Chapter 3 Gringotts

Wo Bu Geng Xin
"Do you have money?"
Professor McGonagall suddenly thought of a very important point.After all, although the clothes on Luke's body are exquisite, it is obvious that they are not close to the body. They should be the clothes left by the adults.
Luke nodded and said, "If you have money, you need to go to Gringotts to get it."
As he said that, he took out the coat of arms in his hand: "We have to use this. This is our family's treasury. Except us, only the goblins of Gringotts know about it."
Professor McGonagall nodded, and he also knew that if these things had not been concealed from the other Gaunt family, then there would probably be none left.Whether it is the extravagance in the heyday or the downfall in the last years, they will be full of desire for the money. As for the life and death of their own clan, who will care?
Professor McGonagall has come into contact with many pure-blood wizards, whether it is the so-called big family or those small families, some of their arrogance and viciousness are almost on the face.The number of these fallen pure-blood wizards is quite large.Although it is undeniable that there are many people in pure blood who are very friendly.Such as the Weasley family, or the Shacklebolt family and so on.
But among all these nobles, the child in front of him is the child who makes Professor McGonagall feel like he has seen a nobleman the most.
'I don't know if there are such hidden people in other families. '
This thought flashed in Professor McGonagall's mind.But she immediately denied it.There really are such excellent talents, wouldn't it be good to directly pull them out to stabilize their own power?The situation of the current pure-blood families is not very good. Voldemort's defeat has caused many pure-blood families to be excluded from the center of power.Some even reached the brink of destruction.What do you want to do by hiding people at a time like this?
After recovering, Professor McGonagall said to Luke: "Follow me, let's go to Gringotts first."
So Luke followed the footsteps of Professor McGonagall and walked towards a tall white building.
Not too far away, they walked for a while and arrived at the door.In front of the bronze gate, two goblin guards in scarlet and gold uniforms saluted the two and opened the gate for them.The attitude is quite respectful.
Then another silver door came into view, with some words engraved on it.Luke glanced briefly, and found that it was actually a warning from the goblins to those who wanted to steal.
Luke was not interested in this, and this kind of warning was useless at all. Voldemort ordered Professor Quirrell to snatch it, and then Harry and the others directly lifted the place...
So these threats are really not deterrent.
Professor McGonagall is very familiar with this place, so he went straight through the silver door without stopping, and came to the middle of the hall, and Luke quickly followed.
There were goblins counting money on both sides of the hall, and Luke didn't care, and walked straight to the highest seat in the middle.
A goblin with thinning hair and half-moon glasses sat there, and he saw Professor McGonagall and Luke from a distance.This made him feel a little helpless, after all, he had just sent away a Hogwarts game guard, and now a genuine professor who knew Hogwarts came.More importantly, he is very clear that students who can be guided by professors are often not simple.
So there is a high probability that this person is not here to handle the service of exchanging British pounds for Galleons.
"Luke Gaunt will inherit the treasury left by Robert Gaunt." Luke stepped forward and calmly showed the goblin the coat of arms in his hand.
The goblin gasped.He thought this little guy would be difficult, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult.Damn, it's the heir to the Gaunt family in the dark.He thought that after so many years, the people in that family were all dead.
Although he quickly returned to normal, his reaction could not be hidden from Professor McGonagall after all.Judging from this guy's reaction, I'm afraid the money in the treasury should be an unimaginable amount.
"Please wait."
With that said, he got off the high chair and entered a room.
Another goblin immediately stepped forward, saluted the two of them, and made a leading gesture.Luke and Professor McGonagall followed another goblin into a room.The rooms are exquisite and elegant, obviously not for ordinary guests.
After a while, the president returned to Luke holding a small box.
Open the box, inside is a snake carved out of a whole piece of dark green gemstone.A red gemstone is embedded in the socket of the left eye, but there is only one eye.Nobuko spit it out, but her mouth was tightly shut.
"Please put a drop of blood in your eye."
The goblin's tone was flat and severe.Behind this is a huge benefit. Although he has the verification of Hogwarts, he still has to carry out this step. First, the process is necessary, and second, he is really unwilling.
Those treasures, if no one comes to claim them in another 100 years, they can be classified as ownerless, and then become the property of Gringotts...
Without any hesitation, Luke immediately took out his knife from his waist and cut his finger.A drop of blood spilled from the wound and fell on the snake's right eye socket.
But the snake didn't seem to respond.
There was a light in the fairy's eyes.Professor McGonagall also frowned.Luke was already calm.Sure enough, after about 13 seconds, the academy condensed a gemstone in the socket of the right eye, and the whole snake changed from dark green to emerald green.The mouth opened, revealing a key. ???.
Luke took out the key calmly, smiled and said to the goblin with an obviously disappointed expression on his face: "Please lead the way, I want to withdraw some money to buy some things, as you can see, I am so desperate that I don't even have a suit that fits." No clothes."
The goblin's professionalism is still very good, so he nodded and his expression returned to normal: "Please come with me."
Then he led the two of them towards the vault.
After getting on the pulley, the huge cave and the vaults on the edge of the cave greeted the eyes.
This is where almost the entire UK wizarding world is deposited.If anyone ransacked this place, regardless of how much money they could get, it was almost inevitable that they would be besieged by almost all British wizards.
The tackle didn't go very far and then slid down a branch.At the end, but there is no treasure house gate, replaced by a dark cave.Professor McGonagall was actually quite surprised.Luke had no intention of leaving her behind in this kind of thing.She didn't think Luke would ignore it.This can be clearly seen from his worried face now.
Luke was also negligent. On the way here, it suddenly occurred to him that today seems to be July 31st... If I remember correctly, today is also the time when Harry and the others came to Gringotts.In other words, it was also the day that Gringotts was attacked.It's really unfortunate that grandma is a bear.So of course he didn't dare to throw away his 'thighs' and come here to make waves by himself.
Furthermore, he is quite confident in Professor McGonagall's conduct.Unless the inheritance left by the Gaunt family is quite exaggerated, he believes that Professor McGonagall, who has seen the world, will never be moved!
