Chapter 29 Lolita who loves to learn (repair)

Perhaps because it was too early, there were no other customers in Mrs. Mojin's robe store.

As soon as Elena entered the door, she came towards her, a short, fat and smiling witch in purple clothes, the mistress of this shop, Mrs. Mojin.

"Is Hogwarts' freshman, my dear?"

Before Elena could speak, Mrs. Mojin said with a smile.

The witch looked up at the figure who had temporarily left outside the door, "Dumbledore? It's rare. Since he no longer served as a transforming teacher, he has rarely seen him bring his students to Diagon Alley in person."

Withdrew his gaze, Mrs. Mojin looked at the little silver-haired girl standing in front of her curiously, and smiled slightly, "Come on, follow me to the back of the store to try out the clothes first."

The space behind the robe store is very large, much spacious than what you see on the street. Madam Mojin signaled Elena to stand on a footstool, put a robe on her, quickly pinching a length that suits her with a pin, and clapping her hands happily.

"Okay, the size of the robe is ready. Dear, do you want to sit down on the sofa and slowly choose the clothes you need to purchase next?

“What clothes do you need to buy next?”

Elena repeated it a little hesitantly. This tone of speaking made her suddenly remember the hairstylists in the barber shop in her previous life. She obviously just simply repaired her bangs, but in the end she would inexplicably get a skin care membership card worth several thousand yuan.

The girl covered her wallet vigilantly and shook her head politely, "No need, I remember that only the list is written..."

Mrs. Mojin shook her head helplessly and chuckled gently.

"Oh. Dear, you wouldn't think that all Hogwarts students went to school in a whole semester, wearing only three black wizard robes, a cloak, and a wizard hat for a whole semester?"

The fat witch shrugged and continued to explain without thinking, obviously this was not the first time she had faced such doubts.

"As long as it is not too embarrassing, most students usually choose to customize a few sets of shirts, short skirts, and standard sweaters from the autumn and winter periods. By the way, Hogwarts is a full-time teaching system, and it is best to prepare all the clothes at once."

Isn’t this the legendary semi-compulsory bundled consumption?

From this point of view, if a poor child wants to go to a wizard school, the first thing he needs to learn is how to counter the terrifying magic of [King Kong].

Obviously, there is a high probability that a certain Potions professor who did not want to be named was that he did not accept the semi-mandatory bundled consumption provided by the clothing store, which led to a series of tragic love stories that followed.

In fact, the revenue from Hogwarts's personal uniform customization accounts for at least 80% of the operating income of Mrs. Mojin's gown store.

After all, compared to the robes that are used all year round, the daily uniform needs corresponding to the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter alone are a big expense, not to mention that the little witches will have additional expenses in underwear and skirts and socks.

"And, my dear, a beautiful little witch like you need to prepare several sets of different models of clothing. Here I suggest you can refer to the list of clothes that most little witches buy. After all, you will soon grow into a big girl, and if outdoor classes are involved..."

Although Mrs. Mojin said it more tactfully, Elena had already understood what she meant. In short, if she didn't want to go into the vacuum, she had to buy some normal base clothes under her robe.

Elena imagined a little bit of a sour scene where she was riding a broom and leaking her whole body. The boys in the school could see her delicate PP when they looked up and shivered.

"Needless to say, you are right, I'll buy it! However, dear Mrs. Mojin, I think we have a lot to discuss about some of the details."

The silver-haired little luoli sat upright, opened the reference picture album handed to her by Mrs. Mojin, and began to examine it carefully one by one.

The situation is better than others. After all, she is not a tough guy like Professor Snape, so she must buy it.

But if she gave up resistance and was slaughtered, she would not be the one Elena Kaslana who used her skillful bargaining skills to change the color of all shops in the Scottish Highlands.

...

When Dumbledore returned to Mrs. Mokin's gown store, Elena's conversation with Mrs. Mokin was just halfway through.

As Elena guessed, there are actually many items that can be reduced in Mrs. Mojin's "custom package".

