Chapter 99 Let’s go to Paris!
While the five people were talking, the Hogwarts Express slowly passed through ordinary towns one after another; after a while, the train finally stopped at platform nine and three-quarters of King's Cross Station.
There are too many students getting off the bus at this time. If they all come out at once, it will easily arouse the idea of the station administrator. After a long time, the five people who had changed their clothes passed the inspection of a wizened old security guard. Because only two or three people were allowed to pass at one time, Wright and Chang Chu came out separately from Harry and the others.
People kept passing by the two of them, calling Harry's name.
Not far from the exit, several adults were already waiting there.
Wright saw a middle-aged man who had a very deep impression on him looking coldly at the hand he and Chang Chu were holding, and couldn't help but feel a slight bitterness at the corner of his mouth.
"Chang Chu, my stomach hurts a little. I need to go to the toilet first. No need to wait for me. Happy summer vacation!" Wright said goodbye to Chang Chu in a hurry, and then left before Chang Chu came here. .
Chang Chu blinked. She had just wanted to introduce Wright to her father to get to know him, but she didn't expect that the usually calm Wright would be so timid about this kind of thing.
"What's wrong, senior?" Hermione stepped forward and asked Chang Chu.
"Nothing." Chang Chu said, "Happy summer vacation, Hermione."
Just after several people said goodbye to each other, Chang's father also regained control of the cold expression on his face and walked towards Chang Chu with a smile on his face. The summer vacation officially began.
…
On the other side, Wright, who had apparated to the Leaky Cauldron in the toilet of the train station, had already opened a room and was taking the mok bag to Diagon Alley to sell the two unicorns he had gained in school this year. Beast tail.
Ollivander's Wand Shop.
"Ten galleons? That's one galleon?" Wright tightly held the two unicorn tails he had already processed in his hands and looked at Ollivander with a surprised look on his face, "How do I remember? Ten galones?"
"What ten galleons? Where did you get the news? Why didn't I know?" Ollivander took off the glasses on his eyes, which he had just worn to check the quality of the unicorn hair sent by Wright. I brought it on purpose, "A complete wand only costs seven galleons. How can a unicorn tail hair sell for ten galleons?"
"Then let's take a look at how many Galleons these unicorn hairs can probably sell for?" Although Wright was a little reluctant, he still reluctantly accepted the news that the price of unicorn tail hairs had jumped off the building. After all, these tail hairs were simply worthless to him. Useless.
"You know, not every hair on the unicorn tail can be used to make the core of the wand." A light flashed in Ollivander's eyes, "And your two unicorn tails have been It’s been a while since I took it off, and its activity has dropped a lot.”
"Also, I usually don't buy unicorn tail hair from retail investors; and I usually don't buy too much at one time, because it's very difficult to preserve it..." Ollivander continued.
"How much is the total?" Wright said impatiently. Of course he knew that although Ollivander may have said this for the same reason as he said, the main reason was to cut down the price.
"Five thousand Galleons." Ollivander reported a number.
"What the hell?" Wright's eyes widened.
"Fifty-five hundred, not even one more Nat." Ollivander said.
"Six thousand?" Wright asked tentatively.
"Deal!" Ollivander said instantly, "I'm going to get the money right now. You wait here for a while."
Oh my gosh, this stick-making old man is quite good at business! Wright stared at Ollivander's back as he disappeared behind the hall.
Also, these two unicorn tails are worth six thousand Galleons, so why did I go so hard to find Fred and George to exchange for the one or two hundred Galleons? Wright looked at the two unicorn tails in his hands speechlessly.
…
After dealing with the unicorn tail hair, Wright complained about Ollivander's trait of being a profiteer while using Apparition to rush to Nicoléme's residence in Devon.
Just like the first time he came, it was still the house that Perenal led Wright into, and Nicoléme was still sitting on the lounge chair in the living room and resting like last time.
Wright sat next to Nicoléme, took out the magic stone from the Mock bag, then put it on the table and handed it to Nicoléme without any hesitation.
If he had sold the unicorn tail hair for 6,000 galleons, Wright would definitely have been reluctant to part with it for a while, but now that he had the 6,000 galleons, he could drink a bowlful of dragon blood, and still What kind of bike do you want?
"Teacher, your magic stone." Wright said.
But what Wright didn't expect was that Nicoléme waved his hand without interest.
"I'll give you this Philosopher's Stone!" Nicoléme said. "I originally planned to give this Philosopher's Stone to Dumbledore as bait. I had already planned to completely destroy it, but I didn't expect it. You can still get it back.”
"Give...give it to me?" Wright moved the magic stone back reflexively, not taking it seriously, not taking it seriously, and giving it to me for free, right?
Besides, Wright doesn't have the ability to make the magic stone now. Being able to come into contact with the magic stone, which is the pinnacle of ordinary alchemy, every day is of great benefit to his alchemy attainments. What's more, the Philosopher's Stone can turn stone into gold. Gringotts has a limit on pounds, but there is no limit on pure gold!
"Yes, for you." Nicoléme looked at Wright with some humor. Since he refined the magic stone based on the "Book of Abraham", he has never tasted the taste of poverty again. Nicole Flamel, who started out as a copywriter in Paris, later also engaged in charity activities and donated money to build many hospitals and churches during his life.
"Besides the Philosopher's Stone, do you have anything else?" Nicoléme asked Wright.
"No more for now, the next step is to continue studying alchemy." Wright shook his head.
"Then if there is no problem, let's set off now!" Nicoléme stood up, and Wright discovered that Perenal was already standing behind Nicoléme with a smile.
Nico Flamel took out a gorgeously decorated golden scepter from somewhere that was as tall as anyone else, and punched the ground hard.
Continuous ripples began to spread out from the ground where Nicoléme's golden scepter had touched. The two-story building slowly began to fold and shrink until it turned into a palm-sized box. But Flamel put it in his pocket.
"Where are we going?" Wright looked at the empty surroundings and asked Nicoléme.
"My hometown, Paris."
