Hogwarts: Opening Shot Dumbledore

Otherwise, why not find a wizard as an assistant for Nina?

"Uh, sir..." At this time, Nina poked her finger and said softly.

"What's up?"

"I sorted it out and listed the shortcomings in the current store. I hope to get funds for rectification from you..." Nina said with a blushing face.

Nina felt really terrible when she reached out to ask for money from her boss on her first day at work.

Chapter 258 Meeting with Quirrell

Yingfei didn't think anything was wrong. If he did something wrong, he had to correct it. This was good.

Taking the notebook from Nina's hand, Yingfei looked through it carefully. After reading it in just a few minutes, Yingfei thought for a while and said: "You mean there are insufficient manpower, no rest area, and insufficient protection measures?"

Nina nodded. In one morning, she could only think of so much. The issue of protective measures was brought up because of those wizards.

Ying Fei only realized this problem due to the shortage of manpower. In his expectation, the store could only have four or five customers at a time. With Nina and Team 141 here, that was enough.

But he really didn't expect that there were so many wizards in the store!

Although these guys don't buy a single gun, as long as they stay in the store for a long time, they will always attract other customers, and someone will always take out the Galleons.

"Then recruit people, recruit people in the wizarding world, and set up a rest area with sofas, coffee tables and the like." Ying Fei said, "For this matter, you can directly contact Xiaotian, the one in the black loli dress over there. Girls, if you need money or anything else from now on, you can ask her for it.”

"Yeah, I know." Nina had met Xiaotian yesterday. After all, her memory of the wizarding world was instilled in her by Xiaotian.

"As for security..." Ying Fei rubbed his temples.

It's really a bit of a headache, because Team 141 has not always been here, and later on, they found someone in the wizarding world to be a waiter 510, and someone has to take care of them. Nina doesn't know magic, so this is impossible.

"You must find a wizard you can trust..."

Suddenly, Ying Fei had a thought in his mind: Will Quilo stop being a professor next semester? Otherwise, it’s okay to let Quirrell come work here!

"I will solve the security issue. Let's talk about today's sales." After deciding, Ying Fei looked at Nina again and asked.

"So far, our store has only two customers, who purchased G-HG01 and G-BAR01 respectively. The customer who purchased BAR01 also bought a G-HE. Neither of them purchased additional bullets." Nina said.

G-HG01 is the serial number of the alchemy shell gun. The name registered on the Anaheim data panel is the alchemy pistol. The price is 10 galleons, which is already more than the price of an ordinary wand.

G-BAR01 is the serial number of the Mosin-Nagant rifle. The name registered on the Anaheim data panel is the alchemy bolt-action rifle. It sells for 14 galleons, twice the price of the wand.

G-HE is the number of the high-explosive grenade. The name registered on the Anaheim data panel is the alchemical high-explosive grenade. The price is 5 galleons, which is extremely close to the price of a wand.

In fact, the effects of these weapons are very powerful. As for why few people buy them, the high price must be one of the reasons.

"Sir, I don't think these wizards really realize the advantages of alchemical firearms compared to magic wands." Nina said softly, "Just from the data panel, all they can see is that they are portable and quick-fire, as simple as that. Just a few words.”

Ying Fei nodded slightly after hearing this.

Alchemy firearms actually have huge advantages over ordinary magic wands. First of all, it is a quick-fire weapon. Any alchemy bullet can be fired directly without the need for extra incantations.

The second is to hit wherever you point, and the rate of fire is extremely fast. Compared to the magic spell shot by the wand, the flight speed of the alchemy bullet far exceeds the speed of the magic spell, making it even more difficult to dodge.

The third is the versatility of alchemical firearms. Different from the beam rifle specially made by Yingfei for armor, alchemy firearms can be filled with various bullets, and the bullets can be made on the spot. If you can cast spells without a wand, the speed of making temporary bullets and firing them will not be faster than that of a wand. slow.

The last and most important point is that alchemy bullets can be stored for a long time. When possessing a large number of alchemy bullets, the user of the firearm can release a large number of magic spells without using any magic power. This is the greatest advantage of alchemy firearms compared to magic wands. The advantages.

