Chapter 005: Prices and Materials
Thank you, Uncle Bojin, " Aiven said sincerely
Similarly, the black dragon of the Heshidili Islands, which also resides in the United Kingdom, poses a far greater danger than the green dragon of Wales. Although the black dragon of the Heshidili Islands has a particular fondness for venison, it does not exclude other large animals, including humans.
However, regardless of the danger posed by dragon-like creatures or the regulations of the Ministry of Magic, such situations are not permitted. Even noble pure-blood families cannot openly raise dragon-like creatures
Of course, this price is purely a super discount given by Ollivander to Harry Potter. Normally, the cheapest wand is priced at over 20 Galleons
Even Harry Potter's wand only costs 7 Galleons
Aiven was momentarily taken aback, "Uncle Bokin, how did you know?"
In the diagonally opposite alley, the Leaky Cauldron has marked the monthly salary for shop assistants at 42 Galleons in the Daily Prophet's job advertisement; the monthly salary for a dragon keeper at Gringotts is 28 Galleons
Aiven pondered whether the question was being asked by Bokin Boke or by his father, the Count of Golden Griffin. However, in an instant, Aiven ceased to delve deeper into the matter
Although the value of the Felicity Potion is 2,000 Galleons, for both Borkin Bork and the Gryffindor family, a mere 2,000 Galleons is truly not a significant amount.
Of course! If I could obtain silver, that would be absolutely wonderful. Additionally, I need some dragon scales, specifically the scales from the black dragons of the Heshidili Islands.
Bojin Bo Ke heard that Aiven needed the scales of the black dragon from the Heshidili Islands, and his expression was momentarily startled. He then furrowed his brows and said, "Little Aiven, are you sure you only need the scales? In any case, I will not provide you with any eggs of dragon-like creatures."
Is there any difference whether Bo Jin Bo Ke is inquiring or his father is inquiring? In any case, as long as he speaks, all the details will certainly be known to his father
One gold galleon is exchanged for seventeen silver sickles, and one silver sickle is exchanged for twenty-nine bronze knuts. According to the current price level in the wizarding world, the most dangerous profession in the Ministry of Magic's largest department, the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, the Aurors, earn only 170 gold galleons per month.
It is evident that Bo Jin Bo Ke believes that Ai Wen has developed the idea of breeding dragon-like creatures
Silver is a special magical metal, and its application in the wizarding world is not widespread, primarily being used extensively at Hogwarts, thereby prohibiting the use of Apparition
This time, Aiven did not refuse
The test of life and death, and the reward is merely 1,000 gold galons!
Having lived in the wizarding world for ten years, Ivan is already well acquainted with the price levels in the wizarding world, including the exchange rates of Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts
"Just last year, the total value of the various materials you consumed was approximately 7,000 gold galleons. With such a massive consumption, do you really think your father is unaware?" Bokin Boke once again provided a detailed account.
However, even though the dosage of the elixir is limited, the price of the elixir remains extraordinarily high. Under normal circumstances, the price of the elixir reaches as high as 2000 gold galleons
Ron’s father, Arthur Weasley, works in the Department of Magical Law Enforcement under the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office, earning a monthly salary of only 50 Galleons
"Alright, alright, Xiao Aiwen, I hope you will use this bottle of Fuling Agent at a critical moment." Bokin Boke pushed the Fuling Agent over again.
Although cerium is relatively rare, its price is not expensive, approximately 28 gold crowns per ounce, which means that the price of 1 gram of cerium is about 1 gold crown, still within an acceptable range
No problem! Bokin Bokke readily agreed, "Is there anything else you need?"
Even Professor Slughorn, who possesses the ability to brew Felix Felicis, has only consumed the potion twice: once at the age of 24 and once at the age of 57
Aiven sighed; he indeed wasted a great deal of materials last year. After all, alchemy can impoverish three generations, and a little fellow who is deeply engrossed in alchemy naturally incurs considerable expenses
The Fortune Elixir, also known as the Lucky Potion, is a concoction that can bring good fortune, and its effects are remarkably powerful. However, the process of creating the Fortune Elixir is highly complex, and failure to do so may result in severe consequences.
Since the issue is laid bare, some more complex alchemical materials can naturally be obtained through Bojin Bo Ke
In summary, the price of a bottle of Felix Felicis has reached 2000 Galleons, which is an exorbitant price beyond imagination. Families like the Weasleys, or ordinary wizards, can hardly conceive of purchasing a bottle of Felix Felicis
Is it really as much as 7,000 gold galons? Aiven thought it was only one or two thousand gold galons at most
This illustrates the difficulty in the preparation of the talisman and the consequences of excessive consumption
"Haha, Xia Aiwen, do you really think that Barlow and Joanna are unaware?" Bokin Bokmo said inexplicably, then continued, "Over the years, how much turquoise have you wasted? And the precious emeralds from the Muggle world? Even jade?"
The black dragon scales of the Heshidili Islands present a challenging issue
Poor Ron, due to the exorbitant cost of wands, can only use the wand that belonged to his second brother Charlie, which Ron had previously used
Secondly, the use of Fuling agents is also subject to strict limitations. Once taken in excess, it can lead to dizziness in mild cases, while severe cases may result in reckless behavior and even arrogance.
Ordinary wizards who have merely passed the O.W.L.s examination can be easily defeated by the black dragons of the Heshidili Islands, which can single-handedly take on ten of them and send a group of wizards flying.
In the wizarding world of Britain, a considerable number of young wizards always fantasize about raising a dragon-like creature and then riding it to Hogwarts
Additionally, in the village of Hogsmeade, a Butterbeer at the Three Broomsticks is only 2 Sickles per cup, what an affordable price
I am conducting an experiment based on the research and development of potionology. Currently, it is still in the exploratory stage, so the consumption has been a bit high. By the way, Uncle Bokin, I need some Life Vines; these things grow in Africa, and I am not fond of that place!
The gift from Bojin Bo Ke is indeed a blessing agent
Bo Jin · Bo Ke waved his hand and said, "By the way, Xiao Aiwen, why do you always need turquoise, emeralds, and green jade?"
"Please rest assured, Uncle Bokin, I only need the black dragon scales," Aiven assured, as he prepared to conduct another alchemical experiment with these materials, hoping for success this time.
Molly Weasley is a full-time housewife, and with seven children, the family relies solely on Arthur Weasley's monthly salary, which has resulted in the Weasley family's poverty
Furthermore, the prize for the Triumvirate Championship is only 1,000 gold galons. It is important to note that the rules of the Triumvirate Championship do not take life and death into consideration
