Connor's Hogwarts
Page 115
Elena took over the work of preparing the Xiaohongshu production factory, while the second uncle Charles was busy with the establishment of "Lake Animation Company" that Connor had given him.
"Yes, grandfather, the Ministry of Magic has not stipulated that wizards cannot set up companies in the Muggle world, since there is no such thing, why can't we make money from Muggles?"
"Although I won't stop you from doing this kind of thing, what's the use of earning Muggle money? Their currency is worthless to us wizards. As long as a wizard is willing, he can easily empty out Muggle money." The bank's warehouse, if he's not afraid of being wanted by the Ministry of Magic."
Grandpa shook his head and said he thought it was just another whim Connor was trying to do.
The financial systems of the wizarding world and the Muggle world are not in line. On the black market, the exchange rate of Galleon to Muggle currency is also erratic.
For wizards, exchanging gold Galleons for British pounds is like recharging game currency, and there are still many game currency linked to recharge - people who don't play games think that people who recharge games are evil.
Muggle currency is useful to wizards, but it is actually a dispensable thing.They don't go out of their way to make Muggle money.
For the children of Muggle families, the money they use to go to Hogwarts is paid by the school, which is regarded as seven years of compulsory education.
Children from Muggle families can go to Gringotts when they start school, and exchange five pounds for a Gold Galleon, but there is an upper limit to this kind of exchange, and each person can only exchange about one hundred Gold Galleons. It is sponsored by the school.
When exchanging, the miserly goblins of Gringotts will carefully check with a list to see if you are a "poor" little wizard on the list.
In short, no wizard would be so foolish as to exchange a Galleon for five pounds. They would just take a Nixie and throw it on the Muggle streets, and they might be able to “get” hundreds of pounds of Muggle currency for nothing. For wizards, Not really worth much.
"Grandfather, I didn't set up this company to make money, and I don't need the money. I did it to make the name of our Lake family resound in the world!" Connor tried to fool his grandfather.
""Think about it, when the time comes, everyone, whether wizards or Muggles, will know Pikachu, our cards, and the Lake family!This is so good Wang an this is such a good thing! "
Seeing the movement in his grandfather's eyes, Connor quickly added the strongest blow, "And you know, Blanche doesn't know magic."
The grandfather was silent, yes, Connor's cousin Blanche Delacour, no, now Blanche Lake, she is a Squib like her father.
Blanche has magic in her body, but she can't use any magic. She is the kind of squib who can't use magic even after chanting the spell. It is the "magic worker" in the old Divin's mouth.
Old Diwen was also very helpless when he learned the truth. He never thought that his granddaughter was also a squib. When he thought of this, he wanted to throw that Charles into the mouth of the fire dragon.
If there is no accident, Blanche will grow up like an ordinary Muggle child, go to Muggle middle school and university, and make a living in the Muggle world... just like her father.
If it was in the past, my grandfather would not have any other ideas, everything will go with the flow, and with the Lake family as the backing, his children will never starve to death.
But the plan proposed by Connor made his grandfather have more ambitions. Not only can his Lake family protect their descendants in the wizarding world, but they are still a giant in the Muggle world!
In that way, regardless of whether the descendants of the family have the talent for magic or not, they can live a life without worry.
This is what my grandfather thinks at this time, the prosperity of the family is always the thing that my grandfather cares about the most...
So he said to Connor:
"Then... I agree, you can go ahead and do it. As long as it doesn't violate the Wizarding Law, you can do whatever you want. I will solve the Ministry of Magic's problems for you."
Connor narrowed his eyes and showed a happy smile, "Of course! Grandfather, you will definitely be proud of today's decision in the future."
"So you have a heavy burden, Uncle Charles."
A few days later, in downtown London, in an empty office building, Connor and Shire stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows looking at the bustling London street scene.
My grandfather bought this building in Connor's name, and used a lot of Galleons. Recently, my grandfather bought almost all the British pounds, francs and various Muggle currencies on the black market.
In the future, this place will be the "Lake Building" belonging to Lake Animation Company.
"Connor, it's difficult for you to be strong." Charles scratched his head with a wry smile and said, "You asked me to write an article to start a company for you, and my eyes are black."
"Uncle Charles, you're a top student at the University of Paris IV, aren't you doing pretty well here?
, Get used to it slowly, don't be afraid of wasting money, just let it go and do it. "Connor waved his hand nonchalantly. Anyway, he is the hands-off shopkeeper, so he just needs to see the result.
"I've broken my legs these days, so I can finish what you told me. Others drive a luxury car with their secretary to discuss business, and I'm the only one who walks to talk." Mr. Shire said helplessly Cover your forehead.
Connor shrugged, "There will be a car, and there will be a secretary, take your time..."
"After finishing the work of the office, the next thing is the people, Uncle Shire, next you need to find some writers like you, don't worry about the animation company for now, you have to put your game copywriting first The planning team was established”
"Oh, I can do something about this, many of my college classmates are also working in London"
Connor waved his hand, took out a large box from his pocket, and handed it to Charles, "Uncle Charles, you don't need to tell me these things, I don't understand if you tell me, I believe you can handle it well."
""
"This is the data of all the monster cards we have made so far. I will leave them to you."
"You have more than a month. Before August [-]st, you have to sort out a complete story line and think of a new story..."
"This... time will be a little... tight..."
"Uncle Shire, believe in yourself, you will definitely be able to do it, and I've actually already laid out the framework for this new story." Connor said here, and handed Shire a few more books, and Shire took it.
"Andersen's fairy tales and Grimm's fairy tales?" Charles asked suspiciously.
"Well, that's right, the Alice event last time was very popular among wizards. From the results of years of secret investigations, we found that wizards have a very high opinion of the stories about the magical world that Muggles imagined. interest."
"So I think that using stories with magical elements as the background for secondary creation can greatly stimulate wizards' desire to buy. This time I plan to adapt some characters from fairy tales into cards."
Connor smiled and said, "Before school starts on September [-]st, we will have a major update on monster cards, and before the new version is released, we need your story to divert the wizards' attention, and at the same time provide a new update for the new version." The release of the version has heated up the atmosphere”
"The name of this new version is - Fairy Tale Town"

Chapter 1 Little Cousin Blanche (Thanks to the book friend [Book Banjin] for the reward!)
Recently, the woods cabin has a new guest.
Because the second aunt Elena and the second uncle Shire are very busy, Flora is also busy with Lake Magic Chess and Chess Workshop, and the grandfather has no time to go home, so
The task of taking care of the children fell on Connor.
The child to be taken care of is Connor's little cousin Blanche.
But Connor doesn't care about children. He's still a child himself. He's very distressed now.
In Connor's bedroom, Blanche stayed obediently on Connor's bed, staring blankly at Connor who was working hard, without saying a word
For a long time, Connor couldn't stand this kind of staring, put down his paintbrush, and couldn't help but turned sideways to the little Lolita who was sitting on his bed with her knees hugged, "Blanche, why don't you go out to play with Ivan? You see, I still have to work, and I don't know what to do." way to play with you"
Little Loli blinked her big eyes and said, "I don't want to play with children."
"" Yiwen, you have been ridiculed by your younger cousin as a child!You were mocked by your little cousin!
Connor scratched his head and said, "Then do you want to read a book? I'm here"
"Those of yours are magic books, I don't think so." Little Lolita said calmly.
