Chapter 171: Destroy the wizard economy

This semester has been full of hope and fantasy for Harry.

There are so many people who are silently protecting themselves behind his back, even the annoying Professor Snape originally intended to pay for him with his life to go undercover by Voldemort's side.

Not to mention that his godfather, Sirius Black, has been rehabilitated by the Ministry of Magic, and he has invited himself to live in Black's old mansion.

So that he is no longer a loner.

But when Harry told Dumbledore the news, Dumbledore stopped him.

Looking at the child in front of him, Dumbledore saw himself reflected in Harry's eyes.

Dumbledore said, "You'll have to stay at Aunt Penny's house for at least a month. ”

"But, Professor, I already have a new home!"

"Yes, Harry, I know. Sirius has been released from prison, and he is your godfather. But the protection that your mother left for you came from her love for you. Only by staying by the side of your blood relatives will you keep the spell on your body alive and thus protect you from Voldemort......"

Dumbledore had said a lot to Harry, all of Voldemort's own, and he didn't see disappointment fill Harry's eyes.

In Rorschach's classroom, Rorschach asked Harry, "That's what Dumbledore told you?" ”

Snape and Lupin listened equally to what Dumbledore had to say, but they didn't believe Dumbledore that much.

That day, in the secret passage under the beating willow, the people present made a countermeasure against Voldemort. Dumbledore was not told of these plans.

This was the first thing Sirius mentioned, as the unfilial son of the Black family, Sirius was used to seeing the twists and turns of intrigue.

When he learned that Dumbledore had not told Harry about the Potter mansion in Godric's Hollow, Dumbledore lost trust with Sirius.

As for Lupin, although he is a member of the Order of the Phoenix, his status as a werewolf has kept him out of the main members.

As a partner in the association, as long as the others were a little nicer to Lupin, he wouldn't be so miserable.

Snape was even simpler, and Harry had heard his mother ask Snape to take care of him. What else can be doubted about this affection?

Not to mention that the unbreakable oath has bound everyone together, and no one will break it.

Harry concealed the Horcrux from Dumbledore, while the others were preparing in private.

Harry nodded in acknowledgement, "Yes, Professor, what should I do next?" ”

Rorschach said, "Go back to Privet Road, stay for a month, and then go with Blake to the Potter house and get me the magic books I need......"

Harry said anxiously, "But Professor, I don't want to go back there, Aunt Petunia's family is not good to me!" ”

"I know, but Dumbledore is right in this matter, only the magic you love can protect you from Voldemort. When you go back, bring your Aunt Petunia something from the wizarding world, like a pet or a plant that doesn't kill people, and she'll be nice to you......"

Hearing this, Harry said suspiciously, "But Professor, Aunt Petunia hates all magic so much that she doesn't even want me to read at home. ”

Rorschach turned his head, glanced at Snape, who was pouting next to him, and said, "I'm going to ask Snape......

A stubborn Snape turned his head to the side, unwilling to talk about the past.

Since Snape was reluctant to speak, it was only Rorschach who spoke.

"When Lily showed off her magical talents, Penny was most excited, and she was eager to become a mage. But the blood is only shown in Lily's body. This difference made Petunia hate everything about magic.

But think about it this way, when Voldemort set off terror in Yingguo, who took you in baby? Isn't Penny, who knows about the wizarding world, afraid? A murderer who can appear at any time, and she actually raised you, not in which orphanage.

In addition, Penny, like Snape, only realized after Lily's death that she had lost a loved one. When she sees your blue-green eyes, which are exactly the same as Lily's, will she think of her sister......

It's very easy to deal with the Dursleys, Penny's dislike for you comes from her past, and Vernon because you're going to hurt the family, but for Penny's sake, he has to accept you. As for Dudley, he is the center of the family, just bring Dudley some candy from Duke Bee. If Dudley's attitude towards you changes, the other two will change as well.

Besides, if the plan goes well, you'll only need to spend the last month at the Dursley......"

Hearing this, Harry looked at Snape on the side, he was trembling all over at the moment, muttering Lily's name in his mouth, and the moment he felt Harry's eyes, he also looked back.

Snape's eyes were first longing, then remorse, then disgust.

Harry understood Snape's eyes, and Aunt Petunia's mood.

Harry took a deep breath, collected his thoughts, and said, "I see, Professor Rorschach. ”

Rorschach nodded and said, "Very good, remember to transfer the assets of Gringotts first when you go back." Otherwise, when the plan started, the Potter family's funds would have been lost, and I wouldn't have paid for it. ”

Harry had heard this reminder many times, and he asked suspiciously, "Professor Rorschach, are you really going to rob Gringotts?" I heard that there is a fire dragon guarding Gringotts! ”

"Yes, a Ulank iron belly. But we are not robbing Gringotts, robbery is already a sunset industry, and it will be hunted by the Aurors, without a bit of technology. But that's not something you can know, think about what to bring for Penny......

