Because everything is planned out when each wand is designed.
Whether it is the special wood used as the staff body or the special additives used as the staff core, they are all closely connected together through magic to form a delicate balance.
Therefore, no one can make additional modifications, carvings, or add any decorations to the wand.
That would destroy the coherence of the entire wand and eventually lead to its destruction.
Even a pure-blood family like the Malfoys, who are both rich and fond of showing off, have wands that are no different from those of other wizards and look very simple and plain.
So when Snape took out his wand, everyone would notice the silver ring fixed on the front end of the handle.
Soon, under the questioning of other professors, he quickly demonstrated the use of this equipment called "Staff Ring".
In just a few days, Zuo Si received orders from Headmaster Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Flitwick.
Dumbledore, in particular, directly offered a high price of five thousand gold Galleons and asked him to make it according to the maximum magic limit.
Needless to say, the headmaster wanted to use this thing as a trump card against Voldemort, and use it at the most critical moment to achieve the effect of a one-shot kill.
Under the introduction of Professor Snape, the potion master, many wealthy families and individuals in the wizarding world came to Hogwarts, just to customize an exclusive "staff ring" from Zuo Si.
In addition, the Ministries of Magic of several countries have personally sent people to discuss issues regarding cooperation.
After all, whether it is the technology of making scrolls or this spell storage device that can be equipped on the wand, it can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the Aurors.
To some extent, Aurors are equivalent to the police and army in the wizarding world.
Even the most stingy Ministry of Magic would not save money on this.
Finally, on the eve of Halloween, the review team jointly formed by the International Confederation of Wizards and the Wizengamot finally recognized the knowledge and techniques in Zuo Si's notebook.
This means that after simple supplementation and polishing, it can be published as a book.
Finally, at the suggestion of Dumbledore, Zuo Si chose to cooperate with Obscurus Books, which had published countless Hogwarts designated textbooks.
Almost at the same time, the British Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge also showed up at Hogwarts with his men, bringing not only a high bonus and the Order of Merlin, Second Class Medal, but also a contract with a total value of up to 100,000 gold galleons.
This includes the part of purchasing "Staff Rings" for Aurors and Ministry of Magic officials, as well as five public classes specifically explaining the techniques of making magic scrolls.
Looking at this old man who had a very kind appearance and attitude and was always smiling, Zuo Si immediately put one hand on his chest and bowed slightly.
"Thank you very much for making a special trip to bring me the honor and bonus, as well as the contract that will allow me to earn a lot of money."
"Hahaha! This is what I should do. You should know that your inventions have greatly honored our British Minister of Magic. Now wizards all over the world know that a genius who is capable of leading the next era has appeared in Hogwarts."
Cornelius Fudge laughed and patted Zuo Si's shoulder to show his closeness and encouragement.
The reason is very simple.
Zuo Si is too young, so young that he cannot pose a threat to his current position. This is completely different from the highly respected Dumbledore.
By the time Zuo Si grew up, Cornelius Fudge would have already retired or died of old age in his own home.
Therefore, he is very willing to promote and provide certain help to such a student who can bring him political achievements but at the same time cannot become the Minister of Magic in a short period of time no matter how famous he is.
"This is all thanks to your effective leadership. Without the annual funding provided by the Ministry of Magic, a Muggle-born little wizard like me would not be able to come to Hogwarts to study." Zuo Si complimented calmly.
He was obviously very good at dealing with this kind of vain guy who was obsessed with power and wealth.
In just a few words, the expression on the British Minister of Magic's face was like a blooming chrysanthemum, and his mouth was grinning from ear to ear.
"Look, what a polite child. I wish my grandson could be half as smart and sensible as this one." Cornelius Fudge sighed slightly.
Umbridge, who was her confidant and lackey, immediately agreed, "You are absolutely right. It seems that our little genius not only has an enviable talent in the field of magic, but is also very humble and likable. I think in a few years, when he is older, he can change the second-class Order of Merlin to the first-class."
"Well, you make a lot of sense. What do you think, Albus?"
Cornelius Fudge asked Dumbledore for advice in a slightly guilty tone.
