Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 671: Anderson’s troubles

While the British wizarding world is raging over Sirius Black's escape from prison, the Muggle world in Britain is also boiling over one thing.

A lawyer named Herb Anderson took out the lottery jackpot.

Countless people are envious and jealous.

However, the Andersons are struggling to win the jackpot.

Winning the jackpot is naturally a good thing.

But this may not be a good thing for Herb.

The number was given to him by his son Albert, who said before going to France:

In a few years, the UK will no longer be safe, so their family will need to leave the UK for a while, and the lottery money is their moving expenses.

No one in the family is excited about this.

After winning the jackpot, a bunch of questions followed.

Daisy found out that her relatives, whom she didn't usually communicate with very often, actually began to contact them, and there were not a few people who came to visit.

Fortunately, her brother Charlie's business is also booming, otherwise he doesn't know what will happen.

In fact, even Charlie came to them to discuss this than the use of money, which he thinks should be invested more efficiently.

The Andersons rejected Charlie on the grounds that they had to discuss with Albert before investing.

Charlie had some regrets, but he couldn't refute it, because his success was related to Albert's advice, and he didn't dare to say anything unpleasant.

Before leaving, ask Daisy to bring him along to make money.

Heb was looking at the latest information, also frowning, and said to his wife: "I just had someone investigate the overseas colony that Albert mentioned. That land will be in 1997. It was returned to the other party on July 1, which was agreed upon by Mrs Thatcher in September 1982."

"Are we really leaving the UK?" Daisy looked at her husband in disbelief.

Honestly, living in an unfamiliar place makes her uncomfortable, and she doesn't want to give up her life as a lawyer. If she gave up her current life because of this windfall, God knows what the future will be like, and she will become rich overnight. If it is not handled properly, the results will certainly not be very good.

"No, I think Albert's opinion should be respected." Herb sighed lightly and reminded, "Do you think we really have other options? With Albert's character, it has been predicted that danger is imminent. If we come, he will never allow us to stay in the UK, and in the end will use magic to 'convince' us, and then pack and send us away."

Daisy was silent.

The couple still know their son's character quite well, and the genius is always very stubborn in certain things. With Albert's ability, this kind of thing is entirely possible.

"Maybe, we should tell him the good news." Herb took the lead to break the silence. He went back to the bedroom to get the double-sided mirror that Albert had left for them to communicate with, and began to call Albert's face in the mirror. name.

After a long time, a figure was reflected in the double-sided mirror, and Albert's face appeared in front of them.

"Won the lottery?" Albert asked.

“How do you know?”

As soon as Daisy said it, she was stunned. How did Albert know? Probably guessed it. After all, their son is so smart, and he has long predicted that he will win the jackpot.

"How much?"

"You don't know?" Nia asked in surprise.

"How much?" Albert asked.

"10 million pounds." Herb said with a smile. "After taxes, you still get a lot of money."

"Probably still have about 6 million pounds!" Albert estimated a little, and couldn't help but complain, "However, this tax is really heavy."

Heb ignored his son's complaints and asked, "You got this money, what are you going to do with it?"

"Go to the colony to invest." Albert said without hesitation, "After the colony returns, the last capital spree will begin in that place, and housing prices should fall by half."

"Are you going to buy a house?"

"Yes." Albert knew what Herb was thinking, and explained, "The colony itself relies on a large country with a population of 1 billion, and there is no caste problem in the subcontinent, which means that the population will become a national take-off. It is also destined to take off.”

"The capital and the largest coastal cities are good investment targets. You can attract a group of people and set up a company to invest in the past."

Heb opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Can it take off?

If it's true as Albert said, now is a great opportunity to make money.

"I heard that the judges over there seem to be tenured, you can go ahead and get yourself a judge position. Now you can prepare first, understand the situation over there, learn the language over there, and wait to make money The time has come." After Albert finished speaking, he thought about it and added: "By the way, remember to leave some money for me."

Albert rambled about a lot of things again, and finally Herb took a pen and slowly recorded his instructions there. As a lawyer, Herb certainly has his own subjective opinions, but now, he feels that he should refer to his son's opinions first.

He has to admit, being able to predict is amazing!

"You can ask Charlie." Daisy still helped her cheap relatives by pulling them along. As for whether they are willing to participate or not, it is not something she should care about.

"Let's reduce the work of the law firm. Let's collect information first to prepare. We'll go there to investigate when we have time. It's best to get in touch with there."

Heb has recovered from the shock of winning the jackpot, and has made a series of judgments clearly in his mind. He also knows where Albert is talking without back pain. If he really wants to implement it and profit from it, he still needs someone Work hard for this.

"It would be nice to have a judge for life."

As long as there is money, everything is possible, this is the world of capital, not to mention, he is also a lawyer and is very familiar with that.

"What should I do?" Nia was even more depressed.

"Follow us over there." Herb said without hesitation: "When you leave the UK, your studies here will be almost the same. As for university, you can go there at that time, and you need to study management. knowledge.”

"Albert is so annoying!"

Nia doesn't like being arranged, although she also understands the importance of money.

Hey!

At that time, the opening of Albert's purse was pinched in her hand.

……

"Who were you talking to?"

Isobel, who had just taken a shower, was wearing a nightgown, standing outside the door with two cups of hot water, and handed one of the cups to Albert.

"My family, they told me they won."

"Winning?"

"Muggle lottery jackpot," said Albert with a smile, "about £6 million."

"6 million pounds?" Isobel carefully recalled the exchange rate between Muggle pounds and Galleons: "If all converted into Galleons, it would be: 1.2 million Galleons."

Speaking, the girl's mouth couldn't help the boss.

"Wealth fan." Albert smiled and tapped Isobel's forehead, reminding, "This money is difficult to exchange for Galleon."

"I suddenly thought the Daily Prophet's Galleons were a joke." Isobel sighed.

"It's normal. There are more Muggles than wizards. Naturally, the wealth created is not comparable to wizards. The meaning of wealth is not just a pile of gold coins." Albert looked at Isobel, who was still a little dazed. Reaching out his arms around each other, he explained with a smile.

"What do you want that much money for?" reminds Isobel ~IndoMTL.com~ If the Ministry of Magic knew about you...you stole that much money from the Muggle world. "

"Stealing, no no, that's not stealing, it's normal for Muggles to win lottery tickets in the Muggle world." Albert reminded with a smile, "The Ministry of Magic can't trouble me because the money doesn't belong to me, At least I won't intervene, I won't leave any evidence, and most wizards don't understand Muggle things at all, they don't even know it exists."

"Not found guilty?"

Isobel was reminded of Albert's fallacy.

"There are no conscientious capitalists now." Albert curled his lips and said, "Also, my method is completely legal, so you can't slander me."

Isobel couldn't help rolling her eyes, she didn't want to continue the topic, and then she felt like she was being hugged.

"We should celebrate winning the jackpot."

"Don't do that," Isobel said shyly. "You're going to disturb others, and I'm already very tired today."

"This room is actually enchanted, it can block the sound and will not disturb the rest of the LeMay couple." Albert smiled and closed the door and lowered the curtains.
