I'm in Hogwarts, what the hell is the Honghuang system?

Chapter 215: A thought blossoms, and the king reigns over the world! Liu Xian arrives!

Hearing Rhine's words, Florina felt so angry that her teeth were itching.

She really couldn't understand why Rhine could still be so calm and fearless even though she had already exposed the scam.

Is it because he felt that he would definitely not be willing to pay such a high price to borrow thirty ancient seeds?
Florina's expression returned to calm, and she looked at Rhine and Professor Sprout proudly.

"I see. You really think I can't get these seeds?"

"Okay, isn't it just thirty?"

"I don't believe you can really make the ancient seeds germinate, and I don't believe you can make the ancient seeds mature in such a short time."

Immediately, she looked at the herbal masters present and asked to borrow from them.

The masters were in a very difficult situation at this time.

On the one hand, lending the seeds was tantamount to helping Florina in their eyes, which would definitely offend Professor Sprout.

But on the other hand, given Florina's personality, she would definitely hold a grudge if the seeds were not lent to her.

It's really difficult to be caught in the middle.

But the next moment, Rhine saw that they were still slow to lend out the seeds and urged them repeatedly.

"Masters, if you have any, please borrow them quickly."

“Just don’t forget to raise the price!”

"If you have any ancient seeds you don't need, you can exchange them with her for something useful. She will agree to anything you ask for."

"If you know any friends or family members who want to make some money, please seize the opportunity."

"The seeds will belong to me then, and you'll get what you want. It's a win-win for both of us!"

The atmosphere at the scene was weird.

The masters looked at each other.

No, this...

If Florina collected all the seeds, Rhine would have no reason to refuse, and he would be the one in trouble.

Why was he still yelling at Florina?
Florina's face turned blue with anger, and she believed that Rhine just felt that she was unwilling to pay such a price.

She gritted her teeth and quoted her own price.

In addition to gold galleons, there are also various precious herbal books and her own knowledge, which can be exchanged.

The masters present at the scene showed excitement on their faces.

As masters of herbal medicine, they certainly have more or less collections of seeds of ancient plants.

But if these seeds cannot be grown, they will at most be a collection for viewing.

But the conditions offered by Fulina were very generous. Normally, an ancient plant seed could not be exchanged for so many things.

Florina even promised that if the ancient seeds were really exported, she would have to give them compensation.

So, how can we say that we are not losing money? We are even making a huge profit?!

So gradually, some masters really took out their collections.

The number of ancient seeds in Florina's hands increased, and after a while, there were as many as fifteen or sixteen, which was more than half of the thirty seeds.

She looked at Rhine, but did not see the panic on his face.

Florina snorted coldly.

"Continue to install."

"I wonder how long you can keep calm."

Then she took out the letter paper and quill pen, wrote several more letters and sent them out.

Not long after, goblins in Gringotts uniforms arrived at Hogwarts with respectful looks on their faces.

"Master Florina, are you asking to mortgage us?"

Florina nodded.

"Yes."

"Use my assets at Gringotts as collateral. Let Gringotts name the price. Go buy the ancient plant seeds for me. The sooner the better."

"I want fifteen!"

There was a look of joy in the goblin's eyes.

Gringotts doesn't know anything about herbology, but when it comes to valuation, no one in the wizarding world can surpass them.

No matter how bizarre the stuff was, Gringotts could always estimate its value.

The fairy only needed to do some mental calculations to realize that this was definitely a big business and that this year's performance might be achieved.

But after a moment, it rubbed its slender fingers together and grinned.

"Master Florina, if you want to mortgage this, your current assets in Gringotts are not enough."

Florina frowned, a look of annoyance on her face.

"not enough?"

The Gringotts goblin nodded.

Before it could open its mouth to offer advice to Florina, an excited voice rang out.

"How can it not be enough?"

"Use the lever!"

"Surely Gringotts has some kind of agreement?"

"Quick, pull the lever all the way!"

"Study!"

The fairy stood there in a daze, looking at Rhine who excitedly asked to put leverage on Florina, and was a little confused for a moment.