It is not difficult to see from this action that he was actually very nervous and scared when facing the greatest wizard of the time.
After all, the position of Minister of Magic was given to him voluntarily by Dumbledore, which inevitably made Cornelius Fudge feel that he was inferior to Dumbledore.
What's more, who among his age doesn't know about Albus Dumbledore's legendary life and what he has done.
"You are the Minister of Magic, just make your own decision. I have no other opinion." Dumbledore responded indifferently.
Hearing this, Cornelius Fudge was obviously relieved, and immediately said with a smile: "In that case, let's wait a few years for the Ministry of Magic to take the lead in the second application. By the way, I heard that Harry Potter also entered Hogwarts this year. Where is he?"
Dumbledore pointed to the stadium in the distance and replied, "Harry and his friends are practicing flying. He is a very talented seeker. If you stay a few more days, you should be able to see a very exciting Quidditch game."
"Forget it. I'm very busy. Barty Crouch left a lot of mess for me to deal with when he stepped down." Cornelius Fudge decisively rejected the invitation.
Unlike most ordinary wizards who regarded Harry Potter as a savior, he knew very well that it was impossible for a baby to truly defeat a wizard as powerful as Voldemort, and there must be secrets that he didn't know about.
Therefore, the attitude towards this "savior" is also very complicated. On the one hand, they want to ensure that he can live safely, but on the other hand, they do not want this boy who survived the disaster to be influenced and controlled by Dumbledore all the time.
Therefore, under the influence of this psychology, Cornelius Fudge subconsciously chose to escape.
In this way, he led his group to a brief stay in Hogwarts and then left in a hurry.
Before leaving, he left only one Auror to communicate with Zuo Si to ensure that the "staff rings" ordered by the Ministry of Magic could be delivered in the shortest possible time.
"What do you think of the Minister of Magic?"
After Cornelius Fudge had completely walked away, Dumbledore suddenly asked a puzzling question.
"Neither good nor bad, just a qualified bureaucrat who is a little vain and greedy for power, that's all." Zuo Si gave his evaluation straightforwardly.
In his eyes, Fudge's image was far not as bad as described in the original book. At least before Voldemort's return, he had faithfully performed his duties.
In other words, Cornelius Fudge was more suitable to be a Minister of Magic in peacetime, but his performance in wartime was a bit disappointing.
Dumbledore smiled and nodded. "Very accurate. This is why I was willing to give him the position of Minister of Magic. Nothing is more suitable than a gentle and humane person to heal the British wizarding world that is frightened by Voldemort. And I find that you seem to be very good at dealing with people like Fudge, aren't you?"
"Dear Headmaster, if you have a little understanding of the bureaucracy in the Muggle world, you will understand that people like Fudge are almost everywhere in the UK." Zuo Si sneered in response. "In addition, I strongly recommend you to watch a political satire comedy called "Yes, Prime Minister". Believe me, at your age and experience, you will laugh until your stomach hurts after watching it."
"TV drama?"
Dumbledore stroked his beard, an interested expression on his face.
"That's right. You can think of it as a stage play that is closer to reality, with professional actors playing various roles. All you need to do is buy a TV, a VCR, and rent the tape of the TV series from a store, and then you can slowly enjoy it in a hotel or guesthouse in the Muggle world."
Zuo Si gave specific operational steps in a meaningful way.
When he first came into this world, he saw the promotional poster of this classic British drama in the window of a video rental shop on a London street.
So I know that on this magical version of Earth, there are many things that are very similar to my real hometown.
"It sounds like a lot of fun. Maybe I can try it out next summer.
Finally, congratulations on receiving the Order of Merlin, Second Class.
You know, this symbolizes the highest level of honor in the wizarding world.
It seems that I should also give you a special contribution award for the school.
Because your groundbreaking spell storage technology really pushed the wizarding world forward a huge step.
Oh, by the way, this is a book sample sent by Momo Ran Book Publishing House, and it is also a special gift for you as an author."
After that, Dumbledore took out a large book from the drawer of his desk. The cover of the book was printed with "Step-by-step Guide to Storing Spells - Volume 1".
