Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 34 Zuko's Joke Shop

   After the four of them finished drinking butterbeer and came out of the Three Broomsticks, the rain outside became lighter.

   "Let's go to Zonko's Joke Shop first!" Fred suggested, he was worried that after the four of them went to Honeydukes Candy Shop, they would spend all the little change they had left.

   "Okay." Albert looked away from the candy store. In fact, he was also a little curious about what was sold in the joke store that would make the three of them fall in love with each other.

  Zoko's Joke Shop is right next to Honeydukes' candy store, just across from a private house. The shop here is similar to the candy store next to it, with a large glass window, and various joke props are placed inside.

   When the four of them pushed the door and went in, the bell behind the door rang.

   "Welcome." Zuko put down the newspaper, stood up from behind the counter, and welcomed the four young guests with a smile. This is a wizard in his forties with a friendly smile on his face.

   There are many kinds of products in the joke shop. Albert put away his umbrella, walked to the window, and looked at the products on it.

   "Auto-answer quill." Albert whispered the name of the quill.

   "This is a quill for your nasty subjects, it helps

  You wrote most of the topics. "Like a qualified salesman, Joko introduced the functions of the quill to Albert in a humorous tone.

   "It's really a good thing." Albert responded casually, disapproving in his heart. Selling this thing to him is like giving a reference answer to a schoolmaster.

   He obviously doesn't need to.

   On the other side is a broom. Albert looked at his introduction: Broomstick.

  When a wizard tries to ride it into the air, the broom will reverse, making the wizard on the broom face down, and there are 5 modes such as crazy rotation, extreme braking and throwing people out.

   The broom can fly up to 3 meters high.

   This is a toy broom, and the price is 15 Galleons.

   Albert's face twitched, and he turned his head to look at Fred, George, and Lee Jordan. The three were picking props on the counter on the other side. He walked over and saw that there were bars of soap in the row of cabinets, and there were some black spots in the soap.

   Frog egg soap.

  This is the introduction of the joke prop. When you wash it, it will get dirtier and dirtier.

  Beside these soaps were teacups. Albert didn't reach out to touch them, because there were labels on them, biting the teacups.

  Once someone drinks tea from this teacup, it will suddenly bite that person's nose and spill the hot tea in the teacup.

All right!

   If one is not careful, it is estimated that even the wizard will be tricked.

   "What are you going to buy?" Albert asked.

   "Dung bomb." The twins said in unison.

   "Burp candy and squeaky fudge." Albert was embarrassed and didn't buy anything, just bought a few candies.

  Burp candy is a hard lozenge that will cause hiccups for five minutes after eating. As for the squeaky candy, it looks like a little mouse. Fred took the initiative to try one, and after he took a bite, he would scream like a mouse, as if he had really bitten a little mouse, and his mouth grew long in fright. It was so big that the fudge in his mouth fell to the ground.

   "How does it taste?" Albert asked curiously.

   "It's not bad, it's just ordinary fudge."

   "What are you buying?" Albert looked at Lee Jordan.

   "I want to buy this?" He pointed to a Frisbee with sharp teeth on it.

   "This is a spike flying saucer." Zuko picked up a flying saucer and threw it out. All four of them heard the roar of the whistling flying saucer. "You need to be careful when playing this, don't get bitten."

  He took a note and put it in Frisbee's mouth, and it was torn into pieces in the blink of an eye.

   This lethality is not small.

   "I'll see if there are other things." Li Qiaodan looked at the price, a little disappointed. This thing costs three Galleons, and the price is not cheap!

Before leaving, Albert bought two more inflatable screaming inflatable skeletons, which are as big as his fist, and as soon as he throws them out, they will quickly inflate to the height of a person, and they will startle people with screams and explode Sometimes it will scatter white powder and paste others' faces.

Li Qiaodan bought a sticky retractable hand, which can be stretched and stretched at will. After throwing it out, it will grab the ear of the nearest person. Although it will not hurt, it will make a snap when it is retracted, scaring the other party. Jump.

   When the four of them left, they all held large paper bags in their arms, which were filled with things bought at Zuko's joke shop.

  Li Qiaodan also bought a bag of dung bombs.

  The three of them were very curious that Albert didn't buy this thing.

   This is almost a must-buy when they come to Joko's joke shop.

   "No, I'm not interested in that kind of thing." Albert said angrily

  As long as you touch this thing, it will become very dirty, and if you throw it out, it will explode into disgusting sludge, and it will also emit a disgusting smell of rotten eggs.

   It is simply a biological weapon.

   "You better not make the dormitory stinky." Albert warned seriously.

   "Don't worry, we will definitely pay attention to it. We bought this thing to use against Falch." George was obviously still concerned about his punishment for washing the chamber pot.

   "That's a great place, isn't it?" Fred asked with a smile.

   "Great, very interesting place." Albert nodded and admitted, he suddenly remembered something and said, "You seem to like these jokes very much, maybe, you can also open a similar joke shop in the future."

  He still remembers that the twins did open a joke shop after graduation, and it was doing well.

   "That's a good idea." The twins' eyes lit up. Unlike Albert, they never thought about what they would do in the future.

   "I think you need to learn spells well, these things also involve part of alchemy." Albert picked up a candy and looked at it to remind.

   "What about yourself?"

   "I haven't decided yet." Albert is still thinking about it,

He has no plans to give up entering New York finance, after all, it is an easy job. According to the experience and tasks he has accumulated now, after graduation, he can improve the skills of various economics and finance and make money lying down. Sure enough, it is more suitable for him!

  By the way, it seems that the prediction is also good. It can predict that the lottery will be suitable for the lottery, and it will win 100 million U.S. dollars or something.

  Well, it seems that the time-turner is also good, you can win the lottery anytime and anywhere.

   In other words, these seem to be more profitable in finance.

  Albert found that using magic to make reasonable money is also a good idea, but the only problem is that once discovered by the Ministry of Magic, there may be trouble.

  Prophecy may be better, after all, as long as no one knows that he is a prophet, there is no problem.

Just as Albert was thinking about the future, the four of them walked into the Honeydukes candy store. Although the twins had already been emptied of change in Zuko's joke shop, they might as well go into the store to have a look at the products inside, so that they can wait for the next time they have money Come to buy candy again.
