Chapter 234 My Pokémon

The Leaky Cauldron, here comes Hermione.

When Ted saw Hermione, he was stunned for a moment, "Hermione, what are you doing?"

Hermione touched her face and smiled shyly: "We went on a trip..."

It turned out that Hermione and her family were traveling to France to enjoy the beaches in the midsummer.

Wow, you’re really tanned!
At this time, Neville also came out of the fireplace, and even had a piece of ash on his nose.

"Neville, Hermione, you are here! Come with me~"

Ted dragged the two of them into the basement, where the little puppy was rolling around on the floor using the slime as a ball.

Use your nose to push it out, then run quickly to the front to catch it, and then push it back.

You can sneak away by yourself, how smart you are!
The slime's little green eyes are about to turn into mosquito coils!
The kitten was clumsily chasing after its little brother...

With the addition of Brother Ji, An Su, and Bai Cai who occasionally came out to get some fresh air, the place was in chaos.

Ted explained, "I use the Clean and Refresh several times a day. You should take them away!"

The little puppy is black and white, with medium-long hair, and its ears stand up. It is very lively and has bright eyes.

This little thing is so smart that it can even read people's faces and try to please Boss Ansu. It's not as dumb as that little kitten.

Neville liked it at first sight and stood there grinning.

But the kitten is different. It actually stands on two legs, and its front paws have signs of five fingers instead of cat claws, so it is very flexible and can grasp things.

There is also a golden protrusion on the forehead that looks like a gold galleon.

Ted's original idea was to create a new creature like Felynx or Pokémon Meowth.

For this purpose, he even added two ocelot whiskers and a gold galleon to the spell material.
How should I put it, it seems to have been successful.

At least in appearance, kittens look more like magical animals than puppies.

Also, it is very greedy and likes shiny things.

Ted put a gold galleon in the bottle, and it would hold it and chew it for a whole day! It wanted to get into the bottle.

"This puppy is for Neville. You need to give it a name." Ted said.

"And as you can see, it hasn't been weaned yet, so you need to bring Katie back with you. The puppy will need milk for at least two weeks."

Katie is the puppy's mother, the crup.

Anyway, the Longbottom family's estate is big enough, perfect for raising a dog.

Otherwise, there would be no place to put Ted, and he would probably have to be given to Hagrid.

Ted looked at Hermione again, "You don't have to worry about getting another female cat. Because the kitten's mother doesn't like it... You can see that it looks a little different."

The mother cat was very bothered by the strange appearance of the kitten, so after feeding it for a week, she refused to feed it anymore.

Ted gave it to Mr. Giggs.

As for the kitten, Parker raised it for about a week.

It used its spiritual power to heat the goat milk in the bottle to feed the kitten, and only then did it raise it until it was weaned.

When Hermione heard Ted say that the kitten's mother didn't like it, she felt sympathetic.

But she didn't let Ted go: "So, what are you doing? Ted!"

Hermione was so smart that she naturally discovered clues from the different appearances of the kittens.

Ted whispered, "Don't worry, I will definitely tell you. We'll talk about it slowly later..."

I've also learned a new skill, I'll show it to you when I have the chance~
……

"Hey, this is an insect repellent that can effectively repel hairy crabs. It prevents them from parasitizing in the hair..."

Ted handed two bottles of potion to the two.

Ted only noticed this thing after he got cats and dogs.

Hairy crabs are very small parasites.

It resembles a crab in appearance, has long teeth, and is only one-twentieth of an inch long.

They are attracted to magic and can often be found in the fur of cruppies and the feathers of auguries.

They will destroy magical objects such as wands and cauldrons, gnawing at the cores of wands or feasting on potion residue in cauldrons. When not magically active, hairy crabs will destroy Muggle electrical appliances from the inside out.

This is why Muggle electrical appliances can suddenly malfunction - this is questionable!
Specialized potions available on the market can easily deal with hairy crab infestations, but when the infestation is severe, staff from the Pest Advisory Office of the Department for the Management and Control of Magical Creatures will still be needed to handle it.

Because those hairy crabs that have swelled up after eating magical substances are difficult to deal with.

Ted tried feeding a hairy crab, and it grew from one millimeter to the size of a fist!
Finally fed to the slime~
The good thing about slime is that it is not picky about food.

……

Neville took Katie and a puppy named Didi and they walked along the fireplace.

Hermione was going to take the car.

As Ted walked her off, he explained his experiment.

After all, she had seen how she transformed Chicken Brother in the Room of Requirement at school before.

