Chapter 17 Gringotts

As time passed, Luo Lin's life gradually returned to its former orderly and routine state. Luo Lin began his day's activities.

——First, he recited the beautiful and moving "poem" with great emotion, and then he exercised his body unremittingly, improving his physical fitness and endurance through various sports.

However, despite Rowling's hard work day after day, he has not made many substantial breakthroughs in his research on the soul.

Most of the time, the work he did was just at the theoretical level. Although he had watched the Harry Potter movies, he only had one-sided knowledge and insights. However, it seemed that he still had a long way to go before he could truly unlock the door to the mysteries of the soul.

Faced with such a dilemma, he decided to go out and look for materials.

The first stop of his journey was the magical Harry Potter. If memory serves me right, Harry Potter is currently living in a seemingly ordinary building at 4 Privet Drive, Little Whinging, Surrey, England.

In order to celebrate the birthday of Harry's annoying cousin, Dudley Dursley, everyone discussed and decided to go to the zoo together to have a good time.

Little did he know that this trip would become the starting point for Harry Potter to step into the magical world. At the same time, on this special day, Harry Potter miraculously awakened the ability to communicate with snakes, Voldemort's Parseltongue talent.

As for Dudley Dursley's birthday, it seems to be on June 23. So today is June 21, 1991, which means there are only two days left until the anticipated moment.

Well, that's plenty of time! However, the real eye-catching focus is not just limited to this, but the mysterious and ancient magic hidden in Harry Potter!

——【Love Protection】seems to contain a deeper and more meaningful value. You know, Lily Potter almost sacrificed her life to successfully cast this powerful spell from ancient times on her son!

It is truly a moving story to make Harry Potter the savior, and it has been so for many years.

[All my glory comes from the separation of life and death. My parents died tragically at the hands of Voldemort, and the only thing that people remember is the boy who survived the disaster, the so-called savior. All the praises from others seem to be mocking me for being an orphan. ]

I'd better go to Gringotts in Diagon Alley first to exchange some Muggle pounds, otherwise gold Galleons will be difficult to use when traveling to the Muggle world.

After explaining everything to Xiao Ke, Rowling left the cabin in the Dark Forest and flew to Diagon Alley together. After several hours of flying, Rowling was still out of breath. Although he had the blessing of magic, he was still tired.

This time Rowling did not come to the Leaky Cauldron, because the Leaky Cauldron was a turning point from the Muggle world to the wizarding world, and Rowling himself lived in the wizarding world. Of course, he landed directly from the sky into Diagon Alley.

Many wizards have fireplaces installed in their homes and have Floo powder access in the Department of Magical Affairs, which allows them to teleport directly to the Leaky Cauldron, but Rowling does not.

Although it is convenient, it will still expose his place of residence. Rowling knows very well that there are Death Eaters in the Department of Magical Affairs, so as a big shot, he must keep a low profile.

At the end of Diagon Alley is Gringotts. When they arrived at the entrance of Gringotts, it was clearly written "Gringotts Wizarding Bank". Rowling looked at the exterior of the building and found it was crooked, whether it was the pillars of the main entrance or the side walls.

This is the only wizard bank in the magic world. The building is indeed very distinctive, with a white stone staircase leading to two bright silver bronze doors. Next to it stood two goblins in scarlet and gold uniforms.

"Hello, little wizard, how can I help you?" Looking at the magical grey robe on Rowling's body and the dazzling crystal ring on his hand, it was obvious that he was not from an ordinary wizard family and must be worth a lot of money, so the fairy stepped forward and asked flatteringly.

"I need to exchange some Muggle currency," Rowling said proudly. He knew very well how greedy and cunning the goblins were. If you talk to them calmly, they will think you are weak and can be bullied.

"It's my pleasure to serve you, little wizard. Please come in." The goblin led Rowling the way and stared at his ring from time to time.

Luo Lin walked in and saw the second silver door. The words engraved on the two silver doors were [Please come in, stranger, but you must be careful, what will happen if you are greedy? The end result is that those who only ask for things without working for them will be punished most severely.

Therefore, if you wish to take a portion of our underground vault, it is a treasure that never belonged to you. Thief, you have been warned, beware of the evil consequences that may come to you instead of treasure.] Luo Lin watched with interest and stepped through the second door.