No, what's going on?
Shouldn't this be his own line?
But after a moment, the fairy rubbed his hands and gave Florina a seemingly harmless smile.

"Yes, Master, we at Gringotts can provide leverage services."

"Since you are a distinguished guest, our agreement is the best..."

Rhine looked at Florina with a provocative look.

"Use the lever, you're not afraid, are you?"

Fulina's face turned ashen with anger and she said hatefully.

"A crude trick cannot hide the terror in your heart."

She looked at the fairy, took a deep breath, and said expressionlessly.

"To Gringotts."

Then, Florina followed the fairy and left with a loud bang of Apparition.

In Gringotts, Florina's angry expression turned calm.

The goblin asked tentatively.

"Master, would you like to sign the agreement?"

Florina said lightly.

"sign."

"But besides purchasing ancient plant seeds, you Gringotts have to do one more thing for me."

"Clear all the stock from the several suppliers of Moon Marrow Herb on the market. There are also several key ingredients for the Bordeaux Potion. I'll make a list for you, and clear them all out."

The fairy was stunned for a moment, then smiled even more brightly.

"No problem, Master Florina, but it will cost more."

"I'm afraid the lever needs to be pulled a little higher."

Florina took a deep breath.

"Then come on."

There was a cold look in her eyes.

If the cultivation of ancient plants is truly confirmed to be successful, it will be an achievement that will shock the herbal medicine community and go down in history.

Professor Sprout is not the only one working on this topic. Many herbalists are also trying it.

Florina never announced it to the outside world, but she got a part of an extremely mysterious ancient plant from her teacher, and it was a living organism that retained its vitality and was in her castle.

In her opinion, this is the only ancient plant that can be successfully cultivated in the current magical world.

Over the years, she has been very close to success. Once she succeeds, one can imagine how huge the fame and wealth that will follow will be.

Because of this, Florina could not accept the fact that Professor Sprout got there first.

If this story is false, she wants Professor Sprout to be ruined.

If this is true, she must find a way to disprove it!

This magical world will only remember the first person who achieves great things. She has already lost to Sprout once and doesn't want to lose again!

Even if you bet everything you have, what does it matter compared to the huge benefits you can get in return?
"Moon Marrow Grass, as well as several other materials that are universally recognized as essential for cultivating ancient plants, are already scarce, and require significant quantities to be effective."

"I had Gringotts clear out the goods. Even if Sprout and Rhine Snow truly have the ability to cultivate ancient seeds, without sufficient materials, they can't prove it in a few days."

"Once I publish my findings and have my teacher's endorsement, I will be the first herbalist in the magical world to successfully cultivate an ancient plant."

"My name will be the only one that will be passed down through the ages!"

Florina clenched her fists.

This time, she is sure to win!
……

At the same time, in Hogwarts Castle.

Sprout looked at where Florina had left, then turned to look at Rhine with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Rhine, I know that bitch Florina too well. She hasn't changed at all over the years. She's still willing to do anything to succeed."

"This time, she seems determined to throw this dirty water on us."

"She can use any means, that's just the kind of person she is."

Rhine smiled slightly at this.

With his current strong luck, it can be said that he is destined to be with him. Whenever Voldemort meets him, he will be beaten up without any surprise.

Florina? Who is she?

If it weren't for the desire to get more ancient seeds at once, she would have said a few more words. Otherwise, Rhine would have made her speechless forever.

As for those little tricks played by Florina, she thought they were very covert, but in fact, in front of Rhine Tianji's talent, they had nowhere to hide.

Acquire the materials necessary for cultivating ancient seeds?
If it were someone else, even Professor Sprout, they might really be tricked if they were caught off guard.

But why would it be so troublesome for Rhine to cultivate ancient seeds?
With a flick of Yi Mu's divine light, everything will be settled!
At this moment, Rhine looked at the herbal masters present.

The masters' expressions were somewhat unnatural.

After all, they just lent the seeds to Florina, which was indirectly helping Florina and leaving Rhine and Professor Sprout no room for maneuver.

But to their surprise, Rhine spoke with a smile.

"Masters, don't feel guilty. We are all taking what we need. No one owes anyone anything."

