The Extraordinary Apothecary at Hogwarts
Chapter 4 What is it like to have a vault
After carefully checking the authenticity with a magnifying glass, the goblin turned around and counted out a pile of gold coins from the safe behind her, put them in a bag and poured them on the counter.
"Crash-"
Sissy picked up one and looked at it. According to the book, Galleons are really made of gold, but such a thick gold coin can be exchanged for less than 6 euros. Isn't Gringotts really a loss-making business?
The goblin was busy counting the coins face-to-face, but she had a bad idea, tugged at Digory's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Can this gold coin be melted and made into something else?"
Digory frowned, and replied in disbelief, "Don't think too much, every Galleon will be protected by a complex spell cast by a powerful goblin when it is cast."
"It is said that the spell not only prevents criminals from counterfeiting, but also protects the gold coins from damage—of course it also includes the smelting you mentioned, which is impossible."
Although surprised, Digory patiently explained the reason to her.
So it turns out, Sissy thought she was going to get rich overnight!
Although she was originally a young lady in the castle, Sissy is a complete fan of money, and she enjoys making money and spending it.
"Miss, the conversion of 1500 euros into 254 Galleons, 11 Sickles, and 26 Nats has all been counted. Don't worry, you can count them again."
"No need, I believe in your ability to work." Sissy really didn't need to worry about the fairies making a wrong count.
The big question before her is: How can she carry the two hundred real coins in front of her?
Haven't they thought about researching advanced mobile payments, or at least...printing some banknotes is fine!
Too much money is an annoyance. Cici, who has not touched cash twice in several years, suddenly has to carry such a heavy thing to go shopping.
It's outrageous, and the store will give her some change later. One silver Sickle is equivalent to 29 copper Knuts, which is heavier.
"Sir, I really can't afford so much money. Is there any way?" Sissy thought that the experienced elf should have a solution.
"It is recommended that you open a wizard account. You only need to deposit 100 Galleons for free. Our underground vault can be said to be the safest place besides Hogwarts."
As soon as the goblin heard that the performance was delivered to the door, she hurriedly introduced it enthusiastically, and then winked at the little goblin beside her.
The little goblin rushed to move two stools, one tall and one short, and asked them to sit down.
"Do I need to sign the application form?" Sissy felt that the process of Wizard Bank is similar.
"Oh, yes, miss, I need to trouble you..." The goblin respectfully handed over the pen and paper and was about to continue, when his gaze caught sight of the ring on Sissy's left hand, he froze again.
"Wait a moment, can I have a look at this ring?"
"Sure, this is left by my great-grandfather." As soon as Sissy took off the small silver ring from her index finger, the ring returned to its original large and bulky appearance.
The goblin tried to test it with magic power, and a blue eagle appeared faintly on the ring.
The goblin turned pale with fright, and carefully returned the ring to Sissy, as if she was holding a precious object that would break if touched.
"Please follow me." The goblin led them to the top of the hall, and whispered a few words to the head hobgoblin solemnly.
The hobgoblin personally tested Sissy's ring, which also had the same pattern of a blue eagle. He said to himself, "Finally, it has appeared again, the descendant of Ravenclaw."
"You have inherited Ravenclaw's treasury. It is under our strictest guard in the quartz cave 2000 meters underground. Do you need to take something?" The hobgoblin asked respectfully.
Sissy knew that the ring was an ancestral treasure, but she didn't expect it to have such a big background. She was allowed to inherit Ravenclaw's treasury as soon as she entered school.
"No... I don't need it today, I just want to save some money and go shopping nearby." Although I am very curious, let's stop here when I am in a hurry to buy school supplies today, and I will have a chance to come over in the future.
Then the hobgoblin deposited all the magic currency that had just been exchanged and told her how to use the ring. With this ring, accessing cash does not need to be as troublesome as others.
Only the magic of a Ravenclaw heir can open the ring's enchantment.
Sissy only needs to gather a little magic power at her fingertips, and then silently say in her heart: take out 10 Galleons.Gold coins can reach her in an instant through a special magic barrier, and the same goes for saving money.
At present, she can only use the ring to deposit and withdraw currency. As the magic power grows, the items available for deposit and withdrawal will naturally vary.
Sissy tugged on Diggory's sleeve, "This is amazing, senior. It's the first time I've encountered such an interesting thing."
"Uh... It's also the first time I've seen it. Since it's a precious thing, you must take good care of it and don't lose it." If Diggory didn't remind her, she might fly to the sky with joy.
Fortunately, it was Diggory who accompanied her, and there was no risk in letting him know the secret.
This ring will still be of great use in the future, with its help, maybe something can really be changed.
When the two walked out of Gringotts, the bustling Diagon Alley outside was completely different from the atmosphere of Gringotts.
"Where should I go first?" Although Sissy wanted to go directly to Ollivander to choose a wand, such an arrangement might not be reasonable, after all, the time in the afternoon was limited.
Diggory lowered his head and thought for a while, "Go to Madam Malkin's robe store, the school uniforms are all tailor-made, and they will take time to make after you measure the data, so we won't waste time buying other things .”
Very reasonable arrangement.
Madam Malkin's shop is not as flashy as you might expect from most clothing stores.
Pushing open the shop door, the hanging bell made a pleasant sound, and a short, fat, kind-faced witch heard the sound and stood up to greet her.
A lavender robe is surprisingly decent on this lady and doesn't make her look fat.
From this point of view, the layout design of this store must have unique features.
"Honey, are you an international student at Hogwarts?" Sissy was about to respond, but Mrs. Malkin went on to introduce the styles in the store, "Here you can always pick your favorite school robes, everyone who comes here Students are no exception."
Mrs. Malkin asked Sissy to relax and breathe and stand straight in front of the dressing mirror. With a flexible wave of the magic wand in her hand, three rolls of soft ruler flew from the shelf and quickly wrapped around Sissy's back.
Before she could react, the measurement was over.Madam Malkin wrote down the data and put it on the counter.
"Honey, your name? I can put a name tag on the inside, so that some daredevil won't take your clothes by mistake in the future."
"Eugenie, Eugenie Ravenclaw."
"Oh, Merlin's long johns," Madam Malkin opened her mouth into an "O" in surprise, "you are a descendant of Ravenclaw."
"It's very lively now. I heard that the legendary Harry Potter who killed that... the mysterious man will also report to Hogwarts this year."
The next days at Hogwarts are destined to be extraordinary.
"Crash-"
