NOVEL NEXT Arms dealer from Hogwarts
Chapter 49 Caution
Chapter 49 Caution
Jemini ended up leaving the Devis & Bains store because the bearded owner wouldn't give him a [-]% discount.
Of course, the main reason is that there is nothing to buy.
All the way to the Fengya wizard clothing store, where Jemini bought a dark green lady's robe—a gift for Professor McGonagall.
Although the representative color of Gryffindor is red, in places like Britain and Ireland, people actually prefer green, especially in terms of clothing. Every professor has a few green robes.
A robe cost Jemini thirty Galleons.
Compared with Mrs. Mojin's store, Feng Ya's price can be said to be very unfriendly.
But there is no way around that. After all, they are taking the high-end route. There are chain stores in London and Paris. It is normal for branded goods to be expensive.
Jamie heard that the store recently planned to find Gilderoy Lockhart as an endorsement, and he was very happy about it. After the end of the second grade, their price should be [-]% off...
Jemini, the gift for Professor Sprout, has already been bought, and he ordered a batch of books from Lihen Bookstore a few days ago.
Originally, according to Jemini's idea, it was to give Professor Sprout some herbal care products, but later he was lucky enough to eat a meal cooked by Professor Sprout, and he changed his mind.
Had he not been teaching at Hogwarts, Professor Sprout would have been the leading chef in the wizarding world.
Jemini had the honor to attend a tea party held by Professor Sprout before. It was not so much a tea party as it was a self-service gourmet gathering, all of which were senior girls who liked to cook.
Noticing that Jemini was a bit out of place, Professor Sprout made a spicy beef pasta on the spot with tomato, chili, beef and other ingredients after glancing at what Jemini was eating.
Tastes a bit like big plate chicken.
Delicious Jemini's brains are trembling...
And the most important point is that there is no such method in pasta. In other words, Professor Sprout unlocked part of his taste code simply by relying on the few snacks Jemini ate.
In my previous life, I remembered a certain TV show clip. A girl made witch soup that the customers couldn’t stop eating based on the flavors they ordered. Jamie originally thought it was too exaggerated, but now it seems that the TV show was not exaggerated.
"Is it too late for me to transfer to Hufflepuff, Professor?"
"I'm sorry, it's too late for the baby."
Jemini still remembers that Professor Sprout smiled narrowly...
A good dean belongs to others...
So the gift Jemini gave her was gourmet recipes from all over the world.
After that, Jemini bought several large boxes of candies and chocolates from Honeydukes, and mailed them to Dumbledore and the Holy Cross Welfare Institute respectively, leaving two boxes for the elves in the kitchen.
"How do you sell this quill?"
Literati Habitat quill shop, this is the stationery shop of the wizarding world.
asked Jemini, pointing to a quill in the window.
The quill was about fifteen inches long, the metal pen barrel in the first half was about two inches long, and the second half was a huge flame-like feather with a very bright color.
"Forty Galleons."
"Fourteen Galleons?"
"It's forty! Not fourteen!" The clerk emphasized at the top of his voice.
Jemini shook his head: "It's too expensive."
Although he didn't care about spending more money, forty Galleons for a quill was too outrageous. The lifespan of a quill itself was short, and an ordinary quill was less than five guilds. Although this pen had a metal barrel, As durable as a fountain pen, but not forty Galleons anyway.
"Actually, this pen itself is not sold to students." The clerk spread his hands: "It's made of Phoenix Feather. The minimum market price of this thing is more than 20 Galleons. Generally, no one will buy it. Decoration, the price is too high."
"Phoenix Feather..." Jemini squeezed his chin and looked at the fiery red quill.
This thing is indeed very expensive. As the top material for the core of the wand, it would be impossible to sell it so cheap if it wasn’t for the discount for freshmen to buy wands. It would be even more expensive to use it for other purposes. The phoenix feather could even be sold for fifty Galleons—because the place was too cold, there was no way there would be a phoenix.
Therefore, the quill pen in the showcase can be said to be very luxurious, and most people would not use it to make a quill pen.
Phoenix feathers can be used to make magic wands, refine potions, or break curses. If it is the most wasteful and meaningless act, it must be made into a quill...
"If you think it's too expensive, you can take a look at the other ones. The ones made by griffins, eagles and horses, and birds and snakes are all very exquisite. The most expensive ones are only five Galleons." The clerk said, pointing to the side shelf: "It's also great as a gift."
Jemini shook his head. It's not that these quills are not good-looking, but they are afraid of comparison in everything. The phoenix quill, which is as bright as a flame, looks really good.
"Forget it, forty is forty." Jemini finally bought the quill.
Although it’s good to choose a gift if you want it, but when you buy a gift, if you bargain or try to get a cheap price, it’s like discounting your intentions, which feels weird and a sense of disobedience.
After all, Jemini’s two lifetimes combined were only 30 years old, and most of the time was still in childhood. Men are not good at shopping, let alone boys.
When a girl goes shopping, it’s like walking through the eight diagrams. When a boy enters the mall, he goes straight to the one he sees first, and then——I want the black one.
It is unrealistic to expect a creature that can wash and wash a pair of underpants for years to understand the meaning of shopping...
Afterwards, Jemini bought a bunch of interesting little things at Zocco's joke store as Christmas presents for Draco and the twins. At this point, his trip to Hogsmeade should be over.
Finally, Christmas came quietly.
Early in the morning, Jemini was lost in thought while looking at the pile of presents as high as a hill next to his bed...
After Halloween, he had already moved back to the dormitory from the Room of Requirement, so the gifts were naturally delivered to the dormitory as well.
It's just that what Jamini didn't expect was that he would receive so many gifts.
Picking up a gift box, Jemini glanced at the postcard on it.
"Marcus Flint? So why did he give me a Christmas present?" Jemini couldn't understand: "Did you cast a curse?"
With a trace of wariness, Jemini put the gift box on the table, then moved away from it, took out his wand and pointed it at the box: "Let loose and let go."
reed——
The ribbon on the gift box was torn apart by an inexplicable force, and then the box opened, revealing the contents inside.
It was a Quidditch maintenance box.
"Is there an elf cleaning the room nearby? If there is one, please come here!" Opening the door, Jemini shouted.
This Dogecoin is really too cautious...
