"I heard you two got your arses kicked?"
The next morning, Andy immediately called the twins, George and Fred, out, ready to discuss with them the plan to establish a magic amusement park.
Upon hearing Andy's words, the expressions of the two instantly dwindled.
George had a miserable look on his face, "In mom's mind, it's only Percy who's a good boy."
Fred imitated Molly Weasley's tone, "If you guys were half as good as Percy, Mom wouldn't have to worry."
George had an exaggerated look on his face, "O Merlin, Percy took a whole twelve courses."
"Ugh!"
At that, the twins sighed at the same time before saying in unison, "But luckily, we have Ron to keep us company, and he's a cute little brother."
Accompanying you guys to fail?
Andy looked strangely blank.
Hmm...? Percy took twelve courses?
How did he manage that?
Andy quickly discovered the blind spot.
In addition to the seven compulsory courses at Hogwarts, there would be five electives in the third year.
However, due to the time issue, several electives were scheduled in the same time slot.
By all accounts, no one could take twelve courses at the same time.
'Self-study?' Andy thought in his mind.
Without dwelling on this issue, Andy smiled and asked, "How is your research going?"
"Don't mention it!"
"All of our work was burned by Mom."
"That was our hard work for a whole year."
George and Fred each said one sentence at a time, looking at their miserable looks, it was really sad to hear and tearful to see.
Andy asked curiously, "Do you guys really want to open a joke shop?"
"Of course, that's our dream." The twins said in unison.
George asked, "Andy, what did you want to see us about?"
Fred also looked at Andy with a curious expression.
By this point in the conversation, both of them sensed that Andy seemed to have called them out for another purpose.
"To show you guys a few pictures."
Andy said as he handed George and Fred the pictures of the amusement park.
"These are pictures of a muggle amusement park," Andy explained.
Isabel had brought a magic camera with her, so these pictures were moving.
"Wow…! Are these the muggle prank products?" Fred exclaimed with an awestruck look on his face.
"I have to say, these muggles are very thoughtful. No wonder Dad likes muggle stuff so much!" George quipped.
Andy smoothly proposed his own idea, "What do you guys think, how about opening a magic amusement park?"
"With the wonder of magic, we can totally make more fun entertainment products."
"For example, magic bubbles that can wrap people up and take them flying into the sky. Or maybe magic props that can attack each other like bumper cars. We can even make games like haunted houses, adventure houses, and escape rooms."
Andy spoke his thoughts in one breath.
"I have to say, a magic amusement park ... this can be a really good idea," George said with a face full of surprise.
"To be honest, I already have quite a few ideas in mind." Fred followed.
"Except ... we don't have any money!" The two said in unison once again.
What an amazing tacit understanding!
Indeed, the amount of money needed to build an amusement park of this size was no small amount.
Whether it was Muggle pounds or the gold galleons of the wizarding world, it was not something that the Andy trio could come up with.
"The money thing can be figured out slowly. It's true that we don't have money, but we can pull others to invest!"
Andy said, "I think this kind of magic amusement park is much better than a joke shop. Many of your joke products can be used on the amusement park."
The twins looked at each other, and they were indeed a bit moved.
No matter how you looked at it, a magic amusement park was much more upscale than a joke store. And it was also true that their joke products could be used in the magic amusement park.
Andy continued to fool them, "There are fewer people in the magic world, so we don't need to build our magic amusement park as big as a muggle amusement park."
"I have the location all figured out."
"Diagon Alley is in London, so obviously it's a bit out of place. But Hogsmeade Village is a good choice, it's close to Hogwarts, and we can totally build the amusement park there."
The wizards in the British magic community were only about 10,000, and the ones who would come to play at the magic amusement park would probably only be around a few hundred or a thousand.
As long as the amusement facilities of the magic amusement park were interesting enough, it would be enough to attract them to come over and spend money.
The twins didn't immediately agree.
They seemed to be a bit out of tune, and their test scores were in the middle range of their grade, but that didn't mean that they weren't smart.
On the contrary, they were actually very smart and perceptive in observing things.
The area of the magic amusement park didn't need to be too large, and buying a piece of land in the vicinity of Hogsmeade Village wouldn't be too expensive. Including those entertainment facilities, they could also completely do it themselves.
Moreover, they were confident that their joke products would never go out of trend.
Besides, establishing a magic amusement park would not be possible until they graduated at least.
After thinking about it, George and Fred looked at each other, and it seemed that they no longer had a reason to refuse.
"Then the only problem now is ... where we're going to get that large amount of money," George asked.
Fred said bitterly, "The two of us have been selling some stuff for three whole years, and now we only have less than eight gold galleons."
Andy: "..."
It sounded miserable.
"You guys still have four years before you graduate, we can figure it out together."
Andy said, "If we really can't make any money, then we'll have to pull investments."
"Seems like that's all we can do." Fred spread his hands.
"Andy, can we have these pictures?" George asked.
"Sure." Andy smiled.
After the photos were developed, Andy and Isabel each kept two copies and sent one to Hermione.
Andy kept one for his own collection and used the other to fool George and Fred into joining.
When the magic amusement park started to make a profit, Andy's magic experiments could also officially start.
With the money, Andy could concentrate on magic.
When the twins graduated, Andy would be in sixth grade, and by that time ...
Voldemort should be resurrected!!!
Fuck!
'But that's for the future study of magic.' Andy quickly adjusted his mindset.
If it was not possible, it would be okay to build the amusement park after ending Voldemort.
If Andy already had a strong power at that time, even the Ministry of Magic and the influence of the Pureblood family didn't need to be concerned.
If you don't let me make money, I'll become the Dark Lord.
Andy had already thought about it.
After graduation, he would stay in school as a professor. While taking the dividends from the magic amusement park, and doing magic research at the same time.
Hmm...and get a wife to break the Hogwarts single curse.
