Hetok was very efficient. After receiving the letter, he mailed the Felix Felicis directly to Albert and quoted the market standard price of 30 Galleons. That bottle of Felix Felicis could last for 24 hours, but the potion master reminded him in the letter not to take an overdose of Felix Felicis, otherwise it would lead to dizziness, recklessness, arrogance and many other sequelae.
“The price is much lower than expected!”
Albert was very satisfied with the price of 30 Galleons per bottle, knowing that the price Hetok gave him was actually very low. The so-called standard market price was just for show. After all, there was no market for the price. Even if the price was doubled on the black market, it would probably be difficult to buy the Felixir.
"30 Galleons is still low?"
When the Weasley twins heard Albert not speaking human language, their expressions became extremely complicated. They stared at the small package in Albert's hand and muttered, "I guess you're the only one who would say something like that."
Lee Jordan urged, "Open the package quickly!"
Albert opened the package carefully. Inside was a tightly protected medicine bottle. The golden potion looked so charming.
There's no way, the stuff in the medicine bottle is far more expensive than gold!
"I think with your level of potion skills, you can make your own Felixir and sell it in the future, which will definitely make a lot of money." Fred couldn't remember how many times he had said this.
If his own skills in making potions were not so average, he would also like to make the Foling Potion and sell it.
"This must be the most perfect product. Who would refuse good luck?" George sighed softly. He seemed to see a river of gold flowing from the golden elixir.
"Don't be silly. The Felicityl potion is not allowed to circulate in the outside world." Lee Jordan looked at Albert's departing back and shattered their fantasies without any hesitation.
He had not forgotten the process of brewing the Felixir in "Advanced Potion Making". The long list of ingredients alone was dizzying, and it had to be slowly brewed for six months. There could not be any mistakes in the whole process, otherwise the failed potion would turn into a pile of unknown poison, making all the previous efforts and hard work go to waste.
"I don't think this will be difficult for Albert. Don't forget, his current level of potion making is already very high, and it will only get higher in another two years. As long as he is willing, it is only a matter of time before he surpasses Snape." The twins had no doubt about Albert's level in potions. At most, they wondered whether it was worth spending half a year on brewing the Felix Felix. This was also the reason why there were so few pharmacists who truly mastered the Felix Felix, as it took a long six months to brew the Felix Felix.
How many times can a person make mistakes? How many six months can he have
What's more, the pharmacist who prepares the Felixir needs to be the first to take it, which is somewhat similar to the chef who prepares pufferfish dishes.
If it fails, God knows whether he will be sent directly to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries for treatment.
Ron, who was playing wizard chess with Harry, finally couldn't help but ask, "What is that golden potion?"
Fred and George noticed the curiosity in Ron's eyes. They deliberately put on a straight face and said seriously, "That's the Felixir, the legendary lucky potion. When you are in your sixth year, you will learn how to make the Felixir in Advanced Potion Making."
"Potion of luck?"
Ron really didn't want to believe that there was a magic potion that could bring good luck to people.
In fact, Harry, who was sitting opposite Ron, was also very interested in the lucky potion. He had never seen a potion of that color before.
"Of course!" George patted Ron's shoulder and said teasingly, "You don't know, that only shows that you don't have much knowledge. As far as we know, there is also a potion that can make people smarter. Last time, a student tried to use it to cheat in the exam."
"real?"
"Of course it's true." Lee Jordan said without hesitation: "Dragon Claw Powder has a similar effect. It is the easiest thing for students at Hogwarts to buy. I remember that a pint seemed to be ten Galleons."
"Ten Galleons a pint?" Ron repeated. "Ten Galleons..."
At this moment, Ron felt like a poor guy.
To this day, the savings in his pocket have never exceeded one Galleon.
"How much does a bottle of luck potion cost?" Harry asked Fred in a low voice. Well, Harry thought he might need a little luck.
"You want to buy it?" Fred looked at Harry in disbelief.
"yes!"
"Thirty Galleons a bottle," Lee Jordan said quickly.
