Hogwarts: Breaking off the engagement at the beginning and marrying Hermione instead

"Albert, please don't keep me in suspense.

I know you asked me to come here not just for me to praise you for having a good son.

Tell me, what exactly do you want to do?

What is your purpose?"

Mr. Foley was not annoyed at what Snape said.

Instead, he said excitedly:

"As you can see, the value of this potion is really too great.

This is a new path.

I dare say that no one has had such a brilliant idea in thousands of years.

This is a unique way of fighting for the potion master!

It is different from spells and transfiguration.

It has a strong vitality!

Endless possibilities!

You can imagine how valuable it is."

Speaking of this, Mr. Foley's mood couldn't help but drop again:

"Likewise, I can't keep this secret by myself.

Neither can the Foley family.

So I need your help, Severus."

But Snape was somewhat unmoved:

"I doubt you have sought help from other wizarding families.

Albert"

"Of course I have looked for more than one.

The Greengrass family, the Ollivander family, the Weasley family, etc.

These families who have been friends with my family for generations are willing to work together with my family for this exciting thing, but none of their families have a master of potions.

And I am not sure about the others.

After thinking about it, only you are the most suitable, Severus. Young and powerful!"

"You know my past, Albert."

Snape said coldly

"Of course, I know that. But just like my father said, you are not that kind of person, Severus.

That is why I still believe in you."

Mr. Foley's words eased Snape's expression a lot.

After a moment of silence, he asked:

"What do you want me to do for you?

Or what can I do for you?"

Mr. Foley smiled.

As long as you agree, it will be easy.

"What you need to do is very simple. First, help my son become famous. I will help him wash away the shame.

After that, I will hold a press conference and you will be needed as a potion master to promote the alienated potion.

Finally, promise to keep the secret of the formula together and help each other!

As for the reward, how about the formula of the alienated potion?

I think for a potion master like you, there is nothing more exciting than this."

"Are you telling the truth?"

Snape stared at Mr. Foley as if he could see through his heart. He obviously didn't believe him.

After all, the value of the alienation potion was self-evident.

He didn't believe that such a formula would be given to him so easily.

"Of course, and don't use your Legilimency on me.

But the premise of giving you the formula is that you must first sign this contract and promise not to tell anyone the formula.

590 You can use it yourself but you can't supply it to others."

Mr. Foley took out an ancient sheepskin contract and said.

There were many names signed on it, big and small.

Weasley, Greengrass and other names of people with great reputation in the wizarding world were all on it.

"Sure enough, I knew it wasn't that simple.

The Star God's Contract.

The Fry family has a lot of treasures."

Snape said sarcastically

"But I promise you! Just like you said, nothing can fascinate me more than this powerful formula."

Having lost Lily, his only pursuit now is powerful strength.

And the alienation potion just meets his needs.

He picked up the quill on the table and signed his name with the magical dragon blood potion.

He dripped another drop of his own blood on the name.

The blood fell on the parchment, as if it had life and merged with"Severus Snape".

Disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, a powerful will seemed to appear in the sky.

It was as if all the stars gathered together and shone brightly.

A strange and mysterious voice echoed in everyone's ears.

Although it was not clear what he said, he could understand what he meant:

""The contract is established!"

With this voice, all the people who signed their names on the contract felt something in their hearts.

They felt that there was an extra shackle on their bodies.

This shackle would not have any effect on them at ordinary times, but when someone wanted to violate the contract, they would be threatened with death.

With the completion of the contract, the mysterious parchment also turned into a starlight and disappeared into the sky, as if it had never existed.

Looking at the disappearing parchment, Mr. Fry had some regrets in his eyes.

But this regret soon disappeared.

""Brown! Bring me the recipe."

Braun handed over a piece of parchment respectfully.

Snape didn't hesitate.

He stared at the recipe written in dark green ink and started reading.

"Lovage, dried nettle, pufferfish eye, three rat tails, vines of alienated seeds. Mistletoe berries……"

"Very immature. Some of the things in it have completely opposite effects.

If I improve it, the effect can be improved by 10%.

By the way, what is the alienated seed in it?"

Snape put down the formula and looked up and asked

"After many alienation plants died, they condensed into seeds."

"After death, it condenses into seeds?

Why did the experiment just now……"

"You have a backup plan?"

Brown said with a shy smile.

Snape understood instantly:

"No wonder some of these ingredients have the opposite effect.

Even if they are only used in small amounts, they will make the potion impure, thus reducing its effectiveness.

