Chapter 122: Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf

However, this time Voldemort planted faster, so that as soon as their side began to blow up the thorns, the British wizarding world was calmed down here.

The Gringotts headquarters in England was naturally not disturbed too much.

After Gretel revealed the matter to Seni and the others according to his own guess, everyone thought thoughtfully.

What the leader said may not be a fantasy.

If that's the case, they might be able to play a game of chasing the tiger and the wolf.

Wizards fight goblins, which may cause a backlash.

However, if the goblins fight themselves, there should be no signs of war.

If this can still burn the wizard's body, Glitter doesn't have to think about anything else, just pull up the team and fight a war until either side is killed.

There is no need to think twice about how to unite all the wizards peacefully.

Fighting aggression and massacres is always the only way to unite everyone.

Glitter believes that the elves will not be so unwise, war means casualties, and as an immortal elf, he will definitely not be so reckless.

A few hundred years of life can survive generations of wizards.

Driving tigers and devouring wolves is easy to say, but it is much more difficult to operate in practice than imagined.

If there was a choice, Glitter felt that it was possible, and he would prefer to let Dawn face the English goblins in the future.

The elves in England, and even in Europe, discriminated against each other, but they got along for centuries.

Between each other, it still plays a bit of integration.

For example, the goblins of Gringotts in England, as long as they have a decent face, they will generally solve things within the rules.

This is the pride of the old aristocracy.

The goblins, who think they are more noble than wizards, naturally learn this pride in the same way.

The elves on the other side of the ocean are different.

The first people who came to that uncivilized land, whether they were Muggles or wizards, couldn't get along with it locally, so they crossed the ocean to fight for a new future.

The goblins are naturally the same, and the first ones they sent over were also people who were not very good within the goblin group.

The identity they play is the consumables to open up the market.

But who would have thought that the uncivilized land covered with gold could develop so rapidly, and the power in their hands became bigger and bigger, which also made their ambitions more and more inflated.

Not to mention anything else, all the wizards in the whole of England combined, there are only tens of thousands of people in the fullest.

But in the Americas, millions of wizards bring immeasurable water every day.

Gringotts in the Americas has a month's worth of business, and Gringotts in England has to do it for two to three years if it wants to achieve the same turnover.

But in fact, the goblins of Gringotts in England, with their status as headquarters, take more than half of the profits of Gringotts in the Americas every month.

It would have been fine if there was no ability to resist, but now England, and indeed the whole of Europe, is clearly sinking.

The goblins of the Americas, however, are thriving like the rising sun, which makes them how can they endure this kind of exploitation.

This is one of the reasons why Shuguang thinks that the plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf is feasible.

The goblins of the Americas, regardless of their identity, have long surpassed these old 'nobles' in Europe in terms of strength.

It's not that Gretel doesn't know that if he really succeeds in driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, he will have to face an even more difficult American goblin to deal with after the dawn.

But he had to do it again.

There are always several risks in life, and not everything can be taken in one step and three steps.

All along, Sugon's development has been smooth, and basically there have been no difficulties that are difficult to solve.

If it weren't for the fact that his research had stalled and he was in dire need of the goblins, he wouldn't have chosen to do it to the goblins now.

The oriental wisdom in his bones clearly told him that dormancy was not a bad thing, and he knew it very well.

But not now, even if they might raise tigers, they have to try to do it.

As Penelope said in his financial report.

This time, Gringotts was able to drag them for three hours, and next time it could be three days, three months.

As the only financial institution in the wizarding world with a monopoly position, they have a way of pinching wizards' necks.

Money bags, at some point, are more important than you think.

Even the Ministry of Magic had to rely on the financial system established by Gringotts to function.

No one could have imagined what would happen to the wizarding world if Gringotts were shut down.

Having crossed time into the magical world of civilized society, it has long been inseparable from the financial order.

In this world where civilization is gradually perfected, there is not much soil to sustain in the ancient barter.

