Chapter 122 Gray Matter
Chapter 122 Gray Matter
After William's repeated tests, when he divided the small brand into [-] equal parts, that is, about half the size of a fingernail, each unit of small particles can constantly bear a stress-triggered "iron armor".
This passively triggered Iron Armor Curse would probably be able to withstand the "shattering of bones" of an ordinary senior student.
Compared with the high-priced hat developed by the Weasley brothers in the original book, which can only resist some mischief tricks, but is purchased in large quantities by the Ministry of Magic, it can already be regarded as a very fine magic item.
So William decided to divide each small "magic gold" plate into one hundred equal parts, so that after triggering the "iron armor protection" a few times, they would shatter and become worthless powder.
From the perspective of resource reuse, this is naturally a complete waste.
But if the effect of putting it on the market is considered, then this can only be regarded as a reasonable commercial operation.
"This number may be three times, or it may be four times. No, it should be three times. Three times is enough."
William felt that he was already very generous.
A brand requires 5 ounces of Magic Gold, which equals a full 0.05 ounces per serving when divided into [-]!
Magic gold is an out-and-out scarce resource. Just to make the basilisk fang powder it needs, you need to spend a lot of money to buy it, and it is priceless in the entire magic world.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the magic power contained in it would be too little to support an iron armor, William would even want to divide them into [-] equal parts.
In order to better promote sales, and more importantly, to conceal the metal of magic gold, William also imitated the form of the prefect badge, using the patterns of four colleges to make a moving badge the size of a bottle cap.
This kind of thing is easy to make. You only need to make badges in ordinary people's shops, and then apply some developing potion on them to make the animals on the badges move.
"For such a beautiful and practical badge, I'll only sell it for 2 Galleons, isn't it too much?
If the number of Iron Armor Curse above is exhausted and you want to replenish it, you only need to mail the badge back and add another Gold Galleon. "
William felt that he was really getting kinder and kinder.
Today, when Slytherin's secret room is opened and everyone in the castle is in danger, such a practical motivating protective item is actually sold for only a little money, which is simply charity.
Although there are not many students in the entire Hogwarts castle, there are at least nearly a thousand students.
If this part of the market can be spread out first, and then sold to the British magic community, William believes that there will be a good promotion effect by then.
But Fred and George seem to have some very different views on this than William.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
Fred stared at William with a strange look, "After all, there is a basilisk in the chamber of secrets."
What he didn't finish probably wanted to express, "Didn't you catch him yourself? You, William, are much more dangerous than the basilisk!"
"But the basilisk is still alive, isn't it? Every student in the castle is in danger at any moment."
William stressed.
Although the basilisk in the secret room has been captured, and is currently enjoying round-the-clock humanistic care in the underground factory, not only can it enjoy a large amount of potions every day, but house-elves make it for it every now and then. full body snake care.
Services such as exfoliation, teeth cleaning, scale polishing, detoxification and beauty can be enjoyed for free.
Although the techniques used by the technicians may be a bit rough, so that after each treatment, there are almost no complete scales left on its body, and it will be weak for a long time after the toxins in the body are discharged, but it still has the possibility of escaping.
"Isn't this kind of badge going to run out of times soon?" George showed a thoughtful look.
Three Iron Armor Curses may seem like a lot, but it is also easily triggered by various small jinxes.
After almost every get out of class, between Slytherin and Gryffindor, there will be some unexpected "collisions" between students in the corridor.
Those three times might not even be enough for dinner.
"We are in Hogwarts Castle, the safest place in the British wizarding world, so how can something dangerous happen in normal times.
But if there is a very strong need for the unlimited number of Armor Curse badges, we can also customize according to customer needs, of course, it will take a certain amount of time and cost. "
William had already thought about it, the permanent version of the Armor Curse badge, one can receive 98 gold Galleons, besides being able to move, the badge can glow and speak when pressed.
If you add another 20 galleons, you can also customize the badge into a family crest.Add 50 galleons, and the badge can also be engraved with the wizard's name.