"If it really works, the price is not too expensive!" Harry muttered softly. He felt that if the lucky potion could help him catch the heir of Slytherin and clear himself of suspicion, this price would be completely acceptable.
Ron was a little dumbfounded. He just heard them say that the small bottle of luck potion actually cost thirty Galleons.
Oh my god!
That’s thirty Galleons!
Harry actually said the price wasn’t too expensive!
At this moment, Ron was completely stunned.
"Where can I buy the Felicis Follicle?" Harry looked at the three people expectantly.
"I don't know. You have to ask Albert. It is said that he got it from a friend." Fred and George couldn't help but look at Harry again, as if they had just realized that there was such an invisible rich man around them.
As soon as Albert came out of the dormitory, Harry immediately went up to him and said he wanted to buy the Felicis.
"What do you want the Felicis Lucidum for?" Albert looked at the wealthy Harry in confusion. He felt that he was just an ignorant fat sheep. If he had extra Felicis Lucidum, he would definitely not mind ripping him off.
"They say that the Felicis can bring luck!" Harry ran his fingers over Fred, George and Lee Jordan and said sincerely: "I heard you spent thirty Galleons. Can you..."
"No." Albert refused flatly.
"What can't you do? What are you discussing?"
Hermione, who had just returned to the common room, looked at Harry and Albert curiously, and then cast an inquiring look at Ron.
"Harry wants to buy a luck potion?" Ron said dryly. "It seems that a small bottle costs thirty Galleons."
"Luck potion?" Hermione looked at Harry in confusion and asked, "What do you want the luck potion for?"
"Maybe, a little luck can help us catch the heir of Slytherin, or find the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets." Harry did not hide the fact that he bought the Felix Felicis more to resolve the attack. He hoped that Albert could help him get a bottle, or sell it to him directly. Even if the price was a little high, it was acceptable.
"Didn't you tell him?" Hermione looked at Albert in confusion.
"What?"
Harry and Ron were both confused.
"The Felixir cannot bring real luck to people, so even if you use it, it cannot bring you real luck!" Albert explained, "So, even if you drink it, it cannot help you find the secret room directly. Its effect is just to make you feel happy and satisfied during the duration of the drug's effect. Moreover, the Felixir is in short supply, and I can't shamelessly let others sell me a bottle at a low price."
“Can’t bring true luck to people?”
"Do you really think there is a magic potion that can bring good luck to people?" Albert said unhappily. "If you don't believe it, you can go to the library and borrow "Advanced Magic Potion Making". It contains a detailed introduction to the Lucky Potion and the method of brewing it."
Hermione saw Harry turn and walk towards the entrance of the common room, so she quickly followed and asked, "Harry, where are you going?"
"library."
Harry's meaning was obvious, he planned to go over and confirm whether Albert was lying.
Hermione looked at the formula of the Felicis Follicis, sighed and explained, "The so-called 'good luck' that the Felicis Follicis can bring is actually mainly to significantly improve your abilities in various aspects, such as social skills, magical abilities, reaction abilities, etc., so that people will feel that everything goes smoothly."
Harry opened his mouth, suddenly feeling a little lost.
"Is the Felicis really that expensive?" Ron was very curious. The high price of thirty Galleons was really overwhelming for him.
If possible, he also wanted to learn potions now so that he could make a fortune by making and selling potions.
"That's normal. The Felicis Potion needs to be brewed for six months, and nothing can go wrong during that time." Hermione didn't understand why Ron cared so much about the price, but she still explained, "So it's basically not available on the market."
"Where did Albert get the Felicis?"
"He knows a lot of Potions masters like Snape. There must be someone who can brew Felix Felicis, and those people will have some stock." It was not difficult for Hermione to guess where Albert got the Felix Felicis, but she just didn't understand why Albert would spend a lot of money to buy it.
"I think if it were you, you might be able to..."
Ron looked at Hermione expectantly, as if he wanted to hear from her: Actually, I can do it, too.
"No, I can't." Hermione said bluntly: "The Felicis Felix is too complicated. I think Snape is the only one in the whole school who can succeed."
At this moment, Harry and Ron kept silent.
