For many centuries, the relationship between wizards and goblins has been full of contradictions.
Although many wizards still believe that goblins are succumbing to them, and regard goblins as some kind of inferior creatures.
But it turns out that in today's magical civilization, goblins are the only magical race smart enough to compete with wizards.
Conflicts often broke out between goblins and wizards in history, but they have never been expelled from the civilized world like other magical races such as giants, centaurs, fishmen, and elves, and even erased the traces of civilization and suffered from generations to generations.
The enslavement of wizards.
The goblins manage Gringotts and control the market economy of wizarding society to a large extent.
At the same time, metal products made by goblins, especially magic silverware, have always been sought after by wizards and are of high value.
Since goblins have great differences with wizards on both the political and social levels, the Ministry of Magic of various countries and the International Federation of Wizards have introduced special legislation for goblins on more than one occasion to restrict their rights and castrate them quietly with a dull knife.
Everything about the fairy civilization.
If he hadn't been forced into a dead end, Leos wouldn't have betrayed the Presbyterian Church and looked for a spark of hope that could be broken and rebuilt.
And when Leos discovered that the ambition and vision in the heart of the "Fairy Queen" were far beyond everyone's imagination, the situation was no longer within his control. His only wish was that the "Fairy Queen" could always win.
Go down.
Compared to the most prominent Dark Lords and politicians in history, Elena's "kind" shortcomings have become her greatest strengths.
Although, this Fairy Queen only shows her precious kindness at certain times.
And in more cases, Her Majesty the Queen's kindness comes at a price.
For example...
Leos glanced at the plan in his hand with a melancholy look.
Unlike those young goblins, as an old guy over two hundred years old, he has seen too many "cost" scenes.
He witnessed the impregnable Bastille burning in flames, he saw the corpses hanging on the city street lamps changed from big capitalists to members of the Paris Commune, and he witnessed how the arrogant German Third Reich fell apart in the red torrent...
…
Of course, there are also the bells that failed to ring again in the distant Red Square in Moscow last Christmas...
Those lamentable ideals and revolutions will eventually be annihilated over time, like the increasingly blurred fairy inscriptions on the edge of old golden galleons.
And now, the Goblins of Gringotts are also standing at the center of the wave of the times.
But for Leos, he doesn't have to think about things that are too long ago.
He is already very old. Perhaps he will leave before Dumbledore and Grindelwald and other old wizards pass away.
"Inspection team, audit team two, count the number of people, we are ready to go"
Leos squeezed the parchment in his hand, and a look of ferocity appeared on his old face.
"Let's go, it's time for us to go to the Americas to end the division. Only the blood of traitors can clean the stained gold galleons. After this audit is completed, we will usher in the most powerful Gringotts in history.
Praise the supreme Fairy Queen!”
…………
Are employees of banks and tax bureaus considered proletarians?
Of course it counts.
Okay, this statement seems a bit strange when it comes to the goblins of Gringotts, but in theory there is definitely no problem.
As profit-seeking goblins, if they become the "proletariat" in the magical world, their combat effectiveness in the future may far exceed that of workers in the non-magical world. The goblins incarnated by old social capital become the ones who resist capital in the new era.
Proletarian fighter?
Although I always feel a little uneasy about doing this, since fairies are a non-human race, this is the only way out...
From a certain perspective, this should be considered a fairy tale ending, right?
The reform of magical society must be promoted bit by bit.
Although Elena made a lot of plans and laid a lot of secrets.
Even the broad future of the labor movement, proletarian revolution, etc. after the completion of "magic capitalization" is planned.
But these plans obviously cannot be realized in a short time, and the time span may even be calculated in ten or twenty years.
Considering the backward productivity in today's magic age, industrialized industries do not exist at all. Most basic magic industries rely on scattered production like small workshops. Even the broomstick company is just a larger processing factory. Many plans must be advanced slowly.
.
What's more, progress in basic academic fields is also a problem.
At present, many applied magics at Hogwarts are still being transformed from laboratories to industrial processes, not to mention being widely spread in the wizarding world.
As the "Fool" of the fake prophet, her most important duty is to tell everyone what to do first.
After the meeting, Elena returned directly to the principal's office at Hogwarts via the Floo network.
Dumbledore and Grindelwald happened to be there, and the two seemed to be communicating about what lines the script "No Dumbledore" had to rehearse before and after every time they went out. Elena and Dumbledore were here.
The views are quite consistent on one point.
"As I said, those Ministry of Magic officials didn't even say a few words to me."
When Elena walked through the fireplace and appeared in the office, Grindelwald said impatiently.
"As for facial expressions and movements, just keep smiling. There is nothing worth communicating about. It is almost all unnutritious conversations. If you may talk about these things later, just pretend that you can't remember. If you are still not satisfied, then
I’ll deal with it myself next time.”
He ignored Dumbledore and turned to look at Elena, who had just returned from Gringotts.
"How's it going? There shouldn't be any problems with the Gringotts goblins, right?"
"Leos stood up and questioned it a little bit, which was good in terms of the final result."
Elena shrugged and roughly recounted the questions and answers that took place in the underground meeting hall in a relaxed tone.
"So, the goblins handed over the right to mint money so simply?" Grindelwald raised his eyebrows.
"You even agreed to give up your property?" Dumbledore also had the same expression.
"Is this weird?"
Elena glanced at the two old men curiously and said calmly.
"The goblins at Gringotts Wizarding Bank have never wanted to be hostile to wizards."
"Besides, what happened a few months ago also proved that they are in danger. If they don't make some changes and compromises, then Gringotts Wizarding Bank will not be able to exist for so many years. But the goblins hope to get a promise
