Chapter 294: Andy Collins, the Millionaire in the Magic World
Chapter 294 The Ten Thousand Dollar Household in the Magical World——Andy Collins
"It seems like you two have a good relationship!"
Helen joked, and then warmly invited: "Miss Granger, come and play at home when you have time!"
"Mrs. Collins, you can call me Hermione." Hermione said nervously.
Andy raised his eyebrows and interjected: "Mom, I have invited Hermione. She will be a guest at our house in the last few days of the Christmas vacation."
"Really? Hermione, then I'll be waiting." Helen said looking at Hermione.
"Okay, it's getting late."
Andy took the opportunity to say: "Mom, don't let Hermione's father wait outside for too long."
"All right!"
Helen smiled and patted Andy on the shoulder, and then said to Hermione: "Hermione, let's go out together!"
Andy: "..."
In the next few minutes, Andy only felt extremely tortured.
I don’t know where Helen and Mr. Granger came from so much to talk about. A witch and a Muggle could actually have a lively conversation.
When the two finally ended their conversation, Andy and Hermione looked at each other, and both saw a hint of happiness in each other's eyes.
It's finally over!
After getting on the Knight Bus, Helen looked at Andy in surprise, "In recent months, your boy's fame has spread throughout Europe!"
"You mean that Patronus Charm?"
Andy said proudly: "It's just a little fame. It will probably be forgotten soon. It's nothing special."
"What about the basilisk?"
Helen's face looked a little unhappy, "Your grandfather has already told me. Andy, where did you get half a basilisk? Do you know how dangerous a creature like a basilisk is?"
"Well……"
Andy raised his hands in surrender, "I'm fine!"
"It's okay even if it's okay!" Helen said sharply.
"Mom, Andy didn't mean it. It was just an accident. He will definitely not take risks next time." Isabel held Helen's hand and said coquettishly.
Andy was stunned, why is this girl so good?
"Mom, don't talk so much in the car." Andy said quickly.
Helen snorted softly and glared at Andy fiercely.
After being quiet for a while, Andy poked Isabel and joked in a low voice: "Isabel, you have been very good recently!"
"Of course! I've always been good."
Isabel took Andy's arm, raised her little face, and asked with a cute face: "Andy, am I your good sister?"
"No!" Andy said righteously.
Isabel: "..."
Before the little girl opened her mouth, Andy guessed what she had in mind.
After selling the basilisk, Andy became rich overnight.
How many snacks are these?
Now you remember that I am your good brother? late!
"Want some snacks?" Andy asked calmly.
"Yeah!" The little girl nodded honestly.
"It's not impossible..."
Andy hammered his shoulders and said to himself: "Oh! After studying for several months, my shoulders are a little sore."
Isabel was very conscious, "I'll press it for you!"
Tsk tsk!
This is the charm of money!
In Godric's Hollow Square, the knight bus stopped with a 'squeak'.
After getting out of the car, seeing that Helen still had a straight face, Andy could only surrender and said: "The basilisk is really just an accident. I promise that I will never do anything dangerous again in the future."
Helen didn't even look at Andy. She waved to Isabel, "Isabel, let's go."
The little girl held Helen's hand, turned back and stuck out her tongue at Andy.
Andy spread his hands helplessly and could only follow behind the two of them.
…
"Haha, Andy -" Grandfather Norman Collins gave Andy a warm hug as soon as they met.
"Long time no see. Grandpa, how are you doing lately?" Andy asked.
"Health? Grandpa's health is fine!"
Norman turned sideways, "Come in quickly, it's cold outside."
After entering the house, the family sat in front of the fireplace, and grandmother Veronica Collins took some snacks and milk to share with Andy and Isabel.
Then...
It was a scene where the whole family scolded Andy together.
Even his grandfather Norman betrayed the camp and joined the crusade against Andy.
Fortunately, this little girl Isabel is quite loyal. For her little snacks, she can say a few kind words to Andy from time to time.
Andy also repeatedly promised that he would never take any risks in the future.
"That's right, Andy."
When the crusade meeting was over, Norman suddenly asked: "I haven't asked you before, but you have been staying at Hogwarts, where did you kill such a big basilisk?"
Helen glared at Andy, "Not to mention the basilisk, I haven't remembered it yet. You wrote a letter asking me to buy a rooster for you, just to deal with the basilisk, right?"
"Hmph! It was obviously planned in advance, why is it an accident?"
Andy raised his hands in surrender.
"Where did the basilisk come from?" Helen asked.
"Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets." Andy said matter-of-factly.
Norman patted his forehead and said, "Let me tell you, why did your kid come to me to ask about the secret room during the summer vacation? That's it."
Helen heard this and gave Andy a hard look.
Seeing this, Andy could only explain the whole matter truthfully.
From the beginning of finding clues, to confirming intelligence, and then how to prepare, and finally how to kill the basilisk... He told it all from beginning to end.
After understanding it clearly, Helen asked curiously: "Apart from the basilisk, are there other things in the secret room?"
"No!" Andy said.
The family must not know about the magic transformation. They will definitely not let Andy study such dangerous magic.
"By the way, this is for you."
Norman threw a key to Andy and explained: "I have saved the money from selling the basilisk in Gringotts for you, and opened a vault for you. You can go and see it yourself when you have time!"
"Thank you, Grandfather." Andy quickly put the key away.
This time he is really rich.
Isabel looked at Andy enviously, thinking: It would be great if she could kill a basilisk too.
But Andy's money is her money.
The little girl asked curiously: "Grandfather, how much did the basilisk sell for?"
"More than 50,000 Galleons?" Norman gave a rough estimate.
"So much?" Helen was surprised.
"So little?" Andy was a little dissatisfied.
Norman explained: "England can't consume so much, so a large part of it has to be exported abroad. In addition, we have to build connections... If we don't feed the Ministry of Magic, do you think they can turn a blind eye?"
Andy nodded in understanding.
Whether it is a transaction on the black market or smuggling to Europe, it requires the tacit approval of the Ministry of Magic.
Helen glanced at Andy's pocket with the key and said lightly: "Andy, what do you need so much money for as a child? Give the key to your mother to keep for you, and I will return it to you when you grow up."
