Chapter 555 Jerry's Hidden Secret

"Of course, Ludo, what are the odds now?"

Seeing Ludo coming, Arthur immediately became interested.

Ludo carried his big bag full of gold galleons and explained with a smile:

"The odds of winning and losing between the two teams are now 1.5, and everyone generally believes that the Irish team has a better winning chance. If you choose the England team, you can get more if you win.

But as for who caught the Golden Snitch first, most people chose Jerry Kamen.

Of course, there are options with higher odds, that is, the time it takes Jerry Kamen to catch the Golden Snitch is twenty times in five minutes, ten times in thirty minutes, twice in one hour, and one hour later."

In a normal international Quidditch game, the Golden Snitch is usually released half an hour after the game. Jerry will choose when to catch the Golden Snitch based on the score on the field.

If England has the upper hand, it doesn't matter.

If you are at a disadvantage, it will be determined based on the difference in points, but it is usually between one hour and two hours. The odds of the ruble are calculated based on Jerry's usual performance.

According to his many years of experience, given the level of the Irish team, the possibility of Jerry catching the Golden Snitch within an hour must be very small, so the odds he set were very high.

"I bet a galleons on England to win, and a galleons on Jerry to catch the Golden Snitch in an hour and a half."

Arthur thought for a while and took out two gold galleons.

Seeing that there were only two gold galleons, Ludo looked disappointed, but soon regained his interest and turned to look at Jerry and the others.

"Very good, very good...Does anyone else want to bet?"

Jerry was wearing a mask at this time, and Ludo did not recognize him.

"They are too young to gamble."

Before Arthur finished speaking, George and Fred took out all their savings:

"We put thirty-seven gold Galleons, fifteen silver Sickles, and three copper Knuts, and we can buy Jerry within an hour."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Ludo, we need to discuss it first."

Jerry suddenly interrupted at this time, and then pulled everyone into the magic tent, leaving only Ludo standing in confusion outside the magic tent.

"What's wrong Jerry?"

Arthur asked doubtfully, holding two gold Gallons in his hand that he had not yet handed over.

Everyone else also looked at Jerry.

"Want to make a big fortune?"

Jerry looked at everyone with a mysterious smile on his face.

"Jerry, what's the big one?"

George and Fred were immediately interested. They had always wanted to open their own magic joke shop after graduation, so they were very interested in making money.

I just bet all my belongings on football and want to make a small fortune. If I win, my assets will be doubled immediately.

"Actually, I have never told you that not only during school games, I can catch the Golden Snitch immediately after it is released, but I can also do it during the World Cup.

It’s just that in order to prevent the game from ending so quickly every time and causing the rules of future Quidditch games to be changed, I deliberately delayed the time to catch the Golden Snitch.”…

Jerry slowly revealed the truth that he had concealed for a long time.

Everyone who heard Jerry's explanation was instantly petrified on the spot.

Ron, who was playing football every day, kept mumbling:

"No wonder, no wonder you can turn the tide of the battle every time at the most critical moment. It turns out. It turns out this is the case. Oh, Merlin, this is simply too great."

Before Ron finished speaking, the Weslai twins came to the interface and laughed excitedly:

“This is simply awesome!”

Because they already understood what Jerry meant, which was to put all their money into a bet that he could catch the Golden Snitch within five minutes, and then his assets would instantly increase twenty-fold!

By then, they will be able to obtain more than 700 gold galleons.

"Jerry, everything you said is true!"

Arthur also became excited at this time.

Although Percy has graduated now, their family still has four children studying at Hogwarts, and the shopping list sent by the school this year also includes a banquet dress.

Four sets of banquet dresses are quite an expense.

Therefore, their family is currently quite short of funds, and his wife, Mrs. Molly, has decided to make do with second-hand cheap dresses.

However, if what Jerry said is true, then their family's assets will increase twenty-fold in an instant, and all problems will be solved by then.

"Don't worry, I won't joke about this kind of thing."

Jerry nodded with a very positive tone.

If anyone else had said this, Arthur might not have believed it, but coming from the steady and mature Jerry, he just left a message saying that he wanted to go home to get the money, and then disappeared on the spot using Apparition.

"We need to leave for a while too!"

Bill and Charlie looked at each other and both apparated away to withdraw the money.

Both of them have been working outside for several years and naturally have some savings. How can they miss such a great thing at this time.

It just so happens that if their assets can be doubled this time, they will have enough money to marry a wife and start a family in the future.

"It's a pity that I only have one silver coin."

Ron looked disappointed.

"I have two."

Ginny and Ron are brothers and sisters in distress.

The two were not like the Wesley brothers, who often made some money by selling gadgets they invented at school. Their mother, Mrs. Molly, was responsible for their study and daily necessities.

So naturally I don't have much pocket money.

The three Silver Sickles in my pocket now were all extra given to me by my mother, Molly, because I was going to watch the Quidditch World Cup.

As for Harry, he was not as excited as others.

After all, his parents left him a huge inheritance, and he is not in short supply of Galleons at the moment.

"I also have a hundred gold galleons to invest."

After Arthur, Bill, and Charlie and his son left, Hermione seemed to have thought of something and took out the hundred gold galleons from her bag in her room. Her father taught her to go to Diagon Alley tomorrow to buy school supplies.

.

When Harry and Ron heard this, they showed expressions of disbelief.

They thought that based on Hermione's character, she would tell them that gambling is bad and that they shouldn't gamble, but they didn't expect that she would also participate.

In this regard, Ginny, who has extremely high emotional intelligence at a young age, is not so surprised.

Because she knows that it is not normal for a girl in love to behave abnormally.

If Jerry wasn't here, and the content of betting had nothing to do with Jerry, then even if she knew she would definitely win, Hermione probably wouldn't participate in the betting, and would even lecture Harry and Ron like a teacher.

It's a pity that now it's all related to Jerry, so the natural result will be different.

When you truly fall in love with someone, everything related to him will be beautiful.
