Harry Potter Raven's Claw
Chapter 434: Cross-Country Selling
Facing Dumbledore, whose emotions were a little out of control, Mike neither comforted nor explained, but looked at him silently.
About five minutes later, Dumbledore took a deep breath, finally raised his head, looked at Mike with a complicated face and said:
"I began to regret leaving this matter to you."
"What? You have something to do with the Avery family?"
"It's just some insignificant friendship," Dumbledore said, spreading his hands, "I just think your approach to dealing with these things is too extreme. This is not good, very bad."
"I know, I will change it." Mike replied insincerely, "So can you tell me about this pendant now?"
Dumbledore's expression was helpless. He knew very well that Mike was completely perfunctory to him, but in the end he picked up the pendant box and said while looking at it:
"First of all, this is indeed a real Slytherin pendant."
Mike's brow suddenly frowned, this was the answer he least wanted to hear.
"In addition, I found some residual familiar smells on it. I can be sure that it was definitely Voldemort's taste, which also shows that your guess is correct. This pendant box is indeed a Horcrux." Dumbledore said with a frown, "At least it was once a Horcrux, because the smell on it is very light now. This means that someone has removed the Voldemort soul split attached to it first, and did it without damaging the body of the pendant box!"
Upon hearing this, Mike was relieved at first, but then his expression became solemn again.
The soul splitting on the Slytherin pendant box was removed, which is definitely good news for Mike, because it shows that the only one of Voldemort's Horcruxes is left.
But at the same time, Mike also smelled a scent of conspiracy from it.
Who else is destroying the Horcrux besides them?
What purpose does that person or that group of people have?
...
Countless questions kept coming into Mike's mind, which made him feel very painful.
Reason told him that the guy who destroyed the soul splitting on the pendant box was probably Chris, but Mike could not think of the reason why the other party did this.
You should know that Chris is a pure-blooded wizard. Voldemort's existence is good for them. If that's the case, why do they do such a thing?
After pondering for a moment, Mike, who was still puzzled, finally raised his eyes and looked at Dumbledore.
"Do you think that person would be Chris? Why did he do that?"
Compared to Mike's solemnity, Dumbledore's expression was much more relaxed.
In response to Mike's inquiry, he slowly spread his hands and persuaded:
"Anyway, we still succeeded from the results, right? Although we don't know what those people think, at least another Horcrux has been wiped out. You have done a good job, so leave the rest to me and I will handle it. As for you, I suggest you take a good rest or review Potions. After all, you didn't like this course very much when Snape was there, so the grades were not very ideal. But this year is different. I plan to hire a new professor of Potions. This new professor is different from Snape. He is very friendly and strict."
As he was talking, Dumbledore suddenly laughed as if he had remembered something happy.
But Mike, opposite him, obviously was not in a good mood. He just narrowed his eyes and continued to stare at Dumbledore.
Mike knew very well that Dumbledore's words meant to ask him not to care about these things anymore.
I believe this is because Dumbledore made a decision after misunderstanding that Mike slaughtered the entire Avery family.
Dumbledore would rather drag his half-dead wounded body around than let the tragedy of the Aifry family reappear!
Mike still did not make any other excuses about this.
Then, Dumbledore began to talk to Mike about the things to pay attention to Hogwarts' new semester. He seemed to want Mike to return to school and study, and kept telling Mike about the interesting things that happened in Hogwarts.
To be honest, the events he told were very interesting and his narrative level was very high.
However, this was really not difficult for Dumbledore. After all, he had been in Hogwarts for nearly a hundred years. Mike even suspected that if he needed it, he could talk endlessly and never repeat it for a day and a night.
But Mike is useless to Mike.
To be honest, he had no interest in Hogwarts because the courses at Hogwarts were no longer helpful to him.
The reason why Mike continued to go to school was to monitor the movements of the Harry Potter trio. Mike never relaxed his vigilance for the protagonist trio in the original work.
In addition, his subordinates at Hogwarts are also an important reason.
But now most of his subordinates are about to graduate, and Voldemort is about to launch a more fierce attack. Mike is even ready to leave Hogwarts at any time as the opportunity is right in the next school year!
Dumbledore naturally didn't know all this, and when Mike saw that the other party was no longer willing to reveal more information, he stood up and saluted Dumbledore expressionlessly. Then he turned around and left the office. Before leaving, he even took the string of Slytherin pendant boxes in his arms.
Mike left the forest villa at a very fast speed. When he walked out of the villa, the house elf who didn't know whether it was called a small teacup or a small teapot, greeted Mike diligently again.
Of course, Mike still ignored him and teleported away with the door key with a dark face.
At this time, Dumbledore looked at Mike's distorted figure and the somewhat lost domestic elf in the garden, and shook his head helplessly.
...
After leaving the villa in the forest, Mike became busy again.
As mentioned before, resource mining in the Avery Secret Realm is an extremely tedious and huge task. Mike is not a bad capitalist. He would not let Benjamin do such a huge amount of work alone.
Of course, this is just an ostensible reason, but in fact it is because the efficiency of having Benjamin handle it alone is too low.
After drawing more than a dozen business elites from Los Santo Group for several days, Mike finally figured out the specific situation of the Avery family industry.
The production cost of Avery Magic and Avery Magic Liquid is actually very low, and it can even be said that there is no cost at all. After all, labor and raw materials are completely free.
And their output is amazing.
However, in order to maintain stable market prices and high profits, the Avery family has been controlling the number of Avery magic liquid and magic cloth circulating on the market over the years.
