Chapter 428: Money Making Plan
Exams were over, which meant that all students were free to play on the grounds, which of course they did.
While waiting for the results to come out, many people did not want to stay in the castle, but preferred to stay outside in the grounds and did not go back until dark.
For example, Kyle and Cedric.
After lunch, they sat around the Black Lake and discussed their upcoming vacation arrangements.
"Will you all go to this year's Quidditch World Cup?" Cedric asked excitedly: "I can't believe they actually set the final venue here... Don't forget, we haven't had one for thirty years. Hosted a competition.”
"Of course I'm going." Fred also looked very excited. He had been dealing with textbooks every day for the past month, and the boring life was driving him crazy.
The Quidditch World Cup could not have come at a better time.
“Dad should be able to get the tickets,” George said. “If there are any extra, I can keep them for you, so you don’t have to spend money to buy them.”
Tickets for the Quidditch World Cup are still very expensive.
Cedric went to see it once before the start of his second grade. According to him, they only bought two very marginal positions for a hundred galleons.
At that position, the players on the field can only be seen with a telescope.
But even so, tickets are still in short supply.
Fortunately, they are hosting the competition this year. As an employee of the Ministry of Magic, you always have some privileges.
“My father should be able to get tickets too,” Cedric said. “He has a good relationship with the people in the Department of Magical Sports and Sports, so I can try and see if I can get him to ask for two more.
Kyle, you should be able to... Hmm, what are you thinking? "
"What?" Hearing someone calling him, Kyle suddenly raised his head and said, "Oh, it's okay. Give the extra tickets to Kangna and Qiu. I'll be fine."
“What were you thinking about just now?” Cedric asked.
“I’m thinking about how to make money.” Kyle touched his chin and was about to continue talking when he suddenly saw Professor Lupine walking towards this side.
He seemed to have just come back from outside, and his expression was solemn and preoccupied. He didn't even notice that there were several people sitting in front of him.
“Professor Lupine!”
Kyle shouted. He seemed to be startled and quickly raised his head. His whole body was extremely nervous.
But soon, Professor Lupine discovered Kel and the others, as well as Cedric, who was a few inches away from his toes.
If Kyle hadn't shouted that sound just now, he probably would have kicked the opponent.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Diggory." Professor Lupine said quickly: "I was thinking about something and didn't notice there was someone in front of me."
"It's okay, Professor." Cedric said nonchalantly: "Are you also here to relax by the Black Lake?"
"ah?"
Professor Lupine was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the road in front of him was not leading to the castle. He was going in the wrong direction.
"Yes...yes, you are right, I came to relax." Professor Luping said hesitantly, "But I have to go back now, there are still a lot of things to do..."
With that said, he turned and walked towards the castle.
"That's weird..." Cedric muttered in a low voice: "Why do I feel that something is wrong with Professor Lupine? He was not like this before."
"Who knows, maybe he's a little scared." Fred shrugged, "Don't forget the curse of Defense Against the Dark Arts, and it's the end of the school year, so it's normal for him to be nervous."
Others also thought it made sense, so they didn’t pay much attention to it.
As soon as he left, George asked eagerly: "By the way, Kyle, tell me your plan, how are we going to make money." "That's it..."
Kyle retracted his gaze towards the castle and continued: "Remember those cheering props we sold to fans of various colleges before?"
"Of course." Fred said with a smile: "Those things made us a lot of money."
“That’s all I have to say.”
Kyle said, "The Quidditch World Cup, the number of people going to watch the game is simply not comparable to the number of students in the castle... If we make some fireworks in advance that can blow up clovers, Irish flags, badges and the like... "
“That will definitely sell out!” Fred and George’s eyes became brighter and brighter, and they thumped the grass in annoyance at the same time.
They were just looking forward to the game, how could they forget such an important thing.
The Quidditch World Cup can be regarded as one of the biggest events in the wizarding world. I believe that people who go to the game will not mind spending a little money to buy some souvenirs and the like.
If their product is attractive enough, it is almost the same as picking up money.
Thinking about this, the eyes of the two people seemed to gradually turn into the shape of golden galleons.
“What do you think?” Cedric asked,
Qiu and Kangna on the side also looked over with interest.
While watching the game, you can also earn some pocket money. No one wants to miss this good thing.
“Let’s start with the simple ones, such as fireworks that can be fired continuously, and moving flags, etc.” Kyle said: “There is only more than a month before the start of the game, so we have to do as much as possible. "
“Leave the fireworks to us.” George patted his chest, “This is what we are best at.”
"I think a badge that can amplify sounds would also work." Fred added: "We learned this magic formula in the ancient rune class last month, and it just comes in handy."
Cedric nodded beside him. They learned it together.
“Then add it, but don’t make it too complicated, as that will take up too much time.” Kyle said.
“How about hairpins and hats.” Kangna also said: “These are simple enough and obvious enough, and they should be favored by many people.”
…
A few people were sitting by the lake, discussing happily, and didn't even notice that the sky was getting darker.
Until a splash of water poured on their heads for no apparent reason.
"Is it raining?" George jumped up from the ground with wet hair.
But when he looked up, he realized that although the sky was dark, it was clear, and he could still see the stars, with no sign of rain at all.
However, Kyle noticed that on the quiet lake, a long tentacle was retracting. Obviously, the splash just now was the big squid, reminding them that it was time to return to the castle.
“Oh my god, is it so late?” Qiu said subconsciously.
“Did we miss dinner…”
“Maybe not yet, I didn’t notice it at all…”
Several people quickly got up and walked quickly back to the castle.
Fortunately, dinner had just started. The auditorium was brightly lit and full of people. Because of the holiday, everyone seemed very happy and the auditorium was very lively.
