Chapter 72 71. Department for the Prohibition of Misuse of Muggle Articles

The business of selling experimental equipment did not last long. In just the past week, Dudley received news from Malfoy.

"Dudley, someone has reported you for misusing Muggle items."

It's interesting to say that there is a magical or boring agency in the Ministry of Magic called the Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Items. Many people will subconsciously think that this is the agency that prohibits wizards from using Muggle items.

In fact, no, that's just a misunderstanding of the literal meaning. They are mainly responsible for dealing with wizards' indiscriminate use of magic on Muggle items.

Some wizards are so idle that they cast spells on items used by ordinary people, and then sell these items to ordinary people. This behavior will cause many ordinary people to be injured and seriously violates the International Federation of Wizards' Secrecy Law.

Ron's father, Arthur Weasley, worked here, specializing in collecting these enchanted objects.

But after all, there are only a few such "fun-loving wizards", and most of the time the "Department for the Prohibition of the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts" is very relaxed.

"What? What should we do? Brother D won't be punished, right?"

After hearing the news brought by Malfoy, Harry stood up immediately and said with worry on his face.

Harry was more concerned about Dudley's affairs than his own.

Hermione put down the book in her hand and said calmly: "Don't worry, Harry. There will be no problem."

In fact, the Ministry of Magic does not prohibit any wizard from using Muggle items, but most wizards do not know how to use them and are unwilling to learn them, so there are very few Muggle items in the wizarding world. These wizards will not attribute the reason to themselves, but

I subconsciously thought that the Ministry of Magic banned the use of Muggle items and passed the blame to the Ministry of Magic.

Over time, it has become a custom that wizards subconsciously do not use Muggle products. In fact, even if you use them, you will at most be stopped, and it is definitely not illegal.

As Hermione said, there's no problem.

"Yes, Miss Granger is right, nothing will happen to Brother D."

Malfoy said.

When he heard Malfoy calling Dudley D, a hint of displeasure flashed on Harry's face, but his attention was quickly diverted.

The fight they had before was quite useful. At least the relationship between the two of them has not deteriorated any further. Of course, they still have some quarrels sometimes.

"But maybe we can't continue to sell those experimental equipment."

Malfoy continued.

However, since someone has reported it, the Ministry of Magic will still show off, but will not punish him. In addition, Dudley is only a young wizard, so he may not even receive a verbal warning.

"What? Why?!" Ron shouted.

He made a small fortune by selling equipment, and he was still immersed in the state of "I've made money, I don't know how to spend it." He was planning to use the money to make something for his family, but it turned out

Say no to it now.

You know, not to mention the Galleons of Ron before, if I could even take out a Sickle in my pocket, I would be considered a loser.

"Who is so hateful?"

Ron said viciously that he had just experienced the joy of a little money, and it was gone before he even started enjoying it.

"Who else could it be, it would have to be stupid Gryffindor."

Malfoy almost spoke with his nose: "Who else could be so boring besides them."

The way a few people make money is almost pure profiteering. Naturally, some people will be jealous. No one in Slytherin dares to offend Dudley. Ravenclaw is not that boring. Hufflepuff can only be Gryffindor.

Much more.

But as soon as Malfoy finished speaking, he realized that there were three Gryffindors present.

Harry didn't care if he was a Gryffindor or a Gryffindor. He only knew that someone in this shabby academy had persecuted his brother, but he didn't know who it was, so he could only sit aside angrily.

Hermione looked indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with her. She had never had a good relationship with the other little wizards in Gryffindor.

Only Ron looked a little embarrassed. He really thought of himself as a Gryffindor.

"It's okay. If you can't do it, just stop."

"I don't plan to do it often."

Dudley really has no intention of doing it in the long term. This kind of business is most likely a one-time deal.

Muggle experimental equipment is not a rare item that is kept secret. Other Muggle wizards can also obtain it through channels. He just wants to make a quick buck to spend this time.

Recently, the content of Snape's teachings has become more and more difficult and profound.

Even Dudley had to work hard, after all, the cost of materials was too huge.

But I don’t have to do this business, but it can’t be because of being reported. If I don’t give it, you can’t take it away. Write down this account first, and let’s take it slow. Anyway, there are still several years.

By the way, I would like to make a digression, because almost all the little wizards have changed into experimental equipment. This has led to Snape to speed up the teaching progress. He finished the first-year courses in a few minutes and has now begun to work on the second-year potions.

Lesson content.

It is conceivable that the class he leads will definitely be the class with the highest pass rate in the O.W.Ls exam for Potions.

Rolled up.

For Dudley and Snape, this wave is WINWIN, which means a win-win situation.

When Dudley was reselling experimental equipment, he actually had another project in mind

Still doing my old job, writing novels.

Compared to ordinary people, wizards have very few entertainment activities. Basically, except for a small number of pitiful chess games (such as wizard chess), there is also Quidditch.

Otherwise, I can only read newspapers and books, which is very boring.

There are no radio channels, no TV shows or even video games, which is why Quidditch is so popular because that's all you can watch.

Dudley planned to start from here. As we all know, entertainment-related things are the most profitable.

The first step is to integrate into the circle of wizards and make a name for yourself.

Novels are the easiest.

As far as Dudley knows, there is a wizard named Lockhart in the wizarding world. He is a well-known novelist in the wizarding world. How famous is he? Almost all adult witches in the wizarding world are his fans, and he himself is even more famous.

He is the holder of the Order of Merlin, Third Class.

Although this medal can be obtained through many special ways, such as donating a large sum of galleons to the Ministry of Magic, it is generally quite rare. Newt Scamander, a well-known magical zoologist in the wizarding world, won the award for his work in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

"", and won the Order of Merlin Level 2 Medal.

This time, he has tentatively decided to write the novel "Dragonlance Chronicles" and has already taken the time to write part of it.

All that's left is to find a suitable wizarding publisher.

Let this group of wizards feel the shock of the DND worldview.

Since Dudley was planning to stop, the others naturally wouldn't say anything. After all, he got the things and came up with the ideas. Ron and Malfoy were just doing some publicity and sales.

Malfoy himself is not short of money, but Ron is short of money, but he is an open-minded person and an easily satisfied person. The money in his pocket is enough for him to 'squander' for a long time.

Only Harry was still sitting in the chair and kept muttering, saying that he must find the 'villain' who reported Dudley.
