The White Lord of Hogwarts

Chapter 5 The senior from Slytherin

"I am indeed..." Love wanted to say something, but was choked. He thought of his mother, whom he had never met before, and the problem was probably with her.

In the eyes of the goblin, Love's behavior was clearly a sign of guilty conscience after being exposed.

"What's going on?" Seeing that something seemed to be going wrong on Love's side, Hagrid hurried over and asked with concern.

Hagrid's huge physique was a great intimidation. The goblin didn't dare to say anything and just pushed the small book towards Hagrid.

"You can see clearly by yourself. His name is not on the book. I really can't change money for him." It laughed strangely.

"Huh?" A trace of doubt arose in Hagrid's heart. He took the notebook from the goblin and read it with a frown.

[This year’s list of new students from Muggle families:

Justin Finlay

Hermione Jane Granger

…

"20 Galleons, I want this watch." Suddenly, a clear female voice came from the side, interrupting the conversation between Love and the goblin.

The goblin behind the counter still has some business skills. After hearing that Love decided to exchange precious metals for money, he immediately put on a smile: "Of course! Gringotts welcomes respected guests to exchange precious metals for gold galleons, and this exchange is not allowed."

Limited.”

"10 galleons. The material of the watch itself is not very good. Although the mechanical structure is very exquisite, it is a Muggle alchemy creation after all and has too many shortcomings." The goblin quoted a price that sounded very low.

"How could this be possible?" The goblin couldn't help but stamp her feet, "That watch, that watch - you take the watch back from her first, and we can talk slowly!"

"Then I am your senior! Do you have a favorite college?"

It cleared its throat and said dissatisfiedly: "Miss, didn't you notice that I was discussing business with Mr. Moen? Please don't disturb us!"

The goblin suddenly realized: This kid really doesn't realize the true value of this watch.

"Uh, I haven't decided yet." Love has no specific idea about which college to go to.

He put away the money bag handed over by the girl, looked at the goblin pretending to be innocent, and spread his hands: "I'm sorry, that watch has been sold."

The goblin's attitude made Hagrid even more angry, but just when he was about to have an attack, Love tugged at the corner of his clothes and signaled him to calm down and not to make things irreversible.

The goblin was startled, and then realized: This is Gringotts, its home court!

"Calm down! Otherwise I will have to 'invite' you out!" the goblin threatened rudely.

"Maybe it's my mother... I haven't seen her since she was born." Love guessed the root of the problem: he is most likely a mixed-race wizard, not a real little wizard of hemp origin.

Love also turned his head curiously, wanting to see who was causing trouble, and then a red-haired girl wearing a pointed wizard hat came into view. The girl wore a black female wizard's robe with a collar.

It has white lace on it. She wears a pair of thin black stockings on her thighs exposed under the skirt, and a pair of black satin high boots on her feet.

"It's an interesting Muggle gadget, and its mechanical structure is also very sophisticated. How much do you want to exchange it for?"

Unfortunately, Love has already completed the deal with Foxy.

The goblin rolled his eyes: "New student... Then I can make some concessions. Who can make me kind? I won't make any money from this order. How about 15 Galleons? No more!"

Who ruined my good deeds?

"Foxey Swift." Seeing Love looking at her, the girl first reported her name, and then smiled at him: "I want to buy this pocket watch, is that okay?"

"Oh?" The goblin became interested. He first put on a pair of white gloves, then took out an eyepiece and carefully observed the gold pocket watch.

"Since pounds can't be exchanged for magical currency, can I use precious metals to exchange it?" Professor McGonagall mentioned in the "voice message" he sent before that he asked Love to bring some precious metals. From this, he concluded that the ancient spirit

The company has the business of exchanging precious metals for gold galleons.

"You are not a wizard from a Muggle family, so you do not meet the conditions for redemption." The elf shrugged and said with a look of regret.

"I'm Love Morn, how much do you pay?" Love asked bluntly.

"Very good." Love nodded, took out the pocket watch from his pocket and put it on the counter.

Love nodded.

Love was stunned. How could he know the value of this watch in the magic world? So he asked, "How much can you give me?"

As soon as the two of them walked out of Gringotts, they heard someone from behind shouting: "Hey! Wait a minute!"

Hagrid's slap caused the entire counter to shake, and the rubies on the scale next to him were shaken off and scattered all over the table. This attracted the attention of countless goblins and wizards who came here to handle business.

"This is?"

"Good job." Hagrid grinned and gave Love a thumbs up. He had already seen these goblins unhappy, and it was naturally very pleasant to have the opportunity to piss them off. But look at the angry look on the goblin's face.

, Love must still have lost money.

"Ten Galleons is too little. It is not even enough to buy the books and equipment he needs for school." After hearing the goblin's offer, Hagrid immediately felt that the goblin's offer was too low.

After reading it, he had a rough judgment on the value of the pocket watch.

Then the girl ran up behind Love and thrust a small leather bag into his hand.

"That watch of yours is worth at least 30 galleons. I won't take advantage of you. Let's count this as the difference in the price of my supply." Foxy clasped her hands behind her back and winked at Love: "You are this year's freshman pair.

wrong?"

"Deal." Love leaned forward, took his pocket watch from the counter, and handed it to the girl named Foxy.

The goblins behind the counter were all shocked: How dare someone dare to cut off his penis in Gringotts?

Goblin:?!

"Twenty Galleons."

The list was not long, and Hagrid was pretty sure Love's name was not on it.

With all the fat in her mouth gone, how could the always greedy goblin maintain a peaceful mind? Even if the watch was taken back for thirty galleons, it would still be profitable!

Love shrugged his shoulders and left the hall, leaving the goblin there to regret himself.

"Hey, wait a minute! We can actually talk!" The goblin behind the counter jumped up from his stool as if he had been stabbed.

"He hasn't seen his mother since he was born!" Hagrid wanted to try harder. He came to the counter, patted the table, and said loudly and dissatisfiedly.

"It's completely driven by machinery, which is a bit interesting... The body of the watch is made of 14K gold and is inlaid with sterling silver. The dial is made of platinum and decorated with rubies..." While looking at the pocket watch, the goblin kept whispering to himself,

Clearly an expert in this area.

"Why don't you come to Slytherin? I'll protect you, senior~" Foxy smiled slyly, like a little fox.

Hearing this, Hagrid, who was standing aside, couldn't help it.
