Chapter 399: Wizard supermarket!

August 1, 1995.
Diagon Alley.
Zhang Qiu and Harry were heading for the largest shop in Diagon Alley.
The first large wizard shopping supermarket in the wizarding world managed by Penello Krivat officially opened shortly after Harry opened school last year.
Because Goblet of Fire is a special year, Harry didn't come back during the Christmas holidays, and didn't know how the Magic Supermarket was going.
However, Penello often wrote to Harry to report his work, giving full play to the responsibilities of a secretary.
Although she is familiar with Muggle supermarkets, she went to learn more about some of the most powerful supermarket chains in the world.
Wal-Mart in the US, Carrefour in France, Tesco in the UK, etc.
Learned a wealth of experience and analyzed how to open a wizard supermarket with magic characteristics in the wizarding world.
In the middle of Diagon Alley, there is a large building out of filthy and small shops.
The mask is huge and glorious. Looking in through the transparent glass, you can see the colorful products.
There is also a row of brand new elevators leading to the upper four floors.
This new type of store functions as discount stores, supermarkets, antique stores, supermarkets, restaurants, clothing stores, bookstores, pharmacies and convenience stores, etc., selling food, groceries, clothing and various other commodities.
In this supermarket, you can buy 90% of the magical goods on the market, and you no longer need to run to the east and west to buy things.
Now all wizards in the world already know the name of this supermarket.
Come here to buy things and even become a fashion.
Magician, I don't have much knowledge, everyone knows this.
Harry looked at the shining signs above his head, somewhat silent.
Before "Magic Supermarket", I must add two letters "Hp".
"Why should I hang my name?" Harry was a little depressed.
Zhang Qiu said: "Didn't you emphasize the need to have a brand concept? Penello is certainly the best choice to use your name as a prefix."
Harry walked in.
The space inside is bigger, like another diagonal alley.
Harry saw that many familiar shops had branches in it.
For example, Lihen Bookstore branch, Ollivander Wand Shop branch...There are also some famous shops in other countries that Harry has not heard of.
"Bring me a piece of dragon tendon hot and sour noodles." When passing by a restaurant, a wizard shouted.
"Okay, the new store opens, buy one get one free, and get a glass of Knocker's saliva beer."
...
In addition to the endless stream of wizards in the supermarket, there are also wizards who are like supermarket employees, walking around the supermarket in standard clothes. They may be holding a piece of cake from the Honey Duke counter, or it may be a few copies. A book may also be a set of crucibles and a flying broom.
After asking the pretty witch at the cash register to make a price, she used the apparition and left with the merchandise.
Zhang Qiu pointed at the wizard in yellow and blue robes in confusion, and asked curiously: "Harry, what are these people doing? I can't see too much."
"This is one of the boss's peculiar ideas." A nice voice came.
Penello walked slowly.
It's only been a year, but she feels like a big change.
You know, she just graduated from Hogwarts last year and she is only nineteen years old this year.
But her self-confidence and self-reliance makes it hard to believe that she is under twenty.
Penello wore a black wizard robe, whose slender thighs and beautiful figure set off the robe like a cheongsam.
Harry pointed to Penello's bulging chest and said, "Which tailor makes you clothes, so restrained, isn't it uncomfortable?"
Zhang Qiu: "..."
Penello: "..."
Penello wouldn't say that she had deliberately changed into a smaller robe after knowing that Harry would come to guide the work today.
"Cough..." Zhang Qiu coughed slightly and said, "You haven't explained the question to me just now."
Penello smiled sweetly. She knew that this black-haired girl who was three or four years younger than her was one of her bosses...
"At the beginning of the opening, the boss said that he would add such a department. The wizard who did not want to come would order the products through the phone call and let the wizard with the Apparition Certificate to deliver the goods to the door. He also gave a strange name, "Mei Hungry" "I don't understand what this name means now."
Zhang Qiu said with interest, "Is that useful?"
Penello looked at Harry adoringly, and said: "When the supermarket traffic is increasing, more wizards are willing to shop in this way."

Not only are wizards who can’t Apparate, some wizards who can Apparate will also let "Mei Hungry" employees deliver to their door because they don’t have time or don’t want to go out. For example, during our survey, a witch said to wear an apron to give When the guests were preparing lunch, they found that there was not enough meat and it was inconvenient to come out. All they needed to do was to make a phone call and in a few minutes all the ingredients she needed were delivered to her door."
Zhang Qiu said: "So amazing!"
Penello said: "This job is well paid, with five insurances and one housing fund, holidays and weekends. Recently, more young wizards are applying for this position. I am considering whether to expand the scale of this department. Boss, what do you think?"
Harry said: "I generally don't participate in management. You are the person in charge, so you can decide."
Penello said: "The upper floors have more types, boss, do you want to go up and see with you?"
Harry shook his head: "No, I just wander around and leave now."
Penello let out a disappointed "O".
"Oh, Merlin! It's so spectacular!"
"If we can persuade our parents to open a small shop here, how high the profit would be."
Two boys heard louder than the other.
A pair of very active twins looked left and right, exclaiming from time to time, walking towards Harry.
It was during the holiday that I heard about the Wizards Supermarket in Diagon Alley and wanted to visit George and Brother Fred.
The two brothers saw Harry.
Fred asked excitedly, "Harry, I heard that you own this supermarket?"
George rolled his eyes: "Aren't you nonsense, isn't the name of the supermarket the best proof. And you didn't see who was in front of Harry?"
"You are really Penello Krivart! I remember you, last year you appeared in the Daily Prophet, because the Ministry of Magic selected you as one of the top ten outstanding young wizards in the UK."
Penello smiled faintly.
George said ticklely: "Can we open a shop here?"
Penello said: "Of course you can ~EbookFREE.me~ you can set up counters, or you can rent an independent shop, just like those few."
Penello pointed to several very famous brands in the magic world not far away.
Fred swallowed, "Then if we want to open such an independent shop, how much will it cost?"
Penello smiled slightly and stretched out his palm, revealing a few fingers: "This is the number of months. If you want to use a larger store, you will have to add more money."
George and Fred took a deep breath and looked at each other: "We've saved up for more than ten years of New Year's Eve, and we can't even reach the threshold."
Penello glanced at Harry and said, "But if you know the big boss, of course it will be a discount."
George was not overjoyed, but asked another question: "Is the Joko Magic Joke shop opened in your place?"
