Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 170 The branch opened on Christmas
When Connor woke up in a daze the next day, he touched his body first, but luckily he was still in his pajamas
Christmas Eve passed peacefully...

Connor always felt that since he went to school, his birthday has always been very difficult. Sure enough, parties are not suitable for me. Labor and management hate parties the most.

Connor got out of bed and approached the mountain of presents, an early Christmas ritual, to unwrap presents.

The gifts that Connor gives others are basically products produced by his own family, such as cards, Facebook, brooms and so on.

Of course, there are exceptions. For example, Connor gave the twins a set of potion books. Although Connor knew that they wanted to give them new cards, as their good brothers, Connor still hoped that they would study hard.
Connor also gave Dumbledore a bunch of purple socks. The old man didn't lack anything. Connor couldn't think of what to give him. Seeing that he looked like Santa Claus, he gave him a bunch of socks. I believe he would be very happy of.

Connor also flirtatiously gave Snape a painting with a lily flower painted on it with the "eye brush". Anyway, Snape probably didn't dare to ask himself why he gave him this, really If you want to ask, just say that this is the student's blessing to him, haha, who made this cheapskate refuse to give himself more points in class to piss him off.

Connor began to unwrap the presents, because the students all knew that Connor was rich, so they didn't give anything expensive. The male students gave him a bunch of snacks, and the girls gave him a lot of silk scarves, emmm, etc. Throw it all to Evan and forget it.
"Cross??? Professor Sable will give me a gift."

"It's still the professors who are kind to me and have sent so many useful books."

"Tsk, Fred and George, these two bastards, what the hell did you give me? "Write down the love words you want to tell Connor the most"? Hiss~ so many girls' autographs. Bah, what do I want from this thing? use?"

"Is this a dragon egg shell? Did that guy Duckles really raise a dragon at home?"

While tearing it apart, Connor talked to himself, thanks to the local tyrants in the fraternity, Connor has collected a lot of materials for making "magic paper", and it is really comfortable to make friends with local tyrants
"Huh? Dumbledore's gift? The Elements? This book looks good."

"This... What is this? A collar?" When Connor opened Alice's gift, he was stunned by the black sexy collar that appeared in front of him, and he looked at the small note in front of him with a painful expression on his face:

"Darling, this is a love collar. It is said that as long as people who love each other wear it, no matter how far apart they are, they can feel where the other party is! I searched all night for a long time before I found this gift from my mother's treasury. What! From now on, we will wear this collar until we are old, shall we?—I like you the most, Alice"

"." Mrs. Windsor also knew how to play when she was young.
Connor casually threw the horrible gift aside and continued to open the box
Penello sent a few more sets of clothes that are very trendy now, but Connor thinks they are very old-fashioned. Emily sent an eagle-shaped brooch, which is pretty but can be worn. Blanche sent a can maltose?Ha, this is a snack that is not available in the wizarding world, this one seems to be good...

Fortunately, not all girls are as unreliable as Alice
"Connor! Good morning...er(Д)! Excuse me, goodbye."

Ivan probably wanted to say hello to Connor, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw Connor unwrapping a mountain of presents. When he thought of his few presents, he suddenly became unhappy
Connor shrugged, this Christmas morning...not bad?
-
Lake chess experience store, Hogsmeade branch, officially opened on Christmas Day.

Connor walked with his grandfather from Lake Manor to see the new store opening.

The new experience store opened opposite the Fengya wizard clothing store, which is considered to be the center of the village. This house was bought by the Lake family three months ago. It has been renovated and has finally opened.

Even though it was during the Christmas season, the opening of the new store was quite lively (looks like there were a dozen customers).

Of course, Hogsmeade Village is not as lively as Diagon Alley in London. In fact, Connor opened a shop here mainly to earn money from students.
Because Hogwarts students after the third grade can go to Hogsmeade Village to play on weekends if their parents agree, so it is still very profitable to open a store here.

The branch here has only three floors, and only two floors are open to the public. The second floor is the monster hall, and the first floor is the event hall.

The first floor is large enough to accommodate many people. There is a bar, a board game experience table, and many separate compartments for card battles or class reunions.

Connor's design idea for this experience store is to make it into an Internet cafe model, provide entertainment seats, and provide catering services, making it a good place for entertainment and leisure.

"It seems that the business here is okay?" Old Diwen and Connor walked into the new store. He looked around, and there were already many people playing cards.

"Our event hasn't started yet. When the New Year's event comes out in a few days, there will be more people here. Of course, there should be more people going to Diagon Alley." Connor shrugged and said.

"I think you can win this game, yes, keep this momentum." A rough voice came, attracting the attention of the two.

Near the door, there was a table of people playing monster cards, and a tall, strong bald man stood beside him. At this time, he was muttering beside him, secretly supporting a certain player.

"Oh, that's the store manager, Bob!" Connor pointed at the big man and shouted.

The bald man turned his head and saw his boss. He hurriedly rubbed his hands and walked over: "Master Connor, and Mr. Lake, you are here too, welcome."

Bob is a Muggle-born wizard. His full name is Bob Luthor. He was born in Hufflepuff. Although he looks big and thick, he is actually a very delicate person. When Connor wanted to recruit a branch store manager, the applicant Among the many, Bob can stand out, which is enough to show that he is not simple.

Bob used to be an Auror, but because he was tired of living in the dark, he came to apply for the manager of the Yo-Kai brand with his love for Yo-Kai cards. He has outstanding abilities and eliminated many competitors. , became the store manager.

Of course, the store manager in Hogsmeade Village can't use Squibs. This is a wizarding village, and it's not easy for Squibs to gain a foothold here, so Connor is very satisfied to be able to invite a wizard who has been an Auror to be the store manager. of.

"The new store opened, how do you feel?" Connor asked with a smile. There are not many people now, and it doesn't matter if he, the store manager, comes out to watch others play cards. After all, there are still several waiters here.

"Very good! I feel great! I like this life! I have to thank you for giving me this job, my little boss." Bob smiled honestly, and he seemed to be in a really good mood.

"That's good, you go get busy, my grandfather and I have a look around... By the way." Connor looked at the new store with a bit monotonously decorated walls, and said, "I think I should bring some paintings here to hang up. "

"This is indeed a good idea." Old Diwen also nodded: "I like this place, Connor, it seems that I can come here often to play in the future."

"As long as you like it, grandfather."