The most direct result of this is that the goods stockpiled in the Avery Secret Land have reached an astonishing amount.
Since Mike wanted to squeeze out all the profits in Avery's territory as soon as possible, he planned to sell all of these goods directly at one time.
However, in this way, the profits that can be obtained from trading will be very low, because this large amount of goods flowing into the market will inevitably saturate the market, resulting in a drop in commodity prices.
This is almost an unsolvable problem for the original Avery family, because their market basically only exists in Yingguo, and the number of wizards in Yingguo is not too many.
But for Mike, it would be much easier to solve this problem.
You know, they started planning overseas markets several years in advance. Major wizard gathering areas such as the United States and France have even had specialty stores of the Los Santo Group.
Although these stores have been losing money, Mike never gave up on them, and now, Mike's investment has finally paid off.
Through the International Floor Network, a large number of goods that have been renamed Los Santo Mob and Los Santo Mod Liquid were directly transported to Los Santo stores where wizards gather around the world.
These excellent materials directly conquered all local garment makers and pharmacists.
Not only that, when selling these products, Mike also referred to the low-price zone policy of Muggle World. When facing the black witch shamans on Africa, the prices of Los Santos Demon Liquid and Magic Cloth will be much lower. At the same time, it continues to launch discounts and discounts at the original prices, which reduces the prices of high-price zones, and the prices of low-price zones that are not high have also become even lower.
In comparison, European countries such as France and the United Kingdom are more expensive. Of course, the prices in countries such as the United States are still cheaper, because Mike directly increased the price of these two goods in the United States by nearly twice!
There is no way to do this. At this stage, the wizards in the United States are the richest in the entire wizard world, just like the United States itself. How could Mike miss such an opportunity to slaughter a fierce attack?
As for you talking about Asia, Mike didn't give them much discount.
Especially the wizards or immortals in that huge ancient country, the price given by Mike was almost exactly the same as that of Ying country.
This is because the group of wizards who claim to be immortals are all rich people, and the economic conditions of the wizard society are not inferior to those of Yingguo at all!
Due to the existence of low-price zone policies, a new profession has emerged, that is, overseas purchasing agents.
They usually travel between the low-price zone and the high-price zone, and help wizards such as high-price zones buy cheaper goods through smuggling and other means.
It is actually very simple to deal with these people. You only need to limit the amount of goods sold in the low-price area.
However, Mike did not do this. He did not want to strangle all these purchasing agents to death. Therefore, although he also sold the low-price area in a limited quantity, the scope of the limited quantity of the goods was firmly controlled by him within a purchasing agent who made money but did not have much money.
The main reason for doing this is to make the name of Los Santo Group more well-known!
The facts proved that this policy was very effective. Under Mike's indulgence, the European market, which had become a little gloomy due to Voldemort's return, became lively again. A large number of purchasing agents and products made using Los Santo Mo cloth and magic liquid flowed into the market.
For a time, the Luo Shengdu Magic Liquid and Magic Bu became famous, and as the producer and seller of these two goods, the name of the Luo Shengdu Group also became famous throughout the wizard world.
And all of this happened in just half a month.
In the past half a month, Mike cleared all the inventory in the Avery Secret territory!
Due to the role of low-price zones and continuous preferential activities, although there are continuous subsidies from high-price zones, the profits from selling this batch of goods are still less than expected.
But these are just minor issues, and Mike's initial goal - quickly draining the benefits and achieving them.
And now the markets around the world have been opened, and the reputation of Luo Shengdu Group and Mobu Mo Liquid should be made!
At present, the global market needs a small Avery Secret Realm that is absolutely unsatisfactory.
Then what Mike has to do next is to raise the price as expected!
Those who are used to using magic cloth and magic liquid will slowly find that the products they need will become more expensive and eventually become more expensive than they were originally in Yingguo.
This is the long-term development plan that Mike made. The original Avery family was too conservative and did not dare to open overseas markets, causing a large amount of goods to be hoarded.
In Mike's opinion, this was really a waste. Now that he is here, we can't let this happen again.
If his plan can continue smoothly, the output of the Avery Secret Realm in the future will be several times higher than the original one!
Of course, the reason why Mike was able to make so much money was due to the hard work of the huge ants in the secret realm.
Mike originally thought that the ant queen Lilith would still disobey him for a while, after all, in the other party's eyes, his behavior might have a sense of gratitude and revenge.
But in fact, after observation, Mike found that not only did the ants not just not lazy, but instead worked harder!
This made Mike puzzled.
However, Mike still likes the way they try to make money for themselves, so Mike relaxed some resource blockades for the queen.
Lilith began to allow some food and property to be requested within a certain range.
Mike swears that his intention to do this was to compensate and reward Lilith, but Lilith obviously regarded this as a reward for work or something.
So, the day after giving the gift, all the ants in the Avery Secret territory went crazy, and they began to cut down the mushrooms crazily. Even the soldiers who did not need to work in the past were sent out to transport supplies!
Mike, who was in the office of the Masonic Secretariat, was stunned after hearing Penelo's statement.
But after he realized it, he smiled and was very happy.
"Hahaha, it seems she likes my gifts very much. That's great. If they can continue to work this passion, then the supplies to Lilith will be doubled next month."
"knew."
Penelo smiled and wrote down Mike's words, preparing to convey them later.
And Mike in front of him finally returned to normal and said with a smile:
"Help me assemble all the Freemasons, I'll have a small meeting later."
