Chapter 39 Sale of Potions

"I don't need a lot of money, but it's always right to save some. I just happen to have some ingredients to make a few bottles of potions to sell, and I think I can sell them for a good price. ”

Looking at the few materials he had left to make the enhancer. Yang Su thought about it for a while, and then proceeded to make the magic enhancement potion.

……

The next day, Yang Su walked into Tumbling Alley with the magic enhancer he had made. It's a dark wizard-infested alley, and it's eerie compared to Diagon Alley.

If he could, Yang Su didn't want to go here, but there was no way, in this country, the only thing that could be compared to Tumbledown Alley was Diagon Alley, and most of the shops in Diagon Alley sold cheap goods with a wide audience. Hardly any vendor could afford to buy the potion.

And even the only one who can give Yang Su a satisfactory price in Tumbledown Alley is the most powerful businessman here - Bo Jinbock.

It may not be his real name, but all of his guests are accustomed to calling him Mr. Bogin. He has an innumerable collection of magic. He sells magical items and buys them at the same time.

Although the store has an endless supply of forbidden dark magic items, no one from the Magic Association has ever come to trouble him. No one knows what the forces behind him are, but one thing is certain: no merchant in this country can afford to pay more than him.

"Hello, first time meeting Mr. Borgin. I've heard that you're buying magic items. I don't know if I can accept magic potions? ”

Walking through the store and ringing the bell on the counter, Yang Su looked at the slightly hunched man in front of him and asked.

At this time, Yang Su was wearing a black robe, and his white smiling mask blocked his face. Boginbock knew that this was not his regular customer, but he did not show impatience and said calmly: "Of course, I also buy all kinds of magic potions, but I must first take a look at the potions you provide, my gold will not be wasted on some garbage." ”

"That's as it should be, but I want you to pay the same amount of gold Galleons as this potion." Listening to Boginbock's words, Yang Su smiled and responded.

"Of course, who doesn't know that I've always been very trustworthy." With a sly smile, Bojin Bock replied to Yang Su's words: "No one will give you a higher price than me. I can tell you this very clearly. ”

"I hope you can keep that look after seeing the potion." After sneering in his heart, Yang Su took out a bottle of magic enhancer that he had made yesterday.

Taking the potion in Yang Su's hand, Bojin Bock unexpectedly kept his composure. He wore a pair of glasses with a pinched nose, carefully examined the potion in his hand, and a smile appeared on his face: "What a pure magic potion, if you guess correctly, this is a bottle of magic enhancer." Tell me which master's masterpiece this is. We can build long-term cooperation. ”

"Tell me his price, Mr. Borgin." Listening to Boginbock's suggestion, Yang Su said with a smile: "As for the cooperation, we will talk about it after we finish this deal in advance." ”

"Okay, I got it, dear guest." Bojin Bock was worthy of being a big businessman, and he clearly heard the impatience in Yang Su's words. He didn't have to go any further, and continued to inquire about the origin of the potion, but talked to Yang Su about the price of this bottle of potion.

"Although there are almost no magic enhancement potions of this level on the market, there are still many ordinary magic enhancement agents. I can give 10,000 gold Galleons for this bottle of potion."

"This is clearly not enough, Mr. Boginbock. It's a perfect bottle of potion and it doesn't have any side effects, you should know it. Listening to the price given by the other party, Yang Su said mercilessly. Although he didn't care about money, Yang Su knew that the other party was a very professional businessman, and the lower the price he sold to him, the more he would earn. Although he was willing to give such a potion to his students for free, he was not willing to sell the potion he made to any merchant at a low price. Otherwise, he wouldn't have appeared in this store.

Although Boginbock claims to be able to give the highest price, if he does not bargain, he will definitely not hesitate to overpower the lowest price. In the same way, this is true of every merchant in Tumbledown Alley. If the guests don't bargain, then the merchants can definitely get the most bang for their buck.

