Kate Bleeds Money

Speechless, utterly speechless.

Ryan never expected to find his own property in Knockturn Alley.

And it even dragged down one of their own people— Kate.

These wands are actually alchemical creations of Ryan.

Its power is equivalent to that of the original wand—that is, wand wood.

The original wand, or the earliest wand, did not have a core.

The earliest wandmakers discovered that a small percentage of trees could produce wood with good magical adaptability (just as only a small percentage of humans possess magic).

Initially, the ability to identify wood suitable for making primitive wands required years of experience; back then, wandmakers were more interested in finding wand wood.

As for making a wand, there's absolutely no need to put in any extra effort; just pick it up and use it, right?

Therefore, most wizards at that time used individual branches for their own purposes.

Moreover, the more primitive and uncarved the wood, the more powerful it is believed to be.

Some ancestors of modern wandmakers did not think so, but due to the rarity of wand wood, they did not have the courage to experiment.

But a discovery changed everything.

Ollivander's ancestors discovered that Bowtruckle.

As a result, the appearance of the wand began to change, developing in a more refined and beautiful direction, no longer just snapped off and used.

Because Ollivander's discovery made wand wood no longer rare, and a wizard carving and polishing the wood in his hand to make his wand look better proved that the appearance of wand wood does not affect its power.

As time went on, wizards learned to stuff powerful magical substances into the wood.

As for why wood can complement magical substances, that is the most precious core secret of Wandlore, which wizards are not allowed to reveal to other races.

The power of the wands made by Ryan is therefore unimaginable. He used wand wood, rare alchemical materials, and even the most expensive core, to create wands with the power of wand wood that had just been broken off a tree.

Their designs are cool, inspired by the wands from the Harry Potter dress-up game in Ryan's previous life.

However, its power was too weak for Ryan to bear, and he was too embarrassed to ruin the reputation of his Skywalker Alchemy Workshop.

They then handed it over to some of the Smith family's long-time employees to sell.

You get a high commission for every single one you sell.

But this also means that these wands are not cheap.

So far, only one of these fakes has been sold: a cool-looking wand called the Uncommon Guide Elderwood, which glows with a deathly green light.

That sucker was none other than Malfoy.

However, it wasn't Draco Malfoy.

To Ryan's surprise, it was Lucius Malfoy.

All I can say is that this wand, which exuded a strong aura of Dark Magic, strongly attracted him.

A man is a boy until he dies.

Ryan was overjoyed about it all day.

But now, Ryan is not happy at all.

"Kate, calm down, these are just for show," Ryan couldn't help but think to himself.

"What's wrong with these being showy?" Kate thought to herself, while also considering that she was now a large figure in a black robe, and asked the stall owner with feigned authority, "Hey! How much are these wands?"

The old man shrank back, but remembering how that sucker had been defeated in the same way not long ago, he regained his confidence. "These—wands, hmm, 100 Galleons each."

"100!" Kate's eyes widened.

Although she knew that Ryan was not short of money now, the temptation of such a high price still awakened her bargaining instincts. "Ollivander's wands only cost 10 Galleon at most. You know, he is the best wand maker in Britain!"

"Ollivander?" The old man, whose appearance was deliberately unkempt, sneered. "Our wands are infused with many rare metals and advanced magical effects."

"How can Ollivander's affordable products compare to mine?"

"Moreover, Ollivander's wand, without any discount, costs around 50 Galleons." Kate frowned. She had never heard of any subsidy. She looked at Ryan, who immediately understood Kate's doubts Ryan to indicate that the old man was right.

"What other advantages do they have?"

"I mean, aside from appearance." Kate noticed something from the sparse crowd around the stall.

One hundred Galleons is probably nothing to the consumers here, especially considering the abundance of rare and exotic Potions ingredients. They didn't even blink when they bought them.

This wand must have a flaw.

The old man's deeply lined face twitched slightly. "The power of the spells this wand can unleash depends more on its master. Only highly skilled wizards can wield them. In the hands of ordinary wizards, they are no more powerful than wooden sticks."

"What? Does the guest consider himself an ordinary wizard?" the old man said.

Ryan didn't know whether he should be happy about it.

In his view, his employee had already mastered the trick to selling these wands.

As a salesperson, the most important things are confidence and the ability to speak the truth, even if it's only partially true.

And the lucky Lucius Malfoy had already given him all of this.

Presumably, even without Ryan and his team, he would still close another deal in the coming days.

"Hmm! I'm definitely very clever."

"What's this one called, and how much does it cost?" Kate asked, feigning seriousness, pointing to a wand with a hollowed-out sphere at the top, inside which blue sparks of Spark flickered.

"Incredible, truly incredible, sir! This is my family's trump card. It's incredibly sturdy, made of Thunderbird Feather, thirteen and a half inches long, and of pine wood. As for its name, I suppose you can call it Thunder Feather Looping Pine." The old man exclaimed in admiration, clapping his hands exaggeratedly.

Penelope, who was standing to the side, wanted to say something, but seeing the slight excitement in Kate's body language, she remained silent.

"Well, it's not that much money. Over the years, Kate and I have earned quite a bit of money by drawing and doing voice acting for Ryan. Even if this wand isn't used, it can still be used as a candle in the dark," Penelope thought.

"Is this one also 100 Galleons?" Kate asked casually.

"If you really want it, I can give you a discount, because you have such good taste," the old man flattered.

"A discount?" Kate was overjoyed. So much so that she forgot she was still a burly man and stomped her feet with excitement like a little girl.

"Huh? This wand can be discounted? How come I, the boss, didn't know?" Ryan thought in surprise.

So much so that Ryan subconsciously looked at himself, wondering if his disguise magic had been exposed, allowing the old man to discover that he was his boss.

"99 Galleons, and I'll give you a 1 Galleon wand cover," the old man said.

Even Kate was stunned for a moment before gritting her teeth and saying, "Fine, I'll buy it!"
