The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

, the fastest update to the latest chapter on the day of the Hogwarts draw!

Tom looked at the dark sky outside and the boss with a standard Nubian appearance, and decided that this store was the place he was looking for.

"Nubian black tea, please!" While Tom was thinking, the shop owner took out a teapot from somewhere and poured two cups of black tea for Tom and Hermione.

Tom waved his hand away, but the boss laughed, "Free!"

But Tom kept waving his hands to refuse, sometimes drinking other people's tea, but it's not so easy to bargain.

"Are you really not going to have some tea? We are all friends, and friends always ask for a cup of tea when they visit."

When did we become friends? Tom complained in his heart, knowing that he was short-handed, and he naturally refused to accept it. Seeing Tom's resolute attitude, the boss had no choice but to wave his hand a little regretfully, and put the Anubis statue in his hand on the table.

"The statue was too small just now. I have a bigger one here." He even brought a ladder and leaned on the ladder to try to pick up the goods from the top of the shelf.

Seeing this posture, Tom's face turned green. Being overly warmly entertained by the shop owner at a tourist attraction is not necessarily a good thing.

The boss took out an old forearm-length statue with floating dirt on it, but the act of holding the statue seemed to disturb a creature at the top of the shelf.

A black cat with no trace of stray hair jumped down from the top of the cabinet, picking up a large amount of dust and almost knocking the store owner off the ladder. In the hustle and bustle, the boss swept off a lot of things on the top of the shelf.

The dust was filled, Tom saw that there seemed to be a slate in what was swept down, he approached slightly, pretended to care about the boss, and at the same time glanced at the slate without a trace, and made sure that it was really what their expedition was looking for The fourth piece of pattern.

"Are you alright?" Tom held on to the boss's ladder, secretly keeping the figure on the slate firmly in his mind.

"It's okay," the boss brushed off the dust on his body. "It's just a kitten. What kind of bad thoughts can cats have? In Egypt, cats will be forgiven for anything they do."

He pulled over a small stool, sat on it, and began to pack up the goods that had fallen on the ground.

Tom noticed that he put the good statues aside, and cleared the two broken statues into the corner, as for the slate, it was put aside with a cat statue the size of a shoebox.

These two things are very different from those statues that are of poor quality at first glance. At first glance, they are old objects.

"What is this?" Tom asked, pointing to the slabs and carvings.

"I don't know either, the old man left it--well, we can talk about business." He picked up the statue with the length of the arm, and then took out a pink towel, dusted off the floating soil on it, and could see that He had absolutely no idea of ​​selling those two items. As for whether he was acting like this, Tom couldn't say for sure.

Just as he was cleaning the statue, his son came in, silently put away the two antiques, and cleaned up the statue fragments on the ground by the way.

"My friend, let's sit down and talk slowly." He led Tom and Hermione to his shop, found a small table and sat down, and brought two chairs for Tom and Hermione.

"A great statue."

The purpose of Tom's trip has been achieved, and he has no intention of continuing to stroll. Now he just wants to return to Cairo, join Dr. Hunter and the others, and then head for the desert.

But it's nice to buy a souvenir, so Tom is willing to talk to the owner a little.

"How much?"

The shop owner paused, at this time he had wiped off all the floating soil on the wood carving, exposing the dark reddish-brown wood inside, "$280."

Tom:!

"Dollar?"

"Yes, Dao Le, not Egyptian pounds."

In Tom's view, this price is completely unacceptable: this statue is not last week, it was just dug out of the backyard, and you dare to ask for $280!

"280, Egyptian pounds." Tom directly changed the currency unit.

"1800 Egyptian pounds."

"200 Egyptian pounds."

Both fell silent.

"Well," the shopkeeper took out a small notebook, "800, how about it?"

He just erased a "1"

Seeing how painful it was for the shopkeeper to lower the price, Hermione put her wallet back in silence - she almost paid it just now.

Tom still shook his head.

"Are you still students? That's good, not 200 pounds, nor 800 pounds, 500 pounds, the student price."

Tom shook his head, "250 pounds."

"400 pounds!"

Tom:  …

Boss: (￣ー￣)

"Then how much would you say?"

"250 pounds."

"Look at the whole of Aswan now, how can there be a more authentic statue of Anubis than me!" The boss was also anxious, "350 pounds, can you buy it?"

"I only have 250 pounds." Tom looked like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water. Anyway, he wasn't afraid of forced buying and selling. If he really pushed him, he would just show these Muggles a little color.

The boss gave in and waved his hand, "Okay, okay, because we're friends." He quickly took out a black plastic bag and put the statue in it. The speed was so fast that Tom felt as if he was still outbid. .

For 1,800 Egyptian pounds, the abrupt counter-offer reached 250 pounds, which almost refreshed Hermione's three views. In fact, this price is not bad. Some stalls in the hometown of saints can bargain up to 10%. I don't know what the saints in the hall would think if they had spirits.

You may think that if you can have such a disciple when you travel around the world, you will definitely save a lot of money.

Hermione opened her wallet and took out three hundred-dollar bills.

boss:……

It's only 250 pounds! You step on the horse to find fault, right!

But he didn't say much, after all, he didn't make less money from the order just now.

"Did you come here for tourism?" The boss who made a business after a lot of chatter was in a good mood~www.wuxiamtl.com~ He folded his clothes and chatted with Tom.

"Actually, we want to explore the desert." Tom is not afraid to leak any news. It is very common to explore the Sahara these days.

However, the boss was stunned for a moment, and the movements in his hands stopped. He said to Tom seriously: "Friends, I suggest you postpone for a few days. Now is not a good time to go into the desert."

Tom: ?

"You can't enter the desert these days. To be on the safe side, I suggest you postpone it until August. This is the wisdom left by this land to my ancestors."

Tom felt that the current boss was telling the truth.

"The arrow is on the bowstring, I have no choice."

The boss sighed, lost in thought, and then asked his son to bring the cat statue.
