The First Evolution

Fang Linyan stared at Elizabeth for a while:

"No no no, you are too young, and what I am missing now is a veteran with rich experience. If your grandfather is still there, then he must be fine, but you are far from it!"

Elizabeth said unconvinced:

"You have to tell me what's going on!"

Fang Linyan said seriously:

"I need to buy some materials, very rare materials that are not available in the Muggle world, most of them should be related to Fantastic Beasts."

"And the crux of the problem is that I don't know enough about these materials, and there are too many profiteers in this world! In desperation, I was even willing to pay extra gold Galleons to make their profits explode, but these guys are still tireless. You want to piss me off!"

Elizabeth's eyes lit up at once:

"If you're really here for this, then you've found the right person!"

Fang Linyan said suspiciously:

"You don't always feel like you're up to the job?"

Elizabeth proudly said:

"Of course, I was taught by my grandfather since I was a child! When I was eleven years old, I published my first paper in the Magic Herald! Then I was led by Robbie during the winter and summer vacations to live in magical creatures. The various mysteries of the world are running around, so far, as many as eleven new species have been discovered in my hands.”

Fang Linyan said suspiciously:

"Secret realm?"

Elizabeth said:

"Don't you know? All magical creatures, including some famous magical buildings, are built on secret realms attached to the main plane!"

"The magic power in the secret realm is more abundant, and it is more suitable for practicing magic and the survival of magical creatures. Hogwarts is also built in the secret realm, and the platform nine and three-quarters is the entrance to this big secret realm!"

Fang Linyan said oddly:

"Is there such a thing?"

Elizabeth said:

"Think about it, Muggle technology is also very developed now, planes, satellites, nuclear weapons!"

"If there were no secret realms, magical creatures would have been slaughtered long ago, and it would be difficult for even magical buildings to remain mysterious."

Fang Linyan thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.

Elizabeth was about to speak, but a man came in at the door who wanted to buy cakes. She dismissed him in threes and fives, and then pulled down the door and hung a closed sign.

Immediately afterwards, Fang Linyan was asked to wait, and she went upstairs and took down a basin-sized box.

After opening the box, more than a dozen newspapers appeared inside, with papers published by Elizabeth, and there were even moving figures applauding it.

The bottom of the box also has several gold medals from the Society for Conservation of Animals, which were awarded to her for discovering new species.

Fang Linyan glanced at it, suddenly looked at Elizabeth and said:

"You seem to be short of money?"

This is actually not difficult to see. The slightly old clothes on Elizabeth's body, as well as the plastic accessories in her hair, and her cautious look when she is looking for change, are all telling this.

Elizabeth nodded embarrassedly and said:

"Yes, so if I can help you get what you want to buy, can you treat me to an ice cream hot pot? I know that after nine o'clock in the evening, the store will be 20% off."

Fang Linyan noticed that when Elizabeth mentioned the ice cream hot pot, her eyes were glowing, and it seemed that this little girl was still a foodie! He did not answer this question directly, and then went on to say to Elizabeth:

"I think according to your family conditions and personal ability, you shouldn't be short of money."

Elizabeth sighed sadly and said:

"After Robbie died, my parents cut me off financially and told my friends not to support me."

"They want to force me to be a lawyer, but my dream is to help Robbie complete his book, Fantastic Creatures on the Tip of the Tongue,

So I fell out with them, and now I can only support myself by working in a bakery in my classmate's house. "

Fang Linyan nodded slightly, then took out the list of things he wanted to buy:

"Can you help me with the items on this list?"

Elizabeth immediately grabbed the list, looked at it carefully, and said after a while:

"Three! At least three!"

Fang Linyan Road:

"How much will it cost?"

Elizabeth tilted her head and thought:

"At least 80 gold Galleons!"

Fang Linyan simply raised a slap and said:

"My budget is 500 gold Galleons, you help me get three materials, and the rest of the gold Galleons are yours!"

"How much money you can finally add to Robbie's publishing budget depends on your bargaining power."

Elizabeth was immediately stunned:

"You, what did you say? Five hundred gold Galleons?"

