Hogwarts: The frog cub brings back the Dragon Slayer Crystal at the beginning

After renting the store, Lorne spent an afternoon tidying up the place.

It's nothing more than placing some bottles and jars of materials, crucibles and various refined potions, and the rest is just waiting for customers to come to your door.

When opening a store in Diagon Alley, everyone has to report to the Ministry of Magic, but because the previous owner has already reported it, and he is only renting it for two months, there is no need to do it again, which saves a lot. thing.

After Lorne organized the things in the store, he thought about how to do business in the past two months.

There are not many potion shops in Diagon Alley, because when people buy potions, they usually go to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies. At least the things in the hospital are very good in terms of efficacy and quality.

The only things Lorne could use were some improved potions, which were not as bitter as the original ones and some advanced potions.

There are compound potions, demulcents, beauty potions, and even love potions.

These medicines are not something you can see in a serious store, let alone a hospital.

It is estimated that if the Auror comes to check, the potion shop in Lorne will be gone.

High risk and high interest rate!

If he could sell a few bottles of high-end magic potion, he would have recouped his two hundred dollars!

After finishing the work in the store, Lorne closed the store and prepared to rest.

The store has its own bedroom and bathroom, so he basically won't go back to the house where he has stayed for eleven years this holiday.

A sign with the name of the store was also hung at the entrance of the store using magic.

Akali's Potion Shop.

He probably only knows the meaning of this name.

————

Early next morning.

Lorne simply washed up and then put on a neat black printed robe, which he bought from Madam Malkin's Robe Shop yesterday.

According to the letter brought by the owl received last night, if nothing unexpected happens, Hermione will come to work with him tomorrow.

Well, work for him.

After all, he has now rented a nice store.

And Lorne will not treat the little Hermione badly. There are ten gold galleons every week, and there will be a 30% share for every potion sold.

You must know that the cheapest bone spirit here costs five gold galleons, let alone a compound potion that costs several hundred gold galleons.

However, he can't keep refining potions here for the past two months. Maybe he can learn other things.

Such as alchemy.

He has a lot of interest in magic props and the like, but he has never learned the need to carve magic inscriptions into them.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. After setting the goal, I have plenty of time to be busy in the past two months.

"Good morning, boss!"

Lorne walked into the Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore opposite.

He needed to buy some books about alchemy to study.

"Oh, are you the little wizard who opens the shop opposite?"

The bookstore owner Mr. Field's eyes lit up. There was a potion shop suddenly opened across the street last night. It was impossible for him not to know about it.

And according to what he and Mrs. Malkin observed, there was only one little wizard in the shop opposite.

My Merlin. , How old is he?

No more than fifth grade at most!

Mr. Field guessed.

Lorne is still very tall, and he has mature words and deeds, so he doesn't look like a little wizard who has just graduated from the first grade.

"If you are talking about the potion shop across the street, it is indeed opened by me."

Lorne chuckled politely.

If he has to live in Diagon Alley for two months, even if he lies, he will probably be found out in the end.

What's more, why lie?

A genius little potion wizard, that is A good character.

With a reputation, your store can attract customers well.

After chatting with this chatty bookstore owner for a while, Lorne has already prepared all the books he wants to buy.

《The use of symbols in ancient magic texts》，《The meaning and description of runes》，《Mr. Nick's alchemy explanation》……

This large pile of books cost a total of more than one hundred gold galleons, which was much cheaper than his store. The main reason was that Nick's book was priced at sixty gold galleons, and the others were around twenty.

The price is high, which means there is still a lot of useful stuff inside.

After all, Nick Mellor can be regarded as the originator of alchemy, and even refined the legendary elixir.

It’s a little more expensive, I understand.

"Are you going to learn alchemy and magic writing?"

Mr. Field took a look at these books and guessed it. You must know that alchemy is a craze no matter in which era.

Unfortunately, there are not many people who can learn it.

After all, alchemy requires technology and unique skills. talent

"A total of one hundred and thirty-seven gold galleons, and there is no need to pay the remaining silver coins."

Mr. Field packed it for Lorne kindly.

Lorne took the seven thick books and went to his store after paying the money.

…

"Lorne!"

In the Leaky Cauldron, Lorne had just ordered a glass of butterbeer when he heard a pleasant voice calling him.

When he turned around, he realized that the Grangers had brought Hermione over.

The two of them had questions about Hermione. The place of work is still very important, but when they heard that they were going to work in the store opened by Lorne, the Grangers were still surprised. At such a young age, he came to Diagon Alley to open a store?

How old is he!

Mr. Granger looked at Lorne in front of him in disbelief. He knew that Lorne and his daughter were in the same grade.

After being surprised, Mr. Granger found that he was looking at Lorne more and more. Talented, polite, good-looking and capable, it’s rare to find someone as outstanding as this!

"Want a drink? Mr. Granger."

Lorne handed over a full glass of butterbeer.

This thing is said to be beer but actually contains very little alcohol. It is more like a drink.

If you don't drink too much, you generally won't get drunk.

Except for the lack of alcohol. OK

"Thank you..."

Mr. Granger took the butterbeer and took a sip. His eyes lit up the moment he drank it.

This thing tastes quite delicious.

After telling Mr. Granger about the work in the store and the food and accommodation included,.

Mr. Granger smiled and agreed.

The salary is not low, including food and accommodation, and the working hours are short.

Where can you find such a good thing?

As for the relationship between the two people, Mr. Granger is very concerned about his own. My daughter is confident.

With Miss Hermione's intelligence, she will not be easily fooled.
