No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

There are actually a lot of treasures in the house. For example, all the books, except for the banned books, have been sent to the Hogwarts library. Then sort them out. Pick out the duplicates, and ask someone to copy down the notes in the book. Of course, check if there is a name on the book. If it is a famous alumnus, you can write a letter and ask them to come back to claim it. You have come to claim it, how can you not come back empty-handed? Can you donate some books or other things to the school so that the school can remember you? Otherwise, do you deserve to be called a famous alumnus?
As for the furniture, they used an old classroom as a workshop, and asked the students who were interested to take a piece of furniture, and the teachers who were good at repairing furniture led everyone to repair it. The repaired furniture was put in the second-hand shop in Hogsmeade Village.

The wizards are not rich. Even the middle class don't have much money in their vaults. Real things are used for a lifetime. Many people don't have the budget to buy new ones, so second-hand items are very popular in the wizarding world. Those furniture, some magic cabinets with simple functions, not made by famous masters, can be passed down from generation to generation. The price is not expensive, so they are very popular. The supply is simply in short supply!
After paying students’ pocket money, the remaining income will be managed by the Student Union, and of course, there will be teachers to supervise it, as a fund for campus improvement plans.

Of course, in addition to this, there are other things that can be sold, such as those with obvious family emblems. We will collect them and not repair them. We will notify each family and ask them to come and claim them.

This is easy to win everyone's favor. Most of these families with emblems are rich now. Take back these not very valuable but interesting gadgets of the family. The point is that those gadgets may be important heirlooms in the family. This is also the reason why Ou Mengmeng did not allow the restoration.

Including their metal products, as long as there is a family emblem, put it aside, this is their heritage. Don't touch it!

So, this time, we gained a great deal of favorability, and in this way, Hogwarts also gained a lot of favorability.

Many of these families were school directors, and they knew that they were raising money for the school's dilapidated public facilities. So, these wealthy people simply allocated a sum of money.

This was what Ou Mengmeng had expected. Otherwise, she wouldn't have specially invited people back and put the rags in corresponding boxes. There were also family crests on the boxes.

Ou Mengmeng will tell the owners who come to claim the property how they found it and why they are looking for it. She revealed that the school facilities are old and she doesn’t want to cause trouble for the board of directors…

After getting the grant, even Professor McGonagall thought this kid was smart, right? Ou Mengmeng just waved her hand. Alas, finding sponsorship is also a compulsory course for the principal. Which school principal doesn't think about how to find some money the first thing when he opens his eyes every day? She is a public school, so she still has to ask for money from the higher-ups. How to ask for it? This is an art, and she has already mastered it.

The money from selling second-hand books, second-hand furniture, and second-hand items was used to pay for the purchase of brooms for the school's flying broom class, and to update the owls in the public owl shed.

For example, public owls can help people send letters, but owls are of varying quality. People have to choose carefully when sending letters, because some are very old. However, they don't have the money to replace them with new ones. After all, they are for public use, and there are not many good ones. So the role of this owl shed is actually limited.

Broomsticks and owls cannot be repaired, they can only be bought. And there are more things that Hogwarts needs to improve. For example, the janitor was only Mr. Fitch before, and a key manager was barely added. The house-elf system and Mr. Fitch's system are not the same. In Ou Mengmeng's opinion, it is really full of bugs. There is only one janitor for a school of 1,000 people. Even if she is Mr. Fitch, she will be crazy.

For example, they can get a share of the money from repairing wood, which can be sold for money. But there are more than one job, such as the student bathroom, the prefect bathroom, the countless abandoned classrooms on campus, and the corridors that have become swamps. The school said there is no money for these repairs.

But Ou Mengmeng came from the Red Mansion. What does it mean that she won't do it if she doesn't have money? Think about how Jia Zhen trained his students when he was running the garden. There are so many students in your school. Graduation means unemployment. Why don't you think about developing livelihood skills in school first?
Therefore, Ou Mengmeng suggested that in addition to various types of restoration teams, there should also be maintenance teams. Unless they are particularly professional, let the students form their own teams, give them a budget, and let them take on the work. Whether they can make money or not depends on their ability. The key is creativity. Whoever has the best creativity, whoever is the best organization, and whoever uses magic the best.

This school year, students of all grades have been greatly trained. Moreover, when forming a team, they are required to bring at least two lower grade students. In this way, every student has the opportunity to get extracurricular training and earn some pocket money.

No matter which school, ordinary people always make up the majority. Ou Mengmeng is particularly concerned about the fact that more skills are better than less. So she also cares about the students' skill training and more exposure to practical work. In her opinion, the magic world is actually too closed and too well protected. Everything depends on graduation, and then relying on oneself to explore?

So why are there so many successful people in Slyklin, and why do they say that if you want to make friends, go to Slyklin? In fact, it is because their families have more resources. Then they find out everyone's strengths early and combine the strengths, instead of just fooling around like ordinary families.

So the whole campus was mobilized, and everyone did their best. Even the potion group and the herb planting group did their best. In the medical wing, there was also an interest group to learn nursing with Mrs. Pompey. The school's potions were not bought in bulk, and an independent accounting system was started. We couldn't let the potion teacher and the plant teacher work for nothing. We couldn't let Mrs. Pompey die of exhaustion alone.

In this way, except for the cafeteria that Dumbledore did not change, other places have strict systems. Children can't take medicine randomly to skip classes, and then go to the hospital wing for free sick leave. Because there are interns in the hospital wing in every class, if there are small problems, some small spells can solve them, so they don't need to take up medical resources. These children also know that because of these rules and regulations, they have new flying brooms, new tables and chairs, more toilets, and the floors that make noises when stepped on have been repaired and painted. Even the moving oil paintings have been cleaned and repainted. The Fat Lady also hinted that they should make her thinner...

Now Professor Snape has more time to study his advanced magic and potions. And Professor Sprout, the Herbology professor, finally has a group of helpers to grow various interesting plants in his own experimental field. In addition to the ones given to the medical wing, the rest is given to the school, and the other half is used for experiments and training his own disciples.

While waiting for Dumbledore to return at the end of the school year, he had not had time to wash off his fatigue when he suddenly discovered that Hogwarts seemed a little different. He couldn't tell what was different, but it was obvious that the students seemed very busy.

Even Mr. Fitch has a team of people around him, campus volunteers! Each class takes turns on duty. Responsibilities are assigned to people, and whoever has a problem is responsible. Of course, Mr. Fitch also seems to be in a much better mental state. He is not so dry anymore! (End of this chapter)