Fang Linyan Road:

"Yes, I believe Robbie must have told you about my ancestor, that handsome wrench, he was a very generous person! And his appearance is stronger than his generosity."

"And I'm also a very generous person, so when can we go? I hope to get this done as soon as possible, and maybe I'll treat you to an ice cream fondue!"

Elizabeth said helplessly:

"No, I really don't need so much!"

Fang Linyan waved his hand and said:

"Well then, after you get the money, get Mr. Robbie's last wish and let that book of magical creatures on the tip of your tongue be officially published, and then you can return the remaining money to me."

Elizabeth still looked a little embarrassed, but Fang Linyan said simply:

"When my ancestors and Mr. Robbie were born and died together and fought side by side, they weren't mother-in-law like you. Let's go, can you save me a little time?"

***

one hour later,

Elizabeth took Fang Linyan to a ship on the Thames.

This ship also looks quite old. The huge mottled hull and the big chimney with black smoke are the first impression it gives.

When a thin and timid girl like Elizabeth stood in front of the ship's escalator, she even gave the impression that a weak woman was about to step into the fire pit.

However, it was obviously not the first time that Elizabeth had come to this place. She was like a fawn walking briskly down the narrow passage to the bottom of the cabin.

There was a large group of rude and dirty sailors playing cards, their yellow teeth, the stench from their bodies, their chest hair and tattoos would make any little girl daunted, but Elizabeth took the initiative to greet them:

"Hey, Rotten Teeth, how are you feeling today!"

"Banfan, be careful that your golden tooth is about to fall off."

"Old fur seal, it's time to throw away your jug, and you have to think about your life after going ashore..."

"..."

Surprisingly, these sailors also responded to Elizabeth, some wagging their fingers at her, and some holding up the metal jug they carried with them.

Finally, a fierce looking guy stood in front of Elizabeth. He was blindfolded, and his left hand was a sharp iron hook. Fang Linyan had already tightened his muscles and was ready to stand up.

Because he felt that a robbery was about to happen, and the victim was the buyer he had found with great difficulty.

However, the one-eyed dragon said to Elizabeth in a completely different gentle tone:

"Hey, little bell, you have to stop because the boss is talking about business inside."

Elizabeth raised her eyebrows and said:

"Who told you that I can't go in when the seals are talking about business?"

The one-eyed dragon shrugged and said:

"Of course you can go in, but that's if you're alone, but you brought a stranger with you today!"

Elizabeth said:

"He's no stranger."

The one-eyed dragon sneered:

"Oh, so what is he?"

Elizabeth said:

"He's a big buyer who can make your boss happy."

The one-eyed dragon shook his head and said:

"Sorry, little bell, I didn't receive a notice from the boss saying that strangers can be allowed in, so he can't go in."

At this time, Fang Linyan was a little impatient. He decisively took out the small purse, then reached in and grabbed a handful of gold Galleons from it.

Looking at these golden elves jumping with clanging noises, everyone present was dumbfounded. Of course they knew these hard currencies, especially after Fang Linyan kept grabbing handfuls of golden Galleons, their breathing All began to become cloudy, and obviously some bold ideas had begun to appear in his mind.

But then they heard a peculiar "crunching" sound, and then involuntarily their eyes were fixed on it.

It turned out that Fang Linyan had already put away his purse at this time, he grabbed the doorknob next to him, and the sound came from the doorknob that had begun to distort!

This is no other place, but the lower cabin of the freighter! Because of the problem of sealing, the door handles are very strong. They are forged steel, or that kind of rotary watertight door!

Needless to say, the eyes of all the sailors were almost falling off, and looking at Fang Linyan was already similar to looking at a beast.

Fortunately, this is the magical world, and even Muggles have long been accustomed to beings with supernatural abilities. To Fang Linyan's terrifying performance, the reaction of these guys is to understand and be in awe.

And this reverence is twofold, on the one hand it is based on money, on the other hand it is based on strength!

Then Fang Linyan stared directly at the one-eyed dragon, and walked in with his legs raised.

