Chapter 1321 Diagon Alley This Holiday

Despite the current tense situation, the Quidditch match is still the most talked about event at Hogwarts. Reading at midnight

It was a good thing Harry was able to be the captain. In Hermione's words, he could also use the prefects' bathroom and other things with them, but it was undeniable that there was a lot of pressure on his shoulders.

As captain, he has the responsibility to lead the team to victory and win the Quidditch Cup.

Gryffindor had been champions for many years in a row, and people were used to winning.

But the current situation is very different from previous years. This team is in the most difficult moment.

The performance of the Gryffindor team last semester was very average. In the end, they won the Quidditch Cup by counting small points.

Things get worse this term, with Angelina, Katie and Aaliyah graduating and changing suitors.

Except for Harry, the rest are all young players, inexperienced, and Ron's state is very unstable.

Not to mention, many outstanding Quidditch players have emerged from other colleges in the past two years.

"We need a plan and new player selection," he said. "Ron, Ginny, you two have to go back, and the Frobisher brothers and sisters also need to convince them both. As for the rest, I think……"

"Now is not the time to study these, since you have received them." Mrs. Weasley looked down at Ron's book list and sighed, "We can't delay any longer. We must hurry up and go to Diagon Alley. As long as you My father doesn’t work overtime, so we go on Saturdays. I wouldn’t go there without him.”

"Dumbledore said the Ministry of Magic would send someone to accompany us."

"Yeah, he agreed to let you go to Diagon Alley to show your face, I really don't think..."

"Mom, do you really think that the mysterious person is hiding behind a row of bookshelves in Lihen Bookstore?" Ron said.

"Fusco and Ollivander are on vacation, aren't they?" Mrs. Weasley immediately got angry and said, "If you think the security issue is a joke, you can stay at home and I'll go and replace it." You buy something!"

"No, I'm going, I also want to see Fred and George's shop!" Ron said quickly.

"Then raise your awareness quickly, young man, lest I think you are too immature to come with us!" said Mrs. Weasley angrily, grabbing her big clock and placing it on a pile of freshly washed towels The nine needles on the clock still pointed to mortal danger, "Remember, the same goes for going back to Hogwarts!"

Ron turned and stared at them in disbelief as his mother picked up the laundry basket and stormed out of the room, the big clock dangling on top of it.

"My God, you can't even joke around in this house!"

In the later days of the week, however, Ron became careful not to mention Voldemort again.

Mrs Weasley hadn't lost her temper until Saturday morning, but she seemed very nervous at breakfast.

Bill stayed home with Fleur, and he handed Harry a full purse across the table.

"Where's mine?" Ron asked immediately, eyes wide.

"It's all Harry's, you fool." Bill said, "Harry, I took it out of the vault for you. At present, the goblins have stepped up security and are heavily guarded. It takes about five dollars for ordinary people to withdraw money." Hours. Not too long ago, Archie Philpott stuck an honesty probe in his... well, believe it or not, like that..."

"Thank you, Bill," said Harry, pocketing the money.

"He's always so thoughtful," whispered Fleur affectionately, stroking Bill's nose.

Behind her, Ginny gagged at the bowl of cereal, and Ron sprayed it all over the place.

"Ivan, Hermione, what about the two of you? Do you need to exchange money?" Bill continued to ask, "The exchange rate is getting lower and lower now. Because of fear of war, many wizards want to exchange gold Galleons for Muggle money. If you two want to change, don't go to the goblin, I know a few people outside Gringotts, they can offer a higher price."

"Then I still..." Hermione said, her parents gave her the tuition fees in advance.

"No, the two of us have money. I asked Dobby to send me the latest income from the newspaper last week, which is enough for Hermione and me." Seeing what Hermione wanted to say, Ivan continued, "Don't worry. , Hermione, this is your reward for helping the newspaper, and it's all your own money."

"But..." Hermione still had some concerns, she didn't want to spend Ivan's money on this.

"This is the reward that was agreed at the beginning. You don't want to ask for it, do you? By the way, there is still a part of it that belongs to Ginny, and I haven't paid it to you all the time." He said, took out a money bag and handed it to Jin Ni.

Ron stared wide-eyed, watching Ginny count the money enviously.

Aiwen approached Hermione, "As for your money, keep it with me, don't you mind?"

Hermione shook her head, mind what? She puts almost everything in Aiwen's place now, not to mention the money, she goes to Aiwen's pockets to find her clothes every day, and her movements are becoming more and more proficient...

Due to the rapid expansion of the scale and the recruitment of many new employees, the recent expenses of the newspaper office are very large, and there is not much balance, but the money is more than enough for the purchases of Ivan, Hermione, and Ginny before the start of school. The largest part of the expense Nothing more than new textbooks and robes.

There is also a part of Colin's reward, and Ivan also asked Dobby the house elf to send it to him.

In fact, the materials he needs for magic research, ordering magic books and various materials are the real big ones.

These things are expensive and require a lot of Galleons to buy.

Aiwen has long-term purchase contracts with many merchants. In addition to the income of the newspaper office, he also needs to regularly sell his own potions and other alchemy products to make ends meet, and often cannot make ends meet.

So, he has been short of money.

Last time at Fairy Zuo Sai's place, Aiwen got a lot of priceless ancient relics. He wanted to exchange these things for Gold Galleons, but he couldn't find a suitable buyer...

After breakfast, at the urging of Mrs. Weasley, they set off early.

When everyone came out of the house wrapped in cloaks, a special Ministry car was waiting in the front yard.

"Fortunately, Dad can send us a car again." Ron said happily, stretching his limbs comfortably.

They got into the car one by one and sat in the spacious and comfortable back seat.

"Don't get used to it, it's just for Harry." Mr. Weasley said, turning his head. He sat in front with Mrs. Weasley and the driver of the Ministry of Magic. , but also to strengthen our security."

"I know that Harry is the savior of the wizarding world." Ron said jokingly, "Ivan is the star of hope, and I sit with two stars."

This joke made everyone laugh, and Harry smiled reluctantly. To be honest, he really didn't want to buy things when he was surrounded by a large number of Aurors... 8)
