Mastering Thunder from Hogwarts

"William, long time no see." Anduin opened the shop door, and sitting behind the counter was none other than William, his friend from the Muggle welfare home.

"Haha, Boss Anduin, I haven't seen you for a few years and you are already taller than me." William was still the same as before. When he saw Anduin, he rubbed his hands and came forward.

"It seems that you are doing well now." Anduin saw that William was also in a suit and leather shoes, looking like a talented person, and smiled happily, "I haven't had time to thank you for coming to help."

"When you were called, you naturally came to report as soon as possible. We are where we are today because of your letters and guidance over the past few years. I don't dare to do any projects or buy stocks, as long as I listen to your advice."

William grinned.

"Well, we are all brothers who came from the same orphanage, so we naturally share the same blessings." Anduin also grinned slightly.

In fact, during the period when he entered Hogwarts, he had been in contact with these old friends in the Muggle world, and with his advice, these childhood friends also made a lot of money in the past two years. Of course, some of them

his shares.

"It seems that you have done everything I asked you to do. This store now belongs to us?" Anduin raised his head and looked around the inside of the store. In addition to the counter and a few shelves, there is currently nothing here

It's still empty and looks like it's still in a semi-decorated state.

"It belongs to you. I bought this place in your name. But is there anything special about this shop? I don't think the road near here is very lively. What do you plan to use it to sell?" William just said at the beginning of the year

Suddenly he received a letter from Anduin, asking him to help buy a designated store, but he had little idea of ​​what to do.

"Whatever consumes electricity is sold. It doesn't matter whether we make money here or not. As long as this place is open, it can help me." Anduin smiled slightly and did not give William a detailed explanation.

Then, under the leadership of William, he inspected the shop inside and out, especially the circuit equipment in the shop.

"In this way, next you help contact the construction team to install the main switch in the basement, and then issue me a high-voltage electricity installation certificate, and then purchase it according to the drawings I drew, and install several high-frequency rheostat. As for the inside of the store

Well, just put some products like lights and appliances casually. You don’t need to care about the business, as long as you continue to operate and use electricity normally." Anduin tilted his head and ordered William one by one.

"Understood." Although William didn't understand, he still nodded obediently. Those who came from the orphanage have always relied on Anduin's guidance to make money. If Anduin didn't say anything, they wouldn't say anything.

ask.

After explaining everything to William in detail, Anduin said goodbye to him and returned to Diagon Alley from the Leaky Cauldron at the corner of the street.

As soon as he entered his home in Diagon Alley, Anduin saw Hogg, who had returned earlier, struggling with the stairs.

Anduin's sudden appearance obviously startled Hogg. He was originally chewing on the stair column on the first floor, but he was frightened and ran forward, squeezing his dog's head directly into the stair railing.

in the gaps between.

Now his neck was stuck tightly by the railing, and he couldn't get out no matter what. He could only watch Anduin walking towards him step by step with a dark face.

"Sir, I, I didn't mean it." Hogg said with a flattering expression on his face as he looked at the figure getting closer.

But Anduin ignored him and just walked straight to the stairs.

This made Hogg even more panicked, and he quickly covered his head with his dog paws, "I'm sorry, sir, I was wrong..."

Hogg thought that Anduin was angry, so he could only tremble and beg for mercy. However, after a while, he didn't feel any movement, so he carefully opened the dog's paws and looked at Anduin.

Looking at it, Hogg realized that Anduin was nowhere to be seen. The other party ignored him and went straight down to the basement along the passage next to the stairs.

"Sir! Don't leave. What should I do if you leave? My head is still stuck. Help, help, sir!"

Listening to Hogg's howling sound above his head, Anduin curled his lips in disgust, then closed the door to the basement and rushed straight to his alchemy laboratory.

"Sooner or later, this guy Hogg will have to find an opportunity to deal with him, but now is not the time to worry about such trivial matters." Anduin muttered a few words, and then quickly came to the workbench.

He first took out a large piece of parchment and spread it out. On it was a street plan. If you are familiar with the wizarding world, you can quickly identify that this is actually the store distribution map of Diagon Alley, or

It is said that this includes Diagon Alley, the floor plan of this block.

Anduin took out a variety of drawing and measuring tools and continued to measure and map on the drawings. After a while, the plan was covered with several lines.

Then Anduin kept groping on the basement wall, measuring something, and then took out the charcoal and started drawing on a certain stone wall. After a while, he sketched out a door-shaped pattern.

"The location and depth have been confirmed by the magic locator. It's not a big problem. As long as the decoration of the store is completed, we can start the layout." Anduin nodded with satisfaction after confirming again and again.

The reason why he used his connections in the Muggle world to buy the shop outside Diagon Alley and tinkered with these things as soon as he returned home was because when he was at Hogwarts, he finally completed the design and preliminary testing of the magic lathe.

finished.

The newly developed magic lathe can use the Wild Thunder Talisman as its core to convert electrical energy into magic power. With magic power, the lathe can automatically process, enchant, and engrave alchemy props.

But another problem that needs to be solved after having a lathe is the source of electric energy. It is not impossible to install a diesel generator directly in the laboratory to generate electricity directly.

But Anduin has tested that the magic lathe has a huge demand for electrical energy. After all, it is reverse conversion, and there is some loss. It is too troublesome to just use a diesel generator to supply it. You have to constantly add fuel, and experiment at home.

Placing a generator in the room would not look good, would take up space, and would smell bad. He was not prepared to use it for a long time.

But there is no circuit connected in Diagon Alley, so if he doesn't want to generate electricity directly at home, he has only one option, and that is to steal electricity from the Muggle world.

There is plenty of electricity in the Muggle world, and it's no big deal for Anduin to use it a little bit, but in order not to be discovered by Muggles, he has to make some disguises, otherwise he will violate the confidentiality law.
