Vol 2 Chapter 494: Potions (modified)

In the middle of the night, the Hogwarts library was empty. Allen and Hermione were alone in the quietest corner of the library, and there was silence all around, only to hear Hermione's quill on a pile of thick parchment. Modify the sound of some words and sentences there.
Allen has finished his thesis. He flipped through the reference books that Hermione lay on the table. Most of them were books on economics and management. These books are not available in the Harris family library. In the eyes of wizards, these books do not belong to the category of precious books at all, but some of the nonsense of Muggles can’t even be counted as the category of books...
It is the Hogwarts library that unorganized storage of some of these books, presumably materials for Muggle studies.
"Finally I have planned the general idea." Hermione stretched out, yawned softly, and put down the quill in her hand.
"May I have a look?" Allen asked, pointing to the stack of parchment in front of Hermione.
"Of course, I also want to listen to your advice." Hermione wiped the corners of her eyes and rubbed her face, as if she wanted to wash away her tiredness.
Allen scanned it quickly, and it took a long time before he put down the plan in his hand.
"Why did you think of planning this, grouping the Harris family's industry and carrying out unified management and operation, this is really an amazing plan, Hermione." Allen was amazed, such a detailed plan, it seems It takes a lot of energy and time. Alan was a little ashamed, his thinking had been solidified, it was completely the wizard's way of thinking, and he had not thought of such a move.
This made Hermione's cheeks flushed, and her eyes looked at Allen brightly: "This is not what I thought alone." Hermione told the Harris family's conversation that day after Allen left in Harris Manor. Allen said, "Do you think this plan is feasible?"
"This plan is highly maneuverable, I think it is feasible." Allen is very supportive of this initiative. He is worrying about his lack of time, although he knows that the pure-blood family management model is not completely suitable for the development momentum. Harris, but he has no energy spent on it. If this plan is implemented, it can be expected that he will be completely freed from the family's tedious business decisions. In addition, since Hermione is hosting this project, the relationship between her and Harris will get closer and closer, plus her own training class... so that it will be logical in the future.
"I think we should vigorously develop pharmaceutical technology and biotechnology. We have convenient conditions. The basement level of Harris Tower is a magic garden, which can accelerate the planting of the most valuable plants, and the medicinal plants that need a lot of use can be purchased in a unified manner. And Ellen, you have the records in the Half-Blood Prince Handbook given to you by Professor Snape and in the tower on the special handling of medicinal materials and making potions. We produce potions with good effect and high efficiency. I believe that in a short time. , We can form a monopoly on the potion industry. Moreover, potions are consumables, which are different from the products of Wizard TV that can be used for many years after buying one. Even though the population of the magic world is small, potions are long-term. It needs to be used. These are all funds that can be gathered quickly. This is different from the previous industries that require large investments and slow capital returns. We can even develop the potion industry abroad!"
Allen's encouragement made Hermione more confident, and she confided her thoughts out of her mind.
"In addition, we should also prepare in advance for the possible war that the person returns. It is not enough to only rely on training everyone’s level of spelling. We can also develop some military equipment, which can improve ordinary wizards’ encounters. Voldemort and his Death Eaters have the ability to defend themselves during terrorist events. On the other hand, if a war breaks out, then both officials of the Ministry of Magic and ordinary wizards will need these things to arm themselves for a sense of security. From ancient times to the present, The arms business has always had high profits." Allen was inspired and suggested that Hermione add the content of arms.
Hermione nodded and continued to communicate with Allen about some details of the plan. The more the discussion, the wider the thinking, and new ideas flashed in Allen's mind: "This plan is very good, but I will use your plan as a basis and add some of my thoughts."
There is no doubt that these things have been brewing in Hermione's heart for a long time. In the process of communicating with Allen, she said so eloquently, Allen nodded repeatedly.
"Nothing else is a problem. It's just that the experience and methods of making potions in the Half-Blood Prince Handbook given to me by Professor Snape need to be approved by him before they can be widely used." Allen praised Hermione for a while. Said.
"Well, yes...I ignored this question. After all, these techniques were invented by Professor Snape alone. After all, he did not publish these findings but gave them directly to us." Hermione is not good at dealing with these people's sophistication, but I missed this point.
"Don't worry, it's not a big problem." Allen felt confident to convince Professor Snape that he knew where his weakness was after all.
Allen didn't like procrastination, and he stayed until the end after Potions class the next day.
"Professor Snape." Hearing Alan's voice, Snape lifted his head from the pile of bottles and cans handed over by the students, his face full of disgust.
"Professor Snape, the Half-Blood Prince Handbook that you gave me, can I apply the above knowledge to business and widely used it?" Allen said directly.
"Yes, you can go out." Since it was given to Alan, Snape didn't think about how he would use it. He continued to lower his head, pinched a bottle of potion, and sniffed ~EbookFREE.me~ A D was written on the roster on the side.
"Professor, we will pay you dividends." Allen added.
"Don't bother me, I don't need it, you can leave now." Snape frowned. He just wanted to quickly complete the identification of these antidote potions. Lily Evans has passed away, these things have no meaning to Snape, otherwise, he would have used this knowledge to exchange a lot of Jin Jialong.
"Professor, since you don't want it, then I plan to use the dividends that originally belonged to you to set up a public welfare fund to provide assistance to wizards who aspire to become potions. I plan to call it-E&S." Allen did not wait. Speak slowly.
ES, Snape and Lily Evans's initials.
Snape raised his face and walked down from the podium, looking directly at Alan.
"Professor, when the mysterious man and his power are completely defeated, I will directly change the name to Evans Snape Fund." Allen added.
Professor Snape's face twitched, as if he was irritated by the so obvious Foundation name that Allen had named him. In the hesitation between being disgusted and gratified, the raised eyes fell. After a while of silence, he said, "Just call the Lily Foundation. Besides, don’t come to the potions class this semester. Once they make potions, they want to copy how you did it. You will affect others. The student’s learning situation.
After speaking, he pointed to the D on the roster,
In addition, my NEWT class only accepts
O
students.

Alan was overjoyed and left the potions classroom. At the entrance of the auditorium, wearing a fluorescent pink Umbridge like a fat candy, he stopped with a sweet smile. Alan.
