Chapter 104 It is impossible to find a bargain~
"In order to serve the vast majority of wizards and enable everyone to trade more conveniently without having to meet and bargain frequently, I have launched Xianyu.com to facilitate everyone!"
"Our mission is to make it easy to do business in the world!"
"You heard me right. The first three days are free for appraisal. I said no money. I'm not interested in gold galleons!"
"And you just need to tell me the second-hand items you want to sell, and I will write them on the trading board for you for free, so that interested sellers can see them and then trade. Eliminate the middleman who makes a profit from the price difference!"
"Of course, I suggest you bring the items here and I'll appraise them for you. Then you'll have a guarantee. Let the seller rest assured that we will pay for any problems! If we make a mistake, it means we're not good enough. We should be punished!"
Ted stood on a small stool, just like a southern MLM master, full of passion and enthusiasm, and from time to time he would add to the atmosphere:
"What do you think?"
"Where's the applause?"
"Understand the applause!"
He had unknowingly maximized the effect of the favor spell, and even his language was tinged with a hint of psychic power, making his words even more touching.
Soon, someone eagerly asked about the price. "How much is that waterproof and moisture-proof cape? Is it 80% new? Can I take a look?"
Ted's eyes lit up. Due to lack of manpower, he couldn't arrange any help. Fortunately, he had such a kind man!
"Don't worry, if there are any quality problems, we at Xianyu.com will compensate you 100%. A waterproof cloak, right? Come and see~" Ted took out a gray cloak and sprayed it with clear spring water, so that it didn't get wet at all.
"Since you are our first customer, I will give you a 20% discount. We will pay the seller for the cheaper part!"
"By the way, do you really need this waterproof cape? We don't recommend impulse buying of things you don't need."
Maybe it was Ted's face, maybe it was his smile, maybe it was his voice, or maybe it was the thoughtful advice, anyway, the customer felt very comfortable.
He nodded. "Because I have to go on a business trip to Bergen, Norway next month and stay there for at least two months. As you know, Bergen is also called the Rainy City, and these two months are the rainiest time. There will be only a few sunny days a month, and I can't stand more than a dozen waterproof spells a day. It would be much more convenient if I had this cloak."
"Ah, then you really need such a cloak, so that you don't get wet, or all your magic power is used to cast waterproof spells. Did you see the price? It says 2% off, so it's 16% off. Galleons Sickles, take it. I wish you a safe trip!"
After some persuasion, the customer happily bought the cloak and left happily.
When other people saw it, they were immediately excited and came up to ask questions. Some asked if I could sell what I had. Some asked if I had what I had. If I didn't have it, please keep an eye out for me. I can use it!
You see, this business opened up all of a sudden!
In the afternoon, Ted asked Ansu to send a letter to Jerry, asking him to come to Diagon Alley after he settled down at home, as he had a job to arrange for him!
……
The settlement where the Ministry of Magic settled the subhumans was in a place called Levenkel, on the border between England and Scotland.
It was a mountainous area, a village mostly populated by subhumans, located in a remote valley.
After all, subhumans have some special appearances, such as Jerry's ears and Guff's horns...so they are not suitable to live with Muggles.
When Levinkel was first established, the Ministry of Magic had very strict surveillance and even deployed a Muggle-Repelling Spell, fearing that sub-humans would come into contact with Muggles, thereby violating the Statute of Secrecy and revealing the existence of the magical world.
The definition of a Muggle in the Muggle Repelling Spell is clear - an ordinary person without magical powers.
Therefore, sub-humans, Muggle-transformed vampires, werewolves, and the like are not considered Muggles.
For example, Squibs are not considered Muggles and will not be affected by this magic.
Ansu is now very large, with a wingspan of 1.5 meters, already a behemoth. He flies very fast!
Starting from London, we travelled across half the country in three hours and arrived in Levenkre.
This was also its first time to come to this place, and it was shaking its head and looking around.
It didn't behave itself for a while until Jerry took the letter off its legs.
"Thank you, Ansu. You must be exhausted after flying here from London. Eat something!" Jerry handed over his treasured cookies.
Jerry opened Ted's letter, read what was inside, and became excited.
At this time, a female voice sounded outside the door: "Jerry, is someone coming?"
Jerry shouted from the door, "Mom, there's a letter from my friend, Ted, I told you!"
The door was pushed open and a woman in her thirties walked in. Like Jerry, she had a pair of big round furry ears on both sides of her head.
Although Jerry's mother is not very old, she always looks tired.
