Summer vacation in July.

　　The scorching summer makes people feel lazy.

Lucius was very satisfied with the performance of the two brothers last semester. Schelling needless to say is Draco-his academic performance has improved a lot, and he has become a hero of the Slytherin Quidditch team. , Severus also said, Draco will be the next Quidditch captain! You know, the Quidditch captain is generally selected among students in grades 5 to 7, so Draco's achievements are enough to make the whole family proud of him.

　　 So this summer, Lucius has been a lot tolerant of the two brothers. As for Narcissa? She is still doting about her son.

　　 Knowing that he will be the captain, Draco spent most of this summer vacation practicing Quidditch with Graham Monty and Cassius Wallington and discussing new tactics.

　　 In the upcoming new semester, Marcus Flint and two batsmen will graduate, and the team needs to absorb three new players. In the original book, the captain Montage returned to the team to replace Marcus as the chaser, and then used Gore and Crabbe to replace the two batsmen.

　　 However, the ambitious Draco thinks otherwise. He thinks that the rough play style that relies too much on size and fouls is really not in line with his noble personality as a captain, especially when the entire team is equipped with a high-level broomstick.

　　 He is fond of Frank Urquhart and Steven Vasai, who are his junior. Although they look thin and unremarkable, they have amazing arm strength and are suitable for training as a hitter.

(Note: Urquhart and Vasai are the original characters, and the author just gave them names. Urquhart became the captain in 1996. When he shook Harry's hands, he squeezed Harry's palm, indicating that he was very strong. Big)

　　 Other times, he was hiding in the room mysteriously, preventing others from knowing what he was playing.

　　 Xie Lin actually knew that he was secretly communicating with Pansy, but he chose not to reveal it. Xie Lin is happy to see what happened to her brother and Pansy. Pansy has indeed converged a lot since last semester. This is not only reflected in her character, but also her appearance is slowly showing a sense of lady. And elegant temperament.

　　 Monta and Wallington actually wanted to befriend Schelling. Their origins were not noble, and the family could not help them go further in society. It was obviously a good choice to attach to the powerful Malfoy family. However, Schelling rarely appeared in the common room, and almost no one could grasp his whereabouts, and Draco, who was also a Quidditch player, naturally became the object of their attachment.

　　 Fortunately, Draco's performance is not much better, I heard that he has been appointed as the next captain by default. In terms of prestige alone, it may not be as good as Schelling, but at Hogwarts he is also the number one man. If you count Pansy, Gore, and Crabbe, Draco already has five followers by his side, you can say Is sitting on a core team that is not weak. (Author: It's just that the appearance is not good)

　　 Schelling is very busy this summer vacation.

　　 On the first day of summer vacation, he took a trip to Gringotts.

　　 He used Sirius's vault secret signal to enter the Vault 711 openly. Although Sirius was expelled from the Black family, his vault still contained piles of Jin Jialong that looked like a hill, which was the legacy left to him by his uncle Alphad Black.

According to the records in the account book, there are close to 20,000 gallons in it. No wonder he can give Harry a firebolt so boldly, and even with Sirius’s squandering, when Harry inherits his inheritance after his death In the original book, he described his vault as "a large sum of gold".

　　 Gringotts may have very strict defensive measures against illegal intrusion, frontal robbery, or infiltration theft, but the administrative procedures for identity authentication and illegal extraction are very loose. In the original book, Sirius, as a wanted criminal, only needs a letter (with a code attached to the letter) to let the Firebolt seller go to his vault to pick up Garon by himself, which is incredible for Schelling.

　　 But this is also good.

　　Karon in vault 711, all belong to Schelling! At this time Sirius was still a wanted man, and he couldn't check his own vault.

　　 This also illustrates the IQ of Voldemort and Quirrell from the side. When facing the defense of Gringotts, they only know how to use magic and brute force to break through, and they don’t know how to work...

　　 This is not surprising, Xie Lin has already discovered that most wizards have this common problem-they are not stupid, but rely too much on magic to solve problems, and they have no knowledge of logic, analysis, strategy and other problem-solving skills.

