Chapter 82
Chapter 78 regular meeting
After April, the weather is getting warmer.
Hogwarts summer is no different from summers in other parts of the UK. Jon still remembers that when he was a child, he would have a period of time in the summer when he would be taken by his mother to travel and study in various places.
After all, little wizards can actually not go to Muggle schools. Only those little wizards like Harry Potter, who were raised up by relatives without their parents, will be sent to Muggle schools.
For Jon, the so-called study tour is actually an excuse his mother found for traveling.
Anyway, it’s just for fun.
But this year is not working anymore. Two days ago, my grandmother wrote and said that my mother had just given birth to a younger sister.
Jon didn’t have any opinion. He had brought his younger brother in his previous life. Children who can’t speak and move are not very troublesome, but the only problem is that Mr. Smith will definitely not have much time to help him deal with things.
Jon had also thought about this a long time ago. In such a long test, that Anthony was also a usable person. Not to mention loyalty, at least he was a person who could keep secrets.
And most of Jon’s affairs are matters of the wizarding world, and he is not afraid of revealing any secrets.
Muggle world affairs Jon played long-term cards, and he was not afraid of being seen for a while.
But without Love’s help to deal with it, his own business has changed.
Half a month ago, Jon asked Anthony to close the company he opened in Xiangjiang, turned around and returned to the United States to open a private account, and began to invest exclusively.
This part is Anthony’s profession, and you don’t need to worry about Jon, as long as you look at the income statement every month.
After all, he doesn’t know much about major events in the West. At best, he knows what industries will become popular next, and which company’s stocks will be more valuable, but they are still useless now.
The economy on the British side has begun to show signs of decline. Under the guidance of Jon, Anthony paid off the loan from the British side and put all the money on the financial markets in the Americas.
Anyway, the time is still long, so I don’t worry about saving the money. Anthony said that the money saved is equal to the money lost.
These trivial things are left to Anthony, and Jon is also very relieved.
He is still so young now, and he has no interest in money.
“Jon, you will answer this question.”
Jon, who had just lost his mind, was called by Professor Flitwick, with a dazed expression on his face.
who am I?
where am I?
What do you want me to do?
Fortunately, Stephen is really a reliable man. He quickly got a small note with the question and stuffed it on the table in front of Jon.
glanced at the question pretending to be thinking, and Jon looked up and gave his own answer.
Professor Flitwick did not say anything to this answer that was not very good but also quite satisfactory.
Jon sat down and quietly patted the back of Stephen’s hand to express his gratitude.
Naturally, no one cared about these small actions. After class was over, Jon and his three roommates left for the public study room of the Magic Research Society.
Since Ravenclaw’s “exchange students” joined the research society, Jon and the others have appeared in the public study room less often. Instead, the common gathering place of the four-person group has been transferred from the public study room to the one Jon applied for. That small classroom.
Except for Scully and Fran who often complained that Jon asked them to help organize and take the time to read those heavy and deadly books, nothing else happened.
There is no way. The two of them don’t like to study as much as Stephen. If they want to improve their grades, they can only use forced methods.
Otherwise, everyone is studying in the house. Isn’t it boring to be alone?
Because the training of the Quidditch team was temporarily suspended, Stephen’s progress in magic learning has gradually increased, and he can usually help Jon leave extra work for Fren and Scully.
Scully and Fren, whose skills are not as good as people can only be controlled by people, seem to be a little bit happy.
Today, I went to the public study room of the Research Society because the middle of each month is the day when the members of the Society make collective reports.
After several months of integration, the society has established a strict and meticulous grading system, led by the seventh grade student Ed and the sixth grade student Sophia. The points are determined according to the results submitted in the society and their own strength. At the same time According to the contribution to the society, the increase or decrease of points is assessed once a month, which can also prevent some people from only enjoying welfare and not working.
This system is of course not very perfect, but it is pretty good that a group of students can do this.
Jon and Stephen are currently the fourth-level members, Fren and Scully are fifth-level members, and the other first-year freshmen and second- and third-year students are almost all fifth-level members. The higher the level, the seats in the regular meeting. The closer you get to the podium position.
Therefore, most students stop at level three, and those with better strength can reach level two. The members of the first level are the managers of the entire research society and the preparatory managers for the next term Lavin It has been a month since Crowe’s “exchange students” joined the society. These students are also among the best in Ravenclaw’s freshmen. With their active participation, they have now won the bottom third row among the fifth-level members. Seated.
This is already a very good result.
The on-duty graders of the Research Society are all selected from the upper-grade students of the second-level members to perform shifts to check the papers submitted by the lower-level students.
These students who have inherited the integrity tradition of Hufflepuff, although they will not deliberately get stuck in the papers of Ravenclaw students, but after experiencing countless unconventional papers by students of Hufflepuff College, they also have their own Scoring standards.
So they can defeat so many five-level members who have points “deposits”, these Ravenclaw students are indeed a bit real.
The only thing that disappointed Jon was that Eddie was not among these Ravenclaw students.
It may be because of Baine, or for other reasons. In short, Eddie did not successfully join the Hufflepuff Institute of Magic Research, which made it a little difficult for Jon and Eddie to pull into the relationship.
But Jon is not in a hurry, everyone will have time to communicate in the future, so don’t be anxious at this moment.
Wait until most of the members are seated-most of the second-level members have their own affairs, many people are still doing some research of their own interest in the Hufflepuff Division outside the castle, so they did not appear at the regular meeting-Secretary General of the Society Sophia only came to the stage to announce the results of the points evaluation and welcomed the new Ravenclaw students.
After she finished speaking, Professor Sprout, who had been overdue, walked into the study room.
