"The prerequisite for making money is that the person being made has money. The demand for fire dragon materials in today's magic world is not large and most people are reluctant to consume or even cannot afford it. My direct profit from the dragon farm is tantamount to increasing the number of fire dragons in disguise. If the cost of materials increases and the selling price of fire dragon materials increases, no one will buy it."

"So my way to make a profit is to first spend money to drive down the price of rare magic materials, including fire dragon materials, and then fund scientific researchers to conduct in-depth research on these magic materials to add added value that is enough to arouse the desire of wizards to buy them."

"Letting wealthy wizards take out the money stored in Gringotts and circulate it in the magical world, in a sense, is equivalent to more money in the magical world. With more money in the magical world, won't it be easy for me to make money? "

I don’t know if Dumbledore began to pay attention to the power of money and study it after listening to Travis’s “The Theory of Money” last time. This time, Dumbledore suddenly understood what Travis wanted to express. the meaning of.

"It sounds interesting, but what kind of added value can make people in the wizarding world want to buy it? At least the twelve uses of dragon blood I have researched should not have this appeal." Dumbledore asked.

"It's very simple~"

Travis jumped back to the safe and took out a bottle of red liquid that only covered the bottom of the bottle.

"This is a bottle of dragon's blood."

Dumbledore nodded.

"If someone develops a potion that uses dragon blood as the main ingredient, and this potion can improve the user's magic power or magic resistance, or simply enhance the physical fitness. Let's also assume that the price of the potion is that of an average wizard. It’s affordable, do you think a lot of wizards will buy it?”

Dumbledore frowned and wanted to refute Travis that dragon blood had no such effect, but suddenly realized that what Travis said was just a hypothesis.

"If there is such a function, I believe it will be." Dumbledore said.

"In myths and legends, bathing in dragon blood can make people invulnerable or even immortal. I don't believe in myths, but I believe that dragon blood must have other effects."

"I think even you, when you first studied dragon blood, didn't have enough to bathe a person, right?"

Travis shook the bottle. Just this amount of dragon's blood that could cover the bottom of the bottle cost Travis a hundred galleons. From this, he could roughly estimate how much dragon's blood it would take to bathe a person. The price is definitely in tens of thousands.

"I originally owned a bottle of dragon blood for research...the bottle is one size smaller than the one in your hand."

Travis was stunned for a moment: "Are you so rich? Do you have other small treasury?"

"A friend gave it to me."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I misunderstood... Can you introduce your wealthy friend to me?"

Dumbledore:  …

I feel so tired and want to ask someone to eat a big melon.

"He only has one bottle." Dumbledore explained and then hesitated: "I have something else to tell you."

"You say."

"I'm going to take back the time turner and study it carefully. Of course, after completing our agreement."

"Ok."

Travis readily agreed to Dumbledore's request and took back whatever was not his.

Besides, the side effects of the time turner are a bit too obvious for Travis, and it would be a disaster to have it in his hands.

"As long as you agree, let's go and fulfill our agreement." Dumbledore said as he stretched out his arm for Travis to grab.

However~

"Wait a mininute."

Travis began to take off his clothes, one layer, two layers, three layers, four layers...

Even though Dumbledore boasted that he was well-informed, he couldn't help but marvel at Travis's "cautiousness".

----

A month later, Travis had completed his agreement with Dumbledore and handed over the time turner after receiving another large amount of money.

At first, Travis thought that Dumbledore took back the Time Turner to go to a parallel world to study Voldemort's weaknesses. However, one day Travis saw in the Daily Prophet that the Ministry of Magic issued an announcement saying that it had been recovered and destroyed. All time converter.

The reason given was very short, saying that the time turner was too dangerous and was not conducive to the stability of the magical world.

Travis was sure that this matter must be related to Dumbledore, but he couldn't figure out why Dumbledore did this, and he couldn't ask Dumbledore directly because he couldn't find anyone.

Travis went to ask Professor McGonagall, who said that he did not know the whereabouts of Principal Dumbledore. He only knew that Principal Dumbledore had to leave for a period of time because of something, but he did not know the specific reason.

This was very puzzling to Travis, but within a few days of puzzling, Travis' attention was attracted by other things.

Harry suddenly invited him to steal the Philosopher's Stone, and told him that someone wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone, so they decided to steal the Philosopher's Stone first and protect it.

"With all due respect, if we first-year students can steal the Sorcerer's Stone, how can real thieves not be able to steal it?" Travis was confused and didn't understand how Harry's brain circuit worked. .

"No, Snape can't steal it because he doesn't know how to pass the level set by Professor Quirrell!" Harry said confidently.

"Oh, do you know how to pass?"

"Uh...don't know."

Travis rolled his eyes immediately.

"The problem is not that we know how to pass, the problem is that we don't even know what those levels are, and Snape definitely knows." Hermione explained helpfully.

"That's right, so we have to figure out what the level is first, and then find a way to pass it." Ron added.

Travis held his chin with one hand and tapped his cheek unconsciously with his fingers.

"I'm curious. Do you mean you are sure that Snape wants to steal the Sorcerer's Stone?" Travis asked.

"That's right!" the three said in unison.

"OK, then..." Travis stretched out his hand: "Give me the evidence, and I will go directly to Principal Dumbledore to report Snape...just to avenge the original deduction of points!"

The three of them immediately looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, and finally Harry took a deep breath and began to explain.

"We have no evidence... no... it's not that there is no evidence, but the evidence is not in our hands... and that's not right." Harry scratched his head: "I was the one who discovered Snape's strange whereabouts and overheard what happened between Snape and Snape. Quirrell was talking, so it was inferred that Snape wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone."

"Oh." Travis retracted his hand and rested his chin: "In other words, you heard Snape telling Professor Quirrell that he wanted to steal the Sorcerer's Stone? Or was he discussing with Professor Quirrell how to steal the Sorcerer's Stone?"

"No, but I heard Snape mention the Philosopher's Stone, and he threatened Professor Quirrell to tell him how to deal with Lu Wei... which is the first level of guarding the Philosopher's Stone I just mentioned." Harry explained.

"Well, so Snape is indeed suspicious...but we don't need to steal the Sorcerer's Stone," Travis said.

Harry: "Why?"

Hermione: "What better idea do you have?"

"In fact, Principal Dumbledore has long promised to lend me the Sorcerer's Stone for a while... As you know, I have always been interested in alchemy."

"So we don't have to steal the magic stone, we can get it openly!"
