Regarding the modification of the tank star destroyer, we still have to wait until Mr. Weasley returns home from get off work and discuss it with him before we can start.

After all, these things are Mr. Weasley's favorite things.

However, this did not prevent Kyle and the twin brothers from squatting in the carport to discuss the Star Destroyer modification plan.

"The biggest problem standing in front of us now is..."

"No money."

When two brothers with similar minds spoke, it was as if they were the same person.

"Not only do you need money for alchemy materials, but you also need Muggle currency to buy some auto parts from Muggles. What's that?"

"Pounds." Kyle answered George's doubts.

"Ah, yes, pounds," Fred counted his fingers. "Just buying a better car engine costs hundreds or even thousands of pounds, and converting it into gold galleons costs one or two hundred."

"Wait a minute, can gold galleons and pounds be exchanged for each other?" Kyle interrupted Fred.

George, Fred:…

Well, this is a young man from a rich family, so he doesn't know that this kind of thing is normal.

"Gringotts provides an exchange service between British pounds and gold galleons." Fred explained.

George rolled his eyes at Kyle, "How else would Muggle-born first-year students buy their school supplies in Diagon Alley?"

Kyle, who was despised by the two, touched his nose awkwardly.

He had withdrawn the money directly from Gringotts' vault, and Dumbledore had not even told him about such a thing.

"What's the exchange rate?"

"Exchange rate?" George didn't understand.

"That's how many pounds you get for one gold galleons."

"Oh, about five pounds." George reported a number.

Since pounds can be exchanged, U.S. dollars should also be available.

Kyle made a rough estimate and found that the Franklin he earned when he was in New York must be at least two to three hundred thousand.

There is too much money, and it becomes a series of numbers that he is too lazy to remember.

What's more, the money he earned after entering the magic world was useless.

Kyle's savings are still lying in the safe in his Bag End, and I don't know if they are moldy or not.

"Psychic art!"

Bang! A heavy safe appeared in front of the three people.

Turning the lock on the safe, Kyle quickly opened it. The piles of banknotes inside shocked both George and Fred's jaws.

"This...this is..." Fred couldn't even speak.

This is the first time the twin brothers have seen the tip of the iceberg of the real financial resources of big dogs.

"This is U.S. dollars. The Muggle currency in the United States is similar to British pounds. It should be exchangeable at Gringotts, right?"

George looked at the piles of money in front of him, with desire in his eyes. If all this money belonged to them, they would have the start-up capital to open a magic trick shop.

But in the end, he still said firmly to Kyle: "We can't ask for your money, and there is a limit to Gringotts' currency exchange."

"Limit?" Kyle kicked the safe back into Bag End, "How much?"

"Each person can only exchange up to two hundred gold galleons per year. If you exchange it with gold, the limit will be higher." George said.

Two hundred gold galleons is one thousand pounds.

If the exchange quota between him and Cedric was given to the twin brothers, they wouldn't be able to use the quota anyway.

In this case, it is eight hundred gold Galleons, which is enough for the twin brothers to do many things based on the price of goods in the wizarding world.

Not to mention just modifying the tank in front of me, it would be more than enough to build a Chikamatsu for George with ten men.

No, if you want to use better magic metal, for example mixed with some mithril, this amount of money is not enough to build ten.

Eight hundred galleons and four thousand pounds, for Kyle, it was just a matter of spending one night at a dock where there was criminal dealing.

If you get a big deal, you may even have enough redemption quota for next year.

Even if the amount of gold exchanged is much higher than this, they can still earn enough pounds by doing a few more votes.

It seems that he will return to his old career again, and the Dark Knight will embark on the journey again.

Kyle rubbed his hands excitedly, "Do you want to make money?"

The twin brothers nodded in agreement.

What they lack most is money.

"Can you apply with Mrs. Weasley and come with me to London in a few days?"

"Why are you going to London?" A head suddenly appeared on the window on the wall next to a few people.

"Ced? Just in time, I want to tell you something." Kyle waved to Cedric and motioned for him to come into the carport to talk.

Four little wizards sat on small horses and formed a circle in the old carport.

After Kyle told the other three how he survived in New York, Cedric summed it up briefly:

"So, you mean to let us go rob?"

Kyle shook his head, "No, that's called punishing rape and eradicating evil."

Cedric: I believe you.

Once they heard that they were going to give money to some gangsters similar to dark wizards, the other three little wizards had no moral obstacles.

On the contrary, because they have read a lot of comics about superheroes, they are still a little eager to try it.

"If we go with Kyle, my mother probably won't object," Fred said.

Of the four people present here, except Kyle, who is a sophomore, the other three are all in fourth grade.

He's such a big man, so we won't get lost if we go to London together.

He and George stood up from their horses and wanted to run home and talk to Mrs. Weasley about this.

"Come back," Kyle called them, "before going to London, you must first improve your proficiency in armor protection."

Although under the influence of magic, the vitality of wizards is much stronger than that of Muggles.

For example, Neville fell from a height of more than ten to twenty meters during a flying lesson and only broke his arm. After getting up, he was able to walk to the school doctor's office on his own.

But in front of Muggles' firearms, a wizard's head would also be boxed if hit by a bullet.

I have to say that Kyle is quite brave. He didn't master any defensive magic at the beginning. He only relied on the mental decapitation technique to dodge bullets by drilling into the ground, and he dared to jump repeatedly under the guns of gangsters.

Although he is still alive and kicking after dying so many times, he still cannot avoid being injured.

He was lucky and had not been hit in any vital parts, but he could not guarantee that the other three were as lucky as him.

Therefore, until the three of them can skillfully use the Iron Armor Curse, Kyle will not take the three of them to seek death together at all costs.

"My mother doesn't let us cast spells at home during the holidays." George said with some embarrassment.

"What a big deal." Kyle smiled.

He took out his suitcase from the expanded ninja bag.

"We can practice magic in the box. I specifically asked Professor Dumbledore to cast shielding magic on the box, which can block the fluctuations of traces on our bodies."

Trace silk is a kind of magic that is attached to underage wizards and is specially used to detect fluctuations in wizards' spellcasting. The Ministry of Magic uses it to discover the use of magic by underage wizards.

Of course, this kind of magic is not very accurate in detection. It can only detect whether there are magic fluctuations in an area. At most, it can be specific about what magic someone has cast in this area.

It cannot pinpoint a certain wizard.

Of course, the wizard lives in a Muggle neighborhood, and if he is the only wizard for several kilometers around, he can still be accurately targeted.

However, if there are a large number of wizards gathering in areas where magic fluctuations occur, then the detection of Trace Silk will be ineffective at this time.

In other words, children from wizarding families can be completely unscrupulous during the holidays. It all depends on whether the guardians are aware of it or not.

But things like Hermione and Harry are not so good.

They live in a Muggle community, and they are the only wizards within a radius of more than ten kilometers. As long as there is any magic fluctuation, they can be traced to them immediately.

Kyle has never been afraid to speculate on the intentions of the officials at the Ministry of Magic with the utmost malice.

You must know that those who participated in formulating the laws of the magical world were pure-blood families.

Do they want to inhibit the growth of Muggle-born wizards by setting such rules that are very beneficial to them?

After all, the winter and summer vacations at Hogwarts are quite a long period of time.

During this period of time, if one group of people cannot cast spells outside the school and another group of people are unscrupulous, the level of magic between them will increase over time.