Since the magic scroll technology involves the preparation of special ink, the processing of parchment, and some other necessary tools, the book looks particularly thick and heavy.
In addition, some spells are used on the pages of the book so that some of the highly complex steps can be presented to the readers in the form of virtual images, making it easier for them to observe and imitate.
Zuo Si took the book in his hand and flipped through it. He soon showed satisfaction: "Momo Ran Book Publishing House did a great job. Several key details are reflected. By the way, how much is the price of this book?"
"Twenty-five Galleons."
Dumbledore gave an exact number without hesitation.
Although it is slightly more expensive than other books, it is still a price that most wizards can afford.
What's more, after learning the techniques, wizards can also make scrolls of their best spells and sell them to others.
The rarer and more powerful the spell scroll, the higher the selling price will tend to be.
In addition, scroll trading will greatly promote exchanges within the magical community.
As a very far-sighted wizard, Dumbledore was very happy to see this development trend which was beneficial to everyone.
"That is to say, if nothing unexpected happens, I will soon become a wealthy man with a fortune of millions of gold galleons?" Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Although there were not many wizards in this world, it was easy to find tens of thousands of them to buy his books.
Especially the emerging scroll-making technology is definitely something fresh and fashionable for the always lifeless magic world.
It can be predicted that it will become a hot topic for a long time in the future.
"What do you plan to do with the money?" Dumbledore asked with interest.
If it were other first-year students, we might have to worry about them squandering money.
But Zuo Si had always shown a maturity far beyond his peers, so he was very curious about what the boy would do with so much money, or whether he would deposit it directly into the vault of Gringotts.
Zuo Si pretended to think for a moment, and quickly responded: "First of all, I need a house, a castle or a villa in the woods where there are no ordinary Muggles living around, so that I can conduct various interesting magic experiments.
Secondly, I need to buy a lot of expensive and rare materials, try to make more and more powerful magic items, and learn from Professor Snape to brew the highest quality potions.
Finally, and most importantly, I want to buy some magical animals and raise them at home to see if I can breed various interesting new species.
The world of magic is so colorful and I want to know more about it than just what I learned in school."
"To know everything about the wizarding world? That's a really great personal goal." Dumbledore's eyes revealed a hint of approval.
He was obviously very happy that Zuo Si did not focus on power, rule or dark magic, but observed and understood the magical world from a broader perspective.
"By the way, I heard that Hagrid, the gamekeeper at Hogwarts, is very knowledgeable about magical animals, and can often buy some interesting creatures, such as the big dog with three heads. If you don't mind, can I ask him to help buy some interesting magical animals?" Zuo Si took the opportunity to make a request.
After all, Hagrid was able to secretly raise dangerous creatures like the eight-eyed spider Aragog while at school. This year, he easily got a three-headed dog and dragon eggs, and later also got magical animals such as the Hippogriff and the Blast-tailed Skrewt that could cause amazing destructive power.
And more than half of these things are dangerous species that are expressly prohibited from being kept by the Ministry of Magic.
Not to mention that he had publicly expressed more than once that he wanted to raise a Chimera beast, which has a great reputation in Greek mythology.
This is an extremely bloodthirsty and violent creature with a lion's head, a goat's body and a fire dragon's tail.
So far, in the history recorded by wizards, only one person has successfully hunted it, which shows how difficult it is to deal with.
Its danger is much higher than that of any other species of fire dragon.
This can be seen from the classification given by the Ministry of Magic.
Even a Chimaera egg is a Class A prohibited trade item.
Therefore, Zuo Si believed that Hagrid must have some illegal smuggling channels, otherwise it would be impossible for him to buy these dangerous creatures and their eggs again and again.
Dumbledore smiled and nodded. "Of course! I think Hagrid would be very happy to discuss magical creatures with you. But promise me, don't let him get any creatures that are too dangerous."
"That shouldn't be said to me, but to Hagrid. From what I've heard, he seems to have an inexplicable love and obsession with big, fierce creatures."
After saying this, Zuo Si stuffed a few bags of gold galleons into the shoulder bag he was carrying, then picked up the medals and book samples and turned to leave the principal's office.
