Chapter 282: Bringing The Joy Of Drawing Cards To Everyone, Is Lao Deng Jealous?
If you want to do a good job, you have to understand how much purchasing power your target group actually has.
According to the data collected by Wayne over a long period of time, the young wizards at Hogwarts are generally relatively 'rich'.
Young wizards born as Muggles often have the least amount of pocket money, but they still have at least ten galleons of pocket money.
Just like Hermione, she only had so many in her first year because of exchange restrictions and the need to buy necessities like wands and cauldrons.
By the third grade, apart from the textbooks she had purchased, Hermione had a total of forty galleons in pocket money.
Mixed blood and pure blood are more complicated, and it all depends on the individual's family situation.
But it starts at least five galleons, and some have no upper limit.
After all, there are only a few people like Ronald. Apart from the Weiss family, Wayne really doesn't know any other family that has so many brothers and sisters.
To sum up, setting the average value at fifteen galleons as the young wizard's disposable pocket money is a relatively reasonable number.
It's not that Wayne doesn't want to keep the price of the game console down, but he can't do it.
Although the system has no emotions, it still has basic intelligence. The things it sells must be higher than the cost price to obtain points, otherwise it will be regarded as a gift.
Three galleons is already the cost price, there is no way to get it lower.
But it doesn't matter, the cards he sells are not valuable.
The average production cost of a card is less than three kats per card. Regardless of whether they are gold or white, they all have the same price, and he can make a fuss about it.
Therefore, he announced a series of preferential policies, including double the first charge, and free card packs worth 648 when purchasing a console (this does not overlap with the free console activity when purchasing ten packs).
After all, there are only two hosts in one.
The little wizards had never seen such a battle before. They were so beaten by this combination that they wanted to immediately pay for it and start drawing cards.
However, due to time issues, Professor McGonagall did not allow Wayne to continue speaking, and could only wait until tomorrow to purchase it.
Wayne will be waiting for you in the hall opposite the auditorium at six o'clock tomorrow morning.
Before disbanding, he asked the prefects of several other colleges to help take away the projection equipment and bring it back to their respective lounges.
Showing off is also one of the important motivations for spending money. Who has drawn a few powerful cards and doesn’t want to show them off in front of everyone?
Wayne must give the Kryptonians and European Emperors a chance to show off.
For example, if he draws gold in the underworld and doubles in ten consecutive golds, would anyone know if he didn't tell anyone?
The next day, many little wizards didn't sleep much that night, and the anticipation and anxiety in their hearts surged like heat waves.
In this world where technology is not yet too advanced and the Wizarding World 587 is very boring, the game that Wayne brought out undoubtedly hit the G-spot of many people.
It was slightly bright, and as soon as the school allowed students to leave the lounge, many people got up from the bed in unison.
The same goes for Harry.
Not only him, but also the five people in the dormitory got up.
"Ronald, do you want to buy it too?" Harry looked at his friend who had changed clothes in surprise.
"What if you don't buy it?" Ronald sighed, "I can't play with you."
Of course Wayne would not make such a stupid mistake. As long as all the after-sales consoles are activated by magic, they will be 'locked' and no one can use them except himself.
"Do you have enough money? Do you want me to lend you some?" Harry knew Ronald's situation and asked cautiously, for fear of poking his sensitive heart.
Ronald shook his head: "No, I can't get the money."
"Do you want to know where I got so much money?"
Harry nodded, he was really curious, could it be that Mrs. Weasley gave a lot of pocket money?
Facing his doubts, Ronald smiled sadly: I earned all the money by selling myself. "
"I've tried every new thing George and Fred invented, no, some more than once."
Harry opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
In the end, I could only pat Ronald on the shoulder and walked out of the dormitory together.
There were already a lot of people in the lounge, both boys and girls, but there were more boys. Near six o'clock, a group of people walked out of the portrait and went down the tower.
By the time Harry and the others arrived on the first floor, there was already a queue outside.
Slytherin and Hufflepuff arrived earlier than them due to their distance advantage.
In the hall, Wayne took Cedric and set up a table, with several stacks of metal plates piled behind him.
Next to them, there is a machine similar to a Muggle vending machine, which is full of card packs at various price points.
As long as students put money into the machine, the card package will automatically spit out.
It seems more fair for Wayne to use a machine to sell, at least
It is also very simple to enter the card information into the machine. There is a socket on the back of the game console. Insert the card and the information will be displayed on the front screen.
