Hogwarts on the tip of the tongue
Chapter 584 The original form of the nightmare
For some time now, Gringotts has been battling some invisible nightmare.
Regarding the identities of these competitors, the Goblin Council of Elders has many optimistic guesses, such as the goblins in America, the mysterious probes from the non-magical world, and the long-standing prying eyes and greed from the Ministry of Magic.
It wasn't until this morning's Gringotts high-level plenary meeting that the cruel fact that the goblins had been trying to avoid was finally determined - Hogwarts, which represents the top power in the wizarding world, is the one who has been standing in the fog. One of the figures behind the plan was Gringotts. The most important thing was that Gringotts didn't even have the ability to lift the table.
With Douglas "resurrected from the dead" appearing at the door of Gringotts, the Goblin Council of Elders, who personally issued the execution order, finally realized that it turned out that the Thirteenth Elder Leos was the traitor who had hidden the most.
There is no doubt that this is a major reshuffle of the Gringotts faction initiated from within.
The despicable and shameful Leos once again repeated the investment it made hundreds of years ago, but this time it chose to collude with human wizards to help it realize its ambition to control Gringotts Wizarding Bank, and carried out shameful benefits. exchange.
At this time, apart from hastily ordering the guards to imprison Leos, Gringotts Wizarding Bank has no more room for reaction. They also need to deal with the "Destiny Chief Financial Officer", no matter what the other party is prepared to do. Blood revenge, or helping wizards destroy Gringotts. In short, the nightmare has become a reality, and you have to face it after all.
However, in the expectations of Gloin and other goblins, the negotiation should not be like this.
The "reborn" Douglas looked particularly calm, with neither the arrogance of a victor nor the joyful bloodthirst of an avenger. It seemed that for him, he was just coming back after a vacation.
The middle-aged goblin just sat on the bank counter and asked quite seriously: Gringotts is about to face a run. Is there any good way for Gringotts Wizarding Bank to survive this crisis?
Although, this problem may be more difficult than before.
"Creating panic and promoting runs...isn't this your plan..."
The goblin elder took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions to prevent his voice from trembling too obviously due to anger. He stared at Douglas's face fiercely and spoke slowly.
"As the former head of Gringotts' venture capital department, you can't be unclear about the impact these things will have on Gringotts, right? If Gringotts hadn't been pushed to a dead end, would you have appeared here? "
If there was really nothing they could do, how could the Goblin Council of Elders, with its arrogance, obey the request of a traitor who was almost secretly executed by them? All the people moved from the underground conference room of Gringotts to the marble hall of the bank above to conduct such a process. A humiliating surrender negotiation.
With the break of the cash chain, all Gringotts' industries have gradually begun to paralyze.
And their only hope now is that Hogwarts and humans are willing to return the billions of gold galleons that were previously plundered to the Gringotts Wizarding Bank. Otherwise, they will not be able to survive next week. Gringotts and the goblins It will be completely turned into the dust of history.
All this is different from all the financial investments and games Gringotts Wizarding Bank has experienced in the past millennium.
There are no ingenious numbers games, no contract explanations that play with words, and even luck is just a factor that adds fuel to the flames. This is a tower built up through financial scams. What knocks down all the chips is what the goblins think is the least. Problems may occur, but it is also the simplest bank counter business.
Therefore, facing the first large-scale run in Gringotts' history, almost all goblin executives and elders came to only one conclusion and response method - to find as many Galleons as possible to support them. Get through this run.
Although they were mentally prepared to be criticized before coming up, the sudden rise of humiliation and powerlessness following the middle-aged goblin's questions still made it difficult for the goblins present to control their emotions.
However, Tianming’s chief financial officer seemed dissatisfied with this answer.
Douglas glanced at the sad-looking fairies below and tapped his fingers on the counter in front of him.
"Dead end? Is this a judgment given by the Venture Capital Department or a conclusion reached by the Council of Elders?"
"This is a joint effort between the Venture Capital Department, all senior management, and the Council of Goblin Elders..."
"Oh, it seems that Gringotts really lost unjustly this time. I never thought that after stripping away the remaining spirit of adventure and wisdom, the goblin has become so stupid and cowardly. "
Before the goblins below could finish speaking, Douglas sighed with great disappointment.
