Chapter 1823 "Sea Monster" (10)
Every day when they go to Hogsmeade, the students of Hogwarts will inevitably go to Duke of Honey, which is filled with all kinds of novelty candies.
Since the cooperation between Astonia and the Duke of Honey, the number of candies in Malfoy's house has increased again, and unlike Nacissa's own candies, Astonia's candies are more professional, so much so that Lucius Malfoy's pockets Two **** lollipops are inevitable.
He gave one of the lollipops to Severus, and the other one by himself. While eating the candy, he looked at the cold water. It is hard to imagine that the season now is summer.
"Guess what." Lucius said as if inspired, "If the formula is changed, the product will not sell well."
"What?" Severus asked in a bad mood.
"Processed food company." Lucius said indifferently. "Customers are fickle. Today they worry about too much sugar and tomorrow they worry about fat. After shopping around, they still buy whatever they want, and they can eat whatever they want. I would never buy food that tastes bad."
After finishing, Lucius put the lollipop in his mouth.
"Are you telling me about the Danone acquisition now?" Severus asked incredulously.
"Food companies provide low-sugar, low-fat, and low-calorie foods. The customers themselves did not choose. Can the food company be blamed? I understand those people. They will not give up huge benefits and change themselves in order to ease the emotions of their customers. Since they are unwilling to change the formula of high-selling products, why should we change it?"
Severus did not answer, he put the **** lollipop in his mouth.
"If people are worried about obesity, then develop weight-loss drugs. Do you know what the best medicine is now?"
Severus still didn't want to talk to him.
"The most important thing is to beat the competition. I think you have heard that the Honey Duke and the Joko Joke shop sued the Weasley Trick Shop for a monopoly." Lucius slowly said, "More fun and more delicious products will be available. Only when someone buys it can make money. Health is a matter for the hospital. Last year, an executive from a food company resigned and switched to promoting healthy food. This is also the selling point of Danone's products. It is like boxing. One party must fall."
"How do you know that it was not the fat man who fell first?" Severus smiled sarcastically.
"I remember that 30 years ago, all Americans suddenly started to drink skimmed milk. Do you know how many dairy farmers will lose their interests?" Lucius said. "In some large-scale publicity and public marketing, a single dairy farmer It is unbearable, but Congress organized all the dairy farmers in the country and established a dairy company, which extracts 1% of the total income of dairy farmers every year for school and cheese promotion, and management of the image of the dairy industry and key issues. They paid for it. 250,000 doctors and diet experts support their projects, as well as professional football teams."
"Pro athlete dare to eat such high-calorie food?" Severus asked.
"Milk products are not just milk and cheese. If the milk is layered, the lightest is butter, the heaviest is cheese, and the middle is whey. The first Americans only liked butter and cheese, and whey had to be dumped. Yes, now whey has become a protein powder, which can be sold to athletes and fitness people."
"when will you……"
"When I heard about this acquisition, I kept thinking, do you think we still need protein powder?" Lucius asked Severus.
"Your son needs him. He is as thin as a girl." Severus said angrily, putting the lollipop into his mouth.
"When a person is fat and has no money, he is a loser. I heard that many young people in the United States still suffer from gout, and even the conscription is affected." Lucius shook his head, "I really don't understand. How do girls now like Draco like that."
"He is your son." Severus reminded.
"It's really an advantage to look good. If the Dark Lord is not so handsome, I don't think Bella would be so crazy to him." Lucius said flatly, "I thought I was a bully rather than being the target of being bullied. Draco will live better on that side, but the adult world still affects him, especially when he was in sixth grade. Thank you, Severus."
"You don't need to say this." Severus said embarrassingly.
"I hope you didn't think I was forcing you." Lucius said, "but you really have to think about the Muggle problem."
"The boy inside helped me, I can't leave him." Severus said.
"I was able to apparate directly just now." Lucius smirked, "but look at us, it turns out that we eat candy like members of the Order of the Phoenix."
"Because I mentioned the Phoenix just now?" Severus asked.
"It's a very rare magical animal. You can only see it once in a thousand years." Lucius said in a daze, "I didn't expect Dumbledore to have a phoenix as a pet."
Severus seemed to think of something.
"Tacitus wrote in his book that a phoenix appeared in Egypt." Severus said after a moment, "but that may not be a real phoenix, because the little phoenix buried the old phoenix."
Lucius froze for a moment, "A bird? How did it do it?"
"The Phoenix is immortal." Severus reminded.
"I heard that the phoenix appeared when dealing with the basilisk, why doesn't it appear now?"
"Compared to the phoenix, we can find the golden-winged bird, it is the natural enemy of the Naga..."
"What?" Lucius stared at Severus who suddenly realized.
"We can use fire, just like dealing with the devil net!" Severus said.
"I suggest you better not do that. You don't know what the consequences will be. Maybe the cave will collapse. This means total war."
Severus looked unhappy.
"You can think slowly, I think that kid won't die for a while." Lucius stared at the small room and said, "And you don't know what the liquid is for, in case he breaks it down."
Severus was silent.
"Speaking of stratification, I remembered it." Lucius said slowly. "In the Middle Ages, they were called self-employed farmers. Now they are called the middle class. They are an important part of the tax base. If the middle class reduces the tax base. It will be corrupted. Not only will it not be able to collect taxes, but society will also become unstable. What do you think corresponds to the middle class? Butter, cheese or whey?"
MyheartispiercedbyCupid, the arrow of Eros hits my heart,
Idisdainallglitteringgold, what are gold and silver treasures,
Thereisnothingcanconsoleme, nothing can comfort me,
Butmyjollysailorbold. Except for my brave and happy sailor,
Comeallyouprettyfairmaids, come on beautiful girls,
Whoeveryoumaybe, no matter who you are,
Wholoveajollysailorbold, as long as you love brave and happy sailors.
Suddenly a woman's singing sounded in the dark, dark pit, and the two immediately stopped talking.
"I didn't expect that one day, I hate Paris." Lucius muttered, pulling out his wand and preparing to fight. "The story of the phoenix you just said, which city is that?"
"Heliopolis, Hebrew calls it Weng." Severus said, "No matter how other places change, the topography of the land is still the same as described in the Bible thousands of years ago."
"I made you godfather because of tradition." Lucius said.
"I know." Severus said, "Attention, it's coming!"
As soon as his voice fell, ripples appeared on the water surface of the tunnel, as if a huge monster was moving towards this side.
