Chapter 192 Resettlement of Assets
The summer vacation has passed without realizing it. Hermione is about to start school, and Locke has also learned all the magic books he bought.
The identity arranged by the system is just identity. It is impossible to teach Locke all kinds of magical knowledge in this world directly. However, with his super-minded mind and deep foundation, Locke easily mastered the general knowledge of wizards in this world.
But it is obvious that these are just basics. The books you can buy in bookstores do not contain a larger number of banned books. Locke feels that he still needs to find opportunities from Hogwarts Academy.
"Mr. Locke, many of the magic principles you and I told are not recorded in the book. You know so much, so you must be a very famous wizard in the magic world."
Putting down his notebook, Hermione looked at Locke with a bit of admiration.
"In fact, I'm not famous in the magic world." Locke shrugged: "Because I prefer to focus on research and don't like to show off."
"Is that true? It feels a bit regretful." Hermione couldn't help but say.
"The magic world is not as happy as you think. You will know when you arrive at the academy." Locke said slowly:
"I came from a Muggle family, and many so-called pure blood families with inheritance look down on people like me. If you act too prominently, it may cause some trouble."
"But when encountering such an unfair thing, shouldn't we find a way to fight?" Hermione couldn't help but say.
"These things are deeply rooted in the wizarding world. Instead of focusing on fighting, it is better to focus on the improvement of one's own magic."
Locke said slowly: "Magic is an extraordinary power. If you want to gain the right to speak, you must have strong enough strength.
This is what I want to tell you, don’t waste time and energy because of unnecessary arguments, and focus more on improving your own strength.
When you are strong enough, no matter what these people think in their hearts, you must be respected enough."
"Okay." Hermione was still a little angry.
"Okay, you're about to start school. When you arrive at Hogwarts, maybe we can meet again." Rock said with a smile.
"Really?!" Hermione shouted in surprise.
"I got a job in Hogwarts to manage books so that I can learn magic books that I can't buy on the market, so when you arrive at the academy, we should meet often."
"That's great." Hermione cheered, about to go to a strange place, and it is indeed a happy thing to have a familiar person.
Finally, it was the day when Hogwarts started school. Rock came to Granger's house early in the morning, watched Hermione count the last time she needed to go to school, and then drove to Kings Cross Railway Station.
"Mr. Locke, where is that platform?" asked Mr. Granger.
"The train ticket is printed very clearly, Mr. Granger," said Rock.
"But I've been on the bus many times and have never seen any platform 9." Mr. Granger frowned and said, "Is it invisible magic or something?"
Seeing Locke smiled and agreed, Mr. Granger could only say, "Okay, let me tell me where I am. I'm going to drive in half an hour, don't waste time."
"Dad idiot." Hermione, who was with Locke, smiled and said, "Platform 9 is naturally between the ninth and tenth platforms."
"Really?" Mr. Granger looked at Locke: "I thought you all things in the magic world were used to violating common sense of ordinary people."
"This may be the case in other aspects, but the platform is an exception. After all, we have to take care of some new students whose parents are ordinary people." Locke explained.
"Sure enough, I guessed it right!" Hermione said with a smile.
The group of four came to the open space between the ninth and tenth platforms. Mr. Granger couldn't help but look for it, while Locke pointed to the load-bearing wall column in front of him.
"Then how should we get over?" Mr. Granger looked at the wall in front of him, and then saw a teenager in his teenager pushing his luggage and slamming his head against the wall and disappearing.
"That child just went in like this, aren't he afraid of being seen?" Mr. Granger couldn't help asking.
"A spell set here will make people subconsciously ignore it. If someone hadn't reminded me, no one would have noticed what happened."
Locke explained: "Even if someone notices, the wizards patrolling nearby will handle it.
OK, don't waste time, Mr. Granger, Hermione and I went in. Only wizards can pass here, and ordinary people will only hit the wall."
"Okay." The Grangers could only watch Hermione tell her to be careful, and then asked Locke to take good care of her.
After agreeing, Locke took Hermione forward and soon discovered that the surrounding environment had changed dramatically. Hermione looked around in a very novel way.
"It's up to you next. This is a car specifically for picking up new students." Locke took Hermione to the ticket gate, told her, watched her get on the train, and then left after the train drove away.
Locke was not in a hurry to go to Hogwarts. He was not like the professors in the college. They were still busy with freshmen when they entered the school. Locke, a librarian, was very leisurely and could wait for two days before taking office.
Due to the limitations of bloodlines, there are not many people in the wizard world as a whole. Just like in the magic world in the UK, thousands of people have divided into various factions and organizations. In Locke's view, he is the little demon in the temple, and the wind is strong and the water is shallow.
Even if the top leaders of the magic world have a little bit of self-knowledge, the entire wizard world is self-inflicted, and if they really want to control the world of ordinary people, the end result will probably be the opposite.
Locke didn't plan to spend all the time in Hogwarts. Since he learned that he had come to this world, Locke also had his own plan. He had already purchased an industry in Diagon Alley a few days ago.
It is located on the street behind Gringott. Most of the houses here are wizards' residences, some for sale and some for rent.
However, most wizards choose to rent a house because for ordinary wizards, it is too expensive to buy a house permanently in Diagon Alley, especially those that cast the permanent traceless extension spell.
What Locke bought was a house facing the street. From the outside, the entrance was only as wide as a few doors. The upper and lower floors were only seventy or eighty square meters in total.
But after entering, each floor was more than 360 square meters of spacious space, and Rock bought it and spent nearly 10,000 Gallons.
Purchasing a house in Diagon Alley is relatively simple. You only need to negotiate with the original owner and then undergo review by the Ministry of Magic. However, this review is relatively simple, which means submitting some Gallon to register.
But if you want to open a store in Diagon Alley, it will be more troublesome. The entire process is very cumbersome, and the Ministry of Magic has to review all aspects of the applicant.
On the contrary, there is almost no one to take care of the overturned alley next door. As long as there is a house, you can open a shop at will. However, due to the overall environment, safety cannot be guaranteed sufficiently, and you need to rely on your own strength.
Because Locke made a lot of money to exchange for Garon in a short period of time, the fairies of the Guling Pavilion were more enthusiastic about Locke and even improved his service level.
In addition to Diagon Alley, there are many wizards gathered in Hogsmeade, and some wizards live with ordinary people, or live in their own manors.
It is very convenient to move between several locations by moving with Flu Powder or Phantom.
In addition to the house in Diagon Alley, Locke also bought a house in Hogsmeade and applied to establish Floor Network between the two houses.
I bought a house several times and it was all smooth. Locke bought houses that had cast the permanent traceless extension curse, and the prices were higher than the market price.
In addition to the house, Rock applied for two house elves in the Ministry of Magic’s relocation office a few days ago.
