Hogwarts' Golden Glory

As its name suggests, Kane's rapid growth and increasing strength over the years are all thanks to this stimulant.

After all, in the real world, no matter how hard a child trains, without external assistance, it is impossible for them to defeat an adult on their own. The difference in strength and size between the two is simply too great.

Kane has been using this potion to strengthen his body for many years, and thankfully, this strengthening has not had any negative impact on his growth, development, or health. On the contrary, it has given him superhuman strength.

If this miraculous potion were to enter the Muggle market, it would cause a huge uproar, and those who desperately need to improve their physical condition would flock to it and fight over it like crazy.

It could even set off a trend in society—without using this drug, an individual's physical strength and power would lag far behind those of the user.

At that time, the vast majority of people will try every means to obtain stimulants.

Of course, all of this is just hypothetical. Leaving aside whether this potion will even have a chance to enter the Muggle market, its exorbitant price alone is enough to deter the vast majority of people.

First, to achieve significant results, long-term use is necessary;

Secondly, the dosage for this one application alone will cost thousands of gallons, which is no small sum.

Therefore, Kane did not continue to develop and market this medicine, but chose to use it only for himself.

However, Kane has not been idle or wasting his time over the years. He has made full use of his intelligence and actively engaged in the business field, achieving fruitful results.

For example, through the development of a unique shampoo formula, his "Malfoy Shampoo" has successfully captured 80% of the market share, while the remaining 20% ​​is firmly held by Porter's shampoo, which enjoys extremely high user loyalty.

The Porter family's shampoo claims to have miraculous effects—no matter how messy or bad your hair is, just two drops will make it instantly tame and manageable.

It was through this product that Harry, at a young age, inherited a huge fortune that was the envy of many.

Therefore, when Kane met Harry last time, although he made friends with him without making a sound, he was actually a little uneasy deep down.

After all, their own "Malfoy Shampoo" was a huge success in the market, capturing a large share of the market, which caused the Potters' shampoo business to plummet and their family income to decrease sharply. All of this was inextricably linked to them.

Kane's Malfoy shampoo cleverly exploited the shortcomings of the competitor's product.

While Porter's shampoo can ensure smooth hair, it doesn't perform well in terms of scent.

Malfoy shampoo is different. It not only has basic functions such as cleaning, removing oil, dandruff, relieving itching, and deep moisturizing, but also helps customers dye their hair according to their own preferences. In addition, it has a variety of charming fragrances to choose from. It can be said that it completely surpasses Porter's shampoo in every aspect.

This is why Malfoy shampoo was able to quickly capture a large share of the market and become the first choice for many consumers in a short period of time.

As soon as the Malfoy shampoo was successfully developed, Kane couldn't wait to send the entire product line and detailed formula to his godfather Snape.

Of course, his move was not merely to improve the Godfather's hair condition; more importantly, he wanted to consult this potion master to see if there were any areas in the formula that could be further optimized and improved.

Snape, as expected of a top expert in potions, wrote down detailed suggestions for improvement the day after receiving the items.

One of the key suggestions was to replace one of the expensive ingredients in the recipe with mimosa flowers.

The mimosa flower is a plant that loves warm, humid, and sunny environments. It emits a faint fragrance with a light taste and has a calming effect. It is often used to make potions to treat symptoms such as neurasthenia and insomnia.

Kane followed his godfather's advice and made the changes. To his surprise, the improved shampoo had a wonderful calming effect, which undoubtedly made the product more competitive.

Finally, this shampoo alone gave Kane substantial capital, and Kane's actions also involved many other industries, such as flying brooms, potions, and loans.

Without a doubt, Kane could easily create another noble family at this moment!

"Young master, Master Malfoy wants to speak with you!"

Dobby appeared before Kane, cautiously observing the young master before him. He increasingly felt that the young master seemed to have become even more powerful and awe-inspiring.

“Okay, I’ll be right there,” Kane replied calmly.

Lucius Malfoy is much busier now than he was in the original story.

