Bab 196: Chapter 196- a Hogsmeade Saturday (part 1)
GEORGE'S POV
The first Hogsmeade weekend has arrived and both of the twins were giggling with anticipation.
While most students are going to spend their time in the town, the twins, Luna and Harry are going to apparate to Wonder Alley where they would do some paperwork they can't do at school and meet with Bill and Charlie who returned to the country last week.
Of course, after that they promised they will go to the meeting their little brother and his friends are doing, maybe even convince Harry and Luna to join them.
While having breakfast and joking with Fred and Lee, George noticed Harry arriving and the smirk on his face said one thing- he did something that tipped the line between right and wrong.
George wasn't oblivious, he knew that Harry's hate toward the Potter family is enormous, and that it is clouding his judgment just like how his father's hate for Lucius Malfoy made him push to pass laws that were more then a little judgmental and biased.
George just hoped that whatever Harry did want over the top, because if it is he would have to fight for what's right, and he really didn't like his chances.
HARRY'S POV
It started as a normal Saturday.
Waking up, eating breakfast, going to Gringotts, having a goblin tell him the little bits he does wrong with his forging.
It was only when they finished for the day that Ragnok stopped him from leaving.
"I have good news and bad news." The goblin said. "The bad news is that even though you still need to improve your intent-filling blacksmithing our lessons will stop."
"What?! Why?" Harry said in shock
"That's the good news- we almost completely emptied the Potter coffins." The frown on Harry's face changed completely, in its stead a smile appeared as laughter escaped Harry's lips.
"That's great!" He exclaimed "How much is left?"
"About 300 Galleons, they don't have nothing but they aren't rich."
"So how about a lesson about what I need to improve for 290 Galleons?" Harry said
"Leaving enough to not close their bank account?" Ragnok said with a snort of laughter "Are you sure you aren't a goblin?"
Both of them kept smiling as they had a quick last lesson which was like a ceremony for the Potter vaults.
Going back to school, Harry went for his second breakfast with a smirk on his face, ready to meet his friends and go to Wonder Alley.
FRED'S POV
The paperwork both George and him had to do was much more then he would have liked.
They needed to give paychecks, look over what cards, prank items and other products need resupply and what just isn't being sold Well and of course, oversee the new place they opened- the casino.
It is amazing to see the differences between the magical world and the rest, with the separation that happened in the 14th century, while muggle products kept being inserted into their world by muggleborns bits by bits, many of their less important establishments didn't make the cut, especially with muggleborns usually not having the capital to start them.
The casino was one of them.
To have a casino you have to have a capital to start with, but in the magical world you have to have something more important- a way to make sure no one cheats.
It was in the 19th century that wizarding Poker was invented, one that is like a regular poker but with anti-cheating spells on it, yet cheating didn't stop.
Wit-sharpening potions, luck potions, Legilimency, the ways wizards continued to find ways to cheat was something that no one could stop, until now.
The door to the casino was enchanted with potions detection, each table and chair was enchanted with shielding charm to prevent anyone from not only sabotaging the other players but from affecting the table itself, and the roulette is domed with a shield to prevent any cheating.
The only way a person can cheat in this place is by learning to cheat the muggle way, something no wizard will think about except muggle-raised people, and even then, the cars are enchanted to shuffle themselves by switching enchantment, making it almost impossible to cheat, and if they catch someone counting cards, well they can kick him out.
The other thing they had to do is to check the progress of the implantation of multiple magical television in the Bar they created, which will start working as soon as they get the employers they need.
It has two parts.
The first is a two-ways mirror like device that connects all the televisions to the 'mother mirror' which will always be active so you only need to activate yours to watch the other side and the second is the 'mother mirror' will be connected to few inter-connected Omnioculars and work by always giving the best image.
Now they just need to hire people and send them to every game and have them record the game.
The only problem is that it only lets one thing to be watched, but before they start improving it they need to start make money out of it as their father told them he can't handle taking more money from them without reason, and the explanation that he works in the prototype didn't convince him at all.
All in all, it took them 3 hours to finish all the paperwork, now they can go and meet Charlie and Bill.
