The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 439 Beating the Worker Ron

This is an outrageous thing.

Ron obviously hated Link so much, but he still wanted to work in the factory run by Link.

But in fact this is understandable and even quite reasonable.

After all, Ron is a pauper.

He was so poor that even the Daily Prophet could only be read by Harry and Hermione, let alone other snacks and toys.

As for going to work at George and Fred's factory.

That's what's really impossible to do.

No one knows better than Ron how screwed his two brothers are.

George and Fred even took back the gold Galleons they had given him as the new prefect to help deliver the message, saying 'you didn't use it at all'.

The workshop they ran was more like a sweatshop, with pitiful wages and personal dangers.

Only the devil goes to work there!

So for the sake of Gallon, Ron came to the factory.

Of course, whether you really want to work here depends on whether the benefits previously announced by Link and John are true.

With deep suspicion, Ron looked at the notice board in front of him.

Dozens of jobs were densely posted on the notice board. The first thing that caught Ron's eyes was the specially enlarged "10 Sickle Hours" behind the first few jobs.

‘1加隆,等于17西可,等于493纳特。这也就是说只要每天能在这干上两个小时就能有足足1加隆3西可?梅林呐!对角巷冰淇淋店的服务员周薪也就只有10加隆啊!只要在这赶上17个小时就能顶人家干一个礼拜的?’

Ron felt his heart beating rapidly, and a large amount of blood rushed to his forehead, making him feel dizzy.

But this excitement was soon replaced by deep disappointment.

Because these 'highest-paying positions' that were specially placed at the front of the notice board have all been crossed out.

This means that these positions have been filled and no manpower is needed.

"Let me tell you! This must be false propaganda. How can there be any reason that part-time students' salary is higher than that of full-time students? Link is no different from George and Fred. He is as black as a crow in the world!"

Ron muttered under his breath.

But at this moment, a big hand patted his shoulder.

"what--"

Ron jumped up in fright at this sudden turn of events, but when he turned around, he saw a senior Hufflepuff girl looking at him with the same horrified expression.

The other person is not very beautiful, but he has a hot figure, bulging front and back, and is a head taller than Ron. He is the type that most men can't look away from after just one look. .

It's a pity that Ron was so frightened at the moment that he had no intention of paying attention to the beauty of the other party.

"Uh! Sorry, I scared you." The girl reacted first, apologized and introduced herself, "I am Gregory Lin from the factory's human resources department. I saw you were looking at The signboard just came to say hello, may I ask, do you want to find a job?"

"No, no, no! I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"

Ron blushed and pulled up his scarf to cover his face while denying it.

Poor god.

He got up early and came here just to avoid being discovered by acquaintances. He originally wanted to find out the news today, and if it was good, he would find a way to disguise himself and come to work.

As a result, I met an employee of the factory before I even finished exploring the information.

'How to do how to do?He is Link's employee. If he tells Link about my visit, I will be completely ruined!No, I'll leave immediately! '

Ron panicked and turned around to leave.

As a result, the female HR named Gregory Lin directly reached out and pulled him back.

"Don't leave in a hurry, junior," Gregory Lin's eyes sparkled as if he had seen a golden galleon, and he said in an eager tone, "I'm already here anyway, why don't I introduce it to you first? Just take your post. If you really think it’s not possible after you hear what I have to say, it won’t be too late to leave then.”

Ron tilted his head and waved his hands repeatedly:

"No, no, no, all the positions you have here are no longer recruiting. I've just seen them."

"Who said we won't be hiring anymore?" Gregory Lin frowned in confusion, but soon realized something. He turned around and glanced at the 'highest-paying positions' at the top of the notice board, and suddenly realized, " Oh! Are you talking about those positions? Come on, the factory has been open for more than a week now, so those positions have naturally been taken away. But don’t worry, there are still slightly worse positions, come with me Let's see."

Ron naturally refused and struggled to escape.

But Gregory Lin didn't know where the huge force came from, and he actually pulled Ron directly to another notice board.

"Here! How about this? Wizard chess enchanter, salary is 7 Sicos per hour."

Gregory Lin pointed to a post above the notice board and said.

As soon as these words came out, Ron, who was still struggling fiercely, suddenly froze on the spot. He turned his head with difficulty and said:

"Seven silvers per hour? Is this true?"

This was a rather idiotic question, because while speaking, Ron himself had already seen the black and white words on the notice board.

However, Gregory Lin still smiled and explained:

"Of course, but this position requires that your OWL scores in the Charms class must be excellent, and you must have a certain level of alchemy skills. It is best to study NWET's alchemy courses."

"I'm only in fifth grade this year and haven't passed the OWL exam yet."

"Really?" Gregory Lin said with some surprise, "You don't look that young."

Ron lowered his head shyly. He felt that Gregory Lin was praising his maturity.

"I'm really sorry, this was my mistake." Gregory Lin apologized and pointed to a new position, "So what about this position? Humeizi pesticide dispatcher, the hourly salary is 6 cents, but it needs to pass For a practical exam, only students who successfully produce three copies in a row can officially take up the job."

"Well, this... I don't like this very much."

Ron said weakly and lowered his head at the same time, because although Humeizi Killer is a relatively common and simple potion, as an inferior student in potions, his success rate in making medicine is still very low.

Ron had never regretted not studying hard as he did today.

If he listens to Hermione and takes Potions lessons seriously, this job that pays 6 Sickles an hour might be his!

Of course, Gregory Lynn couldn't read Ron's true thoughts. Seeing Ron's pitiful look, she comforted him:

"It doesn't matter. There are other jobs, but the money is a bit low and the people are hard."

