a certain scientific harry potter

Hmm... Now it seems that the benefits of confessing the relationship between him and Hermione to his adoptive parents are naturally obvious.
At least the Grangers had chosen to turn a blind eye to the fact that he and Hermione occasionally slept together.
Of course, they also knew that even if they wanted to stop them, they couldn't stop them.
In two months, the Grangers will be leaving England. How can they remotely monitor the sleeping positions of the two children every day?
So they even thought it was good, at least they knew the degree of relationship between Harry and Hermione before they left, and they also confirmed Harry's inner sense of proportion, after all, they didn't have to worry about it secretly.
And sometimes, the Grangers still feel that Harry is a little bit hard, after all, they are people who have been there, and they can see what they can eat... I understand everything~
But, Harry wasn't particularly anxious about it.
The relationship between him and Hermione has already developed to this level, and there is no possibility of any changes in the future, so what are you doing so fast?
Harry didn't think it was necessary. At an age where both parties were immature, especially if they were breaking the law, he insisted on forcing Hermione to go with him to find excitement.
It is not only a kind of responsibility, but also a kind of romance to save the most intense impulse for the most suitable time.
But...Harry must also say that Hermione is really getting more and more attractive the longer she grows.
Her facial features and figure have gradually grown, and her long hair is no longer messy, but is draped on the quilt smoothly like a waterfall; her small mouth is slightly open when she is asleep, and the two front teeth that have been corrected are now just right , the long eyelashes on both eyes are trembling slightly... Wait!
So, this girl is actually awake?
Realizing that the other party was pretending to be sleeping with him, Harry couldn't help but smirked and leaned over, giving Hermione a long good morning kiss.
"I hate it, I'm going to be out of breath...uh~"
The girl gently pushed Harry's chest with both hands, complaining indistinctly, but this provided someone with an opportunity to push forward, directly taking the breathless deep kiss just now to a deeper level. Upgraded a lot.
"Wake up, I still have business to do today~"
After playing around for a while, someone who was refreshed cut his serious face before the girl got angry, and then fled out of bed in a flash.
"hate~"
The girl with disheveled hair and panting slightly glared at the guy who made trouble just now, but after remembering today's 'business', she hurriedly started looking for clothes in a panic.
In other words, this kind of scenery is really a blessing for the eyes.
After washing up, the two went downstairs to the living room together. Mrs. Granger was preparing breakfast with Dobby, while Mr. Granger was sitting on the sofa, sipping black tea and reading the newspaper in his hand.
The portraits on the newspaper occasionally showed various expressions. It was obvious that Mr. Granger was reading a copy of the "Daily Prophet".
This was actually Harry's idea. Although the Grangers were about to leave England, the wizards there would take care of them in the Celestial Dynasty, so it was definitely right to learn a little bit about the magic world from now on.
However, seeing Mr. Granger's expression, Harry knew that there should be no good news in the newspaper today.
"Hey, are our ball games in England really so decadent?"
Mr. Granger sighed and spread the newspaper on the coffee table. His heartbroken aura even affected the smell of the steaming black tea beside him.
"So that's it. The Quidditch World Cup has already started." Harry took the opportunity to glance up and found that the headline of the "Daily Prophet" today was about the disastrous defeat of the British team.
Because of the need to consider injuries, game duration and other conditions in Quidditch games, the overall schedule is often relatively long. In order to determine the top 16 group stage, it took two full years before it was completely over.
The finals for the top 16 will last for a few months. That is to say, when Hogwarts begins its summer vacation, the 422nd Quidditch World Cup 16-to-8 competition has already kicked off. .
The first opener was held between England and Transylvania. As a result, England, the host team, was successfully defeated by a small Eastern European regional team with a score of 390:10...
That said, the Transylvanian Chasers combined to fire 24 shots at England before catching the Snitch.
In other words, this is no longer a matter of a simple fiasco, it is simply a rhythm of lying flat and not resisting, letting the opponent take turns to fire.
England has always had a lot of fans, whether wizards or ordinary people, so even though Mr. Granger has just started to pay attention to Quidditch, he still hopes that the England team can achieve good results in this kind of international competition.
It didn't work out, but he read the bad news about his country's team losing so badly that his head was almost shaved in the newspaper...
And the bad news is double.
Because in a few days in the middle and late June, this year's Football World Cup will also be held in Millikin, and the England team...
hehe~
The Three Lions have always had a tradition of being divided into the death group in various football cups. The World Cup in 94 was no exception. They were directly swept away by the Netherlands, Norway and other teams in the qualifiers, and they even went to Millikin. Air tickets are saved.
It is conceivable that Mr. Granger's depression in football has not yet been resolved, but the Quidditch game has added another depression to him at home, which should be even worse.
Unfortunately, there was nothing Harry could do to help Mr. Granger calm down. After all, England's Quidditch team had been weakened for hundreds of years, and even the Ministry of Magic had let it go.