Malfoy was one of the first people to arrive, and soon he got his card and card package.
After inputting his own magic power to activate the host, Master Malfoy couldn't wait to start drawing cards for the first time in his life.
From the outside, all cards are the same, and only by inserting the card into the host can you see (dbbb) the specific information on the screen.
After taking out the card, the covering on it will disappear, containing various patterns.
The little wizard can choose to collect them, or sell them to Wayne for recycling, all of which are worth one Nat.
As for after recycling...
As long as you soak it in the special potion for a day, it can be turned into a new card and continue to be sold.
With tension and anticipation, Malfoy put the first card in, and soon a chubby woman floating on the card appeared on the screen.
Expansion spell.
Malfoy pouted and took out the card.
I originally wanted to throw it away, but after thinking that it was the first card I drew, I hesitated for a long time and put it in my pocket.
Then he sped up.
He bought a total of ten orders of 648, plus this pack as a gift [must have been drawn nearly 500 times.
It doesn't matter what other cards he has, but at least you have to draw out your partner card, right?
Otherwise, when he fights with others in the future, he will be beaten with Malfoy by his opponent. It will be embarrassing to tell him.
Disarming spell, civet, want to break through
Finally, on the seventh picture, the screen glowed with purple light.
The two big heads of Crabbe and Goyle quickly came over, the light dissipated, and a strange clock appeared on the screen.
"Time turner?" Malfoy frowned, he didn't even know what it was.
After reading the introduction, I was full of surprise, "Is there such a magical thing in the magic world?"
Don't think that the little wizard from a pure-blood family knows everything. The Time Turner is a confidential item of the Department of Mysteries. It is rarely seen and rarely mentioned.
This was also the first time Malfoy knew that there was a prop that could control time.
"Go back and ask dad to get me one to play with." He put the card into his pocket nonchalantly. Suddenly, a surprised voice came from the side:
"I got the gold card!"
All of a sudden, everyone, whether they were drawing cards or in person, came over.
Blaise Zabini shook the console proudly: "Did you see that the Golden Snitch can not only add magic power, but also provide mobile cards?"
"What pack are you on?" someone asked curiously.
"Needless to say?" Zabini raised his chin high: "The first pack was opened. It seems it's not as difficult as Lawrence said.
The envious and jealous looks from the crowd made him almost laugh out loud.
He enjoys this feeling of being in the spotlight the most.
"Hey, what's the big deal?" Malfoy's expression became very bad, and he continued to run to the corner to draw cards. This time the speed became much faster. He didn't even look at ordinary cards [just waiting for the golden card to appear.
Finally, on the thirty-fifth shot, a golden light exploded, and Malfoy's excited breathing became heavy.
It was as if this light penetrated his heart.
result……
"Pote?!"
"Are these fragments?"
Looking at the words Harry Potter (1/5) on the screen, Malfoy almost fainted.
Fragments, or broken pieces!
Malfoy opened the second pack of cards ferociously.
Another broken! Another fragment!
The third package... it's still Potter, this time it's not in pieces, it's actually complete.
Malfoy was drawing cards like crazy. He didn't believe this evil anymore. If he had the ability, the eleven packs would all be Potters. If they were all...
Then he will buy ten more packs!
On the other side, people were also crowding around Harry in the auditorium. Harry also purchased ten orders of six, four, and eight like Malfoy.
Everyone wants to see what cards the wealthy Harry can draw.
"By the way, Wayne didn't actually produce our partner cards, but made us auxiliary cards," George said from the side.
"The auxiliary cards are also very strong, okay? Didn't you see it yesterday? With us, the partner card can be reused twice, and the cooldown is also reduced."
Auxiliary cards can add characteristics to the wizard. For example, Gemini's auxiliary card can reuse partner cards, and Cedric's auxiliary card can randomly summon an additional plant card after casting a spell twice.
Soon, Harry got his first gold card...Puyue.
There was a look of disgust on his face.
It's actually Malfoy?
"You're out of luck." Neville patted his shoulder sympathetically.
Next, Harry drew four more Malfoy fragments and a complete Malfoy, which made his face look uglier than eating a slug.
When it came to the sixth or seventh gold card, a change finally occurred.
But after seeing the green light on the card, everyone gasped, and Ronald took two steps back in fear.
"Avatar... Kedavra." Harry said it softly.
He was no stranger to this spell...
His parents died under this spell. The first two times he met Voldemort, he also used this spell many times. After each use, his forehead would suffer severe pain.
