Chapter 355 Persuasion

After eating two snacks, Mrs. Weasley finally spoke about the main purpose of her visit today.

Lane, I know that with your help, the two of them have improved their academic performance a lot. But I hope their grades can be higher so that they can enter the Ministry of Magic in the future. It's not just me, Arthur thinks so too. Yes. And if you open a store, it's too distracting for the two of them.

Well, Mrs. Weasley. Ryan thought for a moment after listening to what Mrs. Weasley said, then nodded and said to her seriously. I can understand your expectations for the two of them. As a parent, you definitely want your children to have a better life in the future. But with all due respect, you'd better ask your two sons what they think. Not everyone is suitable for magic. Department work.

But Arthur, and Percy, Mrs. Weasley was interrupted by the twins before she could finish. Mum, we're not like Daddy and Percy, working at the Ministry from morning to night would really suffocate us, and maybe get into a lot of trouble, and the salary earned every month has not been fined in the end. many.

It's true, Mrs Weasley. Ryan said, looking at Mrs Weasley. Both of them are older than me and are almost adults. So they should have their own mature ideas. In this case, it is not a good thing to force them to do things they don't like, and to take up occupations they don't like.

After Ryan said this, he saw the twins nodding forcefully, with a look of strong approval on his face.

Mrs Weasley may not have been very firm on the twins in this regard, so she let go of that and started to say another concern of hers. But they're just making stuff for kids. It's okay to go to school now, how can they support themselves after graduation?

It seems that parents all over the world are similar, especially when their children are engaged in some emerging industries or special industries, they always feel that a stable job is not as good for their children's future.

You don't need to worry about this, Mrs. Weasley. Ryan analyzed carefully. Fred and George are very talented in inventing new magic toys and even magic items, and even they have mastered introductory alchemy in a very short period of time. The prospect of opening a magic item store is very bright in this case.

After hearing this, Mrs. Weasley's expression softened. Ryan quickly struck while the iron was hot, For example, there is a shop in Hogsmeade called Zuko Joke Shop. Because the owner of the shop, Zuko, is already old, the contents in it have not been updated much in the past ten years. Even so The daily income of this shop is probably equivalent to a month's salary of an ordinary Ministry of Magic clerk. I think with the newly developed things of Fred and George and some of my works, it is more than the Joko jokes It's not a very difficult thing to shop.

Say more. Ryan spread his hands. As a Muggle-born wizard, I am willing to invest most of my wealth in the wizarding world in them. As their mother, please give them more trust.

Have you really made up your mind? Have you really decided to open a magic products store as your goal in life? After listening to Ryan's persuasion, Mrs. Weasley looked at the twins seriously and asked. It's hard for your family to help you in this regard. So are you prepared to face the difficulties and challenges alone?

Yes, Mom. We have already thought about it. The twins looked at each other at this time, and then said in unison. When they said this, the faces of the two showed unprecedented seriousness and determination.

Very well, remember your choice today.

As a mother I wish you all the best and my dad and Percy will be there when the store opens this weekend.

After a cup of tea, Mrs Weasley and the twins left. Lane could see the Weasley twins smiling happily until the Apparition left.

It was the weekend, the day before going to Sirius' ancestral home. After packing up early in the morning, Ryan and Hermione went to Diagon Alley for the opening ceremony of the Weasley Joke Shop.

If it weren't for the disgusting blood concept of some wizards, your name should also be on the door of the shop. Hermione said while watching the shop that started to set off fireworks.

In business, as long as you make money. Fame or something is not that important, Ryan replied. Okay, let's go in and have a look. Although I am a major shareholder and helped a lot for the opening, I have never seen all the products in the store.

The store looks redecorated and looks much brighter than it used to be when it was a warehouse, maybe even a little too bright. The wall on the first floor was replaced with a large area of ​​display windows. The left window was colorful and displayed a variety of goods that rotated, twitched, flickered, jumped and screamed, while the right window contained some more serious products. commodity. Ryan saw that the brass bracelet he had made earlier was placed on top of the pile of merchandise in the window on the right.

Ryan, welcome to Hermione. A large crowd poured in because the store had just opened. So Lane and the others squeezed to the very innermost part of the store to see the busy twins and the Weasleys.

The two of them were called over by the store clerk before they could chat for a while. Lane and the others could only check various products in the store by themselves. On the first floor are mainly all kinds of joke products, such as snacks and candies with various spoof effects, as well as wands and quills that can be used to trick people. There are even disposable runestones made by the twins after learning the basics of alchemy, each of which can make people daydream perfectly for half an hour.

Really, genius. Ryan took a glance and knew what it was. Before, Ryan and the twins restored the layout of an ancient illusion defense array found in the library. Ryan himself used this knowledge to make a set of A phantom array that is quickly deployed as a fixed location defense. Unexpectedly, the twins simplified the above knowledge and used it for this. It can only be said that the two of them are indeed talented in mischief.

The second floor is where magic items such as Defense Against the Dark Arts are sold. Unlike the downstairs, there are mainly some adults here, and it is not as noisy as the downstairs.

Hey. Ryan, Hermione. George greeted them as they went upstairs.

Thanks to you, the market for these magic items is very good now. George called a clerk to replace him and walked over to Ryan and said. While the guys at the Ministry of Magic have been bragging about how safe it is now, at least the escape of those ten Death Eaters has left a lot of people looking for something to protect them, and we can provide that.

So have you registered real-name products for some of the more important products? Ryan asked what he was concerned about.

That's necessary. We don't want our goods to be used by those Death Eaters against our relatives and friends. Even if we do so, we will lose some business. Speaking of which, George picked up a few pieces that looked like coal from the shelf. s things. For example, this kind of stealth smoke bombs that must be dispelled with matching spells, and your defense bracelets, which are very useful in actual combat, we all require customers to purchase with their real names. Of course, such as decoy bombs that divert people's attention or Clothing that can only protect against some small curses is unnecessary.

By the way, there is an opening gift for you. Ryan took out a wooden box from under the wizard's robe and handed it over. After George took it, he opened the box and found a pair of headbands that seemed to be made of patterned steel. He looked at Ryan in confusion.

I made this with magic metal. On the one hand, as a defensive item, this headband can resist ten stun spells in a week. On the other hand, this headband can let people enter the mechanized mind for half an hour every three days. Under these circumstances, the user can make various judgments without any emotional influence, which is very useful in battle, and can even save a life.”

It's too expensive, and I can't accept it. As far as I know, some so-called pure-blood family heirlooms with a relatively short history may not have this level. George was a little surprised after hearing Ryan's introduction.

It's okay, after all, I am the main investor in this store. Under the current circumstances, I think I can only protect my interests if you guarantee safety.

In the end, Ryan convinced the twins to accept the gift on the grounds of protecting his own interests, and then left the store.
