Chapter 13 The Women in the Store

Chapter 13 The Women in the Store
Ed is a lazy man, a lazy man in life.

General researchers have such problems, because they don't have more time to take care of other things.Ed was one of them. Ever since he came to the magic world, Ed seldom worried about life-related matters, even when he went out.

Because the two house-elves in the family will help him organize everything.

Coupled with the fact that the goblins in Gringotts give Papa LeMay's Golden Galleon every year, it makes Ed even more lazy. Anyway, he doesn't have to worry about his livelihood, he just needs to focus on the things he cares about.

Wait, did you just ask: Why did Gringotts give King Galleon to Flamel's father?
It's not interest, Gringotts is not a bank, it's just a vault.The functions of those banks are just businesses launched by goblins who love gold. How can goblins who love gold let others take away their beloved wealth?
The reason for giving it to Papa LeMay, Jin Gallon, is because Papa LeMay possesses the Sorcerer's Stone. If Papa LeMay is allowed to turn the stone into gold, the economic system created by the goblin will collapse, and the gold will be worthless!
In order to get more gold, the goblins had no choice but to part with each other and give Lemay part of the profits every year.It also allowed the LeMay family to enjoy many privileges.

I have said too much, the matter of the Flamel family and the goblin will be mentioned later, and now the story returns to Ed.

When Mrs. Malkin finished the wizard robe, cloak, and wizard hat, they neatly placed them in front of Ed.Ed was a little reluctant to touch it for a while.

The clothes are all silver, without the pores or stripes that the fabric should have, as if it is one piece, and under the light that Mrs. Mojin specially lowered, the clothes exude a mysterious silver light, which makes the fine and dense peach wood table look beautiful. The tree rings are clearly illuminated.

"Wow!" These are the most stylish clothes Ed has ever seen.Just this appearance is worth fifty gold galleons (the purchasing power of one gold galleon is about 70 yuan).

Mrs. Malkin was very satisfied with Ed's reaction. Although she had a short and fat body, she was surprisingly flexible. She pinched the shoulders of the work robe above with both hands and draped it over Ed's body.

"Try it quickly, I think this is one of my most satisfying works." Madam Malkin urged.

Hearing Mrs. Malkin's words, Ed rolled his eyes while stretching his hands into his sleeves, and said, "Come on, ma'am. Every time my grandma comes, you will say this."

"Little Ed, you really know how to joke, haha." Mrs. Malkin replied with a smile, the bulging apple muscles on her fat face were very obvious.

Ed walked around in front of the mirror in his robe, feeling very satisfied, the glowing clothes were full of style.

Afterwards, the exclusive account book of the Le May family in Mrs. Malkin's shop floated over, and Ed grabbed the quill that also floated over, and signed his name on it.

When writing, Ed asked Mrs. Malkin: "Madam, where did you just say this cloth came from?"

"South America, what's wrong, kid?"

Ed wrote down in a small notebook in his heart that there is a magical butterfly in South America.

"Can you go into more detail?"

"Oh, child. This magic cloth is made from the silk squirted out by the larvae of the blue morpho butterfly. In addition to the functions introduced, it can also change its color according to the wearer's wishes."

After Ed heard it, he often tried it.He silently said black in his heart, and then the robe really turned black.

Mrs. Malkin added a little more, and said in a low voice: "Be careful, don't let the lake water get on your clothes."

"why?"

"Because the lake water will temporarily disable the magic on the clothes."

"Isn't it okay to add a waterproof spell?"

When Ed asked this question, Mrs. Malkin smiled and said, "My child, the magic resistance on this dress is very strong, no matter what kind of magic spell it is, it's hard to stay on it."

Wedge-engraving a spell on this magic material is itself a kind of destruction of the material.Unless the magic is more powerful, the lost magic resistance and some special functions are not worth the candle.

"But you don't have to worry too much. It only shows its original color when it is stained with lake water, and other attributes have not disappeared. If you want it to restore discoloration again, just let it bask in the first ray of sunlight the next day. "

"Okay, ma'am."

Ed nodded, signed and left.As for those clothes, the clerk will pack them up later and send them to the house where Ed and Dad came to Diagon Alley through the Portkey.Just pick it up there when you leave.

After Ed came out of Mrs. Malkin's private workshop, he just opened the door...

"Oh, sorry!" Ed accidentally bumped into a person standing outside the door.

Looking up, the little wizard who was hit by himself was wearing a large red wizard hat, covering almost the whole head, yellow, no, golden hair, wearing a glittering fabric, pleated, lace evening dress .

"It's okay." There was a delicate smile under the wizard's hat. Ed swore that this was the only good-looking smile he had seen in 11 years.

To ask the only thing there to look at, of course, is when you look in the mirror.

"Well...you are also a freshman at Hogwarts? Why are you dressed like this? I remember it was an evening dress, and it was only worn at banquets."

Ed felt that she must be from a Muggle family, otherwise, wouldn't it be a trip to Diagon Alley, wouldn't the crystals be scratched off by the passing crowd if she was so delicately dressed?

After speaking, Ed looked down, and sure enough, she was wearing a pair of small high-heeled shoes.The edge of the skirt has already turned earthy yellow, and there are some black footprints.

Elizabeth Mountbatten, who noticed Ed's gaze, couldn't help but retract her foot and hide it in her skirt.Seeing that her skirt was dirty again, she couldn't help but blushed.

Ed shook his head, pulled out Groot's branch, and said a spell in his mouth: "Clean it up! Restore it!"

The descaling spell and the repairing spell were uttered to help this future classmate clean up his clothes: "Diagon Alley is just a normal street. There is still a while before I leave school. Come back here after you go back with your family and change your clothes." .”

After Ed finished speaking, he pushed aside the crowd waiting to make clothes, and left without looking back.

Elizabeth saw that her skirt was as new as if she had just bought it. It hadn't been washed off before, and the stains that made her feel distressed for a long time were gone.

She covered her small mouth with her hand to prevent herself from exclaiming, because she was so shocked that Elizabeth even forgot to ask the name of the little boy who just bumped into her.Judging by his clothes, he might also be a nobleman.

"Elizabeth? Elizabeth?" Elizabeth's mother, Bertha Mountbatten, was holding the bag of the clothes after she had finished paying at the cash register, and saw Elizabeth staring at the door in a daze: "Come and help mom get something!
Ma'am, can you lift your foot and step on my skirt! "

The location of the cash register is still very crowded. Mrs. Mountbatten's clothes make it difficult to squeeze through the crowd.The lady who stepped on Mrs. Mountbatten saw Mrs. Mountbatten's expensive clothes and deliberately pretended not to hear.

It seems that hatred of the rich is everywhere.

Seeing her mother, who never scolded anyone and was always proud like a swan, dragged herself out of the store angrily, Elizabeth couldn't help but feel funny.
