Latest website: After December, it snowed more frequently in Scotland.
Hogwarts Castle and the surrounding forest were covered with white snow, and the surface of the black lake around the castle was re-frozen with a thick layer of ice. A new round of skating craze is set off by the lake. Albert has been there once and met the skater Katrina. This Miss McDoug still has not given up the idea of learning to skate.
I don't know whether it is because of the extremely poor talent or other reasons. The smart Katrina just can't learn to skate.
However, Albert is not so worried about encountering the skater while skating. Because he seldom goes back to skating by the Black Lake, Albert spent most of his free time in the woods around the school looking for snow mushrooms, a specialty of winter.
Snow mushroom, also known as cedar mushroom, is a mushroom that only appears in winter when it snows. Matsutake mushrooms are scarce, taste good, and have high medicinal value.
Of course, this thing is not easy to preserve. After leaving the cold snow, it is easy to deteriorate and rot. Usually, after picking snow mushrooms, they must be processed as soon as possible.
Of course, it can also be directly made into delicacies. The roasted snow mushrooms are quite delicious and memorable.
Last year, Albert sliced and roasted the snow mushrooms he dug, and almost made a few roommates feel bad.
In pharmacies, snow mushrooms are extremely precious medicinal materials, but it does not mean that they can directly sell the snow mushrooms at high prices.
Although it is cruel to say that, the pharmacy in Diagon Alley does not accept unprocessed snow mushrooms. Even if it is processed, the merchant will not want to buy it if you find that you are not a potion expert.
Processing snow mushrooms is a technical task, and the wrong way will directly cause the quality of snow mushroom powder to decrease, which will seriously affect the effect of the medicine produced.
The black market does not lose a sales channel. Let Mondungus help to get the black market sales, and it will definitely make a small profit. However, in Albert's view, this approach is a loss-making business.
During the period of commodity circulation, middlemen are always the most blood-sucking part, especially on the black market.
Albert is unwilling to suffer a big loss, not to mention that it is stupid to sell magic raw materials directly. If the raw materials can be processed into finished products, they will be able to obtain greater profits.
"Store the snow mushroom powder first." Albert put the freshly picked snow mushrooms into a wooden box full of snow, and once again mentioned the matter to his roommates: "I don't agree to sell raw materials directly. , That is definitely the most loss-making business. If you want to sell your own share of snow mushroom powder, I can help you contact Mondungus and ask him about the price of buying snow mushroom powder. However, don’t expect to be able to buy snow mushroom powder. How many Galleons Dungues got."
The four of them spent half an hour busy in the woods, only to find five snow mushrooms.
Of course, the main reason is that after a few people scraped, the number of snow mushrooms that can be found outside the Forbidden Forest is rapidly decreasing.
Albert did not approve of going deep into the Forbidden Forest to take risks, so they were always on the outside.
However, the four of them are not just simply looking for snow mushrooms. Albert is also taking the time to draw a map of the forbidden forest, and roughly mark the location of the snow mushrooms on the map. It will be easier and more effective when picking snow mushrooms next year.
Hearing Albert’s proposal, Fred and George were entangled. According to Albert, even if they sell Albert’s processed snow mushroom powder, they may not get much gallons, at least The Kanon that should have been obtained will shrink by 50 to 80%. The black market price is indeed very expensive, but that is the price of the black market merchants and customers. Unless they are willing to go to the black market to sell in person, and can find customers who urgently need snow mushroom powder, otherwise Only for being slaughtered.
Albert never likes to be slaughtered, he prefers to slaughter other people's money bags, so he does not approve of low-price sales.
Fred and George both fell into hesitation. In their opinion, as long as they can sell a few gallons, they have worked hard to find snow mushrooms, but they also understand that Albert's mind and thinking are more than theirs. Know what to do and know how to make a lot of money.
They finally agreed that Albert would handle these things, and there is another reason that Lee Jordan also agreed with Albert's approach.
"Albert would rather roast the dug snow mushrooms directly to eat, rather than let himself suffer!" Li Qiaodan once said to the twins in private.
In fact, Albert once thought about selling snow mushroom powder to the potion master Dagworth, but after thinking about it, he gave up altogether. Dagworth has many channels to get snow mushroom powder, and he is also a little embarrassed. After all, he has no experience in processing snow mushroom powder, and the quality of the snow mushroom powder currently stored is only average.
The two are friends, there is no need for Garon to mess up the relationship because of this.
Getting familiar is something that many people like to do in the previous life, but once this kind of thing is done, the friendship between the two sides will basically come to an end.
Of course, some people would sell it for a good price, but after careful evaluation, Albert still felt that it was not worth it, so he never mentioned it.
"Go back, roast these snow mushrooms to eat." Albert suddenly suggested on the way back to the castle.
"Distressed to you." Lee Jordan couldn't help rolling his eyes at Albert, but there was no objection, and he turned to say in a weird tone. The taste of snow mushrooms is indeed very good, and several people have also found a lot of snow mushrooms this winter.
"It feels wasteful." Fred couldn't help muttering. He preferred to put Garon in his pocket rather than delicious food.
Although George didn't say a word, he probably had the same idea. There was nothing more real than Garon.
"Don't worry, there will be Garon sooner or later." Lee Jordan comforted. At this moment, Lee Jordan's mind is clearer than Fred and George.
How to turn things into wealth is a technical task. If you want to earn Garon, you must use your brain to find a way.
Albert is obviously better at this aspect than them, so it is undoubtedly the most appropriate to leave the matter to him.
After all, a bottle of Buffy Brain Rejuvenant can be sold at a high price of ten gallons, and several students have secretly asked whether they can help get a bottle in private.
If snow mushroom powder is made into medicine, the price is naturally more expensive.
In fact, Albert really knew how to use snow mushroom powder to further refine the potion. After all, he had a good relationship with Dagworth, and he quickly got the formula for the energy recovery agent.
It is not difficult to formulate energy recovery agent~www.novel35.com~ It is rare that the raw materials used in potions are some very expensive magic materials, so the price of a small bottle of energy recovery agent is almost the same as that of blessing agent, and it is valuable No city.
As for the effect of the energy recovery agent, just like its name, it replenishes the energy consumed by people and quickly restores physical strength.
Of course, it also has the effect of nourishing the kidney.
It would be great if I could get the common sense of snow mushrooms like Mandela grass.
Unfortunately, this kind of thing really can only look at the face.
At this time, there was a dog barking in the distance, and then they heard footsteps running quickly toward this side.
"What sound was that just now?" All three stopped, turning their heads to look in the direction of the sound.
"Does the dog bark?" George muttered.
"There must be nothing good anyway, leave quickly." Albert had already guessed what was going on, and he urged the three companions to leave here.
