Chapter 350 Ministry of Magic

In general, the gathering place of the Fire Dragon Reserve is quite good, and it is not as chaotic as Chris said.

At least Kyle did not meet any strange people here.

It's just that the shop owners are too wicked, always selling him those expensive and impractical products.

Fortunately, Charlie followed him. As a "local" who has lived here for two years, he is familiar with every store.

Most of the shop owners sighed when they saw him following, and no longer tried to sell Kyle the hot products they said, but moved the real good things from the corner.

In short, Kyle gained a lot from this trip and bought nearly 300 Galleons.

At the end, Charlie was a little scared when he looked at him again.

He knew Kyle was rich, but he didn't expect him to be so rich... He bought things by the box, especially when buying those accessories, he almost bought all the stock in the store.

Even if there is a discount, it can't be like this... More than 300 Galleons, spent without blinking an eye.

Charlie also tried to persuade Kyle to take it easy, and that money shouldn't be wasted like this.

But Kyle shook his head, "You don't understand, Charlie, this may not be enough."

If his box had not been borrowed by Newt to observe Norbert, the Norwegian ridgeback dragon, and the space in the lizard skin bag was limited, Kyle would even want to buy another 200 galleons to take back.

"Not enough?!" Charlie stared, "Do you have more than a hundred friends?"

"If you really want to count... no more, no less." Kyle thought for a while and said, "But I'm not giving it to others.

Many classmates at Hogwarts don't have the opportunity to come here, and they must have never seen such great specialties. It's a rare trip, so I bought it for them."

"Huh?" Charlie didn't quite understand what he meant.

But Kyle didn't explain too much, Weasley was really not very smart in this regard.

"Anyway..." He put away the pile of packages and looked up and said, "I may write to you later. When the time comes, I will have to trouble you to buy some more things for me and send them to Hogwarts."

"That's no problem." Charlie nodded and agreed without thinking, "But it may not be so timely. You know, we only have two days of vacation a month at most."

"That doesn't matter."

Kyle smiled and said, "Besides, I will pay you according to the original price, and you can keep the discounts from the store owner..."

"How can this be!"

Kyle was interrupted before he finished speaking.

Charlie seemed to feel that he was underestimated, and said unhappily, "No matter how much you want, I will help you get a good discount. I still have this face."

"No..." Kyle explained, "I mean, those are your rewards."

"What nonsense are you talking about." Charlie was even more unhappy, "What kind of reward is this for such a small matter? Who do you think I am!"

"That's not what I meant..."

The two argued all the way, but they didn't reach a consensus until they returned to the reserve.

No matter what Kyle said, Charlie said he would help buy things, but he refused to ask for any reward.

Charlie didn't understand Kyle's meaning.

It was nothing more than taking the local specialties to Hogwarts and selling them to other people for a little more money.

He understood the reason, but he just didn't want to take Kyle's money.

Moreover, Charlie didn't think Kyle could sell much... After all, he was not the first person to do this.

There was such a shop in Diagon Alley, which specialized in selling specialties from some well-known places. When he went home last time, he saw Old John's handmade dragon tooth necklace in it.

But the business there... How should I put it? He had never seen more than two people in it... Even at Christmas or before the start of school when there were the most people.

It was not possible for people to open a store in Diagon Alley, let alone in Hogwarts, where students only had a few dollars.

Charlie firmly believed that the things he had bought before would be enough for Kyle to use for several years.

So as soon as he returned to the reserve, he patted Kyle on the shoulder and left without looking back.

Kyle could only smile helplessly.

Forget it, we'll talk about it later.

...

In the last few days of August, the people who came to help began to leave the reserve one after another.

Professor Locknell also left. Before leaving, he invited Kyle to visit Beauxbatons...either to transfer to another school or to go out for fun.

Kyle also readily agreed.

"I'll send you a copy after I finish sorting out the information on the new species." Professor Locknell said, and left through the portkey.

And Edward Lima, before leaving, he also said that he would send Kyle a new version of "The Monster Book of Monsters".

...

Because Chris had to go through another procedure and make the final handover with the Romanian Ministry of Magic, Kyle and Newt stayed here for another day to wait for him.

The end point of the portkey was set at the Ministry of Magic.

When they got here, a haggard wizard hurried over.

"New arrivals must register here and have their belongings checked... Oh, Chris, it's you."

"Arnold?" Chris looked at the newcomer and asked in confusion, "When were you transferred to the immigration office?"

"It's not a transfer."

Arnold said, "I'm here to help."

"Help?" Chris looked around.

There were indeed a lot of people, and there was a long queue in front of the registration desk.

"Are you here to help maintain order?"

"There's nothing we can do about it..." He sighed and said, "You know. Because of Sirius Black's incident, the investigation here has been very strict recently, and there has never been enough manpower."

"Thank you so much for your hard work." Chris said, getting ready to line up.

"Oh...Chris, you don't need to."

Arnold grabbed him, "The portkey shows that you guys came back from the Romanian Ministry of Magic. It's definitely impossible to have anything to do with that guy, right?"

"Of course." Chris nodded, "There were at least a dozen present."

"That's why I said it's not necessary." Arnold scratched a few words in a notebook and muttered in a low voice: "And Mr. Minister seems to have something important to ask you. I don't think he has the patience to wait for a few hours. It was me who was unlucky."

"The minister is looking for me?"

"Yeah, he came here half an hour ago." Arnold raised his head and looked at Kyle and Newt.

Chris quickly said: "This is Mr. Newt Scamander and my son Kyle. We are here together."

"Oh, Mr. Scamander..." Arnold was a little surprised, but he didn't stop moving his hands and continued to write something in the notebook.

"Okay, there are three people in total, registration is complete!"

Soon, he closed the book and said, "Let's go quickly, don't keep our minister waiting."

A few minutes later, Kyle was walking down the corridors of the Ministry of Magic looking confused.

He was just thinking about how to turn the box into Muggle mode, but he didn't expect it to be released so easily, without even having to go through the process?

"Arnold Peacegood, he's a memory writer. We've worked together a few times before."

Chris explained: "And before we set off, the Romanian side should have contacted the Ministry of Magic in advance. In this case, there is generally no need to register again."

Then the three of them turned a corner and arrived at the splendid main hall of the Ministry of Magic.

Because of different schedules, the three of them separated after arriving here.

Chris was going to take the elevator to find Fudge, while Kyle and Newt walked through the crowd and came to two long rows of fireplace passages.

The Ministry of Magic, like Hogwarts, prohibits disembodiment, so they decided to use floo powder to go to the Leaky Cauldron and then go back from there.

The main reason is that Kyle needs to go to Diagon Alley, and Newt just wants to find a place where he can apparate, and he can go anywhere.

Because the Ministry of Magic has many visitors every day, even though there are more than a dozen fireplaces here, they are still not enough. People come out of them one after another, and as soon as the green flames inside are extinguished, they rise again.

After waiting for a few minutes, one of the fireplaces was finally free. Kyle quickly walked over and threw a handful of Floo powder into it.

Kyle walked into the fireplace, and as the scene in front of him changed, he soon went from the lively Ministry of Magic to the equally lively Leaky Cauldron.
