NOVEL NEXT Arms dealer from Hogwarts
Chapter 1: Jemini Foxx
Chapter 1: Jemini Foxx
England, suburb of London, Holy Cross Welfare Home.
"6 inches long, ash wood, very strong ... the range can reach 20 meters! This is my latest slingshot, starting from one pound!"
In the yard, a boy with black hair and blue eyes was sitting by the flower bed, holding a slingshot in his hand, and shouted to the children around him.
The boy was very handsome, all the girls watching were focused on his face, only the boys were staring at the slingshot in his hand with fiery eyes.
"Jemini, one pound, I want it!" A boy proudly puffed out his chest.
With this slingshot, he was the prettiest kid in the crowd, and Jenny would probably cast him admiring glances.
Although one pound is not a small amount for him, equivalent to more than half a month's pocket money, but in order to become the most beautiful cub in the crowd, he can bear it.
"One pound at a time!" Jamie said with a smile on his lips, "Lyle offered one pound, anyone want to bid?"
"I'll add ten pence!" the voice yelled, coming from a rather burly boy.
"One pound tenpence from Grice! Very well, one pound tenpence!"
Hearing someone asking him for a price, the boy named Lyle gritted his teeth: "Twenty!"
"One pound and twentypence, is there any higher?"
Grice puffed out his chest. "One pound and thirtypence!"
"One pound and thirty pence, can anyone offer a higher price?" Jemini looked around with a smile in his eyes.
Gladstone was not happy for a moment: "Hurry up and shout! Jemini! You are raising the price in disguise!"
Jemini was stunned, and spread his hands innocently: "Raise the price? Is the price high? No way, no way? No one really thinks that the price of one pound and thirty pence is too high, right?"
"One pound and fortypence!" cried Lyle, blushing and scratching his neck.
Just now, the girl named Jenny looked at him and smiled.
There was a smile on the corner of Jemini's mouth. He liked to make deals with this kind of dog-licking boy. As long as the girl they liked was by his side, even if they squeezed all the money out of their pockets, they would bite the bullet and buy it.
For boys of this age, it is time to save face.
Forget it, this price will almost drain Lyle's wallet, and Grice probably won't be able to spend any more money, so Jemini decided to stop there.
"One pound and fortypence once! One pound and fortypence twice...one pound and fortypence three times! Ha! Congratulations, Lyle, the slingshot is yours."
Jemini smiled like a spring breeze, handed the slingshot to Lyle, and under the reluctant gaze of the other party, accepted all of Lyle's property.
Looking enviously at Lyle, who was playing with a slingshot and playing with pebbles, Grice turned sourly to leave, but before he could turn and leave, Jemini pressed his shoulder: "Don't rush away, Greg Les, I think this two-fingered knuckles should be very suitable for you."
Very easily, another £[-] came in.
"The capital thing, from head to toe, has blood and filth dripping from every pore since it came into this world - but I just love it."
Jemini leaned against the fence of the flower garden, nimbly flipping a tenpence coin with his slender fingers, smiling slyly like a little fox who has stolen a chicken.
Children's money is really easy to earn!
A simple panel appeared in sight. On the panel, there was a picture of the white wax slingshot and the original price: 20 pence.
This is an arms store, which contains all items that can be used in battle or war, whether it is Newton's, magic, or fighting spirit, all kinds of things can be bought.
The usage of the system is also very simple, as long as you have money.
From the birth of Jamie to the present, the system has never said a word. It has always maintained a dirty money relationship with Jamie. It has never released any messy tasks. You pay, I ship, everyone arranges good.
What a refreshing and unaffected system!
In just a few years of primary school career, Jemini has used this system to accumulate a wealth of more than 5000 pounds. In this era of Britain, this is almost equivalent to two years' salary of an ordinary person.
As for selling slingshots, wooden knives, etc. to elementary school students, it’s not shabby...
Jemini is very open, making money, not shabby.
Now he has nothing but handsomeness, it's not the time to talk about losing face.
Twenty years of experience in his previous life let him know clearly that only when he is full can he have the strength to stand up and save face.
"It's five pounds and ten pence~"
After counting the money he earned today, Jemini fell on the lawn and rolled comfortably.
Five quid early in the morning sounds like a lot, but for the next few days Jemini won't make much money.
The children in the orphanage basically didn't have much pocket money, and they were almost squeezed out by Jemini. The boys in the school had more or less made deals with Jemini, and they were all poor.
The market is too small and the customers are too few.
Maybe if I have nothing to do, I should often go to Surrey next door?I heard that there are many rich people there, and children have a lot of pocket money on hand.
"Jamini!"
Suddenly, a crisp voice sounded.
Sister Linda came to the yard and looked around, looking for Jemini.
"Here, here, what's the matter? What's the matter?"
Standing up from the lawn, Jemini came to Sister Linda's side.
"Don't lie on the lawn all the time, it's easy to get sick." Sister Linda smiled gently, reached out and rubbed Jemini's head, and then handed him an envelope: "I have your letter, do you have any pen pals?" ? Or...are you in love?"
Sister Linda couldn't help giggling as she spoke.
"Letter? To me?"
Jemini looked a little surprised.
Who would write to an orphan?
Another orphan?
"Holy Cross Welfare Institute...Room 201...Mr. Jemini Fox..." Looking at the words on the parchment envelope, Jemini shrugged: "There is no doubt that this letter is addressed to me."
The envelope was made of heavy parchment, the address was written in emerald green ink, and there was no postage stamp on it.
"There are no stamps, maybe someone's prank? Do you still use parchment these days? Isn't it an antique?"
Turning over the envelope in his hand, he saw a wax seal, a coat of arms, a capital 'H' surrounded by a lion, an eagle, a badger and a snake.
"Wow~Wow~Wow..." Jemini raised his eyebrows: "Look what I received..."
Jemini wasn't very surprised by this letter. Even if he crossed the belt system, nothing that happened now would cause him to have too much mood swings—unless he made a lot of money.
"Do you know where this came from?" Sister Linda looked at Jemini with concern.
"Maybe it's an acceptance letter from an old school?" Jemini smiled, but didn't rush to open the envelope.
"School?" Sister Linda smiled gently: "I think Smelting Middle School is quite suitable for you, but you are so smart, it is not impossible for other schools to invite you to enroll. You should think about it yourself. Let me know if you need help."
"Thank you, Sister Linda."
Nodding to Sister Linda's gentlemen, Jemini returned to the room and opened the envelope full of the atmosphere of the times.
