Hogwarts' new house

The reporters left with satisfaction. Although they did not get the exact information about Voldemort, the wanted order itself was enough to detonate the wizarding world tomorrow.

He personally sent the reporter off on a small turtle and returned to the restaurant in the ancient town.

Now the restaurant is full of wizards who have taken the exam and feel that they have done well in the exam and have a chance to obtain professor qualifications. All are potential professors.

Guzhen's eyes were already shining when he looked at them.

"Everyone," Guzhen returned to the main seat, holding up the glass, with a sly light in his eyes: "Beef is two more silver coins more expensive, life is not easy."

wizard:

It's a bit abrupt to say this all of a sudden, and you think we're blind and can't see that your clothes cost hundreds of galleons.

Uh, Guzhen waved his hand, "Don't worry about the details. I am a nouveau riche, different from you."

"It's not just beef." The ancient town sighed slightly: "The prices of robes, magic books, and herbs are all increasing. A rough calculation shows that a wizard without illness or accidents would need twenty gold galleons a month to survive. "

The salary of wizards is generally around fifty gold galleons. If a family only has one or two children, they can live a good life. Although they cannot be late every time, they will not be miserable. But if you have a string of dolls like the Weasley family, it will be difficult to survive no matter how careful you are.

This requires both the husband and wife to have relatively decent jobs. In fact, this is basically impossible. The wizarding world cannot provide so many positions.

The life of ordinary wizards is too precarious, but among Muggles, they are basically poor and lower-middle peasants. We are almost in the st century, and there is no social welfare at all. Many people cannot even guarantee their basic livelihood.

The rich are extremely extravagant, while the poor are destitute.

Moreover, the separation between the wizarding world and the Muggle world is not as complete as they imagined, especially in terms of economy. Every economic crisis in the Muggle world will have a certain impact on the wizarding world.

Weren't Grindelwald's activities during World War II also affected by the economy and war in the Muggle world?

The most intuitive thing is that beef has increased by two silver coins in a row this week. May be affected by the economic fluctuations in British Muggle society in 89

Everyone didn't know what Guzhen wanted to say. Life was hard, and except for the upstart Guzhen, everyone understood it. Otherwise, they wouldn't care so much about the twenty gold galleons provided by Winter Valley.

"Life is getting harder and harder" Guzhen smiled treacherously: "Come to Winter Valley"

"A formal professor in Winter Valley has a basic salary of seventy Galleons, and various benefits of about thirty Galleons per month. After teaching three terms of students in Winter Valley, he will receive a monthly pension of forty Galleons after retirement. Donggu plans to launch professor level assessment. The higher the level, the higher the on-the-job benefits and post-retirement pension will be."

The ancient town always remembers a famous saying, a good boss does not talk about ideals but only about salary. If the salary is enough, any ideal can be realized.

A decent job with a salary far above the average job.

The wizards were whispering, already very emotional.

A wizard raised his hand: "Mr. Guzhen, after joining Winter Valley College, do you still have the twenty gold Galleons subsidy for your original professorship?"

Ancient town:

How can you fall into the eyes of money when you go out to teach? Professors have ideals. Why do you look at me like this?

Molly, Lupine, Tonks and even old Dumbledore, you have broken my impression of you being knowledgeable and knowledgeable. And Snape, are you the one who is short of twenty gold galleons a month?

In terms of earning power in the entire wizarding world, apart from Nick Mellor, who has the Philosopher's Stone, no one can compare to Snape. He is the richest person in Hogwarts, and you are only part-time and have not joined Wintervale.

After Guzhen gritted his teeth and gave a satisfactory answer, the wizards immediately went crazy, clapping their hands and shouting, as if they had received a monthly salary of ninety gold galleons.

What made Guzhen grit his teeth was that the guy who asked the question was just asking casually. He had never thought about joining Donggu as a professor.

I hate this kind of guy who harms others and does not benefit himself the most. When you sent the wizards away without your twenty gold galleons, everyone in the ancient town stared at his back with itching teeth.

The results of the professor qualification assessment are basically released after the assessment. There is no need for a grading period as Guzhen thought. The only thing that is slow is Potions. What kind of potion to make is not the focus. How to handle the medicinal materials, how to control the heat, how to mix the proportions, and how to improve the formula are the inspection points.

Of course, Guzhen couldn't understand it at all. Snape charged one hundred and was responsible for the whole process from setting the questions to judging. The only thing that made him unhappy was that he actually saw Lupin in Winter Vale.

Therefore, the wizards who participated in the examination were criticized by him as being worthless. In the end, only four of the thirty pharmacy wizards passed his professor qualification examination.

One of them was Mandy Royo, the witch who kidnapped the ancient town. Royo did not participate in the assessment, but the video of treating other people in the forest was seen by Snape. I don't know what Snape's mentality was, but he actually added her name to the qualification list and gave her the highest rating of "O".

She doesn't look like Lily either, Gu Zhen can't understand.

"Don't look at me suspiciously with your ignorant eyes." Snape leaned against the stone pillar, raising his head slightly but glancing down at the ancient town with contempt: "A pharmacist will never praise another potion. Teacher, unless she really has the ability to impress me."

Guzhen rolled his eyes in response. No student has put a sack on you for so many years. Is it because you Snape is too talented or the students at Hogwarts are too kind?

This guy never had any bad words, he just made sarcastic comments to Dumbledore. I am your employer, and the person who pays your salary has only known me for a few days, okay?

Even though I knew Snape was not a bad person, I still wanted to slap him after hearing the way he spoke.

Guzhen turned back to Mandiroyu and said, "Come on, make a bottle of truth serum."

Luo You, who was shrinking aside, looked at Guzhen incomprehensively, but did not dare to say anything. He lowered his head and walked to the remaining materials for the assessment, selecting materials one by one.

