On the last day of the Christmas holiday, Ye Ting arrived alone at Gringotts in Diagon Alley early in the morning, and he wanted to exchange a large sum of dollars for gold gallons.

In Gringotts, the exchange ratio of gold gallons and pounds sterling is 1:5, and Ye Ting took out half a million US dollars to exchange for gallons, which means that he can exchange for almost eighty thousand gold gallons.

Faced with such a large transaction, the young goblin in front of the counter obviously could not be the master, he hurriedly called out a very old and old goblin, his face wrinkled like an orange peel that had been put for a long time, and his voice was sharp and astringent.

“I’ve never seen a deal this big since I came to Gringotts when I was younger.” Faced with the check for half a million dollars, the old goblin burst out with vitality that did not match his age, and his eyes were shining with money: “Are you sure you want to exchange all of them for gold gallons?” ”

“Of course.” Ye Ting handed over the check with some impatience.

When he took the check, the old goblin’s hand trembled uncontrollably, and at that moment, he even had the idea of getting the check and immediately apparitioning away.

Of course, he couldn’t really do this, because before he could get rid of the tracking and exchange the check, Ye Ting could invalidate the check with a single phone call.

Sometimes, Ye Ting would feel strange about the financial system of the wizarding world.

Although half a million dollars is a lot of money in the Muggle world, it is only a drop in the bucket for the real rich, but for wizards, this half a million dollars, that is, eighty thousand gold gallons, is equivalent to a lot of wealth.

The most Harry Potter’s parents left Harry was tens of thousands of gold gallons, but this is not counting the property owned by James Potter as the heir of the pure-blood family in the wizarding world, and the Potter family is quite rich in the pure-blood family.

That is to say, even the richest people in the wizarding world are put at the level of ordinary rich people in the Muggle world, and the population of the wizarding world is much lower than that of the Muggle world, so why has the economy of the wizarding world not collapsed for so many years?

As long as any Muggle rich kid becomes a wizard, and then takes out one or two hundred million pounds to exchange for gold gallons, and then spends them all, there will be serious inflation in the entire wizarding world – he even suspects that Gringotts can’t get so many gold gallons.

Of course, one or two hundred million pounds in 1991 was worth much more than one or two hundred million pounds twenty or three decades later.

However, as Muggle productivity continues to increase, even though Muggle’s currency has been depreciating, Muggle’s wealth is growing at a rate far faster than the wizarding world.

In another decade or two, there will be far more rich people in the Muggle world who can exchange one or two hundred million gold gallons in one go, and the wizarding world at that time is much more likely to have a financial crisis because of this.

Now the financial industry in the wizarding world is normal, the biggest reason is only concealment and closure – this is like the financial system at that time was relatively closed **, because ** funds can freely enter and exit foreign markets, but foreign funds can not freely enter **, so the international financial crisis has little impact on **.

After preciously putting the check away, the old goblin began to sell Gringotts’ vault to Ye Ting: “Dear sir, you have a large fortune, but you can’t really take all the eighty thousand gold gallons with you. I sincerely recommend Gringotts’ vaults, Gringotts offers you the safest and highest quality savings service, no one but you can take out a single nat from your vault, and our interest rate is higher than that of Muggle banks. The cheapest vault is only five hundred galleons, and if you are willing to pay ten thousand galleons, your vault will be protected to the highest standards – including a sphinx or fire dragon as a theft measure…”

The old goblin babbled a bunch of words, and it was hard to imagine that he was still dying and dying just now.

Ye Ting really couldn’t stand his steady stream of sales, he was very suspicious that if he didn’t shut up this guy again, this old man’s mouth might even come out of his mouth about financial services, fund fixed investment and the like, plus he really had a need to save, so he immediately agreed to spend ten thousand galleons to buy the most expensive vault, and now his money was lying in the deepest part of Gringotts with those oldest families in the wizarding world.

When leaving Gringotts, Ye Ting got a dragon skin pocket containing five thousand gold gallons, a key to the vault, a private seal, a check book from Gringotts, and a badge.

Cheque books and stamps are used for large purchases, while badges are a symbol of Gringotts’ esteemed customer status.

After arriving at Diagon Alley, Ye Ting was finally able to make a large purchase as he wished—he had been waiting for this day after the purchase before the start of school—he bought a crucible made of platinum and goblin silver (similar to the Mithril in The Lord of the Rings, the material used to make the Gryffindor Sword), foldable and self-stirring, a platinum balance and telescope, several sets of crystal test tubes, a set of marble wizarding chess, a large amount of various precious magical materials, and a large amount of expensive cat food.

Even with the Shrinking Charm, his backpack was still full.

Of course, he didn’t buy any more books.

First, Hogwarts certainly has a much larger collection of books than the “Lichen Bookstore”.

Second, Ye Ting felt that most of the books he could buy had the opportunity to be given to him as gifts by his fan group – as far as he knew, his fan group had a public book list, and all the books given to him by members of the fan group would be entered into the book list to avoid repeated gifts.

Thirdly, most of the books written by wizards seem fancy and random and lack of system and logic, and Ye Ting is currently doing a job in addition to studying, that is, systematically summarizing the knowledge of wizards through the method of papers in the Muggle community. The final result is probably a big book like the Oxford Encyclopedia or the Magic Academic Edition’s “Yongle Dian” and “Siku Quanshu”. With such works, he didn’t need to collect so many wizard academic books.

Finally, he went to Mrs. Morgin and ordered seven or eight costumes in the style of the Chaldean uniform, the Atlas courtyard uniform, the polar Chaldean uniform, and so on, and then the purchase was closed.

Sure enough, shopping is not a privilege for girls, in fact, as long as they have the opportunity, boys will enjoy the process.

He then rushed to King’s Cross Station and boarded the train to Hogwarts.

Of course, on the train, he coaxed the three girls who were angry because of the missed communication, and fortunately, the “souvenirs” he sent were more powerful – an amber necklace wrapped in a beetle, a pair of enamel earrings for Zhang Qiu, and a gorgeous Fabergé egg for Sister Penelope.

Girls are worthy of being dragons, creatures with a natural affection for shiny things, and such a gift easily gets their favor – the three girls have a good family, otherwise they dare not accept such a gift – plus Ye Ting wittily shifted the topic to the scenery of Russia and the collapse of the Soviet Union, successfully aroused their interest, which mixed this stubble.

After a pleasant train journey, they returned to Hogwarts.
