Harry Potter: Charlie's Candy Factory

Chapter 150 Do Me Another Favor
"Oh my god...Charlie, you should have sold the snow lemons sooner, I absolutely love the taste."

After a while, the candy slowly dissipated from Hagrid's mouth, from existence to absence.He finally smacked his lips, sat up again, and said with Charlie's sincerity.

"If you like it, I'll get you some more when I go back later."

And as the voice came suddenly, Charlie had no choice but to stop his thoughts, raised his head, gave the other party a peaceful smile, and replied casually.

"Are you reading that letter from Draco?"

Hagrid scratched his head in embarrassment, and was about to say something, but the next second, he finally noticed the letter paper in Charlie's hand, fixed his eyes, and asked subconsciously.

"Correct."

Charlie nodded and put the letter back on the table.

Taking a deep breath, he raised the wrists of both arms a little bit, and then slowly pressed them on the letter paper, with his palms facing each other, forming a tower shape.

"Hagrid, did Headmaster Dumbledore ask you to bring this letter from Draco, or did he beg you to deliver it?"

Hearing Charlie's question, Hagrid couldn't help raising his thick eyebrows.His eyes froze, as if he was thinking.

After a while, although he didn't understand why Charlie asked this question, he answered honestly.

"Uh...it's not Headmaster Dumbledore. In fact, when I was chatting with those little guys, I suddenly mentioned that I'm going to send you some things for the headmaster soon."

While talking, Hagrid shrugged his shoulders and spread his two thick palms to express his helplessness.

"...You know, I've never been a good keeper of secrets... I always thought it was a problem with alcohol. I didn't expect that after I quit drinking, I still couldn't get rid of this stinky problem."

Speaking so far, even Hagrid himself couldn't help feeling a bit resentful, as if recalling a scandal he had once had, his face blushed involuntarily.

"Everyone has some flaws, and no one is perfect." Charlie simply comforted him, but his posture remained unchanged.

The slender fingers on his two hands tapped each other quietly following a certain rhythm intentionally or unintentionally, and he himself followed Hagrid's words and continued his unfinished thinking.

"That's right." Hagrid nodded, and then there was a look of recollection in his eyes again, and he continued to talk about what he hadn't finished just now.

"Draco's eyes lit up when he heard that I was going to find you. Immediately afterwards, he took out a letter from the notebook he always carried, begging me to give it to you together Bring it over! It looks like it's been a long time."

"That's it."

Charlie understood and nodded.

Picking up the letter paper again, and after glancing up and down, Charlie didn't ask Hagrid any other questions.Fold it neatly again and put it in the drawer.

With a "snap", he snapped his fingers again.

A ray of light suddenly flickered beside him, and the summoned Russell appeared beside him.

"Good afternoon, master! Is there anything Russell can do for you?"

Russell bowed slightly, and greeted Charlie respectfully as usual.

After straightening up again, he noticed Hagrid sitting next to him on the sofa, his eyes lit up, and he waved his hands cheerfully.

"Hi, Hagrid!"

"Hi, Russell."

Hagrid also raised his hand and shook Russell's greeting.

"Russell, help me with those candies... violets or sorbet lemons or something, take more of them all."

Charlie turned his gaze to Russell, and without thinking too much, he gave his request.

"No problem, Master Charlie!"

Russell got the order, nodded readily, and then looked at Hagrid, showing a bright smile.Immediately afterwards, a sudden flash of light disappeared from the office again.

Russell's speed was very fast, and he didn't keep the two of them waiting for too long, so he dragged a huge package that was as tall as its own person and returned to the office.

"Are these enough, Master Charlie?"

With a "plop", the backpack fell heavily to the ground. Russell raised his head, looked at his master with ease, and asked cautiously.

Charlie did not answer Russell, but instead asked Hagrid

"Hagrid, are these enough?"

"Um?!"

Hearing Charlie's speech, Hagrid, who was still a little confused about the situation, suddenly widened his eyes.However, looking at the huge package in front of him, he was so surprised that he stood up directly from the sofa.

"No no no! This is too much..."

I thought that the "take more" that Charlie said should be nothing more than a box the size of the gift Harry received when he first went to Hogwarts.

After all, whether it is snow lemon or violet candy, they belong to the products of the brand candy factory that have not yet been officially put into the market. Even the violet candy that has been put into Hogwarts for trial operation actually has the least share every time it is replenished. As a result, after students have enjoyed its effects, the supply is in short supply for a while.

It even made the two Weasley brothers set up a derivative business of reselling violet sugar for a while...

Originally, Hagrid thought that if he wanted to truly realize the freedom of snow lemon and violet candy one day, he could only hold back his heart and wait for Christmas.

In the end, I didn't expect that Charlie would be so generous. He just helped him out and brought back some Muggles, so he gave him such a big bag... According to his estimation, if he really took all these back, then even if I really ate until Christmas, I'm afraid I can't finish it.

Even so, Hagrid still couldn't accept Charlie's gift openly.

Because in his opinion, he is just a little effort, and it is impossible for the other party to thank him so much.

Ever since, Hagrid quickly waved his hand, and continued to evade the rejection.
"I really don't need so much, I just..."

Only this time, before he finished speaking, Charlie raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

"Actually, I still have something... I need you, Hagrid, to help me."

As Charlie said, he stood up with a bit of hale and heart in his eyes.

He was still smiling, but for some reason, Hagrid always felt that there was something in his smile that he didn't have just now.

The office fell silent for a while, Russell looked at Charlie, then at Hagrid, raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

After a long while, Hagrid finally nodded.

"Okay...Charlie, what do you need from me?"