Snape glanced sideways at the ancient town and said with disdain: "Veritaserum is only effective. It cannot be seen that the skill of a master pharmacist can be judged. Veritaserum needs at least one moon cycle to prepare." I don’t have time to stay here with you to invigilate the exam for a month.”

Snape flicked his wand and removed most of the medicinal materials from the medicine shelves. He showed Luo Yu a cruel smile: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid you don't have time to prepare the orthodox truth serum. If you can make it faster, ask Guzhen Sir, could you please show me your abilities? Although I don’t think he understands it, he is the principal after all.”

Snape took away the common ingredients of Veritaserum, asking Royo to improve a new formula on the spot. Royo bit his lip and thought for a while, then selected a few items from the medicinal material library.

Sri Lankan Vulture Bile, Burlocka Grass, Half-Ear Grass Buds

Grinding, pressing, cutting and drying, Snape's eyes became brighter and brighter, as if he had seen a peerless beauty. He watched Luo Yu process a bunch of green and red medicinal materials and finally condensed them into a small bottle. Clear elixir.

"Nice improvement. This bottle of Veritaserum is better than the Veritaserum commonly used for interrogation by the Ministry of Magic. Although the side effects are much greater, the effect is at least twice as good." Snape raised his eyes and looked at the ancient town: "How did Mr. Principal inspect it? Can Ms. Luoyou’s ability be exaggerated?”

Gu Zhen blinked. I didn't want to test her ability. She was so good at pharmacy that I couldn't understand it. I just needed a bottle of truth serum.

Gu Zhen made a gesture of invitation to Luo Yu: "Drink it."

"I" I wanted to resist, but I didn't dare. Luo You bit his lip, opened his mouth and gave himself three drops, his eyes gradually becoming ethereal.

"There have been several robberies," Guzhen said in a calm voice.

"Two or two times." Even though she was affected by Veritaserum, the witch's tone was still a bit timid. She didn't know where she got the courage to rob twice.

Guzhen shook his head, you're done. I can give you twenty gold galleons, but Donggu will not use people with criminal records as professors. This is a matter of principle.

Luo You lowered her head slowly. The Veritaserum only made her speak the truth, not make her lose her mind. She knew what Gu Zhen's look meant, and her last hope was shattered.

She whispered in a low voice: "The last time I robbed you, I only found out five minutes before the robbery that the Black Witches were going to kidnap and rob people. I always thought they were just for smuggling."

The first time I was robbed was when I was eight years old. I was really hungry and robbed a candy from a Muggle youth. When I grabbed it, I found it was a beautifully wrapped and oily balloon. "

The more Luo Yu spoke, the lower his voice became, and his head was buried deep in his chest.

Ancient town:

You must be a balloon. Your robbery was so fresh and refined.

"Have you ever done anything other dark wizards do?"

Luo Yu thought for a moment: "Does a curse count? Ten years ago, a mysterious man hunted a half-blood wizard. I was in seventh grade at that time, and I didn't even dare to go to Hogwarts. I dropped out of school and fled to India where I suffered a lot. My son felt that Dumbledore failed to protect the school, so he cursed him to be single all his life and unable to find a girlfriend."

Ancient town:

Me, what expression should I make now?

"Ah, it turns out that the curse letter was sent by you." Dumbledore's voice suddenly came from the door: "Curse a centenarian man for not being able to find a girlfriend. Okay, although it's a bit regretful, you don't have to be too embarrassed." I mind."

Dumbledore looked at the ancient town with a smile: "Is Wintervale going to reject Ms. Royo? If so, that would be great. I hope Royo can take up the position of Potions Professor at Hogwarts, and then Severus will be transferred. Defense Against the Dark Arts."

A mixed-race girl was orphaned at the age of six or seven. She grew up alone and struggled at the bottom of society for twenty years without becoming a dark wizard. Dumbledore felt that such a girl was worth saving.

Snape suddenly raised his head and looked at Royo with a different look. For the first time in so many years, the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts waved to him.

The ancient town didn't want to see Dumbledore. The old man had just invited several wizards to be professors in front of him, and he still wasn't satisfied.

"You go to Mrs. Weasley first. She will arrange a place for you to rest. When Parchment wakes up tomorrow morning, you can sign the employment contract and familiarize yourself with the environment of Winterfort as quickly as possible."

Royo suddenly raised his head and looked at the ancient town with shining eyes, while Dumbledore looked regretful.

It is difficult to find professors. According to Guzhen’s idea, there is one professor for each grade of the compulsory courses, and a separate professor for the ninth grade. In this way, each major subject requires 5 professors.

However, we can barely get enough professors for one grade now, which is enough for the time being. The wizarding world's professor reserves are still too scarce.

After taking care of the professor, the entire Winter Valley became busy in an instant.

Three days in the outside world and five days in the winter valley. Time flies, especially when you get busy. Five days is simply not enough time, including classroom placement, professor office layout, student dormitories, professor dormitories, activity rooms, and libraries.

Guzhen suddenly found that he was a little confused, the enrollment time was a little urgent, and he seemed not ready yet. I was still thinking about whether to post it in the newspaper or not. Outside Winterfort, the Orkney Islands are once again filled with wizards.

This time the wizard brought the little wizard with him.

But Merlin’s big pants

It was a little after nine o'clock in the morning on August 8th outside, but it was after eight o'clock in the evening in Donggu, and the full moon hung high and cast a silver glow on the ground.

Gu Zhen looked at Lu Ping and the six-man ranger team he brought, and fell into deep thought.

As soon as the wizards entered Wintervale, they saw six werewolves. Could it be that Avada washed the land and destroyed Winterhold?
