Vol 2 Chapter 234: Black family wealth

Because of the full purchase of the Firebolt, Sirius received a ticket from the store owner for the Quidditch League in all competitions next year, a full set of ten, all special seats.
The Quidditch League is the abbreviation of the British and Irish Quidditch team's Super Contest, which is blocked by the 13 best teams in the magic world.
Unlike the simple confrontation between the four colleges of Hogwarts, the Quidditch alliance is a professional competition.
They have a high level of competition and face the world to collect players.
Gryffindor Quidditch captain Oliver Wood's biggest dream is to join the Pudemir United after graduation and become a professional player.
At the time of school, he always brought the latest news of the Pudmeier United team. The articles submitted to the Hogwarts Magic newspaper are all about this aspect. The new tactical analysis used by the team and so on.
Because I usually hear Wood say more, Ivan, Harry, Hermione are also looking forward to seeing what the professional league looks like.
They reviewed the schedule of next year and found that on the first day of the new year, there was a match between the Pudmer United and the Wimblen Hornets.
Because this is the first Quidditch match after Christmas, the two teams have a high voice, and there are many reasons for the Quidditch World Cup next summer. The game is very popular and it is hard to find a ticket. Fortunately, Sirius got the ticket.
After discussion, everyone decided to go to the game before going back to school, and invited the Weasley family to go.
Ai Wen walked down the stairs. These are the things that he needs to accomplish during the rest of the Christmas holiday. The most important thing is to improve his own strength.
The first floor of the Kettle Bar was a mess, and there was no Christmas atmosphere last night.
Almost overnight, this tavern has returned from a lively Christmas party to a small, dirty look that hasn't been cleaned for centuries.
However, there is no unpleasant smell in the air, but it is full of the aroma of food.
Bar owner Tom stood behind the dilapidated bar, sizzling a string of fragrant sausages, and after seeing Avon, his face showed an ugly smile.
"Good morning, Mr. Mason!"
"Good morning!" Ai Wen made a greeting.
In the far-off hall, Lupin, Sirius, and Hermione have already got up. They are sitting around a round table and eating breakfast, happily discussing something.
It seems that Ivan will come the same, they have prepared a breakfast for him.
"It’s just right, Avon, we just said you!" Seeing Ai Wen came in, Sirius waved his hand and motioned to sit beside him and said, "I just listened to Remus and Hermione." Say, are you planning to rent a house in Diagonal Lane?"
"Yes!" Ai Wen nodded. I don't know why Sirius would mention this. He took the milk that Hermione handed over and explained, "I have thought about it carefully. If I want to further expand Huo The sales and influence of the Gwaz Magic newspaper, like the "Prophet Daily", is necessary to move the newspaper headquarters to Diagonal Lane, which is also convenient for Professor Lu Ping to manage.
"Then you choose a location?" Sirius asked. "The rent in the Diagonal Lane store is not cheap, it takes a lot of gold plus!"
Ai Wen shook his head, in fact, this is his headache.
Although in the past two years, "Hogwarts Magic" advertising fees are high, Ai Wen made a lot of money, but at the same time his expenses are also very large.
Don't talk about the sponsorship costs of Fred, George, Hermione, and other wizards for magic research projects. Just pay attention to the collection of precious magic books and the purchase of potions in the Scarlet Bookstore. He has the vast majority of his income.
The money that Ai Wen can use now is around two hundred gold gallons. The money can only be selected in a remote place, but the position is not too biased.
The most frustrating thing is that he can't spend all of this money.
Ai Wen must leave part of it as a daily turnaround for newspapers, as well as the necessary magical test materials to buy, and things that need to be upgraded.
In the improvement of magic, the amount of money that needs to be spent is completely a bottomless pit.
Don't say two hundred gold gallon, that is, give him two thousand gold gallon, not enough for him.
Ai Wen sighed, no matter which angle he looked at, he had to find a project that could make money for a long time and make a lot of money.
Although the operation of newspapers can be profitable, it is far from enough. The main reason for operating newspapers is to enhance influence and control public opinion. It is secondary to making money.
Moreover, the income of the "Hogwarts Magic" has reached the bottleneck, and it is difficult to have a big improvement in a short time.
As for the viable profitable projects, Ai Wen currently only knows one.
That is the Weasley prank product developed by Fred and George, and they are very popular with other wizards. If you don't have an accident, you can even become the biggest prank product brand in the magic world. Making money is not a problem.
The problem now is that if you want to realize all the ideas in their heads and open up the market, you still need a large amount of Jin Jialong to invest in the early stage.
Ai Wen didn't have the money, Fred and George were even less likely to have it. All of their previous research and development expenses were almost sponsored by Ai Wen.
Also, if you want to open a joke shop, you also need to rent a shop in Diagonal Lane.
All the problems have returned to the original point. They don’t have enough money at the right place in Diagonal Lane to rent a suitable store.
The Weasley joke shop was put back, but the newspaper headquarters was imminent and must be resolved during the Christmas holidays and could not be delayed until next summer.
Ai Wen calculated that a location is not too remote shop, according to the surrounding situation and the flow of people, the annual rent is about three hundred Jinjialong to five hundred Jin Jialong.
This means that he must at least find a way to get two hundred gold gallon.
Ai Wen is ready to determine the specific store first, and the money on hand can be used as rent. If there is no way at the end, in his personal collection, there are many precious magic books and some refining potions that can be sold first.
However, it is not a last resort, and Irving will not do this.
He was thinking of getting two hundred gold gallon methods quickly. Even if he reached out and asked for his family, his parents would not give him so much money at once.
I just want to borrow money, and I can’t borrow it.
Whether it is the Weasleys or Lupin, Harry, Hermione, and the people around Ai Wen, the economic level is relatively average, and can even be called difficult unless
Ai Wen suddenly thought of Sirius. Although he was detained in Azkaban for 12 years, as the sole heir to the noble and oldest Black family, he still has amazing wealth that ordinary people can hardly imagine.
From the fact that he casually bought a fire arrow for Harry as a Christmas gift, he can see it. He is not bad at all. A few hundred gold gallons are not a problem.
Ai Wen’s eyes were bright, and he had not waited for him to open his mouth, and he heard Sirius continue to say.
"I can help you with regard to the house. If I remember correctly, the Black family has several shops in Diagonal Lane, which is the legacy of the ancestors. If you need it, you can use it at any time." Sirius does not care. Saying, "If you are still there, you are still idle. If you rent out, I don't have time to manage or collect rent."
When he heard Sirius, Ai Wen suddenly stopped. He just raised the idea. The other party has already raised this matter. Obviously, there is already a plan for this. He just said that he and Lu Ping and Hermione This is the matter.
Evan hurriedly thanked Sirius, but the other party said that these things don't have to be in the heart.
In Sirius's view, compared to the things that Aiwen helped himself to do, the little busyness of providing several stores is nothing.
Because time is too long, Sirius can't remember the exact number and location of the store.
When Harry arrived, they discussed it for a while and decided to go to the Black family in the treasury of Gringotts after the breakfast and look for those deeds.
For the Black House treasury, Ai Wen is also very curious, he wants to see how amazing the wealth accumulated by this pure blood family in the past thousand years. (To be continued.)
