Ted's "Smooth Shampoo" is different from ordinary business. This thing has special meaning to Sirius.
Because my friend James Potter's family was in the shampoo business for generations, but they stopped doing it in James Potter's generation.
The gold in his family's treasury is the wealth he saved at that time - Hallie is now a rich woman!
That is because James Pott took Lily away, so Snape hated James and everything related to him, including shampoo. So Snape stopped washing his hair with shampoo.
Snape: Do you know why I don't wash my hair with shampoo? Dogs don’t even use Pote’s shampoo!
Ted and Sirius worked together to pick up Potter's ancestral business again.
I guess Sirius will consider this as one of Harley's future dowries.
Ted didn't care about anything, he only offered one recipe, technical investment, accounting for 15% of the store's pure dividends.
This made Ron greedy!
This year, he has realized deeply that a galleon is difficult for the great wizard; it is difficult to move without money; soup without salt is worse than water; without money, a man is worse than a ghost!
Ron also complained: "When will these poor days end?"
His good brother George enlightened him: "It depends on how long you can live."
Ted: Don't worry, I'll take you with me next time.
The magical world of Great Britain is so small that any changes will easily spread throughout the magical world.
Especially when the former "Porter Shampoo" reappears.
With the Black family's connections, the store's momentum has become very large. According to the report in the Daily Prophet, Minister of Magic Fudge even attended the ribbon-cutting.
This guy just came to power two years ago. While he needs Dumbledore's support, he also needs to contact pure-blood families for support. The photos in the newspapers show his teeth when he smiles.
As the inventor of smooth shampoo, Ted was also known by some well-informed people.
After all, the Potter family's prescriptions were out of date. They were old prescriptions from decades ago, and their family has not sold shampoo for more than 20 years.
James Potter inherited the family property after graduation and gave up this ancestral industry.
At that time, the Potter family no longer needed to save money, but needed some social status, such as joining the Order of the Phoenix~
As a well-known person, Lockhart is quite well-informed.
So, he soon learned that it was his "protégé" Ted who invented the smoothing shampoo.
He also specially bought it and tried it, and the effect was unexpectedly good.
To be honest, he was quite jealous!
Although he says in the book that his greatest ideal is world peace or something like that, how is that possible?
For so many years, Lockhart did not dare to tell anyone about his dream of developing a shampoo.
As a result, my student, a second-grade wizard, developed such an easy-to-use shampoo, what a feeling!
It seems like countless ants are crawling on me!
Lockhart was crawling with jealousy. Although he had all kinds of criticisms about this shampoo, he was still very honest! Already used!
Gilderoy Lockhart once tried to invent a shampoo made from the yolk of a bird's egg, but this shampoo was expensive - the eggshell of the bird's egg was pure silver and had a certain effect on use. hazardous and therefore never sold to the mass market.
Before he knew Ted, he had invented two popular products, "Hair Dye" and "Acne Remover", and he had an idea in mind.
It seems that my student is not just good at studying.
I wanted to take advantage of the Boy Who Lived's fame, but it didn't look like he was very successful right now.
Otherwise, should I change my target?
Ted is not bad either!
…
Ted still doesn't know that dear Professor Lockhart is planning to use the name of his mentor to gain aura, or it can be regarded as a kind of venture capital.
If Ted becomes popular in a few years, then Lockhart now has a good eye for recognizing people!
Ted was fishing on the Black Lake at this time.
That’s right, fishing.
When he was doing his morning jog, he noticed a lot of big fish jumping around in the lake. This was definitely a provocation!
Pump water, pump water~
In his spare time, Ted made a fishing rod and wanted to see if he could catch anything.
Don't tell me, there is!
After fishing for twenty minutes, I finally caught a big tortoise!
The small basin is so big! There are sharp thorns all over the back.
Ted searched in his mind and found the corresponding species in a magazine introducing magical creatures.
"Iron snapping turtle? What a guy, it's still an invasive species!"
Ted thought that maybe a young wizard from a previous class bought it as a pet, but got tired of it over time and threw it into the Black Lake.
This is not okay, invasive species cannot be left alone.
What's more, the book says this thing nourishes the body, and tortoise shell is always a good potion ingredient.
As a result, the Hogwarts kitchen has welcomed a new recipe "Braised Tin Snapping Turtle"!
This thing is so hard that even a house elf couldn't get rid of it without cutting off the curling blade of a kitchen knife.
It's better for Ted to directly use Shen Feng Wuying and give it a Overlord Disarm.