At that time, we will release a top-level brooch with a number of wizards. It can not only be used as the decoration and color of the family crest, but also can protect the spell constantly. Sign it with Dumbledore, make a beautiful box, and add a little other gadgets.
This can't be sold at the price of a Firebolt?
"Just arrange it for a few ordinary pure-blood families first. Seeing that they all wear it, if other families don't make any moves, it must be not decent enough. If the pure-blood families buy it, other wealthy wizards will also think It's worth it."
William from the future is well versed in the mystery of involution.
"I made a total of 500 ordinary version badges in the first batch, but I estimate that the matter of the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets will be announced by Professor Dumbledore soon, so we have to hurry up and sell them all."
William patted Fred and George on the shoulders, "Sell them out and get a 5% commission, but you two get 8% from me, if you understand what I mean."
The two gold Galleons of the normal version of the badge are not expensive, even for a little wizard from an ordinary background, it is only 10 pounds.
Almost everyone can afford it, except perhaps the Weasleys, who are more fertile than rabbits.And now that the heir of Slytherin has not been exposed, it is the best time to sell fear.
The twin brothers glanced at each other.
"No problem at all!"
They strode toward the common room.
The same operation, William also taught Gemma, let her be in charge of the Slytherin house.
Because Penello was not very interested in selling this kind of thing, the Ravenclaw part was handed over to the well-informed Jimmy, and the prefect Robert Hilliard who knew more people.
As for Hufflepuff, William didn't really have any acquaintances, but Zhang Qiu, who happened to be in the library with Penello, said she had "friends" who could help.
"friend?"
When Penello teased the repetition, she flushed and William could almost see the steam rising from the top of her head.
"I remember Cedric is in third grade now?"
William recalled the script of the protagonist who received half of the original book, and then was sent by Peter Pettigrew, who wanted to revive Voldemort, to send Avada Kedavra.
"But now Peter Pettigrew has become a fool, who knows what will happen then?"
Even William himself, who is a time traveler, can't "foresee" the future at this moment.
Fortunately, Jin Jialong would not lie to him.
Almost overnight, the name of "Grey Matter Magic Props Company" spread throughout Hogwarts, because in the box containing the badge, besides the badge body, there was also a copy made by "Grey Matter" Provided quality assurance certificate and user instructions.
"Is it all true?"
Penello spread out a quality assurance letter, which introduced the production process of this badge in "very detailed", which William spent about 10 minutes and compiled it very carefully.
"A part of them can be real."
After a brief moment of deliberation, William gave his answer.
The craftsmanship of this emblem does come from a mysterious oriental alchemist (France is in the east of England, nothing wrong with it), the technique does have a history of more than a thousand years (the basilisk has lived for 1000 years), and the material does contain some magic that is almost extinct today Ingredients (the second basilisk may not be found in the whole of Britain)
As for other parts.
"That can only be the final interpretation of the Gray Matter Magic Item Company."
William looked around the auditorium hall.
From his vantage point, almost everyone at the Gryffindor table was already wearing lion badges - a brilliant idea Fred and George had come up with.
They gave Harry a badge and played a fake match with him in the common room.
"Harry Potter in the first year can single-handedly beat two senior students because of it?" They even posted an advertisement on the bulletin board for it.
There were also many students wearing dark green vipers on the Slytherin table.
They were purely angry at Gryffindors.
Because the Gryffindor students who bought the badges relied on the Iron Armor Charm given by the badges, frequently provoked conflicts after class, and took a very big advantage.
The little snakes soon realized that if they didn't use the same trick to bring their combat power back to the same level, they really couldn't deal with these little lions.
But when Gryffindor found out that the Slytherins had all worn their badges overnight, they suddenly became quiet again, acting like model students one by one, which made the little snakes feel really angry .
There were quite a few people wearing badges on the Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw long tables. Probably more than half of the students wore them, and most of the rest began to feel a little excited.
Dinner was about to begin, and at the same time, a tall figure quietly appeared at the door of the old girls' bathroom on the second floor of the castle.
