Chapter 387 Drawing Big Pancakes

On the weekend morning, Albert had just arrived at the Gryffindor table to have breakfast, but he was blocked by someone led by Truman. This Hufflepuff prefect was very dissatisfied with the progress of the popularity of wizard cards, and hoped that Albert could get come up with a reasonable solution.

The copying of wizard cards is too slow, and it takes a lot of time and energy, which is far from meeting the needs of other club members. At present, many club members have complained to him about this matter.

"Before the wizard card is actually formed, I will not manufacture it on a large scale, nor do I have the equipment and energy." Albert said calmly, "If you think the speed is too slow, I suggest you find someone to help copy the wizard card. Give some money. For example, if you help copy a wizard card, for how many Nats, a set of wizard cards will only cost a few Sickles. Those senior students who have spare time should be willing to help copy and make a small amount of money .”

Truman thought about it carefully and felt that the idea was feasible.

After Truman left, Fred, who was eating sausage and frowning, complained, "This is not fair to us, the three of us have helped get so many wizard cards, and the hard work is not too much. "

"You are working for yourself, not for others." Albert looked at Fred, who was slurring his words with a sausage in his mouth, and asked, "Which boss have you ever seen pay yourself a salary?" ?”

The three of them frowned and thought about it. Although they felt that Albert's words made sense, they always felt that something was wrong.

"Right now, the wizard card has not yet been formed, and you start selling it for money. Isn't it cheating others and yourself?" Albert lowered his voice so that only a few of them could hear, "Once the reputation is bad, the club will It will be gone soon too.”

"But…"

“We will definitely make money by selling card packs, card groups and premium cards in the future. Before that, we need to build our wizard card and make it more formal, rather than focusing on the little money.”

"That's a lot of money," grumbled George.

The Wizard Card Club has a lot of members. If you need to spend money to buy Wizard Cards, you can earn a small bag of Galleons no matter what.

This is really not a small amount of money for the Weasley brothers with empty pockets.

However, after being glared at by Albert again, several people shut up obediently.

"The wizard card will bring us continuous Galleons in the future, instead of harvesting waves now and messing things up. You should take a long-term view. The wizard card will become our first job after graduating from school. Before that, we'd better perfect the rules and wizard cards thoroughly, and we also need to have a sufficient number of groups."

"I think Albert is right." Lee Jordan actually couldn't understand what Albert was saying, but he felt that Albert was willing to invest money in wizard cards after graduation, and he would never let him He was at a loss, and he had never seen Albert do a loss-making business, not to mention, he had never seen Albert lose money.

Since you don’t understand, just sneak behind those who understand, and Albert is willing to take them to play together. Lee Jordan still trusts Albert.

Fred and George looked at Lee Jordan speechlessly, but said nothing.

They do want to make money.

No way, people are going crazy.

"Those students who find someone to copy the cards will not target us even if they have complaints in the future, because we only provide free templates." Albert said mysteriously: "Besides, there is a saying... free is the best Expensive, I know you won't understand, but trust me, you will understand later."

The three of them looked at Albert in confusion, and nodded with a vague understanding.

Albert glanced at Ron who had just sat over and wanted to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"What are you talking about."

"The future development path of the Wizard Card Club." Albert didn't hide anything, and smiled and took out a notebook from the leather bag of the deformed lizard, which was about the future development blueprint of the Wizard Card.

The three of them got together to look through the notes, and soon there was an unconcealable astonishment on their faces, because they saw Albert's overall plan for the wizard card.

The current wizard card can only be regarded as just starting. Albert's goal is to have a large enough loyal supporter of the wizard card before they graduate from Hogwarts, and to completely complete the wizard card.

After they graduate from Hogwarts, they can start to take the first step.

A general promotion of wizard cards, and then selling random card packs, made the game popular in the British wizarding world.

After the wizard card is famous in the magic world, it will have its own tavern, similar to the board game shop that was stillborn in the previous life, and maintain a series of activities, and the target of Albert is the Leaky Cauldron . And the income they have will change from selling wizard cards to selling wizard cards and selling advertising space.

The last step is to franchise similar stores or open branches, but this is also the most difficult step, and it is still very far away.

It turns out that Albert's development plan for the wizard card has already been arranged. Although the three of them felt a little unbelievable, they felt that Albert would succeed. He was accumulating initial popularity. There was no doubt that Albert was doing very well, and a large number of students had already joined the Wizarding Card Club.

Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, the three admire Albert's approach.

Lee Jordan didn't look that far in the wizard card, and his goal was simply to make the wizard card popular among Hogwarts students.

The situation of Fred and George is similar. Their joke shop is also mainly Hogwarts students. However, Albert's plan for wizard cards has already involved the entire British magic world, and even the world.

Although it is suspected of turning big cakes, people really need to have a dream. If you don't even have a dream, you are no different from a salted fish.

Of course, Fred, George, and Lee Jordan didn't know that Albert's wish was not as great as they thought. He just wanted to find some friends to help him start a company, help him make money, and achieve the so-called "win-win situation". ".

With money, you can do what you want without any worries in the future.

However, this seemingly grand blueprint really shocked all three of them.

"Then what do you think our joke shop should be planned in the future?" Fred and George looked at each other, and finally planned to seek Albert's opinion.

"You can divide up and take the route of magic goods in the end." Albert thought for a while and said, "The joke shop can indeed make you a lot of money, but you need to keep in mind that most of the students are not rich."

The three of them did not speak, and continued to listen.

"It's not the joke props that make the real money, but this thing." Albert shook his protective bracelet and said, "Defense against the Dark Arts is the real money-making field."

"After the store opens, I will help you get some interesting things and expand the product category. There is no future in selling joke props." Albert reminded with a smile.

"Interesting thing? What interesting thing?" Fred couldn't help asking.

"This." Albert took out two metal cards from the deformed lizard leather bag and handed them to Fred and George.

"What is this?" Fred asked puzzled.

"Communication card."

"Communication card?" The three repeated.

"Write on it, and the writing will appear on another card." Albert noticed the puzzled gazes of the three and said with a smile, "This thing costs ten galleons."

"Ten Galleons?"

The three of them stared at the metal card dumbfounded, unable to understand why it was so expensive.

"Do you know who this thing is going to be sold to?" Albert asked with a smile.

"To whom?" Fred and George asked in unison.

"Couple?"

This time, Li Qiaodan's mind was working fast, "As long as they have this thing, they don't need to write letters to each other anymore, can they contact each other directly through the communication card?"

"I don't think they will buy it." Fred said suddenly, ten Galleons was too expensive.

"They'll copy you and make this stuff themselves."

"They can't make it." Albert shook his head and said, "This involves the advanced use of the transformation spell."

Perhaps, students who have mastered the Changing Charm can make similar things, but when communicating, both of them must be able to use the Changing Charm. More importantly, even if both parties can use the Changing Charm, can they fully present the text? It's hard to say.

"If you sell a pair, you can get 20% of it." Albert said with a smile, "There should be quite a few couples in the school. How much Galleon you can earn depends on your ability."

"Really dark."

"But...we like it."
