During the second week of the Easter holidays, Kyle remained the same as before, leaving the common room after breakfast every day and not returning until the evening.

But instead of going to the library or the eighth-floor room of requirement, he spent the whole day in an abandoned classroom on the third floor of the castle.

And he wasn't alone, there were Fred of Gryffindor, George, Cho Chang of Ravenclaw, Connor and Cedric in the classroom.

There were six people in total, and they were busy in this small classroom.

"Kyle, can you take a look at this pattern?" Qiu Zhang put down the knife in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "I don't feel a little wrong." ”

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if it's a little flawed." Kyle said without looking up, "No one can see it anyway, it's about that." ”

Kyle also holds a knife in his left hand and a twig in his right hand

- The branches of the Yamanashi tree, the ones brought back from the Forbidden Forest.

Kyle first shaved off the bark and the excess, and then skillfully used the knife in his hand to carve irregular lines on it.

Soon, an oval wooden pendant was made, and the surface of the pendant was also engraved with a figure of a wand and quills crossed.

Next to him, there are many similar pendants, some oval, as well as triangular and square.

Like Kyle, the other five went straight from wizard to carpenter, fiddling with the branches.

When it was close to noon, Fred patted the sawdust on his body, looked at the "fruits of his labor" in the morning, and couldn't help frowning: "Kyle, can these things we make really sell?" ”

The others looked up at Kyle as well.

They were called here by Kyle two days ago, saying they were going to make a big deal.

With the previous successful experience of selling maps, they were quite excited at first, and they didn't suspect anything, and they were very cooperative and obeyed Kyle's arrangement.

But I didn't expect Kyle to take them to cut the wood for two days, and they weren't allowed to use magic, the kind that was cut by hand.

This made several people a little incomprehensible.

"It should work."

Kyle thought for a moment and said, "The Yamanashi Tree Amulet is still quite popular in the wizarding world. ”

"Wait...... What do we do is a talisman? George asked incredulously.

The main reason is that they have no experience as carpenters before, and although the carved things are not ugly, they are not easy to see, and the shapes are even more bizarre.

Even he didn't dare to say with a clear conscience that such a shoddy thing was a talisman.

"All you and Fred are doing is lumps of wood." Kyle said, "But it won't be the same when Connor and the others carve out the pattern on it. ”

Several of them looked at each other with a look at each other, skeptical of Kyle's words.

Unless these patterns are some special magical symbols, such as ancient runifens, otherwise, even if a hundred of them are carved, they will still be wooden lumps.

"Speaking of which......" Cedric couldn't help but ask, "what kind of pattern is this, how come I've never seen it?" ”

"That is a sign of passing the exam, and it can also be understood that you must pass every exam."

Kyle thought for a moment and explained, "At the Wizarding Council in 1790, the bill establishing the Wizarding Examination Authority was officially passed, and in the same year, Hogwarts conducted its first N.E.W.T.s exams.

At that time, young wizards who passed the exam would receive a special letter from the Ministry of Magic, and the envelope was printed with a pattern of a quill and a wand crossed over each other.

Later, this pattern became a sign of passing the exam, and at that time, many graduating students would draw this pattern and carry it with them before the exam in order to draw a good omen.

However, after Professor Marchban became the head of the examination board, this pattern was removed and replaced with a very ordinary envelope. ”

Fred and the others looked at Kyle dumbfounded, and subconsciously asked, "1790, that was already two hundred years ago, how do you know these things?" ”

"Read a book."

Kyle shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "If you've finished watching Hogwarts: A School History, you won't be so surprised. ”

Read a book...... That's fine.

Fred and George skimmed their heads at the same time and gave Kyle a thumbs up.

The book "Hogwarts: A History of the School" is big and thick, and it can be used as a shield when you hold it, and it is okay to turn two pages when you are idle and see what you are interested in, but it is too difficult for them to say that you can read it.

And not to mention Fred and George, even Cedric hasn't finished watching it.

That's not the point, though.

After this explanation, they also understood what Kyle meant.

While these things made of sornabe aren't really talismans at all, there's no denying that it's really appealing.

Especially at this time of age.

Even Fred and George were a little tempted.

If someone had sold it before their final exams last year, they might have paid for it.

"But Kyle, can't we use the Copy Charm?" Qiu Zhang asked suspiciously, "Just like the previous map, how easy it is." ”

"Of course you can, but that's a different price."

Kyle shook his finger, "I'm going to make three grades of products this time, high-end custom ten Galleons, handmade...... That is, the two Galleons we are doing now, and finally it is a one-time batch product, Wuxike. ”

"Is it so cheap?" Qiu Zhang didn't understand.

You must know that a map costs ten sicos, and they are all replicas, but this kind of sculpture is much more troublesome to copy than a map.

Without waiting for Kyle to explain, Cedric next to him seemed to think of something, turned his head and asked, "How much pocket money do you have now?" ”

"Pocket money?" Cho Zhang thought for a while and said, "It took a lot some time ago, and now there is probably about a Galleon left......

Suddenly, her words paused, and a sudden look appeared on her face.

"Got it."

Kyle laughs, "It's the end of the semester, and most people don't have much money left, and if the price is too high, they can't afford it even if they want to."

And this time we are no longer targeting only the freshmen of the first grade, but the whole school, and the number is several times more than before, so Wuxi is enough, and it is regarded as making friends. ”

Everyone automatically ignored Kyle's last sentence, and if memory serves, that's what he said when he was selling maps.

Wuxi is making friends, but what about the other two......

Fred and George lowered their heads without saying a word, and the branch in their hands seemed to take the shape of a golden Galleon, and all they had to do was to pull these Galleons out.

"By the way......" Kyle seemed to think of something and said, "It's not the ones made by the Copying Charm, remember to engrave the year at the end." ”
