Chapter 198 You Are so Showy, Why Don’t You Sell Arms?

However, Ivan thought about it carefully and felt that this kind of character-like thing should not be used to make magic props.

Ivan is still confident that he can tell this.

After ruling out one possibility, Ivan saw that George and Fred had no clue, so he stopped asking questions and turned to talk about the business model of the Magic Wheezes Workshop.

George and Fred even proposed to formally hire Ivan as a special consultant of Magic Wheezes and own one-third of the shares of Magic Wheezes.

"Are you sure? I, the special adviser, don't seem to have done anything." Ivan was very surprised.

The research on these magic props was completed by George and Fred, so Ivan did not want to take advantage of them.

"Of course, this was decided by Fred and I together. You have contributed so many creative ideas to us before, but you have helped us a lot." George nodded and said.

Fred also added.

"Besides, we didn't thank you for helping us get the order from the Ministry of Magic during the summer vacation, otherwise mother would have burned all our research results."

After saying this, George and Fred looked at each other and smiled, told Ivan the interesting things that happened at the Burrow, and finally said jokingly.

"When Mom saw the fifty gold galleons you gave us, she thought we had done something bad. She didn't quite believe it when I told her that it was the Ministry of Magic that gave us the deposit."

Ivan didn't expect that he asked Maca to send gold galleons, and actually let Mrs. Weasley accept George and Fred's research work. He remembered that Mrs. Weasley hated them most for not doing their jobs properly.

"So, you are completely free and can do research at will?" Ivan was sincerely happy for the two of them.

"Absolutely" Fred nodded.

But soon, Fred wilted again like an eggplant beaten by frost, and said with a smack. "But my mother requires that all our homework this semester must be above E (exceeds expectations), otherwise we will not be allowed to study."

Ivan shrugged and said that there was nothing he could do, and that George and Fred's academic performance was actually pretty good.

But when they are doing research and studying at the same time, it is really difficult for them to have grades above E in all subjects.

After being depressed for a while, George and Fred quickly adjusted.

We are still far away from the end of the semester, and it will still be too late no matter how hard we work by then.

George stopped thinking about these annoying things and spoke to Ivan. "So you deserve one-third of the shares."

"Okay, since you said so." In view of this, Ivan did not refuse.

Based on his status as a special adviser, Ivan would not simply use some theoretical knowledge he had seen in his previous life to deal with them, but would seriously give them advice.

For example, in the early days, magic tricks workshops could rely on "practical" props such as automatic answering quills and quick-acting skipping candies to quickly expand sales.

Doing homework and attending classes are the biggest headaches for most little wizards.

The Quidditch match that will be held soon is also a great opportunity for Ivan to promote and sell joke magic products.

For example, get some small props for loudspeakers, or colorful flags that can display the name of the team. I believe most of the little wizards who like to watch football will buy it.

Improve the boom fireworks into celebratory fireworks. The winning college will definitely need this to celebrate.

Ivan kept talking, and George and Fred soon joined in the discussion.

"In that case, someone has bought our big shit eggs. Those colleges that lost the competition must need this to vent their anger." George suddenly thought of this.

"Yes! Boom Fireworks can actually be used to hit people. We can also sell some to the little wizards from the opposing colleges and let them fight each other!" Fred became more and more excited as he talked.

Ivan stared at the two of them blankly, speechless for a moment.

You are so good, why do you learn magic? Why not become an arms dealer?

It’s sure to make a lot of money!

However, Ivan had to admit that the two people's ideas were indeed good, so he participated in discussing some details of the sale.

After chatting for a while, Fred, who still had something to say, suddenly said mysteriously.

"By the way, speaking of the Quidditch game, why don't we have a gambling game to make a lot of money like we did last time? I'll do it this time. It just so happens that I don't have to compete or train, so I have plenty of time."

Ivan was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Fred with a strange expression. No wonder Fred gave up so readily when he joined the team. It turned out to be this idea!

But after hearing what Fred said, Ivan was somewhat moved. No one can have too much gold Galleons.

Even though he had researched a lot of magic props a few months ago, and the sales were very popular, this was regarded as the store's profit, and Ivan could not use it at will, and it was impossible for him to pay for various research expenses at home every time. .

The money gained from selling Wolfsbane potion is his own.

However, due to the high cost of early publicity, most of Jin Gallon was spent on publicity, otherwise the Daily Prophet would not have reported on him every day.

Furthermore, in the wizarding world, werewolves are found not just in the British Isles, but throughout Europe and even the world, so publicity is a huge expense.

More importantly, if you want to move the store out of Knockturn Alley and open it to Diagon Alley, you need at least 20,000 gold galleons.

This is why Ivan is very concerned about the newly opened magic trick workshop.

There are thousands of young wizards in the seven grades of the four major houses of Hogwarts. They can make a lot of money every year just by selling these props.

"What do you think? Fred and I can contribute a hundred gold galleons as the principal." Compared with last year, when he saved only five gold galleons as the principal through frugality, George is going to be bold this time. It's very good, one shot is a hundred gold galleons.

"Okay, I'll also pay a hundred galleons." Ivan made the decision without much hesitation.

Most of the hundred galleons were the surplus from when Asia bought books for him, and the rest was earned from selling Wolfsbane potion.

With two hundred gold galleons as their principal, George and Fudre threatened to make a big move. Small things like last time could not satisfy their appetite.

"It's a pity that we played against the Slytherin team once during the last practice. This time I think most people will buy us Gryffindor to win!" George said this, somewhat disappointed, which means that they may win this time. Not much money.

And they can't play match-fixing and deliberately let Gryffindor lose the game, otherwise Wood will definitely kill them.
