Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

"So, you're saying that the only products you can sell normally right now, including the not-yet-perfected humanoid target, are five kinds?" Vivian said, supporting her forehead with her hands, looking at Anduin speechlessly.

"For the moment, that's right." Anduin nodded, equally helpless.

"Then what kind of business are you even running? And why do all these products you've put out look like half-finished goods? They don't match your decor at all, and you're selling them so expensively." Vivian picked up a defensive amulet with a look of disdain, regarding it as if it were junk.

"Sigh, that's why I came to you. See if you can think of any solutions." Anduin shrugged, then looked at her. "By the way, didn't I give you and the others similar amulets? I didn't see you being so disgusted before."

"Hmph!" Vivian put her hands on her hips and hummed triumphantly. "That's because they were free before, so it didn't matter if they were half-finished. If you had tried to sell them directly back then, ghosts wouldn't have bought them."

"Besides..."

Vivian reached into her collar and pulled out a chain. "For half-finished products, I can reprocess them. Didn't you see that I turned the amulet you gave me into a pendant?"

Anduin looked closely, and it was indeed true. The pendant in Vivian's hand was indeed his amulet, but it was now completely unrecognizable.

The amulet no longer resembled its original metal coin form, but a round-faced rabbit head, with a cartoon image of a big white rabbit face painted on it with various colors.

The circular part in the center of the rabbit face was the amulet, and the two ears were obviously added later, but after Vivian's DIY, it was quite cute and interesting.

"Look, this is what a finished product looks like. Isn't making it like this much better than your dry little piece of iron?" Vivian said with a triumphant smile.

"Indeed, if the amulet is made into a pendant and some beautification is done, the appearance will be much better." Anduin nodded in agreement after seeing Vivian's demonstration.

"I just casually painted some interesting patterns with paint. You can also carve some exquisite patterns on the surface, preferably with some magical effects, like the magical patterns on furniture." Vivian continued to suggest.

"No, the current amulets are all engraved with runes using the Ming engraving method, so it's not easy to carve patterns." Anduin said hesitantly.

"Are you stupid?" Vivian rolled her eyes speechlessly. "You only engrave one side, right? The other side can be carved. And even if you really can't carve, then put a cover on it and carve it."

"Put a cover on it?" Anduin raised an eyebrow. He had never thought of that.

"That's right, a single amulet is too thin and too monotonous. Put a leather, cloth, or metal shell on the outside, and then do some artistic processing, whether it's carving, embroidery, or painting, you can make them transform gorgeously." Vivian said clearly and methodically.

"So it can be like this?" Anduin felt as if he had been awakened and instantly reacted.

"And that's not all. This kind of defensive amulet itself has an impact-triggered effect. It doesn't have to be made into a pendant to hang around the neck. You can completely add some decorations to these amulets and then make them into pendants, bracelets, brooches, or belt buckles."

After Vivian said that, she stretched out her arm, revealing a string of bracelets on her wrist.

"See this? These are the communication amulets you gave me and Charles before. I made them into couple bracelets, so it's much easier for us to contact each other."

"So, your communication bracelets can be completely processed into pairs of pendants, bracelets, and other couple items. Originally, these props you used for battlefield communication can be transformed into symbols of love with just a little packaging. It's actually very simple. To put it bluntly, it's just changing the skin and then making up a story or something."

"And this can also increase sales. It's too much trouble to sell them one by one. Wouldn't it be easier to sell them in pairs? Those young couples like it more, and I think they would be very happy to buy one as a gift for their other half." Vivian spoke eloquently about these things and became more and more excited as she spoke.

That makes sense. Anduin looked at Vivian with sudden realization. This guy is not simple. He really didn't choose the wrong person.

"I understand. So these amulets can be packaged like this. It seems that I usually only focus on research and ignore a lot of basic things." Anduin said to Vivian with satisfaction.

"It's not just these amulets, there are others." Vivian pointed to the other two props for sale.

"Like protective gloves, you can also package them, such as adding various different colors, matching them with gloves for the other hand, or making their shapes cooler. I think they will be very popular with boys."

"Even..." Vivian suddenly thought of something and looked at Anduin with a slightly strange expression. "You can even make them into Quidditch glove styles and sell them to those who like Quidditch."

"But, isn't it forbidden to use privately brought alchemical props in Quidditch?" Anduin frowned and looked at her with some incomprehension.

"Tch, Quidditch also says it wants to ban fouls. Have you ever seen a game where no one fouls? Cheating itself is part of the game. If you get caught, you'll just have it confiscated. And if the confiscation is frequent, it can also increase your sales. Anyway, you're just selling some alchemical props that look like Quidditch gloves. It's not you who's using them, so what are you afraid of?" Vivian said nonchalantly.

Anduin listened to Vivian's words with black lines all over his head. It's really something for you to be able to say cheating so confidently.

"Also, have you not noticed that there is a big problem with this product, these self-checking pocket watches you made?" Vivian crossed her arms in front of her chest and said with a mature look.

"Problem? What problem?" Anduin asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Why does this self-testing alchemical prop have to be put together with a pocket watch? You can completely take out the self-testing part and sell it to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. They seem to be the customers who need this equipment the most." Vivian said pointedly.

"This..." Anduin's mind suddenly opened up after being pointed out by Vivian. Yes, the reason why he made the self-scanning prop into a pocket watch in the first place was simply for convenience and to save space. Later, after it was made into a product, it naturally also produced it in the form of a pocket watch.
