Chapter 81
Diagon Alley, Madam Malkin's robe store.

Madam Malkin was restless.

As the sole provider of Hogwarts uniforms, Madam Malkin has connections with many professors.

If she had no background, she wouldn't be able to get a big order from Hogwarts!

This is the school list!It is mandatory for little wizards to come to Madam Malkin's shop to buy uniforms every year!
Cultivating the market from a young age, when the little wizard grows up and wants to buy clothes, the first choice is of course Mrs. Mojin.

After ten years of peace, Mrs. Mojin made a lot of money.

Unfortunately, she just got the news from Professor McGonagall.

Voldemort could be resurrected at any time.

That cruel period of war is about to come.

"No, I have to do something!"

More than ten years ago, Mrs. Malkin saw the corpse of a wizard on the ground every now and then. At that time, she was terrified and prayed every day.After ten years of peaceful life, Madam Malkin could not accept the possibility of being killed by Death Eaters.

The older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous.

Mark pushed the door open, and Mrs. Malkin's eyes lit up.

"Principal Mark, I heard that the person whose name cannot be spoken has been resurrected?"

Unlike Dumbledore, who likes to be called the Professor, Mark prefers to be called the Headmaster.

It's unlucky, but it sounds good!

"Nothing." Mark shook his head.

Mrs. Malkin just breathed a sigh of relief, and Mark said: "But it may be resurrected at any time."

As for when... that's because of the scientific truth, and the specific situation has been analyzed in detail.

Mrs. Malkin raised her breath of relief just now.

How can you die once you finish talking?
"I'm going to build a Hogwarts-Hogsmeade strategic defense circle to resist the coming darkness." Mark said, "Mrs. Malkin, the future may be difficult. We must be considerate of each other and tide over the difficulties together."

It's okay to go through the difficult times together, and it doesn't matter if the life is a little bit sad, but you can't even lose your life!
"Then you see, how about I move the store to Hogsmeade?" The witty Madam Malkin quickly came up with a solution.

Hogsmeade is safer than Diagon Alley.

"Yes, yes." Mark pondered: "But you also know that the geographical location over there is not as good as Diagon Alley."

"It does not matter, I do not mind."

"The price may be relatively high... You know, Hogwarts sent people to guard Hogsmeade. I don't care about money, but the professors and little wizards under my command can't do voluntary labor, right? People eat horse chews, and they have to give some benefits .”

"Is there such a good thing?" Mrs. Malkin was overjoyed. She thought she could only use the name of Hogwarts to deter Death Eaters, but there are professors and wizards who often patrol and serve. The safety factor has been doubled. Money should be.

She paid the money willingly.

"And the Hogsmeade store is not up to me. If you want to open a store, you may have to pay a transfer fee, otherwise the original store would not be willing to leave."

The transfer fee... Mrs. Malkin hesitated, this is not a small amount of money.

"Can't I build a new house and open a shop?"

"Of course not!" Mark flatly refused. How much would it cost to build a building?You all go to repair the house, who will I transfer my shop to?
"Our patrol team will only be in the range of Hogsmeade, and we can rush there if there is a problem." Mark said, "It doesn't matter if you build a house, but after a few days, the news will spread and everyone will go to Hogsmeade to repair the house." , our wizards can't protect us!"

I understand, this example must never be opened.

Madam Malkin nodded, the fewer Hogsmeade people, the stronger the protection.

Then there is no doubt.

Hogsmeade store, she's ordering it!
That's not a store, but a life-saving card in the wizard war!

What's wrong with spending some money for your life?
Mrs. Malkin was persuaded, and Mark turned and went into Ollivander's wand shop.

The Ollivander family has been making wands since 380 BC, and has a history of more than 2000 years.

It is the only wand shop in Diagon Alley.

"Mr. Ollivander, Diagon Alley is not a place to stay forever." Mark's voice was heavy.

For Mrs. Malkin, it is enough to scare and scare her. She will scare herself to death. As long as the conditions are not too excessive, she is willing to move away.

Ollivander can't. This old man is well-informed. He experienced the war that the previous Dark Lord Grindelwald swept across Europe when he was young. When he grew up, he saw the rise of Voldemort.

"What happened?" Ollivander was taken aback, isn't Diagon Alley fine?It's bustling all day long, so why can't you stay for a long time?

"Voldemort may be resurrected at any time." Mark stretched out his hand: "I beg you to move to Hogsmeade, where I can be sure to protect your safety."

"Safe?" Ollivander laughed loudly, "Don't worry, Principal Mark, I'm not afraid of death."

"I'll stay in Diagon Alley, I want to see how the mysterious man deals with me!"

"I know you are not afraid of death, but if you die, what will you do with your astonishing cane-making skills?" Mark said, "You are the only master cane-making master. If you die, your craft will be lost!"

Ollivander was silent.

He's not afraid of death, but he loves making wands.

The skill of making sticks is lost, and Ollivander will become an eternal sinner.

At that time, Crooked Grigovich's wand was dumped, and in a few years, the word Ollivander would disappear in the magic world, and it could only be seen in the history of magic.

"I have prepared a shop for you in Hogsmeade, and you don't need to spend a single knut." Mark struck while the iron was hot.

Ollivander was furious.

Doesn't cost a knut?what?underestimate me?
We have specialized in making sticks for more than 2000 years, but we still can't afford such a small amount of money?

"Principal Mark, you can pay as much as you want. You don't need to take care of the shops, I will find them myself!"

Mark wasn't going to really care.

Wands are essential for wizards, and can greatly improve spell control and casting speed.

It is equivalent to the ammunition of the magic world.

Ollivander is in the arms business, can he still have no money?

The three industry leaders of banks, clothing, and arms were persuaded by Mark, and Mark followed suit and went into other stores.

Fantastic Beasts Shop, Quidditch Boutique, Illa Owl Shop, Ridge Books, Potions Shop, Thrift Shop, Partridge's Cauldron Shop...

Mark went to all the prosperous shops in Diagon Alley that Hogsmeade didn't have.

Know it with love, move it with reason.

All the store managers said that money is a bastard, and you are making money if you don’t have it.

It's just a little Galleon, I can't afford a safe house with powerful protection magic, and I can't afford a house elf, so I might as well set up a shop in Hogsmeade and buy a life in the upcoming war.

They tacitly blocked the news and only told each other's best friends, lest there were too many people who needed protection and Hogwarts couldn't manage it.

How can this work?
Mark immediately went to the Ministry of Magic to find Fudge.

"Minister Fudge, I recently heard rumors in the wizarding world that Voldemort may be resurrected at any time."

"How is this possible?"

Fudge laughed loudly: "I also think he died long ago!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Principal, I'll ask someone to write a letter to the Daily Prophet, let them clarify the facts, explain the truth, and return the magic world to a bright future!"

"A few ignorant wizards spread rumors, don't worry about it."
