Money in the heavens

After Professor McGonagall finished speaking, she tapped the brick three times with her wand.

Suddenly, the brick began to shake, and a small hole appeared from it. The bustling neighborhood at the entrance was in sharp contrast to the dirty and narrow Leaky Cauldron.

"Wow, that's amazing!"

The Granger family was shocked for the first time today and they all exclaimed.

Professor McGonagall couldn't help but smile and said:

"Welcome to Diagon Alley!"

This sentence is full of ritual feeling.

However, Professor McGonagall quickly said seriously:

"You must know, never enter that alley, it is very dangerous!"

As he spoke, he pointed to a relatively dark alley on the other side. William could vaguely see some gloomy and vicious faces inside, and he knew that it was the legendary Knockturn Alley.

Looking at the figures inside, William couldn't help but secretly thought, there are so many dark wizards in Knockturn Alley! Then his eyes lit up, and he seemed to have thought of a good way to make money, but he still needed to be more cautious and prepared!

Professor McGonagall did not explain Knockturn Alley, but took Granger to Gringotts. This is the place where gold coins can be exchanged for Galleons, but for ordinary people, the upper limit is 100 Gold Galleons.

Hermione and William exchanged 200 gold galleons together.

After that, Professor McGonagall took the Granger family to Ollivander's Wand Shop.

Ollivander's store was small and shabby, with a lone wand placed on the faded purple cushions in the window. The gold sign on the door has peeled off, and it reads:

"Ollivander, has been making fine wands since 382 BC."

The shop was very small, with nothing else but a bench, and thousands of wands in narrow boxes almost reaching the ceiling.

While Hermione and William were watching curiously, an old man appeared out of nowhere. It was the owner of this store: Ollivander.

I saw him smiling and saying:

"Hello, Professor McGonagall, is this this year's new student?"

Professor McGonagall said with a rare smile:

"Hello, Ollivander, these two are this year's freshmen, William Granger and Hermione Granger!"

Ollivander smiled and said:

"Okay, then who among you will come first?"

Hermione said impatiently:

"I come first, I come first!"

Ollivander looked at the excited Hermione, smiled kindly, and then said:

"Okay, Miss Granger, which hand do you prefer?"

Hermione stretched out her right hand and placed it in front of Ollivander. Ollivander began to measure the length of the arm, the length of the forearm, the height, the circumference of the head, etc., then he muttered and took out a bag from the shelf at the back. He put a wand into Hermione's hand and said:

"Here, try this wand! It's ten inches, made of grape wood, and has a dragon heartstring. It's perfect for a clever little wizard. You know, it's the wand that chooses the wizard!"

Ollivander would say this to almost every little wizard. This is the philosophy of the Ollivander family in making wands.

William raised his eyebrows. He remembered that Hermione had this wand in the original book, but he didn't expect that Hermione's wand had found the one that suited him the most the first time.

I just don't know if this wand is still suitable for Hermione after taking the Reader's Potion.

A white light was seen on the tip of Hermione's wand, but it did not shoot out everywhere. It seemed that Hermione was able to control the wand in her hand well.

Ollivander also smiled and said:

"It seems that I made the right choice. Miss Granger is indeed the most suitable for this wand. Then, Mr. Granger, it's your turn!"

William stepped forward and stretched out his right hand. After measuring it, Ollivander drew another wand from the shelf at the back, put it into William's hand and said:

"Yew, unicorn feathers, 12 inches long, give it a try!"

William raised the wand in his hand. Sure enough, this wand could be controlled by William freely, as if he regarded himself as his master.

Ollivander immediately looked at Hermione and William in surprise. He didn't expect that today's two children would succeed directly with their first wand, which was rare.

William understood why in his heart. It was not that these wands were really suitable for him and Hermione, but because both of them were extraordinary people who had taken magic potions, and the spirituality in their bodies could better control their own magic power, and could better control their own magic power. of mastery wand.

It can be said that the two of them can achieve this level with almost all wands.

After understanding this, William had no intention of changing his wand. After all, doing so would be too conspicuous, so it was better to just keep silent!

Afterwards, the two paid 7 Galleons each and followed Professor McGonagall to buy other things.

Madam Malkin's robe store, medicine store, Flourish and Blotts Bookstore... Soon, Hermione and William had all their school equipment together. As for pets, Hermione and William had no idea yet.

Of course, part of the reason is that they don't have much gold Galleons left. Facing the unfamiliar magical world, they still plan to keep some gold Galleons for emergency purposes.

However, William also discovered his fortune at this time. He had picked up a lot of gold galleons and silver coins along the way in Diagon Alley, just to prevent his special fortune from being known by Professor McGonagall. I didn't use the money to buy anything.

After seeing off Professor McGonagall, the Grangers returned home with their two children.

After the trip to Diagon Alley, Hermione and William had a more intuitive understanding of the magic world and were looking forward to the next school.

The Grangers also felt that since their two children had such talents, they could not bury them, so they were very supportive.

Hermione held her newly bought textbook and started to read it, and began to learn the magic spells in the textbook by herself.

As a "reader", these first-grade knowledge is not a problem for her. I think one summer vacation is enough for Hermione to fully master the first-grade textbook knowledge.

William began to plan to accumulate faith and merit quickly.

In fact, William has been prepared for the past two years.

Now many casinos, banks, stock markets, etc. in London always spread the legend of the God of Wealth and Business. As long as you believe in Him and carve amulets with His symbols, you can get the protection of the gods and get a lot of money.

As for the amulet, William uses ritual magic to communicate the power of money from the heavens, which does have the effect of increasing wealth.

However, William did not personally promote any gods, nor did he sell amulets.

Instead, he used the extraordinary ability of his apprentice to open the door in the middle of the night, and quietly placed the amulets that had been made and wiped out his own aura next to some homeless people, gamblers, and bankrupt investors.

When these people made a lot of money with the help of the amulet fortune, they naturally attracted the attention of many people. People also knew about the amulet and the symbol of the god of wealth and business.

Therefore, many people began to quietly buy or make the same amulet in the hope of changing their luck and becoming richer.

Even William's adoptive father, Mr. Granger, was once given the same amulet by a patient, which made William a little amused.
