“But where are you going to get the gold to start a joke shop? asked Hermoine skeptically. “You’re going to need all the ingredients and materials- and premises too, I suppose... ”
Harry did not look at the twins. His face felt hot; he deliberately dropped his fork and dived down to retrieve it. He heard Fred say overhead, “Ask us no questions and we’ll tell you no lies, Hermione. C’mon, George, if we get there early we might be able to sell a few Extendable Ears before Herbology.”
Harry emerged from under the table to see Fred and George walking away, each carrying a stack of toast.
“What did that mean?” said Hermione, looking from Harry to Ron. “‘Ask us no questions...’ Does that mean they’ve already got some gold to start a joke shop?”