Harry left with a stomach full of curiosity, and now only Lupin and Snape remained in the classroom.

Rorschach waved his hand and said, "Bring the map!" ”

Adam placed the map of Diagon Alley on the table, and Rorschach pointed to the map with his wand and said, "The entire Diagon Alley contains fourteen regular large shops except Gringotts, and there are only four large black shops on the side of Tumbledown Alley.

These eighteen shops constitute the main nodes of Yingguo's trading network. With the exception of the Ollivander Wand Store and the Lady Morkin Robe Store, which have serious patent barriers, the rest of the stores are inseparable from the secondary processing of magical beasts, plant products and extremely by-products. As long as we have a chance to impact the market, we can make Gringotts react. And before Gringotts reacts, the buried dark lightning will detonate, and the coinage power will be stripped from the goblins! ”

Gringotts Bank, the only wizarding bank in the wizarding world of Ying, is run by elves. In addition to storing money and keeping witches' valuables, banks can also exchange Muggle currency for magical currency. The elves would try to reinvest exchanged Muggle currency into the circulation of Muggle society.

The terrifying thing is that the coinage power of the wizarding world is controlled by the defeated creatures like goblins, and the economic lifeline of the wizarding world is controlled by a greedy creature, and it is a miracle that it has been able to develop steadily to this day.

Even after Voldemort's return in 1997, Voldemort took over the Gringotts Wizarding Bank at the same time as the Ministry of Magic. The operation of the bank was transferred to the Ministry of Magic.

Look, even the noseless Voldemort knows how to control the economic lifeline, but these wizards with noses don't have brains.

On his first day at Diagon Alley, Rorschach began planning for Gringotts.

Rorschach investigated the economic direction and rules of the money flow in the wizarding world, and even Gringotts' currency reserves had a definite figure.

The currency of the wizarding world is mainly gold galleons, one galleon is 17 silver sicos or 493 copper nats. Galleons are made of gold, but the gold content is minimal. After all, the exchange ratio between Galleon and British pound is 1:5.

As an economic institution and a unit of coinage, Gringotts had a monopoly on the economy, but there was no anchor in it.

Anyone who has gone to high school knows that money is just a general equivalent, it has no value in itself, it is only a credit embodiment of the state and the issuing agency.

And the currency must also have an equal amount of reserves as an anchor so that it does not cause any economic disaster.

In the past, the anchor of the dollar was gold, but later it became oil, which is why 'where there is oil, there is mold', and the magnesium country guarantees its currency status with a military system.

But what about the wizarding world? What is the anchor of the currency? No! Only the empty words of the goblins.

Even these goblins invest in the world of ordinary people with Muggle wizards' pounds, using bankers' tricks to intercept more wealth.

The barrier between the wizarding world and the Muggle world has become a channel for elves to make profits.

A fragile monetary system that only needs a small boost to bring it to its ground.

The first step of the investigation has been completed, and the next step is to put another foot on the gas pedal on the train that is about to derail!

Draco Malfoy walked into Gringotts with the Malfoys' face, which was no longer haughty.

The elf sitting on the high platform helped his monocle, leaned over to look at Draco and said, "Mr. Malfoy, what business are you here to handle this time?" It is worth mentioning that as the legal heirs of the Malfoy family, you will need to renew the Gringotts vault. Otherwise, we will not guarantee the safety of your assets in Gringotts......"

"I'm here for a loan!"

After saying this, Draco's whole body seemed to be drained of his energy.

What happened to the Malfoys was no longer news in the wizarding world, and Gringotts didn't expect to get to the point of taking out a loan so quickly.

However, as a pure-blood family with knighthood support, this is a good customer of Gringotts!

Led by the other elves, Draco was ushered into a meeting room and began to negotiate with the elves how he could lend enough money with the Malfoys' remaining assets.

An argument quickly erupted in the reception room, and Draco angrily rushed out the door.

As he walked, Draco scolded, "This is the best medicine field, there are more than 50,000 Galleons in it, and you want to buy it for the price of barren land!" Really shameless goblins! ”

Draco's rampage was seen by all the wizards in the hall.

The elf who had just picked up Draco raised his voice and said, "Mr. Malfoy, the loan is a two-way review transaction, and we're sorry we didn't reach a consensus today. But please pay for the use of the vault as soon as possible, the Malfoys are not at the point where they are in arrears......"

The goblins flip the greed for the broken family into a business negotiation, and then step on the reality that the Malfoy family is already lonely.

Draco looked at the elf, clenched his fists, and said hatefully, "I'm going to take everything out of the vault!" ”
