After bidding farewell to Dumbledore, Li Ke quickly finished his business. Apart from accepting a business recommendation from the Fairies when he exchanged gold for money at Gringotts, and using the Holy Light Shield and Elven magic protection accessories, he brandished the Calamity Magic Sword to rob some Dark Wizards who tried to rob him in a remote alley. Other than that, Li Ke basically didn't spend much effort to reach the shop he went to last time.
However, this time, he learned something that shocked him greatly.
"This thing is illegal?!"
Li Ke, who was buying the Traceless Stretching Box, was told that he couldn't sell it in bulk. The shop assistant carefully glanced at the people outside, then nodded to Li Ke.
"Yes, sir. The reason why this box is so expensive is not only because of the materials and workmanship, but also because it is illegal. The extra cost is an accommodation fee, and it's 70%. But even so, when we sell it, it's under the banner of transporting goods and carrying out international trade. So, if you only want to buy one, we can still help you. But if you want to buy a second one, or even a large amount … I'm sorry, we can't do that. "
The shop assistant smiled bitterly and shook his head. The Ministry of Magic had this rule, because the Traceless Stretching Spell wasn't particularly difficult to find, but it was very difficult to learn. Therefore, the Ministry of Magic had very strict regulations in this area, and the supervision was also very strict.
But it was impossible to not use such a convenient magic. Moreover, if one didn't use this kind of package, there was no way to hide one's identity from the eyes of Muggles. Therefore, there were still some channels that could be used. For example, schools, or the Ministry of Magic transporting goods, or large companies and shops purchasing goods, it wasn't that they couldn't use it.
Furthermore, this prohibition wasn't absolute. Gringotts would send out a small Traceless Stretch Incantation package to their customers. Some of the Ministry of Magic's staff would also secretly use it. Moreover, no one would care if you secretly used it. Unless it was a big case, the Ministry of Magic would also turn a blind eye to it.
But if you're not a member of the Ministry of Magic, or someone important, and you're seen using this thing … Then I'm sorry, but the Ministry of Magic punishes people like you.
Li Ke was suddenly enlightened after being explained by the shop assistant in front of him.
"Isn't this a civil servant of Great Britain?"
The clerk's smile was a little awkward. He was born a Muggle, so he knew what it meant to be a civil servant. Li Ke couldn't go back empty-handed, so he looked at the shop assistant again.
"Is there a way?"
"There's no other way."
"Is there really no way?"
"There's really no other way."
"Can't I call you brother?"
Li Ke took out a bag full of gold coins and looked at the shop assistant. The shop assistant looked at Li Ke's bag, then looked at Li Ke's youthful face, and shook his head firmly. The store manager behind him snorted coldly. Who was this kid in muggle clothes trying to fool? In this line of work, there was a rule that could not be changed even if one was poor.
Trying to bribe him and his employees with money?
Dream on!
"You can't even call me father. Kid, this is the rule. The last time we sold it to you was an exception. If it wasn't because our boss couldn't pay the salary, he wouldn't have sold it to you."
Li Ke nodded when he heard that. It turned out that he took advantage of the shop assistant last time.
After understanding the problem, he inadvertently dropped more than a dozen gold bricks and gems from his pants to the ground, causing the shop assistant to be stunned on the spot. The store manager, who was watching coldly from behind the counter, suddenly teleported to Li Ke's side. He knelt on one knee, grabbed the gold bricks, and looked at the shop assistant warily.
However, when he faced Li Ke, he was quite flattering. He grabbed Li Ke's pants and shook it constantly, trying to shake something off from it. His tone was quite sincere and domineering.
"Father, there's a way."
Li Ke patted his shoulder kindly, and put away the Disaster Demon Sword that he took out, as well as the Holy Light that filled the street. He looked at the other party with a gentle face.
"What way?"
The store owner breathed a sigh of relief, then showed a smile.
"Do you know about compound decoctions? No, no, it won't be good if they find out. How about this? How about you register a company? It's very safe, but it's more troublesome. It'll take more than ten days. Or I can help you contact some people and ask them to write you a letter of introduction or something. This way, no one will make things difficult for you, and it'll be very fast. "
Looking at the store owner's panicked face, Li Ke smiled again. He wouldn't stay in this world for long. He would leave after buying the things, so it was impossible for him to stay in this world for more than ten days to go through the formalities.
"If I open a company, can I raise the money faster?"
The store owner wiped the cold sweat off his head. The money Li Ke took out now was enough to hire people to rob their store. If he raised the price again, someone might come to steal their business. And he really couldn't raise the price anymore. The Ministry of Magic also cared about their reputation, so he had to show an awkward smile.
"This is already the speed of raising the money."
Do I really have to stay here for more than ten days? But I'm not ready to protect Dumbledore yet …
Li Ke pondered for a moment, then looked at the store owner.
"Do you have an owl here?"
"Ah?"
So the next day, there was an additional piece of news in the Prophet's daily newspaper:
"Hogwarts buys Traceless Stretching Spell Boxes. Does this prove that Hogwarts has become a smuggling den? Please read Rita Sky's report for the details. "
— — —
"I didn't expect the Ministry of Magic in the Harry Potter world to be so involved."
In the name of working for Hogwarts, Li Ke, who easily bought all the Traceless Stretching Spell Boxes in the store, stretched and planned to return to his own world. And in the briefcase next to him, there were dozens of such space bags.