Fred and George Weasley once secretly told Harry that the Pig Association of the British wizarding community... er, they refer to the Department of Sports and Sports of the Ministry of Magic. The director of this class, Ludo Bagman, is a An abusive gambler who is so greedy for money that he would even bet on his country to lose.
However, because he was a world-class batsman for the Wimbourne Hornets when he was young, many Quidditch fanatics have a heavy filter on him, so he can safely retain his position until now.
It is conceivable that under his "wise" leadership, the Sports Department, which was already tending to be a decoration, has now become almost fragmented in success.
And Harry also knew that the Weasley brothers' money at the Quidditch World Cup was this Ludo Bagman.
Hmm...Harry sincerely hopes that their wishes will come true~
Chapter 3000 Decoration acceptance, appointment of building chief ([-]+)
After breakfast, Harry and Hermione rushed to Diagon Alley, ready to start dealing with today's 'business'
Their destination was the three-storey shop that Harry bought before. It was located in the center of Diagon Alley, far away from Gringotts, and the geographical conditions were absolutely superior.
By the time they arrived, the others had already arrived one after another.
Xenophilius was the first to come here. Luna didn't accompany him, presumably he was still recuperating; then there was the copy editor 'Beetle' who normally came to work at the magazine, that is, Rita Skeeter.
Then there are three Weasleys with different personalities, Fred, George and Percy, and Percy is accompanied by his girlfriend who has been fully disclosed, Penelope Clearwater.
Until the end, Sirius rushed over with Lupine, a good friend...and a Tonks who came to join in the fun.
"Okay, that's all, let's start the decoration inspection."
That's right, the reason why Harry called a large group of people to Diagon Alley today was to conduct a comprehensive decoration inspection of the store that was about to open.
At the same time, he also took advantage of this opportunity to make appointments for the store's personnel in advance, so as to avoid functional confusion when it officially opened.
But... Lupine and Tonks were pure accidents, and Harry actually only informed Sirius himself today.
"The overall feeling seems to be quite good. Basically, there is no problem. As long as the stock is sufficient, it should be officially open soon."
Walking in the empty shop, Harry and the others carefully inspected the walls, floors, partitions and other decorations, as well as the pre-customized containers. After summarizing the inspection results of everyone, Harry was quite satisfied. nod.
The decoration will definitely have some small flaws, but the magic decoration company on Diagon Alley is quite reliable, and the overall quality of the project is quite good.
"Fred, George, I'll take care of the store on the first floor. I think half of the space can be used to display the trick products you invented; as for the other half, I want to put some wizards Commonly used, but unseen, basic magic items."
After roughly walking around, Harry handed over the first floor of the shop to the Weasley brothers.
Putting some fast-moving products and joke products on the first floor should be easier to attract ordinary wizards into the store, and the joyful personality of the Weasley brothers is also easy to retain customers, so they are the most suitable for the first floor. The building is long.
"It's great! Harry, just look at it!", "The two of us have made a lot of fun things during this semester!"
Originally, Harry only promised to give the two brothers a special counter, but now they have directly approved half a floor of space, and let them manage the entire floor. Fred and George are naturally extremely excited at the moment, patted their chests and promised Fill the shelves they are responsible for as quickly as possible.
As for the 'basic magic item', Harry didn't say what it was, so they didn't ask much.
In fact, the so-called basic magic items are nothing more than applying some magic to items produced by ordinary people, such as the most intuitive, foldable and automatic stirring graphite crucible.
Harry's approach is actually a proper violation of the Misuse of Muggle Items Act, but with Harry's proficiency in the law, he can easily find loopholes in these laws.
Wizards are prohibited from casting magic on and using Muggle items, but there is actually a key prerequisite for this law to take effect... that is, how to define, what is a 'Muggle item'?
Some wizard took an ordinary broom, cast a flying spell on it, and turned it into a simplified version of the broomstick, and he broke the law?
Things are not that simple.
What if the broom was made by the wizard himself?
So the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office - yes, the department where Arthur Weasley used to be, rarely, if ever, actually found wizards who 'misused' Muggle items.
What's more, this department itself is not right. Harry knows that Arthur Weasley has a secretly enchanted Ford Anglia car. In order to be able to play with this car freely, he is drafting magic artifacts When it came to the ownership bill, it even secretly left a loophole in it.
So, the people at the Ministry of Magic couldn't come up with conclusive evidence at all to conclude that the graphite crucible and some other products sold by Harry were originally 'Muggle items'.
Do they have an invoice, do they have a credit card?
There is nothing, so why couldn't these things be made by Harry himself?
"Hmph! It's because you care too much about these messy things that you can't get the OWLs results that satisfy your mother in the end!"
While Harry was complacent about taking advantage of the law, Percy suddenly quarreled with the twins.
He seemed very displeased with the twins' disrespectful attitude, so he couldn't help but sneer at the side for a while, but fortunately his girlfriend grabbed his sleeve in time, which prevented Percy from continuing to say even worse things.
"Hey, OWLs grades don't mean everything! Besides, what if you got 12 O's, why don't you come here to work for Harry now?"
