Chapter 785 Employment Counseling
"The three of you wait outside first, and it will be your turn when I finish chatting with Albert." After Professor McGonagall signaled the three of them to go out, he pointed to the armchair next to him and asked Albert to sit down and talk: " Let's talk about your career ideas, which can help you decide what subjects to study further into Years 6 and 7."
Albert frowned slightly, as if he was seriously thinking about what Professor McGonagall said.
"Have you ever wondered what you're going to do after Hogwarts?"
"Not yet." Albert shook his head and said, "However, I should write a book first after graduation."
"Published a book?" Professor McGonagall was very surprised, but before she had time to continue, she heard Albert say, "Although "Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Defense" is very good, it is very important for Hogwarts students. It’s not enough just to learn what’s inside.”
"So, are you planning to write a book in the field of Defense Against the Dark Arts?" Professor McGonagall was taken aback by his own thoughts.
"Yes, the content of "Dark Forces: Self-Defense Guide" is very extensive, but it is only suitable for getting started, but it is not practical. The field of defense against the black arts should pay more attention to practicality." Albert thought for a while and said: "In In the near future, people in the wizarding world need a more practical Defense Against the Dark Arts book to strengthen their awareness of self-protection."
As he spoke, Albert took out the folder from the deformed lizard skin bag and handed it to Professor McGonagall.
"This is it?" Professor McGonagall took the folder, looked through the contents, and fell silent for a moment.
The words are really not just words, Albert is already doing it. She even doubted that the book would be finished and published before Albert graduated.
Professor McGonagall opened his mouth, and finally couldn't help asking: "Have you considered entering the Ministry of Magic? I believe that with your grades and connections, you will be able to become the Minister of Magic in less than twenty years."
"I haven't thought about it, and I don't want to enter the Ministry of Magic. I don't feel very good there." Albert shook his head and said: "Maybe, I will open a store, or become a fortune teller. I heard that the prophet He is well respected in the wizarding world."
"People who can really predict the future are indeed very respected by everyone, but there are really very few such wizards." Professor McGonagall kindly reminded: "Most fortune-tellers are not doing very well, maybe you already know gone."
"I know." Albert said calmly: "But a real prophet never worries about these issues. By the way, the next headmaster of Hogwarts is Professor Snape. If a certain pink toad doesn't count if."
"Is this...a prophecy?" Professor McGonagall was taken aback when he heard this, and looked at Albert suspiciously.
"Yes." Albert nodded and said, "In a few days, the magic world will usher in unexpected surprises. Perhaps, you can look forward to it."
"Well, I think the o.w.ls certificate and the N.E.w.Ts certificate are not worth mentioning to you." Professor McGonagall suddenly felt that he had done something stupid just now, and Albert didn't need her at all. For employment consultation, he has already planned his life, and he doesn't need others to worry about it.
"If you want to be a potions professor that day, Hogwarts will definitely welcome you." Professor McGonagall said with a smile, "When you go out, help me call Fred in."
Albert was slightly taken aback, nodded and said, "I will seriously consider it."
Looking at the back of Albert leaving, Professor McGonagall frowned. If Snape becomes the headmaster, what about Dumbledore?
Also, what does the pink toad refer to? "
Just as Professor McGonagall was thinking about what Albert wanted to express, Fred had already opened the door and walked in.
"Sit down, Weasley." Professor McGonagall repeated what he had just said to Albert: "Let's talk about your thoughts on your future career, which can better help you decide to enter the sixth and seventh grades what subjects to study afterward. Have you thought about what you would do after leaving Hogwarts?"
"Of course there is a professor. I plan to open a joke store, a joke store that can bring joy to everyone. Well, a store like Zuko's joke store." Fred said.
Professor McGonagall opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.
"You're going to open a joke shop."
"Yes, we are already preparing, and we should be able to open a store immediately after graduation." Fred was very confident, and it didn't look like bragging, but it seemed that he had already made preparations.
"you?"
Professor McGonagall feels that there seems to be something wrong with today's employment consultation. Fred has a clear goal, and he also said that he will open a shop after he is employed.
"to us."
"Mr. Weasley, I have to remind you that a start-up capital is needed to open a store." Professor McGonagall actually didn't want to hit Fred, let alone wait for Fred to get ready to open a store, only to find that Gallen in his pocket didn't Not enough for him to open a shop.
"Also, if you want to open a joke shop, I think you should spend some time on the five main subjects. After all, making those joke props requires sufficient knowledge as a basis to realize the idea."
"Regarding this, please don't worry, we have raised enough start-up funds, and Albert will provide us with intellectual support." Fred said confidently, "He is very supportive of us and thinks that starting a business Joke shops make money."
"this…"
Professor McGonagall thought he knew where Fred's start-up capital came from.
"Well, since you already have your own plan, I won't say much. Mr. Anderson's vision is still trustworthy, but I still suggest that you spend more time on the main subjects, especially in the field of spells. It's never wrong to improve yourself now, and Mr Anderson has been doing that."
"I will be the professor," Fred said.
"Call George in for me after you get out."
It can only be said that they are indeed twins. George and Fred's answers are basically the same.
Professor McGonagall looked at the back of George's departure, and was considering whether to continue the employment consultation. He wondered if Lee Jordan would be like this later?
"What do you want to do after graduating from Hogwarts?" Lee Jordan frowned and said, "I will probably open a wizard brand store."
"Wizard card?" Professor McGonagall was taken aback. Of course she knew what a wizard card was. Isn't this the club established by the four of them? It is said that this game was invented by Albert.
"Yes, the wizard card." Lee Jordan nodded and said, "Ebert thinks this card is very promising and will be separated from the joke shop, and I like it very much, and hope to make the wizard card popular all over the world." The world of magic. In fact, the professor should have noticed that the wizard card can not only bring joy and quietness to everyone, but also unite the relationship between the students in the school and effectively enhance their knowledge of magic..."
What Li Qiaodan said made Professor McGonagall a little dizzy, but she finally understood what was going on. The feeling was that Albert took a few people out to open a shop.
No wonder they are all so confident.
Is Albert good?
Of course it's amazing. They have already arranged things before they graduated. From their tone, she wouldn't be surprised even if the three of them took out a folder to show her.
(There really is such a thing)
As for where Garen, who opened the store, came from, Albert had already won two awards, so he already had no shortage of start-up capital.