Logically, you should not be able to fail to see it. It turns out that it was intentional."

Braun blushed a little, but Mr. Fry was oblivious:

"Isn't this a normal operation for potion masters?

Severus, don't tell me that the potions you configure and sell have not been reduced in effect."

Snape snorted coldly and said nothing.

But that look clearly indicated his consent.

This is a tacit rule among potion masters.

It is to ensure that the formula will not be lost and prevent their peers from reversely deducing the formula.

It is also to increase the price of potions and earn gold galleons over a long period of time.

Just like the wolfsbane potion that has just appeared in the past two years.

Not only is it expensive, but the effect is actually just suppression. Is there really no way to suppress it for a long time?

Maybe not, but it is more likely because this is not in line with the long-term...

Take acne potion for example.

It's the same.

This is why potion masters are so rich.

"I need the original formula.

Also, as a price, I can help you add some materials to make this castrated formula more difficult to decipher."

Braun turned his gaze to his father.

Although he was a time traveler, he was far inferior to his father in this life in terms of cunning and scheming.

In Braun's view, he just developed a new potion.

Although he was excited, he didn't care much.

But when he showed these to Mr. Foley, he actually used this potion to connect so many families.

Now even Snape was tied on the ship.

It can be seen that Mr. Foley has methods.

Mr. Foley frowned.

After thinking for a moment, he said:

"Impossible! But I can give you the second generation formula"

"No problem.

Snape agreed readily.

This was originally for his research.

The second generation formula is the second generation formula.

"Braun gave it to him."

Braun did not delay, took out a piece of parchment and started writing.

Yes, the second generation did not leave the formula.

Not only the second generation formula, but also the original formula.

All of them were memorized in Braun's mind.

This can also guarantee the safety of the formula to the greatest extent.

Looking at the sloppy handwriting.

Snape frowned.

But after seeing these contents, he relaxed again, with some doubts:

"There are still alienated seeds. How to cultivate them?"

But seeing Mr. Fuli's sneer,

I think I can't get them. (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"In other words, the effect of the second-generation formula is to cooperate with the plants that control the seeds of alienation?"

"That's right. If you need it

, we can give you one."How could Snape refuse? He agreed without hesitation.

He took the red seed from Brown and observed it repeatedly.

"Add your own blood to the alienated potion and pour it on the alienated seed to control it.

However, its intelligence is very low and it can only execute some simple commands."

Braun added.

This seed is a sub-strain of the seed he has been cultivating for some time.

Perhaps because the alienated plant still has plant characteristics.

After Braun repeatedly poured the potion, the alienated plant actually had the effect of splitting into sub-strains.���

Although these sub-strains are independent of the mother plant, they are controlled by the mother plant.

The same is true for their seeds.

If Braun wants, he can even force the mother plant to devour these alienated plants.

Increase strength.

This is why Braun has been persuading Mr. Fly to publish the alienation potion.

Not only can he earn gold galleons, but he can also let wizards help him cultivate alienated plants for free.

This is what he really wants.

Braun, your wonderful ideas sometimes really amaze me.

Okay, Albert, since everything has been said,

I should go.

Now I can't wait to do research.

As for modifying the formula,

I will definitely send it to you before a week.

I will also plan other requirements as soon as possible."

After saying goodbye to the people of the Foley family, Snape left impatiently.

The father and son smiled at each other in the room, and everything was said without words.

A week passed in a flash.

Snape was indeed worthy of being a potion master.

After his preparation, the difficulty of the original formula not only increased by more than a dozen ingredients compared to the original.

However, the efficacy and difficulty of refining did not change.

On the contrary, it was much simpler than the original formula.

You should know that the difficulty of potions increases with the increase of raw materials during refining.

And Snape was able to reduce the difficulty of refining after adding more than a dozen raw materials to the potion. This is simply incredible.

After getting the formula.

Mr. Foley and Brown stepped up the refining.

After three days of refining day and night, they finally refined a thousand bottles of alienated potions.

After a day of rest, Mr. Foley began to send messages to various fields in the magic world.

Prepare to hold a grand banquet at home to celebrate his son's receipt of the admission letter from Hogwarts.

Of course, this is just a superficial statement.

In fact, this is what Mr. Foley and Snape discussed.

Prepare to use this banquet to officially push Brown to the front.

Wash away the humiliating title of the Foley family's squib.

By the way, push the news of the alienated potion to the magic world.

