Days to grind friendship at Hogwarts

Hermione also opened the envelope at this time and saw her prefect appointment letter and badge.

Compared to the reactions of Ron and Mrs. Weasley, she seemed less excited.

"Congratulations!" Harry let out a long breath, adjusted his mood and said to the two of them, but his tone was a little deliberate and a little unnatural.

"You must be rewarded for this, Ron!" Mrs. Weasley couldn't hide her excitement, and the twins who were pushed aside by her looked unhappy.

Ron looked a little unbelievable. This was the first time he had received a reward from his mother.

Mrs. Weasley was full of loving suggestions. Dress robes... new cauldrons, even a new mouse to replace Wormtail...

"To be honest, Mum, I don't really like Scabbers that much..." Ron said, "Besides, Fred and George have given me a new set of robes, and the cauldron is not necessary. It will last another year."

, when o..ls is over, I won’t have to take Snape’s training class anymore..."

"That makes sense..." Mrs. Weasley nodded, "Then what do you want?"

"A new broom...is that okay?" Ron asked in a low voice with a hopeful look on his face.

He also knew that compared to robes and cauldrons, broomsticks were obviously much more expensive, and considering the Weasley family's financial situation, they were considered a considerable expense.

"You don't want the very expensive ones like Nimbus!" Seeing his mother's face change slightly, Ron quickly added, "Just—just a new one, Sideswipe or Comet are both fine..."

Mrs. Weasley hesitated, then smiled.

"Of course...you guys hurry up and eat. We will go to Diagon Alley later to buy your gifts and everyone's textbooks for the new semester. It's good to live in Diagon Alley. You can buy everything as soon as you go out.

.”

Because of the attraction of the new broom, Ron ate breakfast quickly, put down his knife and fork early, and looked at the others eagerly.

Under the pressure of his gaze, everyone had no choice but to hastily solve the problem and go back to their rooms to change clothes.

Everyone pushed open the door and came to St. Martin's Lane behind the Wyndham Theatre.

Before the Phantom left, Mad-Eye, who was always cautious, specifically said: "It's not very peaceful now. You'd better pay more attention to safety and try not to separate, especially the children."

"Okay." Mrs. Weasley nodded and immediately looked at the twins.

Fred and George, who were already a little dissatisfied, said angrily: "Don't worry, we will definitely follow Prefect Ron closely and never leave."

After watching Moody, Kingsley and Tonks apparate away, everyone and Mundungus walked around Charing Cross Street and returned to Diagon Alley from the Leaky Cauldron.

After all, a large group of people suddenly squeezed out of the small wand shop, which would be somewhat noticeable.

Passing through the archway behind the Leaky Cauldron, Mundungus said goodbye to them here, saying that he was going to do an important business. Before leaving, he deliberately avoided Mrs. Weasley's sight and winked at the twins.

"We have to thank Dunge." Fred lowered his voice and said to Glenn, "He provided us with a lot of important raw materials."

George also echoed: "Yes, researching quick-acting truant candy requires a lot of prohibited trade products, both Category B and Category C. Only he can help us get them, although the price is a bit high."

"He is indeed very good at this." Glenn nodded and said, "But I can introduce you to Mr. Carmichael later, who is Eddie's father. He may be able to give you a more fair price."

"That's really great!" Fred's eyes lit up.

Everyone continued to move forward, and soon came to the entrance of the Quidditch boutique. The most conspicuous display rack in the floor-to-ceiling window still contained a carefully cared for Firebolt. It had been there for more than two years, and there was still no new broom to replace it.

its status.

"Let's go in and take a look, Ron. The Firebolt is too expensive and we can't afford it." Mrs. Weasley noticed that Ron's eyes were firmly fixed on the Firebolt and couldn't help but said.

"Oh! Of course.

.." Ron immediately came back to his senses and walked into the store full of expectations.

"This is Nimbus 2002. If it doesn't have the Firebolt, it should be the fastest model currently!" He pointed to the broom on the display stand next to the Firebolt. "But the price is too high. I'm afraid my mother won't agree."

Glenn watched him go around the store and suggested: "I think you can look at the Sideswipe or the Comet. They are both the latest models this year and have good value for money."

The clerk standing behind the counter was the girl who sold the Firebolt before. She recognized Glenn at a glance and quickly came over to introduce him to them.

"This is the latest model of Sideswipe Eleven. The broom handle is made of Spanish oak, and its toughness is no worse than that of Nimbus." She said with a smile, "This layer is anti-toxic varnish, which can make you safer during the game.

.This generation of Sideswipe also adds an innovative design and built-in vibration control to make the flight more stable."

"Sounds good..." Ron said thoughtfully, "What about acceleration performance? I remember it said in "The Complete Book of Flying Broomsticks" that a comet can reach a speed of 60 miles per hour in ten seconds..."

"If you have a higher need for acceleration, I think the sweep is the best choice." The clerk continued, "The performance of the Comet can only be achieved when there is a tailwind, while the performance of the sweep is 70 miles per hour, and there is no need to consider the wind direction.

"

...

After some discussion and entanglement, Ron finally made up his mind and chose Sweep Eleven on the advice of the store clerk.

Although this series is very cost-effective, Mrs. Weasley still felt a little distressed when she saw the price. Fortunately, the clerk was smart enough and gave the highest discount without hesitation, helping them save a lot of Galleons.

After getting Ron's reward, everyone left the Quidditch Boutique and headed to Flourish and Blotts Bookstore.

When passing by the Eela Owl Shop on the way, I stopped to wait for Harry to buy owl rations for Hedwig.

At this time, an advertisement on the window of a three-story shop not far away caught the twins' attention.

Glenn followed the two people's gaze and saw that it was a sublet advertisement.

.

Wangpu sublet

Busy location, beautifully decorated

Price negotiable

.

Seeing the twins' expressions, Glenn immediately guessed what they were thinking.

"What? Do you have any ideas about this store?" he asked with a smile.

Opening a serious joke shop has always been the twins' dream. With Glenn's investment, their research and development has become more and more successful, and this dream has naturally gradually been put on the agenda.

Fred nodded and said: "The location of this store is very good. It is not far from the Quidditch boutique. There must be many young customers, and the size is suitable. If these floor-to-ceiling windows are decorated with magic fireworks,

As an advertisement, it will definitely attract a lot of people's attention..."
