At the workbench, Lucien held a quill pen and wrote fluently on the open magic notebook.

"The questionnaires were distributed faster than expected," Harry wrote with a sense of accomplishment, "Everyone seems quite curious about this 'survey,' and..."

"And there are vouchers too," Lucien added with a smile, writing down a line.

This was exactly the little strategy he had designed: each completed questionnaire came with a Seventh Workshop voucher, which could be used to offset the cost of goods.

The young wizards benefited, but the Galoncico they spent ultimately ended up in Lucien's pocket.

Of course, the key was to advance the loan process for the Emerald Tablet Fragment ".

Meanwhile, Lucien also had George and Fred leak some information in advance, giving them samples of potions with simple beauty effects, as well as previews of new products to be prepared for the upcoming Valentine's Day.

Vouchers stimulate purchasing desire, new product previews pique curiosity, and questionnaires collect young wizards' thoughts on Valentine's Day, all in preparation for the Fire Element Magic Rune loan...

This can be considered a win-win situation.

The pages were quickly filled with Lucien and Harry's back-and-forth handwriting.

Immediately, all the writing faded as if washed away, and the paper returned to blank, awaiting new writing.

However, the previous conversation history was not deleted; it could be retrieved with a simple magic command.

Drawing on the existing ideas and experiences of QQ and WeChat from his previous life, Lucien replicated many practical functions in this small notebook.

Of course, this first-generation product also had its limitations.

Each specially made "communication sheet" can only be bound to one fixed contact person.

To add new friends, you need to use a new address sheet.

Creating a multi-person chat group also requires a whole sheet of paper.

But what Lucien considered a "flaw" was actually Winky "advantage"!

Actually, aside from the cost of purchasing the notebooks themselves, the communication paper is where the real Galleon profits are made.

What surprised Lucien the most was that, according to the system's assessment, a single communication paper was considered an independent alchemical item!

The loan task for the Emerald Tablet Fragment requires selling 30,000 alchemical items or potions and earning a total of 150,000 Galleon.

If communication paper can be considered an alchemical tool, then the difficulty of reaching the sales target is undoubtedly greatly reduced.

As for sales of 150,000 Galleon, that would require high-end, high-priced products to support it, such as the "East Wind" Flying Broomstick...

Lucien still designed a deluxe, customized version of the communication laptop, with naturally improved functionality, but it was still more aimed at those Pure-blood who pursued prestige and a sense of superiority.

The pen paused for a moment, a thought flashed through his mind, and he murmured to himself:

"Perhaps... even the communication paper itself could be released in a 'deluxe customized version'?"

For example, using more exquisite materials, inlaying miniature family crests, or having a faster message refresh rate...

The target customers are still Pure-blood who value dignity and seek a sense of superiority.

The thought made Lucien raise an eyebrow, but wouldn't it seem too unscrupulous and unethical to dry the paper like that?

Well, let's prioritize completing the Emerald Tablet loan first. As for how to improve the product and benefit the Wizarding World, that's a matter for later.

Lucien quickly shook his head. Once this magical communication notebook officially debuts at the competition, its revolutionary features will undoubtedly cause a sensation.

The influence of the three major magic schools extends throughout Europe, and the eyes of the Wizarding World of various countries are now focused on them.

It is foreseeable that, as long as the product is amazing enough, it is likely to sweep across the wizarding society of Europe in a very short time.

And since the center of magic in the world is in Europe, the ensuing backlash will be even greater.

Lucien stared at the blank pages before him, as if he could see countless communication papers one day in the future connecting to form an unprecedented, close-knit, and real-time magical communication network.
