After dinner, Ted visited the Weasley twins' secret base.
The two of them planned to make something interesting, and also planned to go to a relative's warehouse to see if there were any unwanted old things that they could help dispose of~
The two talked about a wealthy relative of the Weasley family, Aunt Muriel Prewett, their mother Molly's aunt.
Because Molly and Arthur eloped and got married, neither of them received support from their families.
As for the rich Aunt Muriel, she would come to the Weasleys every Christmas to spend Christmas (maybe because there was no one there anymore), and the relationship between the two parties was quite close.
Aunt Muriel inherited the inheritance of the Prewett family from the twenty-eight pure-blood holy tribes. Her family was very rich, with a priceless fairy crown and a huge house.
Molly was born into the Prewett family. Two of her brothers died, but she only inherited an old watch.
Aunt Muriel had no descendants, so the property would eventually go to Molly and her children.
George shrugged: "However, we may have lost the inheritance rights to the property."
Fred smiled and said: "Maybe it's because we put a fart bag under her cushion~"
"Hahahaha~" The two laughed heartily, not feeling depressed at all.
This Aunt Muriel actually doesn't like Mr. Weasley very much, because Arthur and Molly "eloped"~
Although she had to accept it later, she still disliked the twins who were too out-of-the-box and often lectured them. There is a reason why this old woman has always been single. She was too talkative, so she was retaliated by the twins...
At this time, the twins had already begun to research prank toys, but they only had ideas and no knowledge that could be put into practice. They were in the exploratory stage.
Ted gave a lot of advice, especially about the prank candies.
After half a holiday of brewing potions, he is already an expert in potions~
Ted: I made a decision that went against my ancestors~
"I still suggest that you study hard when you are in school. If you want to realize your ideas, it cannot be achieved by ordinary magic spells and potions~"
"For example, if you eat candy that makes your nose bleed, this may involve bleeding poison, a very profound magic potion."
Twins: "Merlin's bitter tea~"
Ted: Guys, you’re going to eat your brain if you prank~
…
In the afternoon, everyone was sunbathing and playing games on the nearby hillside.
Because of the potato spirit, Ted remembered the house elves and asked everyone for information about the house elves.
No one knew much. Ron and the others only knew that only those big families with a long history had house elves.
Although their family also has a long history, there is no ~
But Peggy knows a lot more. She is the top student in fifth grade and the prefect.
She smiled and said: "As far as I know, house elves are born because of a residence or house. The more luxurious and ancient the house, the more likely it is that house elves will be born. For example, there are more than a hundred house elves in Hogwarts. , almost catching up with half of the students. I have done almost all the work that can be done behind the scenes."
"Born because of the house?" Hermione's eyes widened in surprise.
Peggy held a piece of pastry and nodded: "Yes, I haven't heard about house elves getting married. They are probably not born naturally, but because of magic. Those ancient, magical houses... ...Maybe in a few decades, the Burrow will be able to give birth to its own house elf."
Ted said thoughtfully, "In other words, if there is no house to rely on, their magic power and life will gradually decline."
Peggy nodded hesitantly, "That should be the case. When they were born, they signed some kind of profound contract with the owner of the house. This contract can only be lifted if the owner gives them clothes."
These words shocked Hermione greatly, and she had a strong sense of ordinary people, and she didn't know how to deal with such an unnatural creature. And it’s still slavery? !
She looked at Ted blankly, hoping he could give her some advice.
Ted looked at her, knowing that his outlook on life had been impacted.
He said: "Hermione, actually you don't have to care about their origins. If they are well-intentioned, we will treat them well. If they are malicious, we will let them experience our magic. So, no matter how they are born Yes, it doesn’t matter, right? Just like pure blood and Muggle birth, it’s not worth mentioning at all.”
Hermione nodded, reluctantly shaking off her confusion.
When the sun sets in the west, everyone is about to say goodbye.
Neville and Harry went straight home through the fireplace, while Ted and the three of them returned to the Leaky Cauldron.
