Chapter 4 The Life of the Rich
"Hagir, how did you come from?"
William was chatting with Hager along the way because this big man looked a little nervous.
Not only did he express concerns about the safety of the Muggle car, he also had some motion sickness.
“I came here using Flox, and it was also from the fireplace in Principal Dumbledore’s office!”
Hager's words were filled with pride, and it seemed like how amazing it was to use Dumbledore's things.
“What is Flourish?”
After learning from Hagrid that Dumbledore was just an old man, Roy was no longer interested in the principal and began to be curious about the wizard's means of transportation.
"Oh, I forgot that you Muggles don't have Floor powder." Hagrid apologized.
"Felu powder is a kind of shining powder. You only need to grab a handful, clearly say the name of the destination, and then sprinkle it and you can reach it directly, which is very convenient."
William nodded thoughtfully while rubbing the tail of Bobo Tea.
This is a substance similar to teleportation, which is indeed very convenient, but...Hag, what's your look?
William was sure that he saw a kind of pity called "all Muggles live in dire straits" in Hagrid's big eyes!
No magic,
No Floor powder,
Even Hogwarts can't go to
Is it still pitiful?
It's so pitiful!
"Are there any other means of transportation besides Floor fans?" William asked.
"Too many, door keys, phantom movement, knight bus..."
Hagrid seemed to remember bad memories, stared at William and said seriously: "Remember, don't take the Knights bus. I vomited all the way last time and almost died inside.
Merlin's beard, the Ministry of Magic should ban this kind of transportation..."
Hagrid suddenly took out a stained, dirty handkerchief to cover his mouth. He waved his left hand and signaled William to find other topics to divert his attention.
"Hagge, you said Professor Robert is dead, do we have a new professor?" William handed over a few olives and opened the car window.
Olives can slightly relieve the nausea, which will make Hagrid feel better.
After taking the olive, Hagrid replied: "This position is hard to find. Over the years, no one has ever been willing to come to Hogwarts to serve as a professor of black magic defense."
"Poor Professor Robert..." Hagrid turned over the stained handkerchief and blew his nose, the sound as if it was blowing a morning trumpet.
"I just know that Professor Robert likes to drink, but he didn't expect that he would drink too when he went to the Forbidden Forest.
I woke up early in the morning and opened the door, took a small basket of beans, and prepared to visit the cute Aragok in the Forbidden Forest.
Then, I heard from Hufflepuff students that Professor Robert was missing. Everyone searched for the forbidden forest and saw a piece of his wizard robe hanging on the thorn wood.
Professor Flevy said, no, I am afraid I will be attacked by magical creatures.
When he went in again, Professor Robert was indeed lying in the devil's net, his stomach was already broken by the Tebo Warthog, and his hand was tightly pinching a bottle of flame whiskey spilled all over the floor..."
Hagrid whimpered at her nose, looking extremely sad.
"Hagir, what is the Devil Net?"
Hagrid shivered, as if reminding of Robert's death.
"The Devil's Net is an extremely dangerous vine that, when mature, can stretch out tendrils and wrap around people close to it, causing the wizard to be injured."
Hager complained: "I want to say that such dangerous plants should be eliminated, otherwise it will easily harm the fragile magical creatures in the forbidden forest.
I don’t know why Professor Sprout wanted to collect the Devil’s Nets. It’s such a strange hobby…”
William squinted his eyes and carefully recorded the knowledge of the magic world taught by Hagrid.
He felt something was wrong. In Hagrid's words, it seemed that magical creatures were fragile, cute, friendly, and simple...
For example, the eight-eyed giant spider named Aragork that Hager just mentioned... in his description, it seems to be a hundred times more adorable than Popo Tea.
Hagrid also invited William to take care of Aragork's leg hair.
Oh my God, are there such cute creatures in the magic world?
William inexplicably developed a trace of yearning for the Forbidden Forest.
...
...
The car drove for half an hour before reaching its destination.
"It's here." Finally, there was no need to take the bus anymore, Hager raised his head excitedly.
With a "bang", his head hit the roof of the car.
Hager rubbed his head, and there seemed to be no big problem, but there was a slight bulge on the roof.
Roy took a daze and turned to excitement. He finally had reason to talk to Leana about changing into a new car.
"Oh, sorry, I'll handle it." Hager said.
"It's okay." Roy waved his hand generously, as if this matter was not worth mentioning.
"Recover as before." Hagrid took out his pink umbrella and gently tapped the roof of the car, and the bulge disappeared immediately.
"..." Roy discovered something terrible. When William learned magic, wouldn't he drive the car until he died?
After getting off the car, Hagrid took the two of them into a bustling street, which was crowded with people.
There are bookstores, record stores, hamburger stores, and cinemas on the street... They look ordinary, but there is no broken cauldron bar mentioned by Hagrid.
etc……
William finally found a brand in an inconspicuous corner, which was a worn-out brand with a black crucible on it and a few words marked with the word "Broken Cauldron Bar" with a highlighter.
Hager smiled and said, "It's the Broken Cauldron Bar here. It's a very famous place and the oldest bar in London. It's much earlier than any Muggle bar."
Hager's words were full of pride, but Roy was confused and he saw nothing.
"A small problem, in order to prevent being discovered by Muggles, there are a lot of confusion curse here. It is also one of my responsibilities to help Muggles families enter Diagon Alley."
According to Hagrid, there are also confusion spells and Muggle expulsion spells near Hogwarts. Without the guidance of a wizard, Muggles would not be able to enter.
Although Hager was proud of the Rolled Cauldron Bar, he found out that it was a dirty and cramped bar after walking in.
I'm really sorry for its ancient name.
William glanced at the infrastructure inside with disgust. It was not only old, but also very messy.
What a waste, it occupies the best place and has a strong traffic.
If William is the boss, he must at least raise the decoration by several levels, and then create the first one-stop service in the magic world that integrates food, chess, bathing, massage, singing and other one-stop service.
Don’t call it a bar, just change it to the Poké Club!
Decoration plans, publicity planning, marketing strategies, celebrity endorsements... These Williams have already made some drafts, and the only thing they still lack is... money!
He touched his pocket, and there were only a few pence in it... Poor, how could an eleven-year-old boy give a lot of money?
William couldn't help but miss the scratchpaper again.
He also wanted to experience the simple and boring life of rich people!
