Hogwarts Collector, I cast a spell with the Eye of God - Chapter 139
“No, no, we have to go to Madam Malkin right now!” Hermione hurriedly covered the hem of her robe with her hands, her face flushed, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.
Ye Ting snapped his fingers, and the hem of the girl’s robe magically extended a few centimeters. Hermione was slightly relieved.
Then, Ye Ting reminded:”The distance from here to the gold shop is almost the same as that to Diagon Alley. Instead of going to Diagon Alley, it is better to make a quick decision and exchange the silver first.”
“But… my clothes……”Hermione’s cheeks felt like they were on fire, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito.
“Don’t worry, I promise your robes are well covered, no one can see anything.-”
Ye Ting pretended to withdraw his gaze, cast an illusion magic on her robe, and then said,”After we exchange the silver, we can go to Diagon Alley to buy new clothes. It won’t be too late.”
“What else do you want to see? You’d better start thinking about how to make it up to me now!”
Hermione was a little angry, but she moved with a soft pace that was completely different from her tone, which looked quite funny.
“Can’t you walk faster?” Ye Ting urged helplessly.
“”No!” Hermione was trying to maintain her balance, and she was complaining in her heart.
On the one hand, she had to be careful not to lift the hem of her clothes, otherwise she would definitely expose herself in front of the boy; on the other hand, she had never realized that the two golden snitches on her chest would grow into swollen”wandering balls” and actually sway left and right with her steps, as if they had their own rhythm.
Ye Ting’s eyes were also involuntarily attracted by the rhythm, left and right, left and right.……
“You are quite good at looking. Can you come in front of me?” Hermione’s voice was a little tired.
“I’m just worried that you might fall, how about I help you walk?” Ye Ting’s dynamic vision was beyond ordinary people, and he easily followed the swinging rhythm of the Bludger.
“Get ahead and clear the way!” Hermione turned around angrily.
“Watch the road carefully.” Ye Ting chuckled and walked to the front obediently.
However, what you fear will come true. Hermione’s center of gravity was originally raised because of the magnificent sight on her chest, and she was very uncomfortable.
In addition, she had been pressing the hem of her clothes with her hands, and as a result, she lost her balance the moment she turned her head, and her body fell forward involuntarily.
Ye Ting reacted quickly, flew forward, and successfully caught Hermione before she was about to have an”intimate contact” with the ground. Unfortunately, the posture was not right, and his nose seemed to hit two volleyballs, and the whole person sank in.
In the end, Hermione compromised with a red face, allowing Ye Ting to support her and step by step into the gold shop in East London.
The store manager was very surprised that the two exchanged several hundred grams of gold for dozens of kilograms of silver.
However, he knew very well that in this place, if he wanted to stay afloat, the most important thing was to keep his mouth shut and not to pry into other people’s secrets easily.
Moreover, the insurance certificate presented by the lady undoubtedly showed that they had enough financial resources to support the transaction. Since Hermione looked similar enough to her mother after taking the aging agent, the two used Mrs. Granger’s identity and easily got away with it.
Although the manager did not ask much, the hooligans wandering on the street, like sharks smelling blood, keenly captured the”fat couple”.
The main reason was that they were neatly dressed and had outstanding temperament, and were obviously students from a famous university.
For the gangsters, not investigating the details of these two people would be an insult to their careers. What
‘s more, the two were sent out by the gold shop manager himself, which was undoubtedly a clear sign, showing their distinguished status in this gold shop.
The big customers of the gold shop were undoubtedly walking ATMs for these gangsters.
So, several scoundrels instantly dispersed and walked to the two people.
They were far apart from each other, seemingly without any rules, but in fact there was a mystery.
Some people detoured to the front to intercept, and some people Following closely behind, it was like an invisible net that spread out quietly.
These people were obviously not doing this for the first time.
Ye Ting, who should have been perceptive, did not notice anything unusual because something had obviously blinded his eyes.
To be honest, Ye Ting’s previous judgment of Hermione was correct. When she grew up, she not only looked better than her mother, but her figure as well. In addition, she was only wearing a coat, which was really eye-catching.
This directly led to the fact that he was not aware of several malicious eyes following him until someone approached him within five meters.
He immediately pulled Hermione up, and quickly turned into a dark and remote alley.
“What do you want to do?” Although Hermione was nervous, she still ran after Ye Ting in a panic because of her trust in him. However, the intense exercise made her shaking even more exaggerated.
