   Chapter 2595 potionsmarket

  Pomona saw an ad in the Daily Prophet: A magical potion that will remove fat forever, guaranteed to work, or refund the original price.

   She looked down at her waist and then read the newspaper.

   "That's a lie." The Potions Professor flipped through another copy of the Daily Prophet. "If you buy it, you're just buying back a bunch of useless snake oil."

   "That's a big company," Pomona argued.

Master    curled the corners of his mouth and teased, "Do you think they have developed a lot of potions and employees, so they are a big company?"

"if not?"

   "They're just good at lying, do you really think it's useless to buy their diet pills, they'll give you the money back?"

  Pomona glanced anxiously at the newspaper again.

   "You're not fat, Pomona, it's just a potion." He said softly, "You should focus your energy elsewhere."

   "I'm not interested in Quidditch either." She put aside the newspaper full of Quidditch, and continued to concentrate on how to set up the maze.

The    Potions Master continued to read the newspaper on the sofa in her office.

  —————————————————————

  In Britain and the United States, there is a trading system for the Potions stock market, which is similar to the Muggle stock market, but not the same.

   Scamander's amnestic potion used to work a lot in New York, and he was rain-spreading, which was more convenient and safer than a large amnestic spell. If he had put that potion on the market, it would have risen fast in an age when Grindelwald had created so many magical disasters, but in a time of peace it would have been of little value.

To make this potion, the venom of the bat is needed. Scamander is "freshly squeezed". If the forgetting effect of the venom will weaken over time, then it will not be possible to hoard, which will cause sharp fluctuations in the price. Once there is a large occasion to forget, the bat venom will rise, and usually has little value unless another use is developed.

   Some potion manufacturers will make semi-finished products to "fix" the forgetting effect of the venom of the bat, or store them for a longer period of time, but they are not sold forgetting potions, but a basic material similar to snake oil.

The price fluctuations of these basic potions and medicinal materials will affect the finished potions, and the reasons for affecting the potions and medicinal materials may have nothing to do with magical disasters, such as a wildfire destroying the habitat of a certain animal and plant, or because of trade. caused by the ban.

Medicinal materials and potions should also be classified into different classes. For example, Rem Ox Blood is the top layer, followed by Dragon Blood. In terms of the difficulty of obtaining, Rem Ox is not as aggressive as Dragon, but Rem Ox is more aggressive than Dragon. Much harder to find, they are not protected in Romania like dragons.

As for low-level medicinal materials and potions, each country can produce it by itself, following the Muggle market rules to a certain extent. However, at the end of 1925, due to the sudden ban of the French Ministry of Magic, the export of low-level magical medicines in the United States was indirectly affected. loss.

No one knows why the French did this, but if you calculate the date, the birthday of the mysterious man is December 31, 1926, at least 10 months ahead, just right after the ban was issued, which means Merope Wasn't the love potion given to Muggle Tom Riddle made by the French?

This is not necessarily, because the effect of the fascination agent will become more and more effective over time, but because the ban has caused such a storm, no one will associate the birth of the mysterious man with the French fascination agent, on the contrary It's the lack of regulation of Ecstasy, and the fact that it's the UK, where Merope's hometown is, that's more suspect.

  The mysterious man went to find Harry Potter because he heard the prophecy, the boy born at the end of July. The prophecy can be believed or not. The French Minister of Magic is to prevent the appearance of the second Dark Lord and prohibit the sale of Ecstasy? Assuming that the French Minister of Magic has not issued a ban, Grindelwald will still go to Paris to lobby, and the results will be invisible to those in this world.

   As for Mrs. Zabini, who has been married seven times, there are also rumors that she had a love potion with those men, who gave her everything, and Mrs. Zabini got richer by marrying again and again.

   But Mrs. Zabini herself is also a very beautiful and attractive woman, who knows if the people who submit to her skirt are really losing their minds because of the love potion.

There are many conditions for the listing of potions. Not all potions are eligible for listing, but potion companies can be listed for financing, such as the slimming potion company that Pomona wanted to buy before, but the dilution potions they developed were Nep said snake oil was ineffective.

   That's definitely illegal, but that's not Pomona's concern at the moment. She kind of understood why Albus had put Pomona and Filivie out to work while Snape had been "locked up".

No matter how Slytherin's interests come first, they will not kill the "Snake King" pet and then dismember it for sale. Feiliwei and Pomona are different. The dead basilisk will slowly rot in the secret room. It's better to make use of the useful places on it.

