Chapter 11 How to Make a Fortune in the Magical World
It was no joke that Chen Yi and Hermione played with clay together since childhood. Of course, they played with plasticine.
As a time traveler who has read the "Harry Potter" novels and movies, he has a good impression of Hermione. Not to mention, Hermione's appearance alone will make her a very suitable wife in the future.
Of course, you have to develop a loli slowly, and Chen Yi doesn't necessarily want to marry Hermione. After all, he still understands the principle of being a licker and not being a housewife.
Hermione in elementary school was quite slovenly, with messy hair and big teeth. She was an ugly duckling. In addition, she always looked like a young adult and had few friends at all. Therefore, for Chen Yi, the only one,
Friends are also very concerned, and even the Grangers often let Chen Yi's family have dinner.
Of course, Chen Yi thought that he was investing in a little lolita and waiting to marry Bai Fumei in the future, but Hermione thought that the two of them were in a team for warmth.
After all, with Chen Yi's adult mindset, it would be difficult to play with a group of children.
However, everything changed when Chen Yi entered junior high school.
Hermione did not tell Chen Yi that she became a wizard because the wizarding world prohibited wizards from revealing the existence of the wizarding world to Muggles.
Chen Yi also pretended not to know where Hermione went to school, and later he only had the opportunity to see her during holidays. The two childhood sweethearts fell apart like this.
Although Chen Yi was very unwilling, even though he was a time traveler, his Muggle status still prevented him from entering Hermione's world.
Wanting to use scientific means to crack magic is Chen Yi's mantra, but he knows that this idea is actually a daydream, especially in the world at the end of the 20th century.
What's more, even if he wants to use scientific methods to crack magic, he has to wait until he reaches adulthood. He is a fifteen-year-old kid now and has no money to engage in such research.
But things are different now, his golden finger has arrived!
"Hello!"
The two little boys beside Hermione saw that Hermione seemed to know the customers in the store, and they greeted Chen Yi very politely.
"Hello."
Chen Yi looked at the two people up and down. One was a thin little boy with a lightning scar on his head. He should be the legendary Harry Potter. The other was a little stronger and had red hair. He should be.
Ron Weasley.
"You take your pick, I have something to say to my brother."
Seeing that Chen Yi was taking it for granted, Hermione was a little annoyed and pulled Chen Yi away from Ollivander's Wand Shop and came to a black tea shop.
Chen Yi raised his eyebrows. Is this little girl familiar with Diagon Alley?
Yes, Hogwarts students come to Diagon Alley every year to buy teaching books. Are you not familiar with it?
Thinking back to when Ron said he wanted to buy a new wand just now, does that mean the plot has already reached Sirius?
"Hey, I'm asking you something!"
Seeing Chen Yi's dazed look, the little girl's cheeks puffed up and she shouted angrily.
Now Hermione still has a pair of big teeth, but her hair is no longer messy, it must have been straightened out by magic.
It seems that magic is still useful.
Chen Yi complained secretly and said casually: "What are you asking?"
"Ask why you didn't tell me you were a wizard!"
The little girl asked, Hermione had always felt guilty towards Chen Yi because of concealing her identity, and because she was still young, she didn't know how to hide it, so she didn't dare to say hello to Chen Yi when she saw him in the past few years.
Now it's okay, it was not her, but Chen Yi who was at fault. Hermione's confidence suddenly increased.
"Who told you I was a wizard?"
Chen Yi stirred the black tea with a spoon, and after confirming that no specialties from the magical world were added, he carefully took a sip. It tasted pretty good.
"But you..."
Hermione pointed around, you ran to Diagon Alley, you told me you are not a wizard.
"I'm a genius, aren't I?"
Although Chen Yi didn't have a golden finger after time travel, if he didn't even understand elementary school knowledge, he could find a noodle and hang himself to death. Therefore, although he has always denied that he is a genius, people around him think that Chen Yi is a genius. He
Min is no exception.
Hermione didn't believe what Chen Yi said. There was a Muggle expulsion spell in the wizarding world. If Chen Yi was not a wizard, he would not be able to enter Diagon Alley.
"I assume you're thinking of the Muggle-Repelling Charm, right?"
Seeing that Hermione still didn't believe it, Chen Yi said casually: "According to my speculation, the Muggle Expelling Curse can only make people subconsciously ignore a certain scene, but it cannot make people ignore a certain person."
Hermione frowned, then felt a little confused and looked at Chen Yi in disbelief.
"Yes, I followed a wizard into Diagon Alley and discovered this magical world."
Chen Yi was talking serious nonsense.
However, his statement is not all nonsense. In fact, it is not uncommon for Muggles to enter Diagon Alley. For example, Hermione's parents took Hermione to Diagon Alley to buy books. If the Muggle expulsion spell was effective, they would not
Can't get in.
"They...didn't notice?"
Hermione's mouth formed an O shape and her eyes widened.
"Common sense is a prejudice that is difficult to change. Just like you think I am a wizard, everyone also thinks I am a wizard."
Chen Yi turned the wand in his hand like he was turning a pen when he was a child, which made Hermione's eyelids jump.
This is the most precious thing for wizards. The Ron family's wand has almost become a family heirloom. If it hadn't been accidentally broken, I would have been reluctant to replace it with a new one.
"No, then where did you get the wand in your hand?"
Hermione realized this immediately. It was your ability to get into Diagon Alley, but where did your money come from?
"As long as you are willing to use your brain, you can always make money."
Chen Yi pointed at his brain, looking like a lonely master, which made Hermione's teeth itch.
"For wizards, if they want to obtain potion materials, they need to buy them in stores, and shopkeepers need to catch them in the wild. But for Muggles, they can buy them with gold galleons."
This is not Chen Yiwu's intention. He has already made plans on how to make a fortune in the magic world. The ingredients for potions do not necessarily mean magical animals, such as daisy roots, fig peels, caterpillars, and a small amount of water required for rejuvenation water.
Dripping leech juice, mouse spleen...
Another example is the frog brains, bezoars, aconitum, and even ginger roots required for other potions. These may be cultivated in the wizarding world, but in Britain, which has entered the industrial age, purchasing in large quantities is not a problem at all.
Of course, he doesn't need these tips for reselling materials now, because he's cheating.
Even though Hermione was very smart, her head was still spinning. It was obvious that the little girl had perfectly inherited the characteristics of ordinary nuts and was not interested in numbers.
"Stop, I probably... probably know where your money comes from."
The little girl's eyes were wandering, and she obviously didn't understand it clearly at all, but she still asked doubtfully: "But you are still a Muggle, what are you going to do?"
Muggles in the wizarding world have a hard time. For example, the caretaker of Hogwarts, Argus Filch, is a squib. The students are not friendly to him, otherwise they will not be so straightforward in the future.
Ministry of Magic.
"I want to study magic, study it thoroughly."
Chen Yi smiled confidently, he was just so confident, because I am a genius...even though it is me from another world.
