Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?
Chapter 134: The Black Family's Assistance
In fact, I asked them, although the salary is indeed low, they provide clean beds and plenty of food, and the working environment is not too bad. This is already a great thing. As far as I know, almost no other place will hire you if they know you are a werewolf. Therefore, everyone, including me, has to hide their identity to work. Even if everyone knows that they may be werewolves, no one will say it out loud. Once it is said out loud, the job will be gone. Therefore, the werewolf registry has not been able to function effectively.
I guess when Voldemort's werewolf community collapsed, they probably picked people who looked serious and responsible. Although their labor was cheap, they knew that having a job was good, so the werewolves worked very hard. They were energetic and worked very hard. People who worked there also asked me if they could retire here if they couldn't work anymore, and I agreed of course.
They are very knowledgeable about crops, which helps me a lot. The soil improvement work is progressing rapidly. Even if I read the pioneer diary, I don’t understand it very well, and when I go to the hardware store, I don’t know what to buy because there are too many choices. Some of them are literate, and they read the pioneer diary and introduced the farm suppliers they usually cooperate with. Now we purchase materials from them.
When I tried to re-establish the herb garden, they reminded me that the soil mentioned in the diary must be generated in a magical place, so soil purchased from a Muggle store would not work. I agreed that if I could establish a herb garden, I could earn some pocket money without having to work outside. I wanted Snape to check the herbs grown, and if they met his standards, he might buy them. I also asked Snape to make a list of popular herbs on the market, as well as useful herbs in life and raw materials for experimental medicines, so that I could grow them myself.
We decided to learn to read, so we arranged time to learn every day between the cultivation. We bought fruit tree pruning tools, but we had no idea how to use them. Thanks to their help, the preparation of the orchard has made great progress. Although they told me that it would be more convenient to use magic pruning, many people were not used to it, so they also used the tools I bought. It really helped a lot. The orchard is very large, and the farm workers were surprised to ask, "Did you live here alone before? What a strange person... There are many kinds of fruit trees, and I learned how to care for them according to their advice. We also bought a lot of preservation bottles to prepare for processing and storage of fruits after harvest. Now I am looking forward to the harvest.
The work on the fields went quite smoothly. Although everyone did it haphazardly at first, we were reminded that this was not the right thing to do, so we started over together. We got permission from our pureblood noble masters to get seeds and seedlings from them, and they even helped us buy them. The farm tools were also given to us by them because they were no longer in use. We saved some of our meager wages and bought a few pairs of livestock, and the local residents taught us how to raise them. We also learned magic that helped with farming. Everyone built a barn together. Thanks to their help, our self-sufficient life gradually took shape.
We are now discussing whether to expand the facilities, as more people who live away from home may want to come here to spend their old age. We will contribute to further improve the facilities, within our means.
In the wizarding world, it is not easy to find a formal job except in places run by pure-blood nobles, but it is not too difficult to find a job in the Muggle world. More and more people have a stable life by finding jobs in the Muggle world. Sirius also recruited some unemployed werewolves for the construction project of the Black Family Foundation. Those who have a serious work attitude are assigned to manage the purchased land, and those who are literate are hired as clerical staff.
Some people also got job opportunities through their connections with pure-blood nobles. Although these places are short of staff and the salary is not high, they provide shelter and food, and they are all werewolves, so many people still choose to work there. Some people still live in cheap hotels in Noct Alley, continue to do the work assigned by Noct Alley, or work in suspicious shops. Although some people have behaved improperly in the past, perhaps because they have finally found a place where they can live in peace and they don't want to mess everything up, so almost no one causes trouble anymore, or even almost no one.
You can choose where to work, but the only requirement is that you must return to the island every full moon. This rule alone gives everyone more choices. Just being able to choose makes people feel happy. Maybe those who look rough feel the same way.
Of course, some people choose to focus their lives on the island and go to work from here every day. Because there are several children, those who usually live with their families will receive education from their families at home. As for the education of the children who stay on the island, everyone discussed and decided that although we can consider building educational facilities, since discrimination against werewolves is still deeply rooted, if an educational institution is established in Noct Lane, let them go there to study, and before that, they should be taught by themselves on the island. Based on this, I accelerated the preparation of the Noct Lane educational facility. After all, in Noct Lane, even if people guess that the other party may be a werewolf, they will pretend not to see it and will not explore too much. This tacit understanding applies not only to adults, but also to children. Although the situation is not stable enough, we plan to open the Noct Lane facility when the time is right. So I asked Sirius for help, and he quickly agreed.
Sure enough, I made good friends. To make these friends, you have to go to Hogwarts. Although it feels a bit deliberate that Sirius, James and I were assigned to the same dormitory, it is a good thing for me. Although there are many suspicious things about the old man, the result is good, right?
This island is bigger than expected, and it takes a lot of manpower to maintain it. Initially, we relied on the assistance of the Black family, but now everyone is working and relying on the money and materials provided to maintain operations. Although there are some people who do not go out to work, they are responsible for managing the island, continuing construction work, taking care of fields and livestock, making food reserves, cooking, etc. Not only are we not in deficit, but we can also save some money. Although the construction funds still come from the foundation, we are self-sufficient in daily life. We are currently busy with the replanning of the island and have no time to take care of the herb garden. Because the maintenance of the herb garden requires a lot of learning, we have only planted simple herbs learned from Professor Sprout for the time being.
We are now able to survive even without Sirius's additional assistance. Although he helped to purchase the initial supplies, we are now discussing what to build and buy next and deciding how to use these resources with the money we have saved and the support funds from the Foundation. The Foundation's funds are mainly used to maintain the chimney network. We have installed this network in several locations, so the expenses are not small. Initially, Sirius paid for these expenses personally, but now it is completely covered by the Foundation.
Some people don't have to go out to work. They are finally freed from the hard days in the past and live a life of doing nothing all day. However, they don't waste anything. After all, they have experienced so many difficult times before, and now they can be self-sufficient, so no one blames them.
The people who used to live in the forest of Hogwarts were very simple and unguarded. If possible, I hope they can live quietly on the island. Although there are not many werewolves going out to work, they are all very hardworking and can always be seen busy on the island. There are many things to do on the island, and I also told them that managing this place is their job. Everyone is very worried about them going out to work, afraid that they will be deceived and become victims. Everyone hopes that they can maintain this innocence. However, overprotection is not good, so for those who want to go out to work, we only let them go to places where there are werewolf compatriots working. Although the management work here is enough for them to do, they seem to think that they should at least earn enough money to support the werewolves who protect them. To be honest, just managing this island is enough for them... Strangely, those seemingly rude people take good care of them and even help them avoid being deceived by bad people.
