Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Chapter 406 Return to the Magical World

During the month that Sainz went to the East, some changes took place in the British wizarding world. After Scrimgeour became the Minister of Magic, he issued some warnings to people and published some pamphlets telling people to be wary of Death Eaters.

"For the safety of you and your family, please follow these simple safety guidelines. First, do not leave home alone. Second, be extra careful when traveling at night and try to get home before dark. Third, check your residence... Minor children need to learn to Apparate. Fourth... agree on a secret code with your family to prevent Death Eaters from using Polyjuice Potion... Fifth..."

I visited the twins first, then went to Room 85 to meet Alia.

A little gift from the Far East. "The situation seems a little pessimistic?" Saiens looked at the sparse crowd in the store. "The streets are full of wanted posters and patrolling Aurors."

"Yeah," Alia said a little depressed, "Our store had just opened, and those guys started making trouble, so no one dared to go out. There were so few people even during the day, and we happened to be doing business at night.

At night, this is the most beautiful place in Diagon Alley. Before, I didn’t know how many people would gather here after dark. Now, there is no one here before nightfall!

Can't the damn Ministry of Magic do something about it?!"

"Where are your employees?" Sainz was a little confused. "Didn't you say you were going to recruit workers?"

Alia said unhappily, "I gave them a holiday. Do you think they need employees now?"

"Well...you should also be careful. I heard that the crazy people on the wall are very hostile to wizards who are not pure-blooded."

"I know," Arya said without any hesitation, "I rarely go out of the store. Look, the fireplace is right behind me. I can go in anytime."

"That's right. There are plenty of opportunities to make money. As long as people are alive, it's fine. If you find something wrong, just retreat. Don't plan to stay and fight them."

Alia said with sparkling eyes: "I know, you have said these words many times!"

"Okay, I'm sorry for talking too much," Sainz coughed dryly, "Ahem... By the way, it seems that you don't have any brothers or sisters in your family?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"I'm wondering if I should persuade you to send your parents away."

“Is it that serious?” Arya was a little surprised. “Do you think it’s necessary?” She said worriedly. “You have the most foresight among all of us. If you think it’s necessary, I’ll listen to you.”

Sainz pondered for a moment, "It's not that serious yet, but it is possible that there will be such a need in the future. I suggest you communicate with your parents in advance so as not to be caught off guard by a sudden need to transfer."

Alia nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go home and discuss it with them in the evening."

"Well, what are you waiting for? There aren't many people here anyway. Why are you waiting here?" Sainz pointed at the last customer who hurriedly left the store. "Just close it down."

"It's too early..." Alia was a little reluctant, "There will be more people in the evening."

"Then we'll just open for two or three hours in the evening."

"Ah? Then how can we make money?"

"Have you ever calculated what the evening sales amount is?"

Alia whispered, “It currently accounts for more than 60%.

"You see, this is very telling. The efficiency at other times is too low. Staying here is a complete waste of time."

Alia disagreed, "I don't think so. I don't have anything else to do anyway."

"If you ask me, this won't work. You open the store at 7am and close it after 10pm," Sainz analyzed the pros and cons for her. "We work to have a better life, not just work in life."

"I understand everything you said, I just don't have anything else to do, so I might as well stay here."

"Well, whatever makes you happy," Sainz said preventively. "Working so long every day, you're likely to get burnout after a while. Let's make a deal, you can't quit when the time comes."

"Okay, I'm touched for nothing," Alia rolled her eyes and said jokingly, "I thought you were caring about me, but it turns out you're just worried that I'll get bored and stop working for you?"

Sainz also joked, "Of course, I'm an evil capitalist!

Forget it, no more jokes, close the door and go home, I have to go back to school to see if Professor McGonagall has any special arrangements. "

"Yeah, time flies. A new batch of students will be entering the castle soon... Hey...Hagrid is back already, do you still need to welcome the new students?"

"I guess not... I still need to go see Professor McGonagall. Okay, I'm leaving. Be safe."

"Got it. If you encounter a safety hazard, activate the emergency plan directly."

Sainz nodded stylishly, "Yeah! You did a great job! Haha!"

Alia was a little impatient with what he said, "Hurry up and go!"

Sainz came out of his shop and went straight back to school.

"Good day, Professor McGonagall. I brought you some tea from the Far East."

"Good day, Sainz, thank you." Professor McGonagall took the tin happily, "When did you come back?"

"I just came back from the airport. I went to Diagon Alley and came to see you."

"Airport?" Professor McGonagall seemed a little curious. "You took a Muggle plane to the Far East?"

"Well," Sainz said with mock excitement, "it's still fun, but there are too many people in there and the smell is not very good."

Professor McGonagall was very impressed, "Muggles have developed so fast in the past few decades."

"That's true," Sainz said bluntly, "Wizards pay too little attention to the Muggle world." Professor McGonagall's mouth twitched but she didn't say anything.

"Professor, school is about to start. Is there anything I should be aware of?"

"Hagrid is back, so let him take care of the new students," said Professor McGonagall. "However, Filch has resigned, so Hagrid is still working as a part-time administrator. But he doesn't have time to check the luggage, so someone needs to pay attention to this area."

Sainz was given the job of checking the luggage and assigning the elves to deliver the luggage, and left Professor McGonagall.

"Hi, Hagrid... Oh... Hello, Fang, Mumu, look what I brought you?"

"How are you, Sainz?" Hagrid greeted him loudly. "I heard you went to the Far East?"

"Yes, this is some tea I brought back for you from the Far East. I hope you like it."

"That's great," said Hagrid happily, "I don't have much stuff from the Far East."

"Hey, Fang, you're pulling my pants down... um... are you trying to show me something?"

Yaya and Mumu led Sainz affectionately to a corner, where there were four puppies of gradient colors, from pure black to pure white. You could tell at a glance that they were Mumu's offspring, because no matter how gradient the color was, they all had a saddle-shaped patch of yellow hair on their backs.

"Oh, great, they are both very strong." Sainz rubbed the two guys' heads hard, "Amazing!"