Obviously, these wizards who have not purchased firearms and have no understanding of Muggle firearms are not aware of this at all.

"Sir, why don't we test them in public?" Nina suggested, observing Ying Fei's face.

After thinking for a while, Yingfei shook his head: "No need, someone will always notice this. They are more willing to trust consumers who have already purchased firearms than us to test it ourselves."

Nina nodded thoughtfully and closed her mouth.

In the evening, after Ying Fei finished handling other matters, he went to the Leaky Cauldron (bebj) in Diagon Alley alone. In the afternoon, he used link magic to contact Quirrell and asked him to meet here in the evening.

"Boss, look for Quirrell." When he came to the counter, Ying Fei knocked on the table and said to Old Tom.

Tom looked at Ying Fei, nodded, and said: "On the second floor, turn left and enter the third room."

"Thanks."

After stepping onto the second floor, Ying Fei came to the door of Chilo's room and opened the door. At this time, Chilo was sitting at the desk, holding an unknown book and reading it.

"You're here." Hearing the sound of the door opening, Quirrell turned around.

"What are you reading?" Ying Fei glanced at the book in his hand curiously.

Quirrell closed the book and said, "This is the autobiography of Gilderoy Lockhart. It has been a very popular book in recent years, second only to the collection of stories by Peter the Bard."

"When I was at Hogwarts, I heard rumors that Gilderoy would be the next Defense Against the Dark Arts professor." Quirrell said with a smile, "This teacher you have next semester is really interesting. "

Ying Fei paused, heard the meaning of Qiluo's words, and asked, "How do you say it?"

"I have seen this person before. No matter in terms of words, deeds, or magical strength, he has not yet reached the level written in his book. To be honest, I am quite curious." Quirrell squinted his eyes. Since Voldemort temporarily After his death, Quirrell's magic gradually recovered, and now he can have sex with Snape.

"The funniest thing is, do you know how bad Snape looked after hearing about this? Hahaha..."

Thinking of Snape's Sima face, Ying Fei couldn't help but laugh, but he still asked: "You mean, you think there is something wrong with Gilderoy Lockhart?"

Quirrell nodded: "Either, his strength is more than that, and he can usually pretend to hide his clumsiness, but since he writes so clearly in the book, there is no need to hide it in reality, right?"

"Another possibility is that all of his experiences were made up, or simply copied from others. It's just unclear what method he used to silence those who were copied."

Ying Fei listened to Qiluo's analysis and nodded secretly.

Quirrell was able to analyze these things without knowing the plot, which is enough to prove that his brain is still very good.

"Let's not talk about this matter for now. I want to talk to you about another matter." Ying Fei waved his hand and said.

After hearing this, Quirrell said seriously: "Please speak."

"I opened a shop in Diagon Alley, specializing in selling alchemy firearms. At present, although there are many people who know about it, there are very few people who buy it. However, I don't have enough manpower here, so I would like to ask you to come and help look after the store. .”

Yingfei said: "The salary will be paid to you every day every month, and it will not be less than when you were a professor."

After listening to this, Quirrell asked: "Is it the Anaheim magic pattern technology?"

"You know?" Ying Fei raised his eyebrows.

"Your store has been spread all over the streets now. It's because your news is too limited." Quirrell looked at him strangely, took out a Daily Prophet from the drawer and handed it to him:

"See for yourself.".

Chapter 259 Deal with it

"Shocking! The new mysterious white shop appears in Diagon Alley, displaying breathtaking magical achievements!"

"What kind of impact will the new offensive magic props have on the current wizarding world?"

"Anaheim's magic pattern technology looks magnificent, but in fact it is completely unscrupulous!"

"With such amazing magic pattern technology, why doesn't Anaheim produce alchemy firearms somewhere else?"

"It's really ridiculous for a great wizard to forge Muggle items. What kind of items are alchemical firearms? Now let reporter Rita report for you... -"

Just after reading the first half, Ying Fei frowned deeply.

This article was even worse than Yingfei imagined. It first described the high-end Anaheim store and the various magical magic pattern technologies that were dizzying. It also highlighted the air conditioner and the hologram in front of the display cabinet that could be opened at any time. Screen.

