Chapter 101 Silently?
Chapter 101 Silently?
The magical communicator was featured prominently on King Publishing's front page.
To further expand their brand awareness, the six families spared no expense in spending Galleons, and various publishing houses launched a massive advertising campaign.
The young heirs involved in the collaboration held bracelets and had the owl deliver them to their respective friends one by one.
No one came for nothing, everyone gets a share! Those who got something for free, get to work!
Slytherin's little devil quickly got the hang of it, and all his friends and family were activated!
This, this, and that!
This east wind rose up and quickly swept across most of the magic world.
However, many people remain hesitant and are not entirely comfortable with the emergence of new things.
Tana remembered what Landric had told her before he left: "If a product wants to sell well, one important method is to stimulate consumption, but the most important thing to stimulate consumption is to make customers feel like they're getting a good deal, while also creating a sense of urgency!"
Tana thought it made sense and nodded vigorously.
Whether it really works or not, since my son brought it up, why not give it a try?
One of the advantages of living in a large family is that children have ample resources to learn from mistakes; even if they take the wrong path, they won't immediately fall into a deep abyss.
It was at most like being tripped by a small pebble.
Besides, what the child said makes sense.
She immediately implemented one of her son's plans: the WZ strategy.
Of course, she didn't know why Landric chose such a name.
The communicator bracelet was priced at 7 Galleons per piece in the first month.
After the first month, the price was raised to 27 Galleons.
Three months later, the price had fully recovered to 37 Galleons.
Don't underestimate the purchasing power of a Galleon in the wizarding world; seven Galleons are enough to cover a person's living expenses for two months.
Once the news was announced in the King newspaper and on news feeds, all communication wristbands on the market were immediately sold out.
Demand far exceeded supply, so Lala took Lanmi to the other five families and went door-to-door asking for house elves.
The master family will not release elves who have served for a long time and know some of the family's secrets.
Lala's target is those inconspicuous little sprites that aren't very useful.
Greengrass, Parkinson, and Zabini are all willing to sell Rozier for a good price.
The price of 500 Galleons was quickly agreed upon.
Nott and Malfoy suggested that they simply take him away.
However, Lala remembered her little master's request and specifically asked for Dobby.
Lucius frowned. "What use is a rebellious and insane creature?"
Lala bowed respectfully. "Lord Malfoy, my young master said Dobby is fun and somewhat useful, so he specifically asked me to inquire if I could take him with me?"
Thinking of the beast still locked in the dungeon, Lucius readily nodded.
Thus, a production line composed of house-elves was quickly established.
Dobi, Tuka, and Papi, the little elves, were moved to tears, looking pitifully at Lala as they wanted to cry but dared not.
"You look awful! Don't cry! As long as you work hard, Rozier won't treat you unfairly! The communications industry is just starting out, and we're short-handed right now. The young master said that once he bought you, you're free to live in the staff dormitory Rozier provides."
"Of course, your work is paid, just like a normal wizard. The base salary is 3 Galleons, and the more you do, the more you earn. You work five days a week and have two days off, six hours a day, and the rest of the time is yours to do as you please."
The dream hit Dobby on the head with a thud.
The freedom they had always longed for had finally come true. Not only that, the young master even took care of their food and lodging.
Dobby couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears, hugging Lala and wailing as he cried.
"I swear by Dobby, and I bear witness that I will be completely loyal to Landric Rozier for the rest of my life, and if I break this vow, may I die a horrible death!"
A golden thread instantly wrapped around Lala's arm, and Lala's eyes changed.
No wonder the little master insisted on bringing Dobby back; Dobby's magic reserves are much greater than those of ordinary elves, right?
The others also tentatively stepped forward.
Lala stroked the golden threads on her hand with a satisfied look, and then took the little elves away.
……
Although Tana really liked the silver-green color scheme, her son said that she had to pay attention to the customers' needs!
As a result, the newly launched bracelets were adorned with colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
An orange bracelet ended up in Dumbledore's hands.
The white-bearded old man smiled and asked the gloomy old bat beside him, "Severus, what do you think?"
"See with your eyes"
Dumbledore had a sudden realization; the conversation seemed familiar.
"Rozier is a kid who keeps surprising us."
Snape remained silent, his expression somber.
But Dumbledore didn't care: "A second-year student with such powerful magic! You know what that reminds me of, Severus?"
Snape's pupils contracted, and he couldn't control his expression for a moment.
The old man had been secretly sensing Snape's emotions, and seeing his reaction, he had a pretty good idea of what was going on.
"Mr. Rozier... is that Obscurus?"
These three words actually made Dumbledore speechless.
A bolt of lightning struck Snape's heart, shattering it into pieces.
"Silent...silently?"
Dumbledore rarely saw Snape with such a sorrowful expression.
He further elevated Landric's standing in Snape's eyes.
At the same time, it confirmed his guess.
A frail body, powerful magic, a beautiful face, and... a short life.
The image of the red-haired girl in Godric's Valley seemed to reappear before my eyes.
Silently...my younger sister...