“I want to, but now is not the time, we are being targeted.”Ye Ting said in a low voice with a serious expression
“Then why don’t we run to crowded places, but instead go into this remote alley?” Hermione didn’t have time to correct Ye Ting’s”speech error” and asked quickly.
But Ye Ting was even more puzzled:”Why do we want to escape?”
“However, if someone sees us casting a spell, we will be in big trouble.” Hermione warned
“Don’t worry, I can fight without relying on spells.”Ye Ting decided to show her what a melee mage is.
The power given to him by the Eye of God is not to be underestimated.
He raised his hand leisurely, put on the hood of his robe, and gently pulled it to make sure his face was covered more tightly.
At this moment, the gangsters who were chasing and blocking him also rushed over like a shadow.
“Hehe, I hope you have enough money on you, otherwise I won’t show mercy.”The black-faced man in the lead grinned humorously.
“Girl, just���Unbutton your clothes obediently, and I promise to be gentle with you.”A bald thug stared greedily at Hermione’s quiet and delicate face, obviously having forgotten his original intention.
Ye Ting smiled indifferently, slowly reached into his arms, and then took out a golden… mace!
“Damn! How did you hide such a big mace in your clothes? Is it a magic trick?”The black-faced man widened his eyes, thinking he had seen a ghost.
How could a person hide such a thick stick in his clothes – even thicker than his waist!
This is certainly not a magic trick, not even the magic of this world, but the [Ghost King Gold Shattering Stick] of Ara Taki Ito.
Ye Ting did not give them any response. His eyes were stern, and his figure rushed out like an arrow from a bow.
His first target was not the black-faced man who led the group, but the bald gangster who spoke rudely.
“Unbutton, right?”Ye Ting’s voice was as cold as a knife.
He held a mace thicker than his waist and smashed it fiercely at the bald man with a whirring sound.
“”Bang!” With a dull sound, the bald man fell to the ground like a rag doll hit by a huge hammer, and blood spurted out like a fountain.
This was the result of Ye Ting’s restraint at the last moment.
The other hooligans were all stunned when they saw this.
They never thought that the two young men who looked like well-behaved students would dare to resist so fiercely – there were seven or eight strong men on their side.
They would be stunned, but Ye Ting would not
“Following us, right?”
He flashed and swung his stick fiercely, knocking down another person.
“”Robbery, right?”
A thug waved his baton to try to parry, but the Ghost King Gold Crushing Stick in Ye Ting’s hand was so heavy that the huge force not only broke the baton, but also broke the thug’s arm, and finally hit the opponent’s shoulder heavily.
With a crisp sound of fracture, the thug fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string.
“You want to use a knife, right?”
Then, Ye Ting turned around and swept fiercely, not only blocking a knife thrown by one person, but also almost at the same time, sweeping another gangster with the golden stick. The black-faced man was also a tough guy who had followed the Kray brothers in the past. Although Ye Ting’s fighting power was amazing, he was not panicked.
He waved his hand and shouted,”Everyone come together, he is alone!”
The remaining gangsters shrank their bodies and pounced on him like hungry tigers, one of them holding a small knife that flashed with cold light in his hand.
“”Besiege, right?”
They rushed forward quickly, but rolled back even faster.
Ye Ting just swept them horizontally, like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, knocking them all down, and rolling back like gourds.
His strength far beyond that of ordinary people was simply not something these ordinary hooligans could stop.
Hermione was stunned watching from behind. Was this really the usual easy-going Ye Ting? (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
In Hermione’s little notebook, Ye Ting’s information was updated again. This boy was not only good at magic, but also good at hand-to-hand combat.
Within three minutes, the originally arrogant���The domineering hooligans lay on the ground – and Ye Ting did not use even a single magic.
This kind of record does not look like something a wizard can have.
The appearance of these people was just a small episode.
Ye Ting brought Hermione to Diagon Alley quickly. They did not go to Gringotts first, but went to Madam Malkin’s robe store first.
Here, Ye Ting bought several sets of beautiful robes for Hermione as compensation.
Of course, Hermione also bought a lot of underwear, and did not show Ye Ting any of them, but asked him to pay for them all.
Since they entered the store, Madam Malkin has been staring at the two with strange eyes.
As an old tailor, she could see at a glance that Hermione’s clothes were not ordinary, but out of professional ethics, she did not say it out loud.
I just think that these two people are playing some strange games.
Hermione didn’t realize at all that what she thought was a secret had unknowingly gained an insider.
