Hogwarts God of Ice and Fire

On the other hand, after achieving her goal, Irina did not just run away, but planned to stay and spend a happy weekend in Hogsmeade with Harry and the other two.

After all, even if she had an ulterior motive, the friendship between them could not be faked.

After Harry came back with four cups of ice cream, the four of them enjoyed their ice cream happily. Harry suggested taking a stroll around Hogsmeade village, and this suggestion was supported by the other three.

Soon, Irina, Hermione, Harry and Ron walked onto the streets of Hogsmeade village, chatting and laughing as they walked along the street.

"This is... a branch of Weasley's Arms Store?!"

However, when they reached the back part of Hogsmeade village, a sign flashing with a faint golden light appeared, which made Ron's eyes pop out of his head in surprise.

The golden sign had the words "Weasley's Arms Store" written on it in large letters, and behind these words was a small "branch".

Irina was also a little surprised. She said, "It seems that Fred and George's arms expansion is in full swing. When I came to Hogsmeade Village half a month ago, there were two potion shops next to each other!"

Yes, the Weasleys' Arms branch located in Hogsmeade village was built by Fred and George who directly purchased two stores and then connected and merged them together. No wonder the store looks so big.

The entrance of this branch was crowded with wizards. If Irina guessed correctly, nearly one-fifth of the wizards in Hogsmeade were probably gathered in this branch of Weasley's Arms!

When the four of them lined up and walked into the Weasleys' Arms branch, Ron's eyes widened again: "Bill?! Aren't you a curse breaker at Gringotts?!"

Ron's loud voice attracted a lot of people's attention, and Irina, Hermione and Harry also showed surprise after following Ron's gaze.

The tall and straight man standing behind the counter, directing the work of a dozen hired clerks, was Bill Weasley, the eldest son of the Weasley family!

Bill Weasley previously worked as a curse breaker for Gringotts in Egypt. Irina, Harry, and Hermione also met Bill during the Quidditch World Cup two years ago.

Bill noticed Irina and the others who followed Ron in. He smiled at them and explained, "I heard that Fred and George opened an arms store in Diagon Alley. The business is so prosperous that they are going to open a branch."

"But they had no one they trusted to manage the branch, so I came back. After all, the civilian munitions made by Fred and George can protect ordinary wizards to a certain extent, allowing them to have a certain ability to save their lives in front of the Death Eaters."

Bill said so.

After hearing Bill's explanation, Irina and others nodded in understanding.

After Voldemort's resurrection, Bill joined the Order of the Phoenix and became a member of the camp against Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

It is not surprising that Bill made such a choice when he learned that the civilian munitions sold by Fred and George could enhance people's self-protection capabilities and, to a certain extent, fight against Voldemort.

Bill continued, "Of course, this branch only sells civilian munitions, which is also to share the customer flow of Weasley's Arms Shop in Diagon Alley. As for the military munitions that connect with the Ministry of Magic, the Auror Office, the Order of the Phoenix and other forces, Fred and George's store in Diagon Alley is still responsible for it."

Ron asked curiously, "By the way, how much do Fred and George pay you? I remember when you were a curse breaker at Gringotts, your salary seemed quite high. I guess the salary here should be higher, right?"

Hearing Ron's question, Bill's face broke into a sincere smile.

Bill smiled and said, "Fred and George agreed to give me 50% of the net profit of this branch as my salary. According to the sales of the Hogsmeade branch of Weasley's Arms Shop, I should be able to earn 200,000 gold Galleons this month!"

"Two hundred thousand gold Galleons?!" Ron exclaimed. His eyes widened and almost popped out of their sockets. "That's enough to buy my life!"

You know, the Weasley family’s vault couldn’t even hold a single gold Galleon.

As the youngest boy in the Weasley family, Ron even used old books left by his brothers, and even his pet was given to him by Percy because he didn't want it anymore!

Including the ghouls in the attic, there are already double-digit people in their family, but they can only share an owl that is so old that it can hardly fly. Their life is even more difficult than those young wizards from the Muggle world.

Now, Fred and George have been studying alchemy with Wallisson Green for less than a year, but they have completely changed the current situation of the Weasley family!

Even the Hogsmeade branch of the Weasleys Arms Shop run by Bill could earn a full 200,000 Galleons from 50% of its monthly net profit. So, it is conceivable how much Galleons would end up in Fred and George's pockets? !

Ron felt dizzy. Was he going to become a rich man?!

Seeing Ron like this, Bill had a malicious smile on his face, and he whispered like a devil: "By the way, Fred and George told me not to give the money I earned to you. They said they want you to be self-reliant..."

Bill's words shattered Ron's beautiful dream. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and said indignantly: "Why? I'm your brother! My own brother!"

Bill spread his hands and said innocently, "Then go talk to Fred and George. Why are you talking to me?"

Ron fell on the sofa provided for customers in the store in grief and anger, and his eyes seemed to have lost their luster.

Bill ignored Ron's mischief and looked at the remaining three people with a smile as warm as spring breeze. He took the initiative to ask, "Irina, Hermione, Harry, do you want me to introduce you to the civilian munitions in the store?"

Harry hesitated, but his big eyes revealed his curiosity.

Even though his magic level was already high enough, Harry still wanted to see something as cool as an alchemical gun.

The same is true for Hermione. Being in the Muggle world, she is well aware of the power of firearms. She is curious about what changes will occur when Muggle firearms are combined with wizard magic through alchemy.

Finally, Irina said generously: "Then it would be disrespectful to refuse it!"
