Every year in June, the 0.W.LS exam was a very important exam. This exam had an important impact on the future job, and to a certain extent, it could even determine a student's future fate. In order to pass the exam, the fifth grade students had to spend this year in a nightmare.
The intense academic pressure and the fear brought about by the exam were no less terrible than the news of the resurrection of the Lord Voldemort.
The fear of being dominated by the exam would cause all sorts of situations in fifth-grade students.
The nightmare repeated year after year. George was not exaggerating.
"That's nothing. Kenneth Tolle's body was covered in boils. Do you remember?" Fred recalled, with the same smirk on his face as George.
"That's because you put a lot of baking powder in his pajamas," George said.
"Oh!" Fred said, seeming to remember, "I forgot. Sometimes it's really hard to remember, right?"
"Anyway, fifth-grade was a nightmare." George concluded, "Believe me, if you cared more about the exam results, you would become nervous and on the verge of a breakdown. Fortunately, Fred and I were in good spirits. "
"Yes, later on, how did you say, each of you passed three exams," Ron said. "That was too few, and the results weren't ideal. Percy got twelve certificates that year. When she found out about your results, Mom was furious and talked about it for the whole summer. Fortunately, the Quidditch World Cup later saved you. "
"That's right." Fred said indifferently, "But we feel that our future lies beyond academic achievements."
"Yes, before the semester started, we seriously discussed whether we should come back for seventh grade." George said with a smile, "Since we have accumulated enough money with Elwyn's help, we are ready to open a shop in Diagon Alley."
"Lady Weasley won't agree," Elwyn said, walking back just in time to hear their conversation.
"It's hard to convince my mother, but it's not absolute. At the beginning of last summer, we gave her the money we earned in the past few years, and she seemed to agree. But thanks to Percy, after he became the biggest fool in the world, Mom directly rejected our request to leave school early. " George said sarcastically, "I really don't understand. Since we already have the O.W.LS certificate, what's the use of the N.E.W.TS certificate? Are we going to become fools like Percy?"
"But since we're back, we won't waste our last year here." As Fred spoke, he looked around the auditorium with nostalgia. "We're going to use this year to do some market research and figure out what the average student at Hogwarts wants to buy from a joke shop. We're going to carefully evaluate all the results of our previous research, check every product, and then produce a product that can really meet everyone's needs and is popular."
It wasn't just a prank product. Fred and George were very talented in business. They would succeed.
If there was enough time, they could sell their products abroad and build a huge business map.
This was also the main reason why Elwyn had been working with them. He had the funds and enough magic to support the research of all kinds of new products. He could even find a sales channel in the Muggle World from his family. But there was only one problem.
He didn't want to do this kind of thing, and he didn't want to waste time on it. Even the Hogwarts Magic Newspaper relied mainly on Hermione and the house-elf to support it. Now it was almost all handed over to Lupin and other managers. Elwyn rarely interfered.
But he still needed the influence brought by business expansion. For example, the research and production of a new flying broom this time was because of this.
In this case, the daily management and operation needed someone to do it, and Fred and George were the best candidates.
"Seriously, bro, I think it's a complete waste of time for you to continue staying in school." Fred said, turning to look at Elwyn. "You should come with us to Diagon Alley. That's the stage for you to display your talents. We'll definitely achieve great things."
Elwyn had described the prospects to them, and Fred and George deeply agreed.
"You want Elwyn to go with you to Diagon Alley to open a joke shop?!" Hermione frowned at him. "I hope Elwyn can do something more promising after graduation, such as running a newspaper or entering the Ministry of Magic …"
"Oh, Hermione, you sound like your mother!" Fred said.
"Almost exactly the same!" George nodded. "You want Elwyn to become a fool like Percy?"
"Isn't it too early to study this? I haven't even thought about what I'm going to do!" Elwyn said.
He actually planned to travel around the world in search of ancient magic relics after defeating Lord Voldemort.
But this was all in the future. No one knew what would happen in the future.
"You know, I haven't passed the O.W. Ls exam yet. I still have time to think about this."
"By the way, can Elwyn take the O.W. Ls exam directly?" Hermione suddenly asked. "The ordinary wizard rank exam doesn't seem to have an age requirement."
"Others definitely can't, but it's hard to say for Elwyn!" Fred said. "Because he's Elwyn!"
"Yes, the miracle creator!" George said with a smile. "Well, the two of us have to go to class. If we go early, we might be able to sell a few telescopic ears before the herb class."
After Fred and George left, the conversation continued. Hermione seemed to want Elwyn to take the O.W. Ls exam in advance. He was strong enough anyway.
She didn't agree with most of what Fred and George said, except for one point. Elwyn really didn't need to stay in the Hogwarts according to the normal path. It was a pure waste of time. His current level was far beyond the others. In terms of actual combat ability, even the students who were about to graduate were no match for him.
If it was possible, he could take the O.W. Ls exam directly and enter the N.E.W. Ts course …
Regarding this matter, he still needed to ask Dumbledore. If the principal agreed, Elwyn didn't mind.
There was no problem in actual combat. He just needed to pay attention to theoretical knowledge.
"Do you guys think this school year is really tough? Because of those exams? "Harry said hesitantly. He seemed to be frightened by the scene described by Fred and George.
"Oh, yes, they're telling the truth." Ron said, "The O.W. Ls is really very important. It affects what jobs we can apply for in the future and so on. In the second semester of this school year, we'll also get job-hunting advice. Bill told me this. So next year, we can choose the N.E.W. subjects that we want."
"Well, do you know what you want to do after you graduate from Hogwarts?" Harry continued to ask.
This was a very important question. He had thought about it many times before.
