Chapter 10 1 Road to the northwest
·
Nian Gao Pei Ma Tuan
The crimson Hogwarts Express headed northwest with billowing smoke.
The milestone was successfully reached, and Glenn relaxed his body with satisfaction and leaned back in the chair.
A thin boy opened the compartment door and stuck his head in.
"I'm really sorry, can I sit here?" He said with a slightly flattering smile on his face, "Every other place is full."
Glenn ignored Morgana on the side and looked at Qiu with searching eyes.
Seeing Qiu Luoluo nodded generously, she invited the boy in.
The boy was wearing a small suit that didn't look very valuable. With Glenn's help, he lifted the heavy suitcase onto the luggage rack. Then he sat near the door, smiled shyly, and brought a small handbag with him. box.
"My name is Eddie Carmichael," he introduced himself, "and I'm the freshman this year."
"What a coincidence," Qiu smiled, "We are also freshmen. My name is Qiu Zhang, and she is Morgana Arthur..."
Morgana glanced up without interest and nodded casually, even as she said hello.
"And Glenn," Cho continued, introducing Glenn Ollivander. "
"Oh! I know you, Glenn!" Eddie's eyes lit up, "You are the next owner of Ollivander's Wand Shop, right?"
Glenn was stunned: "Ah, this is...possible..."
Eddie suddenly became mysterious and whispered: "I heard that the Ollivander family is actually super rich. Although the shop is small and shabby, the entire Diagon Alley is actually their family's property!"
Glenn:? ? ?
Autumn:? ? ?
Morgana:? ? ?
"Why don't I, the next master, know this secret about the world? No, I must question my grandfather after I go back." Glenn secretly made up his mind.
Seeing that everyone was shocked, Eddie became more energetic and became more convincing in the topic he raised.
"Everyone thinks that Gringotts is the oldest building in Diagon Alley. But in fact, Ollivander's Wand Shop is." He said brightly, "The Ollivander family has been around since 380 BC. We started selling wands long before Gringotts!"
Seeing everyone in the cubicle turning their eyes to him, Glenn waved his hands in embarrassment: "I really don't know about industry..."
Qiu didn't care much, but there were two words clearly written on the faces of the other two people - no.letter.
Glenn Ollivander cursed and exited the group chat.
The scenery on both sides quickly receded. The Hogwarts Express had already driven out of the city. There were fewer and fewer blue-gray cement buildings, replaced by endless farms and fields.
The light rain was still falling, and the rainwater slid off the window, leaving shallow water marks.
Eddie was a very discerning person. Seeing that Glenn was unwilling to talk more, Eddie moved his eyes wildly, trying to find a new topic.
Soon, he noticed the badge Qiu wore on her chest.
The badge is sky blue with two dark blue letters "T" printed on it.
"Is that the Tuthill Tornadoes badge?"
Qiu glanced down and nodded: "I have been supporting them since I was six years old!"
Eddie quickly opened his suitcase, which was filled with strange gadgets.
He rummaged carefully, arranging the contents of the box even more chaotically.
Glenn quickly looked away and turned slightly to the side, no longer looking at the messy box.
"Found it!" He took out a blue dynamic little man model.
The villain is riding a broomstick, picking up the golden snitch carelessly and hiding it in his sleeve.
"It's the Prenton Copy Technique!" Qiu looked at the model in surprise and recognized who it was at a glance.
"Yes, it was Rhodri Prenton's wonderful moment!" Eddie said proudly, "I got this from an old Tornadoes fan. I pestered him for a whole month!"
Qiu stared at the model of his idol and copied the flying pirate over and over again, his eyes filled with little stars.
Eddie chuckled and said in a voice like a TV commercial: "First time meeting, special offer, only 10 Galleons!"
Only then did Glenn realize that this guy was dressed just like those door-to-door salesmen.
Qiu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head in disappointment.
Although her family was not as bare as the Weasleys, it was still a bit wasteful to spend 10 Galleons on a small toy that had no practical use.
Eddie, who failed to sell the model, put the model away and laughed awkwardly: "It doesn't matter. I have many interesting gadgets here. If you are interested, you can always come to me."
Qiu nodded half-heartedly and stopped talking.
Glenn, who had woken up early in the morning, was a little sleepy. He looked out the window at the soft drizzle and the greenery everywhere, and was slightly lost in thought.
I don’t know how long it took, but a salesperson with a smile and dimples pushed open the compartment door and broke the silence in the compartment. “Is there any food you need, dears?”
Eddie shook his head, took out two sandwiches from his pocket, and said, "My father said that gold galleons are saved."
Morgana, who had been silent all this time, raised her head and opened her mouth, but didn't say anything, but her face was slightly red.
"Let's have some of everything." The rich second generation Glenn took out a gold galleons and handed it to the salesperson.
The salesperson looked at him in surprise and handed each item over until he could no longer hold it in his arms, then turned around and fell down on the small table in the middle of the compartment.
After going back and forth like this twice, I finally collected a galleons worth of snacks, and a small mountain was piled on the table.
"I accidentally bought too much, let's eat together." Glenn waved his hand, picked up a licorice wand and opened it.
The three people in the carriage didn't move. They all stared at him as if they were crazy. Eddie even had an expression like "You're not a big landowner?"
Glenn picked out a piece of cauldron-shaped cake at random and threw it to Eddie.
Of course, he didn't have money to fill his head, nor was he like the Boy Who Lived, who had never seen the world, but he was doing a small test.
Eddie looked at the cauldron-shaped cake in his hand. The ham sandwich made by his mother suddenly no longer tasted good.
He tore open the package and took a big bite.
He chewed the cake in his mouth and muttered a vague "thank you."
Qiu glanced at the salesman who was devouring his food, smiled, and also picked up a pumpkin pie.
"You should have something to eat too." Glenn looked at Morgana with a straight face, "Give it back to me later along with the wand money."
Morgana didn't say anything, but also picked up the pumpkin pie. Her eyes drifted out of the window, with only a slight arc at the corner of her mouth.
The system light screen appears.
Side character, Eddie Carmichael, friendliness +5, exchange currency +25
Important character, Qiu Zhang, friendliness +10, exchange currency +500
"As expected..." Glenn thought to himself, "The friendliness of Krypton Jinjia is very high."
But the strange thing is that after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Morgana Arthur's name appear on the light screen.
The milestone was successfully reached, and Glenn relaxed his body with satisfaction and leaned back in the chair.
