Hogwarts: Starting from Creating the Lord of the Rings

Around eleven o'clock, the invited guests came to Shelby Manor one after another.

Some of the more important guests arrived, and Jimmy took Artel to meet him in person. Artel had no interest in these so-called bigwigs, after all, they were just a bunch of Muggles.

And since the top of the Shelby family was warned by Freddy that day, they didn't dare to play wizards again, so they put their minds back on business.

On Christmas Day, the giant bear in the north disintegrated, and the whole world changed dramatically.

For all interested forces, this is a rare opportunity and challenge, and the Shelby family held this unprecedented grand party to unite many tycoons in Birmingham to get enough in this Western carnival. Interests.

After dealing with several guests, Artel saw that it was almost time, and came to the door of the manor with Sophia.

Various cars were parked in the small square outside the manor, and the housekeeper brought more than a dozen members of the Razor Party to do reception work at the door.

"Master, why did you come out?"

The man who spoke was the manor housekeeper, named John, Freddie's loyal servant, who was said to have been hand-picked by Artel's grandfather and grew up with Freddie.

"I'm here to see if the friends I invited have arrived."

Artel glanced at his pocket watch, it was half past eleven.

The Granger "Five Seventy" couple were to drive from Manchester at about the same time.

"A guest you personally invited? That's a real guest! 39

John said with a smile, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the intersection in the distance.

"I think they should be here soon..."

Before John could finish speaking, a small white car appeared at the intersection. Artel nodded. He had seen it yesterday, and it was indeed Mr. Granger's car.

"They're here.

The butler nodded and stepped forward gently.

The car stopped at a place in the small square, John walked up quickly, and kindly opened the door for Mr. Granger.

"Hello, thank you for coming on time."

John said with a smile, took three invitations from Mr. Granger, and politely brought the three to the door.

Two members of the Razor Party tried to search, but were stopped by Artel.

"They don't need to check, it's a guest I personally invited.

"Yes!"

The two walked back without any hesitation.

The Grangers were a little hesitant. They looked at the polite butler and the manor behind Artel, and they had a lot of guesses in their hearts.

As for Hermione.

This heartless girl was opening her mouth in surprise, looking at the huge manor behind Artel.

"Merlin's beard! 35

"Is this your home? Artel! I feel like it's the size of Hogwarts! 35

Hermione was stunned.

She had always thought that Artel was from a noble family. After all, because of the name Shelby, Artel also said that Pansy would die.

But now it seems that this should not be something that ordinary nobles can do, right?

"Maybe about the size of Hogwarts, it's a hundred acres."

Artel smiled, but John, who was standing behind him, suddenly said:

"I'm sorry, Master, but you're wrong. Shelby Manor is three hundred acres in size..."

"Um?"

Now it was Artel's turn to be shocked.

How come my home is so big and I don't even know it?

John seemed to see Artel's doubts, he smiled and said:

"When the old owner inherited the manor, it was indeed only a hundred acres in size, but then the old owner expanded the horse farm, your father built a swimming pool, as well as a dog farm, hunting ground, etc... Now the area of ​​Shelby Manor has been There are three hundred acres.

John said, and added another sentence.

"Of course, that doesn't include the hill and forest behind the manor... those are also Shelby Manor's properties.

"Alright alright.

Artel looked at Hermione and shrugged.

"I swear I didn't know what John said."

The Grangers next to him were already numb.

The 300-acre manor is 1.2 million square meters...

Artel grew up in such a place as a child, no wonder his temperament is so noble and elegant.

Having said that, Mr. Granger always felt that the name Shelby family was familiar, but he never remembered where he heard it. Now that I think about it, the Shelby family is probably one of the oldest great nobles.

"Let's go first.

Artel interrupted Mr. Granger's thoughts, he waved his hand, and the next person drove the scooter over,

"The party is on the lawn by the pool, which is a bit far from here, so a scooter is required.

Artel explained, and the Grangers looked at each other and nodded mechanically.

Hermione suddenly remembered the bet Artel had made with herself, and the pouting old Gao asked:

"Artel, the yard you're talking about doesn't include these, does it?

"Of course, so are you still trying?"

Artel laughed. In such a big yard, if Hermione was given ten minutes, she couldn't walk to the end, how could she find herself?

"Humph! You are fooling yourself!""

"I'm not lying, it's because you didn't know it beforehand.

Artel reached out and touched Hermione's head, suddenly remembering that the Grangers were still here, his arms froze slightly, and then shrank back, he looked up and found that the Grangers didn't seem to notice this, so relieved.

