Dumbledore rubbed his brows, summoned a wooden chair and sat down in front of the two "His Royal Highnesses", and said helplessly, "It all started this morning when our Minister of Magic was killed by a group of irritable Gringotts goblins.
Blocked the entrance to the magic department and started talking——"
"Then, Mr. Fudge took the Gringotts goblins to find you at Hogwarts?" Elena raised her eyebrows and interjected.
Obviously, if you can win by lying down, you will never take the initiative to carry. This is human nature. Connery Fudge, the most messy Minister in the history of the Ministry of Magic, naturally will not solve the problem by himself.
Especially someone like Albus Dumbledore, who has all kinds of auras and reputations, but he doesn't want to take away any merit and achievements.
"That's right." Dumbledore said, with a smile on his face, "To be precise, this time it was the goblins of Gringotts who first suggested it to Cornelius Fudge. You know, since that
After the rigorously written magic contract, goblins have generally become more polite when facing wizards in the magic world. Not to mention, most of the news coming these days is what we expected.
.”
"It's a pity that you weren't the one who drafted that contract." Grindelwald grinned, "And... you weren't the one who made the deduction. The Ministry of Magic and the goblins obviously found the wrong person."
"A month ago, that might have been the case. But, that's not necessarily the case now."
As the old silver-bearded wizard spoke, he blinked flexibly at Elena, his azure eyes showing a proud look through his half-moon eyes.
"Sometimes, don't underestimate a wizard's intelligence and learning ability. After all, when I was studying at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, I was also an honors student with first-class grades. Compared to arithmetic, divination and astronomy,
The financial-related knowledge is not that difficult to understand.”
After identifying the gaps in knowledge that needed to be filled, with Albus Dumbledore's status in the wizarding world and his vast social circle, it was not too difficult to find some books on basic economics.
.
After all, the stakes were so high that Dumbledore would not really place all his chips and hopes on a little girl who had only been in school for less than a week. In contrast, he believed more in the judgment he made after thinking.
.
"So, Professor Dumbledore... you want to say that you became a master of economics in one month?" Elena raised her eyebrows, and her face seemed to be filled with four big words - [Bird
All the bows are hidden]
"of course not."
Dumbledore shook his head and replied gently, "But in a month, I can at least understand what the currency exchange rate is, what the so-called short selling and long selling means... and what Miss Kaslana signed."
That mortgage contract is such a wonderful work of art."
"amazing."
Sitting aside, Grindelwald crossed his two index fingers and gently tapped the protruding finger knot. He couldn't help but sneered, "I actually heard a feeling of pride from your mouth?"
Dumbledore glanced at Grindelwald, his eyes showing a strange look that was almost pity.
"Being able to figure out what you are talking about is an amazing ability in itself - most people cannot do this, Gellert." Dumbledore shook his head and said softly.
"Albus, what do you mean?" Grindelwald frowned.
Without responding to Grindelwald's question, Dumbledore turned his head to look at Elena and said in a serious tone, "Just early this morning, the goblins of the North American branch of Gringotts Wizarding Bank announced their separation from the original system of Gringotts.
Make a separate financial settlement. To the goblins, you know what that means."
"So, the Gringotts goblins have split into two factions and are preparing for war."
Elena shrugged, raised her head and glanced at Dumbledore with a serious expression, waving her hands innocently, "Professor Dumbledore, you can't rely on me for this matter. Gringotts Europe and
The split of Gringotts America is definitely not an idea that just appeared temporarily this month. It must have gone through a very long process before that."
"Of course I understand this...but now the focus of the struggle between the goblins on both sides, and the fuse of all wars, happens to be a currency called the ruble."
Dumbledore paused, his sharp gaze shot through the half-moon lenses to the little girl in front of him, and he said meaningfully.
"With the entry of funds from Gringotts Goblins in North America, and the MACUSA standing behind them, the exchange rate of the ruble, which had gradually stabilized, has once again plummeted, and everything is perfectly in line with the situation you once had.
Deduction - although the process is not entirely correct, very similar results have emerged."
"Wait, MACUSA?"
Hearing this word for the second time today, Elena narrowed her eyes slightly.
"What role do American wizards play in this story? The civil strife among goblins, what will happen, and the shadow of a national magic department."
