Chapter 32 Dumbledore: You still want to fool me

Thinking of this, Dumbledore took a sip of the Coke and asked nervously, "How many gold Galleons do you want?"

Sebastian immediately showed joy on his face: "Let me calculate it for you."

"A whole warehouse of Muggle supplies cost about 20 pounds! At an exchange rate of 1 to 5, that's only about 4 gold Galleons."

"There are also warehouse rental costs, and the students' round-trip fares on the Knight Bus, etc."

As he spoke, he waved his hand and said generously: "I'll give you a small change."

"Just reimburse me 4 gold galleons, and the rest will be my gift to my alma mater!"

Dumbledore suspected that he had not heard clearly, so he scratched his ears and asked again, "How much?"

"4 gold Galleons." Sebastian stretched out his right hand and made the number four.

"How is it? I'm only offering you such a big discount because of your face."

"If it was someone else, like Severus, the price would be exactly what it should be. I have kept the receipts."

what? ! ! !

4 Galleons? ? ? ! ! !

Dumbledore was overwhelmed.

Not to mention 4, even if they take out , the professors will be starving next month.

Now he no longer felt comfortable at all, he just felt like an ant on a hot pan.

After thinking it over, Dumbledore spread his hands and sighed helplessly.

"Sebastian, you know the situation at school. We really can't come up with so many Galleons at once."

"Why don't we think of a way to deal with it?"

coming!

This is what I've been waiting for!

Sebastian suppressed his inner excitement, covered his face with his hands, and acted as if he was in trouble.

"That's 4 gold Galleons. It's not easy to handle."

As he spoke, he rubbed his face vigorously with his hands, as if he had made up his mind.

"How about this, Professor Dumbledore, why don't you teach me some unique magic?"

"What about the Fire God clearing the way, the Water Prison, and yes! And your Transfiguration, as long as it can improve combat effectiveness, teach me."

“These are the most valuable things I can think of.”

"Forty thousand gold galleons will be my tuition fee to you."

"What do you think?"

Hearing these words, Dumbledore immediately understood what was going on.

good boy!

Waiting for you here!

Asking for debts from yourself is false, thinking about your own curse is real.

Dumbledore was very proud.

I have seen through your trick!

Not to mention 40,000 gold galleons.

Even if I offered you 100,000 gold galleons, you wouldn't want it.

But... my own unique magic.

I was reluctant to teach Sebastian before because I didn't know what kind of person he was.

But now it seems that it is not impossible.

In his own eyes, Sebastian is not only young and promising, but also reassuring.

As the richest man in the wizarding world, he has also been targeted by many dark wizards.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to improve combat effectiveness.

It can help me deal with Voldemort in the future.

From this perspective, it wouldn't be a bad idea to teach him my unique magic.

This way, 4 gold galleons were saved directly.

Worth it!

Moreover, this little guy's acting skills are so natural that if I didn't know his background, I would have been fooled by him.

However, it would be meaningless if I agreed to it right away.

Tease him!

See how this guy proceeds!

After figuring out the key, Dumbledore felt relieved. He leaned back in his chair again and said with a smile, "In theory, you should apply in advance before school starts, and you can only be reimbursed after passing the review."

"But the school can't let you suffer any loss."

"How about we pay in installments, for example, reimburse 5,000 gold galleons first, and then pay the rest later."

Finished!

This is not what I expected. Why don’t you play by the rules?

Look carefully at Lao Deng's reaction. He is smiling and leaning back in his chair in a relaxed manner. It seems that he has seen through my plan...

Sebastian immediately wanted to slap himself twice.

What a mess!

And he even turned the tables on me!

If I really take this money, my reputation will be ruined.

Students will only think that Professor Swan seems generous, but he is spending the school's money.

In this way, all my initial investment would be wasted. Not to mention winning people's hearts, I'm afraid no student would believe in me anymore.

Besides, forty thousand gold galleons are nothing!

All I care about is magic!

As long as I can learn Dumbledore's unique skills, it would be no problem to spend another 40,000 gold Galleons.

Hey......

What's the point of playing Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio in front of this thousand-year-old fox?

This is a ruthless person who has schemed against both Dark Lords.

My little cleverness is really not worth mentioning.

Sebastian quickly refused: "Professor Dumbledore, please don't underestimate me."

"I know that the school is not doing well right now, and I will definitely stand by the school through thick and thin."

"I'm not that anxious actually."

"It's not easy," Dumbledore said without pampering him, "but I won't be able to sleep well if the school owes you money."

"The reputation of Hogwarts cannot be ruined in my hands."

"How about this, I'll ask all the professors to come over, and we can brainstorm and come up with a solution together."

"For example, how about having Severus brew some potions, or using the herbs Pomona grows to pay off the debt?"

"In a word, I will never let you suffer any loss. I will pay you back in gold galleons even if I have to sell everything I have."

numb!

Sebastian was completely numb!

Can we still have a pleasant chat?

Why are you using other professors to put pressure on me?

The old guy has no moral principles!

The two bargained for a long time, and finally Sebastian had no choice but to say: "Professor, we all know that Voldemort will come back sooner or later. Therefore, I want to learn from you and enhance my fighting ability."

"Is that so?" Seeing Sebastian speak out his true feelings, Dumbledore became serious. "You have to know that once you learn my spells, you will be completely on my side in the eyes of others."

Sebastian smiled carefreely: "Principal Dumbledore, I am the professor of Muggle Studies at Hogwarts. In the eyes of others, I am already on your side."

"Moreover, once Voldemort returns, he will not let go of Swann's alchemy."

"However, my knees have always been too stiff to get down on the ground and kiss someone's robe!"

"Professor, you see, I don't really have a choice, do I?"

Hearing Sebastian's sincere words, Dumbledore smiled slightly and said, "What about the 40,000 gold Galleons?"

Sebastian's eyes lit up.

This is agreed!

Moreover, the way Dumbledore gave him was so obvious that he would be a fool not to seize the opportunity.

He waved his fist and said generously: "Professor, don't worry!"

"Just consider this little money as my money."

"I will also cover the cost of subsequent courses and will definitely not make it difficult for the school."

Hearing this, Dumbledore smiled his kindest smile of the night.

"Sebastian, let's start with Transfiguration!"
