However, George and Fred did not dare to speak at this time. They could only stand there in silence. Ron stood up and told his eldest brother everything that had happened.

As the eldest son of the Weasley family, Bill has always been very dignified. After hearing Ron's story, he was also very angry and began to teach the two naughty twin brothers a lesson.

"You two guys, not only are you naughty and mischievous, but you actually dare to gamble?" Bill scolded angrily, "Even if it's your own money, this kind of bad habit must never appear in our Weasley family!"

Mrs. Weasley did not stop Bill from scolding him. Although she had remained silent about George and Fred's gambling, they won in the end after all.

Who could have thought that they would be deceived? Seeing the two youngest sons so depressed, she really couldn't bear to blame them anymore.

George and Fred can be said to have grown up under the watchful eyes of their elder brother Bill. Maybe they sometimes quarreled with their third brother Percy, or made some jokes with their second brother Charlie Weasley, but in front of their eldest brother, they never dared to have any rebellious thoughts.

Luo Lin looked at Bill who was still scolding. He knew that Bill had high expectations for George and Fred, but they had indeed made a big mistake this time. At this moment, the atmosphere in the tent was extremely solemn, as if time had stopped.

Ron shrank his neck tightly, not daring to make a sound, fearing that his brother's anger would affect him. Harry and Hermione were also too nervous to speak, and just watched everything silently.

"Okay Bill, I think George and Fred know their mistakes now! How about our crystal ball? Did it bring in sales?" Rowling suddenly spoke up to break the dull atmosphere. His voice was a little teasing, as if he was trying to ease the situation.

After hearing what Luo Lin said, Bill, who was originally angry, finally showed a smile on his face. It was an expression mixed with joy and excitement. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then said:

"Although it was expected, it was still surprising! As soon as I arrived at the Ministry of Magic's Sports Enforcement Department, the Ministries of Magic of various countries approached me and expressed their intention to purchase! When I explained in detail all the functions of the product, the orders came in like a tide, and the supply simply couldn't meet the demand!

All the 10,000 crystal balls we prepared have been sold out! But each country only got a few hundred, and some Ministries of Magic didn't even get one! "Speaking of this, Bill rubbed his hands excitedly, his eyes sparkling.

I came back to discuss something with you. The magic ministries of the major countries are willing to buy out the property rights of their own countries! In the future, they will develop and improve it themselves! After their discussion, they decided that 15 countries currently want to buy out the technology, and each country is willing to pay 20 gold galleons! What do you think?"

Harry Ron, who was standing next to him, was very surprised to hear such a price, and George Fred was no longer like a deflated ball! They all perked up, and they were really indestructible!

After a brief thought, Luo Lin made a decision. He could do this deal! After all, the area involved was too wide, so he decided to buy it out in one go! "Of course! I think this deal can be done."

Bill was also very happy to hear Rowling's affirmative answer. After all, this was a multi-million dollar business! "Then Rowling, let's go to the stadium together now. They are still waiting for our answer there!"

Luo Lin nodded, knowing that this matter needed to be dealt with as soon as possible. So, the group stood up and prepared to go to the stadium. He also understood that once this technology was bought out, it would mean that more benefits might be lost in the future. However, facing such attractive conditions, Luo Lin had to consider it carefully. And he didn't have that much energy!

After arriving at the competition venue, representatives from various countries had been waiting for a long time. When they saw Rowling and others coming, they showed expectations on their faces. Rowling walked forward and shook hands with representatives from the Ministry of Magic of each country one by one, expressing his gratitude for their recognition of his invention. Then, he announced that he accepted the buyout requests from various countries and said that he would complete the relevant procedures as soon as possible.

After hearing this, the magic ministries of various countries expressed their satisfaction. They congratulated Rowling and promised to fully support the development of this technology. Afterwards, the two sides began to discuss the specific details of the cooperation, including the contract, technology transfer method, etc. Rowling and Bill participated in the discussion together to ensure that the rights and interests of all parties were fully protected.

The entire negotiation process lasted for several hours, and finally an agreement was reached that satisfied all parties. Rowling signed the contract with representatives of various countries, formally confirming the buyout transaction. As the agreement was signed, warm applause rang out on the scene. Representatives from various countries congratulated Rowling and praised his invention for bringing great changes to the magic world.

Rowling responded with a smile: "Thank you very much for your trust and support. I hope this technology can help everyone and make the magical world a better place." Amidst laughter, Rowling took photos with representatives from various countries to record this unforgettable moment.

This buyout not only brought huge wealth to the Weasley family, but also made Rowling's invention widely used around the world. As time goes by, Rowling's name will gradually become a legend in the wizarding world, and his achievements will be remembered forever.

The contract clearly stated that the money would be remitted to Gringotts' account within seven days! However, the Ministry of Magic originally planned to let everyone enjoy a sumptuous dinner together, but Rowling politely declined.

The reason is simple, the sun is setting and night is about to fall, which means the Death Eaters may take action soon!

After saying goodbye, Luo Lin and Bill returned to the tent together. As soon as they entered the tent, Bill handed Luo Lin the traceless stretch bag. The bag contained a full 500,000 gold galleons, which was the proceeds from the sale of 10,000 crystal balls!

Although half a million sounds like a lot, this is a cost shared by the magic departments of dozens of countries around the world, and in reality the share borne by each country is not that high.

Rowling shook the bag in his hand gently. Then, he took out 95,000 gold galleons without hesitation. George and Fred winked at Rowling, but Rowling handed it to them resolutely. As expected, Mrs. Weasley's face was filled with joy. She quickly took the money and put it away properly.

"Oh, how could you do this, Mom?" George and Fred protested in unison. Their faces showed mixed expressions, feeling helpless and dissatisfied with their mother's behavior.

Mrs. Weasley seemed to realize that her actions were inappropriate, so she quickly pulled a bulging wallet from her pocket, counted out five thousand gold Galleons, and handed them to George and Fred.

Although George and Fred were full of reluctance, they had to accept the money facing their mother's firm gaze.

Then, Rowling took out 10,000 gold Galleons and handed them to Bill. Bill opened his mouth in surprise. He had never expected that he would get a copy. After all, he was just an employee working for Rowling, unlike George and Fred who were shareholders.

Therefore, he quickly declined, saying, "I can't accept it, Luo Lin, this is my job!"

Rowling explained with a smile: "George and Fred were originally supposed to get 100,000 gold Galleons, and these 10,000 gold Galleons are the shares agreed upon in advance by our three shareholders. Please be sure to accept them." After saying that, he stuffed the gold Galleons into Bill's hands.

George and Fred nodded, agreeing with Rowling's statement.

Seeing that Rowling was so sincere and didn't seem to be joking, Bill finally stopped refusing. But he still gratefully accepted the gold galleons and expressed his deep gratitude to Rowling. [Who knows, my family has given me so much!!!]
