Hogwarts: The Founder Reborn

Although he couldn't go to Hogsmeade, for Salazar, his biggest hobby in Hogsmeade was just buying goods.

In the principal's office, he and Rowena were holding the Honeydukes menu and were thinking about what to buy, especially since there were many new products, and Salazar was also very interested in these new products.

Dumbledore reminded Salazar with a blank face that he would only give him a certain amount of pocket money, and when Salazar tried to refute, he warned him: "Eating so many sweets will not do you any good, you The reason for not growing tall is because I am full of sweets and refuse to eat well!"

Rowena made no secret of her sarcasm, and mocked Salazar's height.

Salazar was not convinced: "I have grown very tall!"

"That's right, it's half a head short of Finny."

Sarah looked at Godric. He was standing beside Helga, watching Helga treat Dumbledore's hand. Hearing Rowena's ridicule, he looked up in the direction of the two of them, just in time with Salazar line of sight.

"Hmm..." Godric touched his nose and said. "If you need me to give you the potion to grow taller, you can tell me anytime, no problem."

Sarah looked at Rowena and said, "I'm one year younger than Finny! I'm one year younger than him! It's normal to be half a head shorter than him!"

Rowena just smiled and continued to consult the menu of the Honeydukes' house that Dumbledore gave them.

"I didn't expect Mr. Principal to have a hidden menu here. It's so interesting. I want these and these." She looked at Salazar with a smile. "I have enough pocket money for myself, and I can buy some more for Ron and Ginny to try."

Salazar, whose pocket money was always restricted, was naturally not as rich as Rowena, and he looked at Godric.

Dumbledore noticed his gaze and asked Godric: "I heard that Sirius has now taken over the Black family's business? Now?"

Godric shook his head: "No, he couldn't wait to transfer everything to me."

"Yeah, even after I knew those things, I was very surprised. I didn't expect you to make such a big business at such a young age, and you are doing very well." Dumbledore continued. "Why did you think of going to the Muggles to develop?"

Godric replied with a smile: "Some things, I mean, Muggles made them themselves, and they still look very interesting. I didn't expect that I would earn so much after investing."

"It's pretty good. After graduation, I have to devote myself to these things, right? That's a pity. After all, your potions are very good, and Snape admires you very much, but after knowing that you have a lot of things in your house, you don't He didn't tell me about accepting you as a student." Dumbledore looked very regretful. "It's a pity."

Godric stared into Dumbledore's eyes, and then said cautiously: "I don't really care about whether to do business or not. I have actually entrusted professional agents to handle most of my assets, and I don't need to do anything. .As for potions, I still like them very much, and I hope to have in-depth research in this area. Especially if I have sufficient capital, I will probably consider setting up a research laboratory after graduation to study potions. Various innovations and optimizations."

Dumbledore just listened carefully, as if an ordinary professor cared about his students.

Helga glanced up at Godric, but could see a trace of tension from him.

Rowena poked Salazar with her finger and whispered, "Headmaster Dumbledore is interrogating him for you?"

Salazar didn't realize that Godric and Dumbledore were suddenly talking about what industry, business, and potions they were going to do. After Rowena reminded them, they suddenly understood what was going on.

Sarah looked from Dumbledore to Godric, her eyes widening.

"I heard Sirius complain, have you suddenly cared about his appearance recently?"

"I just feel that it's not good for him to be alone there. If he has a partner or something, I will feel much more at ease."

"Why do you suddenly think so?"

"Uh..." Godric said with an embarrassed expression. "Harry and I are both grown up, and we are going to set up our own family in the future, but I don't worry about leaving him alone. He always likes to be lively, so I wonder if he can have other adventures. on."

"It turns out that's the case, so you will move out from the old house in the future?"

"That's the plan. Considering the establishment of the laboratory and potion research after I graduate, I thought it would be better to have a suitable location near the Ministry of Magic or near Hogsmeade."

"Hogsmeade?"

Godric showed a bit of embarrassment: "It is closer to Hogwarts, it is indeed more convenient."

"Yes, after all, Thrall once said that he wanted to stay and teach at Hogwarts." Dumbledore smiled slightly.

Rowena poked Salazar on the back of his hand again.

Salazar gave her a white look, and said in a low voice: "I see, after getting married, under the circumstances of different jobs, he wants to prevent us from getting together less often and more apart."

Saying this, Salazar also lowered his eyes. He and Godric had never discussed this, so it was Godric's own thought.

Rowena couldn't help looking at Helga when she heard this.

I really can't make a comparison. Helga is definitely going to St. Mungo's. If she stays at Hogwarts like Salazar, she will definitely not be as good as Godric when they are together. After all, Godric If he chose the location of Hogsmeade Village, Salazar could come to Hogsmeade to meet people if he had nothing to do, not to mention that it was close, so Godric could come to Hogwarts to meet people.

Dumbledore heard what he was satisfied with from Godric, and he looked at people more amiably, and even asked him what new research directions he had recently in potions.

The two chatted as if no one else was there, and they hit it off.

And Salazar was obviously absent-mindedly drawing on the menu of Honeydukes, and his attention was always on the conversation between the two people over there.

Until today, the treatment has been temporarily high.

Walking out of the principal's office, Salazar patted Godric on the shoulder.

"what happened?"

"I'm very proficient in apparition. You don't have to think about Hogsmeade. I know that there is no room here for you to build a laboratory."

Godric snorted, and then said: "That's right, but the Black family already has an estate in Hogsmeade, I just need to renovate it."

Salazar: "..."

Godric blinked: "Oh, I forgot to tell you, didn't I? It's Honeydukes." He smiled brightly. "The Black family also has investments. In order to share the risk, didn't I sell a lot of the Black family's properties? I just exchanged the real estate for the shares of other people's shops. Hmm... Later, when I had money, I calculated If anyone needs to expand their assets, they can just use the money to invest. After all, borrowing money is not easy to repay, so it is relatively easy for me to exchange money for shares."

Salazar said without hesitation, "You're really smart!"

Godric smiled: "I can't guarantee anything else, but I signed the contract with them so I'm not afraid of their regret."

Contracts in the magical world are all signed with magic power, and not everyone can bear the backlash of breaking the contract.

It's okay to add an additional confidentiality condition on top of the contract.
