I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - #155 - Chapter 155 Girl
On the second floor of the candy store, a small round wooden table is filled with all kinds of exquisite dishes. Just looking at the appearance makes people very appetizing.
Regarding Ella’s cooking skills, Ian is willing to call her ‘the strongest’. First of all, none of the hundreds of house elves in the Hogwarts kitchen can make such delicious food. Of course, he is not a pretentious person. He can still distinguish the difference between a cook who cooks large pots of rice and a chef who cooks exquisite private dishes. It is reasonable for him to be inferior to Ella.
After finishing the meal, there are desserts and drinks, and there is no need for him to worry about cleaning the cutlery and plates after use. He has enough clothes to stretch out his hands and eat to open his mouth.
But Ian knows very well that such a life is entirely based on his own strength. If he was really an ordinary third-year student, let alone a house elf, just those few beaters from last time could drain him dry.
Thinking of this, after taking a short rest, he picked up the pile of books again and began to look through them.
…
“This is obviously wrong…it simply lacks the core.”
On the second floor of the candy store, Ian squatted next to a dark cabinet, tapping the cabinet lightly with his wand, while not forgetting to check the books in his hands. This dark cabinet was the broken disappearing cabinet he bought from Bojin Bock. .
Two hours ago, he finally found a relatively comprehensive record of the Vanishing Cabinet, including the initial selection of materials, the burning of inscriptions, and even subsequent maintenance. This series of knowledge is all detailed in the book.
However, what is missing is the core, or a kind of energy. Because he had checked the entire cabinet repeatedly and almost dismantled it into parts, but he still found nothing, not even the slightest clue.
“I can only wait until school starts to bring the other one out, and let’s put the two together…” Ian looked at the disappearing cabinet helplessly and murmured to himself.
This is the only way he can think of for this top-notch alchemy tool. After all, the disappearing cabinets come in two sets.
…
In the evening, the door of the candy store was opened again. This was the second time after Malfoy that someone had visited in more than a month.
Therefore, he basically gave up on the so-called opening of business. He said without raising his head: “Welcome, just take whatever candy you like and put the money on the counter as ordered.”
“Is this how you run a candy store?”
A familiar voice came to his ears again, and Ian raised his head in surprise. “Hermione, why are you here?”
Although the girl’s tone was teasing, her clear eyes were full of smiles. “You’re not welcome? Or are you expecting someone else?”
“Other than you, who else can I expect? Besides, I haven’t done a single business at all this month, and I almost gave up.”
“How is that possible?” Hermione looked a little in disbelief. “Even if there are many candy shops on the main street, it won’t be so miserable, right?”
“Hahaha.” Ian said with a chuckle: “Don’t worry about that. Although there is no sales record in the store, I have my own customers, and the orders are very large.”
As he said that, he picked up the purchase list from the drawer and handed it to Hermione. The big customer he mentioned… Chun Chun was not big except for his big appetite.
The last time he returned to the apocalypse, he brought back nearly 500 galleons of candy for the three little guys. He was not disappointed either, and all the candies were successfully eaten before he returned.
Hermione was not polite at all. She took the purchase order from Ian and began to look at it one by one, frowning slightly from time to time. The level of seriousness is like a wife checking her husband’s credit card consumption records.
“Pfft…haha.” Seeing this, Ian could no longer hold back and laughed out loud.
“What are you laughing at?” Hermione put the order on the table and looked at Ian faintly.
Hearing this calm tone, he knew he was going to be bad. He was not afraid of Hermione getting angry, but he was afraid of this calmness. Facing Hermione in this state, the only right choice was to confess frankly. Dang even said honestly:
“I’m just thinking that you will definitely be a good and qualified wife in the future. The way you looked at the orders just now is exactly the same as what you showed on TV.”
Unlike other pure-bloods, Hermione was not too familiar with TV movies. In an instant, she could think of many romantic love stories she had seen before.
An imperceptible shyness flashed through her eyes, and she also thought that the way she looked at the purchase order just now was indeed very similar to what she saw on TV.
Thinking of this, she glanced at the boy who made her angry with some anger, but she also dropped the topic.
Hermione said softly: “Okay, but the profits from such a large order are indeed considerable.”
“Of course. One order like this a month is actually enough. By the way, I’m giving you a gift. I think you will definitely need this thing. I got it from a lottery.”
After he finished speaking, he handed Hermione the shopping coupon he had prepared.
When Hermione saw the shopping coupon, she opened her mouth in surprise, then looked at him suspiciously. “Are you sure this is a lottery? I’ve gone shopping before, and I’ve never heard of Ms. North organizing any activities like a lottery.”
“Don’t worry about this. Now… no, you can go to the store tomorrow and ask Ms. North to see if I lied to you.”
Seeing Ian’s confident words, the suspicion on Hermione’s face slowly disappeared. After all, she would get the answer just by asking in the store tomorrow.
“Although it’s a lottery…” Hermione still looked at the shopping coupon in her hand, still a little confused. “But it’s too much, can I help you sell it?”
Seeing this, Ian felt very lucky.
Hermione almost had the word “want” written on her face, but her first thought was to sell it instead of accepting it with peace of mind.
“Take it quickly, you should know that I am not short of money.” He said and put the shopping coupon into Hermione’s pocket. “Besides, this is my salary advance for you.”
“Salary?” Hermione was a little confused when she suddenly heard unfamiliar words.
“Yes, salary. How about you come to my candy store to do part-time work during the summer vacation?” Seeing Hermione’s hesitation, Ian decided to add another fire. “Just help me. As you can see, I don’t know how to run this place, otherwise I wouldn’t have no sales for a month.”
Hearing this, Hermione no longer hesitated, nodded very seriously, and then said: “Okay, I will help you run the candy store during the summer vacation.”
After a preliminary agreement was reached, Ian took Hermione up to the second floor. He had no intention of hiding the matter of house elves, and he couldn’t hide it. It was better to be honest now than to be discovered in the end.