Jerry tried not to appear in the Muggle world because of his ears, so Ted went to see Hermione off.
It's not that far actually, because Mr. Granger's car is already waiting.
"Hermione, see you when school starts." Ted waved his hand.
Hermione also waved her hand: "Ask Anzu to send me a letter!"
Ansu: Can't you just let me take a break?
Mr. Granger also said goodbye to Ted: "Ted, come to our house as a guest next time!"
"Okay, Mr. Granger, I will do it next time~"
…
On the first day of August, when Ted opened his eyes, he was a real person~
"Ding~ The talent [Knowledge of Other Worlds (gold)] is triggered, and the [Manufacturing Item Expertise Book (green)] is discovered."
[Item Manufacturing Expertise Book (Green)] records the understanding and insights of a low-level old mage in Candlekeep on the item manufacturing expertise. It requires 320 experience to redeem.
"Yoha~" Ted's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Jerry, I'm going to the basement. You can go directly to Mr. Giggs' place after breakfast. You don't have to wait for me." Ted said and got dressed and went downstairs.
Jerry's round ears exposed outside the blanket twitched, indicating that he heard it, but he would stay in bed for a while.
In the basement, Ted directly redeemed the knowledge.
Ted stayed there for several minutes, then slowly sat down and began to sort out the knowledge he had gained.
Ted looked up with surprise: Don't tell me, it's quite useful!
The so-called manufactured items include a wide range of items, from potions to magic weapons, armor, magic items, wands, magic rings, and even spell scrolls!
In the DND world, spell casters are generally inseparable from spell scrolls.
This thing is very convenient. It can be prepared at ordinary times and can be used when triggered at critical moments. It can also be used by others!
Moreover, many spellcasters who meet the conditions can learn this spell through spell scrolls. So this thing is not cheap.
Masters usually make money by copying scrolls, and then spend the money they earn on buying high-grade scrolls.
Ted has seen too many strange magic items in the past month or so, many of which involve very high-end magic, and he has no idea how they work.
It would be so interesting if you could make these things yourself.
Speaking of which, these techniques for making items can all be included in the category of alchemy.
Through missions and [Pseudo Philosopher's Stone (Red)], I have pushed alchemy to lv1 (+1) in a daze, and I have not seriously learned alchemy yet.
Alchemy is not very popular in Great Britain, but it is more popular in France, Egypt, and Arab countries.
Ted decided to find a few books and study them first. By then he could be said to be self-taught!
Ted studied the newly acquired knowledge, and the more he studied it, the more interesting it became. It feels a bit like taking manual labor classes when I was a kid.
It's just that making magic items is "manufacturing" after all. It requires money, so it's not like magic. Study and save money.
Fortunately, Xianyuwang can bring a lot of cheap materials and materials, including ores, gems, crystals, metals, herbs, and everything in between.
Wizards always get their hands on some weird stuff that they don't need.
Throw it away, it's valuable, use it for yourself, you won't have any use for it.
I sell it to second-hand stores and they won't accept it, I don't know what they do.
Or maybe the function is too niche and the purchase price is extremely low, so you might as well throw it away to save yourself the anger.
Now that there is Xianyu.com, many wizards regard it as a place to exchange information, and even exchange information here.
Ted even had to set up two rows of stools and a few tables outside Mr. Giggs's pharmacy to give those watching the fun a place to sit.
I almost didn’t sell any melon seeds for tea.
There are no social occasions for these people in the magic world!
Suddenly such a lively place appeared, and I wanted to cheer and applaud to warm up the scene.
Nowadays, there are many idle wizards who bring their own stools, or temporarily conjure up stools through transfiguration, and sit on them all morning or all afternoon.
Ted even discovered that some wizards were selling goods, not even for money, but to join in the fun or tell stories.
Just like that ancient teahouse.
Ted: How about I just form a Deyun club and do a talk show? Let Ron do it~
The double monthly ticket event is about to end. If you have a ticket, don’t forget to vote. If you are late, you will lose half of it!
