The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 511 Mysterious...

Today, after Catherine woke up, she sat on the dressing table.She swears she has never taken care of her looks as much as she does now.

Even when attending a ball at Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, she had never put so much effort into it.

About half a month ago, Nicholas told Catherine that a British guest would come to America to visit him. As Nicholas' heir, she needed to meet him.

Yes, heirs.

Nicholas is actually very rich, even richer than the rest of the entire family combined. The strange thing is that his relatives, friends, and even his family members don't know that Nicholas is very rich.

They only knew that Nicholas was a withdrawn alchemist.

In the American magic world, alchemists are not considered a popular profession. The threshold for alchemy is very high, and alchemy experiments are regarded as money-burning experiments by most wizards, and they are tied for the first place with potion research.

The U.S. Ministry of Magic monitors wizards very strictly. Even if some research results can be achieved, it is hard to say whether they will be useful.

Therefore, the number of alchemists in the United States is very small, and most of them are poor.

However, Nicholas is very rich.

One day, while Catherine was spending the summer on Nicholas' farm, Nicholas asked her if she wanted to be his heir.

At that time, Catherine hesitated.

Catherine is a genius with a bright future. Although she also likes alchemy, she will not bet on her future.

She never forgot that Nicholas seemed to see through her thoughts at that time, and told her that as long as she became the heir, she would never lack "Zhuoguo" in this life, and she could spend a lot of time and energy on alchemy in the future.

In the end, Catherine made an unbreakable vow with her grandfather Nicholas. It was also on that day that she knew how rich her grandfather was.

As the only wizard who sells Floo powder in America, Nicholas owns the rest of the money except for half of the profits of this unique business.

Not long ago, Catherine, who just graduated from Ilvermorny Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry, received Nicholas's first gift: a house.

One day in the future, after Nicholas dies, he will still be able to inherit most of Nicholas' estate.

Let's be honest, no one will hate this great job.

American wizards, in fact, are very realistic. They like to look up to the "Zhuo Guo". They usually rush to enter the US Ministry of Magic and have a job with a good salary.

Perhaps, this has something to do with the high cost of living in the United States.

Actually, Catherine didn't like that place.

If she enters the Ministry of Magic, her only advantage is a good-looking report card. Her starting point is not even as good as those friends who have a relationship. Her talent doesn't even help her future much.

Here, dreams are expensive.

This is also the reason why Catherine was willing to make an unbreakable oath in the first place.

She quickly fell in love with her current job, and liked the feeling of being rich, which meant that she would have enough "good pot" to support her dreams and develop her talents instead of doing nothing on the desk.

Her father, and even his family members failed to receive this honor, not only because they lacked talent, but also because as the spokesperson for American Floo fans, absolute secrecy was required.

No one else knew about it except heirs or assistants.

Catherine still remembered that when she was very young, a great event happened in the wizarding world.

The U.S. Ministry of Magic wants to find out who is selling Floo powder, because the person in charge of Floo Pom has never registered with the Ministry of Magic, so that the U.S. Department of Magic regards it as an illegal company and even seized it from Floo Pom. A house-elf trying to pry something out of its mouth.

As a result, the house-elf died.

The wizard who killed the house-elf disappeared shortly afterwards.

The Ministry of Magic believed that someone from Floom had killed the wizard, but they didn't have any evidence, or even find one.

Because no one knew who was making or supplying the floo powder, let alone a loyal house-elf.

When the wizards who were misled by the New York Ghost reported rushed into the Floom Company, they found that there was no one there.

Yep, the Floo Pom Company on Wizard Street in New York has shut itself down.

At the same time, the supply of Floo powder to the United States was also stopped.

After Floo powder is out of stock, it is difficult to buy Floo powder in the market.

As a result, the American wizards were suddenly dumbfounded.

It's a big deal.

The U.S. Ministry of Magic had to import Floo powder from abroad, but the high price made it unaffordable for many wizards.

The good deeds done by the Ministry of Magic were soon dug out, and everyone naturally understood what was going on. It turned out that you wanted to spy on other people's wealth, and in the end you drove Floom Company away.

So, everyone was scolding the Ministry of Magic.

Finally, the US Ministry of Magic bowed.

However, an apology is of no use.

The Flooper company disappeared out of thin air, as if it had never existed.

The entire U.S. Ministry of Magic was very angry at Floom's actions, but there was nothing they could do.

Later, the chairman of the Magical Congress of America took the blame and resigned, stepped down and left, and several Ministry of Magic officials involved in this matter were also fired.

However, in the following years, American wizards still could not buy Floo powder, and the Ministry of Magic had to pinch its nose and spend a lot of money to purchase it from abroad.

At this point, the Ministry of Magic all over the world knows that this extremely mysterious Floof company is not easy to mess with.

For this company, it's a big deal, I won't do your business anymore, if you have the ability, go to other countries to buy Floo powder!

It was several years later that everyone suddenly discovered that Floom Company had quietly reopened on Wizard Street in New York.

No doubt it was Nicholas' revenge against the US Ministry of Magic.

The Floof Corporation is mysterious and powerful.

This was Catherine's first impression when she heard about it.

Catherine was even more curious about the Wild Smith family, the owners of the Floom Company.

According to Nicholas' description, he only met the heir of Wild Smith a few decades ago when he officially became the heir.

After he selected Catherine as his heir, he naturally needed to meet the new heir of the Wild Smith family again to continue this ancient contract.

Nicholas actually didn't know much about the Wild Smith family.I only know that this family is very rich and attaches great importance to knowledge. Every member of the family is a genius, but they are not direct blood relatives, but are selected, and they all have the blood of the Wild Smith family.

Most importantly, not many people in the entire wizarding world know their true identities, just like no one knows Nicholas's identity.

It was a mysterious, rich family where everyone was a genius.

Although this makes Catherine feel a bit absurd, such an eccentric family has lasted for more than 700 years and has kept the family prosperous.

To be honest, Catherine really wanted to meet the legendary heir of Wild Smith to see if he was really such a great genius as the legend said.

After dressing up carefully, Catherine went downstairs to meet Nicholas.

"Are we going to the Ministry of Magic like this?" Catherine asked suspiciously.

"They'll use the international Floo network from France." Nicholas put his hand on his granddaughter's arm and apparated her near the Woolworth Building.

"It should be almost time!" Nicholas took out his pocket watch to check the time, and took his granddaughter directly into the US Ministry of Magic.

Along the way, Catherine's beauty attracted the attention of many men, and there was an endless stream of men who came to say hello and strike up a conversation with her, including her many suitors in school.
