Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 28: Jin Jialong is not a gold coin (thanks to everyone who supports me)

After paying two fifty pounds as a consulting fee, the process of Elena ’s exchange for gold gallon was unexpected.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Fairy Serkins completed a series of tedious tasks for Elena, including information registration, account opening, currency exchange, etc., and sent cloth bags full of coins to Silver Hair In front of little loli.

By the way, in addition to most of Jin Jialong, Serkins also carefully arranged a certain proportion of Yin Xike and Tong Nat for Elena to facilitate her shopping trip.

"So this is Jin Jialong, and the workmanship is very good."

Elena curiously picked up a gold coin and looked at it carefully. It is not too big in terms of size. It is only about half a circle larger than the previous dollar coin.

The front of the gold coin is printed with an abstract fire dragon logo, and the edge is a circle of numbers. That is the number engraved by the Gulingge Mint Fairy and the number of the Mint Genie.

"However, this weight and texture ... seems a bit wrong?"

At the next moment, the girl picked up the gold coin in her hand, and her fingernails swiped on the surface of the gold coin with a little force-the light flickering coin still had the gloss without any depressions or scratches.

Elena raised her eyebrows, no doubt, no matter in terms of weight or texture, this gleaming Gallon will definitely not be a gold coin directly cast by natural gold.

As a fan of the Harry Potter series and a master of quantitative economics in the past life, Elena once explored a very interesting question with many people in a group of book fans [862-074-819] .

As the first country to implement the gold coin standard, even after entering the credit standard (that is, the paper currency standard) monetary system, gold still has a significant influence on the British economic system.

And the gold world of the magic world is undoubtedly the biggest challenge for the new credit standard currency.

That is, once Jin Jialong puts aside the currency attribute, the actual value assigned to it is higher than its exchange value, then it will be a catastrophic economic crash for both worlds.

In 1991, where Elena was now, the price of an ounce of gold was $ 360.75, which is about 8.68 pounds per gram of gold.

Know that the weight of a dollar-coated nickel coin with a steel core is about 6 grams, and the weight of pure gold of the same volume is about 15.7 grams. Well, it is worth 136 pounds.

However, the goblins of Gu Ling Pavilion used the exchange rate: one gold gallon equals five pounds!

To explain more plainly, if a gold gallon is smelted into gold, the price it can sell is much higher than the currency price it needs to pay in exchange for it, the gold reserves of the magic world will first show A cliff-like decline followed by a currency exchange blockade until all exchange channels with the Muggle world were completely closed.

In short, under the contradictory constraints of purchasing power and exchange rate, if the fairies and the magic world want to continue to maintain a normal financial system, only one conclusion is finally reached-large-scale issuance of bad coins.

Therefore, the current [Jin Jialong] is not a [gold coin], at most it is a magic currency cast with an alloy of a small amount of gold and cheap metals.

In this way, by the way, it perfectly explains that in the original "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", Fudge, then the Minister of Magic, with one hand threw a thousand gold gallon bonus to Harry Potter, so incredible Things, that is close to 80 kg in weight!

"Excuse me ... Dear Miss Elena, what's wrong with this gold gallon?"

Andy Serkins asked a little nervously.

Since the generous little human girl got Jin Jialong, it was like a stunned man. He spent only five gold coins back and forth for nearly five minutes, even for the most obsessed goblin.

"Oh, nothing. Just suddenly thought of something else."

Elena who shook her head shook her head without answering. She flicked her finger gently and dexterously put Jin Jialong at her fingertips in a small cloth bag around her waist.

"So Professor Dumbledore, where are we going next?"

"Well ... the next step is of course to go to Diagon Alley to prepare all the school supplies you need. Let me see it first."

Dumbledore took out a piece of parchment paper with some ink stains on his back, pushed his glasses, carefully read the items listed in the above Solo, and said softly: "Uniforms, books, wands, class tools , And in addition, students can bring a ... cough, I roughly know. "

The old wizard was thinking about it, and suddenly coughed strangely, before Elena could see the contents of the parchment in his hand, and quickly folded the list back into her arms.

"First of all, I will buy you a uniform. From a personal point of view, I recommend Madam Mokin Robe Store."

Dumbledore smiled gently, and could not help but take Elena's little hand and walked towards the gate of the Guling Pavilion.

Do n’t know why, Dumbledore had an ominous premonition just now. It seems that if he continues to stay with Elena in Gu Ling Pavilion, something more troublesome may happen.

"Wait, Professor Dumbledore, did you intentionally omit something?"

Standing on the sunny commercial street outside Gu Ling Pavilion, Elena stared at Dumbledore with some dissatisfaction.

If she remembers correctly, at the end of the list of each freshman's start of school, it should be specially stated that students can bring an owl or a cat or a toad as a pet.

"Are you there? You may have misheard. As the principal of Hogwarts, I am sure that you need these school supplies for Elena."

Dumbledore blinked in confusion, explaining to the little silver-haired Loli seriously, sincerely, if not because Elena had read the original at least ten times, he was almost fooled by him.

"Pets! Every little wizard can bring a pet into Hogwarts! I saw the list on the second page with Father Benitez last night. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Professor Dumbledore, how can you do this! "

Elena bulged her cheeks and shook Dumbledore's hand away angrily. She wasn't a demon. As for the chance to keep only small pets, should she try to take them away?

"Hmm ... is that true? It turned out that this ink just blocked the content behind. By the way, what flavor of ice cream do you want to eat?"

Dumbledore took out the parchment with a surprised look, opened it with a pretentious look, and revealed a look of sudden enlightenment, and suddenly stiffened the topic and asked.

Ha ha--

Is here again.

Silver-haired Loli rolled her eyes and ignored Dumbledore. She walked into the shop of Mrs. Mokin's robe beside the street.

For this kind of unscrupulous old wizard who can't even find excuses, if it is not because the combat power is too disparate, Elena even plans to bald his beard directly.

Swaying back and forth in the door of the clothing store, the voice of the girl was heard.

"... chocolate flavor, and strawberry flavor. It is best to add a bit of crushed nuts on top of that."

(The following content has nothing to do with the text)

嘤 嘤 嘤, four o'clock in the morning, finally abide by the agreement, the code is over.

Originally wrote more than 1,000 words at 2 o'clock and wanted to sleep. Suddenly, I saw the starting point of 150,000 yuan that the naughty king rewarded. I realized that there are so many people who may be waiting for my update.

So I washed my face with cold water and continued to write this chapter.

Maybe this chapter is a bit dry, but every word is well written. There is no ingredient for irrigation, so readers, for the sake of such a sly attitude, forgive me for being so late.
