Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 425: Grab money

Views:

After hearing what Albert said, the two were slightly excited for a while, but when they thought about their five Galleons going down the drain, Fred and George became depressed again. The quality of the redness and swelling remover they made was not just bad, it was simply a pile of garbage.

"It's too difficult. The formula of the redness and swelling reducing agent is even more difficult than expected. I finally understand why you want to make the formula public!" Fred sat next to Albert and sulked. He was angry with himself. He didn't think it through carefully and let Albert get him into trouble instead.

Most students simply cannot configure it. Even if they can make it, the cost of raw materials and the finished product are less than buying a bottle themselves.

What’s worse is that the shelf life of redness-reducing agents is actually not very long. If the redness-reducing agents cannot be turned into ointment form, it will be very inconvenient both in storage and use.

This is why Albert sells the redness reducer in small bottles.

After hearing this, Lee Jordan couldn't help laughing. He felt that Kenneth Toller was also going to be in trouble, and the twins became even more depressed.

Albert looked at the lost twins and said meaningfully: "You should have a long-term vision."

"I think we have a long-term vision," the three said in unison.

Every time Albert talked about making money, he asked them to look at the long term and not focus on the immediate benefits.

"By the way, the bottle of undiluted pus of the Babo tuber that you bought is with me. I will improve the redness and swelling reducing agent when I have time." Albert took away the raw materials that the twins bought from Mundungus Fletcher without any hesitation. He planned to take time to study the redness and swelling reducing agent version 2.0. With the help of the panel, it would be really not difficult to improve the redness and swelling reducing agent.

He planned to wait for Kenneth Toler to help expand the market, and then launch the redness and swelling reducer version 2.0 after the other party's reputation deteriorated.

Well, this time I’m going to study with Isobel again. Girls are always very motivated on how to make themselves more beautiful.

"If Madam Primpenier's Beauty Potion Shop is willing to cooperate with you, she will definitely make a lot of money."

Looking at the Redness and Swelling Eliminator Version 2.0 in Albert's hand, Isobel couldn't help but sigh.

It only took a short time for Albert to complete the improvement of the redness and swelling reducing agent. Several ingredients in the original formula were replaced, and ginger and menthol were added. The skin would feel cool when used, and the appearance of the medicine was more like ointment.

Most of the produced version 2.0 of the redness and swelling reducing agent was taken away by Isobel. She gave some to her sister Isobel and some to her friends, helping Aimaiti to promote version 2.0 of the redness and swelling reducing agent.

Soon, all the girls in the school knew that there was a better anti-redness agent, and they came to Albert to pre-order the anti-redness agent version 2.0.

It wasn't long before the Weasley twins had a pre-order list, and most of the girls generously paid three Sickles in advance.

The scene of the three of them counting Sickles in the Gryffindor common room made Ron, who was playing the wizard flag with Harry, very envious.

"Wow!" Ron asked in amazement, "Where did you get so much money?"

"This is Albert's money," Fred explained, "We're just helping to sell some things."

They won't tell others that this is reserve funds for opening future stores.

"What are you selling?" Hermione asked curiously. She found that Albert was really good at making money.

"Redness and Swelling Eliminator Version 2.0," George cleared his throat and said, "It can help you solve the problem of acne that has been bothering you for a long time."

"How much?" Hermione asked.

"Three cents for the advance purchase fee." Fred looked Hermione over and said, "You don't need it now, so don't take up other people's share."

"You want to acquire the formula for Redness Eliminator Version 2.0?" Albert looked at Kenneth Toler with a hint of surprise on his face.

"Yes." Kenneth Toller nodded seriously.

“What do you want that for?” Albert couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. “I dare say that if you dare to make Redness and Swelling Eliminator Version 2.0 and sell it, you will definitely lose all your pants.”

"Will you sell it?"

"Sell it. Why not buy it? Maybe I can come up with version 3.0 of the redness and swelling reducer in a while." Albert said in a joking tone.

Kenneth Toler opened his mouth and suddenly didn't want to talk to the guy in front of him anymore.

Is it really that easy to improve potions

Kenneth Toller didn't think so, but since the other party was Albert, he had to consider this issue.

"Please think about it. I won't sell it if the price is too low." Albert kindly reminded: "After all, after selling the potion formula to you, I can't make money from it anymore, unless I really develop the Redness and Swelling Eliminator Version 3.0. But improving a magic potion is not as easy as you think."

"100 Galleons." Kenneth Toller gritted his teeth and quoted a price.

"I want this price." Albert said with a smile, looking up and shaking his hand.

"You are robbing me." Kenneth Toller was stunned when he saw the five raised fingers. His face turned red. "Can't the price be lower?"

"If it were anyone else, I would prescribe him a thousand Galleons." Albert said with a sincere expression, "Redness and Swelling Eliminator Version 2.0 is already a mature product."

What Albert said is actually not wrong. Even some boys are already using the Redness and Swelling Eliminator 2.0 to eliminate their acne. After all, everyone has an acne heart. This is a long-term benefit and is undoubtedly worth the price.

Kenneth Toller opened his mouth, but ultimately did not agree immediately.

"Go back and think about it. Let me know if you think it's acceptable." Albert patted Kenneth Toller's suggestion and said, "Actually, I don't recommend you buy the potion formula. It's more practical to spend some time improving the redness and swelling remover yourself."

Kenneth Toler rolled his eyes at Albert and turned away.

"Are you really going to sell the formula?" Fred couldn't help but ask. He didn't expect that Albert's formula for the redness and swelling reducing agent would be sold for 500 Galleons.

"Why not? We can't mass-produce it anyway, so it's worth selling it in exchange for Galleons." Albert explained to the three of them.

"What about next?" George asked stupidly, "Is there anything better?"

"There will definitely be better ones in the future. I believe that I will be able to improve the redness and swelling remover version 3.0 before I graduate. During this period before graduation, I think the guy who bought the formula should be able to make back the cost and make some extra money.

There's nothing wrong with it as long as everyone benefits.

"Wait, you mean Kenneth Toller bought the formula instead of making it himself?" Fred seemed to realize something and couldn't help asking.

"That's definitely not the case. You can figure it out with your brain. Unless Kenneth Toller's head was caught in the door, there's no way he could have bought it himself. It's probably from a beauty potion shop. For example, Madam Primpynel's Beauty Potion Shop in Diagon Alley."

"Madam Primpynell's Beauty Potions Shop?" Lee Jordan asked blankly. "Is there another shop like this in Diagon Alley?"

"At 275 Diagon Alley," said Albert.

"It's easy to make money from women. They are willing to pay a lot of Galleons for their beauty," Albert explained.

I don't know where Mrs. Primpianier heard about this. I think she probably wanted to monopolize this industry, so she spent money to acquire the formula.

"But isn't five hundred Galleons too expensive?" Fred felt that one hundred Galleons was already very high.

"Expensive? No, not at all. She will be willing to find us. I dare say she is great and will not be short of money."

The three of them looked at each other, all shocked by Albert's idea. It turned out that this guy was planning to sell the formula to make a fortune from the beginning

This is simply a money grab!