　　 [20 thousand gold gallons won! 】

Schelling did not have any psychological burden for stealing Black’s vault. In his opinion, the money originally belonged to the Black family. Instead of ending up in the hands of a foreigner named Harry, it would be better to take it for himself. At least a quarter of Black's blood is still flowing on his body.

Schelling made a lot of money last semester by selling the property in the forbidden forest. The publishing house and the Flying Broom Company also paid him a considerable dividend. Now he is almost worth 30,000 gallons. The wizarding world can be regarded as a rich man. It can be said that his youth, romance, and gold are all occupied by him.

　　 Schelling never feels too much money.

　　 As for the sage’s stone? Schelling did master the magic of turning stones into gold, but he didn't plan to use it.

First of all, the value of gold in the magic world is not too high. After all, it is not difficult for a wizard to get gold from Muggles. Kanon is actually not pure gold, but a magic smelted with the unique metal forging technology of fairies. Made of metal.

　　 There are three known magic metals: ebony, mithril, and red bronze.

Among them, Ujin is the most widely known for its characteristics of being hard and difficult to dissolve. The "Indestructible Helmet" given to the Giants in Jin Jialong and the original is cast with Ujin; the plasticity of Mithril is strong, so it can be used for casting silver. The Lanfindor Sword"; the lightest red bronze is used to forge Copper Nat and Firebolt.

In the previous life, Schelling spit about the bugs in the exchange rate between Jin Jialong and the British pound in the original book. The value of wizard currency is lower than the value of pure gold in the 90s. Muggle parents can exchange British pounds for gallons and then take gallons. Going to the Muggle gold shop to exchange gold for the pound sterling, and so on repeatedly...Xie Lin has even heard examples of well-known fan fiction using the exchange rate to try to impact the Gringotts financial system.

In this life, he realized that Jin Jialong was not made of pure gold. The goblin added other magic materials in the forging process. In addition to preventing forgery, it also made the gold coins impossible to be destroyed or dissolved, just like the "Indestructible Helmet". . Of course, as a raw material, gold still has considerable value.

Another reason Schelling didn’t want to use the Sage’s Stone was that he didn’t want to reveal the secret of his possession of the Philosopher’s Stone-a large amount of gold flooded into the market, which could easily attract the attention of the Ministry of Magic and some interested people. This is what Schelling tried to do. Avoided.

　　 With such a large sum of money, of course he would not foolishly put it away. He intends to invest.

　　 What he was looking for was a company called "Artificial Mushroom Trading", which is a herbal trading company specializing in cultivating magic mushrooms, as well as international trade in herbal medicines.

(Note: The name of this company comes from the fifth book of the original book. It is included in the various recruitment manuals received by the little wizards during employment consultation. People's Press translated it as "fungus cultivation industry", but this is actually a company. Not an industry)

　　 Schelling couldn't handle this by himself. One morning, when the whole family was having breakfast at the dining table, he told Lucius his thoughts.

Lucius frowned. This is not a small workshop like Elreby and Bardmore's Broomstick Company. Such an international company is worth a lot of money, and it is possible to have a market value of tens of thousands. What's more, Schelling's proposal is comprehensive. Acquisitions, not partnership shares.

He couldn't help asking: "Xie Lin, Dad knows that you have worked hard for your family in the past few years, and your performance has not disappointed Dad, but will you be a bit rushed like this? There is no shortage of money at home, and you are still so. Being young and knowing how to invest is a good thing, but greedy and adventurous are not necessarily."

　　 Schelling also guessed that things were not so easy, he thought about it, and it was time to confess part of the truth with his parents.

　　 "Father, when the matter is up to now, without concealing it from you, the Dark Lord is coming back."

Lucius' eyes shrank slightly, and the hands under the stage shook slightly; Narcissa covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes full of panic; Draco opened her mouth wide, and even knocked over the milk full of milk. The cup is not conscious.

　　 Lucius tried to calm down, but his face was not too ugly, "How did you know?"

