Chapter 79
After returning to Wu's Orphanage from Hogwarts, Ye Ting obviously felt a little uncomfortable.
Of course, at Hogwarts, he could hide in the Room of Requirement and do any research he wanted to do. When he was bored, he could fly freely in the sky on the"Sun Disk". Circle and enjoy the wind-like feeling.
Since he helped the centaur tribe, he has another pastime, which is visiting the Forbidden Forest.
With the horseman as his guide, the Forbidden Forest is like his back garden, allowing him to roam and collect at will.
But now, he had to stay in a small room. His only entertainment every day was reading books, and he couldn't even perform magic. Although he played a trick on the Aurors at the airport last time, that was just a special situation. Now he also can't do magic. I don't dare to use magic openly here at Wu's Orphanage, otherwise I might be kicked out of school. After all, he is currently not powerful enough to fight against the entire Ministry of Magic.
But then again, if he was strong enough to ignore the rules of the Ministry of Magic, why would he care about being expelled?
In short, Ye Ting, who felt aggrieved, finally couldn't bear it anymore. He found Mrs. Gary and got permission to live alone from her - of course, he had to use some magical means such as spiritual suggestion, but since he didn't use a magic wand , so trace silk cannot detect this.
Then, he could finally act alone.
However, his first priority was not to find a new place to live, but to seek investment.
The most famous event that occurred in the financial market in 1992 was the pound crisis. In this incident, financial speculators led by Soros seized the opportunity of the uncoordinated currency exchange rates among European countries and shorted the pound, thus causing a huge loss. Make a fortune.
This incident happened in September 1992, but now Soros has begun to make plans, so after Ye Ting left Wu's Orphanage, he immediately flew to the United States and invested all his wealth in Soros's hedge fund. ——It is inevitable to use magic means. Otherwise, how could a hedge fund worth hundreds of millions of dollars allow an account with only a few million dollars to join?
After that, Ye Ting began to prepare his new home. He planned to build the new home in a place where wizards gather. In these places, because there are many wizards living in them and they are relatively concentrated, it is impossible to use trace silk to detect whether the little wizard has used Magic, this gave Ye Ting the opportunity to bypass the Ministry of Magic's regulations and use magic outside of school.
Now he has two preferred places. The first is Hogsmeade in Scotland, which is a relatively prosperous wizarding town and is close to Hogwarts; the other choice is Ottery in Devon, England. - St. Catchpole Village is just a small village, not prosperous, but there are many acquaintances of Ye Ting living there, such as the Weasley family, the Lovegood family and the Diggory family.
Both locations are very good, which made Ye Ting struggle for a long time - the former is prosperous, convenient for shopping, and you can go back to Hogwarts at any time, just like a room in a school district; the latter is relatively close to acquaintances and boring. He can even drop by when visiting, and he is very interested in George and Fred from the Weasley family, Digory from the Godric family, and Luna from the Lovegood family.
He struggled with this for a day, and suddenly, he recalled what happened to Harry during this summer vacation: the Weasley twins and Ron rode in a flying car to take Harry from the Dursleys' house. Harry Potter took it. car!
Ye Ting immediately had inspiration.
Why not buy an RV and call it your own home?
The wizard will use a traceless expansion spell, which can expand a limited space without the change being visible from the outside.
This spell was widely used in wizards' storage supplies and houses.
Ye Ting is very good at this spell. He has a very strong spatial talent and has always been good at learning space magic.
Although the larger the space, the more difficult it is to use the Traceless Expansion Spell, but with his level, the space of a RV can be expanded into a luxury villa.
In this way, he can choose where to live at will. He will live in the village of Ottery-St. Catchpole during the holidays, and move to Hogsmeade after school starts. He can even drive this car wherever he wants to travel in the future. car.
He could even go one step further and buy a bus himself and then convert it into a motorhome - anyway, one of the three basic types of motorhomes is a bus motorhome.
By the way, the other two types are truck-type RVs and trailer-type RVs.
As he said, he immediately tried every means to disguise his identity and bought a double-decker bus.
This is a Volvo Olympian double-decker bus from the Swedish Volvo Company. It is the latest double-decker bus produced by Volvo's Scottish factory in 1992. However, it was intercepted by Ye Ting as soon as it left the factory.
This car is 12 meters long, 2.5 meters wide, and 4.4 meters high. The engine is... The engine is not important, it can be modified with magic anyway.
Next, he has to find a place to modify the bus. Since magic is required, he must find a wizarding colony to modify it to avoid being discovered by the Ministry of Magic.
In Ye Ting's opinion, the best place is St. Catchpole Village, because not only are there many wizard families living there, but they can also find a ready helper, that is, the twins and Ron's father, Arthur. Weasley.
Arthur Weasley worked in the Ministry of Magic's Office for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Articles, but he loved anything Muggle-related and even wrote the Muggle Protection Act. And he is also extremely interested in Muggle technology. He would buy Muggle objects, take them apart in the shed and study them, trying to figure out how they worked, and he would also cast magic on them. The Ford that the twins and Ron drove to pick up Harry was his masterpiece.
He is interested in Muggle items, has experience in modifying Muggle vehicles, is friendly and easy-going, and can be considered an acquaintance. Is there a more perfect helper than him?
Thinking of this, he immediately wrote a letter to the twins, asking them to convey their request to Mr. Arthur Weasley. Compared to Ron, Ye Ting had a better relationship with the twins. When they were at Hogwarts, the two of them often talked. They asked Ye Ting about alchemy, and Ye Ting also gave them a lot of suggestions on their homemade prank props.
Soon, Ye Ting received a reply. The person who wrote the reply was not the twins, but Mr. Weasley.
This letter was quite enthusiastic. In the letter, Mr. Weasley expressed that he had admired Ye Ting for a long time and praised Ye Ting's behavior at Hogwarts. Faced with Ye Ting's idea of converting a bus into a house, , Mr. Weasley expressed great interest and took the initiative to join the transformation work.
At the end of the letter, he warmly invited Ye Ting to visit the Burrow - this was the name of the Weasley family - and also included the address of St. Catchpole Village.
