Chapter 115: Opening different shops in the mall

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

"Andromeda. Have you already prepared everything for the new shop?" Harry asked as she invited him into her home.

He have already had a few meals her, her husband and their daughter Nymphadora in here so he was already rather familiar with her house.

It was nothing spectacular. Just a simple 3 bedroom, two storey house along with a secure basement where Andromeda kept all of her more dangerous potions and ingredients.

Regardless, the whole place gave him a homely feeling that he never felt back in 4 Privit Drive. Not that he really cared about that place.

He was however, a little surprised to see Daphne sitting in the chair and drinking tea in a demure fashion. As if there was anything modest or shy in her actual personality.

"Daphne. Don't you have an exam today?" he asked because he remembered that she had said that she would attend all the exams and then fail them.

"I have. It's in about five minutes." She said with a smile that made him realize how much she was enjoying this situation.

So she was the kind of girl that enjoys breaking the rules and getting things her way.

Good to know.

At least someone in his portly little group was enjoying the exams. Even if the only enjoyable part was arriving late.

But he did not came here in order to talk with Daphne.

He came here for two things.

1. Make sure that Andromeda has all the potions and ingredients ready for when the construction of the mall was completed.

2. To talk with the transfiguration bloke who was a close friend with Ted Tonks.

It just so happened that the transfiguration bloke was already under his payroll, with Steve Jobs making sure that he could hire as many talented people that he possibly could.

In fact, this person was the one who was permanently transfiguring the body of the MP Lite and MP Pro according to his specific orders.

But the order of creating those bodies had been given to him a long time ago even before the work on the Runic Arrays had properly started.

So this man had a lot of time in his hands and with the body of those Magical Phones being so small, he was able to complete all those Permanent transfigurations in 2 months.

2 months that ended a few days ago.

And now, Steve had tasked the man to create more and more bodies for when the company will need them in the future.

But Harry needed the man for the new shop.

The doorbell rang and after a few moments, Andromeda brought another middle aged man who looked him and froze before a smile broke out on his face.

"Oh ho… To think I would meet the Saviour of the Wizarding World, Vanquisher of the dark lord and the President of our new company in my friend's home. I must say, it is an honor to meet you in person Mister Harry Potter." The mas said and gave a slight bow to him.

But Harry just shook his head at those words. "There's just empty titles Mr Berk. Nothing more. Nothing less."

The man raised an eyebrow at that before chuckling "Modest, I see. But even those titles might mean nothing to you, they mean a lot to us people who lived in the shadow of the last war, afraid of being targeted by the dark lord any day. To us people, those titles means a lot. You mean a lot."

Harry simply nodded at his words, not really wanting to continue with this conversation any longer.

"Do you know why you're here Mr Berk?" he asked.

"Because Ted called me." He replied "But with you here, I'm guessing that you told Ted to call me here. Is that correct."

"Yup." He nodded "I have heard that you worked from your home and only supplied the finished products once every two weeks. And my people didn't have your home address either so I could only ask Ted or Steve to contact you."

"And since I was coming here to have breakfast with Andromeda anyway, I thought that I might as well meet you here while I'm at it."

The man nodded at his words.

"Is there a reason why you've set up this meeting?" he asked and Harry nodded before pulling out a Trolley Bag from his Bottomless Purse.

"I want you to Permanently transfigure 150 such bags by the end of this month." He said as he passed on the bag to the man "Will you be able to do it?"

The man looked at the bag from all the sides before opening it up and checking the inside of the bag. The whole inspection took around 5 minutes during which Harry patiently watched the man.

After the inspection was completed, the man gave him a nod and said "This is a brilliant design. I can see why you would want to sell it as a product of your company."

Then he became somber and said "I will be able to complete 150 of these before the end of the man. But it'll take all of my time and I won't be able to work on the bodies of MP lite or MP Pro while I'm at it."

Harry nodded at his words "That is completely understandable."

After that formal talk, the man signed a few contracts regarding the completion of the 150 Trolley bags. There was no need to sign a non discloser agreement either because Steve already took care of it.

So after the contract was signed, Harry went and checked on Andromeda's preparations.

And with all that out of the way, they finally had their meal in peace after which, he left for the company headquarter.

Well, he did called it a headquarter but in fact, it was nothing but a larger Underground Basement where Steve and the other important figures of his company worked.

Because he would now have to tell Steve about the Trolley bags as well.

—————

The end of the term exams were halfway done and the time for the launch of the company was coming closer and closer.

This excited Harry to no end.

But with excitement came a bit of disappointment because until now, his company only has 4 shops.

Well, he would have to admit that it was not a small number of shop but Diagon Alley itself had no more than 25 shops in total.

