Dumbledore's letter made Jon worried.
There was always an ominous premonition hovering in his mind, as if he was about to be sold off. He was afraid that Jon would accidentally fall into a trap.
It was as if he was being watched by some terrible dark force.
"What's going on," Jon pulled at his hair, "Dumbledore and I have only met … twice? What is it that is worth Dumbledore's attention? "
"Is there always a little? For example, Master, with your handsome appearance, who wouldn't be moved by it? "
"If you don't know how to talk, I suggest you shut up."
Jon rolled his eyes at Kalidi, causing the little Elf to swallow back his words.
No matter what Dumbledore was, he was not someone he and his little Elf could casually talk about.
Especially when it came to such a private matter, who knew if Dumbledore would know?
It didn't matter before, but now the times were different. He wanted more and wanted to do more, so he had to be more careful.
Helga was sleeping now, so he could not be as unscrupulous as before. Although it was not life-threatening, disturbing Helga's sleep would make things more serious.
"Master, that's not what I meant, you know."
After all, such a thing had just happened at home, so Kalidi thought that he had touched on Jon's sore spot.
He never thought that he and Jon were thinking about completely different things.
"After I leave, don't stay idle at home."
Jon felt that he couldn't just sit there and do nothing, but after thinking about it, he didn't have any good choice except for Kalidi.
There were too few people he could use in the Wizard World. Without Helga and his grandmother's connections, there were not many people he could use.
Of course, this was also related to the current situation of the Wizard World. At his level, he couldn't come into contact with the Wizard World that was too powerful, and the Wizard World's survival ability gave them the freedom to decide what they wanted to do.
If it wasn't for the fact that Wizards generally didn't have to worry about survival, there wouldn't be so many Black Wizards who followed Voldemort who wanted to destroy the current Wizard World for their own dreams.
This kind of mentally retarded behavior was not something that a normal person who had experienced the brutal beating of human society would do.
Of course, Jon admitted that it was easy to make money in troubled times. He himself was a loyal supporter of the theory of making money in troubled times. His company had also carried out the first wave of capital accumulation in this way.
But this kind of accumulation didn't happen in Jon's environment.
In other words, Jon was a more cautious person. He preferred to stir up trouble thousands of miles away. Of course, he did not have the ability to devise strategies like Zhuge Liang. Jon just liked to stir up trouble in a safe life.
Ah, such a description was a little too harsh. How should he describe it …
Jon really couldn't think of a better word to describe his condition than stirring up trouble.
This was a wonderful ability that he had trained under Helga. He had to admit that although Helga had only taught him for a year, it had a great impact on him.
In the past, Helga had hoped that he would become a person who moved forward bravely. This was actually a very good expectation, and Jon himself also admitted that.
But moving forward bravely didn't mean that he would rush forward recklessly. Gryffindor was a legendary Wizard. He could cut through mountains and seas with his sword, but Jon couldn't do that at all.
Even in the world where individual strength was the most popular, one who only knew how to act recklessly would still be at a disadvantage, okay?
Helga's coercion was indeed effective. Back then, Jon and Joanne said a lot of things, and only one of them was true.
After killing the Black Wizard, his whole person began to distort.
It wasn't the kind of distortion that grew crooked, but a change in mentality.
In order to achieve something, must one become a wise and great leader?
No, one could also become an excellent mastermind behind the scenes.
Was reputation important?
Of course.
Reputation was always a very important thing in this world. This thing represented one's influence on the people around them.
Just look at Helga and Dumbledore. If they didn't have reputation, they wouldn't have been able to leave such a great reputation in the current Wizard World. Or look at Grindelwald and Voldemort. Without reputation, they wouldn't have been able to gather such a huge team of Wizards.
Who didn't have a belief?
There were a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people's hearts. The most convenient way to get others to agree with your understanding of something or something was through reputation.
But it was too early to start managing reputation now. The words "half bad and half bad" were not fabricated out of thin air. As long as one was a person, there would be controversy, not to mention that one was a celebrity.
Jon had seen too many examples like this.
Let's not talk about celebrities, businessmen, politicians. There were many people around him.
Harry Potter was famous enough, the boy who had survived a great calamity and defeated Voldemort. But when he really appeared in front of the wizards, his reputation was no longer as pure and flawless as it was before.
The sinister nature of a person's heart was unpredictable.
So Jon didn't like the bravery that Helga liked, which had always been exclusive to Gryffindor people. Of course, he also looked down on the Slythrin people who only knew how to play tricks on their own people.
In Jon's opinion, in order to show off in front of people and gain the respect of the public, there was the possibility of risking one's life. It was not worth it.
Something like face couldn't be eaten. Too much vanity was not a good thing at all.
There was nothing in this world that could be solved with face. You had to have real ability. Even if you wanted to make friends, you couldn't do it in a high-profile manner.
Compared to the success of ten years of hard work, he preferred to make small profits with quick turnover. He could plant a little seed today and reap a garden tomorrow. Small favors would not cause any negative effects. Even if others said that he was using small favors to buy people's hearts, it did not matter. Sometimes, if one wanted to do things well, what was the point of having a reputation?
Anyway, there were only so many people in the Wizard World. If something really happened, all he had to do was find a reputable person to explain it to.
Moreover, the things that Jon did were usually more secretive, and generally, they wouldn't be noticed by anyone.
With the way the European Wizard behaved, they wouldn't even be able to put down their pride and talk to the Elves normally, let alone notice such a small thing.
