Chapter 5: The Senior Sister from Slytherin

"I do ......" Love tried to say something, but choked up, remembering his old mother he had never met, and it was likely that the problem was her.

In the eyes of the goblins, Love's proper performance is a manifestation of weakness after being exposed.

"What's going on?" Seeing that something seemed to be wrong on Love's side, Hagrid hurriedly walked over and asked with concern.

Hagrid's huge physique was a great deterrent, and the goblin didn't dare to say anything, just pushed the little notebook towards Hagrid.

"You can see it clearly at a glance, his name is not on the book, and I really can't change money for him." It laughed weirdly.

"Huh?" Hagrid's doubts rose in his heart, and he took the notebook from the goblin and looked at it with a frown.

[This year's list of new Muggle students:

Justin Finchrie

Hermione Jane Granger

……

Kevin Entwesle]

The list wasn't long, and Hagrid was pretty sure there wasn't Love's name on it.

"You're not a wizard from a Muggle family, so you're not eligible for redemption." The goblin shrugged his shoulders and said as he feigned regret.

"Probably my mother...... I haven't seen her since I was born. Love guessed the root of the problem: he was most likely a half-blood wizard, not a real hemp wizard.

"He hasn't seen his mother since he was born!" Hagrid wanted to make an effort, so he went to the counter, patted the table, and said loudly in dissatisfaction.

Hagrid's slap sent the entire counter shake, and the rubies on the scales next to him were shaken off and scattered on the table. This attracted the attention of countless goblins and wizards who came here to conduct business.

The goblin was startled, and then reacted: this is Gringotts, it's its home turf!

"Calm down! Otherwise, I'll have to 'invite' you out!" The goblin threatened unceremoniously.

Hagrid's goblin attitude made Hagrid angry, but just as he was about to have a seizure, Love tugged at the corner of his coat and signaled him not to make things irreparable.

"Since I can't exchange pounds for the currency of the wizarding world, can I exchange them for precious metals?" Professor McGonagall had mentioned in the previous "voice message" that Love had brought some precious metals, which led him to conclude that Gringotts had a business of exchanging precious metals for gold galleons.

The goblin behind the counter still has the ability to do business, and after hearing Love's decision to exchange precious metals for money, he immediately put on a smiling face: "Of course! Gringotts welcomes esteemed guests to exchange precious metals for gold galleons, and this exchange is unlimited. ”

"Good." Love nodded, took the pocket watch out of his pocket, and placed it on the counter.

"Oh?" The goblin became interested, first put on a pair of white gloves, then took out an eyepiece, and carefully observed the gold pocket watch.

"It's completely mechanically driven, which is kind of interesting...... The watch body is 14-carat yellow gold, also inlaid with sterling silver, and the dial is made of platinum with ruby decoration...... "When looking at the pocket watch, the fairy kept whispering to himself, obviously an expert in this area.

After reading it, it has a general judgment on the value of the pocket watch.

"Interesting Muggle gadgets, mechanically well-constructed, how much do you want to get it for?"

Love was stunned, how did he know the value of this watch in the wizarding world? So he asked rhetorically, "How much can you give?" ”

The demon carefully sudden: this little ghost really didn't realize the true value of this watch.

"10 Galleons, the material of the watch itself is not good, although the mechanical structure is very exquisite, but after all, it is an alchemical creation of Muggles, and there are too many shortcomings." The goblin offered a price that sounded very low.

"10 Galleons is a little too little, not even enough for him to buy the books and equipment he needs to study." When Hagrid heard the elf's offer, he immediately felt that the elf's offer was too low.

The goblin's eyes rolled: "New life...... Then I can make a little concession, who will make me kind? I won't make any money on this single order, how about 15 Galleons? Couldn't have been more! ”

"20 Galleons, I want this watch." Suddenly, a clear female voice came from the side, interrupting the conversation between Love and the goblin.

Goblin:?!

Who spoiled my good deeds?

Love also turned his head curiously to see who the troublemaker was, and then a red-haired girl wearing a wizard's hat came into his eyes. The girl wore a black female wizard's robe with white lace on the neckline. A pair of thin black stockings was worn over the exposed thighs under the skirt, and a pair of black satin high boots were worn on the feet.

"Fox Swift." Seeing Love looking at herself, the girl first reported her name, and then smiled at him: "I want to buy this pocket watch, is that okay?" ”

The goblins behind the counter were shocked: someone dared to cut off their own beard in Gringotts?

It cleared its throat and said dissatisfiedly, "Miss, didn't you notice that I was talking business with Mr. Moen?" Please don't bother us! ”

"I'm Love Moen, how much do you pay?" Love asked bluntly.

"20 Galleons."

"Deal." Love leaned in, took his pocket watch from the counter, and handed it to the girl named Foxie.

"Eh, wait a minute! We can actually talk about it! The leprechaun behind the counter jumped up from his stool as if he had been slashed.

It's a pity that Love has already completed the deal with Faulce.

He put away the money bag handed by the girl, pretended to look at the goblin innocently, and spread his hands: "I'm sorry, that watch has been sold." ”

"How can this be!" The goblin couldn't help but stomp his feet, "That watch, that watch - you get the watch back from her first, we can talk slowly!" ”

The fat to the mouth is gone, how can the goblin, who has always been greedy, maintain a peaceful mind? Even if that watch is recovered for thirty Galleons, it will be profitable!

Love shrugged his shoulders and left the hall, leaving the elf to his own remorse.

"Well done." Hagrid grinned and gave a thumbs up to Love, he had long been unhappy with these elves, and it was naturally very pleasant to have a chance to anger them. It's just that looking at the goblin's angry appearance, Love must still be at a loss.

As soon as the two of them walked out of Gringotts, they heard someone shouting from behind, "Hey! You wait! ”

Then the girl ran up behind Love, and shoved a small leather bag into his hand.

"What is this?"

"Your watch is worth at least 30 Galleons, and I won't take advantage of you, so count the difference I'll make up for you." Foxie folded her hands behind her back and winked at Love: "You're a freshman this year, aren't you?" ”

Love nodded.

"Then I'm your senior sister! Do you have a college in mind? ”

"Well, I haven't thought about it yet." Love doesn't have a specific idea of which college to go to.

"It's better to come to Slytherin, senior sister, I'll cover you~" Faulcy smiled slyly, like a little fox.

Hearing this, Hagrid, who was standing on the side, couldn't help it.
