Chapter 318 The End and the Beginning
Wentworth looked at Lockhart who was standing in front of him with a flattering smile, and said angrily:
"I hope you can give me a reason enough to sacrifice my sleep, otherwise..."
Before Wentworth finished speaking, Lockhart hurriedly took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Wentworth, and said:
"A letter from Auston Greengrass, everything is ready, our bank is ready to open!"
Hearing Lockhart's words, Wentworth also said in surprise while receiving Auston's letter:
"So fast? They are very efficient!"
Lockhart smiled and said:
"Under the connection of Lucius, the British Ministry of Magic gave the green light, and we are even more Sagalonian, so the speed is naturally faster!"
Wentworth read Auston's letter carefully, and it stated in the letter that the location of the bank was also chosen in Diagon Alley, and that it was higher and bigger than Gringotts, and that Fudge had agreed to transfer the British Ministry of Magic to the bank. Funds, transferred from Gringotts to the newly opened Central Bank of the Wizarding World.
At the same time, Lockhart leaned closer to Wentworth's ear and said softly:
"little Master……"
But as soon as Lockhart opened his mouth, Wentworth frowned, looked at Lockhart and said:
"Who told you to call me that?!"
Lockhart licked his face and said:
"Auston and they all call you that, I think, I should too..."
But before Lockhart could finish speaking, Wentworth interrupted him again, and said angrily:
"I don't want you to think, I want me to think! Want to join the voodoo party? Prove your worth first!"
Afterwards, Wentworth returned the letter to Lockhart casually, turned and left, and Lockhart hurriedly followed behind Wentworth, asking:
"Auston also asked me to ask you, you at the opening ceremony..."
Wentworth waved his hand and said first:
"No, I'm a good student at Hogwarts. Studying makes me happy. Just deal with such trivial matters!"
Hearing Wentworth's words, Lockhart nodded again and again, which was exactly what he wanted. After all, if Wentworth really went, would it be his turn to be in the limelight?
But after walking more than ten meters, Wentworth found that Lockhart was still following him. Wentworth stopped involuntarily, and said angrily:
"What else is there?"
Lockhart quickly said with a flattering smile:
"Well, little master, if I really want to be the governor of the central bank of the wizarding world, then Hogwarts..."
Wentworth curled his lips in disdain, and said:
"You can go at ease, everyone will definitely report a grand farewell party for you!"
Hearing Wentworth's words, Lockhart immediately said happily:
"Hey...how can you be so embarrassing! Haha..."
And the fact is indeed as Wentworth said, when the news came that Lockhart was about to leave Hogwarts and go to Diagon Alley to serve as the governor of the central bank of the wizarding world, the whole Hogwarts fell into a turmoil. A sea of joy, it can be seen that everyone has been suffering for a long time.
And after Dumbledore expressed regret, he didn't ask to stay at all, and immediately announced that he would hold a farewell dinner for Lockhart.
And shortly after Lockhart left,
The "Daily Prophet" brought the news of the opening of the central bank of the wizarding world, and Lockhart was still showing his iconic smile in the photo.
Subsequently, Lockhart gave full play to his packaging and marketing talents, and the central bank of the wizarding world quickly became the hottest topic in the wizarding world.
When the first person handled the seven-day short-term deposit business and received the first interest from the central bank of the wizarding world, the entire conservative wizarding world boiled instantly!
The wizards found out that they put Gallon in the central bank of the wizarding world. Not only did they not accept money, but they also gave money to themselves!
This made the wizards who were used to paying to keep their property in Gringotts choose to take out the Galleons in Gringotts and deposit them in the central bank of the wizarding world.
If it weren't for the fact that Gringotts seldom provides loan services, I am afraid that Gringotts will be at risk of a run at this moment.
Even so, Gringotts' income has also been greatly affected due to the sharp reduction in wizards saving money.
At this time, in the secret prison of Gringotts, the Elder Elder Gringotts, the goblin, told Raphael who was imprisoned here expressionlessly, about the recent changes.
After listening to the Great Elder's narration, Raphael looked up to the sky and sighed:
"They... are planning to uproot Gringotts!"
A trace of remorse crossed the face of the goblin elder, but it disappeared in a flash, and then said to Raphael:
"Is there anything you can do?"
Raphael nodded heavily, and said:
"Yes! There is only one way!"
Hearing that Raphael really had a solution, the elder goblin was taken aback for a moment, and then asked quickly.
And Raphael looked into the eyes of the goblin elder, and said word by word:
"The best way is to join if you can't beat it! We can also learn from the central bank of the magical world..."
However, before Raphael finished speaking, he was flatly rejected by the goblin elder:
"It's impossible! How can Gringotts' thousands of years of tradition be broken so easily? In history, there will occasionally be people who want to challenge Gringotts, but after so many years, they have all disappeared into history In the long river, but Gringotts will last forever!"
Hearing the elder's words, Raphael sighed and shook his head, and said:
"Times have changed, Great Elder, now..."
However, before Raphael could speak to persuade him, the Great Elf Elf waved his hand and said in his mouth:
"Stop talking! We are in Hogsmeade now, and we have already made some discoveries. When we find what we want, these will not be a problem!"
After finishing speaking, the goblin elder left with great strides.
At this time, Raphael had a surprised expression on his face, and then, watching the back of the Great Elder leaving, Raphael growled and said:
"Great Elder! You can't do that, Great Elder! You are leading us goblins to our own death, Great Elder!"
However, no matter how Raphael shouted, only his voice could be heard echoing in the dark world.
At this time, Wentworth, who had finally finished his third semester, was happily packing his things and preparing to take the Hogwarts special train back to London.
At this moment, Dumbledore walked into Wentworth's bedroom and said:
"Wentworth, is everything packed?"
Seeing that it was Dumbledore, Wentworth immediately said very respectfully:
"It's almost packed, principal, so we won't delay the departure time."
Hearing Wentworth's answer, Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction, and continued:
"Remember to bring more thick clothes, it's colder there!"
Wentworth: "Don't worry, Headmaster, I'll... wait a minute... Headmaster Dumbledore, I'm going back to London... right?"
Dumbledore stared wide-eyed, looked at Wentworth and said:
"Didn't I tell you that I'm taking you to Austria?"