With the release of Mr. Foley's message.

The calm magic world also began to discuss.

Even the Daily Prophet even opened a page to discuss this matter.

"Albert Foley, the head of the Foley family, will soon hold a banquet for his son's successful admission to Hogwarts.

Is this a big deal or is the family in decline?"

Mr. Foley sneered as he read the newspaper:

"I hope these groundless bugs will dare to say so again tomorrow."

Over the years, with the death of his father, although the Fuli family is still wealthy, it has actually begun to decline.

This made him anxious and he also began to focus on training Braun.

He thought that it would take a few years for Braun to be able to stand on his own.

But he didn't expect that his son would give him such a big surprise.

And this surprise will make the Fuli family return to the top again!

Putting down the newspaper.

Mr. Fuli began to direct the house elves in the house to make the arrangements.

He was really impatient for tomorrow's banquet.

He couldn't bear to see the ugly faces of those wizards.

Thinking so in his heart, Mr. Foley couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The house elves looked at each other, wondering what had happened to their master.

On a hill far outside the village of Ottery St. Catchpole, there was a magical and strange four-story building.

This was the Burrow, the residence of the Weasley family.

What was different from the past was that this house was noisy all day long.

It seemed much quieter at this moment.

Inside the house, pieces of beautifully crafted dresses and shoes were thrown randomly in various corners of the living room.

Mrs. Weasley was eagerly letting her children try on clothes.

From time to time, she scolded the twins who were fighting.

""That's enough! George Fred! Change your clothes!

And Ron! Put the mouse down! Stop wasting time!

Percy? Percy! Bill, go get him out of the second floor!

I don't know what this kid is doing in the house all day."

Molly Weasley yelled at her children while giving them instructions in an orderly manner.

Fred put on a white shirt and smiled at his mother:

"Percy fell in love with a Muggle girl and was thinking about how to confess to her!

I have seen her. The girl is in a village not far away."

""Shut up! Fred! Keep your clothes on!"

Percy came down from upstairs with some anger.

He was obviously very unhappy with his brother for exposing his unrequited love.

"Stop arguing! We have to go to your Uncle Fly's house to help him later!

Don't waste my time anymore or you'll all stay at home."

Hearing this, Fred and Percy pursed their lips.

They put on their own clothes, as if they were not the ones arguing just now.

Looking at the children who finally started to try on clothes, Mrs. Weasley finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After combing her little daughter's hair, she also hurried upstairs to change clothes.

""Arthur! Don't sleep any more!"

Mrs. Weasley shouted to her husband who was still sleeping soundly in bed while changing her clothes.

"Let me rest for a while, we are just going to help.

There is no need to get up so early."

Arthur Weasley muttered a few words after hearing his wife's voice, turned over and went back to sleep.

"Being on time is a good habit! Arthur! Clear spring water!"

Mrs. Weasley waved her wand and woke up the sleeping Arthur Weasley.

He was startled.

"Oh, okay, Molly."

After being hit by the cold water, Arthur Weasley obviously no longer had any sleepiness.

He wiped his face and yawned helplessly.

"You go take a shower.

I'll go down and help the children get dressed.

Remember, be on time, Arthur, don't be late.

I know you've been tired lately, but hang in there."

""Yes, I will, Molly."

He kissed his wife and watched her leave in a hurry.

He rubbed his face and began to wash.

During this period, the Ministry of Magic has begun to clear out Muggle items.

Some wizards who secretly use magic to transform Muggle items are punished.

So during this period, he has to run around to conduct surprise inspections on the homes of those wizards every day.

As a result, he has little time to rest, which is why he is so tired.

Standing under the shower while washing his hair,

Arthur Weasley's thoughts can't help but go back to a night a few days ago.

"Albert, what do you want to talk to me about so late at night?"

In the private room of the Leaky Cauldron,

Arthur Weasley asked Albert Foley sitting opposite him in confusion.

Mr. Foley said bluntly without beating around the bush:

"Of course, Arthur. I need your help."

"Help? I don't think I can help you."

Arthur Weasley poured a glass of absinthe and drank the green liquor in the glass.

Mr. Foley ignored him and said:

"My son Braun has invented a magical potion.

But I don't think our family can keep him safe."

"So you want to involve me, right?

But I don't have any power, Albert, you know that."

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the magic world.

After some potion families and alchemy families invent some magical items or potions, they think they can't protect them alone, so they will look for a few families with good relationships to give benefits.
