Days to grind friendship at Hogwarts

"Qiu? Why are you here?"

Glenn looked at the girl and said with some surprise.

Qiu glanced at him and asked coquettishly: "What? Can't I come to you?"

"Yes! Of course I can!" Glenn nodded quickly without any hesitation.

"In fact, Miss Qiu Zhang has been sitting here waiting for you for two hours."

Old Ollivander, who was quietly watching behind the counter, suddenly said something.

Glenn touched his hair and said with a little embarrassment: "How about I treat you to ice cream? As compensation for waiting for so long."

"Okay." Qiu almost didn't think about it and nodded happily.

"Goodbye, Mr. Ollivander, thank you for chatting with me for so long and causing you trouble." Before leaving the house, Qiu didn't forget to turn around and say.

Grandfather waved his hands with a smile and watched the two of them leave. The kind smile on his face proved that he had already begun to take advantage of these CPs.

"What did you and my grandfather talk about?" Glenn couldn't help but ask as he walked on the gravel road in Diagon Alley.

Qiu glanced at him sideways and shook her head with a smile: "You take your time and guess, I won't tell you."

After she finished speaking, without waiting for Glenn to react, she quickened her pace and walked towards Florin Fusco's ice cream shop.

Compared with the well-behaved person she was in the wand shop before, she had obviously changed her appearance. Glenn was alone in the wind for a while, and then quickly caught up with her.

"One is milky peach ice cream, and the other is the same, vanilla cookie."

At the entrance of the ice cream shop, he finally caught up with Qiu and spoke to Fusco first.

Qiu looked back at him slightly surprised, nodded and said, "Not bad, you actually remember that I like this taste."

"It should, it should!" Glenn said quickly and humbly.

The two of them found a quiet place with no one around under the awning facing the street, chatting casually about each other's current situation.

There were not many customers at the moment, so Fusco quickly served the ice cream. Just like last time, the portion was twice as much as the normal portion, and the cup containing the ice cream almost overflowed.

"You kid, how long has it been since you've been here?" Fusco complained, pretending to be dissatisfied.

Glenn shrugged and said with a smile: "You don't charge me every time I come. If I don't come, won't you lose less money?"

Fusco was stunned: "Don't say it, this seems to make sense."

There was a hint of laughter in his tone, and it didn't look like he had been fooled at all, he was just playing along with the joke.

Qiu scooped up a spoonful of slightly chilled ice cream and put it into his mouth, the smile on his face became a little brighter.

"Sure enough, it still tastes the same. It's really good. I wish I could eat it more often."

Glenn looked at her with a smile and said, "Isn't that simple? Just ask Fusco to open a branch in Hogsmeade."

"You told me to open it, and they opened it. Why?" Qiu couldn't help but rolled her eyes and said angrily.

"Tell me, if he rents this store from my house, is that okay?" Glenn blinked and asked with a smile.

Only then did Qiu remember that the Ollivanders were the big landowners of Diagon Alley, so naturally this store was also the property of the Glenn family.

In fact, if Fusco really opened a branch in Hogsmeade, and with the familiar secret passages of Hogwarts, he could eat delicious ice cream anytime he wanted, wouldn't it be a big deal?

Beautiful things.

With this thought, she became interested and turned her attention to Fusco, who had not yet left.

Fusco never expected that he was just giving away two ice creams for free, but for some reason, he suddenly started talking about opening a branch.

"How about, Mr. Fusco, let's find out about the Hogsmeade branch?" Glenn put down his glass bowl and said.

"I have such a small store with few employees. How can I afford to open a branch?" Fusco thought for a while and couldn't help but shook his head.

Glenn immediately started to lie: "If you want me to tell you, you can't just take things at face value. Where is Hogsmeade? It is the only village in the UK that is full of wizards. It has more residents than Diagon Alley, plus Hogwart.

With so many students, what a broad prospect is this?"

He played a word game.

There are indeed more residents in Hogsmeade than in Diagon Alley, but he said nothing about the huge floating population in Diagon Alley.

Fusco didn't notice it for a moment. He was really moved. He just vaguely felt that something was wrong.

He thought for a while and said: "I still feel it's a bit risky. Although there are many students in Hogwarts, we can't go to Hogsmeade every day, right?"

"Things can't be considered this way." Glenn said immediately, "In Hogwarts, students in third grade and above have several opportunities to participate in Hogsmeade weekends every semester. After a year, it is always better than them.

Do you go to the street a lot? Think about it, is it the summer vacation every year when your business is most prosperous? "

"That makes sense..." Fusco tasted it carefully and nodded.

Glenn struck while the iron was hot and added: "Let me tell you a little tidbit, Dumbledore's favorite is sweets. Every time he likes a new candy, it will set off a craze among the students. Do you know that because of this?

Wealth code, how many galleons can Honeydukes make from Hogwarts every year?"

His mouth was a little dry as he spoke, so he took two bites of ice cream before continuing.

"Given my relationship with Dumbledore, asking him to mention your ice cream occasionally is as simple as drinking water?"

"Is it really as good as you say?" Fusco felt more and more that what he said was reasonable. Although he was still questioning it, he was already thinking about how much money he had saved over the years.

"Besides, just opening a branch doesn't mean you should give up the old store in Diagon Alley. You can stay in Diagon Alley during the summer vacation, wait until Hogsmeade weekends, and then go to the branch for a few days to keep an eye on the rest.

For your business, just hire a few people and train them."

"In that case..." Fusco couldn't help but start to enjoy a bright future, "It seems like it's not impossible to consider."

Seeing that he had been persuaded to change his mind, Glenn unleashed his trump card.

"Let's do this." He said generously, "I can invest 500 Galleons to help build the branch, and only need one-tenth of the dividend. At the same time, the Diagon Alley store will also be exempted from rent for half a year. How about it?

, is this condition very sincere?"

As the only heir of the Ollivander family, Glenn is naturally qualified to adjust the rent, and Fusco has no doubt about this.

Coupled with the substantial investment of 500 Galleons, it really made him feel full of attraction.
