Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 789: Behind the scenes


  Chapter 790 Behind the scenes

  The Gryffindor students were in the throes of winning the Quidditch trophy, and the common room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere as everyone talked about the fun that happened during the game.

   However, what excites them even more is that they won the bet.

  Yes, money won.

   still makes money from the dealer on the Slytherin side, and nothing makes them happy.

   Of course, this money is not easy to earn.

   Only if Gryffindor scores the first goal, Harry successfully catches the Snitch, Gryffindor defeats Slytherin, and finally wins the Quidditch trophy, etc. , they are considered to win the bet, and the group of Slytherin dealers need to pay twice the odds for this.

  "How is it?"

  Kenneth was surrounded by a group of people as soon as he returned to the common room, and everyone asked Slytherin whether he paid back the money on time.

  "Unfortunately, they don't have as many Galleons to pay our debts for now, but I've got everyone's principal back first. The rest will be paid off by Slytherin before the school holidays."  

  "How can this be."

   Everyone is very dissatisfied with the practice of Slytherin students not paying back the money they owe, and they are afraid that they will not pay it back.

   "They really don't have any money to give. After all, they lost so badly. All three academies won, so they lost. Don't push too hard, give them some time." Kenneth is kind. Understandable.

  There is no way, the group of dealers in Slytherin lost so badly that they could not pay enough to take off their pants.

   He estimated that the Slytherin side would need to pay at least a few hundred Galleons, and at least thirty or forty Galleons would be distributed to the dealers. Kenneth doubted whether those guys would be able to spend the money. , Although those people's families are rich, it does not mean that they are also rich.

  "What if they don't pay back the money?" Someone still couldn't help but ask, "Slytherin students have always had a bad reputation, what if they don't pay back?"

   "They don't dare." Kenneth sneered, "unless they want to be targeted by the students of the three houses, and we have signed a magical contract with Slytherin, if they don't give it before the summer vacation If you have money, you will pay for it.”

   "What price?" Someone asked curiously.

  "Secret for now," Kenneth said mysteriously. "If they do breach the contract, you'll find their faces very interesting next semester."

  Kenneth dared to bet with the Slytherin guys with extremely bad credit. Naturally, he expected this to happen, so he was prepared, otherwise he would be willing to accept such unfavorable bet content Woolen cloth?

   "Speak up, speak up!" everyone urged.

  "If you don't want the principal." Kenneth took out a list from his pocket and began to distribute everyone's principal.

  "George, where's Albert?"

   After distributing the principal in the bag, Kenneth walked towards the three people playing wizard cards in the corner.

  "He went out."

   "Remember to help me return the Galleons to him." Kenneth put a small bag in front of George, "Twenty Galleons, oh yes, and this is your principal."

   "Did you make a lot of money this time?" George took the bag, checked the Galleon inside, and asked Kenneth, he felt that the guy in front of him must have made a lot of money by this opportunity.

   "This number." Kenneth raised his hand and shook it twice.

   "100 Galleons? I thought you were going to make a fortune." George felt that he had overestimated Kenneth's greed, knowing that after they knew that Albert took out 20 Galleons to bet, Also bet with Albert.

   "If the other party loses too much and exceeds the limit they can bear, the other party may simply not pay, then we will lose a lot." Kenneth naturally considered the situation that the other party could not afford to pay.

   At that time, it was not a matter of offending the students of the three colleges.

   Well, it was actually Albert who warned him not to be too greedy, let alone let the people in Slytherin lose too much, lest they be unable to pay.

   In fact, most of the students just support it, and no one will really spend a lot of money to gamble. Much of the money in this bet went into the pockets of a few.

   To this end, Kenneth directly tied the interests of the three academies, and also took out a magic contract to ensure that Slytherin did not dare to default.

  "You are really black."

   "If you think I have a bad heart, then give up the remaining twenty Galleons." Kenneth despised the three guys in front of him, and he obviously took advantage of it, so he was embarrassed to talk slander to him here.

   "Why don't you bet on your own ability to win money?" Fred pouted.

   The dealer on the Slytherin side was clearly arranged, but in the end, they didn't know who did it. The three of them are sure that even the unlucky Kenneth didn't realize that he was pushed to the front. pot.

   Well, the contract signed by the two parties has a magical effect. You can guess who provided that thing even if you think about it with your knees.

   "You... earn 20 Galleons?" Ron felt a little dull in his chest.

   "Yes, didn't you follow suit?" George couldn't understand the expression on Ron's face, and looked at Kenneth suspiciously, who shrugged half-smile.

   "What's the matter with you?" Hermione noticed Ron's strangeness.

  "Nothing." Ron turned his head to look at Harry and asked, "How many Galleons did you press?"

  "Ten Galleons." Harry said without hesitation, "I don't think we're going to lose, and I don't think I'm going to lose, much less."

  "As expected of Harry."

  "I just said it casually, what about you, I remember you betting too!" Harry looked at Ron's pale face, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

   "He later gave up on his own." Kenneth's expression was rather amused, as if trying to laugh, but holding back.

   "Why give up?" Lee Jordan was a little puzzled. He actually gave up on such a sure-fire thing?

   As long as you ask around, you know that the students from the three colleges are betting on the game with the Slytherin dealer, and they dare to make such a big move. Naturally, it is impossible to bet without thinking.

   "Actually, I always thought that Ron had nothing to do with money~IndoMTL.com~ Fred suddenly said.

   "I think so too." George nodded in agreement.

   "Shut up." Ron glared at the twin brother angrily. In fact, he also felt that he was unlucky, why did he give up in the first place?

   seems to have heard Albert say that Slytherin students like to cheat, and if they really lose a bet, they are likely to cheat directly and not give money, so he told Kenneth that he would not gamble, so as not to betray The rest of the money in the pocket was also lost.

   At this moment, the door of the common room was opened, and Albert stepped in.

   "Where have you been?" George picked up the purse on the table and threw it towards Albert.

   "Where is Hagrid. By the way, Hermione, you should be fine next Wednesday, take your Crookshanks to Hagrid and let the cat help him clean up the mice in the house."

   "Can't you do it tomorrow?" Hermione was a little puzzled and didn't understand why she chose next Wednesday.

   "He needs some time to sort things out," Albert said.

   As for why it is next Wednesday, it is naturally because next Wednesday is a full moon, and he is going to arrange the "cats, dogs and wolves" clearly in one breath.
