Harry Potter and the Great Old Ones

Chapter 103 Economic Acumen

"Here, Tiera!" Harry put two neatly packed wooden boxes into Tiera's hands——

Tiera had no choice but to take the wooden box blankly.

"Harry...you really don't have to do this..." Even though she was separated from the wooden box, Tiera could feel the majestic magic of the two magic materials in her hands.

Needless to say, the phoenix is ​​an extremely powerful magical creature that can fight basilisks and swallow death curses. Its tail feathers are the main material for wands and many potions.

Although there is only one hanging outside the Jiggs Magus pharmacy, and the price is shockingly expensive——

It requires sixty-seven gold galleons.

But this one stick is enough for Tiera. At least Tiera can initially complete the magic ritual of "life reconstruction"——

Alchemy follows the principle of equivalent exchange, that is, life does not arise out of thin air, new life must come from old life.

But there is an exception, that is, extremely active magic materials can be used——

Such as the Philosopher's Stone, or a large amount of elixir of life.

Another example is any part of the Phoenix's body.

Of course, the flames of tears and Phoenix rebirth are the best.

Feathers, bones, and blood come next.

The tail hair of the cat and leopard is another powerful magic material.

These cats and leopards are extremely powerful magical creatures with intelligence similar to that of humans. They are native to Appalachia and now mainly live in the Americas. They can walk upright like humans and run faster than arrows.

A pair of golden eyes possess the power of hypnosis and Legilimency.

The most precious thing about a leopard cat is its eye nerves, followed by its tail hair - both are excellent materials for making wands.

Then Tiera, Harry and the other two members of the deducted trio wandered around the potion shop for a while. When Tiera came out, except for the two wooden boxes containing ocelot tail feathers and phoenix tail feathers,

In addition, there are three large bags of various medicinal herbs——

Fresh white bamboo, mandrake roots, dried human-faced frogs, centipede fangs, wolf spider silk, Pegasus' sideburns, poisonous horns——

They all came from Harry. Harry bought every potion and medicine that Tiera picked up and put down, packaged it and gave it to Tiera.

When paying the bill, Tiera looked up at Harry in shock.

[Tiera must be sad because I doubted him. These things should make him feel better! 】

Harry looked at Tiera expectantly.

"Thank you, Harry! Thank you!" Tiera could only squeeze out a big, bright smile.

[Great, Tiera smiled!]

Tiera "heard" Harry say this in his head again.

Yes, a thousand pieces of gold can buy you a smile, and I will become your concubine.

It's not okay for Harry to do this. What if he is deceived if he is so innocent?

After all, although "Harry Potter" is called "children's literature", it gets darker as you go further.

I never felt that before when I watched movies and novels.

Why is Harry so silly and sweet now?

Tiera thought helplessly, while holding the large and small bags of medicinal materials tightly with both hands.

This is not okay, he should let me take care of his money, otherwise if he is cheated...

No! Tiera felt excited.

I'm greedy again.

Tiera took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

After leaving Jiggs Magus Drug Store, they wandered around the streets again.

Tiera bought a color-changing scarf at Madam Malkin's robe store and gave it to Harry. Harry happily wrapped it around his neck——

But Harry quickly took off the scarf and stuffed it into his pocket.

Because it is still midsummer in August.

When passing by Florin's cold drink shop, Harry bought another ice cream for each person.

At the end of the hour, Hermione and Ron went to Flourish and Blotts Bookstore first, while Harry and Tiera returned to Gringotts again——

After just buying phoenix tail feathers, cat and leopard tail feathers and a lot of other medicinal materials at Ziggsmagus Potion Shop, Harry didn't have much gold Galleons left in his pocket, and he couldn't afford to buy Gilderoy Lockhart.

of those nine books.

So Harry had to go back to his vault again and grab two big bags of gold galleons.

Harry even wanted to put a handful directly into Tiera's pocket, but Tiera refused righteously——

Please don't corrupt my dirty soul with the gold coins of sin.

Seeing that Tiera refused to accept it, Harry had no choice but to give up.

When they arrived at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, they were a few minutes later than expected.

When they arrived at the bookstore, they found a large group of people crowding outside the store, all wanting to get in. A large banner was pulled out from upstairs:

Gilderoy Lockhart's autobiography "The Magical Me" is for sale today at 12:30-4pm

"We can meet him in person!" Hermione screamed with joy when she saw Harry and Tiera arriving. "I mean, almost all the books on the list were written by him!"

Most of the crowd seemed to be witches of Mrs. Weasley's age. A tired-looking wizard stood at the door and said: "Ladies, be quiet... don't crowd... watch out for the books..."

Harry pulled Tiera, Ron, and Hermione through the cracks.

A winding queue stretched from the door to the back of the bookstore, where Gilderoy Lockhart was signing books and selling books.

While passing by the stacks of books, Hermione asked Harry, Ron, and Tiera each to grab a few of Gilderoy Lockhart's works.

Hermione got "Magical Me" and the best-selling "Breaking with Ghosts".

Harry took "Holiday with a Dominatrix", "Walking with Ghouls" and "Magical Me".

Ron's "Wandering with Werewolves" and "Traveling with Vampires".

Since Tiera had already stuffed all the medicinal materials she bought into her suitcase on the way here, Hermione also stuffed two books into his hand——

"Magical Me" and...

"Magical Me".

"Hermione, I don't need it. I have already bought the textbooks for this semester and sent them back to the school through the owl post office." Tiera said and wanted to put down the book in her hand.

Although he actually didn't buy it at all, he didn't plan to buy it either——

Anyway, the Defense Against the Dark Arts taught by Gilderoy Lockhart is the same whether it is in a book or not.

If he has this money, why don't he buy something else?

"You're stupid! Have you seen such a long queue of witches?" Hermione yelled at Tiera anxiously, "Now a book only costs fifteen gold galleons, but wait until we squeeze in to find it.

After Gilderoy signs it, he sells it to the witches standing outside the door. One copy can be sold for at least thirty gold galleons!"

Tiera:???

Aren't you extremely obsessed with Gilderoy Lockhart? Where did you get such a strong financial acumen?

Hermione grabbed two more books from the bookshelf, "Walking with Ghouls" and "Gilderoy Lockhart Teaches How to Get Rid of Household Pests", and tucked them under her arm.

"If Gilderoy Lockhart can be asked to write some confessional words of love, then the book will sell for at least fifty gold galleons!" Hermione's eyes were blazing, like a belligerent bullfighter.