"Before I was sixteen, I would never wear high heels. Therefore, please remove all the shoes you can't keep my heels and soles level from the list."

Elena pointed to the contents of the album and said seriously.

The fat witch's face was completely gone at this moment. She thought for a while as if she was facing a great enemy and replied slowly.

"Okay, I suggest you can actually replace it with a few pairs of flat leather shoes, sneakers, and ladies' shoes. In this way, you will save about 11 Xike."

"No need, I already have several pairs of flat white shoes, small tactical short boots."

Faced with Mrs. Mokin's proposal, Elena refused again unmoved.

Looking up, she happened to see Dumbledore standing at the window holding two big ice creams. The silver-haired little luoli's eyes lit up suddenly.

"Well, sorry... I'm missing a little, Professor Dumbledore came to me.

"Go and go... Just let me rest and sort out what I've talked about before."

Mrs. Mojin rubbed her eyebrows with some headaches and waved her hands weakly - to be honest, she had never encountered such a terrible and difficult opponent since she started running this robe store.

From fabric size fabrics to cloak-type materials; from labor costs to the so-called human physiology... This little silver-haired girl can always patiently cut prices from various tricky and unrefutable angles.

So much so that later, Mrs. Mojin even developed a feeling that she was not talking to a ten-year-old Hogwarts freshman, but was discussing a big business with several Gringott fairies.

"After so long, haven't you finished buying clothes?"

Dumbledore handed the ice cream in his hand to Elena and asked in confusion. In his impression, Mrs. Mokin had always been a very skilled witch.

"It's just halfway through... I have to admit that Mrs. Mojin is much better than the clothing store owner in the town. She is indeed a successful businessman who can open a store in Diagon Alley."

Elena sat down directly on the stone steps at the door of the robe shop, squinted her eyes and licked the strawberry ice cream that was nearly half the size of her fist.

In the summer sun, there was a slight ice mist floating above the pink ice cream balls. The raspberry jam as seasoning and crushed nuts made people feel more enjoyable. The sweet and cold taste instantly eliminated all her previous fatigue.

"Just halfway? Uh..."

Dumbledore was slightly stunned. He could not imagine why it would take so long to buy a few school uniforms.

However, after spending time together, he could vaguely guess through the frowning Madam Mojin inside that most of her almost evil eloquent speech was probably Elena.

"Since that's the case, I'll go to Lihen Bookstore to help you buy all the textbooks you need for school. If you finish this place early, wait for me on the spot for a while, and then we'll buy you a magic wand together."

Dumbledore pondered for a few seconds, quickly made a decision, turned around and was about to walk towards the location of Lihen Bookstore.

"Um, wait..."

Hearing Dumbledore's words, Elena, who was still biting the ice cream, quickly stood up and stopped Dumbledore (because she was holding two big ice creams left and right with her hands, she could only do this).

Dumbledore quickly stopped his pace to avoid accidentally hitting the silver-haired luoli who was rushing out of nowhere, and asked slightly confused.

"Hmm? Is there any other problem?"

"Yeah, Kim Garon. Buy books and use my money."

Elena swallowed the ice cream in her mouth, turned sideways, and showed Dumbledore's small bag with Jin Jialong on her waist.

"You know, Hogwarts has special funds, and it's still no problem to help you buy a set of textbooks..."

Dumbledore squatted down, his eyes parallel to Elena, and said with a smile.

"Dad Benitez said, I'm not an orphan. So I don't need school relief funds."

Elena shook her head and said firmly.

“…”

Dumbledore was silent for a half second, nodded solemnly, stretched out his hand to count twenty Jin Jialongs from the small bag around Elena's waist, "I'm sorry, I will give you the book purchase documents in the future. Is there anything else?"

"Other things..."

The silver-haired little luoli blinked her bright big eyes, pouted her mouth cutely, tilted her head and thought about it carefully, and said in a low voice.

"Well...if you can, besides the Monsters and Their Origins noted on the list, can you buy me a few more books by Mr. Newtscamander? I have always liked the magical animals in the magic world."
