Report

"There's no special meaning."

The magical melody echoed in Jon's mind, and he couldn't help but smile. "The magic castle where the fairies live, that's the name."

It was rare to hear such an interesting explanation from Jon, and Helga was a little happy to be praised.

"Okay, then it's settled. How about coming to the castle in three days for a test?"

Jon nodded. "Of course."

After getting an accurate answer, Helga's consciousness retreated from the portrait.

Jon watched Helga leave, and then looked down at the calendar in his hand.

"Three days later, I can do something else in these two days."

Jon flipped through his notes and found an entry with a key symbol.

"But it involves a lot of money, so I really have to talk to father about this."

Using the air network to return home to Greenwich, Jon went upstairs to his room and took out a deposit certificate. It was his pocket money since childhood and the money he saved every year, but this money was naturally far from enough.

The purpose of his visit today was mainly to borrow some money from his father.

The amount was not too much. Jon only needed to inject 50,000 pounds in the first phase of his plan, and his savings were more than 40,000 pounds. Mr. Smith only needed to help him make up the change.

But Jon's idea required Mr. Smith to do it. He was still a child, and there were some occasions where he could not enter and leave at will.

Of course, he also needed some other way. Mr. Smith's social status was still too conspicuous, and he was not professional enough.

"Headhunter? Why are you looking for those people? "

In the office of the University of Greenwich, Mr. Smith was writing a report in his hand while looking at his son who suddenly appeared. His eyes were full of confusion.

Even though he had long accepted that his son was precocious, Jon's behavior still surprised him a little.

It used to be okay, but after Jon came back from Hogwarts, he didn't know if it was because he hadn't seen him for too long, but this kind of shock had increased by leaps and bounds.

"Of course, I have my own reasons. Anyway, you can help me settle it. When the time comes, you will naturally understand."

Jon didn't know how to explain this to his father. After all, the British economy hadn't had any major problems yet. If he said it, it would only be regarded as an alarmist.

"Forget it, do as you wish."

Lov rubbed Jon's hair and dialed a number.

Jon sat on the sofa obediently and cutely, looking very young and harmless.

It wasn't the first time that he had come to Mr. Smith's office, but it was the first time that he had watched Lov deal with things here.

Speaking of which, it was Jon who came up with the idea of finding a headhunter in Lov's office.

As a professor, Lov had a good income and social status. He could even enter some of the upper class circles. However, he wasn't enough to become a client of the headhunters.

The main reason was that there were indeed many talents in the university, and these talents were exactly what the headhunting company needed. Therefore, correspondingly, there were more connections between the two parties.

The headhunters wouldn't let go of any job that might be profitable, unless the risk was too big for them to bear.

But there was a saying that as long as the profit was big enough, the businessman would gamble everything.

Jon didn't lack money, but he needed a lot of money.

Not to mention other things, his magic research, to some extent, was the product of a collaboration between a very advanced idea and the oldest witch in the magic world.

No matter how one looked at it, this kind of research was burning money.

Gold coins were money, so were pounds, dollars, rubles, and marks. As long as it was money, it was resources.

In the world, not only the magic world produced resources, but most of the resources were still in the world controlled by ordinary people.

The financial system of the Wizard world was very old, but under the condition that they didn't have a problem in maintaining their lives, most of the Wizards didn't have a high demand for money. That was why the financial system built and implemented by the Goblins could operate safely until now. The main reason was that most of the Wizard didn't have a need for money. The Weasley family had too many children, and most importantly, most of the Wizard didn't have a habit of managing money.

They would only put things in the vault of Gringotts, and there was no interest.

This was a good point for the Wizard. They didn't charge any service fee and they could have the most complete security system. The safety of the treasures in the vault was much more important than the lack of interest.

That was why Jon wasn't interested in the economy of the British Wizard world or even the western magic world.

Those Goblins of Gringotts only had eyes for gold and treasures. Other than the land, there was nothing in the Muggle world that could move them.

Because of the Goblins, the entire western Wizard world's financial system was self-contained. As long as there wasn't any major war, then the economic fluctuations of the Muggle world wouldn't be a threat to the Wizard world.

This way, no matter how fierce the war outside was, it wouldn't affect the Wizard world. After an economic war, the Muggle world's economy could be regressed by more than a decade, but to the magic world, it was only a month's worth of change.

This was something that Jon had only thought of recently. He had some doubts about this problem in the past. Logically speaking, the sniping of the pound sterling had a huge impact on the British, but it wasn't reflected in the book.

There were many explanations, but the most reasonable one was that although the Wizard world existed outside the human world, except for the environment and the constant appearance of the little wizard Muggle, there wasn't much connection between the two.

After all, if the financial system wasn't on the same level, then there was basically no connection between the two societies.

The world of magic and the world of science, in Jon's view, both worlds had their own strengths. But in the end, the ultimate goal of both worlds was the same.

As a part of the "human" community, the western Wizard studied magic, the eastern "Wizard" studied the rules, and the world's ordinary people studied science.

There was no high or low path, but the speed of development was fast and slow.

According to Jon's own thoughts, at present, the western magic world was stagnant because of the past, and the development of science was obviously faster.

Jon's own thoughts, of course, were more inclined to the side that developed faster. However, he was now a person of the magic world, and it was difficult to continue to stay in the Muggle world.

In the face of a world that was destined to become more and more unsuitable, it was difficult to forcibly integrate, so it was better to be straightforward.

Jon planned to use what he knew to do a big job, and then return to the magic world to do his research.
