Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Chapter 86 Derivatives: Youth Facial Soap

Making potions is not as troublesome as making wands.

To be precise, as her strength changes, the information given by Zhiming Compass will become clearer.

Therefore, the "Youth Facial Soap" information given this time has almost all the formulas and production steps clearly written down.

After Lin Xia knew the steps, she understood why Zhiming Compass gave the comment that "it is possible to draw conclusions by analogy".

The preliminary steps of youth facial soap are almost exactly the same as making the new scabies potion!
Only the fourth and fifth steps have changed. The materials added are different, but these materials have been tested before when researching new scabies potions.

Therefore, youth facial soap can be said to be an accessory developed incidentally while researching scabies potion.

But the benefits brought by this accessory are far more impressive than the scabies potion.

Lin Xia made a board of youth facial soap that night without telling Draco immediately. The next day she went to Sprout Medicine Garden to help as usual, and in the afternoon she went to Hagrid's cabin to observe tigers.

Draco originally wanted to go see tigers and lions with Lin Xia, but due to Snape's strict requirements, he could only huddle in the laboratory and continue writing reports.

When the next day came Sunday, after the youth facial soap had been left to stand for a day and the soap body had dried, Lin Xia told Draco her new discovery.

In the laboratory, Draco looked at her in shock: "You said that after reading my report, you had new ideas and developed a youth facial soap. This soap can be used to cleanse facial oil and also Get rid of acne?”

Lin Xia nodded calmly and added: "It's not a new idea. I analyzed it based on your data report. An idea flashed in my mind and I created another thing. You can think of it as researching scabies medicine. Incidental spin-offs.”

Draco quickly shook his head: "The production steps may be very similar, but these are not derivatives. The effects of the two are completely different. The facial soap you developed will definitely sell better than the scabies potion."

Lin Xia didn't intend to continue arguing with him, they were just exchanging compliments.

She said: "So I said that the rewards I will gain will be great. You should write your paper on the scabies potion."

Draco didn't know what he thought of. He rolled his eyes and said enthusiastically: "I'll write a paper with you. Come on, come on, you and I will find Professor Snape."

Lin Xia glanced at him, "No, I made an agreement with Dean Sprout a long time ago. When I really research something, I will tell her as soon as possible. I plan to let her be my thesis instructor."

Although Professor Sprout is not good at making potions, she is an excellent herbalist. To be the dean of Hufflepuff, she definitely has two skills.

She maintains good supply relationships with many potion masters. Some potion masters will write letters to ask Professor Sprout when they get stuck on the ingredients when researching new potions.

As it happens, what Lin Xia needs least is potion guidance, and what he needs most is connections.

Regarding the testing issue of "Youth Facial Soap", Draco was more concerned than Lin Xia, the developer.

After learning the news in the morning, he barely suppressed his thoughts and wrote two papers. In the afternoon, he couldn't sit still and took Lin Xia to find Dean Sprout.

Dean still stays in the flower shed planting flowers and plants on Sundays, and likes to turn on WWN radio to listen to the music of the Weird Sisters. It is a relaxing and healing time for her.

When she saw Lin Xia and Draco coming over, she was a little surprised and said jokingly: "Little wizard, I don't have that much work for you to complete. You should enjoy campus life more."

"Well, if you want to ask me for some herbs, I think I'd be happy to give you some." Dean Sprout winked at them.

Draco couldn't wait to say: "Dean, it's not a matter of work-study. Lin Xia has developed a youth facial soap and wants you to be her mentor!"

"Youth facial soap?" Dean Sprout looked a little strange, "Isn't Lin Xia developing a potion?"

Lin Xia said at this time: "Professor, this thing is a derivative of blind speculation while studying potions."

Dean Sprout understood, shook his head and shrugged, hummed a few words along with the music, and then said: "Why don't you see that when I was studying herbal medicine, I also developed a few bottles of magic potion derivatives."

A faint smile flashed across the corner of Lin Xia's mouth.

……

By the time Lin Xia and Draco walked out of Dean Sprout's office, it was already dusk.

Draco was really jealous.

Compared to Professor Snape's request, Dean Sprout's request was as harmonious as the spring breeze.

After she used the magic spell to test that the youth facial soap was non-toxic and had no side effects, she looked at the production data presented by Lin Xia in detail and asked Lin Xia to only write three reports.

One report explains the ideological inspiration, one report explains the production principle, and one report describes the effect.

Dean Sprout said: "This type of facial soap involves beauty, and everyone cares more about its efficacy than a bunch of lengthy data report analysis, so there are a lot of subsequent test reports.

