Become a god by drawing cards starting from Hogwarts

After lunch with Mr. Granger, Leon sat in the car with him and headed for London.

To Leon's surprise, the place where the manuscript was read this time was not in the book company, but in the café.

"The other party is one of the shareholders of Oxford University Press, and he lives in London, so he didn't go to their publishing house, after all, their publishing house is in Oxford, but he likes to read books, and if you get his approval, then your book will definitely be successfully published. "

Before entering the café, Mr. Granger explained to Leon.

Leon nodded, holding the first copy of A Song of Ice and Fire in his hand, and followed Mr. Granger into the café.

Near the seat by the window on the side of the street, an old man with glasses was looking intently at the Thames, the coffee in front of him not moving at all.

"Hello, Mr. Patrick. Mr. Granger greeted the old man first.

"Hello, Mr. Patrick, my first meeting, I'm Leon Chris. "

Lyon, as Mr. Granger greeted, as he greeted the old man.

"Oh, Granger, here you are, sit down, this is the genius boy you told me about. Patrick put down the Thames in his hand, motioned for the two to sit down with a kind smile on his face, and beckoned at the same time: "Waiter, please come over for a while, what do you want to drink?"

"Blue Mountain Coffee. Mr. Granger spoke to the waiter, and before Leon could speak, Patrick said, "Give him a glass of freshly squeezed juice." "

Then he said to Leon: "Sorry kid, coffee is not a good thing for minors, I made a decision for you without permission, I hope you can understand." "

"Thank you for your kindness. Leon nodded and smiled at Patric, but he wasn't angry.

"Child, how old are you this year and where are you studying?"

After the waiter left, Patric questioned Leon first.

"At the age of twelve, the place where I studied was just an unknown private college. Leon replied helplessly, it's not that he is not sincere, but that the "Secrecy Law" does not allow it.

"Oh, you're only twelve?" Hearing this, Patric was stunned, he thought that Leon was sixteen or seventeen years old, although his face was a little immature, but his height and physique did not look like a twelve-year-old child.

"I'm in a hurry. Leon quipped.

"Hahaha, that's an interesting statement. Patric laughed and then exclaimed, "My granddaughter is as old as you, she is my pistachio, and I always feel very kind when I look at you children." "

"Now let's get down to business, I wasn't going to get involved in the company, after all, I'm retired and just living a retirement life on shares, but Granger has a lot of respect for you, and I believe in his vision, so I'm giving you this opportunity. "

Patrick sat up straight, nodded to Leon and said, "Now, you have half an hour, and if your book doesn't appeal to me, then I can only say sorry to you." "

"Please. Leon didn't have any inkblots and handed Patric a song of ice and fire.

Patric looked at Leondi with some surprise that it was not a manuscript, but a typeset print, nodded and smiled, and then looked at the title of the book, as well as the title of the volume.

"Oh, it's still a long story, "A Song of Ice and Fire - Game of Thrones", it's kind of interesting. "

Just looking at the name, Patrick became curious, especially the title of the volume, which made him very curious about how a twelve-year-old child interpreted rights.

Immediately after, he couldn't wait to open the book, turn to the first page, and read it carefully.

Neither Mr. Granger nor Mr. Lyon had any intention of disturbing Mr. Patrick, who had nothing to do but looked out the window at the street, while Mr. Granger was holding the second volume of The Clash of Kings that Leon had given him.

Half an hour passed quickly, but Patric had no intention of speaking, still quietly flipping through the book, his reading speed was very slow, and at some times he would stop reading and enter thinking mode.

"Gentlemen, do you need a refill?" it wasn't until the waiter came over to ask the three of them that Patric was interrupted.

"It's okay, please don't bother us, if you think we've delayed your business, then, sorry, this is my compensation. "

Patric pulled out fifty pounds and placed them on the table with an impatient face, but there was no rough word in his words.

He was about to continue reading, but he stumbled upon a glimpse of Leon and Mr. Granger, especially Mr. Granger's book in the same style as his own, but with the title of his book, "A Clash of Kings".

"Oh, you're done with the second volume?" Patric reacted immediately.

"Actually, the whole book is done. Leon explained.

"Oh, unbelievable!" Patrick sighed, and then reluctantly put down the book in his hand: "I am fascinated, it is a very interesting story, and it is also very valuable to study, it is hard to imagine that such an excellent book was written by a twelve-year-old boy." "

"If you like it, it's fine. Leon replied with a smile, his expression rather flat.

"No problem, I now know why Granger thinks so highly of this book, I tried to borrow it several times and he was reluctant to borrow it, if it were me, I wouldn't, this book definitely has the value and significance of publication. "

After Patrick finished speaking, he looked at Leon: "After reading the first volume alone, I was amazed by the description of human nature in this book. Then he glanced at the second volume in Mr. Granger's hand.

"This book must be published even for my own sake, and I can't wait to see what the Seven Kingdoms will do, and congratulations, Leon, I have a hunch that you will be the youngest best-selling author in the history of British publishing. "

"It's too early to say that, and it still needs the market's approval to get the answer, but I'm glad you enjoyed the book. Leon replied.

"Humble young man with a lot of maturity, I can understand why you can write such a serious fantasy novel. Patrick nodded, and then said, "If you're not in a hurry, don't mind if I'm an old man who reads the first volume, I know the rules, and I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to read this book again until I sign the contract." "

"Please. Mr. Granger smiled and said, "I need to read this too, oh, it's so exciting, I can't bear to put it down." "

"If you like it, it's fine. It's boring to stay here, but Leon doesn't break the idea of a reading experience for the two, because it's about business.

As the title suggests, the transition chapter, you can jump, so I won't pit you, and save the points for the next trip to France.
