A day at Hogwarts
Chapter 33 You Can Add Money
During Potions class on Friday morning the next day, Snape kept sneering at Charles and looking happy.
The class was safe and sound, and after lunch, Charles came to the Potions classroom to look for Snape.
Some things are hard to say in class, but now that Charles delivered it to his door, Snape started to taunt: "Hey, you are wrong, the divination failed."
Charles scratched his head and asked him tentatively, "Do you want my divination to succeed?"
Snape glared at him fiercely, and continued to fiddle with the cauldron behind the long, full table, beside which there were many tools for processing medicinal materials.
Charles continued to ask him: "Professor, do you have a channel to buy poison horn beast explosive liquid?"
Snape's expression became serious in an instant. The Poison Horn Beast is a magical beast produced in Africa. The liquid secreted from the horn of a rhinoceros can explode. This explosive liquid is dangerous to a certain extent.
At the same time, the explosive liquid is also a relatively expensive medicinal material, which is expensive.
The Hogwarts Potions professor's signboard was shining gold, so naturally many people came to Snape to refine potions.
The price of the potion made by Snape was at least 20% higher than that of similar products on the market, so you can buy it with confidence, mainly because if something goes wrong, Snape can't escape Hogwarts.
So Charles thought that Snape must know those medicine dealers, and asking him for help could reduce the middleman's profit. More importantly, Snape could run away but not Hogwarts, so he was not afraid of him running away with money.
"What?" Snape snapped at him. "You want your divination to succeed?"
Charles blinked, and quickly understood that Snape thought he had to rely on his hardworking little hands to make the divination work.
Naturally, he didn't want to blow up Snape's house. We'll talk about that later. Now that there are more important things, he told the story of helping the centaur to destroy the acromantula.
Snape also knew about this, part of the unicorn tail hair and acromantula venom that Charles brought back at the beginning had ended up in his hands.
There are many good things in the Forbidden Forest, and Snape often goes to collect them himself, but it's not as convenient as looking for a horseman to do it himself.
So he wrote a list on the parchment and gave it to Charles: "Go and ask the centaur if they have these things, and I'll contact the poison horned beast's explosive liquid. How much do you want?"
Charles replied: "I want 10 gallons..."
"Idiot!" Snape raged. "Do you want to blow up Hogwarts?"
10 gallons is equivalent to about 45 liters. A bottle of explosive liquid as big as Fengyoujing can blow up a small house. If so much is blown up in a castle, it is no joke.
Snape thought he'd need a maximum of 10 ounces, something like 300 milliliters.
Charles said in embarrassment: "But there are too many acromantids, and there are hundreds of them in a nest. To eliminate them, we can only start by eliminating the spider nests, which requires a lot of explosive liquid."
Just like what Voldemort said, he has no problem single-handedly fighting the Acantaraman, and one-on-one is not a big problem, but he needs external force to fight the entire group.
After hearing this, Snape shook his head and said mockingly, "Can you concoct explosive liquid to make them safer? Do you think the headmaster will allow you to put so much explosive liquid in the castle?"
Now Charles was out of luck. This was obviously not something that would be included in the first-year Potions textbook, and the principal would probably not agree to store a large amount of flammable and explosive dangerous goods in the castle.
Putting aside the matter of dangerous goods, Charles asked Snape very seriously: "Professor, how much will it cost if you hire you to prepare explosive liquid?"
The classroom door opened by itself, and Charles flew out by himself.
After getting up, the guy shouted through the closed door: "You can add more money!"
After a few seconds, the door opened.
Just like in Gotham City, not everyone is as rich as Wayne. The Joker has to buy groceries and cook for his parents every day after beating Batman.
Of course, this will have to wait for Dumbledore to sell out the materials, and it may take some time.
The two talked for a while without reaching an agreement. Snape also prepared the utensils on the long table. The cauldron had been filled with water and the fire was lit. It seemed that he was going to do something.
Snape stopped talking and started to prepare the potion.
Charles didn't speak, he was very curious, and just watched quietly from the side.
Snape didn't push people away either, just doing his own thing silently.
He put a small basket of washed white meat on the chopping board, picked up a knife and quickly cut it into small pieces, making Charles feel a little dazed, thinking that he was in Hogwarts Cooking School.
Put the cut white fresh into a large distillation flask, add water to stop the stopper, put it on the rack and light it, the steam flows through the pipe through the condenser filled with ice cubes and water, and finally flows into a separatory funnel .
At first, Charles was a little curious about the Muggle equipment used to make white fresh essential oil, but thinking about the relationship between chemistry and alchemy, it might be introduced by some parent who is a wizard who is engaged in chemistry. It is not impossible for wizards to improve ordinary tools.
At this time, the white fresh essential oil is still produced, and it needs to be purified again to be the white fresh essence on the market for healing.
After connecting the tube, Snape asked Charles expressionlessly: "Do you understand?"
Charles immediately replied: "Understood, it's written in the textbook."
The first-year students will learn how to make dill essence, but that will be in the second half of the school year. After the dill they grow in the greenhouse grows a bit decent, they will learn how to combine potions and herbalism.
What's terrible is that the results of this joint activity are counted in the final grades of the two subjects.
So Charles studied the relevant content in particular, and felt that it was not difficult except for the final purification step.
Snape pointed to the other sets of distillation equipment next to him, and took out several baskets of medicinal materials for him, it seemed that he was treating him as free labor.
Charles recognized that the purple flowers of the mandrake had an anesthetic effect, the essence extracted from the yellow rue flowers could detoxify, and the third was the fresh leaves of nettles, which they had used dried in the potions class on the first day. nettle.
As he got to work, Snape pulled a cage from under the table.
This cage was there in the morning, and there was some movement inside, but it was covered with a cloth, and no one knew what it was.
Now that Charles knew, it was a cat-sized rat with tentacles on its pale pink back.
"Mortla?" he asked curiously.
But Snape ignored him, absorbed in his work.
Charles didn’t bother him any more. The juice from the tentacles on the back of the Motra rat can be filtered and pickled to make potions for healing wounds and relieve pain. In severe cases, the chrysanthemum breathes fire.
Snape was brave enough not to wear gloves. If the car overturned, Charles felt that although he could see the rare scene, he would definitely be silenced.
In that state of social delay, the Avada Kedavra Curse released when killing people was about to be silenced probably couldn't stop the three bundles of Dumbledore, Grindelwald and Voldemort together.
Then Snape cast a Stunning Charm on Muttrarat, and gave it a little potion to euthanize before starting the next step.
Charles was on the sidelines, taking care not to let the water in the several decanters boil dry, while carefully watching Snape make the mouse tentacle juice.
During the period, a house elf brought food over, and Charles realized that it was time for the meal.
At the end, Snape mixed the Motra rat juice with several essential oils, and asked Charles to get some ingredients to add into it, and finally got a potion with SSR special effect light.
"An ordinary healing potion." Snape said calmly. "St. Mungo's Hospital commissioned me to make it. It can heal some cursed wounds."
Charles sighed: "This is not ordinary at all!"
The wounds of curses are difficult to heal due to the influence of magic. Different curses have different methods of undoing them. The price of a potion that can undo several curses at the same time is definitely not cheap.
Snape suddenly sneered and said to him, "It's not for nothing that I charge so much."
The corner of Charles' mouth twitched, and he stretched out his right hand and gave him a thumbs up.
Those who meow are all millennium foxes.
Now he understood that Snape didn't drive him away, he just wanted to prepare for the price negotiation just now, and he also foolishly helped.
Fever finally gone
