Fast time travel: I sell mobile phones in another world

433 Chapter 432

On December 28th, under the anticipation of wizards all over the UK, the mobile phone store finally officially opened.

Almost half of the wizards in Britain came to London on this day.

The two shops in Hogsmog and Diagon Alley were crowded with people.

Especially the shops in Hogsmog Village, because Gilderoy Lockhart was there, there was a long queue early on, most of them were witches.

Mrs. Weasley also waited outside the shop early.

She excitedly said to Mr. Weasley beside her.

"For only eight Silver Sickles, which is less expensive than some of Lockhart's books, he can personally teach me how to use a mobile phone! It's amazing! Much better than a book signing!"

Mr. Weasley said expressionlessly: "We should really go to the store in Diagon Alley. There are so many Lockhart fans here. I wonder if I can buy a mobile phone today. The functions written in the Daily Prophet are really great." Attractive!”

"Don't believe the nonsense in the Daily Prophet," said Mrs. Weasley. "How can it have such a magical function for only eight Sickles?"

Mr. Weasley was not convinced.

"I didn't read what Professor Fuli said in the interview. Although the alchemy technology of mobile phones has gone through hundreds of years, it has encountered countless difficulties. But once the technology is mastered, the cost is not much. In order to benefit everyone, the Fuli family does not consider the time cost and uses the lowest price , let everyone use mobile phones."

Mrs. Weasley thought Mr. Weasley was really stupid.

"You actually believe this."

Mr. Weasley snorted: "Then you still believe that Lockhart can be a clerk himself. How can a great writer like him be a clerk for seven days in a row. He can't do it no matter how much the Foley family gives him."

"Seven days is unlikely, but the first day should be fine." Mrs. Weasley looked excited, "So we have to line up early, because Lockhart may not come tomorrow!"

Mr. Weasley finally knew the reason why he was woken up before dawn today.

I also know why there is such a long queue at the door of the mobile phone store on the first day when there are discounts seven days before the opening.

Compared with the popularity of the shops in Hogsmeade Village, Diagon Alley is much more normal.

Regarding whether the mobile phone has the functions advertised, many wizards are on the sidelines.

Most of the people who come to Diagon Alley's shop are wizards who want to have a look, not really want to buy.

And those who came all the way from other counties, almost all lined up at the door of the shop in Hogsmeade Village.

As soon as eight o'clock in the morning arrived, the doors of the two shops were all opened.

In the shop in Diagon Alley, more than a dozen people went in sparsely. Under the warm hospitality of the shop assistants, they began to experience mobile phones.

As soon as the shop in Hogsmog Village opened, it was immediately full and had to start limiting the flow.

Lockhart stood behind a counter with ten mobile phones on it.

He smiled charmingly at everyone.

"Ladies and ladies, welcome to the mobile phone store! I, Gilderoy Lockhart, an honorary member of the Defense Against the Dark Arts Alliance and a third-class Medal of the Order of Merlin, will personally show you the magical charm of the mobile phone world."

The few witches in front immediately surrounded the counter.

Mr. Weasley had not gotten up early in vain, and Mrs. Weasley was in the first group of people around the counter.

Although she was not among the top ten wizards, when other witches shook hands with Lockhart, she didn't find a chance to shake hands, but picked up a mobile phone on the counter wittyly.

At this point the clerks came up to maintain order.

"Except for the wizards who got their phones, please leave the counter and continue queuing. For wizards who don't want to queue, other store staff will serve you wholeheartedly at any time!"

The witches who didn't get their mobile phones quit immediately.

However, with Lockhart's help, the wizards who surrounded them finally dispersed, and the team gradually became orderly.

Lockhart's smiling face was a little stiff, but he still showed eight white teeth, and he spoke gently to the ten witches who got the mobile phones in front.

"Please press and hold this button to turn on your phone..."

Lockhart patiently explained the mobile phone to everyone.

Not just basic usage.

There are also call functions, WeChat, and live APP usage.

Mrs. Weasley tried to add the WeChat account of the witch next to her, and used the video function of WeChat to talk to the other party.

When the two saw each other's face clearly displayed on the screen, they were startled.

Mrs. Weasley couldn't help asking.

"What's the distance limit for a...video call?"

"Smart lady, you've got the most important point!" Lockhart said with a charming smile.

"Whether it's a voice call or a video call, it's not restricted by the distance and location at all! It won't be blocked by any magic spell! Let everyone contact the person they miss the most anytime, anywhere!"

Tang Yan also said something similar in the newspaper, but not many people believed it.

But what's interesting is that the words came from Lockhart, a big liar, and almost all the witches who heard the words believed them.

Everyone exclaimed, marveling at the magic of the mobile phone.

Lockhart continued to speak to everyone with a smile.

"I have decided to resign as Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts and officially join the live broadcast app on my mobile phone. From now on, I will find two hours every day to tell everyone stories on the live broadcast app."

Lockhart smiled, but his heart was bleeding.

For two hours a day, he felt like he had sold himself to Winnie Foley.

But with such a big handle in the hands of the other party, he has to do everything except work hard.

Lockhart asked Mrs. Weasley and the others to turn on the live broadcast software on the phone without changing his smile.

Lockhart also opened his live broadcast account and waved to the front camera.

"Hi charming ladies, welcome to Lockhart's adventure story time. Follow me, I will bring you a different story every day."

A middle-aged witch next to Mrs. Weasley screamed.

"Ah! I will wait for you every day!"

Lockhart continued to maintain a charming smile dedicatedly.

"The explanation for the first batch of ten charming witches has come to an end. You can watch other mobile phones by yourself in the mobile phone store. The next ten are welcome."

The first batch of witches didn't want to leave, but the people behind didn't agree, and a new batch of witches was replaced soon.

Lockhart continued to explain to everyone with a gentle smile.

As for the first batch of ten witches to leave, other shop assistants immediately greeted them and introduced them to them.

Everyone felt that the function of the mobile phone was really magical, and in order to watch Lockhart's live broadcast, they didn't hesitate to pay for it.

Some, like Mrs. Weasley, who came with their husbands, thought about it and bought one for their husbands.

Some wizards with good family conditions will also buy one for their children who did not come.

Batch after batch of people passed by, and the people behind watched the people in front discuss all kinds of magic of mobile phones.

Many male wizards who come with their wives, daughters or mothers can't stand.

If you don't need Lockhart's explanation, you don't need to queue up. You can go directly to other clerks.

So some people left the team and began to learn about mobile phones under the leadership of other shop assistants.

And without exception, will buy at least one.