So the opening of 4 shops in a single year was a rather huge event that might even go down in the History of the magical Britain as a record.

But he was not satisfied.

Because he wanted more for his company.

And he wanted more for the people who would become his client in the future.

He wanted to provide them with more products.

And when they left his mall, he wanted them to be content and happy.

And so, he altered his plans a little and his new plans brought him back to the little old village which the home of the Whitefang Pack

It was the second time Harry had walked into this place but the change was rather evident to him.

Unlike the first time when he mostly got glares and feared glaces, this time, the atmosphere was completely different as people now looked at him happily though a little bit of wariness still remained within them.

Well, he was the one who provided them with their jobs so he could see why they would be so accepting of him now.

And unlike last time, when had seen the outer state of their homes and had felt pity for them, he felt happy for them this time as well.

He had done something to give their people a better life.

He won't be going to heaven because of this anytime soon but he was sure that Hermione and Penelope would be proud of him and that meant something to him.

As he walked to the center of the village, a young girl came out of the large hut and beamed at him.

"Ohh Harry. You came to meet me so soon. Is there anything I could help you with." She said excitedly as she took his arm and started pulled him inside the hut/mansion with herself.

He could hear the people outside giggling and laughing at his predicament and he just sighed, wondering if coming here to meet Mera had been such a good idea at all.

"Mera. Calm down." He said in an authoritative voice, using his enhanced muscles to stop her advance and she stopped before giving him an embarrassed smile while rubbing the back of her head.

"Oops. Sorry for pulling you like that. But I was just so excited about all this. After all, ever since I failed to meet the minimum requirement in the company, all I could do was sit inside the house and watch as my packmembers went to do their daily jobs, while I just sat here and did nothing. Mama won't even allow me to become a guard. And I'm so bored. And…"

Harry closed her mouth with with a thought and she continued to mumble for a little longer before realizing that he had sealed his mouth shut before she threw a glare at him which he easily ignored.

Then he walked in the direction of the meeting room where Mia Blacktooth was waiting for him along with 4 girls and 2 boys. All of them looked rather young and he could guess that they were all probably at their late teen years.

"Hello Mia. I hope everything I going well in your pack."

"Hello Harry. And yes. The pack is prospering like never before with your help. And because of that, we've been able to persuade one more pack to lend us their people as well."

Harry nodded at her words.

He knew that the war will start sooner or later and the earlier he started to recruit people to his company, the better.

"I hope you've already been informed about the purpose of this visit." He said and she nodded.

"I know the gist of it. These 6 young people and Mera are among the ones from my pack that barely failed to meet the minimum requirement needed in order to manufacture your new product." She said.

"Yes. But they're also young and naive so you didn't want them to become guards either." He said and she nodded.

"Good good. If you people barely failed in meeting those minimum requirements set by Steve then you must be quite talented as well. And letting such talented people just sit here and do nothing does not sit right with me." He said.

"Before we start, can you tell me if these young people would do anything dangerous?" Mia asked, looking a bit worried and he shook his head before taking out a dress from his purse and passing it on to her.

"This, is what they will be doing." He said and Mia's eyes widened a little as she started studying the charmed cloth.

After a while, she nodded her head as she understood what the young kids will be doing.

"You want to open a new cloth shop. But this one will only sell enchanted muggle clothes instead of the robes and whatnot that the purebloods wear."

"Yup. That's exactly what I plan to do." He then turned to 7 late teenagers and passed a list to each of them.

These are the types of charms that you'll adding on each and every one of the cloth being sold in the shop. Have a look at it and tell if there's something you can't do.

The list was one that he personally made while keeping their charms level in mind.

The list was for every type of cloth. And each cloth will have a different kind of charm.

Like an underwear would have a special charm applied on it to make it extra soft.

The winter clothes would be charmed to stay warm.

The summer clothes would be charmed to stay cool.

The socks would have extra charms place to negate the horrible smell of sweat.

The boots will have the milder version of a the Unbreakable charm applied to their soles so that they won't rub out too quickly.

It had taken him a few days to make the whole list along and he was rather proud of his work.

But he also knew that he was not perfect and that the list would need to change and evolve once the cloth industry in his company starts to take off.

But he would leave them to the professions.

And those professionals will be none other than these 7 people who at this moment, probably didn't even knew about all the charms written in the list.

And he was proven correct when they stopped reading the note and pointed out the few charms that they didn't know.

But thankfully, all the charms that he wrote on the lists about were rather easy to learn and it won't take these talented youngsters even a week to learn.

And after that, he could start producing his own Brand of Clothes.

Author's Note:- I know the story has slowed down a bit in the past few chapters but it'll pick up speed once the holidays end and Harry goes back to Hogwarts.