After walking into the cabin inside, Fang Linyan was sluggish for a while, because he even had the illusion that he was in the vegetable market:

Because of the incomparably large space in front of me, the very dense booths, even the stench in the air, and the humming from a large number of people talking, all of which are similar to the vegetable market.

The difference is that the vegetable market sells vegetables, while the ones sold here are all kinds of smuggled goods and contraband! !

At the top of the center of the market, there is a crooked hangtag with the three words Camton on it, but it can be seen from this tattered hangtag that about one-third of it has disappeared. live.

It is said that when it was complete, the tag said Camton Limited Import \u0026 Export Co., but no one cares about that anymore, so the ghost place is called "Camton Supermarket", or "Camton Supermarket" Dayton Mall".

It's a massive illegal marketplace that moves, which is a secondary reason why it's been able to evade the Ministry of Magic many times over.

As for the main reason, of course, it is because there is an umbrella inside the riddled Ministry of Magic, and the benefits of the umbrella from it are amazing.

At this time, Fang Linyan completely trusted Elizabeth, because at least it proved that Elizabeth's contacts and ideas at this time were correct.

The profiteer bosses in Knockturn Alley and Diagon Alley are doing retail markets, and the place where they buy goods should be in such a wholesale black market! If there is nothing Fang Linyan is looking for here, then Fang Linyan will really accept it.

After taking a few steps inside, Elizabeth stuck out her tongue and said:

"Wow, you looked so fierce just now. It seems that you are quite familiar with this kind of underground market."

Fang Linyan smiled and said:

"Our family is still very powerful in the Himalayas. Grey industries such as smuggling have to pump water for us, otherwise we will not be able to drive at all."

"These people seem ruthless, but they are actually the nature of business people. They are only looking for money. When they see money, they can talk. What I worry about most is not spending money, but spending money and not being able to buy good things. It depends on you. Help me check it out."

"By the way, why do people here call you Little Bell?"

Elizabeth raised her eyebrows and said:

"Because Robbie called me Little Bell since he was a kid."

"When these people are smuggling, it is inevitable that they will encounter some sick and injured precious creatures, and they will come to Robbie to help or tame them, and Robbie will also bring me, so they go back and forth, Of course I'm familiar with this place."

"By the way, then I'll buy what I want by the way? In this case, it's more convenient to buy and lower the price."

Fang Linyan simply waved his hand and said:

"You can spend the budget of 500 Golden Galleons as you like. I only need to get the three materials in the list."

Soon, Elizabeth brought Fang Linyan to a deserted shop. The shop had a big facade, but there were very few goods on the outside.

Seeing this scene, Fang Linyan had a bottom line in his heart. This market is so lively, and the rent of the shop must be very expensive. However, this shop has a big facade, and it sells few goods and is deserted, but it can still survive here.

Then it can only explain one thing: the boss here is either very rich, or the business outside is just a cover, and the big business that really makes money is hidden inside.

After Elizabeth came to the door of the shop, a big lazy man sitting looked at her and said:

"Little Bell, I heard that you were locked up by the family. Last time, a coelacanth was about to die. I couldn't find anyone to ask you for help. Why are you free today?"

Elizabeth snorted coldly:

"Don't you think the Welsh gang are good? What are you doing with me?"

The big man smiled and said:

"Isn't this a better friendship with you?"

Elizabeth said:

"Ha ha......."

After listening to them talk for a while, another question in Fang Linyan's heart was answered, that is why Elizabeth claimed to be very good at magical creatures, but was reduced to going to work in a bakery?

It turned out that she was still a fledgling novice after all. Since her grandfather Robbie passed away, the blank market that was left behind was rushed up and divided up.

By the time Elizabeth realized that her family did not support her and wanted to cut off her financial resources to control herself, half a year had passed.

Fortunately, Robbie's name is big enough, and the things passed on to Elizabeth are also high in gold, so after Elizabeth returned to the market, she also received relevant orders one after another, and began to gradually "recover lost ground".

But her peers are enemies. If she wants to kill her at this time, she must have violated the interests of some people, so a guy named Wales took the lead and played a game for Elizabeth.

How did the little girl know that people's hearts are sinister, she fell into it directly, and the six flute birds who took over the treatment died cleanly!
