The Mightiest Aurors of Hogwarts
Chapter 53 The Philosopher’s Stone Revealed
The food in France is indeed much better than that in England, especially the food of the French Muggle community.
Sirius Black, disguised as "Canis Major White", wolfed down the exquisite food in front of him, while Aesop, sitting opposite him, just nibbled on his own burger after a brief attempt.
“You might be the first person to eat a convenience store burger at a fancy restaurant.”
Aesop ignored the people around him: "You must be the first to eat in a high-end restaurant the way a prisoner would."
"You said you found a job for me here?" Sirius finally restrained himself from the urge to lick the plate clean.
Aesop nodded, and at this moment, a man with a big belly walked over.
"Come here, remember, your name is Canis Major White now, and you are a British bookseller manager." Aesop said as he stood up.
The potbellied man stretched out his chubby hand: "You must be Mr. Aesop Green. To be honest, when I saw this name, I felt that it would be unreasonable for you not to engage in publishing."
"Mr. Darren, both Aesop and the Brothers Grimm wrote books, and I just sold them."
The president of the French publishing house, who spoke fluent English, sat down at the dining table: "But those who write books will never earn as much as we sell books."
He nodded to Sirius: "This must be Manager White. Will he be responsible for handing over the work of the Stars Group in France to us?"
Sirius nodded blankly.
In order for him not to reveal his secret, Aesop quickly took over the words: "Yes, but Mr. White's nephew Mr. Black may replace him in the future. After all, Mr. White is not young and may not be able to keep up with the energy of traveling between the two countries."
Isn’t that still yourself?Why did you find me a job with Muggles?
"It is wise for you to choose us as your partner. Not only in France, my publishing house has extraordinary influence throughout Europe." Although Darren looked fat as a pig, his small eyes looked at From time to time, you will get a wolf-like look.
This is a standard businessman.
"Then let's talk about splitting the accounts." Aesop said directly, "I value your channels, and you need my content."
"You are very good at grasping the key points," Darren crossed his chubby fingers in front of him, "Four-six, this is already a very reasonable division. Your Qunxing does hold the copyright of some good books, and we are very interested. Otherwise, according to industry standards, it should be [-]%."
Aesop two, and they want eighty percent.
"Sanqi." Aesop said lightly. Although the other party was a qualified businessman, his methods were ineffective for him because he was a wizard. The wealth of the Muggle world should be his help, not his purpose.
Darren quickly shook his chubby head: "It's impossible. As you know, the cost of paper and labor have increased a lot this year, and there was also the big strike not long ago..."
Aesop knocked on the edge of the table: "You misunderstood, Mr. Darren, you are seven and I am three."
"Ah?" Even an old fox in the shopping mall was a little confused at this time. I have seen people fighting for a profit, but how can I see someone taking the initiative to give away the benefits?
"What are your conditions?" However, Dai Lun immediately adjusted. He knew that the other party was willing to compromise on interests, so he would definitely get it back in other aspects.
"Books in the Stars Best Series must account for 20% of all publications." Aesop said extremely seriously.
In other words, if you print a hundred books yourself, twenty of them must be designated by the other party?
Darren rolled his eyes and seemed to be calculating something. Finally, he stretched out his chubby hand again: "Deal."
He couldn't see the disadvantages of doing this. The few copyrights in the other party's hands were still very tempting. Even if he lost all [-]% of the books, he could still earn back on other books.
This is not the first time he has met such a person. For example, at the beginning of this year, there was an old rich man who gave money to publish his memoirs. How could such boring things be easy to sell, but who asked him to give more? .
Presumably this guy has a similar purpose.
After the two returned to Beauxbatons, Aesop said to Sirius: "As long as you ensure the publication and sales of the [Best] series of books, everything else is not important."
"Do you want to lose money?"
"of course."
So far, there are only two books in this so-called Best Series - "The Old Man and the Sea" and "The Human Comedy".
Aesop established the Star Group not to make money, but to let more people read these two books. He will cast special magic on the Bests series of books to facilitate him to collect readers' emotions and support his use of [ Angry Eyes Curse] and [Low Eyebrow Curse].
If people are touched when reading "The Old Man and the Sea", they can provide Aesop with unyielding emotions, which is the basis of Angry King Kong; when people feel sad while reading "The Human Comedy", they can provide Aesop with melancholy emotions. Emotion, this is the prerequisite for launching the low eyebrow curse.
These two high-level magics created by Aesop are very closely related to emotions. If they want to exert their high power, they must consume a lot of emotions.Of course it's unrealistic to rely on yourself alone, and you can't always take advantage of the little wizard.
Therefore, Muggles with a large number of people are the best collection targets. After all, emotions are not magic, as long as humans have them.
The most important thing is that the emotional power of Muggles is not necessarily weaker than that of wizards.
Sirius frowned. There were more people in Beauxbatons today, and there was obvious fanaticism in these people's eyes.
"What happened?"
Aesop sighed: "Nico announced how to make the magic stone."
Sure enough, everyone was gathering towards Beauxbatons' Quietball pitch, their eyes revealing madness.
A huge black stone monument was erected in the center of the originally empty stadium, and the method of making the magic stone was on it.
Nico Flamel stood in front of the black stone monument. Even though he had used the "loud voice" spell, he still looked weak.
"Everyone...all the...knowledge about the Philosopher's Stone is here..." He took a few breaths and tried to adjust his state, "and the rest of my alchemy knowledge will be donated to Beauxbatons' books for free. Any little wizard can learn them."
He said it once in French and repeated it in English.
"What a selfless person." Sirius sighed.
Aesop shook his head: "They will not be satisfied."
Sure enough, before Aesop finished speaking, an American wizard suddenly shouted: "How do you prove that the information on the stone tablet is true?"
"Yes, and how can we guarantee that you have indeed published all the knowledge about the magic stone?" As long as someone stands up to question, more rats will follow.
They never dare to stand under the strong sunlight, but they will bark in the dark corners at dusk.
"An oath, an unbreakable oath!" a wizard shouted in French.
This was already a naked humiliation. They really didn't believe it, and they were unwilling and unwilling to believe this old man.
The Beauxbatons professors who were maintaining safety at the scene became very unhappy. Being forced to reveal the most precious alchemy results by their own school directors was a slap in their faces. Are they really going to be forced to take an oath?
"Even if they make an unbreakable oath, they will use Nico's short time after giving up the Philosopher's Stone as an excuse to deny the validity of the oath." Aesop really knows these people too well.
"Take an oath! Take an oath!" Countless wizards who were inspired took a step towards the black stone tablet.
Sirius Black, disguised as "Canis Major White", wolfed down the exquisite food in front of him, while Aesop, sitting opposite him, just nibbled on his own burger after a brief attempt.
“You might be the first person to eat a convenience store burger at a fancy restaurant.”