There were also two goblins standing on both sides of the door. Further inside was a tall marble hall. Hundreds of goblins sat on high stools behind a row of long cabinets, weighing coins with copper scales, examining gems with eyepieces, or making hasty entries in account books. There were countless doors in the hall, leading to different vaults.

The goblin led Rowling to a tall counter with a currency exchange sign on it. "This little wizard needs to exchange some Muggle currency," the goblin said to the clerk behind the counter.

The goblin clerk leaned on the high counter, stared down at Rowling and said, "So, little wizard, what do you use to exchange for Muggle currency? Is it gold galleons, gold, or gems?"

"Rowling shook his hand and gold coins fell from the storage ring onto the counter. There were a total of one thousand gold Galleons." How much can this be exchanged for?

The goblins around looked at the gold galleons on the table in disbelief. What surprised them the most was the ring on Rowling's hand. Although wizards all had bags or suitcases with the Traceless Stretch spell, few could cast the Traceless Stretch spell on gemstones. This was not only an innovation in alchemy, but more importantly, no one could do it.

They stared at the ring with greedy eyes, their eyes almost popped out of their heads. Rowling stretched out his wand and warned them without disguising it. Only then did the goblins withdraw their gazes. "Dear little wizard, one gold galleon can be exchanged for 5 yuan of Muggle currency. A total of 5000 pounds can be exchanged here. If possible, we want to buy the ring on your hand." The goblin said his intention without disguising it.

Luo Lin hesitated for a moment, thinking, "These goblins are really straightforward. Although it is not difficult to make this storage ring, I still understand the principle that things are valuable because they are rare. Moreover, the wizarding world has never lacked talented wizards.

If some people could see through the magic circle engraved inside, this thing would be worthless. Moreover, 1 gold galleon can only be exchanged for 5 pounds. It seems too worthless. You have to know that there were millionaires on Blue Star in the s, not to mention in the UK.

Although the exchange of Muggle currency for gold Galleons is restricted, it still hurts a bit. 5000 seems too little. Gold Galleons are more popular in the wizarding world. I exchanged 1000 gold Galleons for Muggle currency. I am probably a fool among the many time travelers. I should have known better. 100 gold Galleons would have been enough. "

After Luo Lin finished his mental activity, he said to the fairy, "This kind of ring is very complicated to make. It was also made by a very skilled alchemist in my family. The gems on it are also very rare. I don't have any extra ones. If we are destined to be together, I will consider it!"

The two fairies looked at each other and turned back to talk in a low voice. "Little wizard, what do you think of 1000 gold galleons?"

Luo Lin stared at the price quoting fairy without saying anything.

The fairy scratched his head awkwardly and said, "How about 2000 fate?"

Luo Lin rolled his eyes.

"Then let's make it 5000 fate. This is already our greatest fate."

Luo Lin turned around and left without any regrets, but thought to himself, "Oh my god, these goblins are too rich!"

Luo Lin took a step forward and said, "Oh, that's not right. Why didn't the fairy call me? Then he took two more steps, three more steps, four more steps. Why didn't the fairy try to stop me? Isn't that how it's played out in TV dramas?"

Finally, Rowling could not help but stop. The two fairies saw Rowling stop and smiled strangely. Rowling turned around and said, "If you can find another energy-rich gem, my Rowling Gandalf family should have a good relationship with you."

The two fairies immediately took out a contract and wrote down the agreement without saying a word. Luo Lin was dumbfounded and muttered to himself, "I lost! I am still too young." But he added that I have to get the gem first.

"Of course! Once this magic contract is signed, no one can break it."

Rowling read the contract carefully and signed his name. He said, "Before Hogwarts starts school this year, I will fulfill the contract. My name is Rowling Gandalf."

"Okay Mr. Rowling, you can call me Griphook. This is the gem you want."

Luo Lin took the gem and felt the magical fluctuations inside. "It's a nice ruby. Very dazzling. See you next time, Mr. Griphook."

After saying that, Rowling walked out of Gringotts.

At this time, Xiao Ke said quietly, "What a cunning fairy!"

"Everyone takes what they need. Anyway, we are not the ones who lose. It's just a matter of how much we earn. Monopoly is the way to survive."