Gregory Lin searched for a while on the notice board, and then pondered:

"Well, as a potion materials processor, the hourly salary is 5 sikoro, and you are required to have basic knowledge of potions. You should be able to do this, right?"

Having said this, Gregory Lin seemed to have thought of something again, and whispered close to Ron's ear, "In addition, each work station in this job is separated for safety reasons, so you don't have to be afraid. Were you discovered by others that you came to work?"

Ron was originally very excited when he heard what Gregory Lynn said, but when he heard the other person's last words, he felt the hairs all over his body stand on end, and said with a look of horror:

"You... how did you know?"

"Hehehehe -" Gregory Lin covered his mouth and smiled, "I have seen too many students like you who are thin-skinned and are afraid of being laughed at by their classmates because they come here to work. But in fact, it is not easy to be laughed at. What's the big deal? Will you suffer any loss? As long as we don't break the law and don't hinder other people, is it still wrong to make money by our own labor? Having no money is the really uncomfortable thing. Please mark it here Wouldn’t it be nice to work for a few days and then go to Hogsmeade to have a big meal or buy a gift for your parents?”

Ron looked at Gregory Lynn with dull eyes. He had never heard similar words elsewhere.

But it is undeniable that he was somewhat moved by Gregory Lynn.

In particular, he was deeply touched by the phrase 'having no money is the most uncomfortable thing'.

Thinking of the grievances he had encountered in the past because he had no pocket money, Ron felt his nose was sore and nodded:

"You are right, there is no shame in making money through your own labor!"

Upon hearing this, Gregory Lin's eyes lit up and he said:

"Does this mean you are willing to do this job?"

Having said that, Ron had nothing to hesitate and nodded again.

"Oye! That's great!"

Gregory Lin cheered, took Ron's hand and ran into the human resources office not far away. He quickly took out a contract from the drawer and placed it in front of Ron and said:

"Sign here, and you need to press a fingerprint here and give you ink pad..."

Ron was guided by Gregory Lynn to continue signing and stamping on the parchment, so fast that he could not even carefully read the contents of the contract written on the parchment.

This shouldn't have happened, but Ron really didn't have the heart to care about these things at the moment.

Because it was only now that he suddenly realized that his hand had been held by the beautiful senior sister Gregory Lin, and the other person seemed to be... speaking close to his ear.

Recalling the feeling of hot breath on his ears at that time, goose bumps appeared on Ron's arms.

While Ron was thinking wildly, Gregory Lin had already helped Ron complete the signing of the contract.

Gregory Lin pointed in the direction of the door and smiled sweetly:

"Okay, Mr. Weasley, go out and turn right. The third classroom is the workshop you want to go to. You can just go in and pick a station and start working. Haha, don't worry, each station is equipped with a timer. The counting device will never steal any of your copper nuts."

As he spoke, Gregory Lynn pushed Ron out of the office, and then closed the door directly, ignoring Ron's stuttering and obviously having something to say.

bang——

As the door was slammed shut, Gregory Lin breathed a long sigh of relief, flicked the parchment contract in his hand and said happily:

"I successfully deceived a silly boy again. Today's commission is 2 more silver coins. Hehe, that's great!"

After saying that, Gregory Lin put the parchment away, made himself a cup of coffee, sat down, crossed his two long legs on the table, and started fishing without any manners at all.

Ron in the corridor naturally knew nothing about what happened behind the door.

He stared blankly at the closed door in front of him, his originally fiery brain quickly cooled down, and after a while he walked to the right in despair.

It wasn't until he actually walked into the classroom pointed out for him by Gregory Lynn that Ron gradually woke up from his fantasy.

What appeared in front of him at this moment were four rows of neatly arranged workstations.

Gregory Lin did not lie to him. These workstations were all separated by dark brown wooden boards, and there was only an opening on the side facing the aisle.

Because it was still early, there was no one else in the workshop except him.

At this point, Ron had no way to look back. He could only sigh and walked into a hidden workstation at the end of the workshop.

The compartment door closed automatically, making Ron finally feel a little safer.

He turned around and began to look at the environment of the work station, and then he discovered that there was a full set of potion processing tools hanging on the partition wall. There were also extra spares for necessities that were prone to breakage, such as dragon leather gloves. This is completely different from the George Fred workshop where you need to bring your own tools.

Not only that, there are two buttons, one red and one gold, on both sides of the empty metal workbench. Under the red button is the note "Supplement Raw Materials", and under the gold button is the note "Submit Finished Product".

Ron sat in front of the workbench and tentatively pressed the red button.

click-

The trap door near the red button opened instantly, and a small pot of wormwood popped out. At the same time, two digital clocks showing time appeared on the wall in front of Ron.

Looking at the bright red numbers on the clock that were beating rapidly, Ron felt a little at a loss.

He danced around at his workstation for a long time before finally remembering his work. He picked up the tool bag on the wall and started processing the wormwood in front of him.

Wormwood is one of the main ingredients in the Dreamless Sleep potion and the blood-tonifying potion, and its processing process is not complicated.

Simply chop, juice, boil, and strain to get a serving of wormwood juice.

Even a first-year student who has just taken a few Potions lessons can easily handle it.

So even though Ron was acting a little embarrassed at the moment, his progress was still very smooth.

After hurriedly filtering and bottling the absinthe juice, Ron pressed the golden button on his right hand side.

click-

There was another crisp sound of the mechanism, and an alchemy mechanical arm stretched out from the small door on the level of the golden button, and quickly grabbed the wooden basin back.

One of the two digital clocks in front of Ron stopped counting.

The time above is fixed at '11 minutes and 43 seconds'.

Not only that, that time was also recorded separately on a numerical ranking list on the right side of the clock:

1st place - Station No. 17, '11 minutes and 43 seconds';
