Chapter 202 The Lion's Big Opening
"Would you like another cup of coffee? Seeing how fast you eat, I'm afraid you'll choke if you're not careful."
Grindelwald, who carefully put away the messy dinner plate, looked at Augustus, who was a little stuffed, and asked with concern.
Facing his father's concern, Augustus also said unceremoniously.
"Let's have another cup of coffee, but instead of black coffee, let's have a latte with milk. As another old man said, drinking a cup of sweet drink after a meal can make people feel happy. "
Hearing the other party's request, Grindelwald didn't feel any surprise. He quickly cleaned up the leftovers, then quickly entered the back kitchen, and walked out with a steaming cup of drink after a while.
Putting the cup of coffee with exquisite latte art in front of Augustus, Grindelwald also found a seat for himself and sat down again, looking at the boy in front of him and asked slowly.
"Is there anything you want to know? I don't think you would have come here today if there was nothing important."
"After all, you still have important things to do, such as your final exams. You are the head of Slytherin House. Shouldn't you set an example for the students in the school?"
Facing Grindelwald's question, Augustus didn't answer right away. He looked at his latte latte coffee, looked at the pattern on it, and asked with some doubts.
"What is this flower? As for the questions you asked me, I don't think it is necessary at all. After all, my dear school has just experienced a battle."
"At the same time, that kind of exam doesn't mean much to me. I have passed the exam with all the professors in advance, and all the grades are excellent. There is no doubt about it."
Hearing Augustus's answer, Grindelwald could only nod noncommittally, but Dumbledore, who had been wiping the cup, said sadly.
"Why do people always fight? Are those powers so attractive? Thinking about how many people died in this battle, I sometimes doubt whether love exists or not."
Looking at the sad father, Augustus just wanted to comfort him, and at the same time explained to him why he did so.
But before he had time to say it, Grindelwald on the side directly pulled up Dumbledore's hand, put that hand in the palms of both hands, and looked into the other's eyes and said seriously.
"Other people's love can't be answered, but I can assure you that love does exist, between the two of us, love has and always has."
The sudden dog food made Augustus' already full stomach even more uncomfortable. The young man could only look helplessly at the two old people in front of him.
And before things got out of hand, he interrupted the affection between the two, and asked a little angrily.
"Answer my question, Dad, and what's going on in Europe recently. Don't forget your job. This is our common ideal."
"I don't think it's appropriate to entrust such a heavy burden to a child."
Facing the boy's angry words, Grindelwald just smiled very calmly, then turned to look at Augustus and said slowly.
"It's cornflower, the national flower of Germany, a flower that grows in a severe cold environment. I used to appreciate the tenacity of this flower very much."
"So from time to time, I will use it as a pattern for my latte art. As for what you just said, I can only answer you that I have retired."
"I even handed over the position of leader to you. I just want to stay here now and enjoy my personal happiness. Nothing else can attract my attention."
Faced with the other party's rogue attitude, Augustus could only feel helpless, but Augustus, who was familiar with the other party's way of speaking, could also understand the other party's purpose in doing so.
I had no choice but to take out a bundle of brand new banknotes from my backpack with great pain, push it in front of Grindelwald, and finally asked with an unhappy expression.
"These should be enough, but if you can change your business strategy a little bit, this kind of problem won't happen."
"And this problem happened to you, Dad. The quality of the dishes you cook is too high, and the raw materials you use are all five-star."
"But when you sell to those young people, it is the price of ordinary items. If you do this, no matter how good the business is, the bar will inevitably face bankruptcy."
Augustus' warning did not attract Grindelwald's attention at all. The other party just picked up the bundle of banknotes, flicked them briefly, and said with a serious face.
"Not enough. After all, my dear child does not often visit his father and mother. During this long wait, in order to ensure the safety of this bar."
"The little money you are giving now is not enough. I need at least [-] pounds of support a year. This is also my reward for working for you."
"hiss!!"
Facing Grindelwald's lion's big mouth, Dumbledore and Augustus couldn't help but gasped.
You must know that in this era, one hundred thousand pounds is enough to buy such a bar, and the other party's request is undoubtedly taking advantage of the fire.
However, Augustus, who was eager to get information, had no choice but to take out another HSBC bank card, pushed the card to Grindelwald, and asked slowly in a calm tone.
"I think this should be enough. I want to know more about the specific situation of that meeting. Although I got the minutes of that meeting."
"But regarding the specific process of that meeting, because I was dealing with some other things, I did not get a detailed report."
"At the same time, there is another matter, which is about next year's Triwizard Tournament, oh no, it should be called the Big Four Tournament."
"I want to ask how the other schools are coordinating. After all, I don't have many clues about the magic schools in Europe."
Grindelwald, who put away the bank card, smiled very satisfied, and answered Augustus's question very happily.
"Basically there is no problem. They are very satisfied with your suggestion, but I think they are more satisfied with the generous bonus."
"Each academy can send four warriors, even if they are eliminated in the first round, they can still get a bonus of five thousand gold Galleons."
"This is a fatal attraction for many people. At the same time, I want to tell you that the former principal of Durmstrang School has been killed in your war."
"So the current Durmstrang School, the principal is an acquaintance of yours, and of course one of my old friends, Ms. Wenda Rozier."
"As for France, there are no questions. Mr. Raymond will take care of everything. The only thing you need to care about is the United States. I don't have much confidence in the information there."
"The country is too big, and the relationship is complicated. The transfer of power has just been completed, and many problems are not so easy to solve."