Compared to Diagon Alley, there aren't so many unspoken rules. The prices of all the products in all the stores are average, so you won't be surprised. But when buying something, it is definitely the lowest price, and there is no way to negotiate the price.

"The twenty thousand gold galleons, you know, that's far more than the price of a piece of material."

"Mr. Borgin, are you joking? Please don't compare the value of the material to the finished product, okay? ”

Hearing Yang Su's response, Bo Jinbock knew that he had to raise the price, and at the same time, in order to be able to obtain greater benefits, he had to give a suitable reason to persuade Yang Su.

"Haha~" Boginbock, who showed a "kind" smile, said: "It seems that you know the price of this bottle of potion very well, so you should have drunk a bottle of magic enhancer." The reason why it is sold is also because it is only effective when a person drinks the enhancer for the first time. That's it, 40,000 gold Galleons. I think you know as well that I sold it for a price that would definitely be higher than that, but as a businessman I always need to make some money. ”

"A good friend of mine told me yesterday that he was worth at least 50,000 gold gallons. You're making a little bit of money, that's a lot. Listening to Boginbock's words, Yang Su remembered what Snape had said to him yesterday. Looking at the hunchbacked man with a kind smile in front of him, Yang Su said.

"You have a good friend." In response to Yang Su, Bo Jinbock showed a helpless expression. "Since your friend has given him his value, then trade it according to that number. After all, it has been many years since there has been a magic enhancer of this magnitude on the market. The famous potions masters don't let their creations flow into the public at will. With a bit of luck, I can earn some gold gallons too. ”

"Mr. Bogin, I'm sure someone will give you a good price. After all, according to my friend, those big families with deep roots will stop at nothing for a perfect heir. ”

"Yes, fifty thousand gold Galleons for an outstanding genius heir is not expensive."

The two of them completed the deal in the middle of this chat. Fifty thousand gold galleons are not possible to carry with you. After Bokin Bock informed Gringotts to transfer 50,000 gold galleons to Yang Su's safe, he obtained the potion made by Yang Su.

And Yang Su, who confirmed that Jin Gallon had entered his vault, turned around and left Tumbledown Alley, he did not immediately open the space tunnel to leave, but found a remote corner where no one was around, and took off his black robe and the mask on his face. He walked down Diagon Alley to see if he could buy something he needed, or a few interesting books.

Yang Su didn't know that two people walked into Bojin's store shortly after he left, no, three people to be exact. The unlucky Harry was sent to Tumbledown Alley, Boginbock's shop, when he was using Floo Powder.

Watching the two Malfoys walk into the store, he hid in a cupboard.

After shaking the bell of Boginbock, Malfoy looked at Boginbock in front of him and said politely, "Hello, Mr. Bogin." ”

"Mr. Malfoy, it was a pleasure to see you again. Mr. Borgin said in a tone as smooth as his hair, "Very honorable, and Master Malfoy, welcome." What can I do for you? Oh, and by the way, I'll be sure to show you that this is the potion I just acquired, and I think it's definitely perfect for you. Only 100,000 gold Galleons. ”

"Ahem," Malfoy said as he listened to Boginbock's words, and there was a hint of displeasure on his face, but he quickly suppressed it.

"I can't remember when enhancers were so expensive. Has he become contraband? And I'm not buying anything today, Mr. Bokin, I'm here to sell. ”

Listening to Malfoy's words, the smile on Boginbock's face quickly decreased. But the smile on Malfoy's face grew even bigger as he watched Malfoy's next move.

"You've heard that the Ministry of Magic has stepped up its scrambling." Mr. Malfoy said, pulling a roll of parchment from the inside pocket of his coat and unfolding it for Boginbock. "I have some things at home that may cause me inconvenience, if the ministry comes ......"

Before Malfoy could finish speaking, Boginbock put on a pair of sniffle glasses and looked down at the list Malfoy had given.

