HP Approaches the Magical World
Chapter 54
After pretending to be innocent and making a phone call on the sofa, Jon's face was a little stiff, and Mr. Smith finally got the matter over the phone.
On the other side of the phone, Howard and Love who answered the phone were also old acquaintances. The two chatted back and forth for a while before getting to the point. After talking for a while, he was also surprised by Love's request.
In fact, it is normal for a "successful person" like Love to have financial ideas.
It's just that at their level, they generally don't need to use headhunting companies to find talents who manage property. Any reliable financial management company in the market can give a rate of return that meets their expectations.
And the request that Love told him was also very strange.
What is a "financial talent who is calm and adaptable, and who completely obeys the boss's opinion"?
Does such a "talent" need to be found through a headhunting company?
Doubts are doubts, but Howard also has to admit that Love's price is very good.
Their company helps customers and talents sign contracts, and the commission is very generous. The intention that Love is describing now is completely the simplest small case, and any talented student under his staff can do it.
However, since it's an old friend's request, it's better to take it easy and find a suitable person.
He flipped through his database and began to find a suitable choice from it.
...
"So, can you tell me the reason now? What are you going to do with so much money?"
Love straightened his son's collar, then pinched Jon's face, and asked very seriously.
He likes to raise his son, but it doesn't mean he doesn't care about anything.
Especially his son's behavior has become more and more weird, even the most serious father has to ask a few more questions.
Jon had been prepared for a long time, he just sat here pretending to be well-behaved just to start the draft.
Now, it's time to show off your acting skills.
The first is to start with a harmless little lie.
"Actually, I'm doing it to make money."
Jon shook the corners of his eyes slightly to relax the muscles around his eyes - this was thanks to Ravenclaw's monocle, which greatly exercised Jon's control over the magic power in the eyes.
Human expression is determined by the facial muscles, and as the windows of the soul, the emotions expressed by the eyes are often the most direct to the heart. This is because the muscles around the eyes are the most difficult to control, but they are used well. The most useful weapon.
Few people in the wizarding world pay attention to such details, and everyone lives their lives relatively directly, and they don't need such little tricks when something really happens—the dementors don't care what micro-expressions you make.
These are what Jon learned when he read and studied micro-expressions outside of class. It is generally difficult for ordinary people to fully control their muscles. Of course, Jon can't do it now, but after so long of training, he has already You can simply adjust the state of your muscles.
For example, now, the contours of his eyes are slightly rounder, and the sharpness has been reduced, and a little water is oozing from the tear ducts, and the clear pupils look extremely sincere.
"Some things actually involve the big secrets of the wizarding world. I didn't want to tell you..."
Jon looked at Mr. Smith's face with an expression of incomparable resistance and firmness, as if you can't tell me that I won't listen, but he closed the office door and locked it honestly, knowing his plan It worked.
"In fact, as early as when I was in school, I heard rumors about the magic world from other students, and they all said... that person is back."
Jon made up a source of news, but what he said was true.
It's already January, and Harry Potter will start school in September,
Isn't that person just back?
Mr. Smith has learned a lot about things in the wizarding world, and such a big event can be figured out with a little guesswork.
But his data update is obviously a bit outdated, and the first person who guessed it turned out to be Grindelwald.
"No, another one?"
"V...?"
Love almost said the name, but fortunately, the rigor he had cultivated over the years stopped him in time.
"should be."
"Even if that's the case, what does it have to do with your financial management?"
Jon quickly got to the point: "This is what I want to say. This time, it's not just the dark wizards in Britain who are acting, but the dark wizards in Europe seem to have been agitated. When I was in school, I also indirectly fought with dark wizards." It's too late."
If that counts when he doesn't succeed in buying live unicorn fur because it's too expensive.
"black……?"
Love took a sharp breath, and Jon said it easily, but he knew how dangerous a dark wizard was to a student like Jon.
"How did you... meet those... people?"
"It's not a coincidence, it's indirect, Dad, don't be so nervous, I was..."
Jon didn't expect to have to explain this question, and it took a long time to bring the topic back.
Wait a minute, where did you just say that?
Jon, who was interrupted by Love and forgot his words, simply went directly to the next stage.
"All in all, the current situation is very dangerous. The dark wizards in the American magic world have gradually grown in power in recent years, but the most powerful legendary wizard is still Dumbledore. As long as he is still firmly in the headmaster's office at Hogwarts Then, those dark wizards will not dare to enter the British territory easily."
"You mean, they want to fish in troubled waters?"
"Almost, maybe I want to take advantage of the chaos to make some money."
"Dark wizards...shouldn't care much about ordinary people's money, right? They don't need to spend this."
Jon shook his head: "The capital of the Muggle world is also capital. The mysterious man doesn't look down on the Muggle world. It doesn't mean that all his subordinates are like this. The people in Germany seem to vote for him now, but it's also because of Grinder Wo didn't intend to come out of Nurmengard. Compared with the so-called loyalty, those dark wizards naturally have more plans for their own interests; there is nothing to count on in the Americas, those guys have always been sitting on the hills and watching the tigers fight, The style of doing things while taking advantage of the chaos to make money, so this war in the wizarding world may not be fought, but if the Muggle world fights an economic war, the possibility is still very high."
"Once there is a real fight, one party must lose to end."
Love nodded: "Which side do you think will win?"
Jon spread his hands, indicating that his position was obvious.
Although he is an Englishman now, he doesn't have any pressure in his heart to make money from Britain's national difficulties.
One is that it is only the result of economic regression in the end, which is not unacceptable, and the other is that he can't do much by himself, so it's better to take the assets that can be used now and exchange some future capital.
Anyway, it’s all about making money in the end, so let’s share it!