"But now, I have news. Keeping it will allow you to make a lot of money from Florina."

"Are you interested?"

The masters were stunned for a moment.

After a moment, they looked at Rhine with half curiosity and half confusion.

"what news?"

Rhine grinned.

"Do you have Moon Marrow Grass and the ingredients needed to make the Bordeaux Potion?"

"Or is there any way to get these from outside the UK?"

The Masters blinked.

"Moon Marrow Grass, Bordeaux Potion..."

"These are the necessary materials mentioned in all the literature on cultivating ancient seeds. Each ancient seed requires a large amount of these materials to have any hope of germination."

They seemed to understand.

"Rhine, do you want these?"

"That's easy. Although these materials are rare, we can still get them."

But the next second, Rhine shook his head and said with a weird smile.

"No, no, no, Moon Marrow Grass and Bordeaux Potion. Who would cultivate ancient seeds and need these things?"

"Such a simple and convenient thing, but why is it so troublesome?"

The Masters paused and blinked.

what?
Don't you need Moonwort and Bordeaux potion?
But since hundreds of years ago, these have been required in papers on the cultivation of ancient seeds, without exception.

Also, how come this most difficult topic in the field of herbal medicine sounds so light and airy in Rhine's mouth, just like what to eat for dinner today?

"Then why are you asking us this?"

Rhine smiled slightly.

"Because Florina is buying up these materials at high prices."

"If you have a source of goods now, you can make a lot of money from her."

"At this time, she will accept any price."

Several masters looked at each other, wondering how Rhine knew that Florina was purchasing these materials.

They wrote a few letters and soon, the replies arrived at Hogwarts.

There was surprise in the masters' eyes.

Are magic potions like Moon Marrow Grass on the market really starting to be purchased in large quantities?
The price is soaring!
At this moment, they looked at Rhine with a bit of horror.

They had never expected that Florina would play such a trick after leaving Hogwarts.

But this action was actually stated by Rhine so confidently.

Is it prophecy?
Or is it that every move of Florina was actually calculated by Rhine?
No matter which one it is, this little wizard seems a little scary!
The masters no longer dared to treat Rhine as a first-year wizard, and they finally understood why Professor Sprout had such an almost blind trust in Rhine.

They looked at each other and considered for a moment.

"Rhine, this news can really make us a lot of money."

"As for the ancient seeds from before, we also made a lot of money. We can't take this from you for free."

"How about I give you a share?"

"Oh, yes. I bought a shop in Diagon Alley decades ago. It's been empty all these years, and I have no interest in taking care of it. How about I give it to you?"

"However, regarding the specific implementation of harvesting Florina, I still need your advice, Rhine."

Rhine grinned.

When it comes to finance, he definitely can't beat the Gringotts goblins who help Florina operate it. This is the racial talent of the goblins.

However, the devil is always one step ahead of you.

When playing leveraged futures, God's talent is the key to success!

……

Soon, Florina, who was staying in Gringotts, looked at the goblin with a frown.

"Not okay yet?"

"Given your Gringotts' efficiency, this shouldn't happen."

The goblins of Gringotts were concentrating on their calculations, and chatted with Florina in a disjointed manner.

"The acquisition of ancient seeds is in progress. As you know, these kinds of things are very precious. Although some pure-blood families also have collections, they are only for show."

"It's not easy to acquire more than a dozen in such a short period of time." "But this isn't a big problem. It's another matter, which is the acquisition of Moon Marrow Grass and Bordeaux potion ingredients. It seems someone has already heard about it."

"Some people are still buying them, and the prices of these materials are getting higher and higher."

"Master Florina, I'm afraid you should be prepared that the cost of acquiring these materials may be higher than expected."

Florina gritted her teeth.

Once the leverage is increased and all these materials are swept away, Sprout and Rhine will be disproven, then he must be the first master to cultivate ancient plants.

All the investment is worth it.

"Keep levering!"

The Gringotts goblin smiled happily.

"okay!"

They were secretly delighted.

When they saw the market trends, they understood that someone must have noticed that Gringotts was purchasing these materials and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune from Gringotts.

