Harry Potter: I'm the Rolling King at Hogwarts

The next day, Albert phantomed to the Leaky Cauldron. Passing through the bar, people were coming and going in Diagon Alley, and the Weasleys could not be seen for a while.

Little Sander on Albert's shoulder jumped up and down, scratching at Albert's hair, and scratched Albert's hair to pieces, like a bird's nest, before it sat down safely.

Albert went to Gringotts first to exchange for gold galleons. He slapped 1000 pounds on the counter and asked, "Can these be exchanged?"

The pointed-nosed goblin saw Albert's disheveled clothes and said with annoyance: "A little wizard from a Muggle family, okay, but I can only exchange for so much, 200 gold galleons, here you go, take it, walk slowly , not sent.”

Albert slapped two more large gold bricks in front of his counter, and a dull bang startled the goblins around him.

"Can you change these?" Albert put his arms on the counter, wanting to see the goblin's reaction.

Sure enough, the goblin's attitude made a 180-degree turn. He spoke respectfully, ran down the counter on his short legs, bent down and made a ninety-degree bow, and said in a flattering tone:

"Of course, distinguished guest, you can exchange your gold for Galleons at Gringotts at any time. The exchange price here is fair, and there will never be any bullying in the store."

After inspecting Albert's gold, the goblin became more respectful to Albert, "Wait a moment, dear sir, I'll be here soon, please be patient."

He held two gold bricks, hummed and ran to the largest counter, reporting the situation to the goblin in charge. After precise measurement, the amount of gold galleons the goblin gave Albert was 5050 gold galleons. .

Although the gold Galleons made by goblins also contains gold, its purity is not high. Whether in the Muggle world or the wizarding world, gold is a hard currency and its value is very high in the wizarding world. One kilogram of gold can be exchanged for 1500 pieces. Gold galleons.

"Dear Sir, these gold Galleons are too large and will be inconvenient. Why not store them in Gringotts' vault? This is the safest place in the world. The most noble vault only charges 5 Galleons per year. With a protection fee, your treasure can be absolutely safe..."

The goblin rambled a lot, but Albert didn't listen to a word. After finally waiting for him to finish, Albert only wanted to understand one thing, and he asked:

"Tell me, goblin, what is your name?"

"My name is Ochumelov, sir. I am at your service whenever you need me."

…………

After leaving the gate of Gringotts, Albert looked back and saw the two lines on the door: Be careful, stranger... He felt sick in his heart, these goblins are really a bunch of chameleons.

Albert didn't use Gringotts' vault. He put all the piles of gold galleons in his suitcase.

Shaking his head and throwing away these annoying things, Albert walked into Ollivander's shop.

"Ding Bell!" The bell at the door rang, alerting the busy people inside. An old man with white hair but bright eyes walked out of a pile of wand boxes.

"Oh! Albert Klein, thunderbird tail feathers as the center of the staff, elderwood staff, thirteen inches, excellent spellcasting ability."

Albert admired Ollivander's professionalism and remembered every wand he sold.

"I wonder what happened to you this time? Is the wand damaged? I always tell the little wizard to take good care of the wand and take care of it regularly, but there are always people who don't listen to the advice..."

Albert interrupted Ollivander's chatter. He took out his Thunderbird wand and handed it to Ollivander.

Ollivander took the wand handed over by Albert with both hands. After looking at it carefully for a moment, he showed a surprised expression and said in shock:

"Mr. Klein, what did you do to this wand? I feel that the thunderbird feathers inside are full of energy, as if they are alive!"

Without giving Albert a chance to speak, Ollivander looked down at the wand, as if looking at a flawless work of art.

He said: "Mr. Klein, I must popularize some basic wand knowledge to you. The materials we use to make wands are all 'dead' and have no spirituality. That's because your wand has completely broken through." Common sense, inside...it...it's like there's a live thunderbird living there!"

Albert roughly understood something. He remembered that he and Sander had established a wonderful connection that day. Maybe it was at that time that the wand changed.

Ollivander looked at the bald bird above Albert's head and murmured: "Only with the blessing and devotion of life from the thunderbird can such a thing happen, and it must be the same thunderbird.

Mr. Albert, your luck is beyond ordinary people. As I said, everyone who owns an elder wand will have a magnificent life..."

Although he had expected all this, Albert still couldn't help but sigh that the fate between him and Sander was wonderful, and now the power of the wand has been increased by at least half!

Sander moved on Albert's head: "Of course, I am the best!" Its milky voice sounded in Albert's heart.

Albert took back the Thunderbird wand. Ollivander's eyes were still a bit reluctant, and Albert asked:

"Sir, I heard that every wand you sell to a new student costs seven gold galleons, is that correct?"

Ollivander waved his hands, thinking of some bad things, and said angrily: "It was originally like this, but because of those officials from the Ministry of Magic...

You know, there is definitely a cost for making a wand. Most of the wood used to make the wand is selected by me personally. I buy the materials for the core of the wand from merchants. The cost of most wands is the same.

Senior officials from the Ministry of Magic said that they wanted to reduce the cost of schooling for little wizards and introduced a subsidy policy. For a 30 Galleons wand, they paid 23 Gold Galleons, leaving the little wizards to only bear 7 Gold Galleons.

But they didn't believe the price I quoted, saying that I would falsely quote a 30 Galleons wand as 35 Galleons to earn magical welfare subsidies.

They take a one-size-fits-all approach, and each wand only costs 23 Galleons, but 30 Galleons is only the lowest price here, so some wands made of rare materials are actually more expensive. "

Ollivander said this with a strong tone, and he was obviously very angry. In his opinion, the Ministry of Magic's actions were a distrust of him and a trample on his personality.

Albert stroked his Thunderbird wand, "So my wand belongs to this type? The one made of rare materials."

Ollivander nodded and affirmed: "Yes, many people say that I only use dragons, unicorns and phoenixes as materials. In fact, this is not the case. I have tried many materials, but there are few other materials like those three. They are just suitable for making wands. There are some wands I have made from other materials. As long as I think they are excellent, I will sell them, hoping that they will find the right person.

I remember that the thunderbird tail feathers used in your wand were purchased from a businessman named Keller. However, I read in the Daily Prophet today that he was actually an illegal animal dealer who was killed by Newt Scamman. De and his mysterious assistant caught him. "

Listening to this, Albert felt something bad in his heart. Could it be that Newt was caught by Skeeter?

He refused Ollivander's recommended advanced wand care set, bid farewell to the old man, left the store, and bought a copy of the Daily Prophet on the street.

Albert's pupils shrank instantly, with an expression of disbelief, "This..."
