The Periodic Table of Words at Hogwarts

Chapter 417 The Guardian of the Moon God (Dog Food?)

"When I used to visit Nico, I often passed by here. I have to say that compared to Diagon Alley, the Muggle commercial street is really prosperous."

Walking on the bustling commercial street, Dumbledore looked at everything with curiosity like a child.

In order to reimburse the travel expenses, Zhang Qi had to buy a lot of snacks for the old man who liked sweets, and also bought one for himself because he didn't have dinner.

"I don't think you came here to treat me to macarons, right?"

Dumbledore put a piece of macaron in his mouth and narrowed his eyes comfortably.

"Of course not, otherwise how could I make you dress more like a Muggle?"

Dumbledore put on an old-fashioned suit. Although his iconic long beard was not shaved off, he looked more like a kind old grandfather.

"Cartier? A Muggle jewelry store? I remember this store already existed when I first met Nico."

Dumbledore blinked in surprise. In his impression, Zhang Qi would only wear the black windbreaker and a plaid shirt without a tie every day, and he almost never changed his outfit.

Zhang Qi once said that a tie has no effect except making it easier for others to strangle you, so he would not wear it even if he died.

"Mr. Dumbledore, I think with your smart mind, you should be able to know why I am here"?

Zhang Qi laughed softly, and then pushed open the very luxurious door before the waiter could react.

"Welcome, do you have any needs?"

The waiter, who had never expected a teenage boy to come here, hurriedly followed him, concealing his embarrassment in his tone.

"Choose a Diamond Ring".

Zhang Qiyan said concisely and comprehensively.

"puff"!

Dumbledore, who was holding a cup of yogurt and drinking it slowly, almost spit out the words. He coughed quickly to relieve his embarrassment.

"Ah? What kind of diamond ring do you want? What is it used for? Are there any material requirements?"

The waiter asked quickly.

"For engagement, you need to order a pair. There is no requirement for the material except gold. However, the situation may change. I will take a look at your finished product first."

Zhang Qi waved his hand.

"Okay, please come upstairs with me."

The waiter inferred from a few words that this young guest was not ordinary, so he led the two of them directly to the VIP area upstairs.

"This hollowing out technique is very interesting."

As soon as Dumbledore went up to the second floor, he was attracted by a sterling silver pendant. He was amazed by the pattern on it.

"Oh? Have you ever been in the jewelry industry?"

An old man who was sitting behind the counter reading a newspaper raised his eyebrows in surprise and then stood up.

This old man was also wearing an old-fashioned suit, and his personal hygiene was meticulous. He looked like an old gentleman.

"I have never done it before, but I have tried to do it myself."

Dumbledore sighed softly and took off a slightly strange pendant around his neck.

The silver pendant is full of complicated and wonderful patterns, and the hollow middle section is inlaid with a dragon's breath stone. The stone glows red and blue under the light, making it look really mysterious.

"Its chain is damaged. If your technology here can do it, I would like to replace it with a new chain."

Dumbledore said very politely.

"Ah, please let me take a look first."

The old man took the pendant with great surprise and played with it slowly in his hand.

"You did this yourself"?

After a moment, the old man raised his head.

"My wife and I did it. This is his relic."

Dumbledore sighed softly.

"Sorry, I don't have that kind of strength. This metal looks very strange, very much like silver, but it doesn't seem to be the same. I definitely can't come up with this kind of ratio"...

Gu Tao“I can provide this metal, are you sure?”

Dumbledore suddenly became a little excited at this time.

"It will take a long time. I need time to slowly understand the properties of this metal, so that I can make the best jewelry."

"This is the best craftsman here. He has been working since he was 16 years old, and he is over 60 this year."

The clerk from just now introduced it quickly.

"I have to admit that this is a challenge for me, so I won't charge any money for now. After all, people live to challenge themselves."

The jewelry craftsman burst out laughing.

"And that kid over there, which one did you like?"

The old man looked at Zhang Qi who was still standing in front of the glass counter and asked jokingly.

"There are very amazing styles, but they seem to be a bit lacking."

Zhang Qi locked his eyes on a bird-shaped ring, frowned, and finally sighed.

"Oh? That's a very vicious look. I didn't hit it with my hands at all."

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed heartily again.

"I don't have anything hand-made by you at all. If I want it made by your hand, I'd probably have to customize it."

Zhang Qi shrugged his shoulders.

"So I have already prepared the design drawings in advance."

As Zhang Qi spoke, he put his bag on the counter, pulled out a roll of paper, and then spread it flat on the table.

It was a three-dimensional view of a ring. Zhang Qi used the painting techniques he learned from the forensic girls next door in his previous life to paint all the details vividly.

"The main body is made of platinum, and the cutting shapes of diamonds and sapphires are also very interesting... Huh? You want to engrave your fiancée's name on the pattern without any trace? Do you think I am a CNC machine tool?"

The old man looked at the design drawing with an expression of surprise on his face.

“A challenge for you”?

Zhang Qi felt relieved after seeing the expression on the old man's face.

"It's not a challenge. I can indeed carve such a small name, but I can't design a pattern like you."

The old man nodded.

"Astoria Greengrass? She was named after Artemis, the goddess of the moon. I think she must be a very beautiful and kind-hearted little girl."

The old man smiled and nodded.

"Yes, so I named this ring Guardian of the Moon God, so it echoes her name."

Zhang Qi smiled and nodded.

"When are you going to get engaged?"

The old man held the design drawing in his hands like a treasure, and then asked casually.

"Christmas".

"It should be okay if I, an old man, don't have a heart attack from excitement."

The old man calculated the date and then nodded.

"Black Card".

After Zhang Qi saw that the other party agreed, he quickly took out a titanium alloy card from his pocket and handed it over.

"You are young and rich, and you are also dedicated. You are really the type that girls dream of."

After taking the card, the old man's tone seemed to contain a hint of emotion and jealousy.

"However, I still have to remind you, child."

"Artemis is not only the goddess of the moon, she is also the goddess of hunting. A girl named after her can be very scary when she is angry"...
