The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Vol 4 Chapter 10: Tom you should reflect

Hermione never imagined that eating melons could eat her own head! The conflict between Fred, George and Mrs. Weasley has an inexplicable relationship with Tom.

Just imagine, if Tom didn't buy Weasley's products in large quantities, Fred and George would not have enough income. After the setback of the "startup", they might give up the idea of ​​continuing to make funny toys and turn to Study hard.

In other words, Tom was most likely the "culprit" in that quarrel in the garden! Thinking of this, Hermione panicked. She couldn't accept the fact that the big boy she liked might be destroying other people's families.

The Weasleys are such a friendly family. Even if they only came here for a few minutes, Hermione could sense the warm atmosphere here. Shouldn't anyone who destroys this family be punished?

"Tom, is this true?" Hermione's voice trembled slightly.

Facing Hermione's question, Tom said frankly that all of this was true. He bought many products from Weasley's Witchcraft and Tricks in bulk. He was a loyal user of this small workshop, and he would be the first to launch new products. time to buy. Not only that, he is also a beta user, and will participate in the testing of the latest series of goods with the Weasley brothers.

Hermione: …

She shook her body: it turned out that Tom was not only a "buyer", he was even part of a "seller", and he was more involved than she thought!

A sense of powerlessness came over Hermione.

Members of the surrounding Weasley family had mixed reactions.

Ron's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Merlin's boxers! Tom, are you inventing with them too? Ginny said you could always hear the explosions in the room upstairs, I thought they were just Loved to hear it, didn't expect them to actually make something, it's really cool!"

As a younger brother, Ron knew nothing about his brother's invention. I can't blame the first works of Ron, Fred and George. At the beginning, they also imitated the magic toys already on the market, and made some gadgets such as dung eggs. Only recently has it begun to flex its muscles in the original field. They are still in the form of small workshops that are still unfavorable: they produce in their own bedrooms, and receive orders and sell their products through owl mail, not on a large scale. So not just from Ron, but from everyone else in the family, until Mrs Weasley opened their bedroom for cleaning...

Ginny timidly hid behind the crowd, quietly looking at this magical senior.

For her, Tom has a very high sense of existence. According to the word of mouth among the senior sisters, he and Harry Potter foiled the conspiracy of the mysterious man in the first year of school. In the second year, he was caught in the castle. The monster attacked, but he survived tenaciously - he didn't delay his studies. It is said that he completed the course of a school year in only one week, and became the first in the grade. In the third year, he made an unprecedented initiative: he studied the entire Hogwarts curriculum, but no one has done such a thing in the past 100 years. It was rumored that his rumored girlfriend Hermione also signed up for all the courses, so he followed suit, but some people said that he was looking for the mysteries of magic in a comprehensive way... Ginny herself prefers to believe the former. After the two came to the Burrow together today, Ginny felt like she had discovered some incredible gossip: Granger and Yordle were just friends? No Hogwarts ghost would believe this! She didn't believe this kind of remarks ever since the two of them summoned a strange Patronus together - this kind of talk would deceive a first-year kid.

It's unbelievable that such a person can actually mix with his naughty brothers. But does this mean that your brothers are doing something amazing? Ginny had no idea of ​​what Fred and George were doing, because the pair rarely showed off their hoax products in front of their sister—something that really wasn't for a child who was too young.

Even Tom himself did not know, he was outrageously prestigious among his first- and second-year juniors. His preferences can even influence how these people see things.

Originally, due to Mrs. Weasley's sake, Ginny's attitude towards Weasley's Magic Tricks Workshop was negative, but after learning that Tom was also interested in these prank toys, Ginny's perception of these products also changed a little. , changed from negativity to curiosity.

Bill was leaning against the wall, quietly watching what was happening in front of him. To him, it all felt like children were playing at home, and in private, without confronting his mother, he was very supportive of Fred and George. He figured that instead of spending his whole life in the Ministry of Magic, why not go out and make a fuss?

That's what he did. When he graduated that year, if he wanted to go to the Ministry of Magic, he would definitely get a very good position, but he finally chose to go to Gringotts as a spell breaker - a much lower status than a Ministry of Magic official. Maybe in the eyes of other people, you are not doing your job properly, right?

Bill felt that he was more considerate of Fred and George, and he saw his own shadow in the two brothers. Well, a weakened version of myself.

After the initial surprise, Hermione reacted.

"You should apologise to them!" She grabbed Tom's clothes lightly and said angrily, "They are not doing their jobs properly, they should have been focusing on the O.W.L.s exam, not some magic trick! You really should reflect on-"

"Reflection for what?" Tom's attitude was extremely decisive. "Reflection on how I brought them down, and on how I was tempting them like a devil to not do their jobs properly?"

Hermione froze, she really meant it, but Tom's words were too heavy, and she couldn't bear to watch Tom carry these charges.

"Many people, before they make a career, are also considered by others to be unprofessional." The words that came out of Tom's mouth, UU reading www.uukanshu. com began to bring a strong taste of chicken soup, "Have you heard of Bill Gates? He is about to become the richest man in the world, and he is a Harvard student."

Hermione: "Oh?"

"Do you think that according to the trajectory of his life, should he study hard in school and start his own career after graduation?"

"Is not it?"

In the 1990s, Bill Gates' story was not so popular, and Hermione was not so familiar with this person's experience, and naturally fell into Tom's trap.

"He dropped out. He skipped classes a lot at Harvard, didn't like to take a shower, and eventually dropped out of Harvard in 1977 to get a $10-an-hour coding job in New Mexico at his Microsoft Corporation. It has been established for two years.”

Hermione: ? ? ?

"I take him as an example, I want to tell you, Hermione, some people seem to be unprofessional, but in fact the final achievement may be amazing. Dumbledore once said that a person's origin is not important, what matters is his growth. What kind of person, let me modify it a little bit, it doesn’t matter whether a person conforms to mainstream values, what matters is what he is doing.”