There will always be one or two "antiques" passed down from generation to generation in noble families, such as armor made by goblins, or leather armor made of magical animal skins. Some animals are as cherished as Rem bulls, while Slytherin's Millennium Snake Strange to be one of them.

  Singleton's self-stirring cauldron is useful for low-level potions, who doesn't get acne or something. But for high-level potions, it is completely useless. If Fuling can be mass-produced, there will not be so many unlucky people.

   With the Basilisk's "potion material", the people Singleton wants to contact will be more advanced. Want to make a name for the history of magic in your 30s and get a chocolate frog picture instead of going to St. Mungo's asylum like Lockhart of course, Singleton has won at least one afternoon tea with Pomona Opportunity.

   "Pomona!"

   She had just broken up with Singleton when Ludo Bagman yelled.

   He opened his arms in front of so many people, and she couldn't hide, when Cedric rushed over and stood in front of her.

   "It's an honor to meet you, sir." Cedric reached out to Bagman.

   "Who are you, boy?" Bagman looked at Cedric without reaching out.

   "Seeker at Hufflepuff Academy." Pomona walked around Cedric and looked at Bagman. "Maybe you can teach him both hands."

   "I heard the Triwizard Tournament is going to be at Hogwarts," Bagman said.

   "That's right, the third game was on the Quidditch pitch," Pomona said.

   "Let's talk about it next time we meet." Bagman patted Cedric on the cheek, and walked away after the others shouted.

  Cedric looked angrily at Bagman's back.

   "Thank you for helping me out." Pomona patted Cedric's arm. "Let's go find your dad."

   "You're welcome, Dean," said Cedric, a tall man who protected Pomona by his side, weaving through the crowd.

   They soon found Amos Diggory, who was eating at the buffet table.

   Seeing that he was eating so well, Pomona was hungry too, so the three of them Hufflepuffs just ate and drank as if they were alone.

===================================================== ======

The exiles during the French Revolution fled in two directions, one was to the east, to Switzerland, Austria and Italy, and the other was to go west, to the United Kingdom or the United States, and a few would choose to go north or south. , to the Low Countries and Spain.

  Prussia, because of Frederick the Great and the Seven Years' War, replaced Austria and formed a strong enemy with France. The reason why the "diplomatic revolution" arranged by Marquis Choisel was successful was also because of Prussia, and now the Holy Roman Empire has already existed in name only. There is often a marriage relationship between nobles, and relatives come to live in their homes for a few days, so it is not easy to drive people away. If they have a good relationship, they will not only give money, but also help to recover the relative's property.

   If she expected it well, the courier to Berlin should have left, and she walked over to a map of Europe. This time they went west, first to Normandy, then north, to Ostend, then east, to Antwerp, Mechelen, Brussels, and then south to northern France .

  This area is the grain-producing area of ​​France, and it was also an important industrial area in the 20th century. Pomona also thought to himself that Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette fled north because there was enough food there.

  The west was originally closer to the Atlantic Ocean, that is, the United States, the raw material for cotton, and the United Kingdom, where the yarn was supplied, but lost this advantage because of tariff barriers.

   It is impossible for France to revive the 1786 trade treaty, and the UK also knows that cheese, milk, and cider will replace cotton products as the main commodities in Normandy?

  Justin's grandfather once heard from a former comrade-in-arms that farmers in Normandy planted apple trees like a maze, which almost interfered with the actions of the Allies.

If she remembered correctly, Marie Arene, who was commemorated by the French Cheese Association, should still be alive. It is possible that Georgiana had seen her, but it was a pity that there were too many people at the time, and the women bosses of the textile industry stood in front. , she forgot to ask if it was milk from the cheese maker.

  Moldy cheese smells bad, but it won't kill people. If you really can't eat it, you can try cheese potion. It is said that it is not much different from the toffee that makes butter beer. How big is the difference between butter and cheese?

   In fact, she knows that low-temperature sterilization can be used to keep milk fresh, but this is not the most important issue at present.

   Cheap cotton and yarn can be imported from the "neutral countries" in the north, so that the interior of northern France, which does not have geographical advantages, will have more advantages in developing the cotton textile industry than the coast, provided that there is cotton to sell.

   She looked at the blank space on the west side of the map, and remembered some "past events".
