Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Chapter 423: "Calculating" Adam

"Are these all books? There must be more than a hundred books. How did they get so many books back?" Ben complained while helping Sainz sort the packages.

"It's definitely not something the owl carried back directly!"

Ben complained speechlessly, "Need I tell you, where's your briefcase? Put it in there."

The books in the package were big and small, some were single books, and some were put together to ensure that the owl could lift them. Some books were very large, and just one book would require two or even several owls to lift together.

These packages came from the other side of the ocean in the same way as ordinary items, by ship. After arriving at the shore, they were taken to the Hogsmeade Post Office by wizards in the post office, and finally delivered by owl messengers.

As Sainz was sorting packages, he felt the gazes from the students' tables, some eager, some hostile.

The eagerness came from Hermione, the hostility came from Crabbe and Malfoy.

He raised his head and looked down. Crabbe and Malfoy looked away hurriedly. Hermione's gaze became more intense. She seemed to want to get up, but was held back by the two men next to her. Sainz's ears were sensitive enough to hear their words clearly.

Ron said, "What are you going to do? Class is about to start. We should go."

"But," Hermione said persistently, "don't you see, the shapes of those packages mean there must be books inside, maybe books we've never seen before."

"God," Ron wailed in despair, "you've seen enough!"

Hermione said stubbornly, "Obviously not as much as Saens!"

"Please spare me," Ron seemed to be praying, "That's Sainz, why do you want to compete with him!?"

His words obviously offended Hermione, and she turned her face away angrily.

"What's wrong, Harry?" Ron looked confused. "What did I say? Why is she angry again?"

Harry shrugged. "Hermione, you really don't have time to visit Sainz now. However, I don't think he ordered so many books by mail to give them away. They won't run away... If... I mean if... If you want, I think it would be better to visit Sainz after class."

Harry's words worked. Hermione quickly finished her breakfast, pulled the two of them and left. Ron stumbled as he was pulled. "Hey! My pie!"

Before Adam set out, Sainz gave him 2,000 Galleons as a purchasing fund. He spent more than 600 Galleons on this trip alone, but it was all worth it.

Sainz wrote a letter back to Adam, asking him to collect rare books when he saw them and not to be stingy with money.

Back in the office, I unpacked all the packages, which contained a complete set of current textbooks for Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, as well as some local books.

nice!

Sai finally embarked on the path he had always wanted to take - collecting knowledge.

At that moment, he had an idea, "No, open a bookstore?"

It would take a long time to collect books by purchasing them individually. It is more convenient to have a book company.

"Oh, why bother opening one? Wouldn't it be better to just buy one?"

To open a new book company you have to start from scratch. Wouldn’t it be better to directly acquire a publishing house or bookstore, which would also give you the channels?

"It seems that we need to cultivate Adam's interest in reading."

You need people to start a company, and it is not as easy to use other people as your own friends. Adam is now traveling around the world, and I will increase my own investment. I would like to ask him to help collect books.

After this happens many times, two situations are likely to occur. One is that Adam will hate books from then on and vomit at the mention of them. If this is the case, forget about it. At the same time, another situation is likely to occur. Adam will be infected by Sai's enthusiasm and start to be interested in why he is so keen on collecting books.

If Adam was infected by his interest and also became interested in books, then when Sai proposed to open a bookstore, he would most likely also invest in it and eventually become Sai's partner like Alia.

Hey!

"Well, how can I increase the importance of books in Adam's heart?" Sainz thought to himself, "If I want to arouse people's interest, at least I have to let them benefit from it."

Adam is not Hermione. If you tell him that "the knowledge in books is useful, and reading more books is good for you," he may agree to your face, but he will turn his head and throw it aside. It is unrealistic to expect him to fall in love with books by this.

Since you are not interested in the books themselves, would you be interested in the added value of the books?

There is a saying that goes, "Books contain beautiful women, books contain golden houses, and books contain thousands of bushels of chestnuts." If this concept is instilled in him, I wonder if Adam can withstand it?

It’s time to compile…collect a few examples of people who became CEOs, married beautiful and wealthy women, and reached the pinnacle of life by reselling books.

Oh, and there's Katie Bell, Adam's girlfriend.

Adam is traveling, and as a brother, I should show a little concern... ahem... but I have to find the right limit... I can't let my brother misunderstand.

Like Fawcett, Bell will also graduate next year. As a professor and a good friend of Adam, it is not wrong for Sainz to pay attention to the employment intentions of his brothers' families.

You don't have to think too much, you just need to make the employment prospects of a certain industry clear.

Just like when people come to a fork in the road, the conditions of the other roads are not very clear, but the condition of one of the roads is very clear. Even if this road does not seem to be the best, people are likely to choose this one.

If Sai had inadvertently analyzed the prospects of the bookstore clearly enough, Bell would most likely choose a related industry when he finds a job in the future.

If his girlfriend chooses a related industry, Adam’s likelihood of choosing a related industry will also increase.

As long as Adam does not have a deep hatred for books, there is a very high possibility that Sai's proposal to open a bookstore in partnership with him in the future will be accepted.

"It seems that 2,000 Galleons is too little for the purchase. We must add more. We must add a lot more. Let's add 10,000 first to test the waters!"

Sai smiled evilly and teased in his heart, "Adam, I'm not plotting against you maliciously. You always have to work. It doesn't matter what you do. It's possible that you can find a job that you really like!

Besides, even if you really like a line of work at the beginning, after doing it as a job for a long time, how many people can still have the initial enthusiasm?

If you can handle all of Sai's tricks, I'll have nothing to say. If you are influenced by me and start to love book dealing, I'll make you rich."

After all, Sainz's "plan" was not to deal with the enemy, so naturally there would not be any disgusting moves. The whole process was guided by the situation, and Adam had every right to refuse.

Moreover, if Adam was really willing to help him collect books, it would be easy for Sai to make him rich.

Sai would never mistreat his friends financially.

After class, Sainz called Bell and asked, "Did you also receive a letter from Adam yesterday?"

Bell smiled happily, "Yes, there is a postcard in the letter."

"That's great! Adam may soon be able to choose his career," Sainz said with a smile, "and you, Katie, what kind of job do you want to do in the future?"

Katie Bell said a little uncertainly, "Maybe I will share the same principles as Angelina... But... I heard that the requirements of professional teams are very strict... Even Angelina was rejected. I'm a little unsure. Do you have any suggestions?"

"I see. I think my suggestions are definitely good, but I can tell you about the current situation of various industries for your reference..."

Sainz thought evilly in his heart, "Sorry brother, Sainz is so despicable!"
