The ringtone on Coulson's phone was specially set by him. Anyone who knew his number was an important person—either a superior, colleagues like Natasha and Barton, or a special target like Professor Lockhart. Each person had a different ringtone to alert him promptly without delays.
"Professor Lockhart, how can I help?"
"Don't forget what I reminded you in the cafe last time. I like silence the most. Also, I plan to find a good book cafe to purchase. Could you please help me find a location?"
Lockhart's tone was cold, but the content of the call made Coulson feel ecstatic. He quickly responded, "Don't worry, Professor Lockhart. I will find the best location for you. I guarantee there won't be any problems."
"Okay, try to hurry up. I need some peace and quiet now."
Before Coulson could reply, he heard the beeping sound of the call being disconnected. Coulson wasn't surprised. Instead, he called his director with a smile on his face. Once connected, Coulson spoke immediately.
"Director, the Professor Wizard project has made some progress. The other party is showing his goodwill."
Queens Street, Lockhart's Study
The study room of Lockhart's villa was his favorite place. Not only was it beautiful, but the space was also ample. Deep in the study, numerous bookshelves were filled with Muggle books. Lockhart sat at a desk made of brown solid wood and put down his phone. He had just had a call with Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D., warning him not to keep surveillance near his house and asking him to find a book cafe.
Essentially, he was telling Coulson to keep the surveillance away from his house and instead focus on the book cafe. Future discussions would happen there. The book cafe would serve as his public contact place. Even if spies were involved, they should keep an eye on the bookstore and not his house. If they ignored this, Lockhart wouldn't hesitate to take action.
Lockhart didn't want to trouble himself with finding a suitable book cafe. Considering all factors would take too much effort. Besides, letting S.H.I.E.L.D. choose the location would be more practical, showing goodwill and establishing a boundary.
Lockhart continued reading the book he had borrowed from Kamar Taj. He had already read the previous batch of books he brought from the Kamar Taj Library to the Harry Potter world. The more he learned about Kamar Taj's mage system, the more envious he felt. With the help of dimensional power, they could easily cast powerful magic and had significant advantages in time, space, and soul.
Thinking of how they could use the Sling Ring to create portals and access the mirror dimension at will, Lockhart couldn't help but feel envious.
Two Days Later, New York Sanctuary
In a room deep in the New York Sanctuary, Master Morin and Lockhart sat cross-legged around a table with a pot of tea and teacups. Master Morin poured tea into their cups, took a sip, and spoke.
"Mr. Lockhart, your Dream Soul Potion is very effective. I tried it, and it improved my mental power by nearly 10%, allowing me to break through my current bottleneck."
Seeing the faint smile on Master Morin's face, Lockhart also smiled. "If it works, that's good. The first time you use Dream Soul Potion, the effect is the best. If you use it later, you may develop resistance, and the effect will gradually decrease. But don't worry, I have other potions that can improve your mental power. You can try them when the time comes."
Master Morin's eyes lit up. He thought for a moment and said, "Master Lockhart, I have already told some of my friends about the Dream Soul Potion. They decided to buy a batch and give it a try. The first batch is 5 bottles of Dream Soul Potion. Later, the quantity may be increased. There is no problem with the supply, right?"
"Of course, there's absolutely no problem," Lockhart replied, nodding with a smile. "I still have 19 bottles of Dream Soul Potion now, and I can produce more next month. I also have Wiggenweld for injuries, blood replenishing potion, and calming draught for meditation. The sorcerers of Kamar Taj are always welcome to purchase."
Master Morin nodded, somewhat reserved, and said, "As long as your potions are effective, we will definitely purchase them. But what do you need? Magical weapons, potions, magic metals, medicinal materials, etc.?"
Hearing this, Lockhart's eyes flashed with joy. He handed a piece of parchment to Master Morin.
"I made a list of what I need. You can take a look."
Master Morin glanced at the list, his mouth twitching slightly as he read:
Golden Clover
Magic Ginseng Root
Mithril
Runes
Light Boots (magic weapon)
After a brief look, Master Morin raised his head and stared at Lockhart with a strange expression.
Lockhart quickly said, "This is just a list. Everything on it is what I need. If you have it, great. If not, that's okay. Right now, I need golden clovers, divine flowers, ginseng, and mithril."
Master Morin pondered for a moment and nodded. "I have golden clover and divine flower. I can give you some. As for mithril, I'll ask my friends if they have any."
He looked down at the parchment list again, the corners of his eyes twitching, and said, "Regarding the other materials and items on the list, I'll check and trade if I have them. However, a lot of magic potions will be needed, so you have to prepare in advance."
Lockhart nodded quickly and said, "Thank you, Master Morin."
He handed Master Morin another bottle of Dream Soul Potion. "This is another bottle of Dream Soul Potion. Master Morin can try it again to see the effect of the second bottle."
Master Morin took the dark blue Dream Soul Potion, looked at Lockhart, and after a moment, nodded and put it away without saying anything else. Seeing this, the smile on Lockhart's face grew wider. He felt he had found a way to gain recognition from people like Master Morin.
It seemed that the first revenue channel was successfully opened.