Due to the presence of the Traceless Extension Spell in this world, space-related magic items are quite common.
Although the Ministry of Magic strictly controls it and prohibits its private use.
Only registered items such as school suitcases and family tents can use this spell to expand the internal space.
But there is hardly any wizard who will strictly abide by it.
Moreover, the bureaucrats in the Ministry of Magic are well aware of this and usually turn a blind eye to it so as not to cause too much disturbance or commotion.
In Dumbledore's eyes, the small shoulder bag on Zuo Si's body was a prop whose internal space was expanded by the Traceless Extension Charm.
But he had no idea that the magic principle of the dimensional bag was fundamentally different from the traceless extension spell.
The latter is a false space maintained by spells. Once it is affected by the dispel magic or stop spell, it will become ineffective in a moment, and the things inside will fly out.
In comparison, the dimensional bag is more stable.
Unless it was a horrific spell like the Great Disintegration that indiscriminately tore apart magical items and magical protections, spells like Dispel Magic and Stop Magic would generally have absolutely no effect.
Therefore, Zuo Si would put all important things in the bag he carried with him.
Only unimportant things would be thrown into the box that was cast with the Traceless Extension Charm.
After leaving the principal's office, he did not go to the lobby on the first floor, but came to a room on the right side of the third floor that was specially assigned to him to conduct some experiments.
As soon as she entered the room, Hermione, who had been waiting for a long time, noticed the purple medal and immediately couldn't help but exclaimed: "Merlin's Order of Merlin, Second Class? The Ministry of Magic finally awarded you this honor!"
"Yes, it was sent along with the prize money."
Zuo Si threw it on the table in the corner of the room like trash, without even the interest to take a second look at it.
Because in his eyes, honor is a trick to fool people. Apart from slightly increasing one's fame, it has no practical effect at all.
Especially in the world of magic, no one dares to look down on a wizard who truly possesses powerful strength, even if he has no honor.
And those clowns who get a series of titles through other means will never be truly respected no matter how many honors they have (yes, I'm talking about you, Gilderoy Lockhart).
Hermione had undoubtedly noticed Zuo Si's attitude towards the Order of Merlin, and asked in confusion, "Aren't you happy at all?"
"Happy? Why should I be happy about something so worthless?
Did you know that in today's wizarding world, anyone with enough power can find a way to get themselves an Order of Merlin?
In my opinion, this thing is actually no different from many awards selected by the Muggle world. It is just a disguised form of fame and fortune.
It's best to have it naturally, but it doesn't matter if you don't have it.
Because when your strength, power or wealth reaches a certain level, these things will naturally come to you.
Well, let's stop talking about these spoilers and get on with our work today."
After saying that, Zuo Si took out his magic wand and waved it gently, placing the precious metals in the huge glass jars not far away on the table one by one.
These gold and silver have been soaked in the magic potion solution for a long time, and now they are emitting a slightly pungent smell.
Needless to say, they are the basic materials used to make "Staff Ring".
As Hermione spoke, she quickly raised her wand and cast a cleansing spell on the metal blocks, and tried to use transfiguration magic to shape them into different shapes as required.
Zuo Si responded with a smile: "This explanation is actually not wrong to some extent.
But the problem is that you overlooked the most crucial part, which is who has the right to award honors to others.
Is this kind of selection really fair?
Are there no personal emotions or interests involved?
The answer is obviously no.
Because everyone, including you and me, is subjective, and true fairness is impossible.
Therefore, any organization that awards honors to others will inevitably become a tool manipulated by powerful people.
As award-awarding organizations become more corrupt and decadent, those shady deals will sooner or later be exposed to the public.
At that time, the honors they bestow will also be questioned, and will not become an asset but a burden.
I sincerely advise you not to take honor too seriously. It is best to regard it as a by-product of success and a spice of life.
What's more, honor represents past success, not future success.
If you accidentally indulge in the praise, flattery and compliments from the outside world, it won’t take long before you completely lose yourself and become a pitiful person who is afraid of failure, lacks ambition, and only knows how to stay in the same place. "
There is no doubt that this view on honor gave Hermione an indescribable shock.