"That's right, even my father has already returned to the Ministry of Magic and was promoted. I thought you would rush to become a bureaucrat, but I didn't expect you to stay here~"
"I'm... because I promised Granger to work for him before, so I don't want to break the contract. What's more... In short, I have decided not to work for the Ministry of Magic."
There was obvious hesitation when Percy said these words, and at the same time he unconsciously looked at his girlfriend.
To be honest, of course he still wanted to work in the Ministry of Magic in his heart, but some things were indeed agreed by Harry.
Because Penello clearly told him when he graduated that if he went to the Ministry of Magic, the two of them would have to fail completely.
Of course, he didn't make such a decision entirely for love. Although Percy was a bit eager for quick success, he was definitely not a fool.
Although he always felt that his father was very unmotivated and even disgraced the Weasley family, when the Ministry of Magic gave Arthur Weasley a job that could be called a high-ranking official, Percy But it didn't look very optimistic.
After all... even someone like my own father can be reused suddenly, there must be an insider behind it.
"So I'm actually very curious," Harry asked Penello half-jokingly after seeing the secret interaction between the top student couple, "Senior Crivatt, what are your considerations, Why do you want to come and work in my newly opened shop?"
"I can't help it. The job in the Ministry of Magic is really not suitable for me, and I don't have a NEWTs certificate at hand, and it's hard to find other positions. After thinking about it, I might as well come to you and give it a try." Penello also smiled and gave He explained, "You can actually get three Weasleys to work for you at the same time. The future development prospects of this shop must be very good."
"Senior Clearwater, it's an honor to hear you say that." Harry immediately put on a smile, "It just so happens that I have a position that is very suitable for you."
He led everyone up to the second floor, and after checking the details of the decoration on this floor, Harry turned back and said to Penello, "I'm going to leave this floor to you to take care of."
"Am I... in charge of the entire floor?" Penello froze for a moment, "Harry, what exactly are you going to sell here?"
"All kinds of high-quality potions and materials, as well as some special alchemy utensils. Simply put, the second floor is a boutique area different from the first floor." Harry explained with a smile on his face, "In short, the second floor , what we sell are those good things that are extremely difficult to find. Let me give you an example, the venom of the acromantia, in the whole of England, only here can provide a stable supply."
"Of course, your job is not just as simple as a teller. I also need you to undertake some private orders for alchemy items and potions. When receiving orders, you need to evaluate as accurately as possible whether we can make them or not. , and if it can be made, how long it will take to get the finished product."
Harry's purpose is to build a highly competitive store, so in addition to fast-moving products, high-end boutiques are also essential.
As far as Harry knew, the female student council president in front of him had studied the three advanced NEWTs courses of Transformation, Charms and Potions in the seventh grade at the same time. Harry didn't believe that she would fail the exam in the end.
Therefore, she can definitely be the head of the second floor.
Everyone finally went up to the third floor. One of the areas here has been occupied by the magazine "The Quibbler". After arriving here, Xenophilius, Rita, and Percy also devoted themselves to their work, while Harry He brought others to a separate office on the third floor.
"This is the last place, the store manager's office of the whole store." Harry turned around and introduced to everyone, "In addition to controlling the store's operations, counting some orders, reports and other tasks, the store manager can also take some other tasks. Commissions, such as cases that can be transferred to the Werewolf Detective Agency for investigation. So the candidate for the store manager..."
Harry turned his head to look at Sirius, the meaning was self-evident, he needed his godfather to help him work.
However, Sirius shook his head and refused.
"Harry, your store is really interesting, but with my personality, I can't manage it well, so I recommend Moon Face to be the store manager, which is why I brought him here today." Sirius pointed to the side Lupine, "He has decided to resign from Hogwarts, and he has nowhere to go. Why don't you just give him a job?"
"Resign?" Harry couldn't help being stunned for a moment, "It's all right, Uncle Lupine, why are you resigning?"
"I don't know when my current body will recover my magic power, so I can't continue to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, so I simply resign." Lupine sighed softly, "What's more, even if you solve my body Problem, if I stay in school, it may still cause trouble."
"Is that so... that's fine too, you are the head of the third floor~"
(ps The short 1000 words made up yesterday~)
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
In other words, the reason why Harry agreed to Lupine's proposal to be the store manager without even thinking about it was because he was indeed a very suitable candidate.
When it comes to being calm, down-to-earth, and meticulous, Sirius is no match for Lupine.
Harry has his own pace in the development of this store, so the so-called store manager is actually the butler who assists him in the overall management of the store.
Therefore, stability is the first priority, and Harry doesn't need him to lead the shop assistants to forge ahead.
The reason why Sirius was chosen earlier was because Harry really didn't have any suitable candidates around him. With Sirius' identity and strength, he could at least calm down the situation.
The first and second floors of the store can be managed by students part-time. Even if the Weasley brothers can't come to the store when they are in school, they can still hire a temporary worker to take care of it.
