Chapter 3 Welcome to Diagon Alley!

The broken cauldron bar is indeed as small and broken as the legendary one. When the butler came over with the children led by Liu Jiecao, he found that there was no parking space here and had to stop outside.

In the world of Harry Potter, the gathering places of wizards are often in remote places, and unless necessary, they are rarely in places with a large population.

Therefore, Liu Jiecao didn't care about the lack of parking spaces at all. Maybe he had thought of it a long time ago.

After all, when a real wizard comes here, he would rather walk than take a car than take a car. At most, he either uses Floor Network or rides in a carriage. It is completely conceivable how powerful the wizards are in Muggle supplies. Although in the same world, they are already like two worlds.

Coming in a car has attracted attention, not to mention that this is a van, which has been ahead of this era for many years. You should know that the vehicles of this era are still a bit "old".

However, when Liu Jiecao and others waited at the gate of the Broken Cauldron Bar for the butler to park the vehicle before returning, they entered the Broken Cauldron Bar together.

They ignored the other people's sight and did not stop here. They directly crossed the Burnt Cauldron Bar and headed directly to Diagon Alley.

In fact, most people choose this way, and they rarely stay in this shabby tattered cauldron bar. This period of time, before school starts, is often the peak period when students are accompanied by their parents to buy school supplies. Where does the idleness come from to make people stay?

It is even more impossible for a real pure-blooded wizard to come to the Bouke Bar. They all use Floor Net directly. Staying in the Bouke Bar is equivalent to reducing their identity.

Most of the people who come here are basically Muggle parents and Muggle wizards. Therefore, Liu Jiecao and his group dressed in styles that are incompatible with other people, and they are far less likely to be able to take a car to attract attention.

Perhaps in the eyes of these wizards, Liu Jiecao and others were ahead of the outside world for many years. In their opinion, there was no difference between them and other Muggles' clothes.

But don’t think that Liu Jiecao is so ostentatious. He is really not used to using things that are too backward. He is not too lazy even in the world of "The Legend of Jin Yong" because he is not used to a world without technology.

The martial arts world is actually of the same nature. If there is water and electricity there, you can use computers and the Internet to ensure that Liu Jiecao will no longer stay in his fantasy world.

After leaving the eyes of everyone in the Broken Cauldron Bar, Gu Yueling regained her vibrantly and said, "Let me do it. I know how to open the passage."

"Isn't it just counting three pieces on the trash can and counting two pieces horizontally? I know, too." Yang Yeji murmured in a low voice.

Liu Jiecao couldn't help but roll his eyes, because a few of these guys from Earth only remember the rough plot of "Harry Potter", so he mentioned some details on the road, but he didn't expect that these guys would be able to sell them quickly.

As Gu Yueling took action and opened the passage, Diagon Alley finally appeared in front of everyone.

It was really lively, and there were all kinds of strange wizards here, so the costumes of the group no longer seemed completely strange.

At the first moment, the butler went out to find out the path of Gulinge Bank. Then everyone set out to Gulinge Bank.

If you want to buy something, you must exchange it for the usual coins of the wizards, which are the so-called Jin Jialong, Silver Sike and Copper Nath.

1 gold gallon = 17 silver xike

1 silver shike = 29 copper nat

The value of a Gallon is about 5 pounds, which is US$7.33. It is also equivalent to RMB 51.3.

It would be a real joke to talk to Liu Jiecao about money. If it weren't for the inconvenience to bring the cash that he brought out, Liu Jiecao had no choice but to bring the gold prepared in advance. Otherwise, there would be no need to be such a trouble.

The wizarding world is too closed, otherwise it would be easy to solve by direct bank transfer, but it becomes even more troublesome here.

Why not just get Jin Jialong, Yin Xike and Tong Nath? Instead of making it so troublesome?

