After understanding the uses of various quills, Harry's eyes lit up. Without hesitation, he purchased both a copying quill and a nonsense quill. He bought two of each, as usual.
What is the most dreaded thing about writing papers? Isn't it figuring out how to turn the essence of your thoughts into an entire article? These quills are a tremendous help.
Wayne's prices weren't high—two galleons each. Harry, without batting an eye, pulled out eight galleons to complete the transaction.
Meanwhile, Ron was feeling a bit embarrassed. Like Harry, he wasn't a poor student, but he was just an average performer. He hated having to do homework every day after classes.
With these two types of quills, think of all the time he could save to play Wizard's Chess! Unfortunately, Ron was a bit strapped for cash; his weekly allowance from home was only a handful of Sickles, and he had to borrow maps from Harry. Buying quills was out of the question for him.
Noticing his friend's plight, Harry whispered, "You don't need to buy them; I can lend them to you later."
"Thanks," Ron replied gratefully.
Wayne was pleased too. Quills are easily worn out, and a typical young witch or wizard might need a new quill every three terms. If two people are using them, they would wear out even faster, and Harry would likely come back to buy more.
As for whether Harry could afford them, Wayne didn't worry at all. Besides being known as the Chosen One, Harry would soon have another illustrious title: Heir to the Inheritance!
The Potter family is an old one, with a respectable amount of money in their vault, all kept within reasonable limits. When Sirius passes away, the Black family's inheritance will also fall to Harry—this is one of the most significant and wealthiest families of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, richer than the Malfoys.
He could send a Firebolt as a gift without batting an eye, proving just how well-off he was.
Then there's Snape. As much as Snape seems to dislike Harry now, he still has to consider that he is Lily's child. Snape's inheritance would eventually go to Harry as well. A master potion-maker must have substantial assets, which goes without saying.
With these three substantial inheritances lined up, Harry's future looks decidedly prosperous in the wizarding world.
Harry, in high spirits, shared amusing stories from his Quidditch training, completely unaware that Wayne had set his sights on this lucrative target.
"George and Fred almost drove Wood crazy; they're like two human-shaped bludgers, just not taking anything seriously," he said.
Hermione, who didn't quite get Quidditch, listened intently. "Harry, you must win the House Cup! The point differential with the other houses is too large."
Winning the Quidditch Cup would net his house an additional one hundred and fifty points, which is why Hermione was so concerned.
Harry's expression dropped: "I'll do my best, but it's my first year…"
Then he became agitated again. "It's all Snape's fault. I honestly don't know what I did to provoke him; he's always deducting points from me."
