Chapter 401: The Heartbeat of the Weasley Twins!!
“Hey! Toby, Jamie. ”
Fred and George saw Toby and Jamie, greeted happily, and trotted over.
“How did you come up with the idea of opening a store?”
Fred asked curiously, but the envy in his and George’s eyes could not be hidden, they had always wanted to open their own magic item store, but because of funds and other reasons, they had never been able to do so.
“Just to dispose of the inventory in hand and make some small money by the way, you know, Jie Kill and I are both studying alchemy, and now we have a lot of alchemy items in our hands, it would be a pity if these things were placed there, it would be better to sell them for some money.”
Toby said.
“I really envy that you have your own store, Fred and I want to drop out of school and open a store.”
George said.
“Mr. Weasley and Mrs. Weasley will not agree, and if you want to open a shop, you should also learn a little more, and it takes a lot of knowledge to make magic items.”
Toby said.
“Of course we know that Mom and Dad have always wanted us to work at the Ministry of Magic after graduation like Percy, but we have no interest at all.”
Fred said.
“Percy is proud now, he successfully entered the Ministry of Magic and now works in the Department of International Magical Cooperation.”
George said with a shrug, looking a little disdainful.
“By the way, how did you think about that, I know that you also have a lot of inventory on hand now, instead of just putting it there, it is better to sell it in my store, and you can sell it for a few dollars.”
Toby said.
“Toby, is anyone really going to buy those props of ours?”
George was a little unconfident.
“Don’t worry, as long as the publicity is in place, even if it is a bunch of, I can package it and sell it, this time let you see, what is the god of marketing.”
Toby said confidently.
In terms of the backward environment of the wizarding world, those merchants from the Muggle world can also make a lot of money when they come here.
The Muggle world is changing and evolving with the times, and instead of improving, the wizarding world is regressing day by day.
“Toby, where is your shop?”
Fred asked curiously, and George was curious too.
“Since you are so curious, let’s take you to see it.”
Toby said with a smile.
“Jamie, aren’t you leaving?”
George saw that Jamie was still in place, and couldn’t help asking.
“You guys go first, I still have to wait for someone here, and I’ll go and meet you in a moment.”
Jamie said.
Toby left the Leaky Cauldron with the twins Fred and George, and walked forward after entering Diagon Alley, which is now summer vacation, and Diagon Alley is still lively, wizards come and go.
Moreover, this year coincides with the Quidditch World Cup in the Eagle Country, wizards from all over the world are coming, although the Quidditch World Cup has not yet begun, but those wizards will also come to visit Diagon Alley.
After all, Diagon Alley is the most prosperous commercial street in the wizarding world of the Eagle Country.
Toby and the three of them passed one shop after another and continued down Diagon Alley
Walk, until you come to the edge of Diagon Alley, the location here is already very remote.
“Magic Alchemy Shop!”
Fred and George looked up at the store’s signboard in front of them.
“Toby, is this the place?”
George asked.
“Yes, this is the store, although the location is a little remote, but it is always in the bustling Diagon Alley, what do you think?”
“The shop is divided into two floors, the lower floor can be used as the façade of the shop, and the upper floor can also be used for people, there are four rooms, each room can live two people.”
Toby introduced.
“Very good, we also want to rent such a shop to open our shop in the future.”
Fred nodded and said.
“If you want to rent a shop, I can rent this shop to you, and the rent can be cheaper.”
Toby said with a smile.
“Toby, you’re not kidding, are you? This is your shop, would you like to rent this shop to us? ”
George and Fred were quite surprised, although the shop was on the edge of Diagon Alley, it was in Diagon Alley after all, and the house on this side of Diagon Alley was infinitely expensive.
“To be honest, Jamie and I have no interest in opening a shop, if you are willing to rent this shop after graduation, I will rent it to you, and if you have a better place, then I will rent this shop to other wizards.”
Toby said.
“Oh! Of course we are willing to rent this shop. ”
Fred hurriedly said, you must know that the shops on this side of Diagon Alley are difficult to find, if you rent other shops, the price is expensive, not to mention, whether people are willing to rent is still a problem.
Now there is a ready-made shop in front of them, although the location is a little remote, but they know the bottom line, if they don’t agree to such a good thing, then they are fools.
“Then let’s go ahead and take a look now…”
Toby said.
The three entered the shop, and Fred and George were surprised and surprised by the decoration of the shop, which they had never seen before.
“The decoration in this shop was done by Jamie and me, what do you think!?”
Toby asked with a smile.
“Oh, very good, I haven’t seen this kind of renovation, but how to say it, there is an indescribable feeling, much better than the other shops in Diagon Alley.”
Fred said that George on the side agreed, and they felt that this shop and the other shops in Diagon Alley were like entering two worlds.
“I’ll take you to the second floor, which is a rest area.”
Toby said.
While Toby was taking Fred and George around the shop, Jamie in the Leaky Cauldron Bar was waiting for Lupin, along with Sirius and Harry.
“Hey! Jamie, long time no see! ”
Sirius greeted with a smile.
“Professor Lupin, Sirius, Harry.”
Jamie nodded at the trio.
“I’m not a professor anymore, you can call me Lupin if you want, or you can call me Remus.”
Lupin said.
“Although you are no longer a professor, after all, you taught us Defense Against the Dark Arts for a year, and I don’t think it’s okay to call you a professor.”
Jamie said.
“Yes, Professor Lupin, it’s a shame that you can’t teach us next school year, I think you are the best Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.”
Harry was also on the sidelines to help.
“Don’t worry, Professor Dumbledore will definitely find a good Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for you in 1.7.”
Lupin said.
“Professor Lupin, you should be clear about the purpose of inviting you here this time, Toby and I both think you are very suitable to be the store manager, if you are not busy now.”
Jamie said.
“You should know that I am a werewolf, and even if so, you are willing to do so, not afraid that I will cause you trouble?”
Lupin asked, still very concerned about his werewolf status and didn’t want to cause trouble for others.
“Professor Lupin, I think you’re thinking too much, the job of the store manager is to coordinate the overall situation, not to let you work as a clerk to sell things.”
Jamie said, he looked at the wizards in the Leaky Cauldron Bar more and more noisy, and frowned slightly.
“Well, Professor Lupin, this is not the place to talk, let’s go to the shop first, and then let’s talk in detail.”