Gringotts has encountered quite a few such incidents over the years.

But it has become less and less in recent years.

The reason is very simple, playing with Gringotts?
Do you have this ability?
Those who dared to take action basically lost everything, and many people's descendants had to work for Gringotts to repay a debt that was impossible to repay.

Therefore, in the eyes of the fairies, those who came in to buy things were simply there to give away gold Galleons!
With just a small operation, all of this huge amount of funds can be taken in. Gringotts makes money on both ends, which is really a huge profit!
Just one hour later, the fairy in charge of the operation became numb.

"no……"

"I lost money?"

"I actually lost money?!"

Its expression was no longer as calm as before; it was distorted and its cheeks were twitching.

For goblins, losing money is like cutting their flesh with a knife.

It hurts, it hurts too much!
And it couldn't understand why the funds that were also buying up stocks seemed to know all its thoughts?

It's like there are eyes watching me from the dark, hitting me hard in the vital points every time?

At the same time, in Hogwarts Castle, the masters received letters that came in like snowflakes, and their faces showed disbelief and ecstasy.

"Profit?"

"Holy crap! Is there really anyone who can make money from Gringotts!?"

Previously, they were skeptical and asked Rhine to help them with a small amount of funds to buy stocks.

I didn't expect that I actually made a lot of money. Did I get some benefits from Gringotts?

After all these years, this is the first time they have heard of someone being able to dig gold out of a goblin!
Talent!
The herbalists looked at Rhine with shining eyes.

"Ahem, Rhine, I also have a shop in Diagon Alley. I'm giving it to you. Can you help me operate it?"

"I have a small cottage in Hogsmeade. Will you help me fix it up too?"

Rhine welcomes everyone who comes.

Anyway, the capital is not mine, and the money earned comes from Gringotts and Florina. I can get money without doing anything. Who doesn’t want it for free?
Besides, a relationship based on money may not be the purest relationship, but to some extent, it may be the fastest way to bring people closer together.

Rhine's relationship with these masters of herbal medicine has skyrocketed.

The more you earn, the closer the relationships become.

When this sum of money had nearly doubled in Rhine's hands, he returned it to those herbal medicine masters, and some of them became close friends with Rhine on the spot!
You and the Medicine Dao Sanxian worked diligently to earn spirit stones, and every one of them was soaked with the blood and sweat of your joint labor.

[Through hard work, your relationship quickly becomes closer]

[You and the Medicine Dao Sanxian become close friends]

A smile appeared on Rhine's lips.

Ok, good, good!
You gave me property and talent, good brother!
The master of herbal medicine looked at Rhine with excitement.

This master of herbal medicine doesn't make any money. He has worked diligently in farming all his life and has earned a reputation as a master of herbal medicine, but the money he earns is just so-so.

If you want to make money, you have to work in finance.

Damn Gringotts, damn capitalists, parasites!
It’s my good brother Rhine who leads us to rob the rich and help the poor!

The master of herbal medicine took out his seal on the spot and enthusiastically put it into Rhine's hand.

There was a joyful scene at Hogwarts Castle.

But in Gringotts, Florina's face was covered with frost as she watched the Gringotts goblins screaming at the top of their lungs.

"What do you mean?"

"It cost five times more than the estimated cost. What does that mean?!"

"Aren't you Gringotts the forefathers of money-playing? The entire British wizarding world's money depends on you for circulation, and you tell me you've suffered heavy losses?"

"You want me to bear the extra costs?!"

The goblins in Gringotts also looked unhappy.

"Master Florina, our contract clearly states that the cost is an estimate, and the specific situation will change according to market fluctuations."

"We advise you to calm down. After all, we goblins are now protected by the laws of the wizarding world. We are so pitiful. Ever since we lost the Goblin War, we have been forced to huddle in Gringotts."

"We at Gringotts are a vulnerable group. You'd better not be impulsive."

Florina really felt like she was screwed.

Gringotts?
Vulnerable groups?

You are weak, where is your mother?

But at this moment, looking at the goblin staring at her, Florina had to suffer the loss. She used her connections everywhere and scraped together some money, which allowed her to leave Gringotts.