She simply couldn't imagine how Zuo Si could have such vision at such an age, as if he could easily see through the traps that even adults would unknowingly fall into.
Especially that terrifying rationality that will not be affected by any external factors, which is exactly the same as Headmaster Dumbledore.
"Don't be distracted! I just received an order from the Ministry of Magic. Today's workload is quite heavy."
Seeing that the girl was a little distracted, Zuo Si immediately gave her a gentle reminder.
"Ah! Sorry."
Hermione awoke from her wild thoughts with a start, and quickly adjusted her mindset to focus all her energy on the matter at hand.
She didn't want to lose this assistant job that made countless senior students jealous.
After all, following Zuo Si, you can learn all kinds of knowledge and skills all the time.
In addition, you can get generous bonuses for every completed order.
The Weasley twin brothers, who were also from Gryffindor house, were almost going crazy with envy, and kept asking when Zuo Si would recruit again.
If necessary, they are even willing to act as "guinea pigs".
As both of them entered a state of extreme concentration, one customized "staff ring" after another was made.
Hermione is responsible for processing materials and shaping them into various forms according to customer requirements, or adding some family advice and inscriptions.
Zuo Si was responsible for manufacturing the most core and critical functional part of this storage device.
They worked from one in the afternoon until after ten, and only managed to complete seven.
Looking at these equipments that have been sought after by a large number of wizards recently, Hermione subconsciously wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with a sigh: "It's not easy. We have finally finished all the previous orders. Starting tomorrow, we can make orders from the Ministry of Magic. However, since the number of this order is too large, I suggest that we hire two more people."
"Do you have any good candidate recommendation code?"
Zuo Si packed the seven finished products into pre-prepared boxes, and then used a magic wand to carve the customer's name and address on each box.
I plan to wait until tomorrow morning and hand it over to the Hogwarts owl for delivery.
"I think George and Fred are good choices. Unlike the idiot Ron, they are both very smart and have done very well in several major courses. They even made many small inventions in private. Most importantly, the twins are very eager to make money, so they will obey orders 100%."
Hermione spoke without hesitation about who she thought was the best candidate.
"Okay, that's them. Remember to bring these two funny guys here early tomorrow morning." Zuo Si agreed without even thinking about it.
On the one hand, it was because he really liked this pair of twins who were always optimistic. On the other hand, George and Fred were indeed very talented and might be able to provide some inspiration.
"It's settled then. I'll tell them the good news when I return to the Gryffindor common room."
With that, Hermione took her wand and cast a cleansing spell on herself to get rid of the sweat and accidental stains.
Just as she picked up her backpack and was about to push the door open to walk out, she suddenly heard Zuo Si's voice behind her.
"Wait! I happen to have a sample of 'Teaching You How to Store Spells - Volume 1' sent by the publishing house. It would be a waste to keep it here anyway, so I'll give it to you as a gift."
"Give it to me?!"
Hermione stopped immediately, her eyes revealing infinite surprise.
Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "That's right. Just consider it as my recognition of your excellent work and serious attitude towards learning. Remember not to be proud and complacent, because with your intelligence and talent, you should be able to do better."
"Thank...thank you. Could you please sign the first page of this book for me?" Hermione asked in a low voice with her face flushed with excitement.
"Of course."
Zuo Si raised his wand and gently slid it across the first page of the book.
moment!
A line of glowing cursive characters appeared out of thin air, and their color changed according to the intensity of the ambient light.
Needless to say, this signature-like magic is the spell he transformed from the Zero Ring Arcane Secret Seal.
But unfortunately, due to the huge difference in the magical environment of the two worlds, the overall transformation is extremely difficult.
So far, Zuo Si has only successfully transformed a few frequently used arcane magics from the zero ring to the third ring.
However, Hermione was very aware of something and asked in a surprised tone, "Is this a new spell?"
"I guess so. There's no need to make a fuss. In fact, in Hogwarts, many students above the third and fourth grades will invent some messy spells, including the Weasley twins you mentioned just now." Zuo Si put away his wand and shrugged indifferently.