BILL'S POV
There is something no one tells you when you are in Hogwarts, yet everyone know it- the world isn't fair.
Some people are more talented, some are born to old money, some have nothing and some have it all.
The world isn't fair, that's a fact.
The problem is that people in this country make it even worse.
Bill saw it in his muggleborn friends, who got better grades then him yet still have hard time finding a job that they like.
He saw it in his purebloods friends who did almost nothing yet reached high places in the ministry.
Bill saw it in his father, who got a job that a muggleborn should have, yet at the same time didn't get the recognition he deserves for working hard to do the things they would have done easily with their knowledge of the muggle world.
While it was his mother's insane drivel talking about joining the ministry that made him decide to leave the country, it was that reason that made him think about it.
He could have done the brave thing.
Could have stayed and work hard about changing the world from the inside.
But for all that Gryffindor was about courage, Bill did the easy thing, he escaped.
He went to work as a curse breaker, saying he isn't afraid to jump into the scariest tombs and he really wasn't.
Bill was only afraid to stand up to his mother, to the government, stand up for what is right.
Two years later and his little brother joined him in the self-exile.
Not literally, he lived in Romania.
But still out of Britain.
His little brother that could have been a Seeker became a dragon handler, and while he seemed to enjoy it, he too didn't return home for the holidays out of shame.
They were both cowards, acting brave but never standing for their believe.
He thought 'maybe it is a Weasley thing, maybe we are all cowards trying to act brave.'
And then his twin little brothers shuttered his world view by standing up for their mother.
Starting a business while still in school? Ignoring their mother's howlers? He thought it impossible, and yet they did it.
He felt so proud reading that in the letters, yet it was only when he got a later from Emma, a friend from school, that he understood what they were doing.
Emma had to find work in the muggle world as she wasn't willing to compromise, yet even 7 years after school she still couldn't forget her dream to become a potion mistress.
The twins gave her a chance.
They hired her and let her study whenever there isn't work on the basis that she will either give them percentage when opening her own shop or join their research group.
Without making losses, without compromises, his little brothers started changing the world one muggleborn at a time.
It was about the same time that their family told them another thing- Voldemort returned to life.
Both Charlie and Bill decided that they won't be cowards this time.
They quit their jobs and moved back to Britain.
Now they just need to convince the twins they can be of help, it's time for the Weasley business to become a family thing.
CHARLIE'S POV
Seeing the twins as bosses was weird.
When talking to employs they had a certain tone in their voices, something that reminded him of Professor McGonagell and Mr Flandos, the dragon sanctuary owner.
Yet they were still mostly the same.
They joked about everything, couldn't agree who is who, and had a maniacal glint in their eyes when tossing an idea.
Oh Merlin, he missed them.
Hugging them with the same strength a hug from their mother would be, Charlie said "How are you little brothers?"
"Charlie! Bill! You're here!" One of the twins, Fred if he was not mistaken said.
"We are great! How are you?" The other twin said.
"Oh, you know, living at mom's for now so losing our minds." It was hard living in the same place as the judgmental woman that raised them, while he loves her, he wasn't sure he can deal with it.
"You wheen back home?" George said in shock. "Why?"
"Oh you know, family, girls, war and all the other things in between." Bill said with a smile.
"Sure, sure." Fred said sagely "Valid reasons, but living with mom?"
"It's temporary," Charlie explained "only until we find jobs that don't have a requirement to sell our soul to the ministry."
Charlie could see the twin got the not so hidden hint by the light in their eyes.
"You need jobs?" George said "We have a need for workers in almost everything!"
"What would you like? Working on duel cards about creatures and traps? Going to every quidditch game to film it? Working with our research team on creating the next big game? We even think about opening a Sanctuary in the future if you wait."
Both Charlie and Bill were shocked.
They could see the Alley the twins created wasn't full yet, but they actually have so many things underway?
"Can you explain more about the openings?" Bill asked and Charlie nodded.
"Sure, but we only have an hour, we promised Ron to meet him in Hogsmeade."
