Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 236 The rich take advantage of

   "Fred and the others should have gone back." Albert got up from the sofa, looked at the gray sky outside the window, and suppressed a yawn. He still remembered that he talked with Dagworth about the field of potions here, and when his mind was tired, he was arranged to rest on the sofa by the house elf.

  Mr. Dagworth is such a good man!

The potion master left Albert with good senses. Being able to treat a child with an equal attitude is really not something that ordinary people can do, let alone Dagworth himself is a famous potion master Grandmaster.

  Perhaps, this is the so-called academic regardless of national boundaries, regardless of personality, and regardless of age!

Of course, Albert didn't realize at all that Dagworth would value him so much. The more reason was that Albert had directly made Dagworth compromise and had nothing to say, and he had excellent potion skills. His talent caused Dagworth to subconsciously ignore Albert's age and treat him directly as a junior of his peers.

Dagworth is also a genius. People like him who have already stood at the top of the industry have everything. After discovering that Albert is very talented, he is actually very willing to give him a hand, because Dagworth is also very talented. It is clear that the development, improvement, invention and innovation of potions cannot be accomplished by him alone.

"Speaking of which, Buffy's brain refresher is really a good thing!" Albert put on his cloak again, and his eyes fell on the long box next to the table, which contained a dried Mandrake root, which he was looking for. Dagworth bought it for a full twenty Galleons.

"In this way, there are no other problems with the materials. However, the ancient rune..." Albert opened his skill panel, and among the many skills, it took a few minutes to find the rune skill, which is one step away from the third level More than 1,800 experience, originally Albert planned to accumulate experience slowly, relying on his own ability to break through to the third level.

  However, it seems that I can't wait now!

   Just then, footsteps were heard in the corridor.

   "Mr. Anderson, are you awake?" The house elf's sharp voice came from not far away.

   "I'm already up." Albert looked at the slightly nervous house elf and smiled, "Please take me back to Hogwarts Castle."

   "It's my honor!" The house elf bowed slightly to Albert, stretched out his hand and said, "Are you ready?"

   "Oh, all right." Albert picked up the box, reached out and grabbed the house elf's hand, letting it take him back to Hogwarts.

   There is not much difference between the apparation of house elves and wizards, and the feeling principle is the same, but it is because the magic system of house elves allows them to ignore the magic that wizards prohibit apparation.

   They appeared in a remote corner of Hogwarts, and no one would notice that a person popped out of here suddenly.

  The gray sky was still covered with goose feather snowflakes, and it was cold outside. Albert immediately tightened the cloak on his body, and looked sideways at the shivering house elf, "Go back, don't freeze."

   "Goodbye, Mr. Anderson." The house-elf disappeared in the blink of an eye.

   Albert looked at the place where the house elf left, turned and returned to the castle.

   Not long after, he found Fred and the others in the auditorium. The three of them were discussing tomorrow's club gathering. After all, as the Big Four of the Wizards Club, the three of them would try their best to help Albert share the pressure.

   "I have good news for you." Fred waved to Albert who was walking this way, and immediately said after he walked to the side: "We have gathered thirty-two contestants."

"It's really good news!" Albert sat next to George, he didn't go to pick up the list handed over by Lee Jordan, but asked curiously: "Why are there so many people participating in the competition all of a sudden? "

   "I don't know who said that you are a rich guy who thinks that the championship prize of the competition will definitely not lack Garen, so..." Fred spread his hands towards Albert, "You understand."

   "The rich take advantage of?" Albert couldn't help but was stunned, and repeated in a murmur. He felt that the guy who would say such a thing was probably the guy who got Garen from him. Then, it is easy to guess who it is, and it is probably one of the McDougal sisters.

  Albert sighed softly, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It turns out that in everyone's eyes, I am taken advantage of by the rich!"

   "I think this suits you quite well." George grinned, "At least, I've grown up so much that I haven't spoiled Garen like you. Speaking of which, what's in the box in your hand?"

   "Mandela grass roots." Albert explained casually.

   "Where did you get it?" Fred opened the box and took a look at what was inside. It was indeed a dried Mandrake root. In other words, such a plant is not common, and the mandrake root raw materials in the pharmacy are all processed.

   "I bought it from Dagworth." Albert blinked and said, "It cost twenty galleons, and I'm going to use it to make a brand new version 2.1 of the protective bracelet."

"I think what they said is right, you are a rich man who took advantage of you." Fred and the others couldn't help covering their faces, and spent twenty Galleons to buy this thing, which was to be used to make protective bracelets , They simply do not know what to say.

   Money is not spent like this!

   "Don't worry, I never trade at a loss." Albert comforted casually. Even the leftovers from making magic items can be used to make other things. After all, the mandrake root itself is a kind of medicinal material, and Albert knows the many uses of the mandrake root. He has many ways to reuse the mandrake root, and there is no waste at all.

   "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, should there be rewards for the second and third place?" Li Qiaodan changed the subject and asked rhetorically

   "And a consolation prize," added Fred

   "The first place can choose a prize from ten galleons and a pair of wizard cards. As for the second place, the prize is a bucket of butterbeer, and the third place gets a brand new quill. There is no consolation prize."

  The three of Fred couldn't help but look at each other. They originally thought that Albert would use Garen instead, but they didn't expect...

   "Is there any question?" Albert noticed the surprise on the faces of Fred and the others, and asked back.

"nothing?"

   "However, what do you mean by wizard card?"

"The cards we will sell in the future!" Albert explained: "We will sell an initial set of cards in the future, and then let players obtain card packs in other ways. The cards in the card packs are different, and, The number of cards is limited. For example, the precious Dumbledore card is a rare card, and the total number is limited to 1,000, that is, there are only 1,000 regular Dumbledore cards, and there will be regular cards below the card. The digital label is as anti-counterfeiting as Gallon. As for the follow-up plan, I need to keep it a secret from you for the time being."
