Wizards of Hogwarts

Chapter 66 A plan to make money by writing a book

The discussion about the relationship issues between Newt and Tina, Queenie and Jacob comes to an end.

Elrohir himself is not a person who likes to gossip. If it weren't for the fact that he happened to witness the "flirtation" between Newt and Tina before boarding the ship, he would not even talk about this topic.

In the final analysis, feelings are a matter between two people, and they involve very personal and private issues.

Even if the relationship between Elrohir and Newt is very deep, it does not mean that he can meddle in the emotional problems between Newt and Tina.As for Queenie and Jacob, it is not a problem that Elrohir needs to worry about.

In a blink of an eye, Elrohir had spent a whole day on the ferry.

In such an era when science and technology were not developed, ferry sailing speeds were limited, and ultra-long-distance ocean voyages such as across the Atlantic were extremely boring and took a long time.

And since she was on a ferry, surrounded by No-Majs who were not familiar with magic, Elrohir could not experiment with magic spells as she did in Goldstein's apartment, and could only pass the time by reading books.

Newt will get into the trunk of magical animals from time to time. After all, he has a large family of magical animals to take care of, and daily feeding is essential.

A cabin on the ferry at noon.

After finishing lunch, Elrohir sat on a cushioned chair, holding a thick history of magic in North America in her hands, reading it with gusto. The aforementioned Rappaport Law was learned through this book.

And because of the subject matter, the book "History of Magic in North America" ​​is not like other magic books in that the pages are full of movable portraits.The book "History of Magic in North America" ​​is more of a large-scale pure text record, which is more suitable for reading on a ferry full of No-Majs, without having to worry about being discovered.

Deborah the kitten curled up on Elrohir's lap, dozing off with her eyes squinted.

Logically speaking, magical animals should not leave the suitcase, but there are exceptions.

At Elrohir's feet, there was an open old suitcase. It was Newt's suitcase.

At this time every day, Newt would get into the box to feed the magical animals. It was also at this time that Deborah could run out and move around.

Otherwise, a little black cat with two tails like this would be noticed immediately.

pedal, pedal.

A sound of stamping on the stairs came from inside the box. Newt, who was covered in dust and had sweat on his forehead, crawled out. Feeding magical animals was not an easy task, especially when there were things like poisonous horned beasts and horned beasts in the box. A huge magical animal like a camel.

"It's over." Elrohir put the book down and handed Newt a glass of water.

It's not that Elrohir doesn't want to help Newt feed the animals, but someone must be outside to monitor the situation at this time, otherwise it will be a big trouble if someone sees it.

Elrohir's keen senses make him more suitable for this "lookout" job than Newt.

Newt took the water glass and drank it in one gulp, with a satisfied smile on his face: "Well, the two little horned camels have grown up a little. I have never observed the growth process of horned camels before. What a worthwhile day.”

Elrohir was very impressed by the horned beast, a magical animal whose chin was covered with fleshy tentacles. Its appearance was really special.

"Thank you for your hard work," Elrohir said.

"No, I enjoy it." Newt said, and then he looked at the kitten lying on Elrohir's lap and said, "Okay, Deborah, go back to the box."

"Meow" Deborah raised her limbs and made a ferocious expression towards Newt.

Except for Elrohir, Deborah never seemed to show a close attitude towards anyone, even Newt, whom she had been with for a long time.

Oh, by the way, Deborah is also very close to Nagini, that beautiful blood-cursed orc.

Elrohir gently stroked Deborah's back, and the kitten immediately became quiet again.

"Really," Newt said helplessly. He really envied Elrohir's ability to win the favor of most magical animals without any effort. "It makes people jealous."

"There are some things you can't envy." Elrohir said jokingly, "But Newt, there is something I want to talk to you about."

"What?" Newt found a chair and sat down, and cast a spell on the hatch. "Quickly imprison Colloportus."

The locking spell is used to lock or seal the door to prevent people from opening it directly with hands. The breaking spell is the unlocking spell alohomora.

Looking at Newt's movements, a piece of information emerged in Elrohir's mind, which came from the second level of the basic spell.

Well, the wizard's thing is not to be envied. Elrohir has not successfully cast a spell so far. I have tried all the spells in the two basic spell books I purchased, but none of them succeeded.

Wizards and Magic Elrohir thought to herself.

"What's the matter?" Newt asked.

"That's it." Elrohir said about him.

Elrohir wants to talk to Newt about nothing else, but how to make money.

Yes, Elrohir does still have some drow pots left in Elrohir's pocket as compensation from the fairies, but there are only about forty of them. The money comes quickly and is spent quickly.

Although forty Zhuoguo is converted into gold galleons issued by the British wizarding community, it is almost 40, which can allow a wizard with an average income to live a good life for several years.

But for Elrohir, 40 gold galleons are completely free of charge.

In addition to the necessary quality of life, Elrohir also needs to purchase many other things, such as some magic items that elves can use, such as magic books that record knowledge, and precious and special magic materials.

Of course, if one were careful with their budget, 40 gold Gallons and Elohir could indeed be used for a long time, but this was not in line with his plan and would even seriously slow down the progress of the plan.

A look of embarrassment appeared on Newt's face. There may be some wizards in the wizarding world who are very talented in making money and doing business, but Newt Scamander is definitely not among them.

Before accepting the commission to write the book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Newt was just a poor Ministry of Magic employee with a weekly salary of 2 Sicol, and there was no way to make money at all.

Of course, Newt knows that many magical animals have extremely valuable materials, such as unicorn tail hair, Acromantula venom, Billywig stingers, and African tree snake skin.

But Newt will not deliberately obtain materials from those magical animals because of money. He also does not want to see Elrohir take this path. This is what bloody and dirty animal hunters will do. matter.

However, Elrohir came to Newt for discussion, not because he wanted him to point out a bright way to make money, but because he wanted to give Newt a reference as to what the path he wanted to take was like.

"What do you think, if I write a book too?" Elrohir asked Newt, "Writing books makes money."
