Chapter 641 Bank Reform

Tom and Minister Bones were in no hurry to leave. They still had more things to do, such as calming the wizard who was getting anxious.

"Don't panic, everyone, everyone will get the money!" Bones used a magnifying spell on himself and shouted loudly.

With the endorsement of the Minister of Magic, the wizards present felt a lot more at ease. They knew that the Ministry of Magic was on the same side as them. Even if Gringotts wanted to refuse their withdrawal, they had to ask the wands in their hands if they would agree. This

This is not a problem that can be solved by sending out a red rabbit horse and holding a free-fighting competition where the government and the people can enjoy it.

In the final analysis, it is because the Ministry of Magic's butt is not crooked, otherwise the wizards would have been impatient. Interestingly, in the original world line, the year Voldemort took charge of the Ministry of Magic was the first time since 1865 that wizards

The goblins took over Gringotts, but it didn't seem to cause any trouble. It was a pity that Harry and the others handed Gringotts back after they defeated Voldemort.

Because the matter was so important, many officials from the Ministry of Magic were present, including old Crouch, who was not a very good director. They met in a short time and made a decision after a small meeting: learn from it

Muggle banks allow arriving wizards to withdraw money based on their account numbers.

The wizards' emotions were well calmed. They were no longer anxious, but quietly took the numbers from the Ministry of Magic officials and lined up quietly outside Gringotts.

More and more wizards came after hearing the news, and the queue outside Gringotts gradually turned into a long queue with no tail, stretching from the entrance of Gringotts to the backyard of the Leaky Cauldron, the exit of Diagon Alley.

Where there are people, there are opportunities. Many vendors sensed the business opportunities in front of them, so various vendors appeared next to the wizards' queue. Some of them had satchels and some held baskets, selling various products to the wizards in line.

They grow snacks and drinks, and some even sell sleeping bags and tents to wizards.

This is completely understandable, because counting currency is not an easy task, and wizards who come late may have to wait for a day or even several days.

Looking at the orderly long queue, Bones also showed a heartfelt smile. There were so many things that happened today, which made her a little distracted. It would be great to solve one of them at this time.

When Minister Bones looked at the crowd with relief, Tom walked up to her and said to her: "Minister, this is actually a good opportunity, a good opportunity to bring Gringotts back under the jurisdiction of wizards."

Bones was intrigued by his words. She looked at Tom wearing a mask, wanting to hear what unique insights he had.

"Obviously, Gringotts' reputation has been ruined, and wizards are no longer willing to store money here, but the bank as an institution is irreplaceable..."

"You mean the Ministry of Magic took the opportunity to establish a bank? Indeed, the Ministry of Magic has this prestige..." Bones was inspired after hearing what Tom said.

Looking at the blindly confident Bones, Tom felt a headache and quickly dissuaded him: "Of course it's not about setting up a new bank. A wizard can't do this."

This is not to belittle oneself. How can a group of people who have never studied mathematics after the age of eleven be able to master finance? If they can calculate the exchange rate between Galleons-Siko-Nats, they are proficient in mathematics. From the reports of arithmetic divination

The class rate can show the attitude of wizards towards mathematics - keep a respectful distance.

So of course the basic structure of Gringotts is retained, and then the wizards take over the top layer. Voldemort has applied this idea, and the effect is pretty good. Tom is not going to change it, just copy it. Because judging from the current situation, the wizards want to engage in finance

, it is indeed impossible to get rid of this group of goblins, and the goblins have also lost the soil to build an independent country. The two can only rely on each other, you are among me, and you are among me.

"The Ministry of Magic can take this opportunity to settle in Gringotts, join the goblins' board of directors, supervise the goblins' actions, and the casting rights of Galleons. We can also take the opportunity to take back the goblins' hands." Tom felt that even if the wizard only

Being responsible for signing is better than not caring about anything now.

"Also, we really need to send some young wizards who have just graduated to enter the Muggle world to learn financial knowledge, otherwise things like today will happen again sooner or later. We can set up a new department in the Ministry of Magic, and it can be called Magic

Department of Finance, or Department of Magical Financial Supervision." Tom looked at Bones and said sincerely.

The young wizard who has just graduated is only seventeen or eighteen years old, which is just the age to enter university. As for not being able to enter university without test scores? This is not a problem. You can get into many universities in Europe and the United States with krypton money. The Ministry of Magic can definitely get it.

Spend hundreds of millions of gold, and then donate it to the business school of a certain university, such as Stanford or the London School of Economics, to get a few places to study. As for graduation... I can only pray to Merlin.

In order to avoid further irritating the goblins, Tom did not mention the more radical reform plan. If he wanted to humiliate the goblins, he could safely force Gringotts to change its name to something like Wringotts, but he did not

Necessary, fighting for temporary rhetorical benefits will not bring benefits.

Listening to Tom's bank reform plan, Bones suddenly became enlightened, and a bright road seemed to appear in front of her. What made her even more excited was that if this reform could succeed, she would become as great and famous as Otalian Gamble.

Minister of Magic. Minister Gamble’s achievement is to build the Hogwarts Express, and her achievement is to reform Gringotts, return financial power to wizards, and realize the long-cherished wish of wizards for centuries!

Based on this achievement, it is not too much to judge him as the greatest Minister of Magic in the 20th or 21st century, right?

Bones was moved. In her eyes, this snow-white building didn't look like a bank, but rather like a monument telling her great achievements!

When Minister Bones fell into longing for a better future, Tom left. He wanted to rush back to Hogwarts and hand over Voldemort's Horcrux and Hufflepuff's Gold Cup to Dumbledore.

After this matter is settled, he will go to No. 12 Grimmauld Place to get the locket. He will single-handedly destroy most of Voldemort's Horcruxes and collect the relics of the founders of the four major colleges. etc.

Once he gets the Resurrection Stone again, he will complete two achievements that are rare in the magic world: collecting all three holy artifacts and collecting all four holy relics.

Thinking of this, Tom's mood suddenly improved, and the haze that had been hanging in his heart seemed to dissipate a little.

Tom's feet touched the road, and he returned to the familiar Hogsmeade Street. It was already evening, the sun was setting, and a golden glow spread on the street, making all the buildings seem to be covered with a layer of gold powder.

The moment he landed, he saw Dumbledore and Hermione standing next to him.
