Harry Potter: We are all descendants of our ninth uncle!
Chapter 58 Sustainability
......
"This is not contraband, this is material used to make clothes in the underworld."
Li Xian explained:
"If you don't believe it, you can ask Bloody Balor or Peeves..."
As soon as he heard Peeves, a flash of anger flashed in Filch's eyes.
Of course he knew about it, and now the whole castle knew about it - all because of Peeves' big mouth.
But this doesn't make him give up. He even wants to destroy these so-called materials so that guys like Peeves can't get new clothes.
Just then, Snape appeared.
With Professor Snape standing up to explain, Filch had no reason to find fault, especially when he noticed that there seemed to be only ashes from the bottom of the pot inside his robes.
After all, no one thought that this young man would have included the accidental inspection. Anyone who first glanced at him would only pay attention to the robe in his arms, and therefore neglect to check his pockets.
Even the matter of Peeves deliberately irritating Filch and using the materials for clothes in the underworld was part of the plan. In order to consolidate the above arrangements...
Of course, there is one more crucial point, and it is right in front of you.
Afterwards, Bloody Barro came after hearing the news, which made Filch want to leave here quickly.
After Filch left, Snape was about to turn around and leave.
At this time, Li Xian shouted at his back: "Merry Christmas, Professor Snape! Aren't you going to the auditorium?"
"I just came out of the auditorium."
Snape replied in a cold voice. Then he walked as fast as usual, without any intention of slowing down.
Until he returned to the office alone and looked at the opened gift box still on the table. Inside the box was a peace charm with oriental characteristics.
It came from the boy who helped him when he passed by just now... He didn't understand why the boy gave him this thing, but as far as he knew, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick also received it. Planting peace talismans must be some kind of tradition among their Easterners!
Snape put the peace charm in the drawer and ignored it. Because today he has seen better gifts...
As for Li Xian, after Bloody Barro repeatedly confirmed that Filch had left, he was also ready to leave.
"When will the clothes arrive?"
"Don't worry! Mrs. Gray will be here soon..."
Li Xian suddenly realized something and shut up immediately, looking at the shocked expression on Bloody Barro's face.
Li Xian sighed helplessly and said:
"I will as soon as possible."
After that, only the bloody Barrow with a complicated expression was left standing there for a long time. Looking out from the window in the corridor, he happened to be able to see the direction of Ravenclaw Tower.
Hidden there was his guilt and love that had stayed in the world for hundreds of years.
.......
After returning to the dormitory, Li Xian quickly wrote two letters, took out some snake skin samples and sandwiched them between them, and then sent the letters.
One is sent to Knockturn Alley, his paper man clone Li Xian; the other is sent to his senior brother Wencai.
Looking at the prices of this snakeskin in the two places, you will definitely choose the one with the higher price in the end.
After that, Li Xian went to the Ravenclaw bathroom and took a shower. After washing up, he fell asleep directly.
On the next day, Li Xian received the sample from Knockturn Alley and quickly figured out the price.
The highest bidder was Caractacus Bock, the owner of Knockturn Alley's Borgenberg store.
As the largest black marketeer in the entire Knockturn Alley black market.
The items in his store are so attractive, and almost everything contains unknown and dangerous powers.
Anyone who can open such a shop must be a good boss, and Tom Riddle, also known as Lord Voldemort, didn't even go to the Ministry of Magic after graduating, so he had to work in his shop.
Voldemort's ingenuity can see the value of this store.
Because of this, Mr. Borgin must have known a lot about the young Voldemort. Even the nobleman Lucius Malfoy would politely call him Mr. Borgin.
As for the snakeskin sample...it was as big as a palm, and Mr. Borgin offered a high price of 100 Galleons gold coins!
Oh my god!
Li Xian looked back at his inventory that still had twenty feet - facing this windfall, Li Xian suddenly had the idea to prevent Harry from killing the snake with the Sword of Gryffindor in the second year. Weird idea.
Then keep it in captivity and wait for it to shed its skin! ! !
Facing this sudden windfall, the paper man clone Li Xian still remained calm. He noticed Mr. Bo Jin looking at him and said immediately:
"Mr. Borgin really knows his stuff."
"After all, it's not the first time I've seen him."
Mr. Borgin said: "Decades ago, a boy who refused to work at the Ministry of Magic after graduation also sold me this thing. Rare things are more valuable...Slytherin himself The basilisk I cultivated is one of the most terrifying creatures in dark magic. In my opinion, it is probably invincible..."
Li Xian still maintained an expressionless posture:
Huh, invincible? Where do you place Fawkes the Phoenix and the Sword of Gryffindor, and Harry's protagonist aura?
Of course, what Mr. Bojin calls invincible is when the above three combinations are not encountered...
Mr. Bo Jin is a very qualified black marketeer. He doesn't ask any questions, just pays the money and delivers the goods.
Taking the heavy bag of gold coins, Li Xian walked out of the Bojinberg store.
"You can't be too ostentatious...at least you can't take out all the inventory at once, otherwise...you can't be sure what the boss will do because of this."
Soon after, Wencai also received a reply.
Although the price of this snake skin is very rare, not many people know about it... and Wencai speculated based on the snake skin that the gallbladder of such a poisonous snake is definitely priceless.
Li Xian said he would not consider this method of killing chickens to retrieve eggs for the time being.
If there was really a way to keep the basilisk in captivity, Li Xian would naturally choose sustainable development.
After deciding on the next sales channel and direction, Li Xian put aside what he was doing and looked at the time...
"It's dinner time again, let's get started!"
In the auditorium, Li Xian looked at the old people who had long been tired of eating, and couldn't help but rush to the kitchen to ask the house elf in charge:
"Can't we try some new dishes? Whole soy milk fried dough sticks will do... I can tolerate even soy milk!"
But the man in charge of the kitchen... said calmly:
"Eat it or not. I've been here for five hundred years and no one has ever complained about my cooking skills. You're the only one from the East who has a lot of troubles."
It stands to reason that house elves are all respectful when facing humans, except for a few... the elf chef in front of him belongs to this category.
The reason - probably because the entire Hogwarts thought there was nothing wrong with his cooking skills!
"Hey! I'm still not convinced! Give me a pot!"
"It's forbidden to take things out of the kitchen!"
"Okay! Just pretend I can't find the pot! I will learn from Chen Caiyun today..."
Li Xian turned around and left the kitchen.
The elf chef asked doubtfully:
"Who is Chen Caiyun?"
Half an hour later, a house elf came to the kitchen and carried a bunch of ingredients to go to the Great Hall!
"Do you want students to eat raw food? It will ruin their stomachs? Who is responsible? You? Or me?"
The house elf who was scolded by the elf chef said with an aggrieved face:
"It's that first-year student from the East. He asked for raw ingredients and said he would make a hot pot for everyone to try!"
"Hot pot??? He has the ability to cook the whole pot first...wait..."
The elf chef suddenly thought of something:
"It seems that the crucible is also a pot..."
ps: The second update needs praise and reminders for updates. Don’t keep books. Thank you everyone!