Even so, her lever was almost reaching the sky at this moment.

It is enough to wipe out the accumulation of several generations of a medium-sized pure-blood family.

Fortunately, I got the ancient seeds without any trouble.

Florina walked out of Gringotts with a dark face and gritted teeth, with only one thought in her mind.

As long as Sprout and Rhine don't get the honor of being the first to cultivate ancient plants, all the efforts will be worth it.

The fame and fortune that comes with it can easily allow him to regain everything.

And the teacher, he gave me that living piece of ancient plant to cultivate. It showed how much trust he had in me.

As long as I nurture it thoroughly, even if I have nothing, the teacher will never ignore me.

Taking a deep breath, Florina returned to Hogwarts again.

What she didn't expect was that during the short time she was away, those masters of herbal medicine were chatting and laughing with Rhine, looking so happy.

Why is it that when they see me coming, they all turn their heads away embarrassedly and guiltily, as if they owe me money?
But soon, Florina no longer had the mind to worry about these things.

She was now preoccupied with one thing: to quickly prove to Rhine and Sprout that they had committed academic fraud.

She asked herself if she was ready for anything.

How many days will it take for Rhine to make the ancient seeds mature?
She never believed it.

Even if he could, those materials were eventually swept away by himself, and Rhine didn't even have any materials. Why?
Could a magic trick make the ancient seeds grow again? !

Florina took a deep breath and took out the remaining ancient seeds.

"There are two more, for a total of thirty-two seeds."

"Why, is that enough now?"

"Or do you have another excuse?"

Rhine laughed and reached out to take the ancient seeds.

"Okay, come with me."

Immediately, Rhine walked towards the direction where the Whomping Willow was transforming.

There was a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

The Yimu Divine Light has a miraculous effect in stimulating the vitality of these ancient seeds. Just one brush can make these ancient seeds mature quickly after several years.

But for those who have the talent to become demon immortals in the ancient times and are even contaminated by the aura of Fengqi Wutong fire, and are expected to become the whomping willow of Jianmu in the magic world, the Yimu divine light will help their transformation, but it will not happen overnight.

But if the vitality generated by these thirty ancient seeds, like dead trees coming back to life, is used as a catalyst, the Whomping Willow may be able to skip the long metamorphosis period in advance and be reborn directly!
With the Whomping Willow's aptitude, if it grows a little, it can become a very powerful helper.

In addition, the charred bodies that have shed their bodies from the Whomping Willow can also be used as materials for Rhine to refine the Golden Pill of All Demons.

Even the magical harp needed to practice the top-level magical power Fuxi Shentianxiang can be made with the materials of the Whomping Willow, which can be said to kill three birds with one stone!
Looking at Rhine's excited back, Florina felt a strong sense of unease in her heart.

But she soon dispelled her worries.

"It's just pretentious."

"I want to see what other tricks you can use."

"If you have the guts, use Transfiguration right in front of us and turn another ancient plant into something else."

Professor Sprout, Florina and a group of herbal masters followed Rhine and came to the front of the Whomping Willow.

Looking at the charred Whomping Willow, the masters of herbalism all showed astonishment and regret in their eyes.

"Sprout, what is this?"

Professor Sprout also sighed.

"During a thunderstorm, the Whomping Willow was struck by lightning, and that's what happened."

Florina sneered.

"The Whomping Willow is a good one. It has gone through several Herbology professors at Hogwarts over the years without any problems. But it became a problem when it met you."

"This is such a rare ancient plant, there is only one in the entire magical world, yet it has become like this under your care. This shows how incompetent you are."

"Who would still believe that you can cultivate ancient plants?"

She looked towards Rhine.

"Come on, what on earth are you trying to do by bringing us here?"

"I want to see what excuses you can come up with now."

"Of the thirty-two ancient seeds, which one can you make sprout and mature quickly, replicating the situation of the Great King Flash Flower?"

"If you can do it, I'll give you all these seeds. If you can't, there's no need to debate the issue of academic fraud, right?"

Professor Sprout retorted to her with disdain.

"You are really anxious."

