    Dumbledore looked at Kewen very gently at this time. He wanted to say something thankful or praised several times, but he felt that it was inappropriate to say anything.

    For a time, Dumbledore realized that it was difficult for him to continue to evaluate Kewen's actions.

    "Oh right." Kewen didn't know what was going on in Dumbledore's mind, so he said, "And the patent bonus you mentioned, I don't plan to ask for it either, so let's donate it to the academy."

    "Why!?"

    Hearing this, Dumbledore almost exclaimed loudly, his eyes widened in astonishment.

    Kewen smiled and explained: "I once asked Professor McGonagall about the management of our college.

    So I think, instead of accepting funding from those school directors and being constrained by them, it is better for us to use the steady stream of patent fees to run the school ourselves in the future. "

    Cowan obviously hadn't finished speaking, but even so, Dumbledore was completely stunned there.

    After a long while, Dumbledore was sluggish and regained his senses. He took a deep breath and said tiredly because of the shock: "The academy cannot accept your money, and even if it does, it will be used by many people. The school directors are divided, after all, the academy belongs to them in principle."

    Kewen thought about it and found that it was right. If the patent money was donated to the college, it would be the school directors who would get the money.

    After all, Dumbledore is just a dean, and the real owners of Hogwarts are actually the school directors.

    But Kewen still tried to ask: "So, Mr. Principal, is it possible to spend money to buy a seat on the school board?"

    "Impossible." Dumbledore shook his head and explained softly: "The identity of the school director is a status symbol, and all school directors are from ancient families."

    "What if the funds are very large?" Kewen continued to ask.

    Hearing this, Dumbledore chuckled, he was very happy that Kewen had such kindness towards the Academy, so Dumbledore explained patiently: "If you publish papers and patents, you will indeed get a huge amount of money. Galleon, but that wasn't enough to impress any of the school administrators' families."

    "And..." Dumbledore added: "The fees incurred by patents belong to a long stream of water, and the first fee you can get may not be as much as you think."

    After Kewen heard the words, instead of flinching, he raised his hand and rubbed his chin in thought.

    Dumbledore didn't bother seeing this, because Cowen's performance today was enough for Dumbledore to respond with enough patience and doting.

    After a while, Kewen finally regained his senses, and asked again with a deliberate tone: "Mr. Principal, what if... the number of Jin Galleons is 100 million?"

    "I'm sorry...I didn't hear..." Dumbledore was stunned again.

    "I mean, 100 million gold Galleons." Kewen said with slightly shining eyes: "Can you buy back the seat of the school board at this price?"

    Dumbledore opened and closed his mouth, and after a while, he succeeded in making a sound: "The price is indeed acceptable... But Kewen, things are not as simple as you think."

    Seeing Kewen's puzzled look, Dumbledore sighed slightly, and then said softly: "Those school directors are necessary because their families are very influential and can solve many problems for the academy."

    "So it is!" Kewen finally understood the key point.

    However, Kewen felt a little regretful, because next year will be 1991, which is the time when the United Nations in the East will disintegrate.

    If you can participate, it is too easy to make money.

    This topic ends here.

    Next, Principal Dumbledore gave Kewen a bracelet, and seriously told Kewen not to take off the bracelet no matter what he did after leaving school.

    This bracelet is the 'door key' made by Professor Flitwick for Kewen, which allows people to instantly teleport to other places.

    After explaining the situation of the 'door key' to Cowen, Dumbledore took out another contract.

    It was a land deed. As long as Kewen signed it, the land deed and the house on it belonged to Kewen.

    Dumbledore continued to explain patiently, because he was afraid that Cowan would encounter danger after leaving school, so he prepared such a safe house for Cowan.

    The reason why it is called a safe house is that the house on the title deed will be subject to the 'Bold Loyalty Charm' in the future, and no one other than the owner and the secrecy will be able to discover that house.

    Dumbledore did not choose himself to be Kewen's secret keeper, nor did he choose the four branch deans. Instead, Cowen went to the kitchen to find a house-elf, who would be the keeper of the house.

    From Dumbledore's point of view, house-elves are the most suitable candidates for keeping secrets. After all, house-elves basically have a superb level of magic.

    Moreover, the character of the elf is absolutely heartfelt to its owner, even if it dies, it will not reveal any secrets of its owner.

    With the safe house and the 'door key', the combination of the two will make Kewen very safe outside the school.

    In case of danger, Kewen only needs to touch the door key, and he can return to the safe house in an instant, making it completely impossible for the enemy to find him.

    After listening to Dumbledore's various arrangements, Cowan couldn't help but be very happy.

    Unexpectedly, before seeing the patent fee, he first got a house of his own, and it was still such a safe house.

    "Mr. Principal!" Kewen asked impatiently, "When can we go and see the house?"

    "Any time." Dumbledore smiled kindly.

    "Then..." Kewen suggested hopefully: "Now?"

    Dumbledore may have expected it, so he smiled unsurprisingly: "Of course, we can go to my fireplace."

    As he spoke, Dumbledore got up from behind the desk, then walked to the fireplace in the office, turned and looked at Cowen with a smile.

    Kewen stepped forward immediately, raised the contract in his hand and looked at it, remembering the address to avoid being sent to other places due to mispronunciation of the place name.

    The two of them each grabbed a handful of 'floo powder', but before teleporting, Dumbledore warned again: "When the secrecy person is determined in the future, if you want to bring someone to your house, you must remember to hold the other party, otherwise only You can teleport back with the fireplace yourself."

    "Yeah! I remember!" Kewen stared expectantly at the fireplace, nodding heavily.

    Seeing this, Dumbledore walked into the fireplace with a smile, and said softly, "Then I'll go first."

    After the words fell, Dumbledore waved his hand and sprinkled the 'floo powder', recited the name of the place, and disappeared instantly in a burst of green fire.

    When the fire light went down and disappeared, Kewen immediately stepped into the fireplace with some eagerness...
