Harry Potter: Badger's Flathead

"Nice to meet you again, Mr. Malfoy."

"Me too, but I think we can call each other by our first names, Mr. Bartlett. This is my wife, Narcissa."

"Nice to meet you." Narcissa also gave her husband face outside the home. Knowing that her husband was still here to discuss business today, she restrained most of her arrogance.

After introducing each other, the place was left to the adults. Alvin took Draco to his room, Alina took Narcissa away, and then there was a conversation between the two people in power.

What we are talking about this time is the business of the pet industry. The wizarding world does not pay much attention to pet supplies such as owls and toads, so it is usually small workshops or pet stores that make their own snacks and other products for sale.

Diagon Alley also has a magical beasts shop and an owl shop.

There is no formal industrial chain to generate profits, because there are only a few varieties of pets in the wizarding world, and all of them are magical creatures that are relatively skinny, so not many people care about pets.

Just like Puff Rong, although that little thing looks cute, it is actually a scavenger and can easily be fed with leftovers, so there is no need to worry about taking care of it.

I found this picture that is clearer.

But the market cannot be directly determined as to whether it exists or not. If there is no market, then there will be speculation!

Even a cup can be flipped and sold at a high price. The pet market is a popular industry in the 21st century. Is it difficult to make it popular in the wizarding world?

As a big capitalist in the wizarding world, the Malfoy family wants to control the market. After all, the "speculation economy" is a game of capital.

Coupled with the already established factory of the Margrave family, as long as the Malfoy family organizes a complete industrial chain in the wizarding world and monopolizes it, wouldn't Galleon come in?

With the first step of development, there will be a series of services such as pet cultivation, pet boarding, pet funeral, and so on.

Taking advantage of the fact that the demand for pets in the wizarding world is not very high, we should seize the opportunity first.

Then after the status of pets is raised in the wizarding world, as long as there is a pure-blood family taking the lead, more and more people will follow suit, and there will be no need to worry about running out of business!

And after the wizarding world improves, Ivan's other businesses will also be invested in it, and some special products will also be invested in the Muggle world, thus forming a complementary cycle and making money together!

The economy needs to work. Only by taking out the Galleons hidden in Gringotts can we make more money. Money will not generate small amounts of money in the vault on its own!

The goblins in Gringotts may be crying~ and I hope they remember how to make more Galleons instead of thinking about how to put Galleons into Gringotts all day long.

……

"Evan, your home is not bad, but it is a little worse than mine. Next time it will be my turn to take you to my manor." Draco was still so arrogant.

Even Alvin, who is used to him like this, doesn’t mind~

"Then I will wait to see the ancient Malfoy Manor."

But what Draco said was not wrong. The manor where the Ivans live now is a modern product and is certainly not comparable to the Malfoy family's old house.

The Margrave family's old house is in the central region of England. They came to London for development. In Alvin's impression, he has not returned to his old house for several years.

Now only the second uncle and his family live there in the old house. They have been very busy in recent years and only greet each other on the phone during holidays. (Foreigners definitely don’t call it that. I wrote it in a form that we can understand.)

Great-grandfather had three children in total. The only one left in the family was his witch aunt Celine, whom he had never seen. She must have moved to the magical world, but he didn't know how she was doing now and there had been no news about her.

(Ai Wen: I don’t know whether my great-grandfather is a squib or my great-grandmother is a squib~)

The plot is brought back——

"Come on Draco, let me show you what the Olympics is like for ordinary people." As Ivan said, he pulled Draco to sit down in front of the big color TV. It happened to be the time for the Olympics to be broadcast.

"Oh! Then you have to tell me carefully." Draco's interest also rose.

Ivan put all the snacks and drinks that he had prepared long ago and waited for Draco to come to the door.

However, Alvin looked at Draco's outfit with some confusion. He was wearing a high-end robe customized by Madam Malkin, with a mink collar decoration on it, and a small black suit underneath.

Looking at the bright sun outside again, Alvin was curious, isn't this child hot?

I haven't heard of Madam Malkin's robes having a cooling function? The same goes for Lucius and his wife, one wearing a suit and a robe, the other wearing a long skirt and robe, with their arms and legs covered tightly. Their clothes reflect the style of a wizarding aristocrat, but~ isn't it hot?

It’s 29° outside today~

……

"Good shot! This is a bit like Quidditch. That guy's fake move just now was so beautiful!" Draco cheered, holding up popcorn.

Alvin didn't answer Draco. He rubbed his cheeks and drank the orange juice from the straw.

Not only did he have to teach this kid about the rules and methods of the science game, but he also had to answer his weird questions. In this hour, he almost finished speaking for a week, and his cheeks were sore.

If I had known better, I would have sent this boy a box of sports magazines before the vacation started.

"Evan, look at this, it's very similar to Quidditch, except they don't ride broomsticks, and there's no Golden Snitch."

Alvin glanced at it and realized that Draco was referring to a football game, which was indeed very similar.

Draco was chattering non-stop. This was the first time he had seen so many ways to play. He used to be dismissive of the Muggle world.

Thinking about it now, he regretted why he didn't find out earlier! This way it won’t be less fun.

After watching the broadcast of the game, Alvin took Draco to play the game console again. Originally, Alvin wanted to give him a Nintendo, but after thinking about it, Malfoy's old house should also belong to that kind of imposition. Lots of places for protection spells.

