Being at Hogwarts, something's not right with this system.
06. Excessive shopping
Emerging from Gringotts, Lin Yu, now laden with a fortune, exuded confidence and even walked with a swagger.
Given that he spent a lot of time in Gringotts, the Granger family should have finished their shopping by now, right?
He no longer needs to worry about the danger of dying if he encounters the Granger family again.
So Lin Yu took the shopping list that came with the admission notice in one hand and started shopping.
First, we arrived at Madam Malkin's Robe Shop.
Although all wizarding robes required at Hogwarts are of the same style, this shop is considered the best and is therefore very popular.
When Lin Yu found the shop, he discovered that there were many little wizards following the adults inside.
These are all new students this year, and they have all received their admission notices. They are now buying what they need.
Lin Yu originally wanted to avoid the crowds and buy some other things first, but when he looked up, he found that other shops were in a similar situation, and the streets were even becoming overcrowded.
Having no other choice, he squeezed through the crowd and found the shop owner.
Lady Malkin is a friendly, somewhat plump witch.
Seeing that Lin Yu had come alone, she kindly asked him, "What do you need?"
Lin Yu stated his needs: "I'm a freshman, just give me three robes."
According to Lin Yu's measurements, Madam Malkin found him three robes that he needed.
Lin Yu also paid eighteen Galleons for this.
And it wasn't just a robe; there was actually an inner lining, including three pairs of trousers, three shirts, and even three pairs of leather shoes.
If it's a girl, it's not pants but a skirt.
Therefore, Lin Yu simply changed out of his old clothes in the changing room and put on a brand new wizard robe. Even though school hasn't started yet, he already looks like a wizard.
In addition, Lin Yu also bought a mage's hat, a pair of dragon skin protective gloves, and a winter cloak, spending a total of fifteen Galleons.
Aside from the school uniform, put everything else into the system space first.
The system has stopped protesting and is now cooperating with Lin Yu's demands as if it has given up.
Next, Lin Yu left Madam Malkin's shop and went to Patchi's cauldron shop.
After comparing several options, Lin Yu purchased a standard-sized No. 2 copper pot from the Patchi Crucible Shop for twenty-five Gallons.
After that, he went to Flourish and Blotts and bought a complete set of textbooks needed for new students.
That's right, Hogwarts lets students prepare their own textbooks for the new term, rather than having the school distribute them to them.
These textbooks include "Standard Spells for Beginners", "History of Magic", "Theory of Magic", "Transfiguration Guide for Beginners", "A Thousand Magical Herbs and Mushrooms", "Magic Potions and Elixirs", "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", and "Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Defense".
These books cost a total of twenty-eight Galleons.
On his way, Lin Yu passed by a magical zoo, where he bought a cat as his pet.
He originally wanted to buy an owl, but a cat with pure white fur and bright blue eyes captivated him.
The cat also liked Lin Yu very much. After spending twelve Galleons to acquire ownership of the cat, Lin Yu could hold it in his arms.
The cat nestled comfortably in his arms, its eyes half-closed, and it purred softly.
Lin Yu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Perhaps I can call you Snoring?"
Huru didn't make any other resistance, so it seems it really likes the name.
Lin Yu glanced at the list again and muttered, "Now I only need a wand. Speaking of wands, I really have to go to Ollivander's Wand Shop."
Anyone who has read Harry Potter, whether the movies, the books, or fan works, should have a deep impression of Ollivanders Wand Shop.
So Lin Yu found the Ollivanders wand shop, pushed open the door and went inside.
Mr. Ollivander, who was standing at the counter, looked up at the sound and asked with a smile, "Are you here to buy a wand? Or is there something else?"
Besides selling wands, he can also repair wands here, which is why I asked this question.
Lin Yu stated his purpose: "I hope to have a magic wand of my own."
"No problem," Ollivander was a gentle and kind elder.
Just like with Madam Malkin they had encountered before, even though Lin Yu was alone, they still showed goodwill to this newly minted wizard.
Of course, this is Diagon Alley. If you accidentally wander into Tumbler Alley, the situation will probably be quite different.
Soon, Ollivander came over with a long box, opened it, took out a wand, and handed it to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu took the wand and felt a warmth in his palm, but he had a feeling that this was not the wand he was looking for.
Lin Yu shook his head and handed the wand back to Ollivander, saying, "It shouldn't be this one."
Ollivander didn't say anything, but simply put away his wand and went back to searching.
Lin Yu looked up and saw that the shop was narrow and crowded, with wand cabinets that reached the ceiling and were filled with wands made over the years. In the window, a single wand was displayed on a faded purple mat.
Here, all you see are magic wands; there's nothing else.
At that moment, Ollivander came over again with a box and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be it."
Lin Yu noticed that Ollivander had a pair of silver-white eyes, filled with a determined look.
Although Lin Yu didn't know why the other party was so certain, he knew the other party was a professional, so he took the new wand from Ollivander's hand again.
The instant the wand touched his hand, Lin Yu immediately knew it was the one; it was the wand he needed.
It's amazing, but the moment Lin Yu held the wand, he felt a sudden surge of excitement. It wasn't just the warmth in his palm; it felt like the wand was an extension of his own body.
This is truly an amazing magical world.
Seeing that Lin Yu was very satisfied with the wand, Ollivander smiled and gave him a brief introduction to its origin: "Speaking of which, this wand is made from the heartwood of a hundred-year-old peach tree. In the mysterious ancient Eastern country, they regard this kind of wood as a guardian wood. At the same time, the core is made from unicorn tail hair. It may not be the most powerful wand, but it is definitely the most loyal wand. No matter how powerful its owner is, it will never abandon him."
Lin Yu nodded, holding onto the wand tightly, unwilling to let go.
Ollivander, who had seen this many times before, continued, "It's twelve and a quarter inches long (about thirty-one centimeters) and costs seven gallons."
Lin Yu then realized that he still had to pay.
As Lin Yu took out money from his system space, Ollivander kindly reminded him, "Speaking of which, you're a freshman this year, right? Don't forget to send a reply to Hogwarts after you buy your things."
"OK, thanks."
