Harry Potter: This senior is pretty strong

"Wow, I didn't expect you to be a small-time millionaire."

After Vault 712 was opened, Hagrid couldn't help but utter this remark.

1000 Galleons was a huge sum of money for Hagrid, who spent all his money on Fantastic Beasts.

Qin Yu touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed by Haig's words, but he couldn't explain too much to him, since he himself couldn't explain where the money came from.

After making a remark, Hagrid didn't say anything more and let Qin Yu go and get the money himself. He then took the opportunity to quietly ask the vault keeper about the situation of the vault next door, number 713.

After receiving answers like "impregnable and foolproof," Hagrid repeatedly said "That's good," and then looked much more relieved.

Qin Yu glanced at the vault next to him, shrugged, and thought to himself that he shouldn't touch the things inside, as it could easily get him into trouble. He should try to stay away from it.

……

After exchanging the pounds and withdrawing some more money, Qin Yu and his companion left Gringotts.

However, as soon as they stepped out of Gringotts, someone greeted Hagrid.

"Hi, Hagrid, long time no see!" the man said warmly.

“Bill Weasley? What are you doing here? I heard you went to work in Egypt.” Hagrid looked at the man with some surprise.

“I do work in Egypt, but recently a batch of uncursed treasure was being transported back to Gringotts for safekeeping, so I came along with the escort team. Hehe, just taking a trip home while I was at it,” Bill Weasley said with a laugh.

"Oh, so you were using your position for personal gain," Hagrid teased.

"There's nothing I can do. There are no summer vacations after I start working, so I can only take this opportunity to come back," Bill said helplessly, shrugging his shoulders.

"Oh, by the way, let me introduce you. This is Qin Yu, a first-year student who just enrolled this year." Hagrid didn't forget to introduce the little guy next to him to Bill.

"Hello Qin Yu, I'm Bill Weasley, also a student at Hogwarts, but I graduated a year ago," Bill greeted Qin Yu.

"Hello, senior Bill, it's nice to meet you." Qin Yu greeted him with a smile.

Qin Yu certainly knew him; he was the eldest son of the Weasleys and Ron's older brother. He must have gone to Egypt last year to work as a treasure unraveler after graduating. Qin Yu, like Hagrid, was somewhat surprised to meet him here.

“What a polite junior, unlike my two twin brothers who are always causing trouble… Qin, if you encounter two mischievous twins at Hogwarts, be sure to report them to the teacher. I hope the teacher can discipline them properly,” Bill said to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu could only chuckle and gloss over his words about sacrificing family for the greater good, thinking to himself, "The Weasleys are indeed a family of loving fathers and filial sons, and brothers who are friendly and respectful to each other."

"I have to go deliver something and go home to see Ron and Ginny," Bill was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He took out a small object about the size of his palm and said to Qin Yu, "Junior Qin, here's a little gift for you. This is a small pyramid I made. Consider it a small gift."

"Oh? This looks very valuable, how could I possibly accept it..." Qin Yu quickly said.

“It’s alright, it’s just a little gadget I made when I was bored in Egypt. It’s not worth much. My younger siblings each have one… I’ll tell you a little secret: I used an ancient spell that I deciphered in the pyramids. If you put a cherry or something in it, it can keep it fresh for a long time!” Bill said mysteriously.

To be honest, Qin Yu was quite tempted when he saw this little item. After all, he had never received any gifts from the magical world before. Even though Bill said that this thing was not worth much money, it was still novel enough for Qin Yu.

"Take it quickly." Bill said, shoving the small pyramid directly into Qin Yu's hand, then waved and said, "See you again sometime, Qin! Goodbye Hagrid!"

"Thank you, senior Bill. See you again sometime!" Qin Yu waved goodbye to him.

After saying goodbye to the two men, Bill happily went into Gringotts to hand over the items.

Looking at the pyramid in his hand, Qin Yu thought to himself, "I might as well take it. At worst, I'll just take care of my silly junior, Ron, in the future."

Yes, according to the enrollment time, Ron is indeed Qin Yu's junior.

……

As Qin Yu left Gringotts and passed by the Owl Shop, he remembered that he needed to write a letter to Hermione.

Although I haven't officially enrolled yet, I can still get the messenger sorted out first!

He saw on the sign at the entrance that it listed: Grey Wood Owl, Singing Horned Owl, Barn Owl, Brown Owl, Snowy Owl...

Qin Yu thought to himself that these were all protected animals in the Muggle world, and being a postman was a bit of a luxury!

He walked around the room and chose the snowy owl without hesitation; it was indeed the most beautiful one there.

However, upon seeing the price of 18 Galleons, Qin Yu felt a sudden pang of pain. At the current exchange rate, that was equivalent to 90 pounds!

However, upon further reflection, the price, when averaged out over each day, doesn't seem too expensive; it can be considered a "prepaid phone bill."

So Qin Yu took out 18 Galleons from his purse, lined them up, and placed them on the counter. Then he took the beautiful owl from the shopkeeper.

When Hagrid saw him holding the snowy owl, he praised, "This is a rather rare species. You have a really good eye!"

Qin Yu nodded in agreement. At this moment, the owl was already perched on Qin Yu's arm, staring at him with its round eyes. Looking at the cute little creature on his arm, he said, "From now on, you'll be called Trigg!"

"Hmm, it's a good name." Hagrid's English was so-so, but he thought the name sounded nice.

Carrying a cage containing owls, Qin Yu, led by Hagrid, went to Flourish and Blotts to buy textbooks.

Compared to the expensive owls, these textbooks were much more affordable. First-grade textbooks were basically 1 Gallon each, and Qin Yu only paid a dozen Gallons to buy all the books on the list. These included "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration", "Dark Power: Self-Defense Guide", "A Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi", "Standard Spells - Beginner", and so on, covering all the subjects he would be learning in first grade.

The item was a bit heavy, and Hagrid kindly helped Qin Yu carry it, as he was much stronger than the little Qin Yu.

As they continued walking, Qin Yu wanted to linger in front of each shop to see what they sold. Hagrid, standing beside him, could only pat him on the shoulder helplessly and say, "Qin, we need to hurry to Ollivander's Wand Shop. You need to buy a good wand. There's too much to see in Diagon Alley. I'll take you there another time."

"Okay, I'll definitely come again if I have the chance. I feel like there are business opportunities everywhere here," Qin Yu said with emotion.

When the little boy mentioned the business opportunity, the bearded Hagrid couldn't help but curl his lip in disapproval. He thought the people here were all cunning, and he had to spend a lot of money every time he came here, which made his already meager situation even worse.

So he had to leave quickly today and couldn't stay too long, because he was afraid that if he stayed too long, he would see some animals that he wanted to buy.

"Waaah—" "Waaah—" "Waaah—"

As Hagrid walked along, he suddenly heard three canine barks.

His eyes lit up, and he immediately stopped and listened attentively.

His intuition told him that it was the cry of a rare and magical creature.

Out of curiosity, he couldn't help but walk in the direction of the sound, completely forgetting the self-admonition he had just given himself.

"Hagrid, what do you think about me opening a shop here? Do I need a business license? By the way, Hagrid, since you have so many pets, could you perhaps use... wait, where are they?"

Qin Yu was walking and talking when he looked back and found that Hagrid was nowhere to be seen.

What happened to being in a hurry? Where did he go?

Qin Yu was utterly exasperated.
