Smuggling is really profitable.
Kenneth Toller got a large amount of Bafe's Brain Stimulant from somewhere and sold it privately to fifth and seventh grade students, making a lot of Galleons.
Every time they talked about this, Fred, George and Lee Jordan were almost drooling with envy.
Most of the students are really poor. Even if their families are rich, it doesn't mean they are rich. There are very few students like Albert who can grab a handful of Galleons from their pockets at any time.
However, when faced with an important exam that affects their entire life, many parents of students do not mind spending a few Galleons to cheat so that their children can get better grades so that they can find a good job in the Ministry of Magic after graduation.
Because there had been precedents, the students who had purchased the Buffy brain-stimulating agent hid the potion as soon as possible and would not let others know that they had purchased the potion, for fear of being called to Snape's office for tea.
This approach is undoubtedly quite wise. Many people will think, "Why can others cheat and pass the exam easily?", while I have to study hard here
There were quite a few students who secretly went to Professor Snape to report the matter.
Kenneth Toller innocently stated that he was just helping to purchase intelligence-enhancing drugs to speed up everyone's learning.
As we all know, all the students who tried to cheat by taking intelligence enhancers were caught cheating and had to repeat the grade.
Since they dared to sell the Buffy brain stimulant in school, Kenneth Toller was naturally on guard. The incident of the unfortunate Ravenclaw student last time had already reminded him.
Even if Snape investigated the matter, it had nothing to do with him. Kenneth Toller did not sell Buffy's brain-stimulating potion. He was just helping to purchase the intelligence-enhancing potion. The school did not ban this kind of potion, otherwise it would not have appeared in the potion textbook.
"Recently, the Bafe brain stimulant incident has caused a lot of controversy. It has something to do with you, right?" Isobel had just checked her homework and looked up at Albert who was concentrating on writing his paper. Her eyes fell on what he was writing.
"You see through me again." Albert raised his eyebrows.
Ever since they experienced the Forbidden Forest incident together, the two of them often went to the Room of Requirement to do their homework together. After all, they couldn't chat while doing their homework in the library.
"I feel that this matter has something to do with you." Isobel raised her hand and pointed at Albert's parchment, which was a paper on Bafe's brain stimulant.
"I just sold the formula of Bafe's Brain Stimulant to Kenneth Toler," Albert muttered without looking up, "and I don't know where that guy got a bunch of diluted Bafe's Brain Stimulant from."
"I remember that the failed Bafe brain stimulant was poisonous, even if it was diluted." Isobel watched Albert finish writing the paper, then took it and looked at the contents. "Katrina seems to be interested in it. Have you drunk it?"
"Well, undiluted Bafe Brain Refresher can improve brain power to a certain extent." Albert did not deny this, "but it's a little dangerous, just like the Felixir. If there is a small mistake in the preparation, it will become a poison. And if you take too much at one time, it will also have serious side effects. When taking undiluted Bafe Brain Refresher, it is best to do so under the guidance of a professional. One small spoonful at a time is enough."
"Are you planning to sell Bafe Brain Stimulant in school?" The expression on Isobel's face suddenly became strange.
"Could it be... you are waiting for others to take the Bafe brain-stimulating drug and get poisoned?"
"This matter has nothing to do with me." Albert shrugged and said, "Okay, I admit that I have such an idea. I can successfully brew the Bafe Brain Refresher in advance."
"Are you short of Galleons?" Isobel returned the parchment to Albert. She was good at potions, but she had not yet touched upon high-end potions like the Bafey Brain-Stimulant, so she only had a superficial understanding of it.
"You can never have too much money." Albert carefully checked the recipe for the Bafe Brain Stimulant that he had copied. This was the information he got from the skill when he upgraded it to level 2. He planned to write it down and send it to Hertok Dagworth for research.
Without actually practicing it, it is really hard to judge which one is better, after all, even the materials are slightly different.
Perhaps Hertog Dagworth could get some inspiration from this and improve the Bafe's brain stimulant again.
The original formula of the Bafe brain-stimulating agent itself had big problems, otherwise how could a bunch of poisonous potions be prepared
"As long as you inherit Wildsmith, you should be able to get a large fortune."
"It belongs to other people after all. I earn my own money, so I can use it however I want. No one can stop me."
"That's right." Isobel nodded.
After Albert finished, the two left the Room of Requirement together. Not long after they separated, Fred, George and Lee Jordan jumped out.
These three guys actually used the Disillusionment Charm to hide nearby, leaving Albert at a loss for words.
"You guys are dating, and that person just now didn't seem to be Katrina?" Fred said excitedly, "I caught you and you still refused to admit it."
"We are just studying the papers given by the club."
"Really?" George looked doubtful.
"By the way, who was that just now?"
"Isobel, Katrina's sister, and a Ravenclaw genius who joins several clubs with me." Albert noticed the expressions of the three and couldn't help but roll his eyes at them. "You can't help me with those papers, so I naturally need to find a powerful guy to help me take a look."
"Also, you guys aren't going to be so bored as to wait for me here, are you?"
"Something's happened," Fred announced cheerfully. "A Slytherin has been poisoned by Kenneth Toller's Buffy's Brain Potions and has been taken to the hospital wing."
"When did it happen?" The four of them returned to the Gryffindor common room together.
"When you were on a date." George's face was full of gloating smile: "You were not there at the time, so you didn't see that Snape's expression was completely distorted."
"Kenneth Toler is in big trouble now!" Lee Jordan's face was full of gloating smile.
Albert was quite speechless. These three guys were just envious and jealous of Kenneth Toller for making a fortune. They hoped to see him in trouble and actually started making sarcastic remarks.
"It seems that Kenneth Toler made a big mistake." Albert couldn't help shaking his head.
"What's wrong?"
"Normally, after preparing the Felixir and the Bafey Brain-Stimulating Potion, the wizard who needs to brew the potion will try it himself."
It’s a bit like food made from puffer fish. The chef has to eat it himself first to see if it will be poisoned, and only after making sure it is safe can he give it to others.
The same thing was done by Hertog Dagworth, who prepared the Bafe brain stimulant.