Once out of the Golden Galleon financial system established by the elves, wizards could not find a fair rule for bartering.

Therefore, Dawn must muddy the waters of the entire goblin race, so that they have no time to take care of Dawn's actions.

However, the means in this must be controlled well, otherwise, once the mistake is made, driving the tiger and devouring the wolf will become a tiger for the trouble, and the tiger harm is greater than the wolf damage, and the future trouble is endless.

First of all, it is necessary to reach a good cooperative relationship with the goblins of the Americas.

Presumably, they must be very willing to see these European people who rely on their status to suppress them become water dogs.

"Seney, when the meeting is over, send me a copy of the information from the Americas Branch, and by the way, arrange a suitable identity for me, I will go to the Americas and meet this group of 'guys' on the lower branch."

……

After three days of preparation, Glitter took a leave of absence from Dumbledore and decided to set off for the Americas.

Gretel left school, and the happiest person was Snape, who had been thinking about this position for I don't know how many years.

The last time I was a professor in Defense Against the Dark Arts class, I was a substitute teacher for Remus Lupin, and I only had a few addictions.

This time he was so happy because Glitter took a long vacation, which meant that he would be able to roam the Hogwarts campus as a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor for a long time to come.

——

"Phew, bah, bah."

Glitter really didn't expect that the wizards would put the portkey in a desert area with no end in sight.

So much so that the others did not recover from the dizziness, and ate a large mouthful of sand in the wind.

"Damn, the portal had to settle down sooner."

Looking around and identifying the direction, Glitter put a phantom spell on himself, took out a magic broom, and flew up.

It's not that he doesn't want to move quickly through magic particles, it's just that his identity this time doesn't allow him to do such a high-profile thing.

And, after landing on the ground, he felt the sense of rejection in the land of America.

Magic particles weren't as close to him as they were in Europe.

"It seems that the magical environment here is much worse than in Europe."

The last time I was in the Americas was four years ago, when he was a first-year wizard with no ability to protect himself.

It wasn't until he left America that he digested what Voldemort had left on him and gained valuable self-preservation.

Revisiting the old place, even he didn't expect that in just four years, he would become a wizard who could be on an equal footing with Dumbledore.

If it weren't for Dawn's obscuration of his message, he would probably be on the Wizard card in Chocolate Frog by now.

As far as his current strength is concerned, even in ancient times, he is an up-and-coming existence in the crowd, and he can be called the seed of a legendary wizard.

In four years, the wizarding world has not changed much, but the Muggle world seems to change with each passing day, with a new look every day.

He landed next to a Muggle town.

Members of the Dawning Branch, in the garage of a private house on the edge of town, parked him one of the most commonly used Muggle cars in the Americas, an open-bucket pickup.

It was the house of the branch member, and it was this member who Gretel replaced, Garnell Rolls.

As for Garnell himself, he had gone to the Dawn headquarters in Moldova three days ago through the portkey.

It is said that it is a branch, but until now, Dawning has not established a stronghold in the Americas.

Dawn's hand can't be stretched that long, and being able to develop some like-minded companions is already the limit of what they can do.

When it really needs to carry out a mission in the Americas, they still need to send people from Europe, through the portkey, to come here to do things.

That's why Gretel needs to come in person.

The land of America is very deep.

Not to mention the Ministry of Magic of the Americas, which is the administrator, the Muggle governments in the Americas alone are not something that ordinary members of Dawn can deal with casually.

Because this time I was going to Washington, the capital of the Muggle government.

So Glitter decided to be cautious and use Muggle tactics to get there.

After all, what he came to do this time was not a legal thing, and the unfamiliar magic fluctuations could easily attract the attention of the authorities.

Pickup is good, along the intercontinental highway, it won't take long to get there.

……

Even if he was already standing in front of the Gringotts headquarters in the Americas, Gretel still couldn't imagine it.

The hearts of these goblins are really a little stronger, and the seat of Congress in Washington, D.C., is in the same block as Gringotts.

