Lady Primpinell Beauty Potions.

"These bastards!"

Looking at the ruins in front of him, William was so angry that he almost wanted to take out his wand and cast a jinx on Old Flint.He already fully understood why the Flint family handed over so readily.

Because this is already an empty lot.

Under the framework of the dilapidated house, the shop was empty and empty—not only did it mean that there was no furniture, decorations, chandeliers, etc., but that the shop originally had two floors and a basement. The shop, at this moment, even the floor, floor tiles, and walls are gone.

As soon as William walked in, he saw a large hole leading to the basement. The broken planks and thick dust filled nearly half of the floor space. It was not known whether it was intentional or not. The Flint family The crystal chandelier on the second floor was not removed.

It's even still lit.

It's literally a barren house.

"Mr. Buffalo, we don't know when they did this. They must have quietly turned this place into this at night."

Lalo said cautiously—he didn't want to sound like he was shirking responsibility, but failing to supervise William's property was also his dereliction of duty.The poor house-elf would have started punishing himself if William hadn't been nearby.

"It's not your fault, the one in Knockturn Lane, I guess it's the same?"

William comforted Larodao, and sure enough, he got a nod from the house-elf in reply.

"It's really not on the table, these people. But it saves us a lot of work. I was still thinking about whether to go too far, but now it's what they asked for."

He made a soft nasal sound.

Naturally, there is no need to look at Knockturn Alley.

Flint and Yaxley had a good idea.

It is not easy to deal with and repair things in the store that are seriously damaged like this, even in the world of wizards-these floor tiles, floors, all kinds of garbage, dust have been mixed together, and the whole room The structure of the store has been fundamentally destroyed, not to the extent that they can fly back to their original place by waving a magic wand.

Dumbledore took these two stores, but as the headmaster of Hogwarts, he naturally couldn't spend a lot of time on remodeling here, and he didn't have a suitable business to operate in Diagon Alley. .

When the impact of this matter fades away, they can contact other families and take back the two shops that have not been put into use through the Hogwarts school council.While they'd definitely have to pay something in exchange then, it's better than losing them altogether.

"Lalo, do you still remember what we did when we built the secret of the Nymph?"

William said viciously.

"Of course! Mr. Buffalo, you instructed us to hang a piece of black cloth that can completely cover the inside of the screaming shack, and then we will transform it inside, and you will use the traceless extension spell to make the store's area It’s actually quite a bit bigger than it looks from the outside.”

Lalo the house elf recalled carefully.

"You want to be here"

"True, but hang the black cloth higher this time - have you seen Gringotts? Hang it three times the height of the Gringotts building, and we're going to make a big one. "

William has always been a very trustworthy person.He felt that his own family alone could occupy half of this Diagon Alley.

The feasibility report and architectural design drawings were naturally handed over to the architect, Mr. Anderson, as usual.Mr. Anderson has become accustomed to his employer's whimsy from time to time. In his mind, William is probably a psychopath with a weird personality who works in the film industry.

But as long as the sincerity of his employer is enough, let alone he is mentally ill, William is a devil, or those wizards in the novel, Mr. Anderson, who is more short of money than originally expected, will not have any objections.

Some time ago, William learned that although most of these shops in Diagon Alley do not exceed three floors, it is not because the Ministry of Magic, like ordinary people, has very strict regulations on the construction of these old buildings with history. They didn't even allow an air conditioner to be installed.

Diagon Alley remains the way it is now only because it has a really long history and the shopkeepers don't see the need for any major remodeling they have to do - their properties don't use much space and don't Can use the manpower of high-rise buildings.

But William's situation is very different.

He has a lot of house elves, and what William wants to do is not these small retail stores hundreds of years ago, but a format like Harrods.

As long as they entered his shop, there was no need for wizards to leave here and wander around Diagon Alley-unless they were looking for Mr. Florin for a bowl of ice cream or a glass of lemonade.

Lalo, the house-elf, is overjoyed to hear about William's "grand plans."He could swear that he was the happiest house-elf in the whole world, because he always had so much work to keep busy.

"I'll let everyone know!"

Lalo couldn't wait to Apparate back to Hogwarts Castle, and he wanted to share the good news with the other house-elves.

William came to the entrance of Diagon Alley, took out his wand, and lightly pointed at the dilapidated wall, and the backyard of the Leaky Cauldron appeared in front of him.It was Christmas, and in the afternoon, there were not many customers in the bar.

"Tom, open a room, thanks."

He said to the bar owner, who was a little surprised to see William appear.

"The room you stayed in during the summer vacation, your luggage"

Tom took a key from under the bar and handed it to William. Seeing that William didn't bring any large luggage with him, he muttered something.

"My luggage will be delivered by the house elves."

William answered Tom's question.

He'll be in the Leaky Cauldron at the end of Diagon Alley until the Christmas holidays are over.

There is only a wall between here and London, and you can use magic wands unscrupulously.William has set a goal for himself, he will at least make home appliances powered by magic gold before the semester starts.

"But that's all for tomorrow."

William looked at himself in the mirror carefully.He took off the wizard robes he usually wore in the castle, and changed into a dark gray windbreaker, lined with a white striped shirt.

Although he has already lived for more than 30 years in two lifetimes, and he shouldn't have been so nervous in the face of this kind of thing, but William felt that his movements were a little stiff for no reason.

 I've been busy with exhibitions recently, and I'm numb.
