Chapter 235 Annie's Wand
Chapter 235 Annie's Wand
Persuaded by William, Hermione decided to contact the elves at Hogwarts first to change their minds.
The letter of suggestion to Dumbledore is also indispensable, which helps to improve the living environment of the elves.
A week later, the school sent a new letter, which included a list of new books they needed to buy for the new semester.
Lockhart has obviously reached a strategic partnership with Hogwarts, and there are actually seven of his books in it.
He listed most of the books he wrote on the required reading list for school students.
William didn't think Lockhart would stay at the school for seven years.
Leaving aside a particular curse, Lockhart is not allowed to be so awesome... Judging from the correspondence with him, the other party has more temperament as a businessman than a professor.
He agreed to become a professor at Hogwarts in order to increase the sales of books and further increase his popularity by the way.
This kind of person will not be a substitute teacher in school for more than a year, otherwise it will affect his ability to make money.
Of course, after resigning, it is estimated that "Lockhart's Life at Hogwarts" will be published, so as to harvest a wave of leeks.
What surprised William the most was that Lockhart was a graduate of Ravenclaw College.
The Defense Against the Dark Arts professors for three consecutive years are all students of Ravenclaw College... Dumbledore has a taste for me.
A few days later, William took Hermione and Anne to Diagon Alley.
The three of them stood in front of the big fireplace.
Anne picked up a pinch of shiny powder from the china pot, went to the fire, and threw the powder into the flames.She walked straight into the fire and yelled "Diagon Alley!"
It was gone in the blink of an eye.
Floo powder was invented by Ignatia Wildsmith, who was also a Ravenclaw graduate.
However, after her death, Floo powder was owned by the Principality, controlled by official agencies, and belonged to a monopoly industry.
At present, there is only one licensed manufacturer of Floom in the UK, and it is illegal for anyone else to sell it.
Of course, in line with the mentality of running the market and preventing piracy, its price has not changed in 100 years, and it has always been 2 Sickles a scoop.
This is the same as the happy water that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.
Soon, both Hermione and Annie left, and William picked up a pinch of shiny powder, walked to the fire, and threw the powder into the flames.
He seemed to be sucked into a huge water pipe, and his body was spinning rapidly... The whistling sound beside his ears was deafening...
A moment later, he was standing in front of the stone fireplace of a wizard's shop.
People were coming and going in Diagon Alley, constantly crowded and walking towards the front.
Because it was too crowded, William had to hold one person with each hand to prevent Hermione and Annie from getting separated.
"What to buy first?" Hermione asked with her face raised.
"Wand, my wand!" Anne said impatiently.
William nodded, and led the two towards Ollivander's store.
There is more than one wand shop in Ollivander in Diagon Alley, but everyone generally recognizes the time-honored shop.
After the three of them entered the store, the wind chimes on the door jingled.
Cedric was climbing the ladder to check the old wands that had been accumulated for many years, and was going to take advantage of the summer vacation to go to a batch of stocks.
Mr. Ollivander sat in a chair and drank his tea.
"Welcome." Cedric smiled when he saw the three of William.
To be fair, it is not easy for Cedric to grab business from Ollivander after graduation.
Of course, he could use his face to attract those rich women to buy wands.
These people may buy dozens of them at a time, and they are still guaranteed in terms of quantity.The only drawback is that Liuwei Dihuang Wan is more expensive.
Didn't William attract a large number of Hogwarts clients just by relying on his face?
Who doesn't have a few female classmates with stories?
Make money, it's not shabby!
Ollivander stood up. "Welcome, Mister Stark, we meet again.
I still remember the wand you bought two years ago like it was yesterday.
Twelve and three quarters of inches long, of cherry wood, a fine wand for enchantment, and I am glad you won the Order of Merlin with it. "
"Miss Granger is different. Grape vine wands, and the owners of such wands are almost always those with lofty pursuits and visions beyond ordinary people."
Ollivander showed an amazing memory at the beginning, and then he gave a rainbow fart, and the people who bought the wand were blown away.
After Mr. Ollivander touted, he took another look at Annie.
"Okay, Miss Stark, come on. Let me see." He took out a long silver measuring tape from his pocket.
Ollivander moved quickly, and then asked Cedric to produce a large number of wands.
But he was dissatisfied with everything.
"Oh, fussy customer!" Ollivander repeated his bluff.
William and Hermione looked at each other and exchanged glances.
When the two came to buy wands, so did Ollivander.
"Never mind the fussy customer, there's always a perfect one here. . . and here it is, a marvelous combination, cedar, ptarmigan, eleven inches long. Nice, and pliable."
After Annie took it, she felt a sudden heat on her fingertips.She raised her wand high above her head, and an arc of electricity blew and bleeped in the air.
Cedric put Anne's wand into the box and wrapped it in brown paper. Ollivander kept saying, "Isn't this a coincidence... Isn't this a coincidence..."
Annie looked at Ollivander suspiciously.
"I remember every wand I've ever made, and the core of this wand came from a ptarmigan named Frank, Mr Scamander's pet.
Participated in the capture of the Dark Lord Grindelwald.
I think my son, you will be so outstanding in the future and achieve a great career. "
Little stars flashed in Annie's eyes, and she had already set the capture of the original Dark Lord as her goal.
When she grows up, capture Grindelwald... and hand it over to the great Dumbledore to take care of her.
Unbeknownst to Anne, it is not a good idea to hand it over to the headmaster, as he might use torture to excess: whips, handcuffs, candles, tying up...
Cruel!
William didn't think so much, but learned Ollivander's sales skills from the sidelines.
Ollivander is the hidden master salesman. After his performance is fooled, which little wizard doesn't think he is the child of destiny? !
He even wanted to punch Grindelwald and kick Voldemort.
No wonder Ollivander's wand is the number one seller in Europe, and they have their own tricks!
Fortunately, Ollivander is not from the Celestial Dynasty, otherwise a magic wand, he would probably be able to brag enough to obliterate Dao.
After the three left, William took them to the pharmacy to refill the medicine, and then went to Madam Malkin's shop to make a robe.
After a lap, there are more and more people in Diagon Alley.
The three of William were sitting outside Florin's, eating creamy strawberry chocolate ice cream.
"You guys rest here for a while, I'll be right back." William said after eating the ice cream.
"Why are you going?" Hermione asked suspiciously.
"I need to get something." After William finished speaking, he walked towards the distance.
The item he ordered from the Blog-Bojin shop arrived.