Even coming from the side of Congress, more than ten minutes is enough.

Gringotts in the Americas, unlike the headquarters in Diagon Alley, is noticeably more modern.

Complementing the surrounding buildings, it looks like it's clearly the same style.

However, the signboard at the door is formed in one vein.

In addition to the name of Gringotts for wizards, the division of the Americas is also specially marked in fairy script below.

Gretel also noticed that the milky plaster pillar at the doorway was nailed with a special nameplate that had been covered up with magic.

Judging from the finish on the nameplate, it should have been nailed for a long time, and the mottled marks of the years are very obvious.

Leprechaun International Bank, founded in the 16th century, is dedicated to serving all its customers.

A bright light flashed in Gretel's eyes, it seems that the goblins in the Americas do have their own plans.

They had even considered breaking away from the control of Gringotts in Europe a long time ago.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have hung such a sign hidden by magic at the door of the bank.

To be honest, if it weren't for Gretel's silver pupils, he wouldn't have noticed the magic fluctuations there at all.

For a moment, Gretel's heart was settled.

Pushing open the door of Gringotts' Americas branch, a fairy greeted him with a smile on his face.

With this professional service attitude, Grett felt that the group of goblins in Gringotts in England would be swept into the garbage heap sooner or later, just like the British wizarding world.

He still remembered the look in the goblins when he first stepped into Gringotts in Diagon Lane.

It's not like you're hosting a customer, it's more like you're looking at an item.

Leprechaun International Bank is different, no matter what their purpose is.

As for the attitude of the first meeting, Gretel had a much better impression of them.

LaVine Keys.

Tut-tut, Gretel sighed again and again.

It's no wonder that last month, the goblins at Gringotts in Diagon Lane teleported more than a dozen times in a row before the matter of Dawn was settled.

The anti-bones of the Gringotts goblins in the Americas have been so open and undisguised?

It was also at this time that Glitter understood why it took three hours to pay for Dawn when there were mountains of gold galleons in the vault of Gringotts in Diagon Lane.

Diagon Lane Gringotts pays for it and asking Gringotts of the Americas to pay for it are completely two different meanings.

So, that day they weren't dealing with the Dawn issue, but they were fighting for leadership between the two Gringotts.

If, the Gringotts in Diagon Lane did not receive the money from the Gringotts of the Americas, they cashed out the Dawn.

Gringotts in the Americas dared to further test the headquarters of Gringotts, and perhaps next time it would not just intercept the money of Dawn's business in the Americas.

If Gringotts in Diagon Lane gave in one more step, the Gringotts Americas branch on the surface, the actual Goblin International Bank, would dare to further encroach on the leadership of the headquarters.

Of course, Gringotts in Diagon Lane was keenly aware of this for the first time, and the fluctuations that Pai Ge felt must have been the actions of the old guys in the elf clan.

Only these people can rely on the residual power of their identity and seniority to suppress the group of rebellious consumables in the branch.

Raven Case, the name of the Gringotts goblins in Diagon Alley, can't help but arouse Gretel's imagination.

After all, when Gringotts goblins come up with names, they have always been pull rings, copper locks, and vaults......

Give them names that are closely related to their work.

The only exception in the entire Diagon Lane Gringotts is the one with whom Glitter once dealt with him, the Sherlock Grandet.

At that time, Glitter didn't care, but he collected a lot of information about the goblins later, and now he saw that in the Goblin International Bank, everyone's names are the same as wizards, with the first name and the last surname, so he realized the problem in the name.

The names of the goblins are not random, there are legends that their names are related to their heritage.

Names like Professor Flitwick and Filius Flitwick are usually only given by half-bloods.

Although they are goblins, their status within goblins is not as high as that of purebred goblins.

Positions such as managers can only be filled by purebred goblins with traditional goblin names.

This is also the reason why when Glitter was in his first year, Professor Flitwick did not advise him to take refuge in the Elven Lands.
