第17章

谈妥分田种地事宜后，喝了一口热热的红茶，索菲亚看着笼子的火灰蛇渐渐开始恢复一点生气，开心地问海格关于火灰蛇更多的介绍，海格告知：“这些可怜的小家伙诞生于魔法火焰，寿命只有一个小时！ 诞生后迅速寻找黑暗隐蔽处产卵，你想看到它可不容易!它的卵是非常珍贵的魔法材料，是强效迷情剂、生骨灵的主要原料之一”

“原来是这样，真是令人感到神奇的动物。海格那你怎么会在禁林边缘遇到它呢？它诞生于火焰魔法的话，是谁在禁林用了魔法火焰呢？”

“那我可不知道了，我只是看到这可怜的小家伙就忍不住就把他们带回来了。”

“好吧......”

“火灰蛇蛋？强效迷情剂？” 索菲亚重复着海格刚刚的科普，福至心灵，脑中仿佛有一道闪电划过！一个大胆的念头瞬间成型。

她缺钱，非常缺钱！家里需要补贴，自己也需要购买学习用品和像样的衣服袍子。而海格这里有这么多神奇动物，简直就是一座移动的魔法材料宝库！ 他总是对这些神奇生物本身充满热情，却常常忽略了它们身上那些在魔法世界极其珍贵的“副产品”——比如鳞片、毛发、脱落的角、自然脱落的牙齿、甚至……排泄物（据说某些龙粪可是顶级肥料）！

她深吸一口气，心脏因为兴奋和一丝紧张而怦怦直跳。她看向海格，眼神变得异常明亮。

“海格，你刚才说火灰蛇的蛋很值钱，那像其它动物掉掉的毛发之类的？这些东西在魔法世界，是不是也很有价值？”

"Hagrid," Sophia said "you said the Ashwinder eggs are valuable,what about any fur of other animials might lose? Are are those things valuable in the wizarding world too?"

海格正往壁炉里添柴火，闻言愣了一下，挠了挠他那毛茸茸的大脑袋：“鳞片？毛发？哦，当然啦！火灰蛇的鳞片蕴含火元素魔力，是制作防火药剂和某些高级炼金物品的好材料。雷鸟掉的羽毛非常值钱，可以用来做魔杖哦。你问这个干嘛，索菲亚？”

"Scales? Fur?" Hagrid paused, adding a log to the fire, and scratched his shaggy head. "Oh, course! Ashwinder scales hold fire elemental magic, great for fireproofing potions and some high-end alchemy. Why d'you ask, Sophia?"

索菲亚鼓起勇气，说出了她的想法：“是这样的，海格。您看，您照顾这么多神奇又珍贵的动物，像火灰蛇、夜骐（Thestrals，索菲亚能看到，因为见过前世的飞机失事）、鹰头马身有翼兽巴克比克（Buckbeak，如果时间线允许，或者换成其他温和生物如独角兽）……它们总会自然脱落一些东西，比如鳞片、羽毛、毛发、换下来的角、甚至自然脱落的牙齿……这些东西在您看来可能只是需要打扫的‘垃圾’……”

Sophia took a deep breath and laid out her idea: "Well, Hagrid. You see, you care for so many amazing and valuable creatures, like the Ashwinder, the Thestrals (Sophia could see them, having witnessed her past life's plane crash), Buckbeak the Hippogriff (if timeline allows, or substitute other gentle creatures like unicorns)... They naturally shed things all the time – scales, feathers, fur, shed horns, even naturally lost teeth... To you, these might just be 'mess' that needs cleaning up..."

她顿了顿，观察着海格的表情，继续说道：“但是，这些东西在魔药学、炼金术甚至魔杖制作里，可能都是非常珍贵的材料！我知道您照顾它们是因为爱，不是为了这些东西。可是……可是我很需要钱，海格。” 索菲亚的声音低了下去，带着一丝窘迫但很坦诚，“我的家人生活很困难，我也想自己能买些必要的学习用品……所以我在想……”

She paused, watching Hagrid's expression, then continued: "But these things could be very valuable materials for Potions, Alchemy, even wandmaking! I know you care for them out of love, not for these by-products. But... but I really need the money, Hagrid." Sophia's voice lowered, tinged with embarrassment but honest. "My family struggles, and I need to buy necessary school supplies... So I was wondering..."

“如果……如果您允许的话，” 索菲亚抬起头，眼神充满期待，“我可以定期来帮您打扫照顾这些动物！在确保它们安全舒适的前提下，收集那些自然脱落、不再需要的材料？比如扫走脱落的鳞片、收集掉落的羽毛、捡拾换下来的角……我保证，绝对！绝对不会伤害它们任何一根毛发！我只是想……嗯，废物利用？把这些本来会被扔掉的东西，变成一点有用的钱。赚到的钱，我们可以……可以分成？或者，您觉得怎么合适都行！这样我既能帮您分担点活儿，又能……嗯，发笔小财？”

"If... if you'd allow it," Sophia looked up, her eyes full of hope and a touch of pleading, "I could come regularly to help you clean and care for these animals! While ensuring they are safe and comfortable, collect those naturally shed, no-longer-needed materials? Like sweeping up shed scales, collecting fallen feathers, picking up shed horns... I promise, absolutely! I would never harm a single hair on them! I just want to... well, recycle? Turn things that would be thrown away into a bit of useful money. Any money earned, we could... split? Or, whatever you think is fair! That way I can help you out a bit, and... well, make a bit of gold?"

海格瞪大了他那双甲壳虫般的黑眼睛，嘴巴微张，似乎被索菲亚这个提议惊到了。他看看笼子里还在呼噜的火灰蛇，又看看眼前这个瘦小但眼神无比认真和渴望的小姑娘，再看看角落里堆着的一小撮之前被他扫到一边、准备当垃圾处理的、牙牙掉的毛毛。

“梅林的老花镜啊！” 海格猛地一拍大腿，发出“啪”的一声巨响，把牙牙都吓了一跳。“索菲亚！你这小脑袋瓜可真灵光！我怎么就没想到呢！”

"Merlin's old spectacles!" Hagrid slapped his thigh with a loud smack, startling Fang. "Sophia! You clever little thing! Why didn't I think o' that!"

他激动地在屋子里踱步，巨大的身躯让地板都在呻吟：“对啊！对啊！弗立维教授上次还问我有没有多余的独角兽尾毛，说他的库存快用完了！禁林里那几只独角兽可喜欢在松针堆里打滚了，每次滚完都掉不少毛！还有巴克比克（或其他生物），它换羽期掉的羽毛，那光泽多漂亮啊！庞弗雷夫人总抱怨白鲜和龙肝精贵……要是能用这些自然掉的东西换点钱，给小家伙们买点更好的饲料或者玩具……” 海格越想越兴奋，眼睛亮得像灯泡。

He paced excitedly, his large frame making the floorboards groan: "Yeah! Yeah! Professor Flitwick asked me jus' last week if I had any spare unicorn tail hairs, said his stock was runnin' low! Them unicorns in the Forest love rollin' in the pine needles, shed loads o' hair each time! An' Buckbeak (or other creature), the feathers it sheds during moltin' season, so shiny! Madam Pomfrey's always complainin' 'bout the price o' Dittany an' Dragon Liver... If we could trade these naturally shed bits for a bit o' gold, get the creatures better feed or