In this world without any rules or restrictions, the threshold for creating magic and spells is so low that it is probably unimaginable for any Faerun arcane spellcaster.
In addition, there are equipment such as wands that can enhance the perception and control of magic, so there are many spells circulating among Hogwarts students that are not very harmful but extremely insulting.
For example, there is a spell that makes one's front teeth grow bigger, a spell that makes one's legs dance crazily and uncontrollably, a spell that makes one fart constantly, and so on...
I guess the malicious element in it may not be as high as the prank element.
"George and Fred can actually invent spells?!" Hermione opened her mouth in disbelief.
Because in her impression, this pair of funny guys should be the kind of people who do nothing all day long and just think about making money, exploring, and having fun.
It is already quite puzzling to be able to achieve excellent grades in a few courses that one is good at, not to mention inventing something that sounds very "high-end".
Zuo Si smiled and nodded, "Yes. It's incredible, isn't it? In fact, every child of the Weasley family has very good talents and smart minds. At least they are definitely excellent among their peers. Of course, Ron is an exception."
Phew!
Hermione couldn't help but laugh out loud.
There's nothing we can do about it. The youngest son of the Weasley family performs so far behind his older brothers.
After saying goodnight to each other, the girl quickly turned around and returned to the Gryffindor common room, carrying the heavy book.
When she gave the command and walked in, she suddenly found that Harry and Ron had not rested yet, but were sitting by the fireplace discussing something in a low voice.
Out of curiosity, Hermione immediately stepped forward and asked, "It's so late, why aren't you going to bed? What are you doing here? Don't tell me you have agreed with Malfoy to have a wizard duel at midnight again."
"Hey! Of course not. Malfoy wouldn't dare to act rashly until he figures out how many spell scrolls we have. In fact, since Halloween is coming soon, we are discussing how to celebrate it." Ron replied with a silly grin.
"I heard from senior students that Hogwarts holds a grand banquet every Halloween. Not only will there be a lot of delicious food, but there will also be corresponding decorations, and occasionally there will be bands invited to perform." Harry added excitedly.
Since he had never celebrated any proper festivals since he was a child, he was inevitably looking forward to the upcoming Halloween.
Seeing that the two guys were still as out of tune as ever, Hermione couldn't help but sigh slightly: "Well - then you two can continue to sit here and imagine the splendor of Halloween. I'm terribly tired today. I must take a bath and have a good sleep."
"Are you helping Soth again? This is the fourth time this week, right? Your schedule is so tight every day, is it really necessary to work so hard?" Ron asked in confusion.
"First of all, I can learn a lot from being an assistant. Secondly, for every order I complete, Soth will give me a bonus ranging from dozens to hundreds of Galleons. If I were any senior student at Hogwarts, they would definitely do their best like me. In addition, your brothers are all drooling over this job."
As she said this, Hermione raised her chin slightly and revealed an expression of pride and pride.
"What? Dozens of Galleons, hundreds of Galleons! Where did he get so much money to give you? And what about that order?"
Ron was so stunned that he didn't even notice the pumpkin juice in his hand spilled on his body.
He originally thought that the girl's so-called assistant work was actually just for nothing, just like many interest groups formed by Hogwarts students themselves.
"My stupid brother!
Don't you know that since the reports in the Daily Prophet and Wizard Weekly were published, many wizards from all over the world have come to visit Soth? And he can also make something called a "staff ring" that can store a spell on a wand.
It only takes a thought to be triggered when encountering a dangerous situation.
Therefore, many wealthy people and pure-blood families come to him for customization."
Accompanied by a familiar voice, George was the first to run in from outside and hugged Ron's neck.
Although the latter tried desperately to break free, unfortunately he was too weak to be a match for his brothers who went to Quidditch training every now and then.
Fred also sat down next to Ron and teased in a half-joking tone, "Dear Miss Granger, don't waste your time talking to poor Ron about this. With his little brain, he simply can't understand what dozens or even hundreds of gold Galleons mean."
"That's right! Ron can't even take out a single gold Galleon right now." George immediately followed up to finish him off.
