Witcher at Hogwarts

Chapter 140 Angry Barty Crouch

Three days later, Tom was startled when he opened the door to the Leaky Cauldron.

There was a long queue at the door of the Leaky Cauldron, and everyone couldn't wait to squeeze in when they saw Tom opening the door.

Last night, Dobby sent the first batch of Gwent cards.

Luna and Dobby finally drew a complete set of Gwent cards, and then borrowed the printing press from "The Quibbler" to print the first batch of Gwent cards very quickly. There were one hundred sets in total, and each person was limited to one purchase. set.

In order to prevent Voldemort in the Death Eater deck from causing panic, Ethan specifically replaced Voldemort with a mysterious man, and set Voldemort's appearance into a shadow outline.

But the wizards, who had already been dazzled by the 500 gold galleons, felt slightly inappropriate when looking at the Death Eater deck, but under the temptation of 500 gold galleons, they were in no mood to delve deeper.

One hundred sets of Gwent cards were quickly sold out. The wizards who bought them quickly hid the Gwent cards and left the scene quickly. They had already made an appointment with the wizards who also bought the Gwent cards to practice their cards together. A grand prize of 500 gold galleons for sprinting with good skills.

Those who had not bought anything were scratching their heads angrily and anxiously asking Tom when new products would be available.

After Tom said that another hundred sets would be sold the next day, those wizards who had not bought Gwent left the Leaky Cauldron angrily.

The grand prize of 500 gold galleons seemed to drive everyone crazy.

For several days in a row, business at the Leaky Cauldron was extremely good, and it was always full. The wizards sat face to face, scratching their heads and playing against each other to hone their card skills.

Some wizards hold a deck of cards in their hands and are thinking hard about how to play, while wealthy wizards have bought several sets of cards and are starting to think about deck combinations.

Tom's mouth hasn't been closed in the past few days, he's been laughing wildly, and Ethan can even see the little tongue directly from his mouth.

Tom's business has reached the best level in history. His wine sales are in short supply, and even the inventory in the wine cellar is being sold out.

And Ethan also made a lot of money. The new Gwent cards produced every day were in short supply and would be sold out in almost half an hour.

The naysayer's printer was running at full speed these days, day and night, and Mr. Lovegood suggested that he could sell 200 units a day.

But Ethan decisively refused. Only limited quantities can stimulate everyone's desire to buy.

For a time, almost the entire British wizarding community was talking about the Gwent Grand Prix, and this matter instantly became the most heated discussion among everyone recently.

The wizards who originally wanted to play and challenge the 500 gold Galleons grand prize also unexpectedly discovered the interesting aspects of Gwent and became fascinated by it.

Many well-known wizards have even found their own images in Gwent.

Some wizards thought this was funny and laughed it off.

But some very rigid and serious wizards, such as Barty Crouch, Director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, definitely feel that it is inappropriate for their image to be used for entertainment.

What's more, there is actually Barty Crouch Jr. in the Death Eater deck.

Barty Crouch decided that this was the worst possible insult to the Crouch family.

He angrily went to the Leaky Cauldron to stop Tom from continuing to sell Gwent cards, but was told by Tom that he was only selling them on behalf of others.

And Tom was very tight-lipped about not telling Barty Crouch who the producer behind Gwent was.

The angry Barty Crouch decided to sue the mysterious producer, but after he read through the entire British Ministry of Magic's legal provisions.

It was unexpectedly discovered that the actions of this mysterious producer were completely legal, and the Ministry of Magic had no legal provisions in this regard.

In other words, as long as the producer wants, he can use the image of anyone to make Gwent.

This discovery made Barty Crouch so angry that he angrily submitted an application to Minister of Magic Fudge, requesting that this part of the law be changed.

As a result, he only received Fudge's "I don't know what to say" evaluation.

Barty Crouch gritted his teeth and looked at the four typing words "I don't know what to say" directed by Fudge, feeling that this was Fudge's provocation and ridicule to him.

Of course Fudge knew about the recently rumored Gwent Grand Prix. In fact, he had a deck of Gwent cards on his desk.

Under Ethan's deliberate design, the image of Fudge in Gwent was designed to be tall and majestic, looking quite positive.

Fudge is quite satisfied with this image of himself and believes that it is a subtle propaganda for his positive image.

At the same time, this Gwent card also cleverly humiliated Barty Crouch.

Barty Crouch Jr.'s cards were collected by Fudge. He looked at them every day and felt much better every time he looked at them.

The person Fudge hates most in the Ministry of Magic is Barty Crouch. After missing out on the position of Minister of Magic, Barty Crouch has been opposing Fudge.

No matter what opinions Fudge put forward, Barty Crouch would sneer and object behind them. Fudge was eager to immediately remove Barty Crouch from his position as Director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation.

But Barty Crouch had deep roots in the Ministry of Magic and was very difficult to shake, so Fudge hated Barty Crouch with a passion.

He thought Barty Crouch looked down on him.

So this Gwent card is a timely blessing for Fudge. Whenever someone talks about Gwent, it seems to remind others of the ridiculous things Barty Crouch Jr. has done before.

Therefore, it was absolutely impossible for Fudge to agree to Barty Crouch's so-called changes to the law. He wanted to nail Barty Crouch to the pillar of shame forever.

From beginning to end, Ethan never showed up. Except for Mr. Lovegood's family, Dobby, and Tom, no one knew that Gwent was created by Ethan.

The day of the Hogwarts Grand Prix is ​​coming soon, and Tom has prepared several times more drinks than usual in the past few days to cope with today's "grand occasion"

Those long wooden tables were also replaced by Tom with small square tables used for Quint's battles to save space.

As soon as Tom opened the door, the crowd filled the bar. There were poker players who were eager to win the big prize, and there were also many people watching the fun.

Ethan and Tonks also squeezed into the crowd watching the excitement. He was a martial artist and did not participate in this competition. After all, sooner or later, he was the producer of Gwent.

If you win this award, it will have a big impact on your reputation. At least 500 gold galleons will not be enough to get it back.

Tonks was a little dissatisfied that Ethan had set his first date with her in this noisy place. In her expectation, the date should be in a more romantic place.

But when she learned that Ethan was the boss behind Gwent, Tonks was so shocked that she was speechless. She quickly assumed the role of the boss's wife and began to feel sorry for the 500 gold bonus Ethan ordered. Long bonus.

But after learning that Ethan had earned 800 gold galleons by selling cards, Tonks immediately put on her eyes of admiration again.

The game started as scheduled. Tom was very good at hosting the game. He fully aroused the emotions of the audience and explained the game in a unique way.

Ethan unexpectedly discovered Mr. Lovegood among the contestants. He looked like he was in a daze, but he played cards with great success, without falling behind at all, and eliminated many opponents.

After a brutal elimination round, the last two contestants gave birth to Mr. Lovegood and Mr. Ollivander, the wand maker.

The two had a brutal duel, with Luna standing in the audience to encourage Mr. Lovegood. In the end, Mr. Lovegood defeated Ollivander's Death Eater deck with a deck of magical beasts.

After winning the grand prize of 500 gold galleons, the crowd burst into cheers. Everyone watched with envy as Tom struggled to put a huge gold galleons package into Mr. Lovegood's arms.

Mr. Lovegood happily shook the big bag of gold galleons and made a clear and sweet jingle to greet Ethan, which made everyone even more envious.

In short, this Gwent Grand Prix that touched everyone's hearts has finally come to an end.
