Chapter 785 Employment Consultation
"The three of you wait outside for a moment. It will be your turn after I finish talking to Albert." After Professor McGonagall motioned the three of them to go out, he raised his hand and pointed to the armchair next to him, asking Albert to sit down and talk: " Let’s talk about your thoughts on your future career, which will help you decide what subjects to continue studying in sixth and seventh grades.”
Albert frowned slightly, seeming to be seriously thinking about what Professor McGonagall said.
“Have you ever thought about what you will do after Hogwarts?”
“Not yet.” Albert shook his head, “However, I should write a book first after graduation.”
"Publish a book?" Professor McGonagall was surprised, but before she could continue to say anything, she heard Albert say, "Although "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide" is very good, it is not suitable for students at Hogwarts. It’s not enough to just learn what’s inside.”
“So, are you planning to write a book about the field of Defense Against the Dark Arts?” Professor McGonagall was startled by her own idea.
"Yes, the content of "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide" is very extensive, but it is only suitable for getting started, but it is not practical. In the field of black magic defense, we should pay more attention to practicality." Albert thought for a while and then said: "In In the near future, people in the wizarding world will need a more practical Defense Against the Dark Arts book to enhance their awareness of self-protection."
As he spoke, Albert took out the folder from the deformed lizard skin bag and handed it to Professor McGonagall.
"This is it?" Professor McGonagall took the folder and looked through the contents, then fell silent for a moment.
The words are really not just words, Albert has already done it. She even doubted that the book would be finished and published before Albert graduated.
Professor McGonagall opened her mouth, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever considered entering the Ministry of Magic? I believe that with your grades and connections, you can become the Minister of Magic in less than twenty years."
"I haven't thought about it, and I don't want to enter the Ministry of Magic. I don't feel very good there." Albert shook his head and said: "Maybe I will open a shop or become a fortune teller. I heard that the prophet He is well respected by everyone in the wizarding world."
"People who can truly predict the future are indeed highly respected by everyone, but there are really very few wizards like that." Professor McGonagall reminded kindly: "Most fortune tellers do not live a very good life. Maybe you have already understood ”
"I know." Albert said calmly: "But the real prophet never worries about these problems. By the way, the next principal of Hogwarts is Professor Snape, if a certain pink toad is not counted if."
"Is this... a prophecy?" Professor McGonagall was stunned when he heard this and looked at Albert suspiciously.
"Yes." Albert nodded: "In a few days, the magic world will usher in unexpected surprises. Maybe you can look forward to it a little bit."
"Well, I think the o.w.ls certificate and the N.E.w.Ts certificate are not worth mentioning to you." Professor McGonagall suddenly felt that she had really done something stupid just now, and Albert didn't need her at all. Employment consultation, he has already planned his life, and he doesn't need others to worry about it.
"If you want to be the Potions Professor that day, Hogwarts will definitely welcome you." Professor McGonagall said with a smile, "Call Fred in for me on your way out."
Albert was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "I will seriously consider it."
Looking at Albert's leaving back, Professor McGonagall frowned. If Snape becomes the principal, what about Dumbledore?
Also, what does the pink toad refer to? "
Just as Professor McGonagall was thinking about what Albert wanted to express, Fred had already opened the door and walked in.
"Sit down, Weasley." Professor McGonagall repeated what she had just said to Albert: "Let's talk about your thoughts on your future career. This can better help you decide to enter the sixth and seventh grades. What subjects should I continue to study after. Have you ever thought about what you will do after leaving Hogwarts?"
"Of course, Professor, I plan to open a joke shop, a joke shop that can bring joy to everyone. Well, a shop like Zuko's Joke Shop." Fred said.
“You’re going to open a joke shop.”
“Yes, we are already making preparations, and we should be able to open the store immediately after graduation.” Fred was very confident, and it didn’t look like he was bragging, but like he had already made preparations.
"you?"
Professor McGonagall felt that something was wrong with today's employment counseling. Fred had a clear goal and said he would open a store after finding a job.
"to us."
"Mr. Weasley, I have to remind you that opening a store requires a start-up capital." Professor McGonagall actually didn't want to hit Fred, and she didn't want to wait until Fred was ready to open the store, only to find that the Galleons in his pocket were not at all Not enough for him to open a store.
“Also, if you want to open a joke shop, I think you should put some thought into the five main subjects. After all, making those joke props requires sufficient knowledge as a basis to realize the idea.”
"Please don't worry about this. We have collected enough start-up funds, and Albert will also provide us with knowledge support." Fred said confidently, "He is very supportive of us and thinks we can open a business." Joke shops make money.”
"this…"
Professor McGonagall felt that she knew where the start-up funds Fred mentioned came from.
"Well, since you already have your own plan, I won't say more. Mr. Anderson's vision is still trustworthy, but I still suggest that you spend more time on your main subjects, especially in the field of magic. It’s never wrong to improve yourself now, and Mr. Anderson has been doing just that.”
“I know how to do it, Professor,” said Fred.
“When you get out, help me call George in.”
It can only be said that they are indeed twins. George and Fred's answers are basically the same.
Professor McGonagall looked at George's leaving back and was considering whether to continue the employment consultation. He wondered whether Lee Jordan would be like this in the future.
“What are you going to do after graduating from Hogwarts?” Lee Jordan frowned and asked, “Probably open a wizarding brand store.”
"Wizard Cards?" Professor McGonagall was stunned. Of course she knew what Wizard Cards were. Isn't this the club established by the four of them? It is said that this game was invented by Albert.
"Yes, Wizard card." Lee Jordan nodded and said, "Albert thinks this card has great prospects and will be separated from the joke shop. And I also like it very much. I hope that Wizard card can become popular throughout the world. The magic world. In fact, the professor should have noticed that the wizard card can not only bring joy and noise to everyone, but also well unite the students in the school, and can effectively enhance their knowledge of magic..."
Li Jordan's words made Professor McGonagall feel a little dizzy, but she finally understood what was going on. The feeling was that Albert took a few people out to open a store.
No wonder they are all so confident.
Is Albert great?
Of course they are awesome. They have already arranged things before graduation. Judging from their tone, she wouldn't be surprised if the three of them took out a folder and showed it to her.
(There really is such a thing)
As for where the galleons to open the store came from, Albert had already won two awards and had no shortage of start-up capital.