In the original story, he merely spent his days dealing with the Ministry of Magic and managing relationships with various parties, but now, his schedule is almost completely filled with meetings and affairs.

The last time he accompanied Draco and Kane to Diagon Alley, he had to squeeze out a little time from his busy schedule.

That's why Draco was severely reprimanded for sleeping in last time.

After shopping, Lucius rushed off to deal with other urgent matters, his schedule extremely tight.

Narcissa also became busy, as the family business became increasingly complicated, and she had to get involved in it, helping to handle many matters.

In this way, Draco became the most comfortable one.

With his parents busy with their business and his brother focused on training and improving himself, he was often the only one left on Malfoy Estate.

Draco spent his days either fiddling with the novel magical gadgets Kane made or happily riding his flying broomstick across the manor, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Kane steadily returned to the dining room on the first floor of the castle, where he saw Lucius pacing back and forth anxiously.

"Kane," Lucius said urgently, clutching a piece of parchment that detailed Kane's initial ideas and plans for the loan business. "Tell Father quickly how this loan business should actually operate!"

Kane tilted his head slightly, a hint of emotion in his eyes. The wizarding world has a sparse population and its economic development lags far behind that of the Muggle world. Financial services like loans, which are well-established in Muggle societies, are practically nonexistent here.

The goblins of Gringotts are greedy and always want to take the Galleons from your vault for themselves, so they certainly wouldn't consider a loan business.

As for other financial institutions, Kane had looked into it. There was a financial services company called "Gallo Loans," but its interest rate was as high as 239.45%, which was not a legitimate lending business at all! In addition, this company would not be established for another three years!

Wizards also have their own high-end products, such as flying brooms, which shows that this market is currently a blue ocean!

"Our first task is to cooperate with all parties." Kane narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he could already see the blueprint for the future.

"Companies like Nimbus Broom Company, Sweeping Company, and Comet Company, which hold a significant share of the flying broom market, have a large customer base of young wizards who are eager for newly released magical items but often hesitate due to a lack of funds. If we could partner with these companies to provide loan support to those customers with limited funds, enabling them to own their desired magical items sooner, not only would sales of magical items increase dramatically, but we could also reap substantial profits."

"Furthermore, magical creature breeding is a crucial area. Breeding magical creatures is extremely costly, from purchasing cubs to ensuring a continuous supply of feed, and the construction and maintenance of breeding facilities—all requiring substantial capital investment. Breeders often face cash flow problems, and our loan service can be their lifeline, helping them expand their breeding scale or weather difficult times. In this way, we can both earn stable interest income and occupy an important link in the magical creature industry chain."

"Furthermore, cooperation with Gringotts is crucial. Although the goblins of Gringotts are cunning, suspicious, and not easily trusted, they are undeniably the financial heart of the Wizarding World, controlling vast amounts of wealth and abundant resources. We can try to negotiate with them, cleverly utilizing their extensive channels and vast customer base to vigorously promote our lending business. For example, we can provide loan services to customers who have assets in Gringotts but urgently need more funds. This will not infringe on the goblins' core interests, while leveraging their platform to rapidly expand our business. Moreover, through information sharing with Gringotts, we can accurately assess borrowers' repayment ability, effectively reducing loan risk."

"Of course, the most crucial point is to obtain a legal license from the Ministry of Magic to conduct lending business and to strive for as many policy incentives and support as possible. For those customers who maliciously default on loans and refuse to repay, if necessary, we can use the power of the Ministry of Magic to imprison them in Azkaban. Only in this way can we ensure that our lending business operates on a sound track and minimize the risk of loss."

Kane paused, then looked at Lucius with a firm gaze, a confident smile playing on his lips. "Father, I believe this is a piece of cake for you. With your prestige and influence in the magical world, you'll certainly handle these matters perfectly."

Lucius nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with admiration and respect for Kane.

He sighed inwardly, thinking that his son was exceptionally intelligent, but the planning was complicated and tedious, which was really exhausting, even more so than when he followed Voldemort as a Death Eater.
