Hogwarts: I am the White Demon King
#127 - Chapter 127 I regret it. The Philosopher's Stone has become dregs.
“Sebastian......”
Professor McGonagall opened her mouth, but swallowed the words she was about to say.
She really didn't know what to say.
Could she directly say that the school was in financial difficulty and couldn't support a long-term alchemy course?
The money donated by the school board members was only enough to pay the professors' salaries, not enough to support Hogwarts in opening this extremely money-consuming course.
So, should she directly reject the students' request?
But what was their fault? They just wanted to learn knowledge.
The responsibility for not being able to open this course rested entirely with the school's leaders.
Professor McGonagall turned her head, her eyes fixed on Dumbledore, expecting him to provide a perfect solution.
Dumbledore felt a chill run down his spine.
If he could calmly face Sebastian's gaze, then the expectation in Professor McGonagall's eyes made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.
What's the use of looking at me?
I can't conjure up Galleons either......
No, I used to be able to.
But he had already destroyed the Philosopher's Stone, and now there wasn't even a trace left.
Alas......
Dumbledore sighed deeply, regret gnawing at his heart like ants.
He was careless, the Philosopher's Stone was destroyed too early!
If he could have kept the Philosopher's Stone until now, he could have confidently told the two not to worry, the school would not disappoint the students' expectations.
It's just an alchemy course, Hogwarts is definitely opening it!
But now it's all too late......
As an alchemy master, Dumbledore knew very well how many Galleons were needed to open an alchemy course.
After all, opening an alchemy course was a long-term process.
He couldn't just say that this year there was money, the school could open an alchemy course, and two years later, the school had no money, and then cancel the alchemy course.
If that were the case, the students wouldn't learn anything.
However, where could he get Galleons?
Dumbledore tried hard to think, hoping to find a way to solve the Galleon problem.
Find his old friend Nicolas Flamel?
Perhaps Nicolas would be willing to help him, but it was already too late.
Before he came to him to protect the Philosopher's Stone, Nicolas had already inventoried his assets and donated them all.
According to Nicolas, he had no children, leaving the property was useless, it was better to donate it to repay his alma mater and the French wizarding world.
Now Nicolas only had enough for his and his wife's living expenses, and was not wealthy, so he should not bother him.
Then who should he look for?
Find Sebastian?
As soon as this thought popped up, Dumbledore couldn't help but blush.
He suspected that he was just taking advantage of one sheep, and had gotten used to it.
No, no, that's too ugly!
Dumbledore tried his best to dispel the thoughts in his mind.
Although this young man was now the richest man in the wizarding world, he had no reason to donate a large number of Galleons to Hogwarts every year.
What should he do?
In fact, wizards have many ways to get money, but most of them are prohibited by the Ministry of Magic's laws.
Once they have evil intentions, Azkaban is the best destination.
Dumbledore was entangled for a while, and couldn't think of a good way to get money.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he realized that he had gotten into a dead end.
Since this young man Sebastian came to him, he must have had an idea in his mind, he might as well listen to his plan first.
Thinking of this, Dumbledore passed the buck back to Sebastian.
“Sebastian,” Dumbledore's confidence was a little lacking, “You also know the school's financial situation.”
“Once the alchemy course is opened, it cannot be maintained for a long time at all.”
“So, I want to ask you, is there any solution?”
Solution?
Of course there is!
Sebastian grinned.
The reason why he wanted Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall to see his memory was to make them more directly feel the needs of the little wizards.
Hearing is false, seeing is believing.
Even if he said it eloquently, it would not be as direct as letting the two old people see it.
Now it seems that the result is gratifying, at least Professor McGonagall is really concerned.
At Hogwarts, if something can get Professor McGonagall's support, then it is basically 98% sure.
Next, it depends on how he persuades the two old people to fully support him.
Sebastian smiled slightly, stood up and walked to the window, and pointed to the Forbidden Forest.
“Headmaster, Professor McGonagall, look. The way out for Hogwarts is there!”
Professor McGonagall stood up and came to Sebastian's side, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned as she looked in the direction he was pointing.
“Forbidden Forest?”
In an instant, Professor McGonagall figured out many things.
There are indeed many valuable things in the Forbidden Forest, and dark wizards often sneak in to poach.
Therefore, Hogwarts has specially set up a Forbidden Forest keeper to patrol the Forbidden Forest on a daily basis.
But......
How can such a large Forbidden Forest be developed?
Hogwarts does not have enough candidates to develop the Forbidden Forest.
Could it be that Hagrid alone has to complete such a large task?
Thinking of Hagrid's character, Professor McGonagall felt a slight headache.
She felt that Hagrid was a good hand at patrolling the Forbidden Forest and protecting the magical creatures inside, but if he was asked to develop it......
Professor McGonagall shook her head gently, and removed this unreliable idea from her mind.
In a trance, Professor McGonagall sat back in her chair again.
“Sebastian, if you want to develop the Forbidden Forest, do you have any specific measures?”
“Of course!” Sebastian casually took out two thick books, then stood up and handed the books to the two professors.
“This is the Forbidden Forest Development Plan, the two professors can take a good look.”
“My basic idea is that the development of the Forbidden Forest must be based on sustainable development.”
Sustainable development!
This word immediately spoke to Dumbledore's heart.
Although Hogwarts is very short of money, he is not willing to destroy the Forbidden Forest for temporary gain.
He quickly opened the plan and read it carefully.
Not bad!
Sebastian did not have the idea of killing those magical creatures, but adopted different treatment methods for different groups.
For example, targeting the unicorn's love of beauty, regularly arrange female employees to groom their hair, and in this process, naturally collect the fallen unicorn hair.
For another example, for the Thestral family, you can use feeding to exchange for regularly drawing a small can of Thestral blood.
The more Dumbledore looked, the more energetic he became, and he found that Sebastian had indeed considered all aspects.
“Dumbledore, Sebastian's plan is good!”
Professor McGonagall's voice was full of excitement: “I think we can try it for a year first to see the effect.”
“If it is successful, after a year, we will not have to worry about opening an alchemy course.”
Dumbledore nodded and looked up at Sebastian.
“Sebastian, I won’t read the plan for now.”
“Tell me directly, how are the employees arranged?”
“And, how to treat the centaurs in the Forbidden Forest.”
