Chapter 646: Planting Grass in the Vegetable Garden
In the wizarding world, due to the development of the plantation industry, the profit margins of raw materials are gradually diluted.
Wizards no longer take care of their own gardens.
They spend more time exploring the mysteries of magic and experimenting with more and more bizarre potions.
If you need raw materials, you can buy what you want at a low price at any gathering place in the wizarding world, and Diagon Alley, the most prosperous commercial street in the wizarding world, claims to have everything you need.
None of this exists now.
At least for Lin Dong, a lonely magician.
He couldn't buy any cheap raw materials.
The things in the wizard's shop are darker than the dark wizard's black magic, and Lin Dong is also keenly aware of the shameless behavior of the system to add money.
In this regard, the system explained that due to the increase in the cost of procurement across time and space, the price was increased as a last resort.
Hell cross-plane procurement.
The whole is a profiteer.
Lin Dong has very reason to suspect that the system is a dark wizard, and she should be called a black system.
In order not to be exploited by the system, Lin Dong experimented in this Muggle world, trying to grow and breed some raw materials.
The common potion materials used as experiments all look pretty good.
After picking, it does exert a stable magical effect, which shows that the son of the dragon and the phoenix and the mouse will make holes.
As long as the seeds are okay, what is grown must be useful.
If he really can't return home for three or five years, he even plans to use the Traceless Stretching Charm to make a small world, which is the inspiration given to him by the new Harry Potter extended series film "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".
It's Newt's kind of box.
This is not something that is easy to come up with, Lin Dong is not very good at the Traceless Stretching Charm, because this thing is of no value to a rich wizard at all.
If you want to use the gold gallons, go to the prop shop in Diagon Alley and buy it.
It's just a normal support skill.
In the wizarding world, Mr. Kleist was able to hold a dragon in his pocket.
It's useless to say anything now, everything has to be on your own.
Lin Dong closed the courtyard door, untied the small wand from his wrist, and cast a spell on the sky of the courtyard, and a layer of fog that was almost invisible to the naked eye gradually rose.
This thing is of limited use, but it can banish Muggles and block Muggles' view.
The occlusion here is that when Muggles look here, they can only see what Lin Dong wants them to see.
And the effect of expelling Muggles is simple.
When Lin Dong goes to other places to film, he will also use similar magic, and people who are not recognized by him will turn around and go back for various reasons when they walk to the door of his villa.
Today's mist has a similar effect.
Several herbs for the experiment were writhing in the vegetable garden at this time, as if they were alive.
If you pull it harder, it will scream.
Fortunately, they don't show this side in front of Muggles, who see them as ordinary herbs.
"You go over there, I'm going to plant Mandela here." Lin Dong picked up the herbs and drove them aside.
And the few herbs that were dragged up were struggling desperately, and they obviously preferred it here.
Unfortunately, they can't resist the evil wizards.
The wizard buries a thumb-sized seed in the soil and casts a spell on the soil with a small wand......
Crazy Growth Spell!
The soil squirmed, and soon a new plant grew.
Mandrake.
Native to Europe, Mandela is about 30 centimeters tall, with branched roots that resemble a human body, mostly oval leaves, bell-shaped white or blue flowers, and juicy berries that are almost perfectly round.
There are treasures all over the body, and when they are mature, they can move around.
Legend has it that when a mandrake is uprooted, it emits a violent and piercing scream, and those who hear it will be cursed, deaf, insane, or killed, so people will not pull it out themselves, and picking mandrake is a mysterious and solemn event.
The ancient Greeks had a cruel way of collecting mandela: the mandrake was lassoed with a rope, and another section of the rope was tied to the hungry dog, and the meat was thrown out after standing far away, and the hungry dog would pounce on the meat, and at the same time, in order to drown out the scream, the dog would uproot the mandrake with the rope in order to blow the hunting horn.
Noble sorcerers do not adopt this method.
Wizards harvest herbs rarely kill plants directly, so magic plants have a long lifespan, and they can even be said to be friends of magicians.
The wizard will point his wand at it and discuss it amicably.
"I'll give you a piece of your roots, right now!"
Given the friendly attitude of the wizards, herbs rarely refuse unless they are alive and sick.
For ordinary people, mandrake is good for wound healing, the root is good for erysipelas, and the root is cut into slices and soaked in vinegar is good for gout, insomnia and surname.
For wizards, Mandela has so many uses.
The roots can be used to make sixty or seventy potions, and even if the Madera is forced to spit out some juice, it can greatly improve the effect of the herb and the success rate of crafting.
The newborn mandrake already had some intelligence, and it spat a few mouthfuls of juice around, and then the herbs that had already been driven into a corner immediately writhed and fled further into the corner.
"Well, I'm such a big garden, you can't occupy it alone." Lin Dong used his wand to use an immobility spell on it.
Then start growing other herbs, which are commonly used.
Those herbs that are not commonly used do not need to be planted, they can be purchased from the system store, and it is impossible to grow too many things in such a big place.
Planting is hard work.
Only desperate wizards, or wizards who are very untalented, go back to this kind of profession, and Venerable Auror does not belong to any of the above.
The two vegetable gardens are full.
He's also going to make these messy and weird things look like ordinary flower beds.
In exchange, the stomach is empty.
The energy that has been accumulated for a long time is consumed, and in a nutshell, it is to starve to death.
Without saying a word, the phantom shifts.
This is one of the common ways for wizards to travel, disappearing from one place to another in an instant.
It's more decent than the Floo powder used by elementary school students.
However, this spell has a lot of difficulty.
Because, once this spell fails, it will often cause a person to split - a part of the body is separated in two places, a piece of flesh is missing, and an organ is lost. If you are separated, you can be injured at least or even fatal if you are serious.
Using Phantom Shifter is probably the same as getting a driver's license in the Muggle world.
Hunger made Lin Dong can't wait to ride a bicycle slowly.
