The news in today's newspaper represents the end of an old era. At least in the past, even though Voldemort exerted a strong influence on Gringotts through various means after controlling the Ministry of Magic in London, England, it did not directly intervene in Gringotts as it does now.
The internal operation of Gringotts even did things that completely destroyed the foundation of Gringotts.
You must know that Gringotts has been able to stand for so many years not just because of the authorization of the Ministry of Magic. The most important thing that allows everyone to trust these goblins who were enemies before and store their wealth in it is that the goblins insist on maintaining it.
Guests' privacy while ensuring that they will not attempt to obtain wealth that does not belong to them.
Although humans and goblins have different perceptions of wealth ownership, the goblins still respect human perceptions despite the serious gap in power between the two parties. This has also allowed Gringotts to exist for hundreds of years with this kind of credit.
, and even monopolized the British financial industry.
But now it's all over, just as the Swiss banking industry was severely damaged when the United States required Swiss banks to hand over depositors' accounts before Lane traveled. The Death Eaters' current actions of removing gold from their own vaults are also severely damaged.
Gringotts, from now on, Gringotts has lost its golden signature and will not have the absolute advantage it did before.
However, this behavior also shows that Lane's previous tactics were successful. The Death Eaters now hope to raise enough money through this method to make up for the losses caused by the destruction of the manor, and then stabilize the American wizards in order to obtain more
resources.
"Oh, I really don't know whether I should feel happy or sad right now." Hermione muttered in a low voice, but was heard by Ryan next to her. So Ryan asked curiously: "What are you talking about?"
"That's it." Watching the people in the tent walk out of the tent after discussing the previous things, taking away the two goblins who almost fainted from crying. Hermione opened her mouth and said simply.
, "The losses on our side are indeed huge, but the mysterious man exchanges long-term benefits for short-term benefits. From a certain perspective, this is conducive to further tilting the war advantage to us."
"Fortunately, we introduced our own bank in advance, so the overall impact on us should not be big." Ryan analyzed calmly. "But the impact on the mysterious person may be big. Don't forget that we can confiscate our bank today."
The wealth there will definitely be confiscated tomorrow, even the wealth of other people, even the Death Eaters, and to be honest, the Death Eaters have much more wealth than we do."
After walking out of the tent, Ryan found that everyone was packing up the camp and preparing to evacuate. A guerrilla watched Ryan walk out of the tent and came over and asked. "Commander, where should we go next?"
After hearing this sentence, many wizards who were cleaning up also cast their eyes over. Because of the previous winning streak, the morale of the entire team was very high, and everyone was eager to fight bravely under the leadership of Ryan.
"I think we should go back to Hogsmeade for a holiday today." Ryan said to everyone, "After all, we have been fighting for such a long time, and it is time to take a rest. And I just read the newspaper, and it should be the day after tomorrow.
It’s Christmas.”
"Is Christmas coming soon?" Many wizards showed expressions of sudden realization. After all, they had been locked in dungeons or on the run, or even locked up with dementors. In this case, their lives had been very blurry.
, they didn’t realize that Christmas was coming until Ryan said it today.
"Great, let's go home for Christmas." The wizards cheered softly. Although they still have a strong fighting spirit and a firm will to fight, they still feel a little tired from the previous continuous battles. Therefore, for them
, having the opportunity to have a good rest and reunite with their families is definitely news that makes them happy.
So after getting the news that they were going home for Christmas, everyone was much more agile than before. Soon the entire camp was cleaned up. After the previous patrol returned, everyone returned with the two goblins.
Hogsmeade.
"Ah, welcome, our heroes." As soon as they arrived at the gate of Hogsmeade, Percy, who was the captain of the town gate guard today, greeted them warmly. "By the way, why are you all here today?
Already?"
Ryan and the others would send people to deliver the loot and the rescued hostages after the battle, but a group of people had never all come back. So Percy asked a little strangely after seeing a group of people.
"Oh, we are back for Christmas." Ryan explained. After hearing this, Percy patted his forehead gently. "Oh my God! You are right, Christmas is coming soon.
, I have been so busy recently that I almost forgot about it. This is simply too bad. My mother would kill me if I didn't think of it today - By the way, what happened to the two goblins in your team?
thing?"
After seeing the two goblins who were standing behind the crowd and were blocked by everyone, Percy asked. "Are these the hostages you rescued from previous raids? It feels like you always bring them with you every time you come here.
Bringing all kinds of people here."
"No, they were just things we met on the road." Ryan said, "But they had been being hunted by a mysterious man before, so we brought them here conveniently."
"If that's the case, you'd better take those two goblins to the Ministry of Magic. I think the staff of the Ministry of Magic should be able to arrange a suitable accommodation for them." Percy said, and at this time others also checked.
Ryan and the others' passes. After seeing his companion's signal, Percy made a gesture of invitation. "Wish you a Merry Christmas!"
"Same for you." Ryan said, and then he and everyone came to the main road of the town. Now there are more people on the road than before. There is even the prosperity of Hogsmeade Day before the war. Because it was raining a few days ago.
It has snowed, so there is a thick layer of snow everywhere in the town.
There are many Christmas decorations in the shops on both sides of the road and on the road: people decorate the doors and windows of the shops with various bright ornaments and mistletoe, while magic dyes draw various Christmas banners and garlands tied with branches.
They were hung above the road with magic, and some garlands were even enchanted with special magic, and he kept singing Christmas songs.
In addition, various Christmas supplies also appeared in the windows of many shops, and merchants also carried out corresponding activities. For example, Ryan saw the panda man in front of the bank wearing a red and white Santa Claus costume for everyone.
A wizard passing by the bank distributed candies. In short, the tension of the war in the whole town was reduced a lot, and everyone was immersed in the joy of the festival.
"I'll send these two goblins to the Ministry of Magic. After all, I'm familiar with the people there." Dirk Creswell said. At this time, everyone had arrived at the center of Hogsmeade Town.
Now a huge Christmas tree has been placed, and several children are having a snowball fight around the tree.
"Okay, then everyone will disband now and go home. If anything happens, we will contact you." After Ryan finished speaking to everyone, he watched everyone leave. Every wizard looked very excited, except for the two
The goblin seemed to be in a state of disbelief, following Dirk towards the magic walk on the hill like a zombie.
"Then where are we going now? Back to school." After watching everyone leave, Hermione turned around and asked. "Ginny and the others wrote a lot of letters a while ago, and I really want to meet them now."
"Let's go to the Weasley Joke Shop for the time being." Ryan suggested. "I heard that Weasley and the others prepared some special Christmas products a while ago. I want to see how the sales of those products are now?"
