Chapter 342: Blood Earned
Kenneth Toller looked at the three men with strange expressions, and finally Mrs. Pardiff filled the table with a chair, otherwise he would have to stand.
"Mr. Anderson, you are younger than I thought. Mrs. Prime Penier said as she shook hands with Albert.
"Well, everybody says that. Albert graciously reached out and shook hands with the lady in front of him.
"Everyone?"
Mrs. Prim was a little curious as to who Albert meant by "everyone," but she hadn't forgotten what she was here to do today.
"Let's talk about the topic of today's meeting, your redness and swelling remover version 2.0 is really good. However, it's hard to agree with your taste in the name. Mrs. Prim Penier said with a smile.
Isobel smiled at Albert with a "look, I'll just say you won't be named."
"500 Galleons, I'm not unacceptable, but I'm more concerned about how much it can bring me, I mean...... I heard that Mr. Anderson only took half a month to complete the improvement of the formulation. Mrs. Prime Pinier took a sip of black tea, looked up at Albert and asked, "If I buy your recipe and you refine it again, I'll lose all my money." ”
"It's not entirely my work to improve potions. Albert raised his hand and pointed at Isobel and said, "My friend has helped me a lot, too." ”
"Who is this young lady?" asked Mrs. Prim Penier, looking at Isobel, curiously.
"Isobel McDoug. Albert introduced, "The genius of Hogwarts. ”
"If you're interested in beauty potions, I'd love to welcome you to apply for a job at my shop after graduation. Mrs. Prim Penier shook hands with Isobel and invited, "I'll give you a satisfactory price." ”
Both Kenneth Toller and Katrina were a little embarrassed, and they couldn't interject at all.
"I'll think about it. Isobel politely refused.
"Well, Mr. Anderson, you haven't answered my question yet?" Mrs. Prime Pinenier turned her gaze back to Albert.
"Five years, I think five years should be enough time for Mrs. Prime Penier to recoup her costs. Albert thought for a moment and said, "And I can make a lot of money." ”
"Time is too short. Mrs. Prime Pennier shook her head and refused, "If it's only five years, I'm afraid I'll only give you half the price." ”
"You've probably used potions, version 2.0 of the Redness Eliminator is already a full-fledged commodity, and in Hogwarts schools, a large number of girls and boys use it to get rid of pimples on their faces, and no one doesn't like to look pretty. Albert drank milk tea and said to the lady in front of him, "I think you will definitely make a lot of money, at least not at a loss." ”
Mrs. Prim Penier tried to say something, but was interrupted by Albert's raised hand.
"Improving potions itself isn't a simple matter either. Albert continued: "As a pharmacist, you should be well aware of this. ”
Mrs. Prim Pinell was silent, for the boy in front of her was right, it was a surefire deal, and she just wanted to get more out of herself.
"It's a gamble at best, and if I don't come up with a better potion, 500 Galleons will be the equivalent of a redness eliminator version 2.0 recipe, and Mrs. Prem Penier will undoubtedly make a fortune. ”
Mrs. Prim Pinier did not refute this, for he was equally aware that the boy in front of him was well aware of the price of the formula.
"You think it's a bet?" said Mrs. Prime, who looked at Albert with interest.
"Yes. Albert smiled and said: "Moreover, you will not lose the bet, at most you will make a little less, and if I lose the bet, I will definitely lose money." Of course, I'm willing to bet because I've been lucky and I'm confident in my luck. ”
Mrs. Prim Penier thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Because Albert is not wrong at all, the unique business is very profitable, and she will not lose this birth anyway.
To take a simple example, the quick-smoothing hair potion used in the wizarding world today was invented decades ago, and the inventor made a lot of money from it, and finally he sold the shop and the formula of the potion, making him directly rich, but the fast-smoothing hair lotion is still very profitable today.
If Albert hadn't been working on a new redness reliever, it would have meant that the recipe would have been worth a lot of money, and five hundred Galleons might not be enough for a fraction of the money he earned.
Is it really that easy to improve potions?
As an apothecary, Lady Prim Pinier is naturally well aware of how difficult it is to improve potions.
In the end, she readily agreed, and took out a contract from the Ministry of Magic and handed it to Albert for signature, and the two parties happily agreed on the deal.
However, Lady Prim Pinenier stated in the magic contract that the new and improved redness and swelling remover needs to be different from the current one, otherwise Albert will be in default, and Lady Prim Pinell will have the right to purchase the potion recipe for a certain amount of Galleons.
This little bit of caution naturally can't hide from Albert and Isobel, but Albert doesn't care, because Redness Remover 3.0 will definitely be an ointment, not a potion.
Katrina, who witnessed the whole transaction, was stunned to see Albert easily buy five hundred Galleons, and he actually generously gave Isobel fifty Galleons.
Katrina opened her mouth, but at last she didn't say anything, and just left the teahouse in a daze.
"It went even better than I expected. Isobel smiled and said to Albert over milk tea, "But you're really generous." ”
"You've helped throughout, haven't you?" said Albert lightly.
Isobel didn't pay much attention to Garon's problem, and continued to talk about what happened just now, she hoped that Albert could help her sister, this was actually the second time, but because of their relationship, Katrina was slowly excluded from the original small circle, after all, when the two were together, they didn't want a third party to be there, and Isobel meant that she wanted to pull Katrina again.
"That's fine. Albert jokingly asked, "But aren't you afraid that I'll kidnap your sister by the hand?"
"I'm not afraid, I'm still very confident in myself. Isobel kissed Albert on the cheek and said, "Besides, I don't believe you'll do that." ”
"Haven't you heard the saying that boys are big carrots?" Albert couldn't help but laugh at himself.
"It seems that you are very confident in yourself!"
Isobel didn't care about Albert's self-deprecation, but glanced at the bag of Garon and said, "Although I like your confidence, ...... I think that Prim will probably open champagne to celebrate when Mrs. Prime returns to Pennill!"
"I don't feel like I'm losing. Albert said calmly.
Even if you keep the formula of redness and swelling elimination in your hand, you can't sell it for 500 Galleons, so it's better to exchange it for money directly.
"In my booking, Redness Eliminator is a salve and I'm sure we'll be able to complete Redness Eliminator version 3.0, you know, I've been lucky. He said to his girlfriend.
"I like your confidence. "But you're really bad at choosing names. ”
"Then remember to help me come up with a nice name. ”
