Hogwarts: I have graduated before the system came

Chapter 45 Douglas: I almost got fired!

After leaving Professor McGonagall's office.

After Douglas asked a Hufflepuff student in the hall.

Then he walked towards the greenhouse behind the castle.

A circle of dyer's broom was planted outside the first greenhouse. The flowers of this plant have anesthetic effect.

If someone accidentally inhales too much pollen, the body will be so excited that they will lose consciousness.

When Professor Sprout was managing the greenhouse, he saw Douglas who had entered the greenhouse.

Hastily shouted:

"Oh my God, Douglas, do you want me to put up a sign on the greenhouse door that says Douglas Holmes is not allowed in?

Mrs. Poppy asked me to plant these cranberries for diarrhea and vomiting. "

While talking, he ran over and dragged Douglas to the door of the greenhouse in disgust.

I was afraid that every time Douglas took a step forward, he would pick something to eat.

Douglas hurriedly rubbed the cranberry berries he picked, and stuffed them skillfully into his mouth.

Then hey hey.

Professor Sprout glared at him and said helplessly:

"Don't be afraid, the berries are poisonous."

Douglas shrugged and said proudly:

"You don't even look at whose student I am, but cranberry berries have great medicinal properties.

Especially good for the eyes. "

Professor Sprout interrupted Douglas:

"Well, it seems that after you graduated, you didn't forget all this knowledge.

Of course, I want you to remember more than just being able to eat.

Tell me, what are you looking for? "

Douglas first glanced around and saw no one else.

He whispered to Professor Sprout and said:

"Professor, I would like to sponsor a batch of Nimbus 2001 for our college's Quidditch team..."

Professor Sprout looked at Douglas suspiciously:

"You want to sponsor seven Nimbus 2001s to the Academy?

Douglas, since when did you pay attention to the Hufflepuff Quidditch team?

But this is a good thing, but why are you sneaking around. "

Douglas blinked and reminded:

"Of course to prevent the secret from being leaked, what if other academies know that we have such good equipment and follow suit?"

Professor Sprout gave Douglas a contemptuous look.

"You think I don't know?

At noon today, Cedric came to tell me that Slytherin had prepared a secret weapon.

Happens to be Nimbus 2001...

However, do you have that many Galleons?

I heard that you have been living on the Muggle side, and Gringotts has always had strict restrictions on large amounts of Muggle currency. "

Douglas nodded quickly: "I also have a lot of money in the wizarding world, enough to pay for these broomsticks."

Gringotts has always had strict restrictions on the exchange of Muggle currency for wizard currency.

Not everyone can go to Gringotts to exchange Galleons with Muggle currency.

First of all, Muggles are not eligible to make any exchanges at Gringotts.

Second, Muggle students at Hogwarts can exchange a certain percentage of Galleons every year.

Third, if adult wizards want to exchange wizard currency, they must have a source of Muggle currency income, and non-normal sources of income will not be exchanged.

Moreover, the number of exchanges is strictly limited, and cannot exceed one thousand Galleons per year.

(Gringotts has various identifying magic contract spells that can detect the source of funds.)

Fourth, there are no restrictions on wizards exchanging Muggle currency.

Among them, the third one is the most critical. It completely limits the impact of the Muggle economy on the wizard economy.

Due to the cultural differences between the two worlds, many wizards live unsatisfactorily even in the wizarding world.

But when they want to live in the Muggle world, they will find that without magic, their life will be even more unsatisfactory.

Unless they give up their dignity as a wizard, re-learn Muggle knowledge and then find a job, obviously, basically no one will choose to do this. After all, this is equivalent to their seven years in Hogwarts, which is wasted.

It is even more difficult for them to find a manual job in the Muggle world.

After Sprout looked at Douglas with strange eyes, he seemed relieved,

Then said:

"Then do as you said, even if it is the compensation you made for those things back then!

Just ask someone to deliver the broom to my office, and I'll arrange it when the time comes!

If you have nothing else to do, just leave.

It's okay, don't go to the greenhouse!

As a professor at Hogwarts, you have to look like a professor, why is it still the same as when you were in school. "

After speaking, Professor Sprout was about to turn around and leave, leaving Douglas stunned.

That's it?

compensate?

Professor Sprout, who had just entered the greenhouse, said to Douglas:

"please wait a moment!"

Douglas was overjoyed, is he planning to reward himself?

Soon Professor Sprout came out with a basket.

"Madame Poppy doesn't need that many cranberry berries, so go ahead and eat them.

Thank you for your service to Hufflepuff.

If you really like eating this stuff, I'll arrange for someone to grow some over there in the orchard. "

After speaking, Professor Sprout turned and left.

Douglas couldn't understand why Professor Sprout didn't want to award himself an honorary alumni medal.

No wonder, very few graduates sponsored Hogwarts...

and many more......

Douglas, who was walking back with a basket, suddenly thought of a question.

The operating funds of Hogwarts are basically sponsored by the school board.

I am a Muggle-born wizard who suddenly sponsors a batch of brooms for the school.

In a sense, wouldn't it be that the cakes of twelve school boards were touched.

Then Douglas felt a wave of fear.

He suddenly understood why Professor Sprout defined his actions as compensation, not sponsorship.

I also understand that Professor Sprout did not mention any commendation for him.

If he didn't do this, he might be complained by some students' parents the next day.

In line with the purpose of everything for the students, they are likely to force Principal Dumbledore to expel himself.

(The school board only has the power to appoint and suspend the principal, and the school's teachers are appointed and suspended by the principal.)

After all, the school board doesn't want to see someone bypassing them to sponsor Hogwarts.

Douglas returned to the office with fear after a while. If he was fired because of this, it would be too wrong to work part-time.

After returning to the office, the first thing is to drink a cup of tea to calm down the shock.

Not long after, Professor McGonagall came over and invited Douglas to have a cup of afternoon tea at the Three Broomsticks bar in Hogsmeade tomorrow.

Douglas agreed when he heard that several Hogwarts professors were going back.

After Professor McGonagall left, Douglas couldn't help but think of Ms. Rosmerta, who still had a graceful figure.

Whose youth has no dreams.

Who's teenager doesn't have feelings.
