HP Paranoia and Antisocial

Severus had one final check before admitting Ginny to the lab.Dumbledore was by his side too.

Waldmont hasn't brought Nagini together for a long time, and Dumbledore doesn't know the specific situation of Nagini.Seeing that Severus had prepared so carefully, he could tell that Nagini must have treated him well.

"It will take us at least a month from the beginning to the end of the curse." Severus turned off the device.

Dumbledore helped him and turned the magic-infused device from on to off: "Severus, I have something to do and I want to talk to you first."

From the night after Lily's wedding to yesterday, Dumbledore was discussing with Potter and the others how to cooperate with the Potions Studio to study improved Wolfsbane | potions.Since it is a cooperation, there is no way to only let the potion studio work, and there must be early research funding.

Naturally, they couldn't afford the same-sex fertility potion. Although the Potter's potion shop made money, they couldn't afford to invest in such a bottomless pit.If it is the blood curse antidote, this kind of research funding can be afforded.Breaking the Blood Curse was purely based on Wardmont's money, and Severus's own power generation, plus his busy work.Neither Severus nor Dumbledore paid much attention to money.

Of course, Dumbledore would not simply let the Potter family pay for research funding, he would also find other allies to contribute together.Afterwards, improving wolfbane|pharmaceuticals to make money naturally requires several companies to discuss the price together, so that a good price can be reached, which can be affordable by werewolves.

After making sure that the equipment was turned off, Severus took Dumbledore into the office together: "Albus, what do you want to say?"

"Do you remember Remus Lupine?" Dumbledore knew that Severus had a bad relationship with them in school.

"I remember." Severus vaguely guessed what Dumbledore was going to say.

Seeing that Severus had no objection, Dumbledore continued, "Remus is a werewolf."

"Want to improve Wolfsbane | potion?" Severus didn't want to go around in circles, and directly stated Dumbledore's purpose.

There was no doubt why Severus knew that Lupine was a werewolf, Dumbledore nodded: "Werewolves need improved wolfbane | potion, the old potion is not effective, it will damage the body of the werewolf, and the price is high, the werewolf I can’t afford it. Severus, look, Remus, a child like Remus, who was bitten by a werewolf and infected into a werewolf when he was young, even if he tries his best to hide himself and graduates smoothly, it is difficult to find a suitable job. work.

"The transformation period will cause them to fall into a weak state, and this weak state will last for quite a few days. This is already very fatal in the workplace. And most wizards will recognize Remus' identity after a few times , and then the prejudice against werewolves would make them decide to fire Remus.

"There are many wizards like Remus. They all live in isolation and have a difficult life. I hope I can do something for them."

Dumbledore also thought he should do something.He could help Remus for a while, but not forever.After taking him to see the life of a normal wizard, and allowing him to degenerate and be destroyed in the cold reality, that is the cruelest thing.And all the Remuses he saw were like this, what about the other werewolves who had the same experience as Remus?

He can't fix all prejudices, but he has to do something.

"I can see it." Severus knew that Dumbledore wanted to persuade him to participate in improving Wolfsbane|Pharmaceutical, "Do you already have a plan, a plan for cooperation?"

Dumbledore told Severus what he had been talking to Potter about, as well as some of the funding partners he was trying to persuade in his plan.Severus scratched the paper as he listened, and by the time Dumbledore finished speaking, he was almost done.

"I calculated it, and it takes about this much money." Severus gave Dumbledore the result of his calculation, "The Potter family can be the investor with the largest investment, and will have a larger share of future profit dividends." share. When you make an appointment with everyone, we can finalize the cooperation details."

Although he didn't want Potter to get any advantage, it was the most favorable situation for the Potter family to be the leader in this matter.Even if he didn't believe in James Potter, he still had to believe in Lily and the friendship between these Gryffindors.Especially when he learned that Dumbledore said that he would also invest a share, set aside his share and make a fund to provide assistance to werewolves, Severus admired Dumbledore even more.

Dumbledore put away the budget paper that Severus gave him. This is the bottom line for Severus' research and improvement of Wolfsbane|Pharmaceuticals, and he will try his best to get more investment.Sufficient funding can ensure that the project runs faster.

"The studio is not staffed enough." Dumbledore thought that there are actually many new potion masters who are trying to improve some simple potions. Of course, there are not only two or three projects in the potion studio, but they are Western medicine. Fleurs himself did little.But even so, the manpower of the potion studio is indeed quite insufficient.

Glancing at Severus, his eyes were severely blackened, as if he hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time.

"How about we recruit more Potionists?" Dumbledore suggested.

Severus rubbed his eyes and said, "It's better to lack than to overuse. Every year, the sixth graders of Hogwarts apply for internships, and we also select qualified people among the graduates. In addition to people from Britain, potions masters from other regions We also have recruitment. However, people who are 17 years old or older apply, and the competitiveness is not enough. When will the University of Wizardry open?"

"This year will be next September, and we will strengthen our publicity this year." Dumbledore still cared about him, and said, "Severus, you look tired."

Severus kneaded between his brows, feeling the headache caused by lack of sleep: "I've had a lot of dreams recently." And they were all vague nightmares, and every time I would wake up from my sleep, Severus hadn't been there for several days Sleep well.

"Don't strain your nerves too much, Nagini still needs you. We all hope you are healthy." Dumbledore recommended several sleep-aid ingredients and incense to Severus, when he couldn't sleep at night before These methods have been used, and it has indeed effectively improved his sleep quality.

Severus noted them all.

……

Obtaining this budget bottom line from Dumbledore greatly exceeded the expectations of the Potter family.Not to say too expensive, but too cheap.Ever since they learned that the same-sex fertility potion had swallowed an astronomical amount of Galleons, they were always prepared for the super high budget of the Wolfsbane|Pharmaceutical Improvement Project, but they did not expect the figure given by Severus So real.

"Our Potter family can afford this number," James murmured.

"No, we still need other partners to invest together." Old Porter didn't intend to eat it alone, he firmly rejected James' idea, "Improved Wolfsbane|Pharmaceutical Our ultimate goal is not just a potion , but also to improve the living environment of werewolves. The more people involved, the more allies we have.”

Dumbledore thinks James needs more growth.

"Should we draw up a template for the cooperation contract first? The next person to be discussed, the principal—Albus also needs to show them a suitable contract. Do we need to hide this part of the number?" Lily wanted to facilitate this cooperation .

"My suggestion is to double the bottom line ten times over," Porter Sr. said.When raising funds, of course, you can't show the bottom line to others as soon as you come, and investment will not be how much money you say, just invest as much as you want.Doubling the funding tenfold is trivial. Huabing said he dreamed of this set, but he started a long time ago.

Dumbledore did not deny Old Potter's proposal, and he originally planned to discuss cooperation with Old Potter and the others.It would be better to talk with people who are proficient in business.

……

Severus stroked the scales on Nagini's snake head, soothing Nagini's nervous heart when she came to the laboratory.

Waldmont followed him.

Soon, Nagini was going to drink the partition potion.

Is it just the beginning of school? Are you all busy?

I feel that there is no message, a little uncomfortable QAQ
