Compared with other somewhat humble shops in Diagon Alley, Gringotts is undoubtedly a conspicuous presence here.

The white building has a shiny bronze door, and there are actually two goblins in scarlet and gold uniforms standing at the door.

With this appearance, it is worthy of being the only designated bank in the wizarding world.

However, the wizards' operations were also rather confusing, and they actually handed over the financial lifeline to foreigners for management.

Wayne remembered that goblins in history were dishonest, greedy and despicable. They had launched rebellions more than once in history and even coveted Gryffindor's sword.

More than a hundred years ago, he tried to use the power of ancient magic to cause trouble, but was stopped by a fifth-year transfer student at Hogwarts.

But it's not Wayne's turn to worry about these things.

When the sky falls, a tall man will hold it up. When he becomes a tall man in the future, if the goblin comes out to cause trouble again, he will be crushed to death with one finger.

After entering the first door, a second door appeared in front of Mag and Wayne, with a line of words engraved on it to warn those with ulterior motives.

Wayne ignored it without even looking at it, and entered the marble hall. There were about a hundred goblins sitting on high stools behind the counter. Some were weighing coins with copper scales, and some were inspecting gems and registering ledgers.

There are countless doors in the hall, leading to different places.

Mag took Wayne to the counter on the far right

"This is the new little wizard who enrolled this year and needs to be exchanged for gold galleons."

Mag's attitude towards goblins was not good, and he urged him impatiently. The goblin behind the counter didn't care and said without raising his head:

"Each little wizard has the right to exchange 70 galleons per year. The exchange rate is 1:5.75. How much do you want to exchange?"

"It’s just this little, enough for what?"Wayne frowned.

"It's actually enough. Mag whispered to him:"Except for the necessities you purchased, you can still have ten galleons of pocket money left every year.""

McGonagall thought that Wayne didn't understand the currency and purchasing power of the magical world, so he introduced it to him.

"One Galleon is equal to 17 Sickles and one Sickle is equal to 29 Nats."

Wine was not too surprised when he heard this outrageous prime number exchange rate.

This kind of nonsense has long been a tradition in the UK.

Before 1971, one pound was equal to 12 shillings and one shilling was equal to 20 pence.

I am not good at mathematics. People are often confused by this complicated exchange rate.

(ps: This is a second guess. Rowling has not said anything about exchange restrictions, but if there are no exchange restrictions, the financial system of the Wizarding World can definitely easily After being washed away, Hermione wouldn't wait until her birthday to buy a cat. With the dentist's conditions, it was impossible to treat Hermione badly.)

"Forget it, just seventy."Wayne stopped worrying. He took out eight fifty-pound bills from his wallet and put them on the tray, and took another five-pound change.

After the goblin took it away, he just looked at it and stuffed it into the cabinet roughly. Then he took out a small cloth bag and handed it out from the window.

Seeing Wayne put the money away, Mag said:"Okay, let's go buy wands and other supplies now."

"Um, Professor McGonagall, I know you are in a hurry, but don't be anxious yet."

Seeing that Wayne had no intention of leaving the counter, the goblin frowned:

"You have finished exchanging your shares for this year, what else can you do?"

"If you want to open a treasury, your assets are not enough. You can only apply for a treasury if it exceeds 500 Galleons."

Wayne took off his schoolbag and opened the zipper a little, revealing a trace of golden light.

"Are you sure you want to talk here?"

The goblin's eyes widened. Based on his eighty years and nine hundred and ninety-six years of experience in Gringotts, this charming luster must be gold! The original indifferent attitude instantly became enthusiastic. The goblin jumped out from the counter, nodded and bowed. Wayne and McGonagall entered the private room.

Bang, bang, bang!

Several pieces of gold bars were poured by Wayne on the table. The goblin's breathing became heavier, and even Professor McGonagall's eyes widened.

No wonder she felt that Wayne My schoolbag is a little heavy, but my feelings are all filled with gold!

Unlike Muggle currency, gold is a hard currency in the wizarding world.

Whether it is used to make galleons or as a material for various alchemy or potions, It is extremely valuable. Is n't Nicolas Flamel famous because the magic stone he refined can not only make people immortal, but also turn stones into gold?

Wayne also made two preparations. If pounds can be exchanged for Galleons without limit, he will He brought 20,000 pounds, which could be exchanged for four thousand galleons.

If that didn't work, he would just hit him with gold.

After some bargaining, the goblin bought Venn's gold bars for five thousand gold galleons.

So many gold galleons. It was impossible to take all of En away, so he opened a vault in Gringotts and saved all the 4,800 galleons.

Only two hundred and the seventy galleons just exchanged were left as pocket money.

Complete the transaction , the goblin's expression is a little not good.

"Mr. Lawrence, you are a natural financier and you may be able to work at Gringotts after graduation."

He originally wanted to take advantage of Wayne's ignorance of the market and make a huge profit.

But the little wizard is very shrewd, and with Mag's help, he almost didn't make any profit from this order.

"If there is a chance, I will come."Wayne was also smiling.

It's okay to work in Gringotts, but he wants to be the president!

It wasn't until he walked out of the gate of Gringotts that Professor McGonagall sighed:

"Bring the gold to Gringotts...Mr. Lawrence, you're the first little wizard I've ever met who did this."

"The family only has a little money, which is not worth mentioning."Ven said very modestly.

Not to mention the money obtained from the lottery system.

As an authentic nobleman of old London, the inheritance of the Lawrence family is an astronomical sum.

So far, 60% of the real estate in London They are all in the hands of the royal family and the nobility, and they can receive a lot of rent every year.

Although now, newspapers are spreading the so-called decline of the nobility, and in the democratic era, there are opportunities everywhere.

But the foundation of hundreds of years, how can it be so Easily surpassed by Ten Years of Han Chuang?

Oh, except Ding Zhen.

He didn’t even use Han Chuang.

Next, he went to buy arms...No, it's the wand.
