Chapter 6: Withdraw Money From Gringotts, Win Money and Win Money
Along the way to Gringotts, Cole entered and looked at the goblin with sharp teeth. He felt a sense of disgust in his heart, primarily due to the greed in the goblin's eyes, which made Cole very unhappy. Cole couldn't understand why, even though the wizards had won the previous goblin rebellion, they still handed over the economic lifeline bank to the goblins. The wizards in the Harry Potter world seemed mentally ill to him. They compensated after winning, and the British wizards appeared more exploitable than Muggles.
"Hello sir, do you have any business that I need to handle?" The goblin's sharp voice sounded, and Cole replied slowly, "Withdraw the money, it belongs to the Black family." He then took out the family medal, which he had obtained from Kreacher. He wondered if Mrs. Black would go crazy if she knew about it. The goblin held it in his hand and examined it for a long time, saying, "Follow me."
Cole followed the goblin underground, where the sensation of the mine cart was quite unpleasant, and they soon reached a modest, brown door. The goblin pressed the badge he was holding, which instantly transformed into a key. He took out another key from his backpack, and the two merged to open the vault. As it opened, the golden light was almost blinding. The goblin stepped aside silently.
Inside, Cole saw that most of the nearly 100-meter-long warehouse was filled with gold galleons. The rest consisted of various magic potions, materials for magical creatures, elixirs, invisibility potions, and Buffy's Brain Refreshing Potions. These items, which could cost thousands of galleons in the outside world, were lying in the Black family's treasury. However, there was still a lot of open space, and Cole guessed that Sirius, a prodigal son, had used his gold to support the Order of the Phoenix.
Cole wasted no time opening the wallet, grateful that it had ample space. He discreetly transferred the gold galleons into the system space, fulfilling his primary purpose for coming. Once he had almost finished, Cole stopped. There were already 40,000 gold galleons in the system, and his money bag was full. Only one corner of the pile of gold galleons was missing, which didn't affect the splendor of the treasury at all.
As Cole exited, the goblin locked the vault door, handed the medal key back to Cole, and they went up in the mine cart. "Sir, it's done. Is there anything else?" asked the goblin. Cole didn't understand the goblins' issue; they weren't dealing with their own Galleons. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for them to withdraw money?
Cole shook his head and walked out of Gringotts. Looking back at the building, he thought that, from now on, the Black family mustn't store money in others' pockets. Otherwise, withdrawing money would depend too much on appearance. Cole decided the Black family needed its own bank to control the wizarding world's economic lifeline, giving the family a stronger foundation.
Instead of going to the Leaky Cauldron, Cole phantom apparated back to his home after leaving Diagon Alley. This was much more convenient. With the location coordinates, Cole easily performed a level 7 apparition. After returning to his room, Cole began his journey of making money.
Avada Kedavra? Buy it and get five thousand gold galleons, transforming directly into Master Voldemort. Cruciatus Curse? Soul-stealing curse? It's got potential, but you can't manage without it. The flames were blazing, and Cole found that these spells stopped progressing at level eight. Level nine wasn't something gold galleons could address. It seemed that at the ninth level, spells would undergo a qualitative change, so Cole decided not to worry about it for now. He would deal with it when the time came.
Thunderbolt Explosion, Divine Edge Shadowless, Freezing Curse, Legilimency, Weather Curse, Misty Clouds.
The golden galleons disappeared in an instant. Feeling the changes in his body, Cole could now successfully cast these spells even without a wand. The one hundred thousand gold galleons spent were exchanged for Cole's spell proficiency. Coupled with his magic power, Cole felt that he could fight with Lao Deng. How about going to Hogwarts now and occupying the position of headmaster of Old Dengtou? Or bring down the coward Fudge? The title of British Minister of Magic suits me well.
Calm down, Dumbledore is not a simple person. You must know that the idea of the first generation Dark Lord was first proposed by Dumbledore. But Cole still found it boring. The system asked him to develop a family, and it was just him and one person. What could he do even if he became the principal? After becoming the Minister of Magic, no one in the Black family could help take care of it. Thinking of this, Cole suddenly remembered that he could exchange wizards and give them the Black surname, which would solve the problem of the scarcity of people. As for giving birth, it cannot be completed in a day or two.
"System, exchange for thirty junior wizards, ten intermediate wizards, and one senior wizard."
"Roger, host."
Cole felt distressed for a while, not for the gold galleons, which he had plenty of, but for the family honor. Honor points must be used to redeem senior wizards. The combat power of a senior wizard is equivalent to that of a Hogwarts professor. It's not a bad thing; besides him, the Black family also needs to support the scene. Forty-one people appeared in Cole's room in an instant. Fortunately, his room was large; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to stand.
"Master, I am Wright Sorich." The black-robed wizard at the head looked at Cole with firm eyes. Cole knew that this was the person he had exchanged for his honor points. "From today on, your name is Wright Black, and you will lead these people to become the family guard. From now on, you will call me Young Master." Wright and his group knelt down directly. Wright stretched out his right hand with his palm facing up.
"Thank you, Master, for giving me your surname. I will defend the honor of the Black family to the death." Cole also stretched out his hand and tapped lightly, asking Kreacher to come over and arrange for Wright and others. Kreacher was indeed a house elf. He was shocked when he saw Wright and others, but he still held back and did his duty. Kreacher just thought: Should he tell his old master? These people were probably Master Cole's followers outside.
Master Cole is really powerful. With so many followers, it seems that he has really changed a lot. Kreacher slapped himself and said: Kreacher deserves to die. How can you question the little master? Kreacher deserves to die, Kreacher deserves to die, Kreacher should do what he should do. Kreacher calmed down for a while and then looked upstairs and whispered: "Do you want Kreacher to tell Master Cole about that matter? Master Regulus won't let Kreacher do it."
Just like that, after some nervous muttering, Kreacher left and walked to the closet to do something unknown. Cole came out of Meira's room and got to know Meira's life experience. A young lady from a noble family, her talent as a mage was discovered and she was sent to the wizard's tower, where she has been a wizard's apprentice ever since. Cole found that Meira didn't have any rebellious mentality towards him. Meira would listen to what Cole said and respond seriously. Although he didn't know what the system said about the talent of the Shadow Snake, Cole decided that his future wife would be Meira. Mera Black, that sounds good.
