Chapter 4 Opening

Pushing open the door, Bernard was choked by the dust on his face and coughed several times before stopping, looking at the dusty room, Bernard had to helplessly shout: "Bell, clean the room, especially my laboratory, must be cleaned!" I'll go out for a drink first! ”

Comfortably putting down his glass, Bernard in the tavern changed his costume and was flipping through a copy of the Daily Prophet (overseas edition) in his hand, the headline on which clearly stated that Arthur Weasley's family won the Gringotts Grand Prize for the British Ministry of Magic, and Mrs. Weasley said that she would use the prize money to travel to Egypt, because their eldest son was working at Gringotts in Egypt, and they would be reunited with their eldest son during their trip to Egypt.

At the bottom of the report, there is also a photo of the Weasleys, looking at the speck that was held in Ron's hand, or Peter Pettigrew, Bernard couldn't help but sneer, another opportunity for himself has come, the wealth of the Black family, he has coveted it for a long time.

……

Egypt is a place full of dreams and adventures, both in the wizarding world and in the Muggle world, and the tall pyramids are the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient Egyptian civilization for Muggles, and are ancient ruins worth exploring, attracting countless archaeologists and tomb robbers, which leads to countless lives lost here every year.

Under the International Federation of Wizards, there is an excellent mobile force, this team of elite wizards is mainly responsible for dealing with the mysterious, occasional, and potentially revealing events of a mystical nature in this world, and in Egypt, this mobile force has always had a permanent team, in order to protect these Muggles who came here for archaeology or tomb robbing.

Although every pyramid that has been discovered has been cleaned by wizards, and if there is an ancient curse or magic trap that cannot be broken, then there will be a powerful "Muggle Expulsion Charm" and "Confusion Charm" that will be placed there, and it will be guarded by special personnel, it can be said that there are few places in the world that need to be so tense as Egypt.

This is entirely because the pharaohs of ancient Egypt were themselves the top wizards of an era, and they were also the kings of the Muggle world of that era, and this unification of the two worlds brought the magical civilization of ancient Egypt into a powerful heyday, but it was also this kind of enslavement and empty consumption of national power that brought Egypt into the abyss of chaos.

The modern weak Egyptian Ministry of Magic is completely incapable of inheriting these precious treasures left by its ancestors, so for the peace of the wizarding world and the Muggle world, under the joint operation of the ministries of magic of various countries in the world, the Egyptian Ministry of Magic has to give up a lot of interests, among which the permanent squad of the mobile unit under the International Federation of Wizards mentioned above is one of the typical features.

In addition to this resident team, Gringotts in Egypt is also one of the busiest Gringotts in the world, where the goblins ushered in their favorite, that is, wealth and blood, so many goblins are proud to work in Egypt, and in the same way, every year the goblins of Gringotts recruit countless excellent wizards to fill the Egyptian exploration team and management team, because their high attrition rate every year is scary, but that's it, greedy goblins and wizards still continue to invest new wizards in it every year.

You know, every wizard who can become a spell solver, appraiser, and restorer needs to be proficient in magic science, charms, potions, herbology and other disciplines, and need to get excellent grades.

Someone once sighed, "The desert at sunset is like a fascinating golden ocean, which fascinates every wizard who comes here!" Beneath this deceptive statement is a masked speck of blood and bones, so in the Egyptian black market, there is a saying, "Under this enchanting sea of gold, there are countless ghosts waiting, waiting for you to become one of them!" ”

This sentence warns countless wizards who are waiting to make a fortune here, and wizards who always remember the second sentence can live here longer, such as Bernard, who is eager for knowledge, will naturally not let go of this treasure land of Egypt, and Bernard, who was born in an Auror, naturally has his own channels to open up the joints here, and successfully opened a shop in this neighborhood - the largest black market in Egypt.

There's a lot of stuff here, and you never know who's behind any of the shops in this neighborhood, because it's a place outside the law, and it's no joke, because it's a neighborhood where Muggles and wizards trade in violation of the strictest laws of secrecy in the wizarding world. Of course, although the trade between wizards and Muggles here is put on the table, every wizard here is subject to strict management and the constraints of the contract, that is, the existence of the wizarding world must not be exposed.

The mixing of Muggles and wizards can be said to be the biggest feature here, the special witchcraft culture in Africa has led to an indescribable belief in the occult culture here, and the aborigines here can easily accept some supernatural phenomena, which is entirely because the desert in Egypt is too vast, there are too many unknown pyramids, and the wizards who erase the memories of Muggles are really busy, so there are always some mysterious phenomena recorded by Muggles.

This is also a major reason why the mysterious culture of the Muggle world mainly comes from Egypt, and at the same time, there are some wizards who intend to promote the formation of this situation, because it has to be said that Muggles have a large number of people than wizards, which makes it easier for them to find some magical treasures than wizards, and the treasures left by these ancient wizards often cannot be found by spells, which leads to the fact that the naked eye is more reliable than spells, so in the hands of some Muggles, there are indeed some good things, and under the influence of these reasons, this black market has been successfully established.

Bernard walked back and forth in the store several times, and found that Bell was really clean, and he couldn't see what this room was like before, so he was satisfied, and took out a high-grade speculum and a demon mirror from his bag and placed them in a hidden corner, arranged a few alarm spells, and took out the fake antiques and some simulated alchemy props he had prepared before, and put them on the counter in a grand manner, and Bernard started his new life as a shopkeeper here.
