Hogwarts vampire professor

"So how much salary do you want?" Dracula was speechless and then asked.

Dobby had a very bright smile on his face and tears of joy filled his eyes again.

"Mr. Dracula, Dobby wants wages just to buy enough clothes for Dobby! Compared with wages, Dobby still prefers work!" Dobby said, "So, Dobby is a free little boy. Elf, sir, all Dobby needs is a Sickle a day and one day off every month!”

"One...Sicco every day?" Dracula's eyes twitched, "Your monthly salary is not even two galleons, and you can't even afford a nice set of clothes."

How can there be such a conscientious labor force in this world? I am afraid that even the black-hearted capitalists in the Muggle world would not dare to exploit employees in this way. If they dared to know that there was such an employee, they would probably be moved to tears...

"It's okay, sir, the set of clothes Dobby is holding is enough to last a long time!" Dobby said very contentedly, "Dobby has already calculated that three sets of clothes are enough for each year! Summer and winter One set for each, one for spring and autumn!”

"So when you talk about getting dressed... you just want to find something to wear, instead of changing into new and better-looking clothes?" After hearing Dobby's magical speech, Dracula became more and more helpless.

"Of course, house elves don't need those fancy clothes!" Dobby said confidently, "Dobby can even wear a pillowcase for several years!"

"I can't meet your request." Dracula shook his head, "What kind of salary is a silver coin a day? If this gets out, others may think that I am the kind of stingy evil capitalist... You are embarrassing me. Where to put it?"

"Let's do it this way. According to your conditions, exchange Sico for Galleons, and the salary is one Galleons per day." He did a little calculation and changed a condition that he thought was not good. "As for rest days, just follow Huo Is it acceptable for Gwarts students to have weekends off?"

"So that works out... seven galleons a week, two days off?" Dobby counted on his fingers for a long time, and suddenly shuddered, "So much money and vacation time... this is too scary!"

"Seven galleons a week is more..." Dracula was silent for a moment and then said, "Dobby, do you know that if your salary is a little less and your holidays are deducted, you will be like those who are free The house elves are not much different."

"But...Dobby is a free house elf..." Dobby stared at Dracula in front of him with his big green eyes in confusion.

Dracula put his hand on his forehead.

Free and freedom are the same word, "free". Dobby understood Dracula's money-free house elves as free house elves.

"Mr. Dracula, it's not that Dobby wants to bargain, but that you gave us too much!" Dobby seemed to see that Dracula had nothing to say, and explained flatteringly, "Mr... Dobby Loves freedom, but Dobby doesn’t want too much freedom. Dobby prefers to work!”

It would have been better if Dobby didn't explain, but the explanation made Dracula completely helpless.

It can only be said that even for a progressive elf in the magical world like Dobby, escaping from the mental confinement of house elves does not happen overnight.

Others bargain with their bosses to get higher wages and more vacation time. It's better for Dobby, in turn, he will push down his salary and compress his holidays as much as possible. If he can't achieve his ideas, he will be in a hurry with you...

"Okay, the treatment is up to you." Dracula waved his hand and drove the speechless house elf out of the office, "You can go to Gryffindor's dormitory and worship you. Go apologize to the great Harry Potter!"

…

Since the day of the first Quidditch match in November, Hogwarts has had a house elf in need of wages.

Although the wages he needs are nothing like Dracula...

Dracula directly threw a large bag of gold galleons to Dobby, covering his wages of more than twenty years.

Dobby felt terrible about receiving so much wealth at once, so he returned the gold coins to Dracula. He had only two galleons left for himself, which represented his wages for a month plus four separate days.

House elves are also good at housework, keeping Dracula's office in order.

After becoming a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor and getting such an office, Dracula never bothered to decorate and organize it. Basically, after seeing that it was a little messy, he just used a cleaning spell to get rid of the dust in the office. , and then continue to let it maintain that "messy beauty".

As for the décor in the office, Dracula didn't make many changes.