This is still an old problem. Liu Jiecao doesn't want to interfere too much in the plot. The wizarding world belongs to the main plot world and is also a mysterious world. The coins inside are vaguely filled with magic, so they cannot be easily imitated.

If you imitate these coins, it will take more power to the world, and there is no need or meaning at all.

Like in the past, even though the Book of Creation vaguely controls this fantasy world, the principle of equivalent exchange has not changed, and consuming the power of the world is the price.

The non-mysterious Muggle world that creates almost countless bank deposits is nothing more than changing the recorded data in the bank, and is completely unequal to the creation of new Jin Jialong, Silver Sike and Copper Nath directly in the wizarding world, which are essentially magic-imposed coins.

The former costs are negligible, while the latter costs a lot.

The number of gold bars that Liu Jiecao brought was not large, which was also valuable. Therefore, in addition to exchange for a large amount of Jin Jialong used to purchase school supplies, he could also save another amount of money and store it in Gulinge Bank.

There is no need to put a lot of money on it. It is really inconvenient to carry it, so the money was still stored in Gulinge Bank.

The only thing that makes this bank uncomfortable is that it is different from the outside world's banks. It requires additional storage fees to save money here. If it weren't for Liu Jiecao who had almost endless money, it was just a fantasy world, he would never have saved money in a black-hearted bank like Gringott Bank.

In fact, they are ready to wait for a while to use up their money before coming back to get a new batch. After all, they want to buy a lot of things, and this time they may not be able to buy them completely.

In addition to school supplies, they also have what they want. The magicality of such things in the magic world is far beyond that most of them often stayed in "The Legend of Jin Yong" before.

Even though he was born in the world of "Full-time Hunter", he has not been in contact with the lyrics for a long time and has never entered a more magical place like the Island of Greedy, so he is the one with the most interest among the people.

As an appraiser, the immortal sect is curious about the things these wizards use, and does not need Liu Jiecao to deliberately guide him. This immortal sect is probably thinking about studying it.

After getting the money, everyone couldn't help but take out the Hogwarts admission notice they carried with them, which included a list of things they needed to buy.

When the children saw it, the Immortal Sect first suggested: "Let's buy a magic wand first."

When others thought about it, they thought this was correct. Judging from some common sense of wizards that Liu Jiecao had talked about before, the magic wand was the first thing that wizards need to consider.

Most wizards buy their first wand before they enter school at the age of eleven.

Generally, wizards will not change their wands at will unless necessary. For conservative wizards, a wand will basically be used for a lifetime.

Most of the wands of British wizards were purchased at the Ollivander Wand Store in Diagon Alley. There they could test different wands until they found the one that suits them, or chose their own.

It should be noted that the wand is chosen as the wizard, not the wizard is chosen as the wand.

Each wand is unique. If you use a wand that does not belong to you, the effect of the magic will be greatly reduced and you cannot even cast spells at all. Unless you have high mana power or are inseparable from the master of the wand.

Such an important magic wand should really be the first to choose.

So everyone set out toward the Ollivander Wand Shop.

After coming to the Ollivander Wand Shop, the advertisement here left a deep impression on everyone - the power of the wand is beyond your imagination, and Ollivander's name is the guarantee of the quality of the wand.

The small shop was filled with magic wands from the ground to the top, and I wondered how many thousands or tens of thousands were there. I just felt that the wands that had accumulated to the roof seemed to be falling down to everyone.

All the children opened their eyes and looked at the mysterious wands of the Ollivander Wand Shop with curious eyes.

"Welcome, welcome to Ollivander's wand shop." A gentle voice suddenly sounded in his ears, and a little old man walked out.

This old man is Ollivander, one of the three major wand makers in Europe. He is known as the best wand maker in the world and the owner of Ollivander's wand shop.

According to Liu Jiecao's instructions, the housekeeper said: "Hello, Mr. Olivande. Give each of these children a magic wand, thank you."

Ollivand nodded with a smile, looked at the children and asked, "Who are you going first?"