Fortunately, they are still in the state of aging.
After finally satisfying the girl’s shopping desire, the two went to Gringotts.
Here, Ye Ting, as an adult wizard, exchanged all the silver for gold Galleons, a total of several thousand.
The good thing about Gringotts is that transactions do not require identity proof.
This time, he made almost ten times the money.
Next, they went shopping in Diagon Alley until the sky was stained with the evening twilight, and then returned to Hermione’s house with a full load.
Mrs. Granger opened the door for them with a smile, but was surprised to see her daughter running upstairs at a speed that she thought was really not”ladylike”.
Hermione once told her that witches were less afraid of physical damage, but Mrs. Granger never believed it.
At this time, she also shook her head, muttering to herself: Since entering Hogwarts, this girl has become more and more naughty.
But suddenly, Mrs. Granger had an ominous premonition in her heart, and she keenly captured the real reason why her daughter ran into the room.
Her eyes fell on Hermione’s pants.
Although it was very similar to the one she wore when she went out in the morning, she could confirm that it was definitely not the same one!
Mrs. Granger’s heart suddenly started to ring with alarm bells. She realized that a”close conversation” between mother and daughter was imminent.
She decided to tell her daughter immediately how women should protect themselves and how to maintain innocence in this world full of temptations and dangers.
Ye Ting looked like a good child, but she didn’t want to become a grandmother so soon!
In the next few days, the same exchange transaction was staged twice more.
Ye Ting maintained considerable restraint and did not use all the Galleons he had just obtained to buy silver.
The amount of silver he bought each time was similar to the first day. In total, he exchanged less than 30,000 Galleons in Gringotts for three days.
In fact, according to the ideal situation, if he melted all the gold Galleons to buy silver in the Muggle world for each arbitrage transaction, and then exchanged all the silver for gold Galleons in the magic world, he could even get millions of Galleons after three transactions.
But in fact, this is impossible.
Because the British magic world is so big.
There are only tens of thousands of wizards in the whole of Britain. How many Sickles can these people spend?
In particular, Sickles are sandwiched between Galleons and Copper Knuts. The former is needed for large-scale transactions, while the latter is used to buy cheap goods and make change for a long time. Both have great demand for use. On the contrary, the silver Sickle is sandwiched in the middle, neither up nor down, and the demand for use is not that great.
This kind of thing is very clear by referring to the currency of Muggles.
Take China’s fourth set of RMB as an example.
In the fourth set of RMB, 10 cents, 20 cents, 50 cents, and 1 yuan banknotes were issued 32.6 billion, 21 billion, 23.4 billion, and 55.9 billion respectively – this is equivalent to the circulation of Copper Knuts. The slightly larger 5 yuan and 10 yuan banknotes were issued 18.8 billion and 38 billion respectively – which can be used to compare with silver Sickles.
The largest 50 yuan and 100 yuan banknotes were issued 184 and 20.5 billion respectively – which can be used to compare with gold Galleons.
The above currencies were not all issued at the same time, but were issued cumulatively.
Taking into account the depreciation and reprinting of the currency, the actual circulation of the currency in the market is far less than the issuance figure.
In other words, on average, each person only needs about 20 low-denomination currencies and 10 high-denomination currencies to circulate in the world.
This situation also applies to other countries.
This is the result of the Muggle commodity economy being more developed than the wizarding society.
With the small population of the British wizarding society, an average of tens of Sickles per person is enough for circulation.
If the silver worth millions of Galleons were all made into Sickles, the number of silver Sickles on the market would have to double! With such a large amount of silver, even if Ye Ting was brave enough to take it out, Gringotts might not dare to accept it, and it would end up being stuck in his hands.
In fact, after Ye Ting’s three trips, the silver exchanged could slightly affect the financial situation of the British wizarding world.
He could sense that when he came to exchange silver for Galleons for the third time, the goblins in Gringotts looked at him with vigilance.
After they left Gringotts, they were almost followed.
Therefore, Ye Ting decided to quit while he was ahead.
Anyway, more than 20,000 Galleons were enough for him to use for a long time.
Next, he just needed to think about turning part of the money into a reproducible industry, and he would basically never be short of money in the future.
The Kray brothers were legendary underworld tycoons in the UK. Their name was once a taboo for London gangsters. When referring to them, people used”that person” instead.J.K.Rowling once revealed that the character Voldemort, who was called”You-Know-Who” by wizards, was inspired by the Kray brothers.
