Chapter 6 - Brand new Diagon Alley

Talking: "..."

Thinking: '...'

System: [.....]

-------------------------------------

"Is this the Perpetual Happiness?"

With the corners of his mouth rising wildly, Sean immediately opened the card.

[Echoes of Hermione Granger (Gold): For half an hour after using this card, for every five spells you cast, the next spell becomes a silent cast; for every twenty spells you cast, the next spell becomes wandless; for every forty spell cast, the next spell is boosted. (The reverberation effect can be overlapped)]

Sean looked at this card in amazement. If Dumbledore got this card, the effect of this card would be extremely limited for him, but to him who had not yet grown up, this card was simply an Artifact!

The only limitation is the number of spells, but compared to its powerful effect, this is not a flaw.

Satisfied, Sean chose to stop. Life is all about learning to quit when it's good.

The next day, when Sean led Alan to stand in front of Leaky Cauldron, Alan looked at the crowd of people on the street with a suitcase in hand.

"Damn it, I've passed by here so many times, how come I never noticed that there's a bar here."

"Actually, I haven't noticed either." Sean gently pushed open the door of the Leaky Cauldron.

Unexpectedly messy.

Allen took out his handkerchief, frowned and whispered, "I'm already starting to regret letting you learn magic, Sean."

"But it's also very interesting, isn't it, Dad."

As a well-known place in the wizarding world, the Leaky Cauldron is not a likable place.

Several old women were sitting in the corner drinking shots with small glasses, and one of them was smoking a long pipe. A little man in a top hat was chatting with the bartender who had almost stripped his hair and looked like a shriveled walnut.

When the conversation between the two came to an end, Sean walked over and nodded slightly to the bar owner: "Good day, sir, are you Mr. Tom?"

Tom glanced at him and showed a slightly grim smile: "Freshman? Hogwarts?"

"Yes, sir."

"follow me."

They followed the limping Tom through the bar, and they came to a small patio surrounded by four walls. Tom took out his wand: "Remember this brick sequence, you can enter by yourself when you have a wand."

After speaking, he tapped the brick surface three times.

Allen's exclaimed his shock, the brick shook and began to move, and a small hole gradually appeared. With the movement of the wall brick, the hole became larger and larger, and soon, a huge archway appeared in front of the father and son duo.

Walking out of the passage, there field of vision suddenly widened, and the sun shone on the back wall that had returned to its original state.

Completely different from what Sean has seen in the movies or imagined.

The solid and flat cobblestone streets, not only the alleys with a dozen shops, are bustling with people. Sean has noticed several ordinary people. They are obviously wearing normal but not gregarious clothes. a newborn child, is staring at the surroundings dizzyingly.

On both sides of the road are all kinds of wonderful magic shops, and you can't even see the edge at a glance.

"Welcome to Diagon Alley." Tom showed his scattered front teeth, trying to give him a friendly smile.

Sean didn't show any disgust. He smiled and said, "Thank you very much for your help, Mr. Tom."

After saying goodbye, the father and son looked at all parts of Diagon Alley in amazement. It was completely different from the narrow alley in Sean's impression, more like a commercial street with huge traffic.

Is this the new change brought about by the fact that Grindelwald did not fall?

Along the way, Sean and Alan couldn't wait to see more stuff, all of which were magical things they had never seen before.

Not only that, but Diagon Alley seems to have a much stronger atmosphere of business competition. He has seen three or four shops selling magical animals alone.

"Renting the vampire castle in Transylvania... The company is not responsible for passenger casualties?! Hell, won't this travel agency go out of business?" As the owner of a private hospital, Mr. Wallup's reaction to such terms was rather intense.

"Let's go, Dad, we have a lot to buy." Sean took his father and left the travel agency called Horror Tours.

"Yes, yes, let's see..." Allen looked into the distance. "That's, um, Gringotts, right? We need to go there to exchange money for wizards." He winked at his son, and calmly picked up the suitcase in his hand.

Of course Sean knew what was inside, gold and gems.

Mr. Wallup said "money is not enough".

The two walked to a towering snow-white building, and beside the shiny bronze gate stood a goblin in a scarlet uniform.

The goblin didn't seem to come up to greet them. Allen muttered, "The service awareness needs to be improved." The two passed through a silver door again and came to the hall of Gringotts.

At this moment, another goblin in a dress vest came up to greet him, his speech was fast and his voice was cold.

"A new Muggle family?"

"Yes, hello."

"Follow me." The goblin led the two of them through a door, where there were two rows of very high counters, and many customers in jackets and dresses were doing business. It looks like this place is dedicated to Muggle families.

Walking up to a goblin. Sean said, "Hello, I need to exchange some Galleons."

"Name, school." The goblin behind the counter didn't even lift his head.

"Sean Wallup, Hogwarts."

The goblin tilted his head and looked at the parchment beside his and continued.

"The list is confirmed... Five pounds can be exchanged for one gold Galleon, one Galleon can be exchanged for 17 Silver Sickles, and one Sickles can be exchanged for 29 Bronze Knuts. The exchange limit for first-year freshmen is 100 Galleons, and the annual limit is 60."

Mr. Wallup frowned. He glanced at the shop window just now. A book needs two Galleons. How can 100 Galleons be enough?

He cleared his throat: "Sir, can you only exchange so much?"

The goblin raised her head, with an ugly smile on his face.

"Sure, do you think Muggle currency is useful to us? Every Galleon, Sickle, even Knut, they have magic on them, what about the pound? In fact, these Galleons are Sponsored by Hogwarts for you."

"What about other things?" Alan put the suitcase on the counter, and there was a beautiful collision of gems.

The goblin raised his sharp ears and opened the box. In an instant, his ugly eyes widened, and his voice suddenly became enthusiastic and sharp.

"Of course, of course! We at Gringotts welcome all transactions with precious metals and gemstones!"
