Hogwarts I am Miss Ka's Dog
Chapter 37. Tricks to save money
Holding the nives in her hands, Hermione placed the small piece of meat next to its mouth, being careful to prevent the nives from suddenly opening its teeth and biting her hand off.
Animals are protective of their food and may even bite their owners.
"Meow meow----"
Putting the meat to his mouth, Catnives turned his head to the side and did not open his mouth to eat the piece of meat handed to her by Hermione.
With timid little eyes, he clearly wanted to eat but forced himself not to eat.
"Although it has good abilities that can help its owner avoid danger, it lacks many other abilities, so it is not popular among the magical animals that can be bred."
To be honest, Ricardo's evaluation of Mao Lizi barely reached one star.
"In addition, cat nives are very active and often disappear alone for a period of time. They make noisy noises at night. When they grow up, they will return to their wild nature and have aggressive behaviors such as scratching. In addition, cat nives are sensitive to smells. If Girls wearing irritating perfumes can cause overreactions in cats."
Not suitable for girls to keep.
All he had to do was say these words directly.
The summary is that the advantages are not outstanding enough, it is not very powerful in the later stage, and its breeding value is low. Snakes, lizards, and spiders all have more breeding value than cats and civets.
The disadvantages are obvious. The more other animals are raised, the more docile they become. Cats and civets will return to their wild nature after being raised. They are allergic to girls' perfumes and are noisy and troublesome at night.
"Then... why don't you put it down?"
Hermione also felt sorry for this little guy, but after listening to Ricardo's description and making a comparison with rational thinking, the breeding value of the cat nives was not the best option.
In addition, now she does not live alone, but is boarding at Senior Warley's house. If raising a cat nivet causes senior sister trouble, Hermione will be even more embarrassed.
Willfulness belongs to children, and Hermione is more mature at heart.
The breeding problem of the cat nives cannot be solved, and the problem of feces is troublesome. If the perfume allergy attacks Senior Wo Lei, Senior Wo Lei will be injured.
"Sorry, little one, I can't feed you."
Whispering an apology, Hermione put the cat down.
Moreover, I am penniless, so how can I raise pets? Is it possible to shift the pressure to others, Ricardo or Senior Sister Woley?
There were still some pieces of meat in his hand. Looking at the pitiful appearance of the cat, he threw them all on the ground in front of him.
"Meow meow meow----"
After calling twice, the cat nives confirmed that Hermione was not going to take it away. He lowered the cat's head in despair, and the cat ears on both sides also drooped down.
As for the meat slices on the ground, he didn't eat a single bite. The slightly stronger cat nives next to him rushed forward and ate the few meat slices.
Turning their heads, these cats and dogs shouted at the same time, throwing food at Hermione.
They are also smart. They know that other children will at most play with them, but it is absolutely impossible to buy them food. Hermione seems to be rich and can provide them with food.
Seeing this scene, Ricardo took action in advance.
[Simultaneous Magic. Storm Barrier]——Wave it in front of you, forming a protective shield with your sister Cassandra as the center, containing Hermione and protecting her within the barrier.
Mao Lizi tried to pounce on him, but was blocked by an invisible wind wall and bounced away heavily.
Hermione never thought that these cats and dogs would suddenly swarm forward.
Looking more closely, the cat that was just put down looked like an unsocial child, being robbed of food by its larger peers and squeezed outside.
When others of the same kind rushed forward, it just hung its head and lay down, disappointed that it was not lovable.
"Buy it."
Kassandra didn't like the smell of the Magical Creatures store and felt like the air was filled with fleas.
As for Hermione wanting to take one back with her, just buy it.
"But pets will disturb seniors, and I don't have the financial strength to raise them."
I felt sorry for this naughty cat in my heart, but Hermione didn't have the bad temper of a child. She had to cry and cry until she got one before she could stop. She let reason dominate her thinking.
It's just that students themselves need their parents to provide even living expenses. How can they keep pets and put the pressure back on their parents?
His parents were reluctant to part with him, let alone his senior sister who he had known for a few days and was very kind to him.
"..."
Seeing Hermione's sensible but confused look, Cassandra could not continue to persuade the little girl.
As teachers and parents, Hermione would be more praised for her sensible behavior, but for Cassandra, what she needs is not an obedient girl.
He glanced at his younger brother and gave a look.
Ricardo understood his sister's thoughts, took out two gold galleons from his pocket, and threw them towards the counter.
The house elf at the counter controlled the flying coins with his slender fingers, put them into the drawer, turned around and jumped off the high stool, rummaged through to find a bag of cat feed, and then walked out of the counter with a hunched back.
The cat feed, controlled by a levitating spell controlled by the house elf, flew from the counter to Hermione's feet.
"Sir, do you need help with anything else?"
He said to Ricardo piously and humbly.
House elves have a low status and look the same as the goblins of Gringotts, but they are born to be marked as slaves.
There was nowhere to place his long fingers, so he had to close them together in a flattering gesture.
"Feed delivered to Woley House in Hogward Village."
Ricardo looked at the sack. The feed was ordinary feed, but it was troublesome to carry in his hands, and he had no space-type props on him. He took out a Sickle from his pocket and handed it to the house elf.
It’s not like talking about slavery in the first place.
It pays for services and Ricardo pays for the deal.
