Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 342: Blood money
Chapter 432
Kenneth Toller looked at the three people next to him with a strange expression, and finally Mrs. Padiff filled the table with a chair, otherwise he would have to stand.
"Mr. Anderson, you are younger than I thought." Mrs. Primpinier shook hands with Albert.
"Well, that's what everyone said." Albert politely reached out and shook hands with the lady in front of him.
"Everyone?"
Mrs. Primpinier was a little curious about who Albert was referring to by "everyone", but she didn't forget what she was doing here today.
"Let's talk about today's meeting, your redness remover version 2.0 is really good. However, your taste in naming is really difficult to agree with." Mrs. Primpinier said with a smile.
Isobel smiled at Albert with a "Look, I said you won't be named".
"500 Galleons, I am not unacceptable, but I am more concerned about how much profit it can bring me, I mean... I heard that Mr. Anderson only spent half a month, Complete the improvement of the potion formula." Mrs. Primpinier sipped her lipstick tea, looked up at Albert and asked, "If I buy your formula and you re-improve it, I will pay for it. All lost."
"I'm not entirely to blame for the improved potion." Albert raised his finger to Isobel and said, "My friend has also helped me a lot."
"Who is this lady?" Mrs. Primpenie asked curiously, looking at Isobel.
"Isobel McDougall," introduced Albert, "a genius at Hogwarts."
"If you are interested in beauty potions, I welcome you to apply for a job in my shop after graduation." Mrs. Primpinier shook hands with Isobel and invited, "I will give you a satisfactory price. ."
Kenneth Toler and Katrina were both a little embarrassed, and they couldn't get in at all.
"I'll consider it." Isobel politely declined.
"Okay, Mr. Anderson, haven't you answered my question yet?" Mrs. Primpernie shifted her gaze to Albert again.
"Five years, I think five years should be enough time for Mrs. Prim to earn back the cost." Albert thought for a while and said, "And still make a lot of money."
"It's too short." Mrs. Primpernie shook her head and refused. "If it's only five years, I'm afraid I can only give you half the price."
"You should have used the potion too. The redness remover version 2.0 is already a mature product. In Hogwarts school, a large number of girls and boys use it to remove pimples on their faces. No one doesn't like to make themselves look more beautiful." Albert said to the lady in front of him while drinking milk tea, "I think you will definitely make a lot of money, at least not lose money."
Mrs. Primpiner wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Albert raising his hand.
"Improving the potion itself is not so simple." Albert continued: "As a pharmacist, you should also be well aware of this."
Mrs. Primpinier was silent, because the boy in front of her was right, this was a solid business, and she just wanted to get more benefits for herself.
"This is a gamble at most. If I hadn't improved a better potion, 500 Galleons would be equivalent to exchange for the 2.0 formula of the redness remover, and Mrs. Primpinier would undoubtedly make a lot of money. pen."
Mrs. Primpinier did not dispute this, as he was also aware that the boy in front of him knew the price of the recipe.
"You think it's a bet?" Mrs. Primpenie looked at Albert with interest.
"Yes." Albert said with a smile: "Also, you won't lose the bet, at most you will earn a little less, and if I lose the bet, I will definitely lose blood. Of course, I dare to bet because My luck has always been good, and I'm pretty confident in my luck."
Prime sent Mrs. Neal to think for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Because what Albert said was absolutely right, the exclusive business was very profitable, and she would not lose any money on this birth.
To take a simple example, the speed-smoothing hairspray used in the wizarding world today was invented decades ago. The inventor made a lot of money from it, and he ended up selling the shop and the formula for the potion. Let him directly become a rich man, but today's speed smoothing agent is still very profitable.
If Albert is not improving the new redness remover, it means that the formula will also be very valuable, and five hundred gallons may not be enough to earn a fraction.
Is it really that easy to improve potions?
As a pharmacist, Mrs. Primpinier naturally knows how difficult it is to improve potions.
In the end, she simply agreed, and took out a contract recognized by the Ministry of Magic and handed it to Albert for signature. The two parties happily concluded the deal.
However, Mrs. Primpinier pointed out on the magic contract that the newly improved redness and swelling remover needs to be different from the current one, otherwise it will be regarded as Albert's breach of contract, and Mrs. Primpinir has the right to Purchase a potion formula for a certain amount of Galleons.
It is natural to hide this little bit of caution from Albert and Isobel, but Albert doesn't care, because Redness Removal Agent 3.0 will definitely be an ointment, not a potion.
Katrina, who witnessed the whole process of the transaction, was stunned to see that Albert easily got five hundred Galleons, and he actually gave Isobel fifty Galleons very generously.
Katrina opened her mouth, but in the end said nothing and left the teahouse in a daze.
"It went better than I expected." Isobel said to Albert with a smile while drinking milk tea: "But ~IndoMTL.com~ you are really generous."
"You helped all the way, didn't you?" Albert said lightly.
Isobel didn't pay much attention to Galen's problem, and continued to talk about the matter just now. She hoped that Albert could help her sister. This is actually the second time, but because of their relationship, Catri Na was slowly excluded from the original small circle. After all, when the two were nesting together, they did not want a third party to be there, and Isobel meant that she hoped to pull Katrina again.
"That's fine," Albert asked jokingly. "But aren't you afraid that I'll take your sister away?"
"I'm not afraid, I'm still very confident in myself." Isobel kissed Albert's cheek and said, "Also, I don't believe you would do that either."
"Haven't you ever heard a saying that boys are all big radishes?" Albert couldn't help laughing at himself.
"It seems that you are very confident in yourself!"
Isobel didn't care about Albert's self-deprecation, but glanced at the bag of Galleons and said, "Although I like your confidence, but... I think that after the Prim sent Mrs. Neil back , I'll probably open champagne to celebrate!"
"I don't feel like I'm at a loss." Albert said calmly.
Even if you keep the formula of the redness remover in your hand, you can't sell it for five hundred gallons.
"In my reservation, the redness remover is a salve, I believe we can finish the redness remover version 30, you know, my luck has been very good," he said to his girlfriend.
"I like your confidence," Isobel said, "but you're really bad at naming names."
"At that time, remember to help me think of a nice name."
