Hogwarts: The Wizarding World's First Capitalist

Hermione was still a little skeptical about Carl's words, there was nothing she could do as this guy was too hateful.

I always feel that the other party does so much just to get me away.

Even just to talk less to myself, am I so annoying?

Thinking of this, Hermione fell into deep self-doubt.

Just then, Cedric came running over excitedly with the Weasley twins.

Before the three men reached Karl, they immediately slammed on the brakes, and Cedric looked at Karl in surprise.

Wow, it’s only been one day and he’s already surrounded by girls?

The Weasley brothers were even more direct, with George being the first to joking.

"As expected of our king, he now has two beautiful ladies at once."

Fred also joined in.

"But I don't know which one is the king's queen?"

This joke made both Hermione and Hannah blush with shame, and Hermione could no longer stay there.

He looked at Karl fiercely, waved his little fist, and spoke in a threatening tone.

"You'd better not lie to me. I'll write to my parents tonight and buy everything you want in two days at the latest."

"But if I can't solve the problem you raised by then, I will definitely not let you go."

She yelled and ran away, and as she left, she bumped into the two Weasley brothers who were joking.

The two Weasley brothers were not angry when their shoulders were bumped. They immediately stood on both sides, like knights saluting the queen.

She crossed her right hands across her chest and bowed slightly to Hermione, which made Miss Beaver so shy that white smoke almost came out of her head, and she almost bumped into other people when she walked.

"You should know when to stop joking. You went a little too far this time."

Carl started to scold them directly, but the Weasley twins shrugged indifferently. George on the side took out a piece of paper with names written on it and handed it over.

On the other side, Fred seemed to know some secret. He squatted down and whispered in Carl's ear.

"I can 100% guarantee, based on my years of experience, that girl has a crush on you."

Carl took the paper and looked at Fred nonchalantly.

"You don't need to remind me that beautiful girls all over the world have a crush on handsome guys, especially me."

Such narcissistic words made the Weasley brothers' eyes twitch, and then Carl continued to add insult to injury.

"And according to an informed source who wishes to remain anonymous, you two haven't been in a relationship yet, right?"

"So you two are not qualified to make suggestions on this issue."

In one sentence, he broke through the defense of the two men, and George spoke loudly first.

"Bullshit, this is slander. How could we two brothers have no admirers given our charm? It's just... just..."

The self-confidence at the beginning and the stuttering at the end have completely revealed the truth.

Fred, who was standing aside, was also very angry, but when he saw Carl's enchanting face, he admitted that even he was a little moved.

What's more, those are innocent girls, so he stopped dwelling on this issue and asked further.

"Let's not discuss this. I have two requests. First, pay us the bill quickly. Second, can you reveal it?"

"The name of that well-informed person. We should thank him very much."

Carl just smiled at this. He carefully counted the names on the paper, and after he was clear, he looked at the two brothers.

"There are 75 students' signatures here in total. According to our previous agreement, I will pay you 75 gold galleons."

"As for your second question?"

At this point, Karl paused deliberately, hooked his fingers, and asked the two to put their faces close.

Make two people think that the other person intends to tell them the answer, but is just too embarrassed to say it out loud.

But in the end, Carl imitated Fred's previous whispering and whispered in their ears.

"I won't tell you."

"what!!!"

Just a few simple words, but with such destructive power, the moment George and Fred heard these words.

Finally realizing that he had been fooled by the guy in front of him again, George roared angrily.

Fred's eyes twitched. This strange scene made the Hufflepuff students who were dining nearby burst into laughter.

Even many Gryffindor students joined in the laughter.

After all, it is really interesting to see two troublemakers who play pranks on others every day being pranked like this.

Amidst the 'laughter and cheers', Fred was the first to react and he had to cut his losses immediately.

So he looked at Karl and said firmly.

"Tell me the guy's name quickly, and we can give you whatever you want."

Seeing that the two guys were already furious and their emotions had reached their peak, Carl didn't plan to tease them anymore.

He looked into the two people's eyes very seriously, stretched out his right hand, and rubbed his fingers.

"Simple, didn't you just earn 75 gold galleons from me? Give it to me and you will get what you want."

With just one sentence, everyone sitting next to Karl, as well as Cedric opposite him, fell silent.

Everyone focused their attention on the two brothers Carl and Weasley, looking at Carl's eyes.

Completely different from the previous time when the classmates who were pranked by the Weasley brothers looked at each other with angry and resentful eyes.

It was a complex emotion mixed with admiration and fear.

What the Weasley brothers expressed was more of a dissuasion. They vaguely felt the answer from Carl's mouth.

This is definitely not the result these two guys wanted, but the two brothers have been blinded by their emotions.

Who cares about all that? Fred immediately said loudly.

"It's a good deal. We don't want any compensation for this deal. Tell us the guy's name right away."

George also said on the side.

"That's right. Gold Galleons are no longer important now. We must find the person who slandered us."

Facing the two emotional brothers, Carl did not show any emotion. He slowly took out three pieces of parchment from his ring.

With extraordinary skill, he wrote the property transfer deed on it, and then handed it to the two brothers while giving it to Cedric.

"Let's be professional gentlemen. Make three copies. Senior Cedric will be a witness to this transaction."

"Let the three of us sign our names at the same time, and I will tell you the answer."

This action deepened the speculation of everyone present. Several Gryffindor students could not help but come over to persuade the Weasley brothers.

Hannah, who was next to Karl, was also shaking her head desperately, her two little lamb tail braids swinging back and forth, which was the biggest warning she had given.

But the two Weasley brothers on the side, like lambs bewitched by the devil, still walked into the trap step by step.

The two of them quickly signed their names on the contract and forced Cedric to sign his name as well.

After Carl signed, the contract was completed.

However, Carl asked the three to put away their respective contracts, and finally under the gaze of everyone.

He said lightly that this answer was worth 75 gold galleons.

"Professor Minerva McGonagall."
