The sickly iron fist beauty in Harry Potter

It can be said that Dolly's family has completely achieved the level of financial freedom. Even Vernon has become much freer in doing business this year.

At least when faced with those disgusting customers, Vernon could proudly say no.

Since Vernon couldn't stop Dolly, he could only have a serious discussion with Dolly about the future distribution of the family's wealth.

This meeting was still a meeting between Dolly and Vernon, and Harry and Petunia did not participate.

Penny is a person with a strong sense of life. She is accustomed to and likes this kind of family life. Dolly is worried that she will fall into chaos if she is rashly asked to handle more wealth.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Dolly will still let Penny be a hard-working housewife.

Dolly had planned all the ways in which she could use money to reduce Penny's workload.

If Penny hadn't definitely disagreed, Dolly would even want to hire some people to help Penny share the burden.

Then there was the matter of Vernon's job and the family's address.

Finally, considering magical defense and living habits, Dolly gave up the idea of buying a new house, and Vernon would still keep his job.

However, at Dolly's suggestion, Vernon has begun to seriously consider the idea of acquiring his own company.

That way, the pressure on Vernon would be less, the Dursleys would have their first real property, it would be legal and reasonable, and Vernon would have someone who knew him well.

The final question is how to deal with this wealth.

Simply investing in hot stocks is obviously no longer realistic.

It’s not because investing in monster stocks is no longer profitable, but because Dolly’s money is already enough to shake the trend of monster stocks.

The reason why monster stocks are monster stocks is that they are not large in size at the beginning, so they have room for rapid growth and also room for buying and selling.

If the Dursleys hold too much of a hot stock, it might cause speculators to abandon it.

Therefore, we still have to continue investing in monster stocks, but it is impossible to make as much money as in the past.

Dolly could only invest two million pounds at most and earn another ten million pounds or so in a year, and that was the result of careful investment planning.

As for the rest, Dolly temporarily selected a few stocks that would have stable and slight growth in the next year and asked Vernon to invest in them.

Not to make more money, just to beat inflation.

This is not final investment advice.

Dolly needs to think slowly about what to invest in. She certainly cannot make a hasty decision in such a short time.

At the same time, Dolly formally suggested to Vernon that perhaps their family should set up their own investment company.

Vernon hesitated.

He actually felt that the money his family earned was enough, and based on their current lifestyle, they would not be able to spend it all in a lifetime, so why did they still need to make money?

However, when Vernon thought about what Dolly had experienced in the past two days, he did not say a word of objection.

Because Vernon knew very well that in a capitalist country, having money means having resources and power.

He and Penny could continue living like this for the rest of their lives.

But Dolly needs more resources and security so that she can live a safer life.

If Dolly became a very famous person in the UK, the wizards would probably need special protection for her. Dolly had already told Vernon that the Ministry of Magic was actually under Whitehall in the UK, and she told it as an interesting story.

In Vernon's view, such a structure means that Muggles and wizards are not completely unconnected, at least their top leaders are connected.

This is actually not a very difficult situation to guess. In fact, as parents of wizards, Vernon and Petunia are qualified to know these secrets.

In other words, consider your own children.

Regardless of Dolly's future life or safety, since Dolly now has the ability, Vernon cannot hold his daughter back.

Of course, Vernon knew this too.

He was not cut out for working in the financial and investment fields. At most, he could help Dolly manage some of the most basic tasks. The rest required him to recruit people from the Muggle world.

This was obviously a rather difficult problem, but Vernon had decided to try hard to solve it.

Just like when he wanted to marry Penny and make more money, he became a company manager despite having such a clumsy body.

As long as he works hard, it's not impossible.

Of course, Vernon's determination was ultimately due to Dolly's ability.

It's not just because of his ability to predict the future, but also because his daughter is a witch.

In this way, Vernon would not have to worry about the conspiracies and tricks that most ordinary people might encounter, as Dolly could solve the problem with just one magic.

The Dursleys will not use this money and resources to bully others or do cruel things. They can also use magic to protect their home from being attacked by evil forces.

With such generous conditions, Vernon gained greater confidence.

Vernon decided to spend a month to acquire his company and establish a basic foundation first.

Of course, Vernon didn't tell Dolly about these plans.

Instead, he planned to use his own abilities to solve the problem, which was also a little surprise that Vernon prepared for his daughter.

In this way, Dolly hurriedly made a development plan for the Dursley family in the next year, and began to pack all the luggage she needed to return to school tomorrow.

Dolly actually didn't need to prepare much, and since she could use magic at will, she didn't waste much time.

So while Dolly was doing these things, she was thinking about how to solve the next problems and troubles after returning to Hogwarts.

Simply put, in the next six months, she and Dumbledore will have to deal with problems such as the diary, Peter Pettigrew, the Chamber of Secrets, and possibly Lucius.

Although strictly speaking, since Dumbledore knew this, it would not be difficult to solve these problems.