Twenty of these space bags were as big as the box he bought last time. They were very large, with an area of 930,000 square meters and a height of more than 40 meters. The remaining twenty or so were only about 100 cubic meters of space. They were 'small packages' for home use.
Li Ke didn't have anything bigger than that. The bigger one, the one that could fit a fleet, had to be custom-made and was very expensive. But this one had already been found. Li Ke only needed three months to get a large space bag that could hold an aircraft carrier formation. Although the price was very good, this kind of thing could never be too much.
According to the logic of this world, these Dimensional Bags that could be put into another Dimensional Bag could not be bought this way. No one would tell Li Ke how to get such a large Dimensional Bag. However, all he had to do was to use Dumbledore's name, and he could easily do these things that he could not do in theory, and it was legal! There wouldn't be any more trouble.
This was why Li Ke wanted to build a good relationship with Dumbledore and even find a way to protect him. Some things could be easily done as long as he used Dumbledore's name, so why not? And he could easily do everything, then return to his own world to have a good rest.
"So it's time to go."
So he ate ice cream, hummed a song, activated his power, and rushed toward his own world …
Then, he was attacked by the world.
Looking at the desert that suddenly appeared in front of him, the box in Li Ke's hand fell to the ground.
"Again …"
After bidding farewell to Dumbledore, Li Ke quickly finished his business. Other than accepting another business recommendation from the fairies when he exchanged gold for money at Gringotts, and using the Holy Light Shield and the magical protective accessories of the elves, he brandished the Calamity Mystic Sword to rob some black wizards who tried to rob him in a remote alley. Other than that, Li Ke arrived at the shop he went to last time without much effort.
However, this time, he learned something that shocked him greatly.
"This thing is illegal?!"
Li Ke, who was buying the Traceless Stretching Box but was told that he couldn't sell it in large quantities, asked. The shop assistant carefully glanced at the people outside, then nodded to Li Ke.
"Yes, sir. The reason why this box is so expensive is not only because of the materials and workmanship, but also because it's actually illegal. The extra cost is an accommodation fee, and it's 70%. But even so, when we sell it, it's under the banner of transporting materials and conducting cross-border trade. So if you only want to buy one, we can still help you, but if you want to buy a second one, or even a large quantity … Sorry, we really can't do that. "
The shop assistant smiled bitterly and shook his head. The Ministry of Magic stipulated this because the Traceless Stretching Spell wasn't particularly difficult to find, but it was very difficult to learn. Therefore, the Ministry of Magic's regulations in this aspect were very strict, and the supervision was also very strict.
However, it was impossible to not use such a convenient magic. Moreover, if one didn't use this kind of package, one wouldn't be able to conceal oneself from the eyes of Muggles. Therefore, there were still some channels that could be used. For example, schools, or the Ministry of Magic's transportation of materials, or even large companies and shops. It wasn't that they couldn't use it.
Furthermore, this prohibition wasn't absolute. Gringotts would send out a small Traceless Stretch Incantation package to their customers. Some of the Ministry of Magic's staff would also secretly use it. Furthermore, no one would care if you secretly used it. Unless it was a big case, the Ministry of Magic would also turn a blind eye to it.
But if you weren't a Ministry of Magic member, or some big shot, and were seen using this thing, then …. Then sorry, the Ministry of Magic would punish people like you.
Li Ke was suddenly enlightened after being explained by the shop assistant in front of him.
"Isn't this a British civil servant!"
The shop assistant's smile was somewhat awkward. He was born a Muggle, so he knew what a British civil servant meant. Li Ke also couldn't go back empty-handed, so he looked at the shop assistant again.
"Is there a way?"
"There's no way."
"There's really no way?"
"There's really no way."
"I call you brother, can't I do that?"
Li Ke took out a bag filled with gold coins and looked at the shop assistant. The shop assistant looked at Li Ke's bag, then looked at Li Ke's young face, and shook his head firmly. The store manager behind him snorted coldly. Who was this kid in Muggle clothes trying to fool? In this line of work, there was a rule that couldn't be changed even if one was poor.

The store manager, who was watching coldly from behind the counter, suddenly teleported to Li Ke's side. He knelt on one knee, grabbed the gold bricks, and looked at the shop assistant vigilantly.
However, when he faced Li Ke, he was quite flattering. He grabbed Li Ke's pants and shook it constantly, trying to shake something off from it. His tone was also quite sincere and domineering.
"Father, there's a way."
Li Ke patted his shoulder kindly, and put away the Disaster Demon Sword that he took out, as well as the Holy Light that filled the street. He looked at the shop assistant with a gentle face.

Looking at the shop assistant's panicked face, Li Ke smiled again. He wouldn't stay in this world for long. He would leave after buying the things, so it was impossible for him to stay in this world for more than ten days to go through the formalities.
"If I open a company, can I increase the money faster?"
The shop assistant wiped the cold sweat off his head. The money Li Ke took out now was enough to hire people to rob their shop. If he offered a higher price, someone might come to steal their business. And he really couldn't increase the price anymore. The Ministry of Magic also cared about their reputation, so he had to show an awkward smile.
"This is already the speed of increasing the money."
Do I really have to stay here for more than ten days? But I'm not ready to protect Dumbledore yet …
Li Ke pondered for a moment, then looked at the shop assistant.
"Do you have an owl here?"
"Ah?"
So the next day, in the Prophet's daily newspaper, there was an additional piece of news:
"Hogwarts has bought a lot of Traceless Stretch Spell Chests. Does this prove that Hogwarts has become a smuggling den? Please read Rita Sky's report for the details. "
