Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 832: The insider and the insider

While those with ulterior motives were looking for Albert in the venue, he was taking Isobel to visit the "Alchemy Achievements" in the display cabinet one by one, to see if he could learn from other alchemists. Inspiration, idea or technique.

Hundreds of alchemy results dazzled him, there are wizards who claim to be able to control magic poorly, and even Squibs can use magic wands smoothly.

It is said that the inventor of the wand also participated in this competition. As a result, a staff member exploded while testing the wand, and the staff member and the unlucky people around were all embarrassed by the explosion.

What made Albert even more speechless was that someone actually claimed to have created the Philosopher's Stone and showed everyone a red stone.

Of course, no one took the display case's Philosopher's Stone seriously, and everyone knew it was just a silly joke.

Others claim to have invented a remedy to remove the curse of unicorn blood, and brew the blood of unicorns into a magical potion that can prolong life.

Albert thinks that it is a bottle of ordinary unicorn blood, and the so-called reliever is nothing but a powerful recovery agent made from the roots of Mandrake. However, this thing obviously cannot remove the terrible curse brought by the blood of the unicorn.

To a certain extent, the blood of unicorns does prolong life, but the terrible curse is so terrifying that not many people want to be half-dead.

What surprised Albert most was a metal lump. The introduction on the parchment said that it was a magic iron invented by a wizard himself. It was said that it could make the magic attached to the magic iron durable and stable. The effect of the magic iron released a floating spell on the magic iron, making it float in the air.

There are indeed some excellent metal craftsmen among human wizards, but fairies are obviously better at using magic to process metals. The so-called magic iron in the display cabinet in front of them is somewhat similar to the iron forged by fairies.

Later, Isobel secretly told Albert that the alchemist who was suspected of being a metal craftsman was actually a guy in the gray area.

The so-called "magic iron" is actually a fairy iron.

That guy controlled a goblin who knew how to forge goblin iron tools to forge iron tools for him, and he put the piece of "magic iron" on display here, just to take the opportunity to become famous and make a fortune.

Not long after, Albert discovered another metal called magic copper.

According to that person, magic copper is highly malleable, can become soft and light after special processing, has memory, and is highly tolerant of magic.

Well, it's actually the metal raw material for making the Golden Snitch.

Bowman Wright, who shares the same name as the inventor of the Snitch, is also a metal craftsman, but he's not here to show you the Snitch, but to promote a treasure chest. It is said that it can be used to store those things that people do not want to be found, and the entire treasure chest can resist and isolate magic detection.

Certain old wizarding families always have contraband that they don't want the Ministry of Magic to know about. They are the best customers, and the kind that can get a hard knock.

However, Albert thinks this thing is very similar to the box that Mr. Lemay used to store important items. He has two there, and he also knows how to make such a box. It is not very difficult, it is really difficult. It is how to get magic copper, and I don't know if Mr. Lemay knows how to make magic copper.

Albert decided to write a letter to the other party after returning to talk about this experience, and by the way, mention the matter of magic copper.

There are actually many alchemy achievements on display at the venue, such as the cross that claims to be able to drive away dark creatures, the powder that claims to be able to make people smarter with a single sip, the ointment that claims to remove werewolf scratches, and all kinds of messy things. Although it looks very bluffing, everyone knows that 80% of those are fake.

Before Albert and Isobel had finished walking around the display case, they were blocked, and the wizard kindly expressed to Albert that he wanted to cooperate with him to sell mandrakes.

Albert euphemistically stated that he needed time to think about it, and citing the high cost of mandrake and the long brewing time, he indicated that he had no plans to mass-produce it.

However, Albert still left his contact information, giving the other party the illusion that he was considering whether to cooperate with them.

This kind of thing, no one will settle it all at once.

Moreover, the cost of mandrake wine is indeed a little expensive, and Albert does not intend to follow a policy of people-friendly.

