Fang Linyan stared at Yin Lisa and whitened for a long time:
"No, no, no, you are too young, and what I lack now is a veteran with rich experience. If your grandfather is still here, then he will definitely be fine, but you are far behind!"
Yin Lisabai said unconvinced:
"You have to tell me something!"
Fang Linyan said seriously:
"I need to buy some materials, very rare materials that are not available in the Muggle world. Most of them should be related to magical animals."
"And the crux of the problem is that I don't know enough about these materials, and there are too many profiteers in this world! In desperation, I was even willing to pay extra gold galleons to make their profits explode, but these guys are still working tirelessly You want to trick me!"
Yin Lisabai's eyes suddenly lit up:
"If you are really here for this matter, then you have found the right person!"
Fang Linyan said doubtfully:
"You don't think you're qualified for this job?"
Yin Lisabai said proudly:
"Of course, I was taught by my grandfather from an early age! When I was eleven years old, I published my first paper in the Magic Herald! Then I was taken by Robbie to live in Magical Creatures during the winter and summer vacations. I am running around in various secret places, and so far, as many as eleven new species have been discovered in my hands."
Fang Linyan said dubiously:
"Secret realm?"
Yin Lisabai said:
"Don't you know? All magical creatures, including some famous magical buildings, are built in secret realms attached to the main plane!"
"The magic power in the secret realm is more abundant, and it is more suitable for practicing magic and the survival of magical creatures. Hogwarts is also built in the secret realm. Platform nine and three-quarters is the entrance to this great secret realm!"
Fang Linyan’s wonder:
"Is there such a thing?"
Yin Lisabai said:
"Think about it, Muggle technology is also very advanced now, including airplanes, satellites, and nuclear weapons!"
"If there was no secret realm, all magical creatures would have been killed long ago, and even magical buildings would have a hard time staying mysterious."
Fang Linyan thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.
Just as Yin Lisabai was about to continue speaking, a man came in at the door and wanted to buy cakes. She sent him away quickly, then pulled down the door and hung up the sign saying "Buying foreign goods".
Then she asked Fang Linyan to wait while she went upstairs and brought down a box the size of a washbasin.
After opening the box, more than a dozen newspapers appeared inside, all of which contained papers published by Lisa White, and there were even moving figures applauding them next to them.
At the bottom of the box are several gold medals awarded by the Animal Welfare Society, which were awarded to her for discovering new species.
Fang Linyan turned over it roughly, and suddenly turned to Yin Lisa and said:
"You seem to be short of money?"
This is actually not difficult to figure out. Yin Lisabai's slightly worn-out clothes, the plastic jewelry in her hair, and the way she is careful not to count the wrong amount when making change all speak of this point.
Yin Lisabai nodded sheepishly and said:
"Yes, so if I help you get what you want to buy, can you treat me to an ice cream hotpot? I know that store will have a 20% discount after nine o'clock in the evening."
Fang Linyan noticed that Lisa Bai Yin's eyes were shining when she talked about ice cream hot pot. It seemed that this little girl was a foodie! He did not answer the question directly, and then said to Lisa Bai Yin:
"I think based on your family conditions and personal abilities, you shouldn't be short of money."
Yin Lisabai sighed melancholy and said:
"After Robbie passed away, my parents cut off my financial resources and told my friends not to provide support for me."
"They wanted to force me to be a lawyer, but my dream was to help Robbie complete his book A Bite of Magical Creatures, so I fell out with them, and now I can only rely on the bakery in my classmate's house.
Work to support yourself.”
Fang Linyan nodded slightly, and then took out the list of things he wanted to buy:
"How many items on this list can you help me get?"
Yin Lisabai immediately grabbed the order, read it carefully, and said after a while:
"Three pieces! At least three pieces!"
Fang Linyan said:
"How much will it cost approximately?"
Yin Lisabai tilted her head and thought for a while:
"It will cost at least 80 gold galleons!"
Fang Linyan simply raised his hand and said:
"My budget is five hundred gold galleons. If you help me get three pieces of materials, the remaining gold galleons will be yours!"
"How much money you can finally supplement Robbie's publishing funds depends on your bargaining power."
Yin Lisabai was immediately stunned:
"W-what did you say? Five hundred gold galleons?"
