Chapter 1167 ?
There was a knock on the door of the governor's office on the top floor of Gringotts in Frankfurt, Germany, loudly and even impolitely.
"Please come in..." The goblin president Alma, who was sitting behind the large desk, responded, only to find that the door was opened before he could speak.
A tall, fat man wearing the uniform of a senior official of the German Ministry of Magic walked in with such a familiar stride. The uniform on his body seemed to be custom-made, and the fairy Yalma could easily judge this from some of the accessories on it. The uniforms can even be considered extravagant.
The fat man sat directly on the chair in front of the goblins, and he also observed Kia Alma - the suit worn by the president was more formal than the official of the German Ministry of Magic in front of him. After all, even according to the goblins, Yarma Erma can also be called thin, which also makes him have a pale and intelligent face, which is the result of staying in an office without sunlight all year round. He has neatly combed hair in the middle and a mustache on his mouth. It looked even darker against its complexion and its white shirt.
"Please wait a moment, Mr. Goring, I can finish writing this letter soon." Halma shook his pointed beard, held a quill pen in his extra-long hand, and quickly scribbled on the paper. swipe.
"Don't worry, I have no other plans tonight." Herman stood up straight away, walked to the locker in the office by himself, took out a bottle of beer from it and drank it, but noticed the goblin with sneaky eyes The winged eagle emblem on the letterhead with the stars and stripes as the eagle body, which is the emblem of the Magical Congress of the United States.
Finally, the goblin sealed the envelope, slipped it into a pipe running up from the floor beside his desk, and let it slide downstairs.
"I'm sorry, Director Goring... this letter is quite urgent." The goblin apologized without apology. He saw the fat man nod in response, so he jumped off the chair and went to get a bottle of beer, and then called Goring to the side. "Then, does Director Goring need any services from Gringotts? Or is there someone below who is ignorant and annoyed your family?"
Goering put the beer bottle on the coffee table and said directly: "Yalma, I need you to provide me with Galleons, a lot of Galleons..."
"Loan? Director Goring, I'm sorry, there is no such business in Gringotts in Germany..." The goblin's mustache trembled, and the black eyes without whites gleamed, "but you may be able to go to Hogwarts in England Harris Bank, I hear they've been doing well lately."
"Loan? No, no... it's a political contribution... Besides, if I want to go to Harris for a loan, I don't have to go to the UK anymore. That Hogwarts is going to Germany soon. In a few days, maybe I can look up and see It." Herman muttered, "Stop tempting, let's talk straight, Halma, just as you think, I came here to fight against the floating city."
"I can understand,
Everything in the sky is up to you...but the goblin has no business with wizards..." The goblin stretched out his two hands, "You see, we are not allowed to use wands, we can't do anything about it. "
"It's impossible, don't even think about it, don't say that this is not what I can say in Germany, even if we pass through other countries, we won't give you this permission." Goering flatly rejected the goblin's hint, "and I You only need to provide Galleons and you don't need to participate in the war."
Yalma didn't show any disappointment after being rejected, he said directly: "Then why do we provide you with this funding?"
"Because this is against Harris. If we succeed in the end, we will ask that wizarding bank to close." Green took out a pipe from his bag and lit it for himself.
The short goblin fearlessly looked at the tall giant in front of him: "After the cooperation between Britain and Muggles? Director Goring...Let me be straight...I don't think you have any chance of winning now, so Ge Director Lin, what exactly do you want to do?"
"We can't make the floating city, but Germany needs to have its own floating ship." Herman shook the soot, "The Department of Magical Transportation doesn't even have a few flying cars now, this needs to be changed, Harris' floating city is more It's getting closer, I don't think Heinrich's people can stop them from approaching, but it will also make me lose face, I need to get something to give the public confidence after the incident, I think it will make the German magic world also It's a good idea to have lots of magic ships."
Halma also glanced at the somewhat arrogant fat man in front of him. He knew that although Goering looked delusional and conceited on the surface and sometimes even looked like a clown, he was actually capable, smart and cunning. As a former Quidditch star , He has the essence of many heroes and villains in him, and he is a character who combines many contradictions, so he doesn't believe that the fat man in front of him is really asking for financial assistance from himself just for this stupid face problem-although according to him There is indeed such a possibility for the usual performance of great joy.
"It does sound exciting." Halma echoed without sincerity, "But I think Director Goring should understand the rules of goblins... everything must be paid, and our help cannot be free "The goblin's long fingers tapped the armrest of the chair, "Then what can I get by funding your plan?"
"It depends on what you need. As the director of the Department of Magical Transportation, I can think about things within the scope of my duties." Herman picked up the beer in his hand and leaned back.
"I really don't worry about money... Department of Magical Transportation... what can I use it for?" The goblin sat on a chair and raised her legs high, then changed the topic after a while, "I have a fireplace, but I hope it can be more Be free and private..."
Herman frowned. He also knew the nature of goblins. They were insatiable. If they wanted such an unmonitored Floo network, smuggling and illegal immigration would become very easy.
"Director, it's less risky than building a fireplace yourself, isn't it? If something goes wrong, you can easily blame it." The goblin looked at Herman with frowning meaningfully, "said Get up, before you, a colleague of yours also approached me, and he also tried to ask me for some political donations... I promised him."
Herman didn't speak, he just looked at the goblin intently.
Halma shrugged, got up with short legs and walked towards his desk, watching Herman playfully opened a drawer with his long fingers, took out a contract from it, and put it on the coffee table On the floor, the goblin's finger tapped twice on the contract.
"Heinrich?" Herman opened the private contract.
The goblin folded her arms in a leisurely way, shook her sharp ears indifferently, and looked at Herman with a gloomy face, "Of course, it's best if we don't leave a contract in our deal..."
Herman pressed the contract back on the desk, as if the contract was very heavy, "Where is your fireplace?"
"Follow me to Herman...let's go out first." The goblin stood up, straightened her suit, and extended her hand to invite Herman, "I'll take you there personally. Less is better, isn't it..."
The giant wizards and goblins walked out of the office and went down a narrow staircase. At this time, in the Gringotts lobby, there were long queues in front of the various counters of the bank. Many wizards brought Some pockets and boxes stretched their necks anxiously to check the progress of the process.
"Thanks to Heinrich and his men, mysterious people have been frequenting recently, making wizards want to deposit their money in Gringotts, which is the safest place in the world." Alma the goblin looked at it with satisfaction. The excitement of Gringotts, and then Herman, who did not make a sound, walked out of the bank gate and left the commercial street.
