Hogwarts: Why do you call me the Demon King?

Pull-Hook carried Isaac and Harry back onto the Goblin Mine Train, but Professor Venda resolutely refused this undignified and uncomfortable mode of transport.

On the roller coaster, Harry swayed from side to side, but surprisingly, he didn't feel too bad.

Yes, compared to Fawkes' Apparition, the Goblin Mine Train was actually acceptable to Harry.

Along the way, Rapunzel looked somewhat gloating: "That guy's going to be in trouble, a loss of 100 Galleons...maybe next time it'll be my turn to sit at the counter."

Although fairies are not human, they still cannot defy the instincts of living beings.

Who would rather sit comfortably at the counter in the lobby than ride in such an uncomfortable mine cart going up and down?

“How come it’s a loss of 100 Galleons? Didn’t he get pounds?” Isaac’s voice drifted into Rapunzel’s ears.

"Ha! Muggle money! What use would we have for that?" Pull-ring showed his disdain for Muggle items.

Isaac didn't say anything more until the mining truck stopped in front of the Potter family's vault.

Pull the ring to unlock the door.

A thick plume of green smoke billowed out of the door, and after the smoke dissipated, Harry gasped.

The vault contained piles of gold coins, silver bars, and mountains of copper napals.

“Sir, these, these are all…” Harry’s mouth trembled, his eyes filled with disbelief.

“I told you, Harry, from the moment you step through that door of the Leaky Cauldron, you’re going to be a rich man.”

In the magical world, 90% of troubles and problems can be solved with Galleons.

Isaac went into the Potter family's vault, picked up a Galleon from the ground, and tossed it to Harry.

Harry caught it accurately, and held the Galleon in his hand, turning it over and over, examining it closely.

Upon hearing Isaac's words, he instinctively asked a question in return.

"What about the remaining 10%?"

“Good question.” Isaac found two beautifully crafted pouches in the vault, filled one with some Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts, and then tossed it to Harry.

"The remaining 10% of Galon cannot be solved, but magic can."

The money inside should be enough for you this school year. Next time you need to come to this vault, you'll have to come alone, Harry.

Isaac pulled open another, even larger bag: "Gallons, come on!"

A large number of Galleons flew into Isaac's pocket. When he felt that the amount was about right, Isaac stopped casting the spell.

The pocket he found in the vault looked bulging, as if it would burst at any moment.

Despite Isaac taking so many Galleons, the Potter family's coffers remained largely unchanged.

Isaac picked up his wand and tapped it on the bag containing the Galon.

"Wingardium Leviosa"

Under Isaac's wand's command, the heavy bag obediently floated in mid-air, drifting wherever his wand pointed.

Isaac came to Harry's side.

Just as Isaac was about to call Harry onto the minecart, Harry suddenly called out to him.

"Sir...would you like some more?"

"Hmm?" Isaac paused and turned to look at Harry.

Harry stammered, "I mean, you see there are so many gold coins here, you can take more..."

“Ha, no, Harry, this is enough.” Isaac understood what Harry meant; the kid thought he was taking the money for himself.

Isaac didn't say anything more. He instructed Rapunzel to close the door to the Potter family's vault and then boarded the fairy minecart back to the surface.

With money in hand, Harry was very much looking forward to his upcoming shopping trip.

Not everyone can make money, but who doesn't know how to spend money?

The two returned to Gringotts lobby, and the goblins at the counter immediately looked away when they saw them.

He looks like a student who's afraid to make eye contact with the teacher during class.

But then Isaac brought Harry to this very counter.

“Buddy, I think we can talk about a new business deal.” Isaac’s words forced the fairy to look up.

Then the fairy said with a straight face and no expression, "Mr. Waldorei, neither you nor Mr. Potter will be able to exchange for Galleons again this year."

No matter what you say, it's useless.

"What if we want to exchange for pounds?"

"Huh?!" The goblin's ears perked up instantly, and the next second, under Harry's shocked gaze, the goblin's old face bloomed like a chrysanthemum.

"Of course, how many pounds would you like to exchange?"

“2 pounds,” Isaac smiled.

The counter fairy's eyes shone like two light bulbs.

£2! Think of how many Galleons that will bring Gringotts back!

Without needing to calculate, the fairy instantly stated the required Galleons: "A total of 4000 Galleons! How will you pay?"

As the counter fairy asked the question, his eyes kept glancing at the pocket floating next to Isaac.

Based on his experience, there was definitely no 4000 Galleons in that bag.

Of course, it doesn't matter if it's less, as long as he can get enough Galleons, even if it's only 3000 or so, it would be a great achievement for him!

Upon hearing the fairy's words, Isaac scoffed: "4000 Galleons? Are you kidding me?"

"1000 Galleons, I want 2 pounds."

The counter fairy's eyes widened. For a moment, he felt as if he was being robbed. Who haggles down to the ankle?

“Mr. Valdore, are you mistaken? The exchange rate between Gringotts Galleons and pounds is 1:5!”

Isaac nodded confidently: "Of course I know that, but I'm planning to exchange 1000 Galleons for 2 pounds."

Then Isaac said to the counter fairy in a low voice, "You probably don't want to be doing pull-tab work at your age, do you?"

Chapter 55 Good Friday of Ollivander

"Thank you very much for your visit, Mr. Valdore. We look forward to your next visit."

For the first time ever, the counter fairy Nog took on this job of welcoming and seeing off customers.

From the smile on his face, which was more like a grimace than a cry, Isaac was certain that it must have been "voluntary."

For a big customer like him who makes a one-time "payment" of such a large sum of Galleons to Gringotts, what's wrong with him coming down from the counter to the door to deliver it?

Isaac ultimately did not exchange 1000 Galleons for £20000 as he had promised.

After a brilliant and intense negotiation, Isaac saw the goblin Nog's bottom line.

The final transaction price was 1450 Galleons for 18500 pounds.

The Galleons in Isaac's pocket were exactly the same.

Harry stood by as a perfect spectator, not saying a word, but silently supporting Isaac.

He stood firmly behind Isaac, but at this moment he also had a lot of doubts.

for example...

“Sir, I don’t understand your conversation with the Gringotts goblins…” Harry couldn’t think of a suitable description to express his feelings at that moment.

"It's really not very magical?" Isaac's description was exceptionally accurate, and Harry nodded repeatedly after hearing it.

Yes, that's exactly the feeling!

Their way of getting to the Leaky Cauldron was intense, yet magical. Their way of getting into Diagon Alley was even more magical.

The presence of these goblins in Gringotts constantly reminded Harry that he was now in a new world.

A world completely different from the Dursleyan world of the past.

But the way Isaac was haggling with the goblin Nog just now reminded Harry of his Uncle Vernon, who occasionally entertained clients at home.

They sometimes haggle like this at the dinner table.

No, is life in the wizarding world really this muggly?

"Of course it's not enough magic, because my magical power isn't enough to solve the remaining 10% of troubles in my life."

Isaac had no tactful intentions. The more straightforward the answer, the better Harry would understand.

Harry Potter is a fairy tale about magic, but Harry's life has nothing to do with fairy tales.

The trials and tribulations that life has subjected him to have enabled him to accept some more mature viewpoints.

For example, what Isaac is saying now.

"Believe me, Harry. If Dumbledore had been with you at Gringotts today, he wouldn't have needed to use those Galleons."

He only needed to sign his name, 'Albus Percival Woolflick Bryan Dumbledore,' on the parchment in Gringotts, and he could access all the pounds stored there at any time.

Gringotts even had to contribute Galleons.