In the past few years, Yaren's situation was not good, and their family had no pillar, so life was indeed difficult.
This is also the reason why Jerry wants to work in Diagon Alley.
"Mom..." Jerry whispered, "I want to work in Diagon Alley. Ted said he found a job for me. I can live with him in the room of the Leaky Cauldron, and I can come back to see you one day off a week." Jerry's mother touched his big ears, looking reluctant: "But you just came back."
"I want to help you, Mom. I can already help!"
"Okay, okay. Jerry has grown up and become a wizard. Let's go in the evening. I will prepare things for you and we can go over using the fireplace in Uncle Pulley's shop..."
In the afternoon, An Sufei came back.
As soon as he got in through the window, he started complaining: "I'm so tired, I'm so tired! Ha ha ha ~"
"Well, thank you for your hard work!" Ted took out some beef jerky and gave it to him. "It's really far to Jerry's place!"
It’s also thanks to the fact that Ansu is a magical creature and his magic level is not low, otherwise it would be a question whether he could fly back and forth in a day.
An Su puffed out his chest and said, "It's not far, I just had a fight with an eagle on the way and I'm very tired! Haha~" As he said this, he combed his feathers and took out a long tail feather with beautiful colors.
Ted had a headache on his face: "Why are you like a bandit? Why do you fight wherever you go? We need harmony, not violence!"
Ansu pretended not to hear and jumped up and down on the table, "Jerry said he would come tonight, from the Fireplace to the Leaky Cauldron! Haha~"
It was around four in the afternoon when Ted was waiting by the fireplace in the bar.
There was a soft "bang" sound, and a green flame flashed in the fireplace. A small figure poked his head out and looked around.
"Hey! Jerry!" Ted closed the book in his hand and went to pull Jerry who appeared in the fireplace.
"Hi, Ted, how are you?!" Jerry looked happy, his wonderful working life was about to begin~
In the evening, Ted bought a lot of delicious food and took Jerry to the Muggle cheese shop and bought several kinds of cheese.
It was Jerry's first time coming into contact with Muggle society and he was shocked.
Wearing a wide-brimmed hat, he followed behind Ted with his eyes wide open, staring at everything around him, just like country Jerry going into the city in Tom and Jerry.
The next day, Ted took Jerry to Mr. Giggs' pharmacy. "This is my good friend Jerry. He's been busy lately, so it's a good opportunity for you to come and help."
Because the herbal business was particularly busy this year, Ted introduced Jerry to Mr. Giggs.
After all, he still has a lot of things to do and can't help in the store for a long time.
Just like Ted did in the beginning, Jerry had to start by learning how to process the simplest medicinal materials.
But his salary is much higher than Ted's time. After all, he is already a Hogwarts student and has a foundation in potions and herbs, unlike Ted who was a complete blank slate.
Ted's main task became processing high-level materials and brewing potions.
Ted can now brew some commonly used and popular potions on behalf of Mr. Giggs, and he can also gain dozens of experience points a day.
In addition, Jerry has another part-time job, which is the first receptionist of Xianyu.com.
When Ted is busy with other things, he is responsible for receiving customers who come to sell or appraise items, or come to Taobao.
Jerry was quite shocked by Ted's "salted fish net" that was the size of a table. What kind of operation was this? !
Ted has mobilized all his connections. Not only did he get Mr. Giggs's useless old things, but he also repaired and sold the junk in old Tom's basement.
Ted also wrote to the Weasley twins and Harry, asking them if there were any second-hand items at home that he could use to refresh their data.
Ted even had to look for some inexpensive and good-quality items in various second-hand stores, buy them, and then sell them on Xianyu.com.
Mainly for quantity.
In the early days of Antarctic Goose, didn’t Brother Ma pretend to be a girl and go online to chat with her to attract clients?
Besides, for a "high-tech enterprise" like Xianyu.com, it is basic operation to first create a lively PPT to attract some attention.
In just a few days, Ted identified five or six high-end items, and two of them were even rated as red quality by the system!
On the same level as the fake Philosopher's Stone he was wearing around his neck!
It's just that they were all family heirlooms, and they were only there for appraisal. The classic scene of finding a bargain didn't happen.
Ted earns experience points for identifying such high-end goods. Although it's not much, usually only about ten or eight points, it's not bad and his work is not in vain.
During this period, Ted also unexpectedly obtained two magical materials that he could use.
Thanks to the book friend "我才双之我" for the 500-point reward.
Thanks to the book friends "I put away my knife and plant flowers to see the world" and "No sugar, reward" for the 100-point reward.
Thank you