Moreover, the house elves in the shop are different from the private house elves. The former will often ask for tips, and the money they earn determines their value. The latter are the private property of the owner and are not allowed to take gifts from anyone other than the owner, otherwise they will be considered It's rebellion.
"Thank you for your consumption, as you wish, sir."
Taking Sickle with both hands, the house elf bowed again. His already stooped back now had a curved pointed nose that could touch his knees.
Continue to control the feed to fly to the back door, and then go to deliver it in person. Not all wizards like stupid owl delivery.
On the side, Hermione still had a blank expression and was extremely conflicted inside.
Although neither Cassandra nor Ricardo said anything, judging from their behavior, the senior sister had arranged for Ricardo to buy the cat raccoon for herself.
Obviously, his life depends on two people, but now he is taking care of himself and sending a cat as a gift. His mood is so heavy and breathless due to this kindness.
"Brother, do you have anything else you need to buy?"
Before Hermione could speak, Cassandra saw that the matter was resolved and continued to speak to Ricardo.
This sentence has two meanings.
On the surface, he asked his brother if there was anything he needed to buy, but behind this sentence, he meant that if there were no magical animals to buy, Ricardo would leave together and no longer need to stand guard here for Professor McGonagall.
Not to mention that the future son-in-law of the Woley family is standing guard here, even if he is now able to make metal wands and magic props, he does not need to do such lowly things.
Goodness is good, but Cassandra couldn't bear to see her brother being treated poorly by someone other than herself.
The hands below had already embraced Ricardo's arms.
"I don't want to buy anything."
Shaking his head, Ricardo obeyed his sister's arrangement.
As for the care issues explained by Professor McGonagall, there is no need to worry now, the Magical Creatures Shop has already taken care of it.
When I came two days ago, all the children present were children from wizarding families, who were able to adapt to the existence of various magical animals. When choosing magical animals, the focus was on future potential.
The children present today are children from ordinary families. They put away the magical animals that are dangerous and not ornamental in advance. The only ones left outside are the magical animals that are not dangerous and can be ornamental.
The difference between the powerful party and the appearance party can be made the moment you enter the store.
……
Coming out of the Fantastic Beasts Shop, Hermione hugged the cat Nivea, who had been named Crookshanks.
If we follow the 'original book', this cat has been kept here for two years, and was not bought by Hermione until Sirius was born.
"Meow meow----"
There was no active jumping around, just lying in Hermione's arms.
Just like Hermione now, she showed a sensitive attitude because she was wary of the unfamiliar world.
"Senior Worley, Ricardo...thank you..."
Hermione lowered her head and said to the two siblings walking in front.
Ever since she entered the magical world, the siblings had taken more care of her than they did for ordinary people, which made Hermione feel guilty.
It seems that saying thank you seems pale.
"Don't worry, let's go to the cold drink shop and take a rest."
It was already after nine o'clock when I came to Diagon Alley, and it was already 10:30 when I came out after shopping at Crookshanks, when the sun is at its hottest.
Cassandra felt a little uncomfortable. Her fair skin was stinging from the sun. She didn't apply any skin cream, and her sweat stained her collar and the back of her neck.
I am very concerned about how my brother looks in front of me.
Go to the second floor of the cold drink shop to enjoy ice cream and take a break to cool off.
Part of the reason is that the flow of people during this time is too large, parents and students mix together, and the bookstore, crucible shop, robe shop, etc. are all full of people.
These gorgeously decorated shops are attracted and sought after, just like specialty shops in the ordinary world. The materials and quality are even inferior to ordinary shops. The prices are dozens of times more expensive, but people still spend a lot of money to buy them.
Among these people, Ricardo accidentally spotted a familiar figure.
It's Mrs. Weasley.
She was holding a stack of clothes and walking out of Madam Malkin's robe store, walking through the crowd towards the second-hand robe shop.
I still remember that that robe was the one Ron wore a few days ago, and it was also the magic robe that Ron's brothers took off.
The journey was the same. When the three of them went to the cold drink shop, they also saw Mrs. Weasley in the second-hand robe shop.
She was pointing to the modification lines that had been drawn on the old robe, signaling to the owner of the second-hand robe to modify the clothes for her.
"Because it was originally a magic robe designed by Madam Malkin, so I took Ron to Madam Malkin's place to make modifications..."
"But in terms of modification costs, Madam Malkin's price was even higher, so I took my clothes to the second-hand magic robe shop and modified the robe according to the modification marks that Madam Malkin had drawn."
This is a good way!
Let Mrs. Malkin help modify Ron's robe first, because Mrs. Malkin specializes in specialty sales and will not charge a deposit for modifications. During modification, you only need to pay for the materials.
He turned around and took the clothes marked for modification to a second-hand shop. There was no need to pay for the modification. The clothes were modified according to the size. The material was of mediocre and durable type, which was much cheaper than Mrs. Malkin's consumption.
It is expected that gold Galleons will not be used, a few copper Nats will solve the problem.
"Save money!"
Animals are protective of their food and may even bite their owners.
"Meow meow----"
Putting the meat to his mouth, Catnives turned his head to the side and did not open his mouth to eat the piece of meat handed to her by Hermione.
With timid little eyes, he clearly wanted to eat but forced himself not to eat.
