Chapter 206： Prepare to cause trouble

Chapter 206 Preparing for trouble

Percy did not agree to lend his pet Scabbers to Albert after all, even though Fred said he would give him some cocaine as a fee for borrowing Scabbers. This was also within Albert's expectation. Although the Weasley family was a bit poor, they were pretty good to their family and pets, so he never thought it would succeed.

 “What experiment do you want to do with mice?”

On the way to the herbal medicine class, Lee Jordan asked curiously what had just happened. Why did Albert need a live mouse? And the experiment he mentioned is also curious.

"Mandrake." Albert looked around and explained in a low voice after making sure no one was around, "I used the magic item I showed you last time to record Mandrake's cry and planned to test it with mice. Let’s check if the recorded sound is valid.”

George next to him opened his mouth in surprise, and Fred's eyes shone. When they arrived in front of the greenhouse, he asked aloud: "Will the cry of mandrake be tested to make people fall into coma? "

"Yeah." Albert nodded imperceptibly, with a strange smile on his face: "The sound is hard to guard against, isn't it?"

"If it works, it really only takes one careless move to get you into trouble." Fred put away his umbrella and walked into the greenhouse. Next to him, George was pretending to rub goosebumps on his hands. Lee Jordan had a look of astonishment on his face and couldn't help but Asked in a low voice: "Why would you want to create such a thing?"

"Why?" Albert touched his chin and thought for a while before he answered seriously: "I always feel that I will use this kind of thing."

 “Will it be useful?” The three of them looked at each other, unable to understand what Albert said and his thinking mode.

"I can do without power." Albert said softly, "But I must have power."

When he said this, Albert suddenly wanted to laugh. He knew that Fred and the others might not understand, so he took advantage of Professor Pomona Sprout's class before he started and continued: " You may not need a lot of Galleons, but you definitely want to have a lot of Galleons, right? It's the same thing."

 “I sure wish I had a lot of galleons.” Fred and George looked at each other and couldn't help but murmured.

The Weasley family is not rich, and the pocket money Arthur can give to his children is very limited.

 Soon after, Professor Sprout began to teach everyone about jumping toadstools. This mushroom has weak toxins and a weak mind itself. Well, as its name suggests, it also has the ability to jump.

 Somewhat like a Bowtruckle, but closer to a mushroom.

“The professors at Hogwarts are indeed very rich.” Albert looked at the jumping toadstools assigned to him and couldn’t help but sigh.

“Why do you say that?” George reached out and grabbed the jumping toadstool that wanted to jump away, and tried to bury it in the soil.

The jumping toadstool does not live on dead wood, but in moist soil.

Well, there need to be animal carcasses in the soil, which means that this mushroom actually eats meat in a sense.

The rainy season is the best breeding season for jumping toadstools. Professor Sprout is teaching everyone how to deal with jumping toadstools correctly and enable them to reproduce artificially.

"This stuff is also one of the main raw materials of Baffy's brain-reviving agent." Albert explained casually. "It is a very effective medicine. After taking it, it can significantly enhance the brain power of the user. It is a medicine specially designed for cheating in exams. Of course, this medicine is basically not sold on the market, because if it cannot be brewed correctly, Those who take it will be severely injured, and it is as rare as Felixir."

"By the way, the recipe for Bafe's brain-refreshing potion is: rune snake eggs, dragon claw powder, jumping toadstools and frog brains." Albert muttered, "Okay, I think the ingredients look quite disgusting. ."

"Baffy's Brain Refreshing Potion? What is that?" George didn't understand what Albert called the Baffy's Brain Refreshing Potion.

"It's a potion that can make you smarter." Albert explained simply: "You will become very smart after drinking it, and even after the effect of the drug ends, your brain's thinking will be slightly enhanced."

 “Good stuff!” Fred’s eyes lit up.

"Of course it is a good thing, but that kind of thing is also difficult to prepare. Once the preparation is wrong, the medicine will be harmful to the brain." Albert explained, "By the way, for a thing as big as your hand, one requires three Galleons.”

“Three galleons?” Fred and George’s eyes shone. They never thought that jumping toadstools could be so valuable.

“You know it very well.” Li Jordan couldn’t help but complain, “Are you planning to make money by configuring Baffy’s brain-rejuvenating agent? I think those rich guys will definitely be willing to pay for it?”

“You actually guessed it.” Albert pretended to be shocked and looked at Lee Jordan.

 Actually, it’s not a joke.

If you didn’t have this idea a while ago, you already have it now, because Albert found that there were two more task panels on his task panel.

 Expand your brain

 You have discovered a magic potion that can make you smarter, why not try brewing it? Although you are already smart enough, taking Bafe Brain Booster will make you even smarter.

  Reward: 1000 experience, 1 skill point, and obtain the skill of active thinking.

Black marketeer

  Buffy's Brain Refreshing Potion is one of the potions that the Ministry of Magic prohibits private preparation and use. Buffy's Brain Refreshing Potion is sold to students at Hogwarts to help them better pass the difficult exams.

Reward: 500 experience, 1 skill point, 100 galleons.

 “You know how to make Baffy Refresher?” Fred asked curiously.

 “Of course not, I was just kidding.”

 “You are the only one who believes in ghosts.” The three of them rolled their eyes at Albert.

“Do you think there are jumping toadstools in the Forbidden Forest?” Fred suddenly asked.

"There should be some!" Albert thought for a while and replied, "This season happens to be when the jumping toadstools multiply in large numbers. However, it is not easy to find the jumping toadstools.

Moreover, you also need to know how to preserve them, and most importantly, even if you find them, who are you going to sell them to? "

 “This?” The three of them were stunned for a moment.

 Yeah, who are you selling it to?

 It must be able to be sold in order to be considered profitable. If you can't sell it, it's useless even if you get jumping toadstools.

 A longer silence.

 Yes, this is the most important thing.

If medicinal materials can be processed into finished products, the price will only be higher.

 Turning the jumping toadstools into the finished product of Baffy's Brain Refresher, he believed that a bunch of fifth- and seventh-grade students would rush to buy Baffy's Brain Refresher.

"How about giving it a try?" Albert looked at the people around him and asked tentatively.

 “What to try?”

 “Make Baffy’s brain-reviving potion.” Albert whispered, “But before that, we need to get the jumping toadstool first.”

"This is a good idea. We believe that with your talent in potions." Fred raised his hands in agreement. He liked Albert to lead them to make money.

　　The three of them regretted the last time they elected ministers.

“With a little research, we should be able to create a Buffy brain-rejuvenating agent.” Lee Jordan was equally confident in Albert.

“But how can we get other materials?” George asked, “Purchase them with money?”

"You can't buy rune snake eggs." Albert shook his head. "They are prohibited items. They can only be found on the black market, but they can easily be deceived by fakes."

 “Snape’s private treasury?” Fred suggested. This suggestion is simply audacious.

"Hush!" Albert signaled them not to talk about it here, especially if they wanted to break into Snape's private treasury, they just didn't want to live.

 “This is a good idea.” Li Qiaodan laughed maliciously, “However, the difficulty is a bit high.”

 “I don’t think we’ll fail,” said Fred.

In fact, Fred and others believed that Albert could succeed. They all knew that Albert also had high attainments in potions, and he also had a relationship with the famous potion master Hertok Dagworth. Correspondence.

 This undoubtedly brings confidence to a few people. There was no way, they all knew that Albert never did anything meaningless, let alone a loss-making business.

Moreover, he has the ability and the start-up capital.