After all, the manufacturing cycle is long, the materials are expensive, and the sales volume itself is not too high. If you can't grow mandrakes by yourself, it is definitely a loss-making business, but growing mandrakes itself is not simple thing.

It's better to raise the price. Selling less may not make any money. Just like Flux will always have a price and no market. After all, there is never a shortage of rich wizards in the magic world.

"If those people knew that you were deliberately delaying time, they would probably be so angry!"

Isobel saw through Albert's careful thought at a glance. He didn't reject anyone, and he didn't offend anyone. Anyway, it was just one word "drag", until the other party was impatient, and the other party gave up on his own.

As for the answer others want.

Sorry, Albert is still in school, please wait two more years and talk about this when Albert graduates from Hogwarts.

Although the practice is disgusting, Albert has a fair reason to shirk, and others are embarrassed to say anything.

Who made him immature and graduating?

Even if they had the patience to wait another two years, the Albert at that time would have long since disappeared, so they could not find anyone at all. The reason was naturally the fear of being persecuted by the Dark Lord.

No one can blame him, after all, life safety is more important.

So, two years have passed.

Four years is enough to kill most people's thoughts. As for the real desire to sell Mandrake, Albert has no shortage of channels, and a few people will refuse a profitable business.

During lunch, the staff of the International Alchemy Congress took the initiative to find Albert and informed him that he had passed the preliminary review and needed to provide the organizer with detailed information on the flying ointment, so that the Alchemy Research Center could hurry up Validate the data. In the end, the alchemy research center also provided a document on patents. Once the alchemy research center has verified the publicity through the information provided by him, the patent certification can be carried out.

However, what puzzled Albert the most was...

"You're saying that I have a good chance of winning the Gold Award for pioneering contributions, and I'd better have a paper ready, maybe a few minutes on stage?"

I don't know if it was temptation or something else.

Anyway, when he heard this from the staff member who dealt with him, Albert almost couldn't suppress the surprise on his face. Even if the other party said that he admired him, he still felt that the other party was trying to lure him to hand over the formula of flying ointment, and even the organizer said so to every participating alchemist.

Moreover, the guy in front of him actually knew how to use Occlumency, and Albert didn't see anything in his eyes.

"Sure enough, it's all a lie."

Although Albert was already mentally prepared, he couldn't help but curled his lips. When he readily handed over the formula of the flying ointment, Albert deliberately made the manufacturing method of the flying ointment a little more refined and difficult.

"You seem to be very busy." Catherine drank an ice drink and motioned Albert to sit down. She had something to say to him.

"What's the matter?"

"I heard that after the official academic conference is held tomorrow, the winner will be announced to the public. I originally wanted to tell you in advance, but... Forget it, have you understood this?"

"I know. However, flying ointment is just like that for me," Albert took the black tea Isobel handed over, took a sip, and said calmly: "That thing is only a semi-finished product, maybe I will later Will improve it into flying paint, which will be more convenient to use. Of course, the Alchemy Research Center may help me with the process."

"It's good for you to know for yourself, although I don't think you will come to the competition without knowing anything." Kathleen knew about Albert's relationship with Sierra, and the old man obviously wouldn't do it on purpose. Going to pit Albert, a lot of things should be made clear to Albert, and Catherine is just reminding him now that Nicholas told her about these things.

"I heard that there are 12 contestants in this competition, of which four are under the age of 30." Valeria sat down opposite Isobel with a cone, and said what she had just heard. , "You should have a good chance of winning the Gold Award for Pioneering Contribution."

"No, this award is very pitiful, but it's not calculated like that." Catherine disagreed with Valeria's statement, "If it doesn't matter, or the alchemy results handed in are not good enough, they will not award the development at all. Sexual Contribution Gold Award.”

"I suddenly found out that the Potions Tournament is actually quite cute," Valeria couldn't help but complain.