"Last semester, a Death Eater appeared at the school. He is Peter Pettigrew. It was actually that he framed Black. Black went to Hogwarts to seek revenge from him. I didn't expect to let him escape in the end. Only Dumbledore, Black, Lupin, and Potter knew about it, but I used some means to eavesdrop on it. The really serious thing is that Harry also got a prophecy. The prophecy said that the little dwarf will be Go find the Dark Lord and help him make a comeback. Do you understand what this means?"

　　 Narcissa interrupted: "It's just a prophecy... Maybe the old man with the white beard got it wrong? Know that most of the so-called prophets are liars."

　　 "This is not necessarily the case, if -" Xie Lin smiled and answered confidently: "Does this prophet predict the failure of the Dark Lord and the rise of Potter?"

　　 At this point, Lucius and Narcissa shut up. The two of them knew that Voldemort was not dead, and the dark mark on Lucius' arm clearly made it clear.

"Wait a minute!" Draco interrupted loudly, "I don't understand. Isn't the return of the Dark Lord a good thing? It just happens to be able to cleanse the mudbloods that have insulted the blood of the wizard again! So that our pureblood family can't return. Is it the pinnacle of power?"

　　 Schelling stared at Draco earnestly: "Believe me, brother, no matter this family or other pure-blood families, most people don't want the Dark Lord to return."

　　Draco has admired the Dark Lord since he was a child, and dreamed of the days when the pure-blood family ruled over Muggles and half-blood wizards. Schelling's words at this moment undoubtedly pierced his heart.

"Impossible! You nonsense! Dad, Mom, tell me, is what my brother said is true?" Draco's eyes flashed in a panic, he felt his heart beating suddenly, and finished this short paragraph. The words made him have to breathe and recover.

　　 Lucius's expression is very complicated, in fact, his mind is like a mess now.

He knew that Schelling was right. He really didn't feel how happy about the return of the Dark Lord. The last time under the leadership of the Dark Lord, the pure blood family was badly injured, Lestrange, Black, and Roach. The family is almost dead. If he weren't smart enough, it is estimated that the small Malfoy family would also become history.

　　 He forcibly put aside distracting thoughts and looked at Draco with pity, "Draco, things are not as simple as you think."

"At the beginning, the pure-blood family chose to support the Dark Lord~lightnovelpub.net~ only because the Dark Lord was able to help us build a world of pure-blooded wizards, but the Dark Lord himself acted too radically and killed too much, which aroused more Rebellion... Think about it, originally we only needed a deterrent to make those mudbloods and hybrid hybrids dare not resist, but the Dark Lord did not leave them alive, so naturally they could only fight to the end..."

"In the final analysis, the basic purpose of the Dark Lord is different from most of our pure-blood families! What the Dark Lord wants is to completely cleanse all Muggle bloodlines, so that his prestige can be forever powerful in the wizarding world... And our purpose It is to establish a pure-blood supremacy system, and let the mixed-blood and Muggle wizards become our vassals, not to kill them all."

　　 Narcissa walked over, hugged Draco gently into her arms, and whispered softly: "Child, you are too young, you shouldn't be responsible for these things..."

Schelling said, "Mother, please don't think of us as children anymore. Not to mention that after the fall of the Dark Lord, we, the Malfoy family, and Avery, Knott, Carlo, etc., a They all chose to betray him. Not only did they leave their relationship with the Death Eaters clean and live a moisturizing life, they also never tried to find the Dark Lord in the past to help him. What do you think the Dark Lord thinks of us? Pure blood family?"

When Lucius heard this, his heart beat suddenly, and the whole person seemed to wake up suddenly, a shrewd look flashed in his eyes, and he said in his heart that he was a fan of the authorities, and his son chose to tell himself this at this time. Obviously he was prepared. Then, instead of worrying and worrying there, why not just ask my son what solution is there?

　　 Thinking of this, his eyes on Schelling began to be meaningful, "Then— Schelling, what do you think we should do in the Malfoy family?"
