yourself, you might as well start a small business." Erwin thought for a while, and then said.

"What business?" Fred and George came to their senses immediately.

"Haven't you ever thought about using it to earn some extra income?" Erwin pointed at the Marauder's Map.

"Could it be possible to rent it out to other students? That's not okay." George didn't realize it yet.

"Using the Marauder's Map, you can go to Hogsmeade anytime, right?" Erwin reminded.

"Yeah, and then?" George still didn't understand.

But Fred already understood, "You mean reselling?"

"That's right." Erwin nodded.

Compared with normal schools, Hogwarts obviously lacks a canteen. Students in schools with closed management have a strong desire to consume. From a business perspective, the hundreds of students in the castle can already form a small market. up.

According to the Hogwarts school regulations, only students above the third grade can go to Hogsmeade for consumption on Saturdays, and students in the first and second grades are not even eligible to go.If a student had a sudden craving for butterbeer Monday through Friday, he had to live with it.

This is where the opportunity lies.

"Sometimes people ask us to bring things for them when they go to Hogsmeade, and we have actually considered the possibility of charging." Fred said: "But not to mention hurting feelings, the main problem is how much should we charge for bringing things once?" Money? How many nats? Then we can't earn a Galleon after working so hard. And if we want a Sickle, it's too much."

What he was talking about was actually the problem of transportation costs. The brothers only had four hands, so they couldn't carry many things back and forth at one time.Therefore, it is impossible to buy a large amount of goods from Hogsmeade and bring them back to Hogwarts for retail.

What's more, they have no principal.

But Erwin had already thought of them.

"Wait for me," Erwin said.

He went back to the bedroom and pulled out his suitcase.

"The traceless stretch is embedded with the traceless stretch." Erwin showed them the capacity of the suitcase, "so it can hold things close to two hundred times its volume, with built-in weight-reducing runes, and it has the function of automatic follow-up."

This auto-follow function was added to it by Erwin, which he practiced when he was studying with Nicole Flamel.

Fred and George looked at each other, and after a while, Fred said, "Well, this will indeed solve the problem..."

"But such a high-end suitcase should cost hundreds of Galleons... Is it suitable for us to do this kind of small business..." George was a little powerless to complain.

"I don't use this thing for the time being, and it's still idle if I'm idle, so I might as well lend it to you," Erwin said.

This is the truth. With the LeMay Cabin, this high-end suitcase that was bought with a huge sum of money can only be left in the dormitory to eat ashes. Its main function in the future will be to deceive people and prevent Erwin from easily It was clearly revealed that he had a super alchemy container.

"I still don't feel good," Fred shook his head. "We can't afford to pay for such a valuable thing if we accidentally damage it."

"That's how it is, even if I take a stake in this business, we will be a partner." Erwin gave a feasible suggestion.

The two brothers discussed it and decided it was okay.

In the end, Irvine provided the principal and at the same time took the suitcase as an asset and acquired 20.00% of the shares.

During the conversation, he was surprised to find that the Weasley brothers were quite familiar with business rules.

The 20.00% stake is more of a symbolic meaning. Erwin estimated that the monthly profit of ten Galleons would be good for this speculative business. After all, the market for it is only a few hundred students.

He really doesn't care about the money now.

The reason for making such a charitable investment is the same as giving Percy five hundred Galleons for nothing. It is based on the principle of making more friends. As a newcomer to the wizarding world, Erwin needs Friends, because the pure-bloods headed by the Malfoy family are natural enemies for him who was born as a Muggle.

No matter how distressed the Weasley family is, they are also an orthodox wizarding family.

They are also the only orthodox wizarding family that Erwin can contact and show kindness to him.

Giving money directly is basically equivalent to not having friendship, but investing in a partnership is a completely different nature.

"In this case, you should earn some pocket money, and at the same time have funds to conduct research on new joke products."

Of course, the Weasley brothers would not be so stupid that they could not see that they had taken advantage of it. The two brothers discussed it and handed the Marauder's Map to Erwin.

"You took a lot of risk by giving us the suitcase, and we can't let you suffer. We don't have any valuables, so let's mortgage the Marauder's Map to you. If we accidentally damage the suitcase, the map There is no need to return it to us," Fred said.

Erwin was quite surprised by the high EQ of the two brothers. Obviously, they are people with backbone. It seems that their parents have raised them well in terms of values.

So Erwin didn't refuse.

"Then I'll take it."
