I have to say that part-time work is boring, because Malfoy has to patiently point out the low-level mistakes made by too many goblins, and try his best not to embezzle himself, because these goblins have too primitive a concept of finance, which makes him It seemed so easy for me to make some extra money.
He even wondered if he could control the economy of the entire wizarding world just by bringing in a few strong men from Wall Street.
Of course, he would not do this. First of all, he is not short of money. Second, people who think themselves smart will often pay the price. When the goblins and wizards realize that something is wrong, they may be the first to turn the table. Then the person involved was arrested for the crime of "undermining the financial security of the wizarding world". Even this charge was probably set up by Arthur of the Weasley family through some of the Muggle knowledge he learned.
Wizards may not be terribly smart, but they're not stupid either.
But these are not the reasons for Malfoy's depression. What really makes him depressed is that this place is indeed the safest place in the wizarding world except Hogwarts.
At least for him at the moment, there is nothing he can do. After all, Quirrell dared to rush here to snatch it because of Voldemort's instructions.
The properties of ordinary users can be obtained by opening the vault door with a small golden key, and the more important vaults are guarded by giant dragons. Several times when Malfoy took advantage of his spare time at work and came to some important vaults in a small cart, You can even hear the heavy snorting of the dragon. As for some vaults without keyholes, it is even more difficult to enter. It requires goblins to knock on the door with their long fingers, so that the door will disappear a little bit, but other than that People will be sucked in, but the result is only two, starved to death or suffocated to death, because the time interval of the goblin inspection is once every ten years.
If you want to get in, you have to say that compound soup is indeed the most feasible way, but a certain person is still in Azkaban, and a wanted criminal comes to the bank to withdraw money? Might this be a headline in the Daily Prophet? In addition, the Fire Curse and Copying Curse after entering are also a big problem, but Malfoy can only dispel this idea and complete his accounting work with peace of mind.
"Not bad, though, is it?" he reassured himself. Before he left Gringotts, who was handed out a handsome bonus for the numerous mistakes he found, Mr. Griphook said: "While your father will certainly not approve, we still welcome you after graduation." work here."
"I'll think about it." Malfoy said politely, and then strode away from here. His work was over, because school was about to start. As for Griphook's suggestion, he would definitely not consider it. Is it possible to choose to be a wage earner instead of inheriting a large amount of family property
"By the way, there are gifts." Malfoy, who was about to go home via the Floo network, suddenly thought of this, and immediately turned his head and walked towards the various shops in Diagon Alley.
After walking through several shops, he didn't gain much, but when he walked to the Quidditch boutique, he found something that interested him, a golden snitch.
It is lying quietly on the blue square table of a glass cabinet, the size of a walnut, and it is different from the game, the wings of this small metal ball are close to the wall of the ball at this time, making it hard to imagine the size of the ball on the court. Seekers are maddened by how alive it is, and the tag on the stage reads: "A significant collectible, this is the Golden Snitch from the final between Transylvania and Flanders , but due to the fierce competition between the two sides in that match, the Golden Snitch was irreparably damaged at the end of the match, and the price was five hundred gold Galleons."
"So this golden snitch can't fly, is it broken?" Malfoy knocked on the glass and said in a regretful tone.
"Oh, sir, you can't think like that." The clerk immediately cheered up when he saw a business coming. "The focus of this kind of collection is its historical value, not its use value. You have to know that the Transylvania and Flanders teams are both Quidditch teams with a very long history, especially when they are there. In a game..." The clerk began to talk about that history, hoping to pique Malfoy's interest.
"It's a pity that it's broken." Malfoy shook his head and said, "I'd better buy a broom, at least it's still usable."
"Sir, please think about it again." The clerk became anxious. In fact, this golden snitch has been here for a long time. Go, the boss will definitely look at him with admiration, so the clerk also used all his skills.
"I'm just looking around, do you think I can afford this price at my age?" Malfoy asked.
"We can negotiate the price, dear customer." The poor clerk had already been led away by Malfoy.
We don't know how many Galleons Malfoy used to buy the Snitch, but almost everyone in Diagon Alley heard the roar of the Quidditch boutique manager that night.
Of course, he didn't forget to bring Lucius and Narcissa a gift, a tie and some latest cosmetics.
"The book can only be bought next time." Malfoy looked at the pile of things in his hands and came to such a conclusion. The number of people in Lihen Bookstore began to increase as the school started, and he felt that it was necessary to go earlier.
Breaking into the green flames, under the influence of the Floo web, he returned home.
"This is really a mode of transportation that people love and hate." Feeling dizzy, Malfoy couldn't help but think that Lucius and his wife hadn't returned home at this time, so he put the gift in the living room and went back first own room.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw a letter lying quietly on the table. He opened the letter and it was still written by Pansy. There seems to be something wrong with the road network, the traffic is completely paralyzed, and the efficiency of the French Ministry of Magic is surprisingly slow, so the Pencey family had to stay in France.
"Maybe I will be late this semester." She wrote at the end of the letter.
"That's really bad." Malfoy wrote some comforting words as a reply and tied it on the owl's lap, but there was no solution to the problem. Most wizards are still not very comfortable with Muggle transportation, except for the Weasleys. . As for apparating, it should be a lot of work to manifest from one country to another, so there is only one way—wait.