Fang Linyan said:
"Yes, I believe Robbie must have told you about my ancestor, the handsome Wrench. He was a very healthy person! And his looks were even better than his health."
"And I am also a very healthy person, so when can we leave? I hope this matter can be settled as soon as possible. In that case, maybe I can treat you to an ice cream hotpot!"
Yin Lisabai said at a loss:
"No need, I really don't need so many!"
Fang Linyan waved his hand and said:
"Then let's do this. After you get the money, you can fulfill Mr. Robbie's last wish and let the book Magical Creatures on the Bite of the Tongue be officially published. Then you can return the remaining money to me."
Yin Lisa was still a little embarrassed when she said it, but Fang Linyan said simply:
"Back then, when my ancestors and Mr. Robbie fought side by side through life and death, they were not the mother-in-laws like you. Now that you are gone, can you save me some time?"
***
one hour later,
Yin Lisabai took Fang Linyan to a ship on the Thames River.
This ship is quite old. Its huge mottled hull and large chimney with black smoke are the first impression it gives.
When a girl like Yin Lisabai, who looked thin and timid, stood in front of the ship's escalator, she even gave people the feeling that a weak woman was about to step into a pit of fire.
However, it was obvious that this was not the first time for Yin Lisabai to come to this place. She followed the narrow passage to the bottom of the cabin like a deer with brisk steps.
There was a large group of rude and dirty sailors playing cards here. Their yellow teeth, the stench emanating from their bodies, as well as their chest hair and tattoos would make any little girl intimidated. However, Lisa Yin took the initiative to greet them:
"Hey, Rotten Tooth, how's your luck today?"
"Lanfan, be careful that your gold tooth is going to fall out."
"Old sea dog, it's time to throw away your hip flask. You have to think about your life after landing..."
"..."
Surprisingly, these sailors also responded to Yin Lisabai one after another. Some shook their fingers at her, while others raised the metal wine bottles they carried with them.
Finally, a guy with a fierce look standing in front of Yin Lisabai stood in front of Yin Lisabai. He was wearing a blindfold, and his left hand was directly a sharp iron hook. At this time, Fang Linyan had already tensed his muscles and was ready to stand up.
Because he felt that a robbery was about to happen, and the victim was the buyer he had found with great difficulty.
However, this one-eyed dragon said to Yin Lisabai in a completely different gentle tone:
"Hey, little bell, you have to stop, because the boss is discussing business inside."
Yin Lisabai raised her eyebrows and said:
"Who told you that I can't go in while the seals are discussing business?"
The one-eyed dragon shrugged and said:
"Of course you can go in, but only if you are alone, but today you brought a stranger!"
Yin Lisabai said:
"He is no stranger."
The one-eyed dragon said sarcastically:
"Oh, what is he?"
Yin Lisabai said:
"He's a big buyer who can make your boss happy."
The one-eyed dragon shook his head and said:
"Sorry, little bell, I didn't receive a notice from the boss saying that strangers can be allowed in, so he can't go in."
At this time, Fang Linyan became a little impatient. He decisively took out the small money bag, then reached in and grabbed a handful of gold galleons.
Seeing these jingling and jumping golden elves, everyone present was dumbfounded. Of course they knew these hard currencies, especially after Fang Linyan kept grabbing handfuls of golden galleons, their breaths
It started to become turbid, and it was obvious that some bold ideas had begun to appear in my mind.
However, then they heard a strange "crunching" sound, and then their eyes couldn't help but focus on it.
It turned out that Fang Linyan had already put away his money bag at this time, and he grabbed the door handle next to him. The sound came from the door handle that had begun to twist and deform!
This is no other place, but the lower cabin of the freighter! Because of the sealing issue, the door handles are very strong. They are made of steel and are the kind of rotating watertight doors!
Needless to say at this time, the eyes of all the sailors were about to fall off. Xiang Fang Linyan's eyes were already similar to those of a ferocious beast.
Fortunately, this is a magical world, and even Muggles have long begun to adapt to beings with supernatural abilities. Regarding Fang Linyan's terrifying performance, these guys reacted with understanding and at the same time were in awe.
And this awe is twofold, on the one hand it is based on money, on the other hand it is based on power!
Then Fang Linyan stared directly at the one-eyed dragon and walked in. The one-eyed dragon secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and didn't even dare to fart.
