Harry Potter's Catastrophe - Chapter 487
c487 :Magical Grass Plant Shop
The shop owner pushed up his glasses, skillfully took off the gold galleons label, and looked at Carney calmly.
“It’s not for sale now.”
“…”
“Imperius and Out of Body!” Carney skillfully used the Imperius Curse to control the store owner, “Did I buy this owl with Galleons?”
“Okay, of course it’s no problem.” The shop owner said with a dull smile. He had already obeyed Carney’s orders. As he said, he would not hesitate to let him die.
Carney threw five gold galleons on the table and walked out of the market with the owl. The owl was small and had just grown up.
The feathers around the owl’s eyes are radiating, and the fine feathers are arranged to form a face, which looks like a cat. The feathers all over its body are mostly brown with scattered fine spots, dense and soft. The head is large and wide, the beak is short, the sides are flat and strong, and the tip is The hook is curved, and there is no wax film at the base of the mouth.
Most of the owl’s eyes are yellow with black pupils. These are just red-orange eyes with a slightly fierce look.
“What should I call you?” Carney held his chin and thought. It was really difficult for him to think of a name. “Are you a male or a female?”
Carney raised the cage and stared at the owl’s crotch. It was so furry that it was impossible to tell its gender.
“I’ll ask Hagrid when I go back to school. He should be able to tell their gender from other places.” Carney looked at the owl and looked into its big, smart eyes for a few seconds.
“Talk later.”
This time he came out not only to replenish the owls that delivered the mail, but also to plant some herbs on the lawn and backyard of his home, planting them as he pleased.
Hagrid, the herbalist shop, once said that the magical herb shop has many practice plants suitable for little wizards to grow.
Following the route Hagrid told him, Carney found this shop on the corner of the street. The wooden sign had five crooked words engraved on it – Magic Grass Plant Shop.
Carney walked in with the birdcage in hand. In the center of the store was a large table filled with various plants, each with its own characteristics and strange appearance, and there were also some beautiful plants.
In an inconspicuous corner on the side is the counter, with a small door behind it. When the door opens, a skinny old man with a gray goatee comes out.
“What do you want? Guest.”
“Fragrant grass, ground flowers, rock plants, fragrant berries, and apple trees. I need their seeds. It’s best if the apple trees have saplings.” Some of the plants Carney chose are from the wizarding world, but It won’t be particularly noticeable to Muggles.
“Of course there is, is it an apple tree like a stick tree?” the old man asked.
“That’s right, are there any herbal seeds, healing grass, cooling flower, and rhododendron?” Carney added, these are some common medicinal plants used to make therapeutic potions.
“Seeds or potted plants?” The boss held out a small sapling. The flowerpot was more than ten inches large.
“They are all seeds, twenty of each kind.” Carney thought that he might not be able to plant them yet. If he bought less, he would have to come again, so he might as well buy more.
“Do you need a pot? If you buy so many things, I will make an exception and sell you our special fertilizer to ensure that you can plant it, which will greatly increase the germination rate and survival rate.” The store owner pulled out a bag of black material from under the table and smelled it. To extremely large.
“No, just seeds, thank you.” Carney didn’t need these fertilizers, he directly used magic to promote them.
The store owner made a “you’ll regret it” expression and started to take the goods. The seeds were as big as soybeans. The store owner took them one by one carefully, for fear of giving too much to Canni.
Carney watched him take it sternly, for fear that he would take less.
He weighed each strip of seeds and then began to calculate and summarize the holidays.
“A total of…six gold galleons and seven silver koshi.”
This was as much as the price of a magic wand, and it was a bit ridiculously expensive, but Carney paid it obediently.
Collecting the seeds, he held the tree pot in one hand and the birdcage in the other and passed through the connecting wall of the Leaky Cauldron. After making sure that no one was there, he apparated back home.
Boom, boom, boom!
“Kani! The hot dogs are getting cold.” My mother knocked on the door. She had called her once ten minutes ago.
“I’ll be there soon.” Carney saw Xiao Hei waiting expectantly by the door, and quickly pulled her away. She seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
“You will scare mom, go to bed.” Carney whispered, completely ignoring Xiao Hei’s pleading eyes, she could only watch them eat every day.
Mother did not allow the food on the dining table to be brought into the room. They could only finish the meal at the dining table. Naturally, it was impossible for Carney to bring a plate of meat back to the room for Xiao Hei. He also forgot to buy it when he went out this time.
“Take a good look at the tree and your new friend.” Carney put the owl cage and the apple tree on the ground. Xiao Hei’s attention was immediately attracted by the owl’s eyes.
Xiao Hei showed a ferocious expression, his eyes turned cold and cruel, his fingers curled into claws, and he slowly approached the owl.
“Hey, can you be normal?” Carney was about to go downstairs and saw Xiao Hei acting like this. He immediately thought she was possessed and slapped her forehead with one hand.
“Isn’t it enough for me? Do you want to buy other pets? Am I not good enough?” Xiao Hei said aggrievedly.
“If you can fly, of course I don’t need an owl. Owls are necessary for wizards. If you want to travel between home and school, I don’t mind waiting a few more days.”
“Yini can learn to fly, soar in the clouds and mist, and travel thousands of miles in a day.” Xiao Hei puffed up his face.
“I can’t bear to have you wading through mountains and rivers outside, dragging things and carrying goods. You are keeping me close to protect me. It is just a delivery person.” Carney made it clear, rubbing his palm on the little black head to calm her down.
“Then Yi Ni, please spare her life, but she is not allowed to stand on the master’s shoulders. Any place on the master’s body that can stand, sit, lie or lie down is Yi Ni’s place.” Xiao Hei placed the owl cage away from the window. Far.
Seeing that they were getting along peacefully, Carney went downstairs with confidence. His mother heated up the hot dogs, and Carney hurriedly finished them and ran back upstairs.
Carney ran back to the room and saw that Xiao Hei had taken the owl out and was combing its feathers with his hands. It looked like they were getting along well with each other.
Thank God Blackie didn’t tear it in half or break its neck or anything, or worse, swallow it alive.
“You have to put the owl in the cage for a few days, and then you can release it after you get to know the owner.” Carney put the owl back into the cage, picked up the apple tree, and went downstairs with Xiao Hei.
My mother was not downstairs, she had gone back to her room to take a nap.
Seeing Xiao Hei’s delighted expression, Carney pulled her up to the back door. All the flower pots in the backyard had to be transplanted, and here he planned to plant all the seeds and apple trees.
“Hurry up, we have to pull them all up and turn over the soil from here to there.” Carney handed the small shovel only to Xiao Hei’s hand.
“Now, let’s start working. It’s best to be quiet.” My father’s room did not have a window to the backyard, so they could work in a big way.
