Chapter 266 The Ship is Coming Soon
Back home in Hogsmeade, Sainz relaxed for a few days.
Being served by a bunch of "people", he thoroughly enjoyed the life of a decadent wizard master.
As usual when dealing with Muggle matters, one must keep a tight control on one's wallet.
He contacted Dongfang again to inquire about the construction progress of his yacht.
"Mr. Autumn, the main construction and decoration of your yacht have been completed and is now in the drying stage. If you want to see it as soon as possible, we can deliver it now." Engineer Zhang showed him pictures of the yacht taken from various angles with a smile on his face.
The brand new white hull is very distinctive, with a bit of the toughness of a warship, but also has the streamlined aesthetic of a traditional large toy.
"Mr. Zhang, when I first chose you, I was impressed by your credibility, and you really didn't disappoint me.
I would like to see it as soon as possible, but I am used to working on a schedule, so I am sorry, I still insist on accepting it after October 1st. "
Zhang Gong on the opposite side was not surprised by Sainz's behavior, because during the contact, Sainz deliberately created such a personality for the other party, abiding by the rules, even to the point of being a bit mechanical.
"Mr. Autumn is indeed a man who values his promises. Do you have any suggestions on how to deliver?"
"Well, let's put it this way. I also have some business on Santa Cruz Island. Please just sail the ship there at the agreed time, and my people will pick it up there."
Zhang Gong's expression was a little embarrassed when he heard this. The other party obviously didn't know where Santa Cruz was. To be honest, Sainz didn't know it a minute ago either. He just randomly clicked on the map.
"Mr. Zhang, Santa Cruz is located in the Atlantic Ocean, across the sea from Morocco in Africa."
"Haha, Mr. Autumn's business is all over the world. He is really young and promising."
"No, no, you've given me the prize."
"Does Mr. Autumn have any special instructions?"
"Well, we'll take the route via the Cape of Good Hope. Don't worry, I'll cover all the extra expenses."
Mr. Zhang on the opposite side did not ask much. It is true that going around the Cape of Good Hope requires a lot more travel than taking the Caspian Sea route, but it doesn't matter as Sainz has the travel expenses.
He smiled knowingly, probably thinking that Sainz deliberately made the boat go around in order to test its performance.
Going through the Cape of Good Hope is more than 10,000 kilometers farther than going through several straits, and the sailing time will be one month longer, but if it is decided now, it will not delay the other party's delivery time at all, and it is not unreasonable.
In fact, Sainz's real purpose was to reduce the number of times the yacht was spotted as much as possible, and the handover in Santa Cruz was also for this purpose.
Although Sainz is going to cast a Fidelius spell on it and everyone who has witnessed it will forget about it, it is always a good idea to minimize some trouble.
Mr. Zhang wrote down this special request and asked, "Any other requests?"
"No, I believe in your credibility, and please believe in my credibility. The balance will be paid to you as soon as you see the ship."
"Haha, we have never doubted Mr. Autumn's credibility. You are the most straightforward of all the Westerners I have ever met."
"Then, happy cooperation!"
"Happy cooperation!"
After hanging up the video, Sainz was somewhat excited. In his previous life, he was just one of thousands of "brick movers", but he didn't expect that in this life, he would soon own a yacht of his own.
The encounters in life are truly unpredictable.
After the contact, Sainz no longer worried about it. He only needed to go to Santa Cruz Island to receive it on October 2nd and he didn't care about anything else.
After a week's rest, Sainz returned to work mode. He used to run between the Room of Requirement and the dormitory, but now he just runs between the Room of Requirement and his own home.
As for the way to travel back and forth between the two places, of course, it is to use the disappearing cabinet.
After seven or eight months of use, he was convinced of the safety of the two disappearing cabinets and finally began the process of opening, closing, and opening the doors.
While Sainz continued to study the Pensieve, the magic world was in a frenzy.
You can see this from the newspapers.
In the past, the front page of the Daily Prophet mostly published some official news from the Ministry of Magic and trivial matters, but recently their headlines have all been replaced by reports related to the Quidditch World Cup.
Not only the Daily Prophet, but almost all newspapers continue to report news about the Quidditch World Cup in important positions.
But the performance of the British Quidditch team was really bad, even though Britain hosted the Quidditch Games this year.
A few days ago, England lost to Transylvania 10-390, and a few days later, Wales lost to Uganda.
Not long after, the Scottish team was defeated by Luxembourg.
It's so hard for British fans!
Fortunately, Sainz had no interest in Quidditch, so he could calmly say that it didn't matter.
The summer vacation of 1994 is a turning point for Harry Potter, as a Dark Mark will appear at the Quidditch World Cup, marking the official resumption of the Death Eaters' activities.
Peter Pettigrew has escaped for more than half a year. It is said that Voldemort should have started to take action long ago, but so far, Sainz has not seen any signs.
However, it seems understandable if you think about it carefully. As a sinister and cautious guy, Lao Fu is still very patient unless he is sure that he can control the situation.
In the original trajectory, he recovered into a wrinkled, ugly baby with the help of mice, but he did not summon the Death Eaters until he took Harry's blood and completed his complete recovery. The time interval between the two was nearly a year, which shows that Voldemort was still very capable.
Think about it, he relied on the mouse to take care of him throughout the whole year, taking care of all the troubles. No wonder the mouse was strangled to death by his fake hand in the end!
After all, he had taken care of him for a year. If he killed him casually, people would say he was killing the donkey. He set a small trap in the fake hand, strangled the mouse to death, and people would say he deserved it. Who made him show "kindness" to Harry Potter!
The Quidditch Cup is in full swing. After fierce competition, the Bulgarian team and the Irish team defeated their respective opponents and became the final players competing for the World Cup championship.
Sainz also thought about going to the Sports Department of the Ministry of Magic to buy a ticket to go to the scene, but after a little thought, he gave up the idea.
He was not interested in Quidditch. His purpose of going to the scene was to consider whether he should take this opportunity to capture a few Death Eaters. Later he thought that the risk was too great and not worth it.
After all, he is not yet an adult, so it is very inconvenient for him to use magic. Even though there are many people on the scene, the Ministry of Magic cannot be sure whether he has violated the rules. In the final analysis, it is not very reliable.
Another thing is that the Death Eaters are not easy to deal with, and they move in groups. If he fails to take them down in a short time, the risk of him being exposed will increase sharply.
"Forget it, the Death Eaters are right there, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, let's just let them go this time!
Don’t get involved!”
