Chapter Five Hundred and Sixty Seven Snakes (Seeking Monthly Pass)(1/2)
In the office of ancient magical literature
"I heard you have spent a lot of money recently?"
Valen sat on the small bench and responded weakly.
"Be serious, you have invested in several clubs?"
"Hmph." Valen looked around with his little hand on his back, not looking at Felix in front of him.
"Do you have to spend money to write your autobiography? Find the student who runs the tabloid?" A newspaper trembled in front of Valen.
Valen was dumbfounded. Its little secret seemed to have been dug out?
"It's time," Felix said solemnly. He sat opposite Valen, his palm shaking, and a Valen opened his mouth wide in surprise. It seemed to be a deformed snake?
Valen stared at the little guy in front of him. He looked like a green snake with an outrageous proportion of his head. Since he appeared, he had been swam around it happily. Valen suddenly stretched out his hand, picked up its tail and shook it. The little snake bounced twice in the air like a flexible rope, and opened its mouth and spit out a copper nat.
Valen opened his eyes wide, is this a snake that can spit money?
"This is a piggy bank," said Felix. "Today teach you two new concepts, savings and interest." Valen, who had a lot of fun, stopped and turned to look at him slowly, "Ji?"
"Simply put, it is to save your pocket money and put it in one place, which is here." Felix pointed to the twisted snake. "It was specially prepared for you, and you can put some of the treasure on it."
Essentially, a small snake, an alchemy object, nodded in cooperation with her head, her mouth wide open.
"Ji?" Valen looked at Felix in confusion. Why did he put the money in the little snake? I had the pocket for the money myself.
"That's different," Felix said temptingly, "think about it, the money in your pocket will only decrease, right?" Valen nodded blankly, "That's it," Felix raised his tone to make his tone more convincing, "but if you put money in the snake, the money will become more after a while."
Valen looked at Felix blankly, then looked down at the little snake he was holding. Is this a baby?
"Shi?"
"How much can it be changed? Well... This is the result of a dynamic change. To be specific, it will change with the time and quantity you store. For example, if you stuff a gold gallon into it and ten pieces, the result will definitely be different, but a ten-fold gap. And if you store one day and ten days, the result will be different again, or a ten-fold gap. You can calculate yourself, how many times has it been increased in total?"
Valen lowered his head and waved his fingers. After a while, it raised its head and looked at Felix in confusion.
"One hundred times." Felix revealed the answer.
Valen looked shocked.
"Yes, that's it." Felix said with a smile, "Don't worry, how can I take your money? I just gave you a way to make money. It's a secret... Your money is still yours, it's just transferring from one place to another, and the little snake will still be in your hands. How about it, is it worth it?"
Valen thought for a while, and it seemed like that was the case... it nodded.
"Very good, then let's discuss a specific value," Felix stopped and asked uncertainly, "How much money do you have?"
Valen looked down at his small pocket. He only knew that there were many, but after using some, there were still many.
"I'll count for you." Felix said with a sloppy look. Seeing that the opponent had not responded for a long time, he said to himself, "Save money, interest, money makes money..."
Valen struggled fiercely:
Will the Great Devil cheat its money?
Its pocket money is given by the Great Devil.
The Great Devil is very cunning!
But the little snake is still in his own hands.
The Great Devil is still very cunning.
But if you put it in a snake, you will get more money...
Valen almost didn't realize that the sky was getting darker, and he had been in a state of trouble for a long time. Finally, he closed his eyes and nodded solemnly.
"Crazy."
"Crazy."
"Crazy."
Valen looked at his small pocket and felt as if he was penniless. He looked at the small pile of golden Gallons on the ground, and the feeling of happiness came back.
"In terms of conversion, there are a total of 2,007 gold gallons." Felix said with a look of surprise, "Let's do this, let's save two thousand gold gallons and go in, how about it?"
Valen looked at him silently. It wanted to hit someone.
"It's very cost-effective. I'll calculate it for you. It involves very complex mathematical formulas... Haven't you learned how to calculate it yet? Ah, it's a pity."
It was completely dark, and Valen pinched the number formula that occupied most of the parchment paper, and felt confused. "Swish!" A small pile of Jialong on the ground was swallowed by the little snake with bloody mouths.
"Shi!!!"
Valen grabbed the snake's neck and shook it hard, and it regretted it! But it was too late. The snake's piggy bank burped and opened its mouth and spit out seven gold coins.
Valen looked at the money on the ground, picked it up one by one, and stuffed it into his small pocket pitifully.
"It is better to put the piggy bank in the little snake than to put it in..."
"Shi!"
Valen hugged the little snake tightly, and the shiny black hair on his body exploded.
"Your ones are all yours," Felix said with a smile. "It's only the last step away. Let's set a date. If we take it out before that time, we won't get the extra Gallon."
Valen stretched out his hand and trembled with him.
The next day, Valen woke up from the cradle bed, and looked at the ceiling in a daze. He was stunned for two seconds. He subconsciously touched his small pocket. He screamed, jumped up from the bed, looked around, and finally found the greedy snake that had eaten its treasure in a corner of the cradle bed.
Valen breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his small shoulders.
It slipped out of the bedroom with the little snake piggy bank and looked around in the office for a while. Huh? Is the Great Demon not at home? It walked to the sofa, jumped hard, jumped to the Great Demon's favorite position, and began to roll on it. After rolling with satisfaction for two minutes, it suddenly became worried and looked at the bottom of the sofa in fear.
The little snake coiled itself in a circle and lazily spitted out the letter.
Valen felt relieved. Today is the weekend, and it probably visited the great devil. It took out its magic painting and pointed at it. The protagonist of the game, Xiaoxiao, had gathered four gems, each of which could release powerful ancient magic. At Valen's strong request, Xiaoxiao was wearing a handsome cloak.
