Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 350: The book has its own gold

"There are really not many candidates." Mr. Broad was not angry, but said with a smile, "However, aren't there two suitable talents this time? Of course, Katrina's talents are actually It’s just barely enough, but I don’t know what my personality is like.”

"Tell me about the benefits of inheriting this surname!"

"The benefit?" Mr. Broad stroked his beard, "The biggest benefit is that you will have the opportunity to read the knowledge left by the Wildsmith family for hundreds of years. Every heir is a genius and will Keep what you do best."

At this moment, Albert finally understood why Isobel said in the letter that he should agree, which was really attractive to him.

"Of course, you will get a sum of money, a house of your own, oh, you've seen the house, yes, it's here." When Mr. Broad said the latter, it was Very casual, as if it were something unimportant.

“These are not really important, because those who can be selected will not be short of these things. We just nudge you a little behind to make you go faster and smoother, that’s all.”

"If I agree, what will it cost?" Albert asked, "I don't think there is a free lunch in the world."

"There are some responsibilities that are actually pretty easy."

Mr. Broad smiled happily, knowing that he had successfully persuaded Albert that few would reject such an offer.

"The first point, you need to keep this secret, and you can't tell anyone, not even your relatives." Mr. Broad raised his second finger and said, "The second point, choose The right person, the heir you said, must contribute to the cultivation of the next generation and must not be selfish. Lastly, leave your knowledge before you die.”

"No more?" Albert's face was stunned, as if he really made money!

"No, that's it, the responsibility is very easy." Mr. Broad nodded: "Most of it is actually a benefit, because most of the people who are selected are very smart, and they usually don't refuse, You probably know why you won't refuse, because there is no harm at all, and you can get a lot of benefits for nothing."

"I would take the liberty to ask, why would you agree to it?" Albert hesitated for a moment, but then asked.

"Why? Don't you find it fascinating to accumulate knowledge over hundreds of years?" Mr. Broad said with a wink. "A large part of the knowledge has even been lost."

"Okay, when can I see those things?" Albert agreed, Mr. Broad's words were indeed fascinating, and the knowledge left by countless geniuses is their best field. , it is a golden mountain for Albert who is open.

Others may only be able to select and absorb part of the knowledge, but Albert is ready to turn all that knowledge into his own nutrition.

"Originally, you need to enter Wildsmith's castle to have the opportunity to read those books, but after I discussed with a few other people, you are allowed to read the books there, but Wildsmith Castle needs to wait for you to become an adult, Only those who truly inherit the surname can be allowed in," Mr Broad said.

"The castle hasn't been discovered yet?" Albert said in surprise, "You guys are hiding it well, is it the Faithful Loyalty Charm?"

"Why do you say that?" Mr. Broad asked in surprise.

"You said that only wizards who inherit the surname of Wild Smith can be allowed in there, and others will never be able to find that place." Albert said his guess, "If it was me, I would use my heart and soul to be loyal. Curse, the characteristic of the Brave Loyalty Curse is that when the secrecy person dies, other insiders will automatically become secret keeper. There are only a few members of the Wildsmith family, and few people know your identity. Naturally, others will always look for you. Not anymore."

"Wonderful." Mr. Broad couldn't help but clapped and admitted directly, "It's really the Brave Loyalty Charm."

"I have a question."

"You said it." Mr. Broad was all ears.

"Is the founder of Wild Smith Ignatia Wild Smith, the inventor of Floo Powder?" Albert asked his doubts.

"You sure have found it." Mr. Broad was not surprised, "The name Wildsmith actually comes from Ignatia Wildsmith's father: Will De Smith."

"Sure enough, I've seen this name in Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets." Albert connected a lot of things." Then again, Ignacia Wildsmith's queen What about people?"

"We are his descendants." Professor Broad said flatly: "Everyone who is selected has a blood connection with this surname, and the selected person not only needs blood, but also There needs to be enough wisdom, and there should be no problems with character."

"I thought the Smith family was her direct descendant." Albert couldn't help laughing at himself.

"The inheritance of blood is very unreliable. You should have realized that the descendants of the Big Four of Hogwarts have all disappeared in a long time, and many ancient families have weakened. Only we are still very Strong." Speaking of this, Mr. Broad's tone was filled with undisguised pride. "Every Wild Smith is a genius, and only a genius is eligible to inherit the name Wild Smith."

"Why is Mr. Rowena unqualified?"

"Because we voted, we all thought he was inappropriate." Mr. Broad told a harsh truth.

"And Mr. Gerber Smith?"

"As I said, we never show any favoritism when selecting candidates." Mr. Broad shook his head.

"Looks like I'm lucky!" Albert laughed to himself.

"No, because you're really a good fit," Mr. Broad said. "It's something we decided together, so there's nothing wrong with that."

"I'm curious why Rowena Smith is not qualified?" Albert recalled what Rowena looked like at the time, frowning and said, "I think half of what he became like was caused by you."

"This matter was originally a secret." Mr. Broad shook his head and said, "Even if we get some clues from some records, it's actually useless. We will try our best to cultivate those talented people. However, this is not the case. Doesn't mean they're right."

"Rowena's talent is actually not bad, but his character is too bad, especially for doing things like that." Mr. Broad said this matter with a bit of indifference, "Actually, you should also realize When it arrives, we are not eager to inherit that surname, it is a dispensable existence for us, because we are all talented enough, even if we don’t need its glory and help, we can go far.”

"Where's Isobel's father?" Albert asked rhetorically.

"Brell, the talent is not as good as Rowena, and... it was directly considered inappropriate by everyone a long time ago." Professor Broad recalled: "In general, we will be friendly with them. We have a good relationship as we used to."

"I suddenly feel a little sympathetic to Rowena Smith!" Albert laughed to himself.

Isobel's father's death was largely the responsibility of Rowena Smith, and that guy was also guilty of it.

It turned out like this~IndoMTL.com~ No, you don't need to pity him. "Mr. Broad shook his head and said, "Since he did that, he can't blame others for his fate." "

"Last question, when will I see what I want?" Albert said, looking at Mr. Broad.

"I brought you a copy!" said Mr. Broad, pointing to a wooden box beside him.

For some reason, the box in front of him gave Albert an oddly familiar feeling.

"The book is in there?" he asked.

"Yes, it's in there."

Albert felt like he was going to be blinded when he opened the box.

Inside the box is a book, a metal book.

"Is this brass? No, this is... gold?"

Albert looked at Mr. Broad in disbelief. "It's made of gold...books?"

"It's not all gold, but there is some silver and a small amount of other metals in it." Mr. Broad said with a smile: "At first, I was stunned by this thing. You can believe a castle Are there lots of books made of gold and silver?"

"You're so rich!" said Albert dryly, waving his wand and flying out of the box of golden books, landing on the sloping desk in front of him.

"Knowledge is more valuable," Mr. Broad said softly. "And, we're never short of money."

"Did you pick this book for me on purpose?" Albert read about the manufacturing method of double-sided mirrors in the book. Obviously, the owner of this book was the former double-sided mirror manufacturer.

Albert found such a line on the back of the writing

I leave the knowledge of my life in the book. For those who come later, I hope you can find your own happiness in the book. - Blair Burst.
