Hogwarts Summoning Guide

Chapter 119 Finding Trouble with Mugur

With the addition of Youxi, Bai Lin's team now has three members. If Zhuo Bi and Qi Qi could join, Bai Lin's first mission would have been completed. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and they can only hope that Patrice can rescue the people.

Yuxi had just graduated from Beauxbatons School of Magic and was only an intern at the Bordeaux Wine Gazette. After this incident, continuing her internship was out of the question, so Bai Lin made her his secretary, which solved her livelihood problem. Her first task was to help Bai Lin count the mountain of Gallon.

The Wizarding World doesn't have Taobao or WeChat, so all the money Bai Lin earns is real gold coins. From the bounties on Death Eaters to his recent share of the Beast Arena earnings, each time it's thousands of Galleons in income. Bai Lin himself has never even counted how much money he has in his pocket.

"W-w-w-... are all these your gold coins?" Yuxi looked at the money bags covering the table and felt her values ​​were being challenged. Her internship salary at the Bordeaux Wine Newspaper was only 15 Gallons a month, and even if she became a full-time employee, she would only earn 50 Gallons at most. The gold coins in front of her were clearly a number she could never earn in her entire life.

"Help me count them... Just pile them in groups of twenty... Yes, just make sure you count them correctly. Tomorrow, come with me to Gringotts in Diagon Alley..."

Bai Lin didn't return to the warehouse until dinner time. You Qian was still counting the neatly stacked gold coins, occasionally slapping her head.

Perhaps wizards can't do multiplication... Bai Lin muttered.

"There are 26003 in total, Mr. White!" The poor little girl wiped the sweat from her forehead and finally counted them.

"Thank you for your hard work. Could you please pack them into 26 money bags, one thousand coins per bag? You can keep the extra three as a tip," Bai Lin said, munching on a donkey meat sandwich made by Finnis.

"Huh? A thousand in a pack?" The little girl almost cried, "Do I have to count them again?"

Bai Lin: ...

That evening, Bai Lin settled Youxi in the warehouse, next to which was the temporary dormitory for the twelve house-elves. Bai Lin was very glad that he had asked Zhuo Bi to dig the underground warehouse so large. If he could rescue her, Bai Lin planned to build a three-bedroom, two-living-room house underground...

"Um... Captain..." Yuqian asked from the makeshift bed next to him, separated by a simple curtain. Since joining Bai Lin's system team, she had started calling him Captain. "Do you have dreams like that? Since that day... I haven't slept well at all..."

Bai Lin scratched his head. He had often woken up from nightmares during the summer after graduating from high school, but in the wizarding world, he slept soundly until dawn every day without dreaming of anything. However, he felt sorry for Youxi; such a life was not easy for her, so he could only comfort her by saying, "Sleep well, the sun god will protect you..."

Strangely enough, as soon as Bai Lin finished speaking, the sound of You Qian's steady breathing could be heard from beside him; she had already fallen asleep.

Bai Lin smiled slightly, hoping that the other Awakened Ones could pull through. He thought of the waiter who had suddenly attacked Youxi with a knife, and fell into deep thought…

The next day, Phineas woke the two up with a fragrant bowl of creamy mushroom soup and ham and eggs. Today, Phineas was wearing the Seekers family butler's uniform again—a "privilege" of the Seekers family's house-elves, while other house-elves considered it shameful to receive clothing as a gift from their masters.

Bai Lin knew that this clothing custom was nothing more than human wizards brainwashing their house-elves. He immediately read Chapter 119, "Finding Trouble with Mugur," to begin today's exciting content. Changing the item would have been the same.

Phineas's Apparition was faster and more comfortable. After the three of them had breakfast, they arrived in front of Gringotts Bank in Diagon Alley in an instant. Three goblins in suits were already waiting for him at the door.

The leading fairy, with his slicked-back hair and relatively smooth face, was quite tall for a fairy. He greeted Bai Lin with great politeness, saying, "Respected Mr. Kelling White, welcome! Vice President Christo pays his respects!"

Yesterday, Bai Lin had Phineas use the Seekers' family letter to notify Gringotts Bank that he wanted to deposit 20,000 Galleons. Sure enough, the goblins immediately gave him the highest level of hospitality.

The fairies led Bai Lin through Gringotts' magnificent hall, where countless wizards were processing their business at the fairy staff's counters. The place was opulent, grand, and exuded an aura of wealth and power. Yuxi looked around with great curiosity.

Christo took Bai Lin very seriously and did not make him wait in line at the counter, but led them directly to the office.

"At your service, sir! Would you like to rent a vault, or use the Explorers family's warehouse area?" Christo asked in a friendly tone.

Although he didn't know what this "Explorer Family's Warehouse Area" was all about, Bai Lin had ulterior motives. He had Finnis take out a bag of gold coins, which immediately piled up into a small mountain on the office floor.

"Let's rent a personal vault. My business is going very well, and I'll be making a lot of money every month." Bai Lin spoke with the air of an elite boss, even a little arrogant.

"As you wish, sir. Would you like me to give you a quote?" Christo looked at the pile of gold coins, his eyes crinkling into crescent shapes with laughter.

Depositing money at Gringotts is all charged, and you can forget about getting interest. The wealthy rent family vaults where you can put whatever you want without anyone interfering. Ordinary people can only use the deposit slip system, which reminded Bai Lin of the silver notes in ancient Eastern countries, which were essentially metal currency exchanged for credit notes from money shops.

Bai Lin crossed his legs on the sofa and said, "I've heard that some ancient families have ordered the most secure security measures... some even use fire dragons to guard their vaults!"

Christo rubbed his hands together, a broad smile on his face, and said, "We do offer customized security services. Let me show you a list."

Bai Lin waved his hand dismissively and said, "What's the point of looking at the list? Take me on a tour, just from a distance!"

Christo looked troubled, but after glancing at the pile of gold coins, he said, "A vault of that size might require thousands of gallons in maintenance costs every year..." Yuxi was taken aback. Although her father was the head of the Auror office in France, she and her mother were not actually wealthy.

Bai Lin frowned and said, "Do you think I can't afford it?"

"No, not at all! I'll arrange staff for you right away!" Christo said with his professional smile back.

"I'll appoint a staff member named Mugul. We met once in Egypt," Bai Lin said with a smile.

Christo was taken aback, but quickly nodded and said, "As you wish, Mr. Mugur will be at your service!"

Bai Lin rubbed his fists, his smile quite radiant.
