After sorting out Harry’s little trouble, Turville continued to stay at St. Mungo’s and watched Mr. Longbottom’s treatment process.

This time, Neville and Draco successfully cured Mr. Longbottom’s soul disorder without the help of Turville and Meriam.

Although the souls of the two are still very weak and require long-term treatment and recuperation, the news still greatly inspired the Order of the Phoenix.

After receiving the news, Dumbledore rushed over with other free members of the Order of the Phoenix. Even Mr. Weasley, who was originally lying on the hospital bed, endured the bleeding wound on his neck and joined in the fun.

Although Meliam subsequently kicked the patients out of the ward on the grounds that they needed to rest, everyone returned to Grimmauld Place with smiles and celebrated after a long absence.

“The more difficult times are, the more we need such exciting news and celebrations.” Dumbledore said.

Although no one involved in this dinner was present…

However, Tweel was unable to attend the dinner because he was dragged to Malfoy Manor by Lucius.

“Although I haven’t been here for a long time, your manor has changed too much, right?” Tver looked at the magnificent manor in front of him in surprise.

The former Malfoy Manor was already the most luxurious among the pure-blood families, but since wizards have never been good at architecture and design, when compared with the majestic Muggle buildings, it seemed less impressive.

But now, if it weren’t for the fact that the white house in the center was still the same as before, just looking at the large fountain, the two-story peacock statue, the rows of street trees, etc., he would have thought that he had arrived at one of the top ten most luxurious places in the Muggle world. Manor or something.

“Ahem,” Lucius said with a proud smile, “These are all purchased from Muggles, they are very cheap.”

Seeing Tver raise his eyebrows, he quickly explained: “Don’t worry, we all purchase through the name of Gringotts. Those goblins make more than us!”

He curled his lips slightly enviously.

The goblins of Gringotts can purchase goods from the Muggle world with great arrogance, and the wizards under the supervision of the Ministry of Magic cannot find out what is hidden inside.

But it’s different for purebloods like them. Although they make more money, only a small half of it can be converted into physical goods!

“Don’t say that, Lucius, if Mr. Foley allowed you to set foot in the Muggle world, each of you would be richer than Gringotts!”

A middle-aged goblin in a suit stood at the door of Malfoy Manor, looking at Tver meaningfully.

Tver didn’t take it seriously and waved at him casually.

“Long time no see, Ingus, it seems like your life is pretty good now?”

The greedy goblin was different. Before, she had concealed herself and said that it was a normal business done at the request of the wizard.

Now, after a year and a half of reaping the benefits, he began to encourage Turville to fight against the Ministry of Magic and the Statute of Secrecy, and to fully engage in the Muggle world, so that they, goblins, could hide behind and take advantage!

Feeling the threat in Tver’s words, Ingus reluctantly lowered his proud head.

“Thanks to you, Gringotts’ income has more than doubled, and the goblins’ lives have become much better.”

Gringotts’ previous profits were actually not very high. Coins must be minted according to the existing currency circulation. Goblins like them couldn’t make much money from it. Most of it was maintained by selling vaults and collecting storage fees. .

But Tver’s middleman business is different. These goblins only need to be responsible for purchasing. They don’t need to spend any money on consumption and sales. The difference in price is their profit!

Therefore, most of the goblins’ profits are now controlled by Tver, and no matter how arrogant Ingus is, he can only bow to his sponsor.

Seeing that Ingus was so sensible, Tver stopped bullying him. It was not good to go too far.

“Let’s go, I think they can’t wait any longer.”

Tver took the lead, ignoring Lucius who was stunned on the spot, and strode through the gate of the manor.

Lucius swallowed and suddenly realized that Tver had probably noticed their little move and quickly followed them.

“Tver, I didn’t know that they had contacted each other privately beforehand, let alone that they had joined forces to put pressure on you!”

Lucius explained in a panic, but Ingus next to him sneered.

“Not to mention Mr. Foley, even the goblin guarding the gate of Gringotts knows about the little thoughts of you people!”

“I just see that business in the Muggle world is getting better and better, and I am not willing to share part of the profits with Mr. Welfare in vain. I am even more unwilling that wizards like them who can change everything can only do business with Muggles!”

Lucius looked at the expressionless

Tver became more and more panicked. Only then did Tver glance at Ingus.

“Greed is human nature. Don’t you goblins want to make more money?”

Ingus was stunned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of his words.

“You’re right, but I’m different from them. I always obey your orders.”

Tver didn’t believe a word of this. He paused, stood in front of the closed door, and pushed hard with both hands.

“So, I’m here to help you make more money!”

“Crunch——”

After hearing Tver’s words, everyone who had been discussing loudly around the long table couldn’t help but turn around in surprise.

“Professor Welfare?” A middle-aged wizard said in a panic, “You…you are here…”

“Click… click…”

Tver did not answer directly, but walked towards the long table step by step. The sound of footsteps was unusually obvious in the suddenly quiet house, like knocking on their hearts, echoing over and over again.

Except for Tver, everyone’s face became increasingly ugly as they felt the increasingly solemn atmosphere.

It seems that they realized what a stupid decision they made.

“Of course, little Avery, I’m afraid that you will be influenced by your father and determined to return to Voldemort.” Tver answered little Avery with a smile on his face, as if chatting.

Although he was not hit by magic, little Avery felt as if his body was frozen, and in the end he could only put on an extremely fake smile on his face.

“That…that was a misunderstanding, Professor…”

His father was one of the first Death Eaters to follow Voldemort, so he, who was a classmate with Snape, actually only participated in the later stages of the last Wizarding War, and had not experienced much of the Dark Lord’s high-pressure management style.

So when Tver put such pressure on him, he was the first to be unable to withstand it.

“Misunderstanding? So you really have other ideas?”

The smile on Tver’s face disappeared immediately, and he glanced at the people with different expressions one by one with his cold and thoughtful eyes without expression.

“Tell me, are you holding this meeting to tell me that you have decided to follow Voldemort’s downtrodden old master instead of living upright and happily in the wizarding world like you do now?!”
