Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

Chapter 94 Big Deal

In the second week of the Easter holiday, Kyle still maintained the same habit as before, leaving the common room after breakfast every day and not returning until the evening.

But instead of going to the library or the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor, he stayed in an abandoned classroom on the third floor of the castle all day.

And it wasn't just him, there were Fred from Gryffindor, George from Gryffindor, Cho Chang from Ravenclaw, and Connor and Cedric.

There are six people in total, busy in this small classroom.

"Kyle, can you take a look at this pattern?" Qiu Zhang put down the knife in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I feel something is wrong."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if there are some small flaws." Kyle said without raising his head: "No one can see it anyway, it's about that."

Kyle also holds a small knife in his left hand and a branch in his right

—Sorbust branches, the ones brought back from the Forbidden Forest.

Kyle first peeled off the bark and excess parts, and then skillfully used the knife in his hand to carve irregular lines on it.

Soon, an oval wooden pendant was ready, and the surface of the pendant was engraved with a crossed figure of a wand and a quill.

Next to him, there are many similar pendants, including oval, triangular and square ones.

The other five people, like Kyle, changed directly from a wizard to a carpenter, fiddling with those branches.

When it was almost noon, Fred patted the sawdust on his body, looked at his "fruits of labor" all morning, and couldn't help frowning: "Kyle, can these things we make really be sold?"

Others raised their heads and looked at Kyle after hearing the words.

They were called here by Kyle two days ago, saying that they were going to make a big deal.

With the successful experience of selling maps before, they were quite excited at the beginning, and they didn't doubt anything. They cooperated very well and followed Kyle's arrangement.

Unexpectedly, Kyle actually took them to cut the wood for two days, and did not allow magic, the kind that was purely hand-cut.

This made a few people a little confused.

"it should be OK."

Kyle thought for a while and said, "Sorberry tree amulets are still quite popular in the magic world."

"Wait...we're making amulets?" George asked in disbelief.

The main reason is that they had no previous experience as carpenters. Although the things they carved were not ugly, they were not very beautiful, and the shapes were even more strange.

Even he would not dare to call such crudely made things a talisman against his conscience.

"What you and Fred made were just lumps of wood." Kyle said, "But it will be different after Connor and the others carve patterns on it."

Several people looked at each other in dismay, expressing doubts about Kyle's words.

Unless these patterns are special magical symbols, such as ancient runes, otherwise, even if a hundred of them are engraved, they are still just lumps of wood.

"Speaking of this..." Cedric couldn't help asking at this moment: "What kind of pattern is this? I've never seen it before."

"That is a sign of passing the exam, and it can also be understood as passing every exam."

Kyle thought for a while and explained: "At the wizarding conference in 1990, the bill establishing the Wizarding Examination Authority was officially passed, and in the same year, Hogwarts conducted the first NEWTs exam.

At that time, little wizards who passed the exam would get a special letter from the Ministry of Magic, and the envelope was printed with the pattern of quills and wands crossing each other.

Later, this pattern became a symbol of passing the exam. At that time, many students who were about to graduate would draw this pattern before the exam and carry it with them in order to draw a good omen.

However, after Professor Marchban became the head of the examination bureau, this pattern was removed and replaced with a very ordinary envelope. "

Fred and the others stared at Kyle dumbfounded, and subconsciously asked: "1990, that was already 200 years ago, how do you know these things?"

"Read a book."

Kyle shrugged, and said calmly: "If you have finished reading "Hogwarts: A School History", you won't be so surprised."

Reading a book...that's okay.

Fred and George turned their heads at the same time and gave Kyle a thumbs up.

The book "Hogwarts: A History of the School" is so big and thick that it can be used as a shield when you hold it up. When you have nothing to do, you can turn a few pages to see what you are interested in. So hard for them.

And let alone Fred and George, even Cedric hasn't read it.

But that's not the point.

After such an explanation, they also understood what Kyle meant.

While these sorrel objects aren't really amulets at all, it's undeniable that they're really attractive.

Especially at this time.

Even Fred and George were a little tempted.

If someone had sold it before finals last year, they probably would have paid for it.

"But Kyle, can't we use the copy spell?" Qiu Zhang asked suspiciously: "It's just like the previous map, how easy it is."

"Of course, but that is another price."

Kyle shook his fingers, "I'm going to make three grades of products this time, high-end customized ten Galleons, pure handmade... That's the two Galleons we're making now, and finally a one-off mass product , five Sickles."

"Is it so cheap?" Qiu Zhang didn't understand.

You must know that a map costs ten Sickles, and it is also a replica, but it is much more troublesome to replicate this kind of sculpture than a map.

Without waiting for Kyle to explain, Cedric next to him seemed to think of something, turned around and asked, "How much pocket money do you have now?"

"Pocket money?" Qiu Zhang thought for a while and said, "I spent a lot of money a while ago, and now I have about one Galleon left..."

Suddenly, her voice paused, and a dazed look appeared on her face.

"Understand."

Kyle said with a smile: "It's the end of the semester, most people don't have much money, if the price is too high, they can't afford it even if they want to.

And this time we are no longer just targeting freshmen in the first grade, but the whole school. The number is several times higher than before, so five west is enough, and it is considered as making friends. "

Everyone automatically ignored Kyle's last sentence. If I remember correctly, he said the same thing when he sold the map.

Wu Xi is making friends, but what about the other two...

Fred and George lowered their heads without saying a word, and the branches in their hands seemed to be in the shape of Galleons at this moment, and what they had to do was to buckle these Galleons out.

"By the way..." Kyle seemed to suddenly think of something at this time, and said, "The ones that were not made by the copying spell, remember to engrave the year at the end."
