Chapter 350 Ministry of Magic
Generally speaking, the gathering place in the Fire Dragon Reserve is pretty good, and it's not as messy as Chris said.
At least Kyle didn't meet any strange people here.
It's just that those shopkeepers are all too wicked, and they always sell him wronged products that are expensive and impractical.
Fortunately, Charlie followed. As a "local" who has lived here for two years, he has long been familiar with every shop.
Most of the shopkeepers sighed resentfully when they saw him follow, and instead of trying to sell Kyle the explosive products they said, they moved out the real good things from the corner.
All in all, this trip was very fruitful for Kyle, and he bought nearly 300 galleons of stuff.
At the end, when Charlie looked at him again, his heart skipped a beat.
He knew that Kyle was rich, but he didn't expect to be so rich...Everything was bought by the box, especially when buying those accessories, it almost filled up the inventory in the store.
Even if there is a discount, you can't do it like this... Over 300 Galleons are spent without blinking an eye.
Charlie also tried to persuade Kyle to take it easy, money is not such a waste.
But Kyle shook his head, "You don't understand, Charlie, it might not be enough."
If his box hadn't been borrowed by Newt to observe the Norwegian Ridgeback Noble, and the shapeshifting lizard skin bag had limited space, Kyle even wanted to buy another two hundred Galleons to bring back.
"Not enough?!" Charlie stared, "Do you have more than 100 friends?"
"If you really want to count... just a little more." Kyle thought for a while and said, "But I'm not doing this to give away.
Many Hogwarts students have never had the opportunity to come here, and they must have never seen such a great specialty.It's a rare trip, I bought it for them. "
"Huh?" Charlie didn't understand what he meant.
But Kyle didn't explain too much, Weasley is really not very smart in this regard.
"Anyway..." He put away the pile of packages, raised his head and said, "I may write to you again later, and then I have to trouble you to buy some things for me and send them to Hogwarts."
"That's no problem." Charlie nodded and agreed without even thinking about it, "But it may not be that timely, as you know, we only have two days of vacation at most in a month."
"It doesn't matter."
Kyle said with a smile: "Besides, I will give you the money at the original price, and you can keep the discounted ones from the shopkeeper..."
"How is this possible!"
Kyle was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
Charlie seemed to feel that he was underestimated, and said unhappily: "No matter how much you want, I will help you get a good discount. I still have some face."
"No..." Kyle explained: "I mean, those are your rewards."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Charlie was even more displeased, "What kind of remuneration are you talking about for such a trivial matter? Who do you take me for!"
"That was not what I meant……"
The two fought all the way, but they didn't reach a consensus until they returned to the reserve.
No matter what Kyle said, Charlie said that it was okay to help with shopping, but he refused to ask for any reward anyway.
It's not that Charlie doesn't understand what Kyle means.
It's nothing more than taking the specialties here to Hogwarts, and selling them to other people with some extra money.
He understands the truth, but he just doesn't want to take Kyle's money.
Besides, Charlie didn't think Kyle could sell much... After all, he wasn't the first person to do so.
There is a shop like this in Diagon Alley, which specializes in special products from some well-known places. When he went home last time, he saw Old John's handmade dragon tooth necklace in it.
But the business there... how to put it, he has never seen more than two people inside...even at Christmas, or when there are the most people before school starts.
It wouldn't work to open a store in Diagon Alley, let alone Hogwarts, where those students only had a few dollars.
Charlie firmly believes that the ones he bought before are enough for Kyle to use for several years.
So as soon as he got back to the protected area, he patted Kyle on the shoulder and walked away without looking back.
In this regard, Kyle can only smile helplessly.
Forget it, let's talk about it then.
……
In the last few days of August, those who had come to help began to leave the reserve one after another.
Professor Locknell also left, and before he left, he invited Kyle to Beauxbatons as a guest... either to transfer schools, or to play.
Kyle also readily agreed.
"I'll send you a copy after sorting out the information on the new species." After Professor Locknell finished speaking, he left with the Portkey.
There is also Edward Lima, who also said before leaving that he would send Kyle a new version of "The Monster Book of Monsters".
……
Because Chris had to go through one more procedure, the final handover with the Romanian Ministry of Magic, Kyle and Newt stayed here for another day in order to wait for him.
The Portkey's destination was fixed at the Ministry of Magic.
When they got here, a haggard-looking wizard walked over quickly.
"Newcomers register here, and they have to check their belongings... Oh, Chris, it's you."
"Arnold?" Chris looked at the person and asked in confusion, "When did you get transferred to the immigration office?"
"It's not a transfer."
"I'm here to help," Arnold said.
"Help?" Chris looked around.
There were indeed a lot of people, and there was a long line in front of the registration desk.
"Are you here to help maintain order?"
"It can't be helped..." He sighed, and said: "You know. Because of Sirius Black, the investigation here has been very strict recently, and there has been not enough manpower."
"It's really hard work for you." Chris said, and was about to queue up.
"Oh... Chris, you don't need it."
Arnold held him back, "The portkey shows that you guys came back from the Romanian Ministry of Magic, so it's definitely impossible to have anything to do with that guy, right?"
"Of course." Chris nodded, "There were at least a dozen people present."
"That's why I said no need." Arnold scratched a few times on a notebook, and whispered at the same time: "And Mr. Minister seems to have something important to ask you, I don't think he has the patience to wait for a few hours. I was the one who was unlucky."
"The minister is looking for me?"
"Yeah, he came here half an hour ago." Arnold raised his head and looked at Kyle and Newt.
Chris said quickly: "This is Mr. Newt Scamander and my son Kyle. We came together."
"Oh, Mr. Scamander..." Arnold was a little surprised, but his hands didn't stop, and he continued to write something in his notebook.
"Okay, there are three people in total, the registration is complete!"
Soon, he closed the notebook and said, "Let's go, don't keep our Mr. Minister waiting."
A few minutes later, Kyle walked in the corridors of the Ministry of Magic with a dazed expression on his face.
He was thinking about how to change the box to Muggle mode just now, but he didn't expect it to be released so easily, and he didn't even need to go through the process?
"Arnold Peasegood, an amnesticist, we've worked together a few times before."
Chris explained: "Before we set off, the Romanian side should have contacted the Ministry of Magic in advance. Generally, there is no need to register again in this case."
Then the three of them turned a corner and came to the magnificent main hall of the Ministry of Magic.
Because of different itineraries, the three separated after arriving here.
Chris was going to take the elevator to find Fudge, while Kyle and Newt walked through the crowd to two long fireplace passages.
The Ministry of Magic, like Hogwarts, banned disapparation, so they decided to Floo to the Leaky Cauldron and back from there.
Mainly Kyle was going to Diagon Alley, Newt was just looking for a place to Apparate, anywhere.
Because the Ministry of Magic has a lot of visitors every day, even though there are more than a dozen fireplaces here, it is still not enough. People come out of it one after another. As soon as the green flame inside is extinguished, it will rise again.
After waiting for a few minutes, a fireplace was finally vacant temporarily. Kyle walked over quickly and threw a handful of Floo powder into it.
Kyle walked into the fireplace, and as the scene in front of him changed, he soon came from the lively Ministry of Magic to the equally lively Leaky Cauldron.
Thanks to book friend Hai Ziyuan for the reward.
