save the bachelors

Chapter 4143 4145 [Anti-Curse Equipment]

Although developing a laxative is not a good idea, Lily, Little Barty and Professor Slughorn don't mind.

On the one hand, being able to cure diseases and save lives is a great honor for them, and the thank-you letters they received alone made them very happy.

On the one hand, the sales of Tonglaeling were very hot. The first 100 bottles were sold out immediately after they were launched on the market. St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Insects even wanted to place long-term orders.

Conservatively speaking, the monthly income is 100 gold Galleons. If the four of them split it equally, they will each get 25 gold Galleons. Moreover, this is only the British wizarding world. When the laxative spirit is sold to the global wizarding world in the future, the profit will be even greater.

No one would be unhappy if you were famous and made money.

……

Little Barty was very happy. After he joined the team, he launched a series of practical potions, which not only showed his talent in potions, but also earned him a good reputation.

His mother sent an owl to deliver a letter to him, telling him that she was very happy about his achievements, and also specifically mentioned his father, Old Batty, who was also very satisfied with his achievements.

This made little Batty even happier.

"Severus, this is the first time my father has affirmed my performance." He said to Xiang Nan excitedly.

"There are no parents in the world who don't love their children." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Like me, I always thought my father didn't love me, but in fact he loved me in his heart, he was just embarrassed to say it."

"Oh?" Little Barty was curious, "Really?"

Xiang Nan nodded, and then told little Barty about Tobias Snape.

Hearing that Tobias drank all day and scolded Xiang Nan and his mother when he was drunk, little Batty was stunned with surprise.

His father is strict, but he does not commit domestic violence. Although he is not affectionate enough to him and often makes strict demands on him, he does not insult or scold him loudly.

So seeing that Tobias was even more outrageous than his father, he felt a little sympathetic to Xiang Nan.

When he heard that Tobias gave Xiang Nan twenty pounds before he went to school, little Batty was moved.

He never thought that such an irresponsible and violent father could have such a touching side.

"I still have this twenty pounds and I will never spend it in my lifetime." Xiang Nan took out the crumpled twenty pounds from his pocket and said, "It represents my father's love for me."

"Severus, I really envy you. I wish my father treated me like this." Little Barty couldn't help but sigh.

"In fact, the feelings between people are mutual." Xiang Nan persuaded with a smile, "You think your father treats you badly, so let me ask you, how do you treat him?

Have you ever expressed your love for him, said 'I love you' to him, prepared gifts for him, do you know what he really thinks? "

Little Barty was stunned and then shook his head.

He had never done any of these. Perhaps because old Batty was too strict, he was afraid and timid when he saw him since he was a child, so he didn't even dare to say much, let alone give his father a gift.

"So, if you want to break this situation, I suggest you take the first step." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Give your father a gift first."

"Send a gift? What gift?" Little Barty asked puzzledly.

"I know a perfume that is very suitable for middle-aged men." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "You just made some money, why not buy him a bottle and say that you bought it with your first money."

"Perfume?! My dad definitely wouldn't wear it. He never wears any perfume." Little Barty waved his hand.

He didn't believe that his father, such a conservative man, would wear perfume.

"He might not have wiped it before, but I'm sure he will wipe it as long as it's a gift from you." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"Really?" Little Barty was a little doubtful.

"If you don't believe me, just try it." Xiang Nan said with a smile. Little Barty nodded, and then bought a gift for his parents in Hogsmeade Village.

The dress I bought for my mother was a purple long dress from Fengya clothing store. It was elegant and dignified, and it cost me a full fifty Galleons.

For Lao Batti is a men's perfume recommended by Xiang Nan. It is mainly made with musk, sandalwood, etc., and is suitable for men with reserved and introverted personalities.

Little Barty sent the gift back home by owl and soon received a reply.

His mother was very happy to receive the gift and kept praising her son for his good taste and the beautiful styles of the clothes he bought.

This also made little Batty very happy.

His mother has always loved him, and he loves his mother too. Now, being able to make her happy is the happiest thing for him.

However, the reply from Barty Crouch Sr. disappointed him, because not only did Barty not thank him for the gift, but he also scolded him for spending his money indiscriminately and buying such expensive things.

This almost brought little Batty to tears.

With Xiang Nan's encouragement, he finally took the first step bravely, but he didn't expect to be hit head-on by his father, which really made him sad.

"Don't be sad, wait until Christmas." Xiang Nan advised him.

……

In addition to developing potions, Xiang Nan also developed anti-curse equipment with Lily, Lupin, and Barty Jr.

Just as George and Fred said in "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", there are very few people in the entire Ministry of Magic who can cast a complete Shield Charm.

Therefore, the Ministry of Magic customized 500 curse-proof hats at one time, making the two brothers rich.

Now is the period of the First Wizarding War, Voldemort and his men are wreaking havoc, and the people are in urgent need of life-saving equipment.

Although this anti-curse hat has limited defensive power and can only prevent some minor magic and curses, it is already very powerful.

The reason for involving Lupin was mainly to solve his financial problems.

As a werewolf, Lupin has been living in poverty since graduation.

Because werewolves are ostracized in the wizarding world and wizards will not hire werewolves, they rarely find jobs and generally live in poverty.

When Lupin first appeared, he looked extremely embarrassed, "wearing an extremely tattered wizard robe with patches in several places. He looked very young, but his light brown hair was mixed with white hair." It was all because he had no money.

And because of this, when Nymphadora Tonks fell in love with him, he did not dare to accept her love for fear of bringing trouble to her.

So Xiang Nan now pulls him in to develop anti-curse equipment together.

This business will surely make a fortune. By then, Lupin can make money with the patent and won't have to be so embarrassed and destitute.

Lupin once rejected Xiang Nan's invitation.

"It's not appropriate for me to join. It will bring trouble to you." He said with difficulty.

He knew that he was a werewolf and had to transform into a werewolf every month, so he couldn't help feeling inferior. He was afraid of being discovered and being disliked.

"On the contrary, I know you are very good at Defense Against the Dark Arts, and the anti-curse equipment I want to develop is to defend against dark magic." Xiang Nan smiled, "So it's just right for you to join."

"But..." Lupin was still a little hesitant.

"Give yourself some confidence. If you don't have the ability, I won't invite you at all." Xiang Nan smiled, "This is not charity, nor is it pity. I really need your talent."

Lupin then nodded.
