For Harry, Hermione, and Ron, dealing with the stranger Mondungus Fletcher was undoubtedly quite difficult. They have never had similar experience, and they have no trust in this Mr. Thief. The possibility of the two parties eventually reaching a deal is really low.
After hesitating again and again, Hermione finally wrote to Mondungus Fletcher, and mentioned in the letter that she was a customer introduced by Albert, hoping to buy a small amount of double-horned beast horns and The skin of an African tree snake.
When Mondungus Fletcher received Hermione's letter, he was actually dumbfounded. He didn't know Hermione Granger at all, and even suspected that the other party had sent him an envelope with additional materials.
However, from what I read in the opened envelope, I found that the other party was actually the customer introduced by Anderson.
Mondungus Fletcher held the letter in his hand, and whispered the items he needed in his mouth: "The horns of the two-horned beast and the skin of the African tree snake?"
This seems to be... the raw material for making a compound medicine?
In general, these two raw materials are only needed when making compound medicines.
Of course, Mr. Mondungus, the thief, could guess at the first time, Miss Granger, who wrote to himself, needed these two ingredients to make a potion, more because he had helped people find double-horned beasts before. The horns and the skin of the African tree snake were in trouble, so I was very impressed.
In the black market, it is not particularly difficult to get a small amount of the horns of the two-horned beast and the skin of the African tree snake.
After all, in the black market, there will always be a few unseen guys who like to use compound medicines to disguise themselves.
The thief Mr. Montongues decided to accept this deal, which was considered a good deal. By the way, he gave Anderson a face. He had a good impression of the young Anderson. Every once in a while, the other party would ask him to help collect some things. Although they are all strange things, they can always make a small profit. This kind of long-term business, Mondungus is naturally willing to maintain.
Mondungus first rummaged through his little suitcase to see if there were stored double-horned beast horns and African tree snake skins.
However, the remaining raw materials in the suitcase are things of little value.
Mondungus cursed and closed the suitcase, and by the way wrote back to the Hermione Granger, offering a high price of 10 gallons.
If the other party is willing to pay, he is sure to help the other party get the ingredients.
As for the fat sheep?
Sorry, there is no reason for the fat sheep to be sent up.
The opponent is not Anderson who can always drive the lowest line of his psychological acceptance.
However, after releasing the owl, Mondungus suddenly regretted it again. He was a little worried that Granger would give up the deal with him because the price he offered was too high, and wanted to catch up with the owl. He took the sent letter again and changed it, but the owl was unwilling to give it to him, and he hurt Mondungus' arm and made him scream in pain.
"I hope this business won't go bad!" Mondungus muttered, examining the wound on his arm.
Soon after, Hermione received a reply from Mondungus, but the other party opened a big mouth in the letter and directly proposed the high price of ten gallons, which made Hermione feel that her breathing was about to stop, and there was absolutely nothing in her pocket. With so many gallons, even with the money, Hermione would not spend a lot of gallons on the horns of the double-horned beast and the skin of the African tree snake.
"That guy must be crazy." Hermione murmured, clutching the letter paper tightly, "Harry must be persuaded to let him give up."
"Persuade me what?"
At this moment, Harry and Ron walked over here, sat down beside them, looked at Hermione who was clutching the letter paper in doubt, and asked, "Whose letter, did Mondungus reply?"
Hermione hesitated for a moment, and handed Harry the letter he had just received.
Ron and Harry moved their heads immediately.
"Ten gallons, is he definitely crazy?"
Ron felt that he was almost overwhelmed by the weight of ten gallons. Those raw materials were not worth a gallon at all. As Albert said, the other party offered ten times the price and treated them as A fool.
Harry is not short of money, but ten gallons still make him feel painful.
After all, even if he had money, the inheritance stored in the Gringotts vault would be used a little less.
However, considering that the money was spent and there was no need to mess around in Snape's potions class, he finally agreed to pay the Garon for the horns of the double-horned beast and the skin of the African tree snake.
"Reply to him, I'll buy it!" Harry gritted his teeth.
He, Harry Potter is rich.
"Don't worry Harry, we'd better go to Albert for advice." Hermione quickly stopped Harry's decision, "I don't think you want to be slaughtered as a fat sheep by the other party!"
Ron fully agreed with Hermione's proposal, thinking that they should ask Albert so they wouldn't be fooled by Mondungus.
Ten Kalong is too expensive. The horns of the double-horned beast and the skin of the African tree snake are not worth the price.
If it really took ten gallons, Ron would rather agree to Hermione's less reliable plan.
After all, the money cannot be divided equally between the three, and Ron and Hermione don't have that many Gallons in their pockets.
It took a lot of time for the three of them to finally find the opportunity. During breakfast, they blocked Albert outside the hall and took the opportunity to solicit each other's advice.
Albert finished reading the Mondungus Fletcher's reply that Harry handed him, and commented, "It's expensive. The few double-horned horns and African tree snake skins are not worth the price. Although it’s not surprising to say that the black market is ten times higher, it is usually slaughtered as a fat sheep."
"How much do you think it is worth?"
"Those raw materials are probably worth one gallon. UU reading www.uukānshu.com three to five gallons, Mondungus Fletcher will definitely be willing to sell you things." Albert thought for a while. , So he estimated a price for Harry.
Harry was very depressed. No one wanted to be slaughtered as a fat sheep, but if they couldn't get these two ingredients, they would need to risk breaking into Snape's office.
"Thank you," Harry said gratefully. "Otherwise I will be fooled by him."
"You can go to Hogsmeade to trade with him. Talk face-to-face, pay in one hand and take the goods in the other. Don't pay first, otherwise he will definitely not deliver the goods to you." Albert reminded kindly, "With Those guys need to be very cautious when dealing with them, so as not to be fooled by them with fakes, which often happens in the black market."
"We can't go to Hogsmeade." Harry was very depressed. He found that buying things on the black market was more troublesome than expected. Not only did he have to prevent himself from being slaughtered as a fat sheep, but he also needed to be careful when he gave fakes. Will you encounter the situation of black eating black?
"There is a secret road on the fifth floor of the castle that leads to the outside of the castle. Fred and George ran to Hogsmeade through the secret road in the first grade." Albert glanced at Hermione and continued: "If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for the next trip to Hogsmeade, and let Fred and George drop by to help you deal with Mondungus Fletcher. They have experience in this area."
The three looked at each other, and never thought that there would be a secret road leading outside the school.
"If you are in a hurry, you have to give them some running errands and let them go to Hogsmeade instead of you."
Ron's expression on his face was particularly complicated after hearing Albert's words. In fact, he also wanted the so-called errand fees.