But today's game seems to be less attractive. Valen always checks whether the greedy snake is still there. This greedy snake always loves to run around. According to the great devil, it is "doing irregular movements around you." Valen doesn't understand it very much, and it roughly means that it won't run too far.
But when the greedy snake disappeared from its sight, Valen still felt panic. Every time it jumped off the sofa without getting tired of it, pulling out the greedy snake hidden in the corner and put it in front of it.
At noon, Valen staggered and prepared to go out. After thinking about it, he brought the greedy snake with him. He must not let it leave his sight.
It hid the greedy snake under its little yellow hat and wandered around the castle. On the way, it met Malfalda, who was selling tabloids and searching for materials. It looked at its small pocket, and seven Gallons were lying empty inside, which made it sad to smell.
Valen felt the hardships of life, and finally it passed by Marfalda. Valen clenched his fists, and he thought that it would not buy newspapers before saving enough money again, and it could take advantage of the newspaper to read.
After searching, it found an acquaintance.
"Shi!"
Astoria Greengras lowered his head and saw Valen saying hello friendly. The two got together and started reading the newspaper. Valen finished reading the page quickly and was anxious to turn the page. It squinted his eyes, and the defeated man read the words a bit slow...
Forget it, be considerate ~
"Don't worry," Astoria said seriously, "You see, the Ministry of Magic has said that there are twelve people coming to the Ministry of Magic. They have to stay in school for two full weeks. The work includes testing the results of the Phantom Transformation Training and assisting the special training. It shows that the Ministry of Magic attaches great importance to students' safety. Look, this is what is analyzed."
Valen tilted his head to look at her, and Astoria was a little puzzled.
Valen took out a piece of parchment from his little pocket and handed it to her quietly. "What is this? Well, do you want me to calculate this formula? Let me see, it won't hurt me..." Astoria looked down at the dense mathematical formula, and his eyes were circled.
"It's a bit difficult... It's not my fault. I didn't choose to make a calculation and divination."
Although he didn't get the answer, Valen finally felt relieved. It was not that he was not smart enough, but that the great devil was forced to do so. Separated from Astoria, it happily walked with a snake. There was a large circle of people in the hall. Felch blocked the door with great momentum, holding a magic wand in his hand.
Harry, Ron and Hermione stood in the crowd watching the fun.
"What grade is inside?" asked a new student.
"Seventh grade." Ron said, "They learned Phantom Transformation in the sixth grade of school year. This time it was an opportunity for them to get the certificate in advance." He finally revealed his true intentions. "You said that if you are not old enough, you can master Phantom Transformation. Is it possible to get the certificate?"
Several students around him looked at him with awe.
“I think it’s hard,” Hermione analyzed, “According to regulations, adulthood must be a man.”
"But now it's a special situation, right?" Harry asked, and he was quite looking forward to it, "so that we don't have to take a carriage to Hogsmeade." And it was much more convenient to look at Glopp. He glanced at Hermione, and Hermione thought of this.
The three of them still couldn't escape Hagrid's kind invitation and went to Glopp's temporary residence one weekend. The three of them were ready to fight and practiced various defensive spells again before going there. The scene they saw was shocked. Glopp sat on the haystack, holding half-eating huge pumpkin in one hand and skillfully spinning the buttons of the magic projector with the other hand. They couldn't believe that they had watched half an episode of the Lion King and the second event of the Championship in a cave.
Glopp was so excited when he saw Harry, he yelled at him. They guessed for a long time based on the pictures on the magic projector, and finally realized that he actually wanted to see Harry's patron curse.
Hagrid also bought a magic radio as a pastime. When he came out of the cave, Ron said in disbelief: "Am I hit the confusion spell? I actually heard 'a pot of hot love' in the cave, and there were also a pair of feet that were more than twenty inches tall and beat!"
"Don't worry, your brain is safe." Hermione said, she didn't want to come, but now she felt it's worth it. "We can have a little bit of confidence in Hagrid's dream, are we? Are we ready for a sixteen-foot ranger?"
Harry felt that he could find an opportunity to persuade Hagrid so that he would not have to worry. It would be fine to spend two more years... Unfortunately, he didn't get the opportunity. Snape has become more serious recently and has been looking for him. He is not sure if it was because Snape saw through his ideas. Last school year, Professor Hagrid accidentally mentioned that Snape was a master of soul-catching thoughts.
In the auditorium, Valen walked through his feet and slipped in through the door. Felch was about to stop him, but after seeing that it was Valen, his wrinkled old face immediately smiled brightly. Valen gave Mrs. Loris a dried fish and slipped into the auditorium.
"Oh my goodness, it's so skillful." Navi said in admiration.
At this moment, a harsh scream of pinching his throat came from inside. The students in the hall were stunned for a few seconds, and a short and fat woman walked out.
"It's Umbridge." Harry said immediately. He had seen this woman look arrogant and also see her being carried out of school in a mess. But he didn't expect to see this woman again in school. He thought Umbridge was fired by the Ministry of Magic as Foggy fell.
"She has learned to keep a low profile," said Ron. Harry knew what he meant. Umbridge was wearing a tightly-tight bright green wizard robe. Although it was conspicuous, it was very low profile compared to the dazzling pink before.
"Felch, I just saw a big mouse," Umbridge said in his throat.
"Its name is Valen, it is a pet raised by Professor Heip, and it is not a mouse, it is a sniffer." Felch said dissatisfied.
Umbridge's body stiffened. She noticed Felch's dissatisfied attitude, and a sweet smile immediately piled up on her loose wide chin, "So that's the case. The little guy looks quite cute. Do you like cats too? Mr. Felch? I like cats, I love them so much."
