“Real estate?” Ivy was stunned for a moment after hearing Ian’s question, but quickly recovered. “Oh, yes, I was going to tell you in the next two days.”
Looking at Ian’s expectant eyes, Ivey spread his hands in embarrassment. “Sorry, the manor is not for sale. There is only one very remote shop in Diagon Alley with the intention to sell it, and it is just an intention. There are several old houses in Hogsmeade listed. If you need it, I will give you this information now. for you.”
“Yes, I need it, thank you.” Ian answered directly without any pretense. “It’s summer vacation soon. I feel like if I can’t find a house soon, I’ll have to stay in the Leaky Cauldron for two months.”
Ivey didn’t say anything. He turned around and went to look for something on the bed shelf. He quickly brought out a piece of parchment filled with information and handed it to Ian.
“Here, all the information is here. You can write to the landlord first and you can agree on a time by yourself.”
Ivy, this is a standard Ravenclaw approach, very smart. The moment the information is sent out, the favor is there. As for the subsequent matters, I will not be involved at all. Whether this matter succeeds or fails, it is the business of Ian and the seller, and has nothing to do with Ivy.
“Leave the rest to me. Anyway, thank you this time.” He also knew very well what Ivey was thinking. That’s what makes friends with smart people so easy.
He looked at Ivy who was hesitant to speak, and it was obvious that the other person still had something to say. “Just say whatever you have to say. Besides, do I seem like the kind of person who cares about other things?”
“Okay.” Ivey might be waiting for his words. “It’s the Malfoy family. They didn’t know where they found out that you and I live in the same dormitory. Then, I was asking around about real estate some time ago, but there are only three people in this dormitory, so it’s easy to guess some things.”
Having said this, Ivey paused and found that Ian didn’t have any displeasure on his face, so he continued:
“I don’t know what happened between you, and I don’t want to know. I’m only responsible for spreading the word that the Malfoy family wants to invite you to visit their manor during the summer vacation. Also, Old Malfoy told me privately that he was There is a two-storey shop for sale in Corner Lane, and it is in a prime location.”
After Ivy finished speaking, he looked at Ian apologetically.
“Hahahaha, I get it. Since someone is coming to your door, why refuse?” Ian said in a relaxed tone. At this moment, he really admired the Malfoy family’s smoothness and shrewdness. As long as they were willing to shed blood, they could kill The previous conflicts turned into opportunities for acquaintance, thus exchanging favors.
Be willing to give up, be willing to give up, gain can only come after giving up. Regarding the Malfoy family, he somewhat understood Voldemort’s mentality. Although he was not loyal enough, he was really shrewd. This kind of person was very easy to use.
Thinking of this, he said to Ivy: “Please give Malfoy a message for me. I will go to the appointment on Friday of the second week of summer vacation.”
Listening to Ian’s tone, Ivey was obviously relieved. “I know, I’m going to tell them the good news.”
As if thinking of something again, Ivey turned around and came back. “The person in charge of the publishing house asked me to ask you if you can participate in the promotion activities of the new book during the summer vacation. It would be best to hold a few more book signings.”
Different from the previous invitations from the Malfoy family, he was not interested at all in autograph sessions and so on, and immediately refused:
“I probably won’t have time to attend the book signing. Moreover, I think the publisher is not stupid. They know very well that the book does not need excessive publicity at all. Only by giving it time to ferment can its taste be more mellow.”
Ivey obviously knew that what Ian said was the truth and there was no exaggeration. After all, he was the first person to read that book.
“Okay, you can make up your mind on these things. However, I am looking forward to your next book. To be honest, “Rosen’s Fantasy Journey” is very good.”
…
I looked at my two roommates. One was lying on the bed and feeling sore, while the other was writing letters on the table. He turned around and opened it with his dragon skin bag. He had better tell Dumbledore about borrowing books early. After all, after the banquet this afternoon, it would be summer vacation.
In the corridor on the eighth floor, as soon as Ian approached the principal’s office, the stone beast guarding the door turned on its own to make way for him that was blocked behind him.
Seeing such a knowledgeable guard, he also lamented the funny scene in the books he had read where the senior time travelers took the list of Honeydukes candy and told the stone beast the name of the dish in order to enter the principal’s office door.
After walking through a short corridor and spiral staircase, we arrived at the main hall of the principal’s office. Dumbledore was still sitting on the table, tasting the candies he could never finish.
After seeing Ian’s figure, Dumbledore raised the black tea in his hand and motioned for him to come over and taste the candy together.
“I thought you would come to me early, but I didn’t expect you would wait until the last day of vacation.” Dumbledore’s tone was like that of an old friend chatting.
Ian did not answer directly, but picked up a pile of squirming cockroaches on the table and put it in the mouth. He felt the slight collision of the cockroach’s tentacles and limbs in the mouth, followed by the burst of lemon honey juice.
After eating several piles of cockroaches in a row, he said with some unfinished content: “It’s not what you think, I’m mainly here to borrow books.”
As he spoke, he took out two books from the infinitely extending dragon skin pocket he carried with him, spread them out and placed them on the table, so that Dumbledore could just read the names of the two books.
Dumbledore looked at the voluptuous purple cover of “Forbidden Souls” and the dark red “Bloody Alchemy”, and he suddenly fell silent.
After a moment, there was no sadness or joy in his tone, and he said very calmly: “I have never seen these two books. Hogwarts itself is a place full of secrets. No one can understand everything about it, even as the principal. No way either.”
Dumbledore said, and took out another book with a black cover from the drawer. It was the “Advanced Black Magic Revealed” mentioned in the original book. It had three colors and three systems: black, red, and purple. It was like this at this moment. It is placed safely on the long table in the principal’s office.
“If it weren’t for Tom, I wouldn’t be able to read this book. How should I put it? The restricted book section of the library has existed for a long time. It was not deliberately divided by subsequent principals. Its existence is a bit similar to the Sorting Hat or the Room of Requirement. Different books will be displayed according to different users.”
After a short pause, he continued: “You should understand why Tom is determined to return to Hogwarts to teach after graduation. With this purpose, no matter what kind of position he applies for, I will reject it without hesitation. , even if it’s just the castle administrator.”
After Dumbledore finished speaking, he gently took off his half-moon glasses and looked at Ian tiredly.
“I don’t know if this is a blessing. Things that haven’t happened for hundreds of years have happened twice in a row in this hundred years, and both times were during my tenure at Hogwarts…”
