"My interest is purely altruistic. A bit hard to believe I am aware but it is true." Of course, it was only hard to believe if you didn't know Quentin either in person or by reputation. "I am offering Noah some financial backing as it were. I am aware that poverty can be a shackle that can keep a young man chained for his entire life. But I've also seen what happens when someone without coin is given an influx of it without responsibility." Quentin elaborates.
"So, at present, I am simply looking to find out what is the best way I can keep Noah on the path he is on now." Starting as a farmhand and moving on to being a farmer with his own land. "Which brings us to now. It seems you've been able to offer Noah employment and I would like to discuss with you something of a plan for his future. Though there are, I think, a few aspects of it that I would rather he not know off the bat."
Looking over at the lad he inclines his head. "While I do not typically like keeping people out of the loop young Master Longbottom." He says. "I don't your future actions to be influenced by the contents of the discussion." Mostly because his plan was of the sort that would be good for the young man in the long term but he might not appreciate aspects of it in the short term.
