Chapter 141 He Gives Too Much!
Using the teeth of a piggie as a dragon's teeth, using the feathers of a witch bird as a thunderbird feather, or using a fox's egg as a bird snake egg... are all bad behaviors that are not uncommon in this industry.
Many shop owners are very good at slaughtering customers who don't know how to do it.
Fortunately, Rove has rich experience, and with his help, he helped Mr. Granger buy a lot of teeth for magical creatures, and there was no problem of shoddy or fake ones.
Mr. Granger bought these teeth because he was going to take them back for research... This is probably an occupational disease of dentists.
Of course, Rove's experience is limited to the field of magical creatures, and magic items are not his specialty.
What Gryffindor swords, Ravenclaw crowns, Slytherin rings, Hufflepuff gold cups... In a small stall, they can only be regarded as ordinary goods at best, chatting about it.
Have you seen Merlin's wand? King Arthur's sword in the stone want to touch it? Holy Grail buy one get one free, big quantity and cheap.
Not to mention the Jade Record of the Pharaoh of ancient Egypt, the bronze tripod of "Last Week", and the sculptures of ancient Greece made of stained marble... If you ask Rove if it is expensive, it is definitely not expensive, but if you ask him if he can buy it, of course not. purchase!
There are many products in Diagon Alley, just like Panjiayuan, there are good things, it just depends on whether you have a pair of discerning eyes.
Rove suddenly thought of Helena, and he could bring her with him next time he went shopping. As the daughter of Ravenclaw, she was a fool, but her appreciation of cultural relics was definitely not bad.
It's a pity not to bring it here as a treasure detector to pick up leaks.
Rove took the Grangers around Diagon Alley. He visited more times than Hermione, so he was familiar with which shops were interesting and which ones could be skipped.
Mrs. Granger seemed to enjoy chatting with Rove, from his family to his studies, to his future career plans after graduation, and which city he planned to live in.
Mr. Granger had a good chat with Rove at first, but since Hermione said that he and Rove were considered half of the same company, he suddenly became a little withdrawn and silent.
They also met Hagrid and Harry on the way, Rove waved his hand and said hello.
Seeing Harry with a disgraced face, as if he just got out of a coal mine, he couldn't help asking, "What's wrong, Harry?"
"Harry just went to Knockturn Alley! I just pulled him out of it!"
As Hagrid explained, he reached out and patted the dust off Harry, but he was so strong that he almost pushed Harry into a bucket of dragon dung outside a drugstore.
Knockturn Alley is adjacent to Diagon Alley, but its reputation is far less than that of Diagon Alley, because it is full of dragons and snakes, black magic shops and wizards wandering on the edge of crime.
"I didn't go to Knockturn Alley on purpose." Harry hurriedly explained:
"I stayed at the Weasleys' house during the summer vacation. When I was using Floo powder, I accidentally called the wrong name and appeared there."
"Fortunately, you just met me." Hagrid said with a serious face:
"Do you know how many wizards disappear in Knockturn Alley every year? It's full of dark wizards, and if you catch you, your kidney will be cut off..."
"Then what are you doing in Knockturn Alley?" Harry asked rhetorically.
"I'm looking for a medicine to drive away the carnivorous slugs, and the shops in Diagon Alley don't sell them!" Hagrid said gruffly:
"Those guys almost ruined all the cabbages in the school. You won't be able to eat cabbages in the new semester."
The slime of carnivorous slugs has a corrosive effect on plants, they move much faster than ordinary slugs, and they are resistant to fire... once they form a disaster, they are difficult to deal with.
"Rove, will you deal with these guys?" Hagrid looked at Rove.
"I can try to see if I can make insecticide." Rove said softly.
"Thank you very much. I originally wanted to ask Professor Snape for help, but I did it before, and he said he was busy, so I didn't go to him." Hagrid grinned.
Rove thought in his heart that Snape might not have helped before, but seeing Hagrid carrying a bag of herbs last school year... would definitely change his attitude.
After all, Hagrid gave too much!
But fortunately, Hagrid had a stereotype, otherwise the herbal medicine would have made Snape take it.
"Rove, are these your parents? Your father seems to look different from before." Hagrid looked at the Grangers.
"..."
"No, Hagrid, they are my parents." Hermione explained hastily.
"Oh, sorry." Hagrid scratched his hair embarrassingly, and he warmly invited: "Have you had a few drinks at the Leaky Cauldron? My treat!"
Mr. Granger was a little moved. Hagrid's body looked a lot like the legendary giant. He really wanted to see the difference between Hagrid's teeth and human beings.
But shopping with his daughter is obviously more important. Mr. Granger was about to decline, but Hermione said empathetically:
"You guys go, Rove and I will go shopping for a while, and then we will go find you."
"Well, then you two should be careful." Mrs. Granger whispered, "Don't go to Knockturn Alley."
"Don't worry!" Hermione patted her chest and assured, "I won't let Rove go to that kind of place casually."
"I'm talking to Rove!" Mrs. Granger rolled her daughter's eyes, looked at the boy, and said with a smile, "Rove, you're a good boy. Auntie knows it...don't let Hermione run away."
"I know, ma'am." Rove grinned, looking honest.
"Then let's go." Hagrid and the Grangers walked towards the Leaky Cauldron.
Hermione was furious immediately, she was obviously a good student who did not violate the school rules, why did mother think that Rove was a good student?
Just because he looks better than others? !
He got expelled from Hogwarts one day... You will know how bad he is!
Thinking of this, the aggrieved girl couldn't help but glared at the boy.
"Hermione, don't stare at me like that, be careful I'll report to your mother later." Rove suppressed a smile, purposely sternly said:
"You don't want your mother to know about your bullying me, do you?"
Hermione's cheeks were bulging, and she stomped her feet angrily, "Who is bullying whom!"
Harry watched the two arguing there, and he couldn't get in the conversation at all, as if he didn't exist. There was only one thought in his mind:
Who am I, where am I, what am I doing...
Fortunately, Rove still remembered Harry and didn't hurt Harry too much. He turned his head and asked:
"Harry, Hermione and I are going to Lihen Bookstore, where are you going?"
"I'm going to the Weasleys," said Harry.
"Then come with us, the Weasleys will definitely go to the bookstore too." Rove said softly.
Harry really wanted to refuse, he would rather go alone, he suddenly remembered something, lowered his voice and said excitedly:
"Rove, who do you think I just saw at Bokin Burke?"
Of course Rove knew who it was, he said calmly, "Malfoy."
"How do you know?" Harry asked in shock.
"I can't think of anyone else who can make you so excited except Draco Malfoy." Rove shrugged.
"..."
