Chapter 349: Ministry of Magic
Overall, the gathering place of the Fire Dragon Sanctuary is quite good, and it is not as chaotic as Chris said.
At least Kyle didn't meet any strange people here.
It's just that those shopkeepers are too immoral and always sell him those unjust products that are expensive and impractical.
Fortunately, Charlie was with him, and as a "local" who had lived here for two years, he had long been familiar with every shop.
Most of the shopkeepers sighed when they saw him follow, and instead of trying to sell Kyle what they were talking about, they pulled out the real goodies out of the corner.
All in all, Kyle gained a lot from this trip, buying nearly three hundred Galleons of things.
At the end, Charlie was a little frightened when he looked at him again.
He knew Kyle was rich, but he didn't expect it to be so rich...... Buying things by the box, especially when buying those jewelry, it is almost full of inventory in the store.
Even if there is a discount, you can't do it...... More than 300 Galleons, and they were spent without blinking.
Charlie also tried to persuade Kyle to take it easy, and it wasn't such a waste of money to have money.
But Kyle shook his head, "You don't understand, Charlie, that might not be enough. ”
If it weren't for the fact that Newt had borrowed his box to observe Norwegian Ridgeback Dragon, and the limited space in the Shape-Shifting Lizard's Leather Bag, Kyle would have even wanted to buy another two hundred Galleons to bring back.
"Not enough?!" Charlie glared, "Do you have more than a hundred friends?" ”
"If anything...... Nothing more, no less. Kyle thought for a moment and said, "But I'm not here to give it away.
Many of the students at Hogwarts didn't have a chance to come here, and they certainly hadn't seen such a great specialty. It's a rare trip, and I bought it for them. ”
"Huh?" Charlie didn't understand what he meant.
Kyle didn't explain much, though, and Weasley wasn't very clever in that regard.
"Anyway......" he put away the large pile of parcels and looked up, "I may write to you again later, and when the time comes, you will have to trouble me to buy some more things to send to Hogwarts." ”
"That's fine." Zha Li nodded and agreed without thinking about it, "But it may not be so timely, you know, we only have two days off a month at most." ”
"It's okay."
Kyle smiled, "Moreover, I will give you money according to the original price, and you can keep the ones that the shopkeeper discounted for yourself......"
"How can this be!"
Kyle was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
Charlie seemed to feel that he was being underestimated, and said unhappily: "No matter how much you want, I will help you get a good discount, and I still have this face." ”
"No......" Kyle explained, "I mean, those count as your pay." ”
"What stupid are you talking about?" Charlie was even more unhappy, "What kind of pay do you talk about this little thing, what kind of person do you treat me for!" ”
"That's not what I meant......"
The two fought all the way, but they did not reach a consensus until they returned to the reserve.
No matter what Kyle says, Charlie says it's okay to help with the purchase, but he won't ask for anything anyway.
It's not that Charlie doesn't understand what Kyle meant.
It's nothing more than taking the specialties here to Hogwarts and selling them to other people for some extra money.
He understands everything, but he just doesn't want to take Kyle's money.
Also, Charlie doesn't think Kyle can sell much...... After all, he wasn't the first to do so.
Diagon Alley had one such shop, which specialized in some well-known local produce, and the last time he came home, he had seen Old John's handmade dragon tooth necklace inside.
But what about the business there...... Well, he's never seen more than two people in it...... Even at Christmas, or before school starts, it's the most crowded.
It's not okay to have a shop in Diagon Alley, let alone at Hogwarts, where the students only have a few dollars.
Charlie firmly believes that the ones he bought before will be enough for Kyle to last for a few years.
So as soon as he got back to the reserve, he patted Kyle on the shoulder and walked away without looking back.
Kyle could only smile helplessly.
Forget it, let's talk about it then.
……
In the last days of August, the people who had come to help began to leave the reserve.
Professor Rocknier also left, and before leaving, he invited Kyle to Beauxbatons...... It's not a transfer, it's just going to play.
Kyle readily agreed.
"I'll send you a copy when I'm done sorting out the information on the new species." With that, Professor Locknier left through the portkey.
There is also Edward Lima, who also said before leaving that he would send Kyle a new edition of The Monster Book of the Monsters.
……
Because Chris had to go through one more procedure to make a final handover with the Romanian Ministry of Magic, Kyle and Newt stayed here for another day in order to wait for him.
The portkey's destination was set at the Ministry of Magic.
When they arrived, a haggard male wizard hurriedly walked over.
"New arrivals come here to register and check their belongings...... Oh Chris, it's you. ”
"Arnold?" Chris looked at the visitor and wondered, "When were you transferred to the immigration office?" ”
"It's not a transfer."
Arnold said, "I'm here to help. ”
"Help?" Chris looked around.
There were indeed a lot of people, and there was a long line in front of the registration office.
"You're here to help maintain order?"
"It can't be ......," he sighed and said, "You know." Because of Sirius Black's affairs, the investigation here has been very strict recently, and there has been a shortage of manpower. ”
"It's so hard for you." Chris said, ready to go to the line.
"Oh...... Chris, you don't need it. ”
Arnold stopped him, "The portkey shows that you're back from the Romanian Ministry of Magic, and you can't have anything to do with that guy, right?" ”
"Of course." Chris nodded, "There were at least a dozen of them there. ”
"That's why I said no." Arnold casually scratched a few strokes in a notebook, and muttered in a low voice: "And Mr. Minister seems to have something important to look for you, I don't think he has the patience to wait for a few hours, and then I will be the unlucky one." ”
"The minister is looking for me?"
"yes, he was here half an hour ago." Arnold looked up at Kyle and Newt.
Chris hurriedly said, "This is Mr. Newt Scalmande, and my son Kyle, we are here together." ”
"Oh, Mr. Scamander......" Arnold was a little surprised, but he didn't stop moving his hand, and continued to write something in his notebook.
"Okay, there are three people in total, the registration is complete!"
Soon, he closed the notebook and said, "Let's go, don't let our minister wait." ”
A few minutes later, Kyle walked down the hallway of the Ministry of Magic, looking confused.
He was thinking about how to change the box to Muggle mode, but he didn't expect it to be released so easily, and he didn't even need to go through the process?
"Arnold Pisgood, he's a memory canceller, we've worked together a few times before."
Chris explained: "And the Romanian side should have contacted the Ministry of Magic in advance before we left, and there is generally no need to re-register in this case. ”
Then the three of them turned a corner and came to the golden main hall of the Ministry of Magic.
Because of the different itineraries, the three of them separated after coming here.
Chris takes the elevator to find Fudge, while Kyle and Newt make their way through the crowd to two long rows of fireplace passages.
The Ministry of Magic, like Hogwarts, forbids apparitions, so they decided to use Floo powder to go to the Cauldron and back from there.
The main thing is that Kyle is going to Diagon Alley, and Newt is just looking for a place where he can apparition, anywhere.
Because of the large number of visitors to the Ministry of Magic every day, even though there are a dozen fireplaces here, there are still some insufficiencies, and people continue to come out of it, and as soon as the green flame is extinguished, it will rise again.
After waiting for a few minutes, a fireplace was finally empty, and Kyle walked over briskly and threw a handful of Floo powder inside.
Kyle walked into the fireplace, and as the scene changed in front of him, he was soon from the bustling Ministry of Magic to the equally bustling Leaky Cauldron Bar.
Thank you for the tip.