In the blink of an eye, Ron's face was flushed by his two twin brothers, and he looked angry and inferior.
However, unfortunately, no one present noticed his predicament, and even Harry subconsciously ignored the reaction of his best friend.
Seeing that she just happened to meet George and Fred, Hermione immediately invited them: "Are you interested in being South's assistant?"
"Of course! We're very interested!"
Fred nodded quickly, as if he was afraid that if he answered too late he would miss this golden opportunity.
George used his comedic talent, rubbing his hands like a fly, and tried in a humble tone: "How much salary or bonus can we get? Can it be one tenth of yours?"
Hermione rolled her eyes in annoyance. "Stop it. At the beginning, you can only get one-third of my income. Once you become proficient, you can get the same bonus as me."
"Oh - Merlin's beard! We're going to be rich!" George jumped up and cheered.
"Hail! Great, noble, omnipotent, omniscient Miss Granger! Please allow your most loyal servant to kiss your boots."
Having said that, Fred really lay down on the ground and wanted to kiss the girl's instep.
This action instantly frightened Hermione so much that she stepped back repeatedly and shouted, "Enough! If you continue to do this, I will disqualify you."
"OK! OK! From now on, you are our master. Let us go east and never west."
"When can we start working? What will the content be?"
The twins sandwiched the girl on both sides and kept asking questions.
The three of them talked for about twenty minutes before returning to their respective dormitories for sleep.
As for Harry and Ron who were left aside, they showed helpless expressions and could only return to the dormitory to rest.
Early the next morning, George and Fred, who had been so excited and sleepless the whole night, appeared in the room assigned to Zuo Si in the school with dark circles under their eyes.
Noticing the twin brothers' mental state, Zuo Si immediately asked in an uncertain tone: "Did you two go out for a night out again last night?"
"How could that be! We were simply too excited and ended up having a little insomnia." George hurriedly explained.
"Well, I hope this won't affect your work efficiency. Hermione, introduce them to the assistants' jobs. We have to complete at least ten staff rings today."
Zuo Si simply handed the two of them over to the girl to take care of, and began to take out tools to prepare for engraving the inscription.
Soon, with Hermione's explanation and demonstration, George and Fred quickly understood what they needed to do.
After a while, they all entered into a very focused working state, producing one semi-finished product after another.
Perhaps because they are older and their magic level is much higher than that of first-year Hermione, the work efficiency of these two novices is not much slower than that of the latter experienced ones.
Excluding class time, I completed fifteen of them by the time I took a break at night.
Of course, the price was that George and Fred were exhausted, and Hermione looked like she had just been pulled out of the water. Her clothes were soaked with sweat and stuck to her skin, which was very uncomfortable.
"You all did a great job today. Here, this is your bonus, take it and divide it among yourselves."
Zuo Si generously threw a bag of gold galleons he had prepared in advance on the table.
With a loud bang, George, who had been lying on the ground with his tongue hanging out like a dog the previous second, suddenly jumped up from the ground, rushed straight to the table, and poured out more than 300 gold Galleons in it.
Immediately afterwards, his entire body seemed to be under a spell, with all the muscles tensed and stiff.
Only the eyes revealed a scorching light that was enough to melt everything.
Fred on the side was no worse. He jumped up and rolled on the gold Galleons, letting out a creepy laugh.
"Hahahaha! It's gold Galleons! All of them! Not even a silver Sickle or a bronze Knut! Oh my god! I feel like I'm dreaming right now!"
"Fred, come and give me a good hit."
George came to his senses and put his face close to his twin brother.
"At your service, brother."
Without saying a word, Fred swung his arm and gave the former a loud slap in the face.
"Snap!" After the crisp sound, George turned several times on the spot, and a palm-shaped handprint appeared on his face.
But instead of getting angry, he hugged Fred and started laughing with him.
It must be said that with these two funny guys around, even Hermione felt that her mental fatigue was suddenly restored a lot, and she covered her mouth and laughed secretly.
As for Zuo Si, he had made up his mind that he would never allow Voldemort or other Death Eaters to kill the Weasley twins.
Because if the world lacks any one of them, it will lose a lot of laughter.