Just like Hogwarts, there are too many magics and a special magnetic field. Electronic equipment will malfunction if it enters it, so it should be impossible to play.

Unless they are willing to buy an ordinary house...

But if that were the case, would Draco lose his mind by playing with things? After all, this kid is not an honest kid...

But Alvin glances at the clock from time to time. Dinner is about to start, and the dishes tonight are very rich.

But Alvin glanced at a table full of potato chips, shrimp crackers, and popcorn packaging, as well as Draco holding tons of Coke.

I don’t know if this stupid kid will be able to eat it after a while~

He can eat it anyway! After his physique was strengthened, he digested faster, and even when he was full, he could continue to eat some more! (￣︶￣)

Chapter 68 The deal is finalized, treat Malfoy to dinner

"Here, take two pills of this." Ivan took out two triangular pills and handed them to Draco.

"What is this?" Although Draco was curious, he still threw it into his mouth without hesitation.

(Draco: It’s okay. The candy is quite delicious.)

"This is a Jianweixiaoshi tablet, which helps digestion. It's almost time to eat, so don't eat snacks yet, otherwise you will regret missing my dinner!"

Ai Wen thought for a while and took out this children's digestive artifact. We can't let children come over and just stare at a table full of delicious food! ︿(￣︶￣)︿

"Master, it's time to eat." The butler knocked on the door and called the two of them to eat.

"Come on, come on!" (????)?

After pausing the game, Alvin picked up Draco and ran to the bathroom to wash his hands. Before Draco could dry his hands after washing, he felt like his whole body was flying.

When passing by the maid, the wind blew up the skirt of this pretty little maid.

Maid: (????) Ya’er~

As soon as the old housekeeper reached the second floor, he saw a dark shadow in front of him, and it passed by in a flash. He couldn't see clearly what it was.

Chas: "Did a big black rat just pass by? Something swiped past!"?(°?°)?

The scene in front of him changed, and before Draco could react, someone else was sitting at the dining table.

Draco:（*゜ー゜*)???

Lucius and Narcissa, who had already been on the table, were also stunned.

When did their son come here?

Bartlet and Alina were used to it. Since returning from vacation, they found that their son was surprisingly fast, especially when eating.

Ivan returned to his good boy self and sat in his chair waiting for the food to be served.

"I'm going to make you laugh. This kid is like this. He is very active when it's time to eat." Alina explained a little embarrassedly.

"It's funny, Uncle Lucius, Aunt Narcissa." Ivan complained slightly.

"It's okay, kid. I remember Alvin is a Hufflepuff. This is normal." Lucius came back to his senses from his son teleporting to the dining table.

Hufflepuff? It's normal. How could it be done so quickly without magic? This puzzled Lucius.

"It seems that tonight's dinner is worth looking forward to. It must be great to have a Hufflepuff take such an interest."

Narcissa also smiled and said, not minding Alvin's inappropriate behavior at all. It was obvious that she and Alina got along very well this afternoon.

This afternoon, the two women talked more about their sons than their husbands. Because they were in two worlds, they couldn't talk about shopping or other topics together.

Because of their similar family backgrounds, plus being the mother of her son's friend and her husband's business partner, Narcissa was able to put away her discriminatory attitude towards Muggles very well.

She couldn't embarrass the Malfoy men outside.

However, she and Alina got along very well this afternoon, and she learned a lot of interesting Muggle information.

Draco still hadn't recovered from the mess, and his little mind was still running wildly about how he got here.

"Well, the food is finally served. I hope you like it." The maids brought the prepared dishes to the table, and Bartlett made an inviting gesture to the Malfoy family.

Ten main dishes including roasted sea cucumber with green onions, squirrel mandarin fish, crab meat and lion head, Buddha Jumping over the Wall, Dongpo Pork, Blanched Chicken, Kung Pao Chicken, Boiled Pork Slices, Pineapple Sour Pork, Braised Pork Ribs, and four vegetarian cold dishes. , and a pot of pearl emerald white jade soup!

A sumptuous oriental banquet was served, and the tempting aroma finally called the messy Draco back!

"Wow~" The young master was shocked.

Let’s not talk about the taste for now. This is at least bigger than the plate, with fewer dishes, and putting a root in the blank space is more visually appealing.

Don’t doubt the quality of the presentation of the national dishes. Those that ordinary people usually eat will be served to you at most. Serious national dishes are also served with great care!

"You're welcome, feel free to do it as you would at home!"

Bowls of crystal clear white rice were served, announcing that the dinner for the Malfoy family had officially begun!

Since this family does not know how to use chopsticks, there is a waiter who can use chopsticks to serve them specially.

But the family of three saw how flexibly the Ivan family and the waiter serving them used the two small sticks, and they all became interested and started to try it one after another.

In fact, chopsticks are easy to learn. As long as your fingers are not very inflexible and you master the appropriate method, you can learn it after getting used to it.

The Lucius couple adapted quickly and found that using this kind of tableware to pick up food was really flexible and convenient.

They had heard of it before, but due to regional habits, they did not take the initiative to try it. This time, it was the first time they tried it, but it felt very novel.

Our young master Draco has not yet learned how to use a pair of chopsticks, and he couldn't pick up a piece of chicken for a long time.

"Hey hey hey ~ Draco, are your fingers not flexible?" (???' )
