Elena stood next to Phoenix Fox's bird stand, holding a handful of simply fried winter wheat. She watched patiently as Phoenix bent its graceful and slender neck, stretched out its long beak and carefully pecked it in the palm of her hand.
wheat.
After the efforts of Dumbledore and Grindelwald, as well as Elena's repeated assurances, Phoenix Fawkes finally reluctantly accepted the feeding of this little mixed-blood Veela - the main reason is that the recent
For a while, this little girl came to the principal's office too frequently, and she was really tired of hiding, not because the fried winter wheat and dried fish were so fragrant.
Not far away from her, Dumbledore frowned and looked carefully at the thin leaflet in front of him. The old man's hands were trembling slightly, as if there was some extremely terrifying devil hidden in it.
Right next to Dumbledore's hand was a half-opened envelope.
It was a letter from his brother Aberforth Dumbledore. Since the tragedy happened decades ago, the two brothers had not communicated with each other for a long time, breaking the ice barrier that had existed for decades.
The opportunity turned out to be...
"It's unimaginable that Aberforth would write to recommend this to me?"
Dumbledore took off his glasses and gently pinched his swollen eyebrows, his tone full of complexity and exhaustion.
"The entire magical world has been dragged into the water by you, Miss Kaslana, have you really thought about how all this should end? This is no joke. As far as I know, almost all pure-blood families have been trapped in this trap.
It’s inside.”
"It's very simple, just eat Gringotts."
Elena replied calmly without looking back, carelessly stroking Fox's warm golden-red feathers.
"It was originally an absurd dream. Gold coins neither increased nor disappeared out of thin air. The bubble burst and everything returned to the deposit value on April 1st. Although it would cause some retracement losses, it was over.
."
"Gringotts Wizarding Bank is an asset that has been managed by goblins for thousands of years. It is the only one in the wizarding world..."
Albus Dumbledore shook his head and said solemnly.
Before the old wizard could finish speaking, Elena poured the winter wheat in her hand into Fox's trough, turned around and glanced at the old man who had been worried since this morning, and sighed helplessly.
.
"Professor Dumbledore, I feel like I've explained this more than five times, right?"
"Old does not mean strong, and it does not mean strong risk resistance. As a banking and financial industry, the foundation of the goblins' life lies in the credit of Gringotts Wizarding Bank. When the market's confidence in Gringotts is shaken,
When banks happen to be facing insufficient reserves and have difficulty cashing out gold galleons... all it takes is a slight push, and endless runs will occur, which is an unstoppable avalanche."
"It is precisely because there is only such a bank in the entire wizarding world that Gringotts also has several taboos in the banking industry such as a single capital attribute, a strong social user group, and zero interbank lending capabilities. In other words, once something happens,
If a large-scale run occurs, the original Gringotts Wizarding Bank will undoubtedly die..."
Elena's blue eyes flashed with a trace of teasing. She casually picked up a piece of fried wheat from Fox's trough and threw it into her mouth. She chewed it twice casually and felt the unique aroma of fried wheat spread in her mouth.
, with a hint of playfulness in his voice.
"Why, dear Professor Albus Dumbledore, all of this was done with your consent. No matter the cause, process, or result, weren't they all carried out strictly in accordance with our plan... Wizard
Taking back the right to mint and issue money from the fairies, isn't this what you've been waiting for?"
"Judging from the results alone, I certainly believe that you can destroy Gringotts... This letter from Aberforth has already shown that wizards in the entire magical world have united to participate in this attack without knowing it.
Amid a run."
Dumbledore shook his head slowly, picked up the letter in his hand, shook it, and looked deeply at the little witch in front of him.
"But what I'm worried about is you, Miss Elena Kaslana. People may be temporarily deceived, but one day everything will come to an end. And judging from the current madness of wizards, along with the ancient spirit
With the collapse of the cabinet, this false financial game will also collapse - people's anger needs a place to vent. American Muggles may be able to divert some of their attention, but there is absolutely no way to convince the vast majority of wizards. You have never told me,
Who are you going to let bear this sin?"
"Hey, didn't I remember saying that the Dark Lord and his minions..."
Elena spread her hands and answered without hesitation.
"All the fingertips will eventually point to the mastermind behind the scenes. People never care about the truth. People will only believe what they want to believe. The Dark Lord mortgaged Hogwarts, the Dark Lord caused an economic crisis, and the Dark Lord created
A financial scam that creates money by making money... The conspiracy was exposed, Gringotts reorganized and established a cross-credit currency system, and you turned the tide..."
The monetary credit of gold galleons may depreciate, but it will never return to zero.
In fact, because of the large-scale minting of gold coins during this period, even without Elena's intervention, the sudden influx of cash into the market will inevitably lead to severe inflation. But the best thing about metal currencies is that they only need a little
By changing the embossing and anti-counterfeiting marks on it, the currency value can be restored faster than any paper currency.
According to the hypothesis put forward by Elena, the "Alchemy" group that controls the largest amount of liquidity can completely replace Gringotts and become a giant that macro-controls the magic world's economy, allowing the magic world's currency to circulate overnight.
achieve optimality.
To achieve this point, only two steps are needed: take control of Gringotts or rebuild a central bank in the ruins of Gringotts, and launch a heinous, profit-minded, anti-social bad guy to destroy all evaporative losses.
.
"Dark Lord? Yes...Dark Lord...but there are only two people in this world who can be called Demon King..."
Albus Dumbledore raised his eyebrows and repeated thoughtfully. His eyes subconsciously looked around the office, and he let out a long sigh of disappointment, and his eyes slowly fell on the little guy in front of him.
On the body.
After a slight pause, the old man took a deep breath, looked into Elena's eyes and asked softly.