After all, parents are more concerned about this kind of thing.

Maybe it was because Artel was young and had a good relationship with Hermione, so he didn't care.

"What is the bet you just said?"

Mrs Granger hugged Hermione and asked softly.

"That's... we made a bet..."

After thinking about it for a while, Hermione still felt that she had to tell her parents about it. After all, a gold watch was too precious, so she told the story one by one.

The Grangers were no less shocked to learn that Artel had given Hermione a gold watch for Christmas than to see Shelby Manor.

A pure gold handmade pocket watch is probably worth tens of thousands of pounds.

Artel just sent it out?

However, when they thought of the arrogant manor of the Shelby family, the Grangers didn't seem to be so unacceptable.

"Artel, we can't have this gift, it's really, really expensive."

Of course, Mr. Granger chose to refuse.

"Uncle Granger, I told Hermione before that preciousness is only relative, a gold watch, as you can see from my home, a gold watch is actually no different from an ordinary watch to me.

Artel looked at Hermione and said with a smile:

"But Hermione is different, she's my best friend at Hogwarts, not to mention... You look down on Hermione too much, Hermione is a talented witch, and a gold watch is not worthy of her. "

"No way, you're a genius wizard... The professors all praise you..."

Hermione felt a little embarrassed thinking about what Artel had said to her that day.

She was glad in her heart that Artel didn't say the same thing to her parents, otherwise she really didn't know how to deal with them......

"This…"

The Grangers wanted to try, but Artel justly refused.

Just a gold watch.

Artel's pocket money is more than a gold watch a month, of course, he never spends money indiscriminately.

Soon, the scooter came to the pool, and the cheerful atmosphere shocked the Grangers for the first time, but after the first two events, they were able to control their emotions well.

"God! Look, isn't that Monica? I saw her in a fashion magazine!"

Mrs. Granger saw a beautiful figure in the pool, and said in a low voice, pulling Mr. Granger's arm.

"And that...a famous actress...oh! God, I can't believe I met her?"

Mr. Granger's eyes swept across the swimming pool, the gentleman's demeanor made him effortlessly move his eyes, he looked at the others who were tasting wine, and whispered:

"Many people here have been on the newspapers and TV. I swear, watching the one drinking, yes, that's the one, that's the giant businessman in Birmingham. It is said that he controls 80% of the medical equipment business in the UK..."

The two of them whispered, the Grangers never thought that one day they could go to the same party with these people.

"Mr. Granger! Mrs. Granger, here you are!"

Jimmy, who was drinking with others, saw the Grangers, his eyes lit up, and he hurried over.

In Jimmy's point of view, even the dignitaries in Birmingham can't compare to the Grangers, who made their daughter a wizard.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, Mr. Granger, come, let me introduce you to..."

Jimmy pulled Mr. Granger away kindly, and Mrs. Granger naturally followed behind him, so that only Hermione and Artel were left.

Artel quietly gave Jimmy a thumbs up, then took Hermione's hand and walked to the other side:

"It's too noisy here, I'll take you to another place for a walk."

Hermione looked back and saw that her parents were pulled over by Uncle Jimmy to drink with others, she couldn't help but smiled, and said with a wide-eyed smile:

"OK!"

This afternoon, Artel took Hermione to feed his big dog Charlie, then took her to practice 4.1 shooting, ride horses together, and then went to Artel's secret laboratory. All in all, Hermione can really be said to be Eye-opening.

In the evening, the two returned to the party for some roast meat and cake, and slipped out again while the Grangers were not paying attention.

After the dinner party, Artel returned with Hermione.

Most of them have left, and what remains are friends who are really close to the Shelby family, or partners who have real interests.

As for the Grangers, they had already returned to the castle.

When Artel took Hermione back, Mrs. Granger didn't feel embarrassed to reprimand Hermione, but looking at her eyes, she was actually very worried about Hermione.

Because it was a little late, the Hermione family stayed at Shelby Manor at night. Artel and Hermione had a dinner prepared by Sophia in the room before they got up and said goodbye.

Today is an unforgettable day for many people.

"Good night, Artel!

In a room in the castle, Hermione whispered something to the window, and then ran back to the bed, recalling everything that happened today, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

In the next room, Mrs. Granger was talking to Mr. Granger about her taking a photo with her idol, and Mr. Granger's mind came out of the pool...

cough cough.

What a happy day!
