The final agreement with Dumbledore was to provide three more bottles of high-grade potions and one-third of the potions needed for the infirmary each year, in addition to normal classes, with Hogwarts taking care of the materials.

This is a very demanding condition, although there are not many varieties of potions commonly used in the infirmary, and the same potions can be prepared at once, but some potions cannot be stored for a long time.

Moreover, high-grade potions generally take a long time to boil and prepare, generally taking at least a month, while some even take longer to complete, such as the elixir of fortune takes half a year.

This means that Zhang Jin may not have much spare time in the future, and there will be no rest and holidays.

So, you should know why Severus didn't wash his hair...... That's right, they were all squeezed by Dumbledore, and they were still very beautiful and good boys when they went to school!

However, although the conditions are harsh, there are not many options for Zhang Jin, unless he wants to go to Azkaban for a spin, so there is no room for maneuver for Zhang Jin, and it is impossible to refuse.

Dumbledore was sure of him.

This would save Hogwarts a lot of money, as high-grade potions were already expensive, not to mention healing potions made by the Potions Master, even if they were only low-level potions.

For example, each bottle of the potion made by Professor Slughorn is expensive, and there is no price in the market, and it is often impossible to buy it.

Dumbledore also worked hard enough to open up sources and reduce expenditure, and did not miss any opportunity that could be used.

Speaking of which, the Order of the Phoenix is also miserable enough, and when confronting the Death Eaters, it is often the people of the Order of the Phoenix who rush to the front, and the casualties are also the most serious.

However, with the exception of some part-time jobs that were Aurors themselves, the Order of the Phoenix did not receive any wages or subsidies, and worked on a voluntary basis for several years.

And even if the Order of the Phoenix doesn't pay people's salaries, its daily consumption expenses are very large: if you are injured, you need to be treated, all kinds of potions need money, and the purchase of some magic items also costs money, not to mention that if there is a sacrifice, Dumbledore must at least have a little subsidy.

If the family is already good, such as the Potter family and Sirius. Black still has the Longbottom family, but there are also many poor people, such as the Weasleys and Remus. Lu Ping, et al.

None of these Gryffindor lions would make money, either before or during the fight against the Death Eaters, so Dumbledore had to figure it out on his own.

Presumably, Old Deng embezzled Hogwarts public funds, but in the original books, it was not until Harry entered the school, Lucius. Malfoy still often threatened Dumbledore with this.

In this way, it can only help the poor but not the poor, so the Weasley family has become a well-known poor household in the entire wizarding world.

And the poor werewolf professor can only find his own way out and support himself.

Now that the infirmary is responsible for some of the potions she needs, Madam Pomfrey herself can prepare some of them, and this part of the cost can be used to subsidize the Order of the Phoenix.

Potions and potions materials are very expensive in the wizarding world, and now that they have provided some potions and brought their own materials, plus the Forbidden Forest is a treasure trove of super-large potion materials, and Professor Sprout of Herbology can grow some of them, well, if you think about it, Hogwarts doesn't seem to have any expenses other than paying salaries to employees and food and drinks for students.

It took Dumbledore several years to get it done, which shows how badly the loss of the Order of the Phoenix was.

And finally defeated Voldemort, but Peaches was defeated by the Minister of Magic, Millicent. Bagno snatched it, and it is estimated that if he replaced a person who had already been angry, he would kill Minister Bagno.

It can be seen that Dumbledore's mercy allowed Bagno to live until retirement, and did not push him down until the change of office.

Thinking of these messy things, Zhang Jin became even more determined to cooperate with Lucius, he didn't want to be chained to school all the time like the original Severus.

There's not even time to take a shower!

It's not easy to come to the magic world, and it's not a weak chicken who is afraid of death, so you have to walk around and enjoy a magical scenery.

After sorting out all kinds of medicinal materials, coupled with certain precautions, Zhang Jin didn't want his potion materials to be lost for no reason.

Then it was time to get ready to meet Lucius, Malfoy Manor knew it himself, he had been to Draco's birthday party before, the private kind.

The original Severus didn't like to be seen in public, especially in the face of some twisted, crazy, or jealous people.

Because of this, except for some core Death Eaters, others didn't even know that Severus was also a Death Eater, and it wasn't exposed until he was reported by Karkaroff.

First out of the envelope of the Hogwarts enchantment, then apparitions to the vicinity of Malfoy Manor in Wiltshire, England, where only ruins and wilderness can be seen.

Then walk to the location of the manor and see Malfoy Manor as you pass through a delicate wrought iron gate.

It is estimated that Lucius should know that he is coming, that wrought iron gate obviously has a certain detection and protection function, and these ancient families still have a set of secrets and protection.

Malfoy Manor is a typical lord's mansion, resembling a small castle and surrounded by elaborate gardens with two symmetrical fountains and white peacocks roaming through.

In the direction leading to the estate, a wide shaded path is separated by a tall, dense and manicured green belt.

Lucius. Malfoy was already standing on the steps of the door at the end of the road, with the ornate unrecognizable door behind him.

He just watched Zhang Jin walk step by step, holding the Malfoy's snake-headed cane in both hands, with the usual arrogance of the Malfoys on his face.

Zhang Jin didn't mind Lucius's arrogance, generally speaking, it was already good to be able to let him out of the hall to greet him, Severus and Lucius only had a good relationship now, and they didn't need a Malfoy to come down to greet him.

Zhang Jin also has no intention of speeding up the pace, coming to the Malfoy family itself has the intention of forming an alliance, and the premise of the alliance is equality of status.

When Severus was in school, he was often taken care of by Lucius at a low level, and after entering the core of the Death Eaters, he was valued by the Dark Lord and was barely equal, strictly speaking, Lucius's willingness to have an equal relationship with Zhang Jin was really face-saving and optimistic about Severus.

However, that was before, when Severus became the head of the Slytherin Head at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he was eligible to be equal to Lucius.

And after he became a Potions Master, his status was completely equal to Lucius, and even if he managed it well, he was slightly more influential, but the original Severus had little interest in this aspect.

And the current Professor Slughorn is like this, the slug club he established has produced many outstanding students, and there is no shortage of high-end figures in various fields, so that Professor Slughorn can mix everywhere he goes, and he can definitely beat Lucius in this regard.

So both Dumbledore and Voldemort tried their best to win over Slughorn, if Voldemort could have such connections, I'm afraid the Ministry of Magic and the Order of the Phoenix wouldn't even be able to resist.

The current Voldemort is equivalent to using one Slytherin house against at least two other houses, and he can only hold it up by his own strength.

And Professor Slughorn has the connections of all the high-level talents in the four houses, although he can't control it, this is already powerful enough.

And although Zhang Jin can't be like Professor Slughorn, Zhang Jin has stronger strength than him.
