There is no doubt that goblins are highly intelligent humanoid creatures.
Different from the elves or banshees translated in the non-magical world, the accurate spelling of goblins in this world is actually Goblin. If translated into Chinese, the more accurate term should actually be Goblin, or goblin.
Due to the accumulation of running Gringotts Wizarding Bank for many years, the goblins control the economy of the wizarding world to a large extent, making them one of the few races that can compete with wizards - at least, this is what the goblins think.
.
In addition, the magical power of goblins cannot be underestimated. As a race that is born with the ability to cast spells without a wand, and they monopolize the magic weapon production industry, they are indeed an extremely difficult non-human intelligent force.
but……
Obviously, compared to their talents in finance and magic forging, goblins do not understand what politics is.
In Elena's view, the goblins of Gringotts are like the bankers who were inflated hundreds of years ago. They have been so immersed in the business field that they have forgotten that the rules of the game in this world are not static.
.
Perhaps a small number of smart goblins can see the danger behind this, but in the face of huge interests, they unanimously choose to take desperate risks - nearly 10 billion rubles, which is enough to make all goblins forget all risks.
"So, can we regard this as a threat?"
Elena picked up the teacup at hand, took a small sip, and replied softly and casually.
"If this is Gringotts' answer, then you can go... Hogwarts will pay the rubles that have been prepared in advance. I am very curious whether Gringotts, which controls the economic lifeline of the wizarding world, can completely block all
Ruble payment channel.”
According to the flow of funds in the magical and non-magical world, as well as the information revealed by the old goblin in front of him, most of the Soviet Union's non-circulating ruble foreign exchange reserves are probably under the control of the Gringotts goblins.
As an important economic entity that serves as a bridge for the circulation and exchange of funds between the magical and non-magical worlds, as well as a channel for the inflow and outflow of currency in the entire magical world, in the eyes of the goblins, Gringotts will almost always be invincible.
After all, for Hogwarts, there are only two ways to raise nearly 10 billion rubles in cash.
1. Break the secrecy regulations of the magical world and openly conduct financial docking with non-magical governments.
Second, in the existing circulation market, cash is recovered in the form of profit through the most primitive currency transactions.
However, in the imaginary model established by the goblins, both situations are almost impossible to happen.
Regarding the former, unless Hogwarts directly declares war on the entire international wizarding world, setting off a global wizarding war like Grindelwald, and ultimately wins, it will be impossible to break the magic world's secrecy law.
As for the latter, it is an impossible event on another level, even more absurd than the former.
Even if the Soviet Union was dissolved overnight, and the ruble lost its trading value from the circulation market overnight and became waste paper, let alone Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, even the wizarding world would not be able to collect these from Muggles.
"waste paper".
The significance of currency lies in circulation. There is only one way to collect currency cash in the circulation market, and that is to give them the attributes of transaction symbols - even if you collect waste paper, you still need to pay a certain basic consideration.
Currency scattered in the circulation market is not so easy to obtain.
This is like wanting to make a profit. There is an insurmountable difference between earning one yuan from 10,000 people and earning 10,000 yuan from one rich man at once.
In other words, unless Hogwarts can cover most of the Soviet Union's physical trading market, complete the semi-monopoly dumping of a certain important material, and achieve tens of billions of rubles in profits through commercial means in a short period of time.
Otherwise, even if the ruble depreciates to the point of being worthless, it will be meaningless to the magical world of closed supply loop.
However, for Leos, the most troublesome problem now is how to make these stupid wizards realize the cruelty of reality - obviously, maybe the wizards have similar information channels to them, but in the analysis of financial issues
It's only a little stronger than the stupid giant monster.
"Miss Kaslana, you don't understand the problem you are facing... Wealth is not as simple as you think."
Leos suppressed the anger in his heart and took a deep breath, a trace of disdain flashed across his wrinkled old face.
"Unless you expose the existence of the wizarding world, you have no way to get rubles from Muggles, do you understand? Even if the rubles depreciate and become waste paper, as long as Gringotts does not open an unlimited redemption window, those gold Galleons in your hands will
The US dollars and British pounds can only be exchanged for their original appearance and cannot be exchanged for the land deed certificate of your school."
"So...that's it? Are you finished?"
After taking a look at the stubborn and excited old goblin, Elena sighed in disappointment.
Perhaps she thought too highly of the group of goblins in Gringotts. She originally thought they would be a group of difficult kings, but she didn't expect...
Perhaps this is what is described as the situation where the person becomes mentally weak because of his sharpness, right?
Elena put down the tea cup in her hand, waved her hand without interest, stood up and walked to the bird stand, took off the white Quidditch cloak, and walked towards the door of the principal's office as if no one else was there.
"Professor Dumbledore, don't call me next time for something like this... just refuse. There's nothing to say."
"Stop! You arrogant little girl, do you know what you are rejecting?!"
Leos suddenly opened his arms and stood in front of Elena with an agility that was not suitable for his age and figure. His breathing gradually became rapid and heavy, and he waved the mortgage deed signed a few months ago in his hand.
.
"This is a win-win deal! As long as you put a little pressure, the debt between Hogwarts and Gringotts can be written off! Do you understand?! Hogwarts will get billions of gold galleons out of thin air.
The reward and the eternal friendship from Gringotts, aren’t these enough!”
Looking at the old goblin standing in front of her, Elena's face became a little ugly.
The girl couldn't help but move her fingers slightly, raised her head and glanced at Dumbledore with a questioning look - she saw that the old wizard was still sitting on the seat, without any movement, just watching quietly with an intriguing look.
Elena.
Obviously, no matter what Elena plans to do next, the old man will not stop her.
but……
