Hogwarts: The Wizarding World's First Capitalist

Ah, this, Cedric hesitated to speak, he knew very well who the Potions Master Carl was talking about.

If it were yesterday, he would definitely persuade Carl not to offend Professor Snape.

But at this moment, he saw with his own eyes Carl's methods, as well as the black raven that was about to become the leader in the Owl Dormitory.

After putting together thousands of words, he could only stand up, pat Carl on the shoulder, and nod.

"I wish you success, but I hope you will be nice to Professor Snape, even though he dresses poorly and doesn't wash his hair."

"He is very mean to his classmates and often deducts points from us Hufflepuffs for no reason, but I know he is a good professor."

As he spoke, Cedric's old habit of being long-winded came back, and he kept on talking non-stop, saying good things about Professor Snape.

But because of Professor Snape's daily actions and his honest nature, during the process of speaking.

People always mention Professor Snape's various shortcomings, such as his always gloomy face, as if others owed him money.

Some say that he is too strict in teaching and has no consideration for students at all; some say that he is too protective and always criticizes students from other colleges.

He tried every possible way to deduct points from other colleges. Maybe it was because he hadn't vented his anger to anyone in a long time, and this guy was getting more and more outrageous.

The louder he spoke, the more emotional he became. Even his classmates next to him were desperately winking at him, signaling him to stop talking.

This guy also acted as if he didn't see anything until a voice as cold as iron came faintly from behind him.

"It seems that you have a lot of opinions about me, Mr. Diggory, or are you Hufflepuff students like him?"

Professor Snape appeared behind Cedric like a ghost.

His face was cold, and although he usually looked like this, one could still feel that he was angry.

Of course, the Hufflepuff students did not dare to encounter this bad luck, and they were even more afraid of the Potions class later.

Being bullied by Professor Snape, they opened their mouths to explain, but were scared back by his cold gaze.

Helplessly, under Cedric's leadership, everyone's attention was once again focused on Carl.

"Why----"

Carl could only sigh helplessly, put down the sandwich he had just taken a bite of, and looked at Professor Snape with some anger.

Just say it.

"Professor, are you guys free at noon today? Why do you like coming to our college so much? I want to have a good meal."

"Nothing?"

There was complete silence. This time, the entire auditorium was silent.

The students from the four colleges all turned their eyes to Carl, even the professors sitting above.

They also had an expression as if they had seen a ghost. It had been a long time since they saw a student like that in front of Professor Snape.

When speaking like this, most of the students' eyes were filled with fanatical admiration.

After all, many of them had heard about the back-to-school gift that Professor Snape gave to Carl.

Many students had originally planned to skip classes to watch Carl's first Potions class.

Now, I don’t have to skip classes and can watch the live broadcast directly.

"What do you mean by that? Don't you understand the word respect, Mr. Hohenzollern?"

Professor Snape had a cold face and looked directly into Carl's eyes.

"Before that, you hadn't officially enrolled yet, and we weren't in a teacher-student relationship. I could tolerate your insolence."

"But today, you must pay the price for your actions. Hufflepuff House will deduct..."

Seeing that Professor Snape was about to deduct points from his own college, Carl, who was just and had a strong sense of honor,

How could he allow this to happen? He simply waved his hand to interrupt the other person and showed that weird smile.

He said in a low voice.

"No need to be like this, I know you've always been thinking about that lady in your heart, I..."

"Shut up!!!"

A roar sounded, Professor Snape's face looked very scary, and he stared at Carl with his eyes.

He asked, squeezing out words from between his teeth.

"How do you know all this? What on earth do you want to do in Hogwarts?"

Faced with the questioning, Carl, who had been interrupted three times during his meal, became angry and spoke directly without any scruples.

"Don't worry about it. You will not be able to refuse the conditions I proposed. As for how I know it, there is always someone who knows any secret."

"I always have a way to find out these secrets."

These words immediately made Professor Snape turn his head and look at Dumbledore, who was sitting in the center of the uppermost part of the hall.

He stared at the other person with a deadly look as if he wanted to eat him.

Dumbledore was frightened by this look and the candy in his hand fell directly onto the plate.

The eyes hidden behind the half-moon glasses are full of confusion and grievance.

The old man looked at Karl dimly, with an indescribable feeling in his heart. Today he had been concerned about Karl.

Observe how this special student, Carl, gets along with his classmates on his first day at school and comes to the cafeteria for meals.

How come this time, I got blamed for no reason? This little bastard is just like that guy.

They can always control me easily. People from the Grindelwald family are all poisonous.

Professor Snape was very angry, after not getting the look he wanted from Dumbledore.

He did not bother with Carl any more and just turned around and left. His aura of keeping strangers away and impending anger made all the little wizards get out of the way.

After his back disappeared, Cedric confirmed it again and again, then sat down and patted his chest to let out a breath.

He had finally passed this level, but after thinking for a while, he looked at Karl again and couldn't help asking.

"If you do this, how are we going to proceed with this matter? Do you want to apologize to the other party?"

"Have a meal!!!"

Carl was also very angry. He was just eating a meal and had so many things to do. How could he be a good Hufflepuff?

And doesn’t this guy know that the core purpose of Hufflepuff House is to eat?

Karl's roar put an end to the cafeteria turmoil, and all the students dared not say another word.

Everyone lowered their heads to eat their meals, a lunch that usually took an hour or two to finish.

After this incident, it was declared over in just fifteen minutes.

Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall left in a hurry, as if they had something urgent to discuss.

Students from other colleges left even earlier. After all, eating in silence is not as fun as discussing today's gossip in the common room.

Finally, Carl and the first-year Hufflepuff students were the only ones left in the hall.

Everyone looked at Karl with some fear, and no one dared to speak to him in advance, for fear of offending him.

As Hannah was the only classmate sitting next to Carl and she was a girl, she had no choice but to ask.

"So, what should we do next?"

Faced with this question, Carl's eyelids twitched wildly. It was all Professor Snape's fault, as he had ruined his image of being gentle, considerate and kind.

It collapsed completely in an instant, and what was even more infuriating was that the dog system in my mind kept messing around.
