"The meat is fresh and tender and has very little toxicity."
"It's very fresh. I think it tastes better when fried."
"It tastes good when grilled with cheese, but it's just too little."
At the dining table on the first day of school, the professors were enthusiastically discussing matters related to getting up in the morning to conduct magic research. They had different opinions, but they all spoke highly of the experimental materials.
This overflowing enthusiasm made Professor McGonagall, who was sitting at the front of the dining table, a little less serious, and attracted a group of children who had not slept well.
"The professors must be discussing the Triwizard Tournament, right?"
At the Gryffindor table, Ron asked Harry while yawning.
He had a dream one night of attaining the status of a warrior.
"That's right. After all, it's such a grand competition."
Harry responded with a yawn - he too had been dreaming all night.
"Suddenly the start of school doesn't seem that important anymore. By the way, what classes are there in the morning?"
"Herbology and Care of Magical Creatures class, I don't know what Hagrid has come up with - people are saying that the heavy rain last night was caused by the thunderbirds that Hagrid raised."
"Probably, after all..."
Harry smiled, and so did Ron and Hermione. Everyone still remembered their encounter with the dragon in their first year.
"It's a shame you guys can laugh out loud."
Opposite Harry, one of his good friends and the team's chaser Katie Bell sighed, "It's the first day of school. This is my OWLs year."
These words caused the student eternal pain, and Harry didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.
But Katie didn't really need his comfort. She shook her long hair and said, "What else can you do? Just get over it... I'm almost jealous of the twin brothers now. They actually passed OWLs with such high scores." take an exam."
She is a familiar person herself, "Who can not be jealous? You will know when your OWLs are held next year. Miss Granger is the only one who can get that score easily. They actually got all the certificates." …"
Harry had heard Ron write about this before, but this was the first time he understood how powerful it was.
"They kept saying that it was because Professor William forced me to do a lot of exercises, and they even gave me a special note - that thing looks scary, how did they survive it..."
"Hey, by the way, I heard that you and Qiu from Ravenclaw, huh?"
Harry was still immersed in the horror of the OWls exam when he was suddenly attacked. He was stunned and blushed.
"Aha, it turns out it's true..."
Katie smiled narrowly, "Do you want me to share the twins' notes with you?"
"That's the product of Professor William. It's a guarantee for passing the OWLs exam... It seems that Professor William is going to receive the Order of Merlin..."
Seeing Harry's restrained expression, the Seeker smiled extremely happily.
"Tailor-made review notes... It would be great if I could get them..."
She sighed, as if she wanted to say something, but she held it back, "See you later Harry, there are no games this year, I'm afraid I have to concentrate on reviewing... Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration is in the first quarter, I don't want to If you dare to be late, let's go!"
She waved her hand cheerfully, and then hurriedly left the table with a few friends.
"What did she want to say?"
Harry looked at Ron confused, and then realized that Ron was also confused.
"It's time for class," Hermione replied angrily, "The first period is Herbology. The greenhouse is quite far from here."
——
"I don't have any classes today, what should I do?"
"Tidying up the big office...I don't want to do that work..."
"Publish the test paper? It's not needed for the time being... It's just a temporary assessment for underage wizards. It's not necessary to give it out so quickly."
"Boiling the elixir... Today's weather is bad and not suitable, and many things cannot be confirmed before the other two schools come to visit. If there is an emergency, you can't be absent, right?"
"If it takes half a year to cook, the best time to boil it should be in autumn. Wait a minute, the herbs are not that good these days. If it is cooked because of the herbs, it is really not worth it."
Familiar potions can naturally be freely modified according to the properties of herbs and magic potions, but for something that has yet to be mastered, such as the Felixir, William felt that he could not be too careful.
"Go to the greenhouse first and order a batch of herbs. I don't know if Adams and the others are in class."
Not only did the elixir need to be boiled, but William was also interested in several other interesting potions. He went to see the quality of the herbs and then decided on the boiling time - this was considered top-notch treatment for a pharmacist.
Having made up his mind, William quickly finished his meal and started walking towards the greenhouse.
'Adams' words, in...'
"Professor William!"
"Ah, Professor Sprout."
William said hello politely and came to someone's greenhouse to look at the herbs, but the real owner saw him.
Professor Sprout is the Head of House Hufflepuff, a very nice lady.
"Come to see the herbs?"
"Yes, I got some interesting magic potion recipes from Uganda. I want to reproduce them according to the properties of common herbal medicines here in the UK to see if there are any suitable ones."
It is impossible to admit the blessing elixir unless it is prepared - otherwise it will probably be told as a joke for more than half a year.
"We got a lot of rare things except herbal seeds, Professor William." Professor Sprout nodded, "The seeds of those herbal medicines are in very good condition. I am trying to see if I can make them reproduce more this year. One year."
Is this appropriate to say in front of students...
The herbs Professor Sprout mentioned are a specialty of Uganda. Although they can grow here at Hogwarts, the seeds they produce cannot grow again, so they can basically only bring some seeds every year, but The problem comes again, that thing is theoretically prohibited...
In order to make it less illegal, William went through two or three levels of procedures and spent a lot of Galleons to bring it back as a legal gadget, but even so, it was not that legal...
'You can't apply what I said at that time, I have a friend...'
'I have no intention of teaching students into Azkaban...'
"It helped a lot. The herbal seeds we obtained in previous years were not treated in such a professional way. No matter how we tried to make up for it, the growth was still poor."
Professor Sprout was still full of praises, and it took him a long time to understand William's eyes and realize the problem with the herb itself.
"There is a class in the greenhouse here. Please help me look at the Barbo tubers, Professor William."
She turned stiffly, as if this would solve the problem.
There was nothing he could do about it. This professor had a clear distinction between love and hate, but his personality was not so straightforward. William had discovered this before when Professor Lockhart was here - this professor was a bit of a good guy, and Professor Lockhart was not willing to embarrass him in public. .
"Professor William is very good at herbal medicine, and he also has a very high level in potions."
William liked this very much, but Professor Sprout, why are your eyes evasive when you speak, and you have one hand behind your back?
