Hogwarts: I Became the Third Dark Lord
Chapter 275: Harold's Bank
Harold's voice fell, and the scene fell silent for a while, and even Rita Skeeter couldn't help opening her mouth, unable to speak in surprise.
When Rita Skeeter received the note, the Deathly Hallows logo on the note had clearly told Rita Skeeter that what Harlot was about to do represented the witchcraft the will of the party.
And what Rita Skeeter has to do is to cooperate with Harold.
Even the questions asked by Rita Skeeter were already prepared for Rita Skeeter on the note.
However, Rita Skeeter did not expect that the Umno Party would play so much this time.
At this time, after Harold saw his voice fall, the scene became so quiet that many people even began to whisper, the cheers in his image did not come, and he couldn't help but feel a drumbeat in his heart.
At this moment, Mrs. Weasley suddenly stood up and said loudly:
"Mr. Harold, there may be one thing you don't know. When the goblins rebelled, after our human wizards signed an armistice agreement with the goblins, we also signed a power of attorney to authorize the goblins to open the only bank in the magical world. That's how Gringotts came about."
"If someone violates this power of attorney, they will be jointly cursed by the most powerful wizards and goblins of the year! Mr. Harold, we have accepted your wishes, but, for your safety..."
However, before Mrs. Weasley finished speaking, she was interrupted by Harold, who waved his arms and said loudly:
"Thank you, thank you for reminding Madam, of course I know about this!"
Having said this, Harold suddenly paused, and then roared angrily:
"But just now, in the conflict at Gringotts just now, this power of attorney has been destroyed by the Umno Party!"
Hearing this sentence, the wizards at the scene were in an uproar, and Harold continued to say:
"And, the reason why the power of attorney was destroyed was because of the goblins! I saw with my own eyes that the goblins of Gringotts took out the power of attorney and handed it over to the Lich Party!"
"And the Umrah party destroyed that power of attorney in front of the goblins!"
Having said this, Harold's tone suddenly became low, and he saw Harold's lost expression, and then said sadly:
"Originally, I wanted to save this power of attorney, and this was also the beginning of my battle with the Umno Party, but because the goblins gave up, it fell short!"
When Harold said this, his tone became high again, and Harold said loudly:
"Goblins and Gringotts can't even protect something as important as themselves. How can we believe that they can protect our property?!"
"So, I'm going to start a new bank, the safest bank in the entire wizarding world! A bank that belongs to our wizards!"
Along with Harold's loud shouts, thunderous applause finally broke out at the scene again. Almost all the wizards on the scene were moved by Harold and applauded warmly for Harold.
When the applause at the scene reached its peak, Harold suddenly waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. When everyone gradually quieted down, Harold continued:
"Not only that, but I've decided that the bank I'm about to open, all the vaults, will waive the rent for you! That is, everyone will deposit Galleons in my bank, and I will not charge you any cost!"
Hearing Harold's words, the wizards at the scene were stunned again, and this was not over yet, Harold went on to say:
"Not only do I not charge you fees, I will pay you fees to wizards who deposit Galleons in my bank, which is what Muggles call interest! As long as you have ten Galleons, store them in my bank. One year, after one year, you can get eleven Galleons!"
Hearing Harold's words, the eyes of many of the wizards who were stunned in place lit up, such as Mrs. Weasley.
And some people's eyes are full of doubts, not knowing what Harold wants to do?
If it wasn't for Harold who had just experienced the **** battle at Gringotts and protected everyone's property in Gringotts, many people might have begun to wonder if Harold was going to take everyone's Galleon away? !
After all, although Harold has written many best-selling books in recent years, and is considered a small fortune, this is definitely not enough for him to have the money to pay such a huge interest.
But soon, Harold's words later dispelled everyone's doubts. After Harold signaled everyone to be quiet again, he continued to say:
"Do you think that the benefits I give everyone are only interest? No! Of course not! I'll also give you Gold Galleons!"
"I know that many wizards and wizard families occasionally encounter a situation where they are shy! At this time, you can come to my bank, and my bank is very happy to lend you money!"
Hearing this, even Mrs. Weasley, a diehard fan of Harold, couldn't help but stop cheering and looked at Harold with a strange expression on her face.
After all, everyone is not a fool, and the pie Harold painted was so big that it made the wizards start to feel a little scared.
And at this moment, Harold suddenly changed the conversation, a little embarrassed, and said embarrassedly:
"Of course, you come to lend me money, and I'm happy to lend it to you, but I can't work in vain, right! There's a fee for this!"
Hearing Harold's words, there was a sound of exhalation, as if everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and even some people couldn't wait to say:
"It should be, Mr. Harold, this is what you deserve. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"
Someone even asked how Harold planned to charge.
And Harold thought for a while, and then said directly:
"Well, if you borrow ten Galleons for a one-year loan period, then you will have to leave one Galleon as the handling fee for the loan, and after one year, you will need to return thirteen Galleons. !"
"Of course, if you can provide real estate, or a magic item with a certain value after my assessment, or even a magical creature as collateral, then I can also not charge the handling fee for that Galleon!"
Hearing this, most wizards are still a little hazy and don't know what to say, and can only understand the general meaning.
However, some wizards began to react and quickly realized the huge benefits in this transaction, such as Lucius Malfoy, who has been watching from the sidelines.
I saw Lucius Malfoy, looking at Harold in front of him with bright eyes, and said in disbelief:
"This guy is so good at doing business?! Shouldn't this be..."
