Chapter 1618: ?Hermione's chance
The death knell took the children and parents to exchange money and shop. During this period, Su Ming kept Hermione in the Ollivander staff shop next door.
As for why? Because the Ollivander family has thirteen ancestors, all of them are Ravenclaw!
This is the layout carried out before Su Ming bought the current store, in order to show Hermione the gap between the two college graduates.
Gryffindor graduated, so you can only work as a slave in the Wilson Automatic Wand Shop. Ravenclaw graduated and could be a shopkeeper next door. Ollivander also monopolized almost all the wand business in the British magical world, even Voldemort's wand was made by him.
In fact, it has nothing to do with which college, because the wand point is the family's ancestral property, but how does a child Hermione know so much? As long as the eyes can see the surface gap.
In addition, the Primm Pineer Magic Beauty Shop at the opposite door is a magic beauty salon that girls love. The owner is also a graduate of Ravenclaw. Acne potion', thus becoming the top rich man in one fell swoop.
The housing price in Diagon Alley is not a joke. Even if Su Ming is supported by wealth from a few planets, buying such a shop gives him the urge to kill the fairy agent with a neutron bomb. You can imagine what it was like. Level.
can open a flagship store here, which is equivalent to other top companies on the planet.
As a neighbor, Ollivander doesn’t think Su Ming’s "Muggle Wand" can have any impact on his business. The weird old man is actually very nervous most of the time, speaking little, and shrinking behind the shop. Fiddling with sticks and feathers in the workshop.
helps to watch the child for a while, just as a neighbor’s daily relationship.
But when Su Ming left with the tour group, he inadvertently listened to Hermione's awkward chat while working, and found that the girl's wish was Ravenclaw, and he opened the conversation box.
As a senior and a person who came over, he knew all the details that Su Ming didn't know. After making a few brainstorms and verifying Hermione's IQ, he enthusiastically blew out all the benefits of Ravenclaw.
also talked about some in-depth things, such as using Ravenclaw's traditional craftsmanship-negotiating terms, so as to achieve a way to enjoy the benefits of several other colleges at the same time.
As a Ravenclaw student, most of the time, he is in a state of seclusion, doing his own research and invention, and he doesn't care much about the disputes of several other colleges.
Can I win the Academy Cup? It doesn't matter at all, because the smart Ravenclaw has already discovered that there is no substantial benefit in getting the Academy Cup.
Except that the color of the decoration banner of the auditorium next year will be the color of the winner's college, there will be no good, so what else is necessary to fight for? How much is the compliment of the principal worth?
It's better to use credits as a bargaining chip to trade with students from other colleges and manipulate the results of the College Cup to gain benefits.
How else do you think Slytherin won the Academy Cup for six consecutive years before Harry Potter enrolled? Being strong is one thing, but trading with Eagle Academy is another.
The Wand Guy remembered the past tragic years, and could not help telling Hermione some interesting past. For example, as long as there was enough intelligence, the fools of the other three colleges could use it.
Hufflepuff’s students can freely enter and exit the large kitchen all day, use the ingredients inside, and order the house elves to cooperate with them in cooking.
But Ravenclaw students only need to pay a bottle of ecstasy in exchange for a semester of supper and snacks to have a little badger delivered to the tower. I would like to thank you for your help.
Yes, the predecessor who invented the love potion was also Ravenclaw. Compared with Snape, the craftsmanship that Ravenclaw secretly circulated was more sophisticated, not to mention that it was one of the contraband in the school, Snape Never configure such things for students.
Can I continue my research experiment without Jin Jialong? It's also simple. Those pure-blooded nobles in Slytherin all have money. Kitty hawks often only need to help write a paper or answer some questions, and they can get a lot of money.
As for Gryffindor, those goods are useless, just give them some benefits to make them work stupid, such as helping to steal some alchemy materials in the Forbidden Forest, or going to Hogsmeade Village to help run errands and buy some sweets and drinks. .
I bought a bag of candy and divided them. Those guys were all happy from ear to ear.
Of course, if the smugglers were unfortunately caught by the professor, they would not be able to prove that Kitty Hawk instructed them to buy sugar, because there would be no evidence.
Speaking of this, Ollivander showed a mysterious smile, tapped his temple with his finger, and said to Hermione who was surprised to open his mouth: "Although your Professor Wilson is an American, he has to say that he is very knowledgeable. The saying goes really well, knowledge is power."
"But why does it sound like a lie?" Little Hermione asked simply.
Ollivander shook his head: "No, everything is a fair deal. Wisdom gives us room for profit. Little girl, think about it, we have knowledge, wealth, and products that others desire. People from this college beg us to buy, not that we have to do their business. This is a seller’s market, boy, you will understand later."
Hermione nodded her head seemingly understanding, "Then why can't we help our classmates for free?"
A flash of light flashed under Ollivander’s glasses, and he put down the wand he was assembling:
"You are such a good boy. Of course, helping your classmates is worth promoting. But everyone's time is limited. If you devote all your energy to helping others, do you still have time to explore the true mysteries of magic? Only by becoming the strongest wizard can we help more people after graduation. We don't expect any superior enjoyment. We exchange all kinds of convenience, just to allow us more time to study our subjects."
"So it's like this..." Hermione seemed to understand something, something called a sense of mission fell on her shoulders, as if she was holding back from buying a book for two days. Just endure not helping others for seven years.
As long as there are a lot of research results, more people can be helped after graduation. This is for greater good.
As a veteran Ravenclaw, Ollivander lied to Hermione just like playing, but he also had some emotion in his heart. Maybe when the child grows up, she won't have any overly enthusiastic thoughts.
Ravenclaw’s students are often the first to understand what interests represent in the magical world, just as they are the first to know any news in the academy~www.NovelMTL.com~The eyes of the eagle are naturally the most among the four animals. Spiritual.
"Well, if you can enter Ravenclaw smoothly, I will give you the same gift when you come to my shop at Christmas." He blinked at the child, then lowered his head and started playing with the semi-finished wand in front of him.
"What gift?" Hermione blinked, and the little girl was distracted when she heard the gift.
Ollivander did not look up, but replied in a mysterious voice: "A secret that only your principal Dumbledore knows can make you very strong."
"Then you are not allowed to play tricks, Ravenclaw, I will be able to go in." Hermione lifted her chin.
The magic wand master found it very interesting. He looked at the crowds coming and going outside the door. From time to time, people entered the store to buy a magic wand for the child.
Although they were all thrown to the apprentices to receive, but the shop was so messy, it is impossible to do anything business today.
"You come in and come to the back of the workshop. I now teach you the first magic as a gift for seniors. This magic is called Occlumency, and knowledge is also wealth. You must protect it."
Yes, Ollivander is also an unknown master of Occlumency, at least on the same level as Snape.
In the future in the original book, Voldemort caught him trying to inquire about the whereabouts of the old wand, but he could not read any news from his mind with the dementia. He could only torture him with the drill curse, trying to make him let go, but finally Fell through.
Hermione doesn't know what Occlumency is, nor why the old mage treats her so nicely, but there is magic before school, that would be great.
