Chapter 86 Derivatives: Youthful Facial Soap

Making potions is not as troublesome as making wands.

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

So the information given this time about "Youth Face Soap" almost clearly states all the formulas and production steps.

After Lin Xia knew the steps, she understood why the Zhiming Compass gave the comment of "accumulating knowledge and making a breakthrough, learning by analogy".

The early steps of making the Youth Face Soap are almost exactly the same as the production of the new scabies potion!

Only the fourth and fifth steps have changed, and the added materials are different, but these materials have been tested in the previous research of the new scabies potion.

So the Youth Face Soap can be said to be an accessory developed by the way when studying the scabies potion.

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

Lin Xia made a plate of Youth Face Soap that night, but did not tell Draco immediately. The next day, she went to Sprout's Medicine Garden to help as usual, and went to Hagrid's hut to observe the tiger in the afternoon.

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

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

In the laboratory, Draco looked at her in shock: "You said that after reading my report, you had a new idea and developed a youth face soap. This soap can be used to clean facial oil and eliminate acne?"

Lin Xia nodded calmly and added: "It's not a new idea. I analyzed it based on your data report. I had a flash of inspiration and created another thing. You can think of it as a derivative product when studying scabies medicine."

Draco quickly shook his head: "Maybe the production steps are very similar, but this is not a derivative product. The effects of the two are completely different. The face soap you developed will definitely be more popular than the scabies potion."

Lin Xia didn't intend to continue arguing with him. It was nothing more than mutual praise.

She said, "So I said, I will get a lot. You should write your paper on scabies potion well."

Draco didn't know what he was thinking of. His eyes turned and he said excitedly, "I will write the paper with you. Come on, come with me to find Professor Snape."

Lin Xia glanced at him and said, "No, I have already agreed with Dean Sprout that when I really research something, I will tell her as soon as possible. I plan to let her be my thesis advisor."

Although Professor Sprout is not good at making potions, she is an excellent herbal master. To be able to be the dean of Hufflepuff, her strength is definitely two brushes.

She maintains a good supply relationship with many potion makers. Some potion makers will write to Professor Sprout specifically to ask about the ingredients when they are researching new potions.

And it just so happens that what Lin Xia needs least is potion guidance, and what she needs most is connections.

Regarding the testing of "Youth Face Washing Soap", Draco is 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 dragged Lin Xia to find Dean Sprout.

The dean still stayed in the flower shed to plant flowers and plants on Sundays. She liked to turn on WWN radio to listen to the music of the Weird Sisters. That was her relaxing and healing time.

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

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

Draco couldn't wait to say, "Dean, it's not about work-study. Lin Xia has developed a youthful face soap and wants you to be her mentor!"

"Youthful face soap?" Dean Sprout looked a little strange, "Isn't Lin Xia developing potions?"

Lin Xia said at this time: "Professor, this thing is a derivative product that I came up with when I was researching potions."

Dean Sprout understood, shrugged his shoulders, hummed a few words with the music, and then said: "Why didn't I research a few bottles of potion derivatives while researching herbs?"

Lin Xia smiled lightly.

...

When Lin Xia and Draco walked out of Dean Sprout's office, it was already evening.

Draco was really envious and jealous.

Compared to Professor Snape's requirements, Dean Sprout's requirements were as harmonious as spring breeze.

After she used the magic spell to test that the youth face 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 write only three reports.

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

Dean Sprout said: "This type of face soap involves beauty. Compared with a bunch of lengthy data report analysis, people are more concerned about its efficacy, so a lot of test reports are needed later.

But you don't have to worry about this. I have other people who can help with the test. I will read the report one step earlier than you. If there is a case of harm in the report, I will not approve your face soap invention."

The reason why Lin Xia was not allowed to write so much data analysis is that the profit of beauty products is very large.

She was worried that the data published by Lin Xia was too detailed and would be cracked by other companies, and they would launch similar effects to fight a price war.

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!"

"The first-year wizard was not allowed to play Quidditch in school, so he was named Seeker!"

"Unprecedentedly, Hogwarts has never had a Seeker for a 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 do a few things with concentration, and 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 second graders."

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 spend time in the laboratory writing papers, 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 possible. 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 the 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 sobering agent, swelling potion is actually not more difficult, and is not much different from sobering agent, 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 whenever Harry faltered and couldn't answer, there would be a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

It's not very harmful, it's very insulting.

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