Under this fascinating foreshadowing, the author finally wrote about the product for sale in Anaheim: alchemy firearms, and completely abandoned his previous praise of Anaheim.

"It's completely unimaginable that such a company with strong magical capabilities would produce such magical items that imitate Muggle weapons!"

The following words did not even mention the performance of alchemical firearms. Instead, they talked about the fact that Anaheim Company imitated Muggle weapons. They even found pictures of prototypes of alchemical firearms in the Muggle world. A comparison was made on the spot.

"Except for a little color, there is almost no change! Can we wizards really use such a Muggle weapon? Do we really have the face to use it? Or is it really necessary to use it?"

At the same time, the author directly named Yingfei, writing in the newspaper: "What is the intention of the founder of Anaheim Company in making offensive props like firearms? Does he have dangerous ideas? Does he want to overthrow Rule by the Ministry of Magic? Want to follow You-Know-Who's path?"

"Does he know that once firearms are sold in large quantities, a large number of wizards may die because of his firearms?"

"Forging Muggle firearms and selling such dangerous goods in Diagon Alley, is he an undercover agent sent by Muggles to the wizarding world?"

"How should we deal with such a company with considerable magical attainments?"

"Reporter Rita, continue to follow up your reports..."

After Ying Fei read the newspaper, his face was really ugly.

This author did not mention the function of alchemy firearms at all, but insisted on the appearance of the firearms. He even blatantly suggested that Ying Fei has an anti-wizard tendency. He really dared to say it without any basis.

There was a photo of the store's furnishings in front of it, and it looked like what it was. Ying Fei was quite happy at first... Now that I think about it, it's a good idea to promote it first and then suppress it!

"Rita, right..." Ying Fei squinted at the newspaper in his hand. He had a vague impression of the author. He was a very annoying female reporter, an insect animagus, who liked to speak unabashedly and wantonly exaggerate.

But what Ying Fei had to admit was that Rita was very capable.

She is very good at capturing readers' psychology and can always write reports that readers want to read and are willing to read, even though these reports are all false.

Moreover, her report this time is really not false. The furnishings in Yingfei's store and the magic on display are real. The shape of the alchemy firearms sold is very close to Muggle firearms. This is also fact.

The only thing that was not reported truthfully was the function of alchemical firearms. Rita directly classified the capabilities of alchemical firearms into the same category as Muggle firearms, and described alchemical firearms as color-changing skins of Muggle firearms.

Then there are the malicious speculations and associations about Yingfei, the founder of Anaheim, which is also the biggest headache for Yingfei.

The function of alchemy firearms can be easily discovered from people who have bought it, but the slander against Ying Fei cannot be proved clearly at once.

"Sir, Rita's reporting style has always been like this. Many people know that she is exaggerating, so there is no need to worry." Chilo looked at Ying Fei's face and comforted her.

"The real problem is not here." Yingfei said.

"You have seen my alchemy firearm before, and you know its capabilities. Frankly speaking, what do you think of it?"

Quirrell thought for a while and replied: "For young wizards, it is an extremely useful self-defense product. For ordinary adult wizards, it is also a very deterrent weapon. Very few wizards can escape a sneak attack." Bullets coming."

Ying Fei nodded: "This function will soon be discovered by most people, especially the Ministry of Magic."

"So?" Quirrell frowned, "I don't understand. Even if the Ministry of Magic knows the true function of the alchemical firearms, what will happen?"

"With this report, they can look for opportunities to have sex for free."

Ying Fei patted the newspaper in his hand: "They can use my bad intentions as an excuse to order me to stop production and hand over the products, thereby obtaining a large number of weapons without spending any money."

"This..." Quirrell thought doubtfully: "I think this is too far-fetched? And there is no need for the Ministry of Magic to do this?"

"Do you think these people are too bad?"

After hearing this, Ying Fei was also a little confused.

Why can't you help but think that the Ministry of Magic would do this? What if someone is honest enough to help me clarify the rumors and purchase a batch of firearms in full?

·····Ask for flowers··········

For a moment, Ying Fei felt that she might be suspicious. Although it is a good thing to remain vigilant, isn't his own behavior also malicious speculation about others?
