Hogsmeade Village, Honeydukes Candy Shop.

Ambrosio Froome replenishing the shelves of the shop with sweets in preparation for the arrival of Hogwarts students to Hogsmeade.

"well!"

After sitting back at the counter, Froome stared at the notebook on the table and sighed softly.

The candy store owner has been in a bad mood recently. Since the rise of Fred and George's "Happy House" joke store, he can clearly feel that the business in the Honeydukes candy store has declined significantly, which makes Froome most angry What happened was Zuko's betrayal. He clearly agreed to suppress the business of Fred and George together. As a result, that guy turned around and defected directly to the enemy, and now he is still making a lot of money, which makes Froome feel like he has eaten shit. Uncomfortable, he is hesitating whether he should accept the invitation.

The magical candies sold by Fred and George do not actually overlap with the sweets and desserts he sells. There seems to be no conflict between the two parties. However, there are only so many people in the British wizarding world, and the purchasing power of most children is limited. Once someone Bought the candy from "Merry House" and couldn't afford the candy from Honeydukes.

At least, for the vast majority of Hogwarts students, the magic candy is more attractive to them when they are younger.

Even though his Honeydukes confectionary shop is famous throughout the UK, Froome knows that most of its customers come from Hogwarts students.

Honeydukes' candy store is clearly getting overwhelmed by the magic candies, and he's never been able to crack them to make something more attractive.

"Honey, you can help me take a look at the store first, and I'll go talk to Zuko." Froome closed his notebook, handed over the task of looking at the store to his wife, and walked directly towards Zuko's magic joke shop go.

He saw Zuko who was talking to John Hu Kan at the post office at a glance. After the two finished chatting, Froome walked over to greet each other.

"It seems that your business is booming here."

"It's not hot, but the business is okay, but it has nothing to do with me." Zuoko seemed to think of something, and sighed helplessly, "Why, are you planning to join too?"

"I did think about it, and I plan to talk to Fred and George first, but I can't get in touch with them for the time being." Froome didn't hide, who made Zoko's business explode, which made him jealous.

Who would have trouble with Garen?

"Don't look at me, I can't contact them." Zoko shrugged and motioned for Froome to talk in the store.

"You can't help it either?" Froome frowned slightly.

"No way." Zoko complained: "I heard that they were targeted by Death Eaters, and now I don't know where they are hiding. No wonder they asked me to help sell goods. I always feel that I was cheated by them." .”

"What do you mean by saying that you have little relationship with you?" Froome ignored Zoko's complaints, and he just said that unless the Weasley brothers were all killed by Death Eaters, the store would reopen. It's also just a matter of time.

"I'm actually the owner of this store. I can get a fixed salary every month. The items sold get a small commission. But I chose to retain the ownership of the original products in the store, so the commission rate is relatively low. "Zoko was a little depressed when he talked about this matter, because he found that many of the products in his original store could not be sold, even with discounts, and if he had chosen a higher share, the monthly bonus Long is quite impressive, and it is sustainable. The most depressing thing for Joko is that Lee Jordan has reminded him of this matter many times, and he still stubbornly makes the worst choice. Big fool.

Froome frowned slightly after listening to the conditions that the Weasley twins offered Zuko. Because the other party's conditions are not attractive to him at all. Although the Honeydukes Candy Store is not as popular as it used to be, it is still very profitable. According to Joko’s contract, it is not attractive to him at all.

"If you cooperate, the situation should be different. After all, my store was going to be closed at the beginning." Zuoko comforted: "You can consider contacting him to talk about the cooperation between the two parties."

"Well, it would be great if the Ministry of Magic could limit their monopoly." Froome felt a little regretful. It's not that he hasn't studied those magical candies, but he has never been able to crack the mystery. Even if the raw materials are cracked, the resulting effect It is far less effective than those magical candies.

"Don't even think about it. If we could limit them, we would have succeeded long ago." Zuko understood Froome's depression. After all, Zuko's magic joke shop was in a worse situation than Honeydukes, otherwise He would not accept the cooperation invitation either, living such a busy life, just relying on the daily needs of receiving, consignment and bill settlement, he was exhausted to death. After wanting to go out by himself, he gave up this tempting idea.

"If you can contact them one day, tell them that I am willing to talk to him about cooperation." Froome felt that he should leave a way for himself, lest the other party plan to enter the candy field one day, Honeydukes Candy Store Maybe it will end up with Zuko closing the store.

"I will, but you'd better not have any expectations." Zuko looked at his old friend and couldn't help shaking his head.

When Froome walked out of the joke shop and was about to return to the candy shop, he saw two employees of the Ministry of Magic who had just finished their patrol and were chatting with the proprietress of the Three Broomsticks, Ms. Rosmerta.

After the eyes of both sides met, Froome just nodded slightly to Ms. Rosmerta, then turned and returned to his shop.

This scene fell into the eyes of the member of the midlife crisis response team who was in charge of patrolling.

"Is there something wrong?"

Another young member of the crisis response team stops and looks back at his colleagues.

"nothing."

The two returned to the temporary base to rest, made themselves a cup of black tea, picked up the newspaper to read the latest news, and chatted about the current situation by the way.

"Do you think anyone in Hogsmeade was really controlled by the Imperius Curse?"

Since the Ministry of Magic sent people to Hogsmeade Village, they have checked the residents here more than once, but they didn't find anything abnormal.

"If there is, it must be under the Imperius Curse, otherwise it would have revealed its flaws." The middle-aged wizard took a sip of black tea and continued to read the newspaper in his hand.

"Why is it so bet that someone in Hogsmeade will be controlled by the Imperius Curse?"

"I don't know, maybe the Auror office has received some new clues~lightnovelpub.net~ The young wizard stood by the window, watching the outside with binoculars.

"Maybe they planted a spy with You-Know-Who."

"How is it possible, to go to the mysterious person to be a spy, do you think your life is not long enough?"

Anyway, this job is actually not bad, at least you don't need to be as busy as others. Looking at the news reported in the newspaper, the employee of the Ministry of Magic sighed, "I always feel that those guys are crazy. Now things are getting bigger and bigger. Once things can no longer be covered up, I really don't know how to end them." "

"It's not very good..."

"What?"

"I mean, this has nothing to do with us, and we should leave it to the minister to worry about." The middle-aged employee secretly raised his wand and cast a spell at his colleague.