But you don’t have to worry about this. I have someone else who can help test it. I will read the report one step ahead of you. If there is any harm in the report, I will not invent your facial soap. "

The reason why Lin Xia is not allowed to write so much data analysis is because beauty products are very profitable.

She was worried that the data released by Lin Xia was too detailed and would be cracked by other companies and launch price wars with similar effects.

Although Lin Xia may not care about this, and even if there is a problem, there will be someone to help solve it, but it would be better to avoid solving the problem from the source.

Lin Xia nodded and said: "Professor, just go and test it. I am confident in my product."

The two went to the Great Hall to finish their meal and found that the little wizard was a little restless tonight and kept staring at someone at the Gryffindor table.

Before Draco could ask, his roommates Toure and Robin spoke out like they were pouring the beans.

"Harry actually became Gryffindor's Seeker, and he's only in his first year!"

"No first-year wizard is allowed to play Quidditch in school, so he is named Seeker!" "Unprecedented, Hogwarts has never had a Seeker for one year!"

The expressions of the little wizards were undisguised envy. They also wanted to play Quidditch, and they also wanted to represent the academy in Quidditch.

Draco was envious at first, but he didn't have the slightest thought of jealousy.

He had competed with Harry, and Harry's Quidditch talent was even better than his.

Before practicing the skills, Draco might have put some thought into Quidditch. After learning about it, he would probably think of a way to see if he could become Hufflepuff's seeker.

But now that he has practiced, Draco's thoughts have become lighter.

A person's time in a day is limited, and he can only focus on a few things. He cannot be omniscient and omnipotent.

Just doing experiments, writing papers, practicing, reading stories, and previewing textbooks took up most of his energy every day.

I wanted to take some time out of this to practice Quidditch, but there was no time left.

What's more, Quidditch is about talent, just like transfiguration. Now you only need to practice every day to slowly improve your talent.

He was too busy practicing, so how could he have time to be distracted by Quidditch?

Ture and Robin knew how much Draco loved Quidditch, so they looked at him specifically.

Seeing that Draco remained silent, the two friends specially explained:

"You are also great. Harry can become the Seeker because there is no one in Gryffindor's team, so he has to be selected as the main choice."

"When you reach second year, I believe you will definitely be able to join the Hufflepuff team."

"Actually, I think you can join the Hufflepuff team now. Our college has always had nothing to do with Quidditch."

Ture glared at Robin and said, "Don't listen to Robin's nonsense. Accidents often happen during Quidditch training. My father said that the school is afraid of little wizards getting into trouble, so it is restricted to the second grade."

Draco came to his senses, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, I'm not envious, and I'm not jealous either. In fact, I've been so busy these days that I have no time to think about Quidditch."

He emphasized loudly: "Really!"

Toure and Robin reluctantly believed it.

But after dinner in the auditorium, when the two of them continued to work on their papers in the laboratory, Draco still secretly asked Lin Xia.

"Lin Xia, can I increase my Quidditch talent by practicing Eastern secrets?"

Lin Xia gave him a funny look, "Aren't you not interested?"

Draco turned away shyly.

Lin Xia stopped teasing him and said with certainty: "Yes, absolutely. It is a comprehensive upgrade of physical fitness. If you practice well, it is not impossible to transform into a humanoid tyrannosaurus."

"Humanoid Tyrannosaurus?"

Draco repeated this word several times, and his eyes lit up. He liked this word!

……

On Monday, the morning class is Potions class.

After graduating from the sobriety potion, the third thing the little wizard learned was the "expansion potion".

Compared with scabies potion and sobriety potion, swelling potion is actually not more difficult. It is not much different from sobriety potion, but the risk is increased.

Because one of the raw materials of the swelling potion - pufferfish eyes, if not handled properly, is very likely to introduce tetrodotoxin into it.

This toxin will evaporate, but because the dose is not large, the little wizard will only faint after being absorbed and will not be poisoned further.

So my daily routine in Potions class these days is——

While doing this, a companion fell down.

As he was doing it, his companion fell down.

As he was doing it, he even fell down.

The difficulty of the swelling potion lies not in the production process, but in how to handle the raw materials more properly and isolate pufferfish eyes without toxins.

This early in the morning, Snape was in a bad temper, especially since Harry Potter was in this class.

He summoned all his strength to attack Harry Potter, but with the help of the top student Hermione and the prophet Mikel, Harry managed to cope with it.

No more sarcastic words like "The famous Harry Potter doesn't know XXX" came out of Snape's mouth.

But every time Harry faltered and couldn't answer, his eyes would show a hint of mockery.

It is not very harmful and extremely insulting.

"Lin Xia, what is the eighth step of the expansion potion?" Snape suddenly turned his gun and asked Lin Xia.
