The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter seven hundred and eighty nine behind the scenes

The Gryffindor students were in the midst of the excitement of winning the Quidditch trophy, and the common room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere as everyone was talking about the funny things that happened during the game.

However, what excited them even more was that they had won the bet.

Yes, money was won.

Still earning money from the dealers on the Slytherin side, nothing makes them more happy.

Of course, it's not really worth the money.

Only when the Gryffindor team scores the first goal, Harry successfully catches the Snitch, the Gryffindor team defeats the Slytherin team, and finally wins the Quidditch trophy, etc. It was a win, and the Slytherin dealers had to pay twice as much for it.

"How about it?"

As soon as Kenneth returned to the common room, he was surrounded by a group of people, and everyone kept asking whether Slytherin paid back the money on schedule.

"Unfortunately, they don't have as many Galleons to repay our debts for the time being, but I have already got everyone's principal back. The rest will be repaid by Slytherin before the school holiday."

"How can it be like this."

Everyone was very dissatisfied with the fact that the Slytherin students did not pay back the money they owed, and they were afraid that they would not pay it back.

"They really don't have any money to give. After all, they lost so badly. All three academies won, and they lost. Don't push too hard, give them some time." Kenneth was very understanding.

No way, the group of dealers in Slytherin really lost so badly that even if they strip their pants off, they won't pay enough.

He estimated that the Slytherin side would need to pay at least a few hundred Galleons, and at least three or forty Galleons should be distributed to the bookmakers. Kenneth doubted whether those guys would be able to pay for the money, although those People are rich, but that doesn't mean they are rich too.

"What if they don't pay back the money?" Someone still couldn't help but ask, "Slytherin students have always had a low reputation. What if they cheated and didn't pay back?"

"They don't dare." Kenneth sneered, "unless they want to be targeted by the students of the three houses, and we have signed a magical contract with Slytherin, if they don't pay before the summer vacation, will pay for it.”

"What price?" someone asked curiously.

"It's a secret for now," Kenneth said mysteriously. "If they do breach the contract, you'll find their faces very interesting next semester."

Kenneth dared to bet with the Slytherin guys with extremely bad credit. Naturally, he expected that this might happen, and he was ready to find it. Otherwise, how could he be willing to accept such an unfavorable bet?

"Speak up, speak up!" everyone urged.

"If you don't want the principal." Kenneth took out a list from his pocket and began to distribute everyone's principal.

"George, where's Albert?"

After distributing the principal in the bag, Kenneth walked towards the trio of wizards playing in the corner.

"He went out."

"Remember to help me return the Galleons to him." Kenneth put a small bag in front of George, "Twenty Galleons, oh yes, and this is your principal."

"Have you made a lot of money this time?" George took the bag, checked the Galleon inside, and asked Kenneth. He felt that the guy in front of him must have made a lot of money by taking this opportunity.

"This number." Kenneth raised his hand and shook it twice.

"100 Galleons? I thought you would make a fortune from this." George felt that he had overestimated Kenneth's greed, knowing that they also followed Albert after betting with 20 Galleons. Bert made a bet.

"If the other side loses too much and exceeds the limit they can bear, the other party might simply not pay, then we will lose a lot." Kenneth naturally considered the situation that the other party could not afford to pay.

At that time, it was not a matter of offending the students of the three colleges.

Well, it was actually Albert who warned him not to be too greedy, let alone let the people in Slytherin lose too much,

lest they pay.

In fact, most of the students just support it, and no one will really spend a lot of money to gamble. Much of the money in this bet went into the pockets of a few.

To this end, Kenneth directly tied the interests of the three academies, and also took out a magic contract to ensure that Slytherin did not dare to default.

"You are really black."

"If you think I have a bad heart, then give up the remaining twenty Galleons." Kenneth despised the three guys in front of him, and he obviously took advantage of it, so he was embarrassed to talk slander to him here.

"Why don't you bet on your own ability to win money?" Fred pouted.

The dealer on the Slytherin side was clearly arranged, but in the end they didn't know who did it. The three of them were sure that even the unlucky Kenneth didn't realize that he was pushed to the front.

Well, the contract signed by both parties has a magical effect. You can guess who provided that thing even if you think about it with your knees.

"You... earn 20 Galleons?" Ron felt a little dull in his chest.

"Yes, didn't you follow along?" George couldn't understand the expression on Ron's face, and looked at Kenneth suspiciously, who shrugged half-smile.

"What's the matter with you?" Hermione noticed Ron's strangeness.

"Nothing." Ron turned his head to look at Harry and asked, "How many Galleons did you press?"

"Ten Galleons," Harry said without hesitation, "I don't think we're going to lose, and I don't think I'm going to lose, much less."

"As expected of Harry."

"I just said it casually, what about you, I remember you seem to be betting too!" Harry looked at Ron's pale face, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

"He later gave up on his own." Kenneth's expression was quite funny, as if he wanted to laugh, but he held back.

"Why give up?" Lee Jordan was a little puzzled. He actually gave up on such a sure-fire thing?

As long as you ask around, you know that the students of the three colleges are betting on the game with the dealer on the Slytherin side, and they dare to make such a big move. Naturally, it is impossible to bet without thinking.

"Actually, I always thought that Ron had nothing to do with money." Fred said suddenly.

"I think so too." George nodded in agreement.

"Shut up." Ron glared at the twin brother angrily. In fact, he also felt that he was unlucky, why did he give up in the first place?

It seems that I heard Albert say that Slytherin students like to cheat, and if they lose the bet, they will probably cheat and not give money, so he went to tell Kenneth that he would not gamble, so as not to lose money in his pocket The money was also lost.

At this moment, the door of the common room was opened, and Albert stepped in.

"Where have you been?" George picked up the purse on the table and threw it towards Albert.

"Where is Hagrid. By the way, Hermione, you should be fine next Wednesday, take your Crookshanks to Hagrid and let the cat help him clean up the mice in the house."

"Can't you do it tomorrow?" Hermione was a little puzzled, not understanding why she chose next Wednesday.

"He needs some time to sort things out," Albert said.

As for why it is next Wednesday, it is naturally because next Wednesday is a full moon, and he is going to arrange the "cats, dogs and wolves" clearly in one breath.
