Chapter 70 Everything

Gold and red floor tiles, stair railings with intricate patterns, carved golden candlesticks, and exquisite marble statues.

The portraits with golden frames greeted Jemini loudly, and the celestial portraits on the ceiling were slowly rotating and moving. It was just a hall, which gave Jemini a feeling of dizziness.

Jemini experienced first-hand what kind of life the pure-blood families in the wizarding world live. Originally, he thought that the daily life of Hogwarts was luxurious enough, but he did not expect that Hogwarts, in addition to the big , nothing else...

"Fortunately, my sister picked you up first." Shirley took Jemini's hand and said softly, "If Adria gets ahead of you, my lord, you will have to endure the cramped environment of their house. "

"Narrow and cramped?" Jemini was taken aback.

"It's not that exaggerated, Adria's house is still very spacious."

Charlotte smiled: "The Foley family is also in Hampshire, and they live in the nearby Foley Village. It is a family-style village. There are squibs and wizards in the village. In addition, the Foley family does herbal farming, which is different from ours. Strictly speaking, the Foley family is a bit older than our Gray family, after all, it is one of the 28 pure-blood families."

"Herb farming?"

"That's right." Charlotte nodded, "Our two families have always been on good terms. If it weren't for this relationship, I wouldn't be able to support the Gray family's potion business."

"I see..." Jemini nodded, no wonder Adria and Shirley have such a good relationship.

Shirley took Jemini all the way to the top of the third floor, pushed open a tall brown wooden door, and came to a luxurious bedroom.

"This is your room, Lord Fox."

Looking at the big room in front of him, Jemini couldn't help opening his mouth.

What catches the eye is a huge circular room, from the third floor to the fifth floor, which is nearly ten meters high. Judging from the location, this place should be the tower of the castle.

The ground is covered with a red carpet with intricate patterns, a huge carved fireplace is burning with raging flames, and there is a circle of soft-looking sofas in the middle of the room, and there is a brown-red bookcase occupying most of the wall in the north. There are densely packed books on it.

Going down the stairs on the south side of the room to the platform above the room, Jemini saw a large bed with a height of three to four meters, with fiery red curtains hanging around the bed, and the cabinet next to it was full of various snacks and snacks , opened the wardrobe sliding door on the other side, and various styles of new clothes were neatly hung inside.

"Isn't it too thoughtful?" Jemini felt his throat dry.

"Barely make ends meet." Shirley looked around, afraid that there might be something inconsiderate: "Rum!"

With a snap, an elf in a brown pillowcase appeared in front of the three of them.

"From now on, you will be responsible for Mr. Fox's daily life."

"Yes, master." The elf called Rum bowed respectfully, with his pointed nose touching the ground, and said excitedly, "It is the greatest honor in Rum's life to serve Mr. Fox."

"Your name is Rum?" Jemini looked curiously at the house elf in front of him: "Is that the rum from rum? I like rum."

Rum was so moved by Jemini's words that he trembled all over.

"Rum was named by my father, who is in charge of making wine." Charlotte chuckled and said, "Besides, my name comes from a rose flower called Charlotte, and Shirley's name comes from the snow flower. Lijiu, these two are my mother's favorite."

"Ms. Gray must be a very gentle person." Jemini nodded gently.

"Yeah." Charlotte smiled softly: "Stop talking about this, I think you must be hungry? Dinner should be ready, please come with me."

Supper at Gray's was extravagant, with grilled steak, smoked salmon, and a small bowl full of caviar.

During one dinner, Jemini learned a lot about the Gray family, for example, there were fifty house elves in Gray Manor.

"I remember Draco said that there are less than ten Malfoy Manors, right?"

Jemini squeezed his chin, a little surprised.

"I bought them all." Charlotte wiped her mouth with a napkin in her hand, and said reservedly: "When I first took control of the family business, many employees quit their jobs because of some relatives' interference, so I simply They stopped recruiting and bought a large number of elves with money.”

"May I ask, how much is an elf?" Jemini blinked.

"About two to three thousand Galleons, some are cheaper." Charlotte said gently, "Actually, the difficulty in buying these elves is not the money, but the source."

"Because the house elves are absolutely loyal to the family they serve, coupled with their excellent magical ability, basically there will be no such transactions. Bought from a pure-blood family."

"Will they sell it?" Jemini asked in surprise.

"If it is not particularly embarrassing, generally no wizard will sell his elf. In contrast, they would rather sell their wives." Charlotte said contemptuously: "I ran all over the world for this reason. Half of Europe."

"But it turns out that I was right. The elves don't need wages, they work hard and are extremely loyal to me. The potions they refine are also above the market level, and their exquisite brewing skills are also widely praised by the market. If it weren't for this Otherwise, the potion market of the Gray family would have been divided up long ago."

"Sounds good?" Jemini raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, but it also attracted a lot of coveted eyes." Shirley snorted softly, "For example, that jackal in Wiltshire..."

"Jackal?"

"It's the Malfoy family, and they live in nearby Wiltshire." Shirley looked worried: "Lucius Malfoy, that old snot, has always wanted shares in the potion store, and he tripped up his sister every now and then, so I didn't show up to you all the time when I was at school, and seeing the Malfoy pups upset me."

"Is the Malfoy family very influential?" It was the first time for Jemini to know such a thing. This is a business situation in the magic world, right?
"Although their family is very annoying, it is true that the Malfoy family is very influential." Charlotte nodded and said softly.

"We don't import flying carpets in the UK. The main reason is that these families headed by Malfoy, most of the broomstick companies have shares. Enough for them to live comfortably."

"I've heard of some, it seems that William I bestowed the land on Lucius Malfoy I?" Jemini recalled the history of magic course, which mentioned some things about the Malfoy family, although the Malfoy family has always been Just denying this kind of thing.

"That's right, they have been annexing the land of Muggles. When the "International Federation of Wizards' Secrecy Act" was first implemented, the Malfoy family was the one who opposed it the most." Charlotte nodded: "But once the Secrecy Act Take effect, they immediately changed their position."

"It really has their style..." Jemini smiled helplessly.

"But maybe in the near future, I won't have to worry about the troubles from the Malfoy family anymore." Charlotte smiled pointedly.

"Sounds like he's using me?" Jemini took a sip from his glass. He heard that it was a well-brewed sherry from rum.

"It's not like that, Mr. Fox, please don't get me wrong, my sister doesn't mean that." Shirley said quickly: "Everything in the Gray family belongs to you."

"Hmm... is that so?" Jemini crossed his fingers and propped his chin, looked at Charlotte, and smiled meaningfully: "Everything about the Gray family?"

Charlotte's face instantly turned red.
