HP’S PARALLEL WORLDS - Chapter 29
Slug and Jiggs Pharmacy, a store that sells raw materials for making magic potions, was the first store Violet visited today.
According to the magic potions they need to mix to take care of crops, they can accurately draw up a list of raw materials to buy, Violet will not be foolish to buy a standard potion raw materials sold specifically for school students here.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
“Tsk, chicken snake feathers are so expensive, if I could have one or two of them in my hand, I could sell them here at a high price.”
Not being able to find scales, feathers or anything else worth recycling in the cages that once contained magical creatures, Violet had only just let out this whine when Vincent followed up with a question, “What’s a chicken snake?”
“It’s a terrifying creature with the body of a chicken, but with the tail of a snake, which is not only able to breathe fire, but its poisonous gas is also able to completely petrify people. Although the chicken snake’s feathers contain extreme poison and are difficult to get hold of, they are a good treasure and can be put to great use.”
Vincent was about to ask what kind of potion such an expensive feather could be used to make, but before he opened his mouth he was handed a large paper bag by the shopkeeper, and faced with Violet, who was focused on checking whether the paper bag was complete and whether its quality was up to par, he very kindly chose not to bother her any further.
After paying, she stuffed the huge paper tape into her bag and went with Vincent and Hetty to the second-hand recycling and sale store, knowing full well that most of the junk they had brought back yesterday could be sold directly in this little store.
The bedding and clothing that had been cleaned up by Hetty’s magic, needless to say, brass scales, brass telescopes, crucibles, and all the glass and crystal appliances that Violet had boxed up, could all be sold here.
In order to these are mostly used to fill the magic potion of the small bottle, and the shopkeeper negotiated the price of recycling, and then opened the box full of second-hand toys, Violet can also put those used kitchenware, tableware and furniture, all left here.
As all the things that can be cleaned up have been cleaned up, and all the things that can be repaired have been repaired, so Violet took out the boxes and boxes of scrap, in fact, far from the shabby, shabby that they saw yesterday in the house of need and demand.
The second-hand stores do not accept the broken cages to run a trip to the pet store willing to accept these things, and then the rusty armor and weapons, sold to the recycling of scrap metal vendors, Violet faced with the sale of plaster busts and marble statues is not a good solution, just feel that if it is not possible, then just find a place to throw them away.
“Okay, we’ll need to make a trip to the Ancient Spirit Pavilion next.” After solving the magic creature specimens, in addition to the only remaining box, the “General Catalogue Box” inside the other boxes are emptied, Violet so took the internal box containing jewelry and precious metals, and then went to the most majestic building in the whole busy street.
Vincent was confronted with the Wizard’s Bank, which looked like it had cost a lot of money to build, and didn’t know how much money had been spent on construction, but he felt that such a magnificent building was not much different from a house made of gold.
Although the main purpose of today’s visit to Diagon Alley is to sell second-hand goods in this place, Violet did not forbid the Vincent around him to look around and look to the right and left in this street that he visited for the first time.
“Violet, look.” The stores lining the street were so diverse and full of merchandise that even if he slowed down, he was only able to take a quick glance as he kept switching his eyes from side to side.
“What?” Having been a non-sports fan in her previous life who didn’t watch all sports except Go, Violet didn’t think she’d see anything of value in the window of a Quidditch boutique based on her preconceived notions.
This time, however, she was wrong, simply because the main content of the poster in the store window was not a recommendation for a new flying broom, but rather a reference to a small game.
The flying brooms for adults were not suitable for children under eleven years old, so families with that condition, like Edward’s, bought their children flying brooms of child-oriented models and styles.
Riding such incomplete flying brooms, it is impossible to beat Quidditch, therefore, in the case that the flight height of these brooms cannot keep up with the golden thief, and the flight speed of these brooms is not good enough to dodge the wandering ball, the sales of such brooms for children are not very good.
Only through mass production would it be possible to further reduce the price of these flying brooms for children, thus attracting other families who were not wealthy enough to buy such goods, and so the Quidditch paraphernalia manufacturer held a tournament specifically for children in order to be able to advertise their products better.
“All participants, either renting or buying, had to use the same model of flying broom. And the format of the tournament is not a quiz bowl with fourteen people playing together, but a relay race?”
With this way of holding a tournament to stimulate the attention of potential buyers and the desire to buy, and then fully promote their own products with limited competition supplies, such a tournament held by the manufacturer of Quidditch supplies, but prepared a very generous prize.
“I wasn’t interested in this kind of thing at all, but since we can get a sum of money for nothing if we win, there’s no reason not to sign up for it anyway, is there?”
How the manufacturer wants to advertise, it does not matter at all in Violet’s opinion, as long as she can get a benefit in this, then, even if she is asked to help the other party to advertise to a certain extent, Violet is not unwilling to do anything.
“Then I’ll get a detailed description of the match.” Because the posters in the store did not have all the information marked on them, so follow the signs in front of the store and go get a free leaflet that was placed inside the basket, Vincent of course will figure out the detailed rules of the tournament, the process of the tournament and how and when to register after going home.
While calculating how many books they would be able to buy with the money if they did end up with the prize money, Vincent followed Violet towards the Gurling Pavilion and put the flying broom practice, which he was not very interested in, on his agenda.
“Just riding a flying broom and watering the vegetable patch is good enough for me on a regular basis, but it’s not enough to make sure we can win the competition. So really, just learning how to use the flying broom won’t work, I have to go back for special training.”
Although she could see that the main purpose of the relay race was to advertise, she had to admit that using the same type and model of flying broom would ensure the fairness of the race to the greatest extent. Strength is actually better than the other side, lose the game.
“There is no need to buy children’s flying brooms, we can use adult-oriented flying brooms to hone our flying skills when we train before the competition. When it’s almost time to rent the broom for the competition, and then spend time with this kid’s flying broom, I think it’s enough to do this kind of preliminary preparation.”
Although wanting to get the prize money of the competition, but definitely not to buy things that they simply can not use a few times, Violet so in the roughly done after planning, in front of the counter of the Ancient Spirit Pavilion, opened the small box in hand.
The purity of the precious metals actually reached how much, those inlaid with gemstones jewelry, the top of the gem materials used and exactly what grade, these questions can be completely in the ancient Ling Court inside a very good answer.
The actual fact is that this is an absolutely reliable and reputable bank, so it is possible to exchange the precious metals directly for coins after the appraisal is finished, and Violet even sold all of the jewelry she brought to the goblins in the Ancient Spirit Pavilion.