After walking into the cabin inside, Fang Linyan was stunned for a moment, because he even had the illusion that he had arrived at the vegetable market:
Because the huge space in front of us, the very dense stalls, even the smell wafting in the air, and the hum coming from a large number of people talking, are all similar to a wet market.
The difference is that the wet market sells vegetables, while what is sold here is all kinds of smuggled goods and contraband!!
At the top of the center of the market, there is a crooked hangtag with the three words Camden on it. However, as can be seen from this tattered hangtag, about one-third of it has disappeared.
.
It is said that when it was complete, the tag read Camden Import and Export Co., Ltd., but no one cares about it now, so this ghost place is called "Camden Supermarket", or "Camden Supermarket".
Dayton Mall”.
It is a huge mobile illegal market, which is the secondary reason why it has been able to avoid raids by the Ministry of Magic many times.
As for the main reason, of course it is because there is a protective umbrella within the Ministry of Magic, which is riddled with holes, and the umbrella has made amazing profits from this.
At this time, Fang Linyan completely trusted Yin Lisabai, because at least it proved that Yin Lisabai's connections and ideas at this time were correct.
The profiteer bosses in Knockturn Alley and Diagon Alley are in the retail market, and the place where they purchase goods should be in such a wholesale black market! If there is nothing that Fang Linyan is looking for here, then Fang Linyan will really admit it.
After walking a few steps inside, Yin Lisabai stuck out her tongue and said:
"Wow, you looked so fierce just now. It seems like you are quite familiar with this kind of underground market."
Fang Linyan chuckled and said:
"Our family is still very powerful in the Himalayas. Gray industries such as smuggling have to be funded by us, otherwise they will not be able to operate at all."
"These people seem to be ruthless, but they are actually the nature of businessmen. They only want money. When they see money, they will be easy to talk to. What I worry about most is not spending money, but that I can't buy good goods even if I spend money. I have to rely on your help."
I've checked it."
"By the way, why do people here call you Little Bell?"
Yin Lisabai raised her eyebrows and said:
"Because Robbie has called me Little Bell since he was little."
"When these people are smuggling, they will inevitably encounter some sick or injured precious creatures, and they will come to Robbie for help in treating or taming them. Robbie will also take me with him, so after going back and forth,
Of course I am very familiar with this place."
"By the way, let me buy what I want by the way? In this case, it will be easier to purchase and keep the price down."
Fang Linyan waved his hand very simply and said:
"You can spend the five hundred gold galleons budget as you like, I just need to get the three materials on the list."
Soon, Yin Lisabai took Fang Linyan to a deserted shop. The shop had a large facade, but there were very few goods displayed outside.
Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan was even more confident. This market was so busy, and the rent for the shop must be very expensive. However, this shop had a large facade, sold only a few goods, and was deserted, but it could still survive here.
Then it can only mean one thing: the boss here is either very rich, or the outside business is just a cover, and the real profitable business is hidden inside.
After Yin Lisabai came to the door of the shop, a lazy man sitting there glanced at her and said:
"Little Lingdang, I heard that you have been imprisoned by your family. Last time, a coelacanth was about to die. I couldn't find anyone to ask you for help. Why are you free to come here today?"
Yin Lisabai snorted coldly and said:
"Don't you think those people in Wales are good? Why are you here to see me?"
The big man smiled and said:
"Wouldn't this be a better friendship with you?"
Yin Lisabai said:
"hehe......."
After listening to them chat for a while, another question in Fang Linyan's mind was answered, that is, why did Lisa Bai Yin claim to be very good at magical creatures, but she was reduced to working in a bakery?
It turns out that she is still a newbie after all, and since her grandfather Robbie passed away, the blank market left behind has been rushed in and divided up.
By the time Yin Lisabai realized that her family did not support her and wanted to control herself by cutting off her financial resources, half a year had passed.
Fortunately, Robbie's name was big enough, and the items passed to Yin Lisabai were also of high value. Therefore, after Yin Lisabai returned to the market, she received related orders one after another and began to gradually "recover the lost ground."
But her colleagues were enemies, and if she wanted to come back now, she would definitely offend some people's interests, so a guy named Wales took the lead and set up a trap for Yin Lisabai.
The little girl didn't know that people's hearts were sinister, so she fell right into it, and the six flute birds who took over the treatment died cleanly!