She also knew about the birth of Stuart Little, but Hermione was still very worried and carefully advised Ted to be careful and learn from Professor Quirrell's warning.

Ted naturally agreed.

Qi Luo: I am so wronged! He is even worse than me!

Before getting on the bus, Ted handed her a small box of a strange, snow-white paste.

"What is this?" asked Hermione.

"This is pearl cream!" Ted said proudly.

This thing is still an accidental product.

While delivering medicine to Lupin, Ted ran into one of Lupin's clients, the owner of a pearl farm, who was investigating his wife's infidelity.

Ted bought a lot of cultured pearls from this route.

Pearls are also a very good material for casting spells.

Although only magical animal clams can produce magic pearls, ordinary pearls still have many uses, and the amount used is not small.

Given the stereotypes and isolation wizards have towards Muggles, they don't seem to know that pearls can be cultivated artificially.

So Ted became a middleman.

In addition, he also developed a new beauty potion - pearl cream - by using a large amount of inferior pearl powder.

This thing can whiten, remove scars and shrink pores.

Several ladies who tried it said it was good.

Under normal circumstances, the skin's metabolism cycle is 28 days, so significant results can be seen in one month.

After using it for a month, even Ron's face looks fair and tender!
As for why Ron could still use it even though it wasn't given to him, it was because he stole it from Ginny!

As a result, the pearl cream was consumed too quickly and Ron's skin changed so much that it could no longer be hidden.

Now Professor McGonagall, Aunt Molly, Mrs. Olivia, Peggy, Ginny... many ladies Ted knows are using this thing.

The reason why it was not sent to Hermione was mainly because her skin was naturally very good, very white, and had no freckles.

A true young beauty.

Now that I'm so tanned, it comes in handy.

"This product will be available in beauty salons next week. It's not cheap. The shareholders this time include the Longbottom family, the Black family, Mr. Giggs, and even shares from Hammer Castle and Decammond..."

Ted is now building his own network of contacts, using interests as a bond to bring everyone together.

……

In late August, Ted went to Xianyu.com to look for information, mainly to see if there was any news about the materials for hatching his eggs.

Still no news. There are still four materials missing and they have not been found yet.

This kind of thing can only be dealt with by chance, there is no other way.

In the Salty Fish House, many wizards were chatting and drinking.

In the past two days, wizards have been discussing a notice from the Ministry of Magic - "Guidelines on the Excessively High Prices of Dragon Products".

Well, most fire dragons are now farmed.

From dragon-skin gloves to dragon blood, from dragon scales to dragon fangs...it can be said that the fire dragon is a treasure all over, and has been almost fully developed by wizards.

Even dragon poop makes for great magical plant fertilizer!
Fire dragons are widely used in the magic world. They are indispensable and can be supplied in large quantities and stably among mid-to-high-end materials.

However, just three weeks ago, prices for dragon products were rising rapidly.

Up to now, on average, the price of a dragon has probably increased four to five times!

And the growth is good and there is no sign of stopping.

Many wizard workshops have been affected. Now the price increase of products cannot keep up with the rising price of raw materials, and business is becoming more and more unprofitable.

Because of the big commotion, the Ministry of Magic had to speak out, which was the "Guidelines on the Excessively High Prices of Dragon Products" a few days ago.

However, the Ministry of Magic's guidance was in vain. It was useless just to talk about it, and the price was even rising.

In the past few days, the price of dragon products and the policies of the Ministry of Magic have been hot topics in Xianyu House, and there have been complaints everywhere.

Someone said: "Price increases are market rules and price cuts are illegal. What the hell is that!"

"Isn't the Ministry of Magic bullying honest wizards?"

"Honest wizards deserve to have their prices raised and be ripped off?!"

"Hey, don't tell me. I heard that the Ministry of Magic invited an expert who studied finance in the Muggle world. Although they apologized verbally, they refused to lower the price of dragon products."

Someone asked Ted, "What do you think is the root cause of the increasingly intense conflicts in the wizarding world?"

Ted rolled his eyes. "Isn't it just the conflict between everyone's increasing intelligence and officials' declining morality? Isn't the Ministry of Magic the biggest beneficiary of dragon products?"

"That's right! All dragon breeding farms are the property of the Ministry of Magic of various countries! They are really being both the referee and the athlete!" Everyone shared a common hatred for the enemy.

"But what can we do?"

I don't know who said, "The Ministry of Magic has used all means except price reduction, and I have provided all support except purchasing. So I'll just spend it. Can I die without dragon products?"