Now just seeing the green light on the screen gave him phantom pain.
"Why did Wayne put the Unforgivable Curse into it?" Neville muttered uncomfortably.
"This will make it more real." Percy interjected: "I saw someone at the Ravenclaw at the next table had pulled out the Cruciatus Curse.
It was Neville's turn to turn pale.
Throughout the morning, it seemed as if all the students in the school were drawing cards.
Some people made a lot of money, while others lost everything. Many people gave away all their pocket money, but still did not get the boat card they wanted.
There are also people who just bought a 168 and got a complete gold card.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a gap between these people.
Ronald's luck was quite good. He bought three packs, plus one pack for free, and got a complete gold card.
He was also deeply impressed by this spell. In the first grade, Wayne used this spell to suffocate a troll to death, and he also got a new wand.
Just as Ronald was excitedly preparing to play a game with Harry, the time for class was already very close, so the two of them had to rush to the classroom.
In the History of Magic class, relying on Cuthbert Binns’ generosity
Song', the little wizards rarely slept, but were discussing what cards they had drawn and what decks they were going to match.
This makes it difficult for those who have not bought a game console to integrate into their circle.
"Wayne, will you issue new cards later?" Padma Patil, who was sitting next to him, asked softly.
"Of course, the later cards will become more and more interesting."
"Then..." The girl from the Ganges River blushed slightly: "Then will you make me a partner card?"
"It's not impossible." Wayne smiled: "Many cards are being designed, maybe you can give me some inspiration.
Padma immediately smiled as brightly as a flower. Justin next to her also heard the conversation between the two and said quickly:
"Don't forget about me. I also want to appear in the card and be drawn by others."
"And me and me." This is Erland McMenemy.
A large group of students were begging Wayne to turn them into cards.
Cuthbert Binns was just immersed in the world of lectures, and his hearing was bad, but he was not completely deaf. He finally couldn't help it:
"It's class time now, what are you talking to Lautaro!"
Wayne's mouth twitched and he changed his last name every time he was called by Cuthbert Binns.
In other classes, there was also some commotion.
Even if the playful students couldn't fight, they would secretly turn on the console, read the information on the spells and configure the deck.
If the professor discovers it, it depends on the class in which you committed the crime.
Professor Flitwick has the best temper. He just puts things away and returns them to the students after class. Professor McGonagall will confiscate them for a week and deduct points from the college.
Snape...forget it, no one is as brave as this bear-hearted leopard and dares to do tricks in Potions class. On the contrary, this is the safest place.
However, everyone still looked at Snape with a slightly strange look.
Wayne actually made Snape into an auxiliary card. I wonder if he knows about this. If he knew, would he be angry?
Snape himself wanted to get angry, but he was short on ambition.
For his own great ideal, he can only let Wayne manipulate him.
Finally, the two classes in the morning were over. Many people rushed to the auditorium as fast as possible. After eating, they found a corner and started playing against their friends.
Wayne came to the principal's office.
"Professor, can the school lend me a few rooms to put in projection equipment?" Wayne sat across from Lao Deng with a smile: "I think the students should also strengthen communication [time]
It's a good idea to have an open game every now and then. "
Competition leads to consumption. If he wants to make money, he has to make the noise as loud as possible.
But this requires Lao Deng’s approval.
"If it's a classroom or corridor that no one is using, of course." Old Deng also smiled: "Mr. Lawrence, why didn't you design my card [even Severus
The boy's mouth twitched.
Are you jealous?
He made an excuse at random: "Your card must be very powerful, I haven't designed it yet.
"Don't destroy the balance of this game." Dumbledore shook his head: "Normal intensity is fine."
"This is also the reason why I haven't produced it. I will think about it."
"I'm looking forward to it very much." Dumbledore looked at the boy with a smile, suddenly took out a game console, put it on the table, and said cheerfully:
"Would you like to have an exciting battle?"
Wayne was stunned. He didn't expect Lao Deng to come suddenly.
This game console was given to Dumbledore yesterday for him to study, and it didn't contain any cards.
Seeing his confusion, Dumbledore stroked his beard and explained, "I went to buy a few card packs while you were in class. I was pretty lucky and got two complete gold cards."
"Are you sure you want to fight me?" Wayne looked at him strangely.
Dumbledore acted very confident: "Don't underestimate me, an old man.
"I defeated Severus easily yesterday."
"Oh well."
A sinister smile appeared on the boy's lips.
Professor Dumbledore, I'm afraid you don't know what...GM account is!.
