“...... Stupid! short-sighted and arrogant Muggles, have they all fallen under the Imperius curse?!"

Underneath Gringotts' Wizarding Bank, the busy Elf Investment Department was silent, and Leos, the Elf Elder who had temporarily taken over the entire department, smashed a small potted plant on the table with his cane, and a sharp roar echoed throughout the underground office area.

"Ukraine, the Soviets, what the hell are they trying to do......"

The old elven elder gasped and slammed his dry fist on the Russian-covered newspaper on the table.

"Embracing Freedom, Celebrating Democracy, Ukraine Declares Independence from the Soviet Union from Today"

In the huge office, Jason, the deputy head of the investment department who originally lived under Douglas, rubbed his hands, looked at the other goblins around him who were pretending to be deaf and dumb, hesitated, and whispered.

"Elder Leos, as you said before, the Soviet Union is a very different country from the United States and the United Kingdom, they have a very strong cohesive force, and the influence of foreign capital on them is very small - it can be regarded as one of the best financial investments. ”

"Heh, cohesion. The corners of Leos's mouth twitched, revealing an extremely ugly smile, "Any ship, if the captain and first mate at the helm insist on leading the ship to the reef, no matter how much the crew in it works together, it will only hasten its demise...... That's how the bunch of idiots in Ukraine is. ”

With the end of the referendum in Ukraine, the ruble exchange rate, which Gringotts managed to stabilize with great difficulty, once again fluctuated dramatically, falling by more than 5% in one fell swoop, which can be said to be a rather painful loss for the goblins who are struggling to maintain the capital chain - more importantly, this may be just the beginning.

It is expected that the ruble exchange rate will become more difficult in the next week.

Moreover, the premise is that there will be no other bad news in the future.

But at this point in time, the prophecy made by the former supervisor Douglas became clearer and clearer, like a sword of Damocles hanging above the heads of all the goblins, which could fall at any time.

Deputy Director Jason swallowed, took a deep breath and continued.

"Humans have always been so stupid and short-sighted, and it's not surprising that this happened...... It's just that according to the calculation models of previous analysts, even if that huge alliance really disintegrates, it won't cause much impact on Gringotts, don't you think so before?"

"Of course I do, but that doesn't erase the damage we've suffered!"

Leos glanced at the middle-aged goblin standing at the table, and a hint of gloom flashed on his old face, "Unless those Muggles are stupid enough to let other countries help them formulate economic strategies, their government will definitely take the initiative to intervene in the market and forcibly lock in the value of the ruble before the exchange rate collapses significantly." ”

"Damn human wizards! Despicable Hogwarts! If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have lost so much! As for Douglas, heh, that guy is too focused on local gains, and we want to bring down the group of American traitors who have taken over to wizards...... Do whatever it takes...... What we have is time ......"

The old goblin coughed a few times, a strange smile appeared on his face, and his mouth muttered, as if tasting the delicious taste after the victory, and his voice gradually became low and hoarse.

"When we drag them down, we can even do the other way around...... Hey ......"

Unless war breaks out, the currency of any powerful sovereign nation cannot be reduced to paper overnight, and this is the conclusion of long history - even if the Soviet Union ceased to exist, the armed forces and industry of those countries would still be alive and well, and under such strong guarantees, even a pig would not be able to collapse as a Muggle leader.

"Well, Douglas and his advisory board......"

"Of course, it will continue to be closed, and the news will still be passed on to them every day - I want these arrogant and stupid young people to know the wisdom of the elders and the plan to control the whole situation, so that they can see for themselves how the Council of Elders runs the millennium Gringotts. ”

Leos's cheeks twitched, a grim smile appeared, and he sat down behind his desk again.

"Continuing to eat in rubles, and then continuing to release good news, so that all the international travel money is pinched and starved to death outside the territory of the Soviet Union, we have a pioneer that no one can match - history has proven countless times that Gringotts will have the last laugh. Whether the opponent is a traitor from the Americas or Hogwarts...... Heh......"

Soon, the Goblin Investment Department continued to get busy.

On the record board of the underground office, below the exchange rate of the ruble against the dollar, a blood-red dividing point is drawn.

[13.5:1], which is a conversion line given by thousands of elf analysts at Gringotts that is absolutely impossible to break. According to a large number of model calculations, there is only one way to achieve this terrible ratio - war.

Moreover, it must also be a crushing overall victory that instantly crushes and captures all of the Soviet top brass.

......

“...... War may not break out, but disaster will come. ”

At Hogwarts Castle at night, the voice echoed in the Headmaster's office, as if to state the facts that had happened.

"Albus, you may know the human heart. Yet for politics, you still ...... Ignorant. ”

Grindelwald glanced at Dumbledore, who was a little distracted, thought for a moment, and explained softly.

"The USSR will inevitably collapse, their economy will inevitably collapse, and society will inevitably fall into a long period of chaos...... As things stand, it's almost inevitable, and it's only a matter of time before the child's prophecy comes true. ”

"Why, I don't understand ......"

Dumbledore shook his head and said pointedly, his blue eyes a little confused.

"Since most of what is happening in that land today is in line with people's expectations, and they are cheering and appreprehensibly, then it should be right - Gael, the justice of the minority is not justice, you should know that very well. Then I really don't understand where the disaster began. ”

"I'm sorry, but I can only answer half of this question. The other half, maybe only by asking the little one. ”

Grindelwald shrugged his shoulders, slowly picked up his handkerchief and wiped the cream from his mouth, and said slowly.

"It's actually quite simple, and it seems to me that there are at least two reasons. ”

"No matter how powerful an existence is, it must be within the scope of existence conditions, just like a giant who can't defeat a fishman in the water, and recklessly and blindly steps into an unfamiliar territory to fight, there is a high probability that he will die a miserable death. The Soviet Union won because of this point of the enemy, and now they are paying the price for it—democracy, free economy, free market, things that they don't even know much about a first-year Hogwarts student. ”

“...... Ahem, the latter example is not very convincing. Dumbledore coughed lightly, a little helpless.

"The second point is that there is no such thing in this world that can benefit the majority of people in a short period of time without harming the interests of others—and if it exists, it must be an illusion! Either the so-called majority is the perpetrator, or it is ...... They are the prey. ”

Ignoring Dumbledore's interruption, a cold glint flashed in Grindelwald's eyes.

Although he did not understand Elena's complex theories, based on his experience over the years, and his observations in the Soviet Union these days, Grindelwald was certain that the vast country was in a bad situation.

"But, back then, ......"

Dumbledore frowned, clearly not quite agreeing.

"Whether it's the saints who follow you, the wizards who stand against you, or the people who rebel against *** in the non-magical world, it's obviously not the same as you say......"