But Dolly didn't want to be ambushed again.

If Dumbledore didn't take action, Dolly would have to find Peter Pettigrew as soon as possible.

At least this way Dolly can sleep more peacefully.

Of course, Dolly basically doesn't have to worry about any magical traps in Hogwarts, and even Dobby can't cause any trouble in Hogwarts.

After all, there are still a lot of house-elves in Hogwarts.

In this way, a busy and even somewhat chaotic day ended. When Dolly opened her eyes the next day, it was time to get on the bus to King's Station.

Penny's eyes were red again.

She couldn't even spend some quality time with her daughter during this holiday.

Dolly promised to play with her family throughout the summer vacation, which made Penny smile again.

After saying goodbye to their family, Dolly and Harry pushed the cart into the station. This time they didn't see any acquaintances.

So Harry started chatting with Dolly directly. There were some things he had been holding in his heart and he didn't have the chance to say them.

"Do you think the Malfoys did this?"

Harry asked quietly, a dangerous glint in his eyes.

Dolly sensed Harry's vengeful mood and said, "It's not certain yet, so don't rush into it. It will only alert the enemy."

"Also, the most important thing is this other guy. His name is..."

Dolly stopped talking immediately because she saw Ron.

And on Ron's shoulder was the rat that Dolly was familiar with.

That is Peter Pettigrew with a broken finger.

203

Chapter 203 New School Rules.

Dolly looked at the mouse, a sense of disbelief welling up in her mind.

According to her deduction, shouldn't the mouse have obtained the diary and is now negotiating with Dumbledore inside Hogwarts?

Why are you still with Ron?

"Hey, Dolly!"

Ron thought Dolly was looking at him, so he came over to say hello and said, "How are you?"

"I've heard all about you. This is truly a dangerous... uh, journey?"

Dolly withdrew her gaze and said, "How did you know? Did Harry tell you?"

Harry shook his head quickly. He would not gossip about such things.

But Ron's next words made Dolly very upset.

"Actually, many people know about it. After all, the wizarding world isn't that big, is it?"

"Many wizards went to your house that day. Not all staff at the Ministry of Magic are as secretive as the Aurors."

"Well, in fact, even the Daily Prophet reported your story..."

Dolly looked up at the sky in silence.

She didn't expect that this matter would spread so far.

Dolly didn't feel ashamed to face others because of the attack.

In fact, it is a good thing that this matter can spread. If Dolly catches the murderer in the future, the punishment he will receive will be more severe.

Dolly felt speechless because once this matter spread, it meant that Harry's residence would no longer be kept secret.

Although it is highly unlikely that any Death Eaters will actually attack Harry now, it is obvious that both Harry and the Dursleys are more wary of unknown dangers than in the original book.

Did she really mess it up?

No, Dolly thought for a moment and then dismissed the idea.

She didn't think she had done anything wrong.

If so many things happened because of her existence here and because she became a wizard, then it naturally should not be her fault.

If there was any fault, it was Voldemort and the Death Eaters' fault.

Dolly is not someone who would indulge in self-pity. Rather than indulging in self-pity, she would rather make her enemies bow their heads and repent.

Harry obviously didn't understand what was going on and was still arguing with Ron about the details of Dolly's appearance in the Daily Prophet.

Dolly took them both into the car and didn't want to delve into the issue.

At least the Dursleys are safe now, but if Voldemort can be resurrected in the future, the Dursleys will probably have to move.

Soon, the three of them found a place to sit down.

For that reason, not every student goes home at Christmas, so there is no shortage of seats on the train.

Ron continued to ask about the details of Dolly's experience, and Dolly began to chat with Ron in a casual manner.

Her attention was still focused on the mouse in Ron's hand, but Dolly still couldn't do anything with it.

Although Dolly has gained some confidence in confronting Peter Pettigrew, he is still very dangerous after all, so let's leave this matter to Dumbledore.

Dolly was curious about whether the mouse had left Ron's side during this holiday.

Soon, Hermione arrived.

Before she came in, Crookshanks had already jumped onto Dolly's knees and meowed at her as if to express some concern.

Ron immediately covered his mouse as well. He didn't want his mouse to be eaten by the cat.

Seeing this, Dolly felt that this was an opportunity.

"Ron, is it true that your rat lived to be a teenager?"

Dolly seemed to be chatting casually and said, "I remember that mice usually only live for two or three years, right?"

"Of course!"

Ron said proudly: "This is a mouse I raised with great care. Scabbers is not comparable to ordinary mice."

"But lately it's been acting listless and has bitten me several times. Fred and George say it's suffering from Alzheimer's."

Hermione couldn't help but chuckle and said, "A mouse can get Alzheimer's?"

Ron rolled his eyes at Hermione and said, "Wait until your cat can live for ten years before you laugh at me. I'm afraid you won't have that chance."

Well, now the two of them are on edge again.

But Ron didn't really care.