"I don't think the Ministry of Magic will bother you." Looking at the items on the list, Boginbock said with a smile.

Mr. Malfoy pouted and said, "Not yet." Malfoy's name still has a bit of prestige, but the Ministry of Magic is getting more and more nosy. A new

"Born to be," Boginbork said with a heartfelt smile. In his eyes, it doesn't matter what pure-bloods are. As long as you can bring benefits to yourself, it is your own guests. Not to mention anything else, the ancient magic items he received from Veles's house alone had already made him a lot of money. I heard that the new Hogwarts professor Giraud Lockhart's Defence Against the Dark Arts class list is his portfolio. Boginbock felt like he had another opportunity to make money. As long as the Willes family still has the goods they can see.

In the end, after some haggling, the two sides reached a consensus. And just as Malfoy called Draco to leave, Boginbock took out the enchantment potion that Yang Su had just sold him, and said in a seductive tone, "Mr. Malfoy, are you sure you don't want to take a look at this bottle of enchantment?" He can give little Malfoy a magic far superior to his peers without any side effects. ”

"Indeed," Malfoy's face as he observed the enchantment in Boginbock's hand took away the impatience he had just had. He was distressed that his son would not succeed. Looking at his son, he pondered for a moment and then said, "You have won, Mr. Borgin. Tomorrow you can bring it when you come to my house to pick up the goods. I also have a few beloved items that you should be interested in. ”

Listening to Malfoy's words, Boginbock knew the other party's intentions, and he smiled and said, "Got it, Mr. Malfoy." You'll be glad you made that decision. ”

"I also hope that your potions will not disappoint me, you should know that there are quite a few potions experts among my friends." With that, Malfoy left the shop in Boginbock with Draco.

Looking at the closed door after the two left, Bokingbock put away his flattering smile. Instead, there was a treacherous expression: "It's good luck to exchange fifty thousand gold Galleons for Old Malfoy's precious collection, if I'm not mistaken, most of that guy's desperate collection is related to dragons." It seems that he is going to make a lot of money this time. ”

Compared to Harry, who was smiling merrily now, Harry was hiding in the cupboard, and Malfoy's attitude towards Mr. Veles already made him angry. But he was more concerned about the enchantment that Boginbock had recommended to Malfoy.

He seemed to have thought of Malfoy's swaggering expression when he returned to school and displayed his powerful magic.

After Boginbock returned to the back room, Harry stepped out of the cupboard. He tried to lighten his feet as slowly as he walked out of the Burkinbock shop.

He walked out of the shop, looking at the eerie sight and knowing that this was not Diagon Alley. It wasn't here or there, but his instincts told Harry that it wasn't a gathering place for good people.

In the window of the opposite house, there are some shrunken human heads on display. Across the two facades, a large cage is crawling with huge black spiders. In a dark doorway, two ragged wizards were watching him whisper. No matter how you look at it, it's not a good place.

After wandering around Tumbledown Alley for a long time, Harry got lost, and he didn't know how to get out of this strange alley, when a voice gave him hope.

"Harry, what are you doing here?"

It was Hagrid, and Harry's heart finally fell as he looked at Hagrid's huge body. He ran to Hagrid and explained why he had come back.

"Hagrid, it's good to see you. I'm lost because Floo fans ......"

After listening to Harry's words, Hagrid took Harry directly out of Tumbledown Alley. When the two reached Diagon Alley, Hagrid dusted Harry off the soot and said, "Look at you, wandering around Tumbledown Alley, that's not a good place, Harry, don't let people see you there." ”

"I can see it." Dodging Hagrid's hand and gently dusting off his body, Harry reluctantly spoke, "Tell you I'm lost - what are you doing there?"

"I'm looking for a potion to repel carnivorous slugs." Hagrid said gruffly, "They don't know when they appeared, they're almost ruining the cabbage in the school." By the way, you're not alone, are you?"