"Did they tell you, maybe they'll give you a few minutes." Kathleen didn't pay attention to Valeria's complaints, and continued: "They have said similar things to every young wizard who participated."

"It's not hard to guess." Albert wasn't surprised at all.

"If the alchemy results are promising, they will really let you speak on stage for a few minutes. If you can do well in this part, you can easily win the Gold Award for Pioneering Contribution."

Kathleen added, "Of course, you don't need to worry too much, after all, your backstage is also very hard, as long as you don't make mistakes when you speak, there should be no problem.

"What if the contestants don't have a backstage?" Valeria asked, blinking curiously.

"Unless the alchemy results are recognized by most people, it is difficult to win awards." Kathleen told a cruel truth.

No way, international awards are not so easy to win.

Although insiders know what's going on, outsiders don't know what's going on. They just think that whoever has won the Gold Award for Pioneering Contribution at the Cairo International Alchemy Conference sounds like a great deal.

At this time, Mr. Aria, who had a relationship yesterday, came over, said hello to Albert, and had a brief chat, expressing the hope that he would have the opportunity to talk to him tomorrow. Albert exchanges research results.

This time, Mr. Aria didn't take too much thought, and planned to take this opportunity to make friends with Albert. After today's events, as long as you are not a fool, you can see that Albert has a lot of history, and he is still very powerful. Genius, there is no harm in making such a friend.

After Arria left, Catherine suddenly said, "Have you seen the research results of that Mr. Arria?"

After a brief recollection, Albert remembered Aria's alchemy achievement. It seemed to be a messenger. It was said that the information was transmitted mathematically on parchment through the resonance effect of two stones.

"I think he's probably the guy who might be a threat to you out of all the players." Valeria had to admit that the communication technique was indeed much faster than the owl postman.

"Hmm." Albert casually won.

"What do you mean?" Valeria asked, "I'm betting on you to win the Gold Award for Pioneering Contribution, so don't let me suddenly lose the chain!"

"Is this bar open for gambling?"

"Basically all world-class games have bets," Kathleen said with a smile. "By the way, I'm betting on you too, so don't let us down."

"Is Isobel buying it too?" Albert asked curiously.

"No, I didn't know about it."

"Is it reliable to be a villager?" Albert considered the possibility of taking the opportunity to make a fortune.

"It's just a private game," Kathleen said.

"Forget it." Albert temporarily gave up this opportunity to make money.

"You can win, right!" Valeria stared straight at Albert, "We have more than half of our assets, if you cause us to lose, during the Quidditch competition, we may only be able to Depends on you."

"Really."

"What's real?"

"I mean you put a lot of money in?" Albert asked.

"Not much."

"Score me two tiers after a win," Albert said.

"What if you lose?"

"If you lose, you will lose money."

"You want to prostitute for free?"

"I'm working hard to make you win money."

"It seems that you are very confident!" Kathleen said ~IndoMTL.com~ Actually, I also think that communication technology is quite powerful. "

"His technology seems to be very advanced, but it's actually that way, and it's still difficult to popularize." Able's simple evaluation, "As far as I know, Muggles have had similar technology for a long time. It is better to improve the Muggle technology to see if it can improve a magic version of the fax machine." Albert did not lie, many things of wizards are actually improved Muggle over there.

"I don't remember that you already have similar technology?" Isobel, who had not spoken much, suddenly said.

"Fax technology?" Valeria asked suspiciously.

"No, it's information transfer technology," Isobel corrected. "When we were still in school, our chat tool was invented by Albert. It used the function of transmitting information by changing the letters on the magic metal sheet through the transformation spell." Isobel recalled, "I remember It seems to be called a newsletter bookmark. That thing is more reliable than Owl, and it can be used to chat in class or at night. ."

"Cough, anyway, come on, as long as we win and make money, we'll divide you 20%." After Valeria and Kathleen looked at each other, for some reason, they always felt a little full. .

Isobel's wave really caught them off guard.
