Harry Potter: Glory of the King

The two fairies bowed to them and led them into a tall marble hall. About a hundred or so fairies were sitting on high stools behind a long row of counters. Some used copper balances to weigh coins, and some used eyepieces to check gems, while scribbling in the large ledger. There are countless doors in the hall, leading to different places, and many fairies guide people in and out of these doors. Hagrid led everyone to the counter.

"Morning," Hagrid said to an idle goblin, "we have to do a few things—the three little guys here have to do the Muggle currency exchange, and we have to take it from Mr. Harry Potter’s vault. some money."

"Do you have his key, sir?" The goblin is obviously more interested in the vault, but anyway, Harry can naturally do currency exchange when he goes to the vault.

"Bring it." Hagrid said, taking out everything in his pocket and putting it on the counter, accidentally sprinkling a handful of moldy dog ​​biscuits on the goblin's account book. The goblin wrinkled his nose.

Whether it's Anna or Jennifer, even Glory and Hermione are staring at the goblin on the right, who is weighing a pile of rubies the size of burning coals. As for Harry, I don't know if he is looking at Ruby or Glory.

Ona, Wang Jin and William looked at the other fairies around. They noticed the exchange rate between the British pound and the Galleon today—5.1:1. In other words, 5 pounds and 10 pence a gallon. William and Wang Jin prepared the children to exchange 200 gallons each, which would be 1,020 pounds. According to Hagrid's introduction, they knew that one Gallon was equal to seventeen Sikors, and one Sikor was equal to twenty-nine Nats.

"Found it." Hagrid finally said, holding up a small golden key.

The goblin carefully checked: "There should be no problem."

"I have another letter from Professor Dumbledore here," Hagrid said solemnly, puffing up his chest. "It's about the'that thing' in the underground vault 713."

The goblin read the letter carefully.

"Very good," he said, returning the letter to Hagrid, "I'll find someone to take you to these two underground vaults. Griphook!" Griphook was another goblin.

After Hagrid put all the dog biscuits back into his inner pocket, he and Harry followed Griphook out of the hall through one of the doors.

Ona's party did not follow, the goblin turned his head: "How much are you going to exchange?"

"The exchange rate is 390 gallons, another 160 sicor, and 290 nats." Wang Jin took out 40 banknotes of 50 pounds and two 20 pounds.

"I'll take a look at the admission notice." The fairy took the banknote and two admission notices, "Yes."

After counting the banknotes, the goblin skillfully took out four bags and placed them on the counter—"Each bag is 100 gallons, which is a bit heavy. Then I took 10 of them." He opened one of the bags and took away 10 gold coins. Wang Jin took this bag, took a look, and confirmed that it was 90 gold coins, and the other three bags had been confirmed by the other three people. Seeing Wang Jin nodded, the fairy took out ten other small bags. "170 Sikors." The goblin took 10 silver coins from one of them in the same way.

Wang Jin wouldn't be too lazy to confirm this. He guessed that this kind of bag should be Gringott's standard bag, and it was a fixed number before it was opened. Then the goblin threw out another 10 purses: "I've counted it, and I'm not responsible for leaving the cabinet. Is there anything else I need?"

"I want to exchange it too, 195 Gallons, 75 Sico, and 290 Nats." William also reported the amount he needed.

"Okay." The same two gold coin bags, take 5 gold coins from them, and then five loose silver coin bags, each of which contains 17 silver coins. Take 10 silver coins from one of them, and the same 10 loose coins. Copper coin bag.

"It doesn't seem to be very easy to take." Wang Jin sighed, and he and William looked at each other, thanking him for choosing to use a backpack. William was bitter. He was carrying a handbag-a bag full of gold coins was really heavy to fit in, and Wang Jin had to carry two of them.

"Are you considering opening a vault in Gringotts?" the goblin asked with interest.

"No need for the time being." Wang Jin and William thought about it, and they communicated with their wives, and finally felt that they should wait for Ona to drive by themselves. "Thank you."

"you are welcome."

Because they were not sure about the price situation in the Wizarding World, they first gave the children one silver coin bag, two copper coin bags each, and then selected 20 gold coins as spares (50 coins taken out by Wang Jin) and gave them to each of them. Madam, and then the gentlemen each took away the remaining money bags.

"You can go to the side and wait," the goblin pointed to a door politely, seeing that the business was completed, "there is the lounge. They may not be so fast."

Sure enough, it took a while before Hagrid covered his mouth with a sullen face, and staggered out, while Harry walked with a bag in his arms.

"You don't look very good." Ona said to Harry.

"Yes," Harry feels novel about the experience just now, but the excessive speed makes him a little uncomfortable now. "Occasionally it's okay."

"It looks a bit heavy." Ona pointed to the purse he was holding.

"I didn't pay attention," Harry said honestly, "Hagrid helped me pretend it."

"Need help?" Ona shrugged.

"It's okay." Harry smiled while holding the inheritance left by his parents. "I have so much currency for the first time."

"Okay." Everyone followed Hagrid out of Gringa, the sun was dazzling. Harry was carrying a bag full of money, and of course Wang Jin too.

"We can buy the uniform first, because we need to measure the size." Hagrid pointed to Mrs. Morkin's robe specialty store. "If you don't mind, I want to have a refreshing drink at the Broken Cauldron Bar. Would you mind? Gringe’s trolley is too hateful!" He looked really bad, so they stepped into Mrs. Morkin’s robe shop on their own and left Hagrid, the guide, everyone couldn’t help but feel a little nervous...

Mrs. Morkin is a short and fat witch with a lovely smile and a purple dress. "Are you going to buy a Hogwarts school uniform, dear?" Before Wang Jin and the others could speak, she said. "There are so many of us here. To be honest, there is a young man trying on clothes in it now."

At the back of the store, a pale, thin young man was standing on the footstool, and a witch was pinning his black robe with a pin. "Which one of you will come first?"

Ona looked at it and said, "Harry, you go first."

Harry handed the purse to Ona, and then stood on the other footstool next to the young man. Mrs. Morkin put on a robe for him and pinned out the length that suits him.

"Hey," the boy said, "Is it also going to Hogwarts?"

"Yes." Harry replied.

"Are they too?" The boy glanced at his glasses, glanced past Ona and Hermione, and stayed on Glory's face.