"You guys gave up too early... why don't you try something else?"
Marble Hall
Douglas' sigh echoed in the hall. The expression on the middle-aged goblin's face was very serious, and he seemed to be really caring and thinking about the future fate of Gringotts. However, the expressions of Gloin and other old goblins suddenly changed. Get ferocious.
Why not try something else?Then there must be another way...
if so……
The chief goblin elder trembled all over, turned his head and looked at the livid-faced colleagues around him, took a deep breath and laughed miserably. The voice sounded extremely penetrating, as if it was coming from an ice cellar.
"Then, dear Mr. Douglas, please tell me... what else can Gringotts do..."
"Actually, in my opinion, there are several other ways, which are not completely desperate."
Douglas rubbed his chin, leaned on the back of the chair, and answered softly thoughtfully.
"For example, directly admitting that the wizards' gold galleons were misappropriated, and at the same time disclosing the contents of the contract signed with Dumbledore, informing the wizards that their gold galleons are in Hogwarts Castle, although it would be a fatal blow to the bank's reputation. , but at least part of the risk has been transferred, so that the wizarding world's attention will not be entirely on Gringotts;
Or mobilize all the elders, high-level officials and even ordinary goblins to contribute their own gold and treasures to temporarily fill the shortfall in Gringotts. As far as I know, everyone still has a lot of gold in their respective secret vaults. If they are gathered together , barely scraping together one or two hundred million, it should still be possible... In this case, it can still delay a lot of time. "
Douglas shrugged, took out the last cigar from his arms, and played with it carelessly.
"There are many ways to respond like this. They are nothing more than muddying the situation, sharing debts, mortgaging the future, making up for shortfalls, shrinking the market... As long as we can get more buffer time, Gringotts will eventually be able to slowly recover. Out of anger."
As a huge financial institution that has been operating in the wizarding world for thousands of years, Gringotts Wizarding Bank's heritage far exceeds everyone's imagination. If the goblins can be ruthless and take the lead in taking all the losses, then as time goes by, the wizards The gold coins that we have nowhere to save will eventually flow slowly back into the bank's vault.
It's a pity that when this loss is no longer the main body of the macro bank, but falls on every goblin, the execution of this decision is not so easy - the goblins who put their interests first are entirely possible to take a step ahead. Civil unrest breaks out.
Of course, this is not completely impossible for the Goblin Elder Council and executives to suppress.
"These methods sound good..."
Gloin was stunned for a moment, took a deep look at Douglas who was sitting not far away, and said with a half-smile.
"As expected of the 'star of hope' who once ran the venture capital department, he can find so many ways to break the situation in just a few words. Is this the means you and Leos have prepared to turn the tide as you covet to control Gringotts? It's just... Aren't you worried that after Gringotts learns about these methods, it will in turn cause trouble for the wizard master behind you?"
"Now that I've spoken out, it proves that these roads are blocked."
Douglas shook his head and replied calmly, without showing any worry.
"Also, these contents are not what I came up with, but the eldest lady prepared them in advance and asked me to communicate with you, so as to avoid unnecessary consumption of the assets and reputation of Gringotts Wizarding Bank... The eldest lady originally gave I reserved two hours of explanation time, but now it seems that I overestimated Gringotts and overestimated us goblins."
"Miss? Is that the little mixed-race witch named Elena Kaslana?"
Faced with Douglas' explanation, Gloin was stunned again, and then he grinned dumbly.
"So, you want to say that you are just a mouthpiece? All conspiracies have nothing to do with you?"
"In fact, it can be said that..."
Douglas hesitated, spread his hands, smiled helplessly, and said calmly.
"Since leaving Gringotts, most of the business we have been involved in has been separated from the field where Gringotts is located. The specific situation of Gringotts is completely conveyed by the eldest lady - except for a simple accounting of the accounts. In addition, our group of goblins spent more time studying and studying some financial books written by Muggles recommended by the eldest lady, so as to better understand the content of future work. Of course, Albus Dun Bledo is also learning."
"You, Dumbledore...learn about Muggle finance?!"
Gloin took a deep breath and widened his eyes, "So you don't mean to say that these plans are not the work of the traitor Leos? But the conspiracy of that despicable human wizard cub? The one named Irene Na’s little mixed-race thing?!”