Then he found a big pot, took out all the precious spices he bought from the Chinese supermarket, and looked at the potions that Harry had stolen from Snape's private vault during this period. Inside~
Finally, it is heated for a long time with a blazing flame. Xiaoweier is scratching~
The braised iron snapping turtle took two hours to come out of the pot. As soon as the lid was opened, a golden dragon turtle soared into the sky~
A group of elves and friends followed Ted and stared at the ceiling of the kitchen. They stood there for a long time without saying anything. Finally, Ted broke the calm: "Ahem, this snapping turtle should have returned to bliss. We should do it for him." It feels happy.”
Before, Hermione said: Turtle is so cute! How can you eat a turtle!
He reached out and touched it, and then said: Ah, bite! Get me half of one, simmer it over low heat until it gets a little mushy! ! !
Now she enjoys eating the most.
The friends were all so excited that even Ron smiled and showed his molars.
As the saying goes:
The tendons on the hoofs of animals, the treasures in the palms of birds.
Fish crescent meat, soft-shell turtle skirt trimmings.
When you take that bite of turtle meat and the collagen on the skirt, it not only smells delicious, but also a warm current spreads to the limbs and bones, making you feel so good~
This is magic food after all, with medicine in it~
Is Potions + Herbology + Cooking a success?
Medicinal diet~ quite promising!
Nowadays, there are eighteen elves in the kitchen, known as the Eighteen Elves in the kitchen. They are all skilled in cooking and have their own specialties.
That's quite nice.
Pickled salted duck eggs, Kung Pao chicken, spicy shredded chicken, British meat buns, Hogwarts spicy soup... In half a month, the Hogwarts menu has doubled in thickness.
There is even an elf making authentic Lao Bai Jing fried noodles while humming: Look at this noodle, it’s so big and wide~
Don't tell me, this magical world is not a mess. If you don't hum, the taste of the noodles and the magical effect of making people happy will be almost meaningless.
I believe that within a few years, the Hogwarts kitchen will become a magical food mecca and the ultimate training ground for all magical chefs~
That night, the house elves collectively showed off their recent achievements.
More than twenty new dishes were put on the table, including crispy roast duck and braised Thames carp.
Because European food is different from that of China. In China, saltiness is the base taste, while here, sweetness is the base taste. Everything you eat has sugar!
So it is still adjusted according to local taste.
The entire auditorium was filled with various aromas, and one whiff made all the cells in the body feel happy and active.
Each dish shines brightly as soon as the cover is lifted! ,
Then a dragon flew out and soared into the sky, holding this big fragrant elbow in its mouth~
As long as you take one bite, you will be bursting with delicious food - the whole person will feel like swimming in a free and warm current~
In my mind, a group of beauties wearing Bavarian dresses danced together, and then they came together. The word "fragrance" was written on the lady's feather fan!
Many little wizards actually sat down on the ground after taking one bite. That was a huge boost!
The little Hufflepuff wizard asked Ted with an expression of disbelief: "How did you do it?"
Ted smiled very reservedly: "It's a magic potion, I gave it."
It is said that after this meal, many Hufflepuff students spent their after-school hours in the kitchen.
So much so that a famous saying came out a few years later: If you meet a magical cooking chef who graduated from Hufflepuff, marry him!
Looking at the extremely lively auditorium, everyone was enjoying the food, laughing and cheering, and it was very lively.
Ron was extremely envious. When would he be able to lead everyone together and make them all happy?
While Jerry was happily eating the fish, he asked shamelessly: "Tell me, why do fish have thorns? It would be so convenient to eat without thorns!"
Hermione rolled her eyes at him: "The fish doesn't want you to eat it."
Ted laughed and said, "That's a sea cucumber you're talking about. Only people who play football and are terrible at it eat it."
…
Today's dinner was so sumptuous that even Flitwick and Professor McGonagall were full of praise.
But one person didn't make it - Lockhart.
What is he doing? He is writing a plan.
He feels that he has been too low-key recently and must do something.
If he doesn't do anything for a week, he feels like there are ants crawling all over his body! So I wrote a plan...
As a result, Lockhart learned that he had missed a feast.
He is also curious, why are you saying that if you eat it, you will become an immortal and meet Merlin?
He just wanted to try it.
The master chef in the kitchen, the house elf Kaka, patted her chest and promised Professor Lockhart: I will use all my strength, just watch it~
It didn’t take long for the dishes to be ready, rosy and beautiful for the photo~
Lockhart picked up a red and shiny piece of dish that looked very appetizing and put it into his mouth.
Chew Chew Chew~ Yeah! Very fragrant~
But there is a strange, indescribable smell in the fragrance. Very top!
Lockhart seemed to be reminded of the Valentine's Day when he sent himself a hundred letters when he was in school... That was my lost youth!
After a long while, Lockhart wiped the tears from his eyes and asked curiously: "What is the name of this dish?"
Kaka smiled~
Yesterday’s description about eating chili peppers was modified, and the reviewer disagreed...
