Chapter 139: The bottom line of a conscientious store
Chapter 139 The bottom line of a conscientious shop
Malfoy looked at Kyle angrily, as if he wanted to throw a spell at his face.
In fact, he did the same thing.
“Stand still with your legs and stop dead!”
Malfoy suddenly took action and took the lead in using the leg-locking spell on Kyle, hoping to hold him back in this way and buy him time to escape.
It wouldn't take long, as long as he could find other Slytherin students, Kyle wouldn't be able to do anything to him again.
As the light on the wand flashed, Malfoy turned and ran.
“Armor for protection!”
Kyle waved his wand calmly, and a transparent shield appeared in front of him, reflecting Malfoy's spell back.
The next second.
“plop…”
Malfoy, who was escaping, fell to the ground. His legs seemed to be locked by something, tightly together.
At this time, Crabbe and Goyle finally reacted.
Seeing Malfoy moaning on the ground, they rushed towards him, waving their fists without saying a word.
Fred and George stood up at the same time, but before they could make any move, they saw Kyle throwing a few licorice candies at them.
The brown candies kept twisting in mid-air, and in the blink of an eye they turned into several slender ropes, tying up Crabbe and Goyle.
“Stop!”
An angry shout came from not far away, and several Slytherin students were looking at them angrily.
The commotion here was so loud that it naturally attracted the attention of many people, including many Slytherin students.
“Kyle, how dare you bully our freshmen!”
They recognized Draco Malfoy lying on the ground and regarded him as one of their own.
That's Malfoy, of course it's Slytherin.
Walking at the front was a fourth-year student. After recognizing Malfoy's identity, he raised his wand without any explanation.
“The golden clock hangs upside down!”
“Armor for protection!”
The transparent shield appeared again. Unfortunately, the opponent was not a rookie like Malfoy and was not hit by the rebounded spell.
Kyle stopped a few people who wanted to come forward to help, and said with a serious face: "Although your sneak attack is shameless, I still accept your challenge."
His voice was very loud, and all the little wizards watching the fun around him heard it very clearly.
“Challenge us? Stop telling jokes.”
The leader of the Slytherin students sneered: "You just got lucky and saved a loser, and you just got a special contribution award to the school for free. Don't you really think you are very powerful?"
Those who dare to provoke us Slytherins will pay the price! "
With that said, he raised his wand again.
Kyle looked at him with admiration and silently gave a thumbs up.
How dare you call Connor a loser in front of so many people... This guy really doesn't take Snape seriously.
With this courage, it would be a pity not to go to Gryffindor.
Of course, despite admiration, Kyle couldn't just stand still and let him hit him.
After still using the Iron Armor Curse to block the opponent's attack, Kyle raised his hand and cast two magic spells.
“Weak!”
“The golden clock hangs upside down!”
The Slytherin wanted to imitate Kyle and use the Iron Armor Curse to block, but as soon as he raised his wand, he felt his feet go weak and he staggered involuntarily.
The Iron Armor Curse was interrupted before it could take shape, and Kyle's Golden Bell Curse hit him right in the face.
In just a moment, he was hung upside down on the roof of the car, and then, a sharp long needle suddenly stopped in front of his eyes.
"I advise you not to move around." Kyle said calmly: "Otherwise you will spend the first day of school in the school hospital."
Without Kyle's special instructions, the other party had already calmed down. He looked at the long needle in front of him and didn't even dare to take a breath.
Subsequently, Kyle walked up to Malfoy, who looked dull, and asked, "Can you talk properly now?"
"I'm not afraid of you." Although he was trembling all over, Malfoy still said with a stiff neck: "If you blackmail me, I will tell Professor Snape."
“I said it all, it’s just a normal claim.”
Kyle took out a stack of maps from behind and placed them on the ground.
There are ten sheets in total, all of which are made of gold-threaded parchment, and none of them is complete.
Kyle picked up one at random, pointed to the narrow opening on it, and said: "Because you suddenly smashed the door, my spell made a serious mistake, and all the newly made maps were destroyed. I ask you Compensation, that’s reasonable.”
“But they are not worth two hundred galleons!”
Malfoy said angrily: "It's just a few pieces of parchment. The two galleons I gave you before are enough to compensate you ten times."
“No, no, no, you see clearly.”
Kyle took the map in front of Malfoy's eyes and said seriously: "Look carefully, this parchment is already worth one galleon.
In addition, take a look at the top pattern, which is woven from unicorn hair, and the surrounding gemstones are from fire crabs.
Each of these high-quality maps is worth a lot of money, and charging you two hundred galleons is already considered the cost price. "
While Kyle was speaking, Cedric and the others behind him were all biting their lips with very serious expressions.
Malfoy was also stunned. He reached out and touched it, and found that the pattern was indeed unicorn fur.
He has a tapestry woven from unicorn tail feathers at home, which feels exactly like this one.
Kyle is right, this map is indeed valuable.
Malfoy's heart sank and he said hurriedly: "Well, you can use the repairing spell!
Just a simple spell and they'll be good as new. If you can't, I can..."
“Repairing spell? Are you kidding me?”
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Kyle.
“This is the most high-end product in our Hogwarts campus magic items shop. It is for sale. You actually asked me to use the repair spell?”
Malfoy was startled by Kyle's sudden outburst, and said in a squeaky voice: "Yes, is there any problem?"
Kyle asked seriously with a straight face: "Do you know what a high-end product is? That is, it cannot have any flaws, not even a slight bump, let alone such a long crack.
Furthermore, when we do business, the most important thing is integrity. We will never sell a damaged product to others, even if it has been repaired.
This is the bottom line of a conscientious store, and it is also responsible for all those who have purchased our products. "
…
Kyle said it confidently.
Malfoy sat there blankly. Somehow, he felt that Kyle's words were correct.
Even the surrounding Slytherins were stunned...
Gradually, the anger towards Kyle dissipated a lot in the eyes of some people, and they turned to look at Malfoy thoughtfully.
Malfoy, who had become the focus of the crowd, was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said, "Two hundred galleons, right?"
“That’s right.” Kyle nodded.
Malfoy wordlessly took a badge from his collar and handed it to Kyle along with his wallet.
“I only brought one hundred and fifty Galleons with me this time, and I will give you the rest in two days.
This commemorative Quidditch championship badge worth one hundred galleons is a mortgage. "
He didn't agree before just because he didn't want to be blackmailed. Now that the misunderstanding was resolved, he had nothing to say. Although two hundred galleons was a lot, to him it was just a matter of writing a letter home.
Kyle took what Malfoy handed him, but he only accepted the wallet. As for the badge, he just looked at it and returned it.
Fratsa Eagles...what a garbage team this is.
"No mortgage is required." Kyle said calmly: "I believe there will be no one in the Malfoy family who would ruin the family's honor."
"Of course!" Malfoy puffed up his chest, and his impression of Kyle suddenly improved a lot.
As expected of someone who won the special contribution award to the school in the first grade, he has a good vision.