He just used transfiguration to turn the curtains into thick black curtains to block the sunlight that might come in during the day; he hung a few bats that looked like specimens but were actually alive and well at the door of the office to provide lighting for the office. Provide a warning to prevent someone from sneaking in.

There are not many other furniture and other furnishings - a desk, two soft armchairs, a comfortable sofa, a bookshelf with a few books, a wine rack for wine, and a A candy stand for lollipops was added later, as well as a large bed.

After Dobby took over the management of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office, there were earth-shaking changes here.

The desk and bookshelf became neat and tidy, there were no wrinkles on the bed, and every corner of the office was spotless.

Dobby also deliberately followed Dracula's preferences and added a lot of decorations to the unused space in the office with the funds Dracula gave him to purchase——

Such as the black Gothic coffee table, the large vase engraved with devil wings, the tall dark clock, the crystal lamp decorated like a moon...

After all the furniture was laid, Dobby found that a corner of the office was still empty, so he planted a few bright red flowers watered with blood.

This is a flower that comes from the ancient magic world in the Himalayas. Its Sanskrit name seems to be Manzhu Shahua. It has no leaves when it blooms, and its petals are as bright red as blood, and its whole body is stained with a coquettish temperament.

Dobby has been taking care of Malfoy Manor for a long time and is very good at using magic to grow flowers. He thought that these strange flowers fit Dracula's temperament very well, so he cultivated them very carefully.

As Dracula's new butler, Dobby has taken care of Dracula's office very carefully.

But it only took him a week to purchase, clean and decorate Dracula's office.

Then Dobby was at leisure.

In the past time, he not only had to rely on his own house elf to take care of the entire huge Malfoy Manor, but he also had to accept various accusations and various temporary orders from the Malfoys.

Even so, Dobby was still able to find time to sneak out and "rescue" Harry Potter from the threat of the Dark Lord...

One can imagine how efficient his work is.

Now it was just an office, and even with the additional duties of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom and the Duel Club, Dobby still felt bored.

When there was not enough work, Dobby felt a deep sense of guilt and believed that this kind of lazy life was not what a qualified house elf should enjoy.

So, he slipped into the kitchen on the basement floor of Hogwarts Castle and went to help other house elves working in Hogwarts...

"Buddy, let me tell you, I am definitely the most successful house elf now!" In the kitchen of Hogwarts, while washing the dishes, Dobby stood tall and looked at the house elf he had just met next to him. The elf shows off.

"Why do you say that?" Budi, the house elf working in the kitchen, asked curiously.

"Because I am a house elf with my own wages!" Dobby said proudly, "I can earn 30 silver sikols a month, which means that in less than half a year, I can buy a house elf with my own money. Get dressed!"

"What?!" Buddy showed a horrified expression and moved a few steps to the side, as if he didn't want to stand with Dobby. "Who is your master, who can let you sink to the point of getting paid? Buddy really Shame on you!”

"Come on, Buddy, don't you want to wear new clothes?" Dobby asked, "Being able to earn wages means that we can buy clothes with our own money!"

Dobby's topic about buying clothes finally aroused Buddy's curiosity. He suppressed the unreal feeling in his heart and asked:

"So why does your master give you wages, Dobby?"

"Because Dobby has no master, Dobby is a free house elf!" Dobby said, "I was hired by Mr. Dracula. He paid me to work for him."

"Mr. Dracula is truly the greatest man I have ever met. He is willing to pay house elves and even give them holidays!"

"What?!" Budi was so frightened that he shook his hands violently and smashed the plate in his hands on the ground. "You said you have no master and are a free house elf?!"

"And you actually have a vacation? How can you be the most successful house elf? You are clearly a disgrace to house elves!"

Buddy's piercing scream attracted the attention of all the house elves in the kitchen.

The elf supervisor in the kitchen was chopping vegetables. When he heard Budi's voice, his face darkened.

The elf supervisor took the bloody kitchen knife that had just been cut into meat, stepped forward and grabbed Dobby's arm, and forced him out of the kitchen door.

"We don't need help in the kitchens at Hogwarts from degenerate house elves like you!" he said viciously.

The kitchen door slammed shut.