"After leaving Hogwarts, I cleared out the market for moonwort and the ingredients for making the Bordeaux potion."

"Flina, you keep saying that Rhine and I are committing academic fraud, but why are you reacting so fearfully?"

"Are you so afraid of losing?"

Florina's expression turned pale and purple. She never expected that her actions would be discovered.

But after a moment, she snorted coldly.

"Who can prove it?"

"Besides, if you don't even have a stable supply of Moon Marrow Grass and Bordeaux potion ingredients, how can you even talk about cultivating ancient plants?"

"The lack of these materials is your problem, not mine!"

Florina said impatiently.

"Okay, stop rambling. I don't have that much time to waste. Tell me, which seed do you want to use to recreate your manipulation of the King's Flash Flower?"

Her eyes were full of malice.

"Without Moonweed and Bordeaux potion, I'm really looking forward to it. How are you going to cultivate it?"

Rhine sneered.

"Your vision is limited to Moon Marrow Grass and Bordeaux Potion."

"Why is it so troublesome to cultivate herbs?"

"Looking forward to it? Then watch carefully!"

The next moment, Rhine held up the thirty-two ancient seeds in one hand.

In an instant, thirty-two seeds flew around Rhine.

A glittering green light burst out from Rhine's hand.

Yimu Divine Light appears in the magic world!

A beam of light encompassed the thirty-two seeds and the Whomping Willow's sprouts.

Florina laughed out loud, her laughter full of irony and absurdity.

"Is this how you cultivate ancient plants?"

"A magic that came from nowhere?"

"Hahaha, I've studied herbology for so many years. Don't I know better than you whether magic is effective on ancient seeds?"

"If a first-year wizard's magic can be effective, I will just..."

But the next second, Florina's laughter stopped abruptly.

Everyone present also held their breath.

Because under the bright green light, a slight clicking sound was heard, and it was deafening when it fell into the ears.

The hard shell of an ancient seed that had been silent for countless years was broken, and a tender sprout emerged from it after thousands of years!
And this one is just the beginning.

In a short while, one ancient seed after another began to sprout.

The first seed, that tender sprout, became tough at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A delicate white flower swayed in the wind, exuding the fragrance of ancient herbs!
In the blink of an eye, the ancient plants that sprang out madly covered Rhine's figure, making it appear vaguely.

But after witnessing this scene, all the herbal medicine masters present looked at the looming figure with only complete awe in their eyes.

The ancient plant that enveloped the Rhine looked like a crown to them.

A crown for the king of herbalism!

With one thought, the flowers bloom and rule the world!
And the next second, this surging vitality seemed to have stimulated the Whomping Willow, which was undergoing transformation.

Under the catalysis of the Yimu Divine Light and this vitality, the spark of Fengqi Wutong Fire on the Whomping Willow suddenly began to burn fiercely.

A branch wrapped in the fire of the Phoenix Tree and the sharpness of a sword's energy sprouted from the tender bud of the Whomping Willow.

After this one, in the blink of an eye, there were dozens, hundreds, thousands and millions of such branches, filling the sky in this corner of Hogwarts.

Above the branches, the sword energy was ringing, splitting the clouds across the sky, and the sword soared into the sky!
Everyone stared at this scene blankly.

At this moment, the Whomping Willow shed its charred body, and a brand new body was born from it.

From top to bottom, it exudes a sacred and powerful aura.

There is also the fire of the Phoenix Perching on the Wutong Tree, and the wood and fire are actually merged into one at this moment.

In the Hogwarts Tower, Fawkes the Phoenix looked excited. He let out a long cry, flapped his wings, and flew out, landing on the branches of the Whomping Willow.

Rhine looked at the scene and a look of joy appeared on his face.

At this moment, the Whomping Willow really has some of the flavor of Jianmu.

Even his spirituality was much stronger than before.

Its voice could even be heard by Rhine's ears.

"Thanks……"

Rhine smiled slightly.

"Now that you've been reborn from the ashes, the name Whomping Willow is no longer worthy of you."

"With your talent, you can be said to have the potential to become a demon fairy. You deserve the word fairy."

"From today on, your name will be—Liu Xian!"
