Zongman: Simultaneously travel through time and start a one-person chat group

"Good morning, Mr. McGonagall."

"Good morning, Mr. Qiao Qiao. Your father doesn't seem to want to accompany you. Can you be alone?"

"No problem,"

Qiao Qiao never thought of relying on others. Not everyone is Lu Bu in the world, wandering for half a lifetime without meeting anyone...

He really has no feelings for the parents in this world, especially after knowing that these people are scum.

"I am enough on my own, and I believe he thinks so too."

Qiao Qiao's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant. Although he was young, he was full of the maturity of an adult.

It was enough to slightly ease Professor McGonagall's frown.

"Next, we will go to Diagon Alley to buy your future school supplies,"

Mag kindly reminded him and said:

"Mr. Qiao Qiao, you don't need to worry about money in this regard. Freshmen like you are given subsidies... We may not be able to guarantee that you will be able to use the best, but you can use new wands and textbooks."

Mag thought carefully before saying this.

After all, according to the investigation, Professor McGonagall knew that this was a family that fled to Inglis to avoid the war...

A ruined former aristocratic Muggle family.

The servants were dismissed and the family was so poor that they could barely make ends meet.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, but I have my own savings."

Qiao Qiao blinked his eyes and smiled, saying, "When I heard that Hogwarts was a school, I naturally had to prepare for money. After all, even the wizarding world cannot escape the mundane laws of economics."

Hearing this, Professor McGonagall nodded with satisfaction, then waved her hand and used a teleportation technique to bring Qiao Qiao and her to the extremely classic entrance to the wizarding world - the Leaky Cauldron.

"These two here are new students who will be attending Hogwarts just like you."

There were already two other groups of people in the Leaky Cauldron.

Adults and children.

Professor McGonagall, the headmaster of Gryffindor School, is responsible for guiding little wizards who are suddenly born into ordinary Muggle families.

And these immature little wizards... to put it bluntly, they are just children and need to be led by guardians from their original Muggle families.

When the guardians saw Qiao Qiao coming, they subconsciously looked for Qiao Qiao's guardian, intending to discuss it like parents discussing their child's excellence.

"Gentlemen, now that everyone is here, please follow me," said Professor McGonagall.

"Professor McGonagall, can I ask the parents of this child..."

"Mr. Qiao Qiao, one person is enough."

Professor McGonagall said as she drew her wand from her bosom, walked to the back of the Leaky Cauldron, and knocked on the wall of the narrow little well.

Suddenly, a beam of sunlight shone into the small patio.

A winding, endless cobblestone street slowly appeared.

Qiao Qiao couldn't help but smile knowingly as he watched this classic scene from his childhood.

Mag glanced at Qiao Qiao's indifferent expression. The scene before her eyes was so exciting that even adults were excited, but this twelve-year-old child acted as if it was a matter of course, as if he already knew what was going to happen.

"Mr. Qiao Qiao doesn't seem surprised by this." Professor McGonagall asked curiously.

"Maybe it's because I'm braver."

17. Gold is hard currency, how much do you need? Is half a ton enough?

Qiao Qiao didn't care whether Mag had discovered his peculiarity or not. He took out his shopping list and said, "Wands, books, and pets. The total is about two hundred and fifty pounds."

A guardian immediately asked in surprise: "Wizards also accept pounds?"

"Of course... no, wizards have their own currency. I will take you to the wizard bank, Gringotts, later, and you will exchange gold Galleons, silver Sickles, and copper Knuts there."

Professor McGonagall briefly explained the economics of the wizarding world.

What McGonagall didn't say was that a certain amount of foreign exchange was quite beneficial to wizards.

So he brought a group of people to Gringotts.

Inside, there were numerous tall seats with various dwarfs in gold-studded uniforms.

"This is a goblin. They are not very friendly to us humans."

Mag then said to a goblin, "This year's freshmen need to exchange some Galleons here."

Next, the other little wizards exchanged a sum of shiny gold Galleons with their respective guardians.

"It's your turn, Mr. Little. How many pounds would you like to exchange for Galleons?"

While the goblin was talking, Professor McGonagall couldn't help but look at Qiao Qiao with curiosity.

In terms of appearance, behavior, and manners, Qiao Qiao could be said to be the most mature freshman Mag had ever seen.

He doesn't look like a child, but rather like a mature and steady adult.

And yet he actually said that he didn't need the original work of the academy and didn't need Garlon.

Could it be that the poor family who couldn't even afford to eat had dug up any gold Galleons?

To be honest, Mag didn't believe it.

"You should go home to your father." said a little child.

The other freshmen and their guardians looked at Qiao Qiao with amusement, waiting to see a joke.

In their opinion, even if a boy has savings, how much can he have?

Only Qiao Qiao looked at the goblin calmly and asked, "I've seen that there is an upper limit for exchanging pounds here. What about exchanging gold here? The upper limit for exchanging gold is..."

"Of course, but gold trading is not limited by the pound quota. We will take as many as we can get. The current gold exchange rate is enough to get quite a generous amount of gold galleons."

The fairy also introduced the ratio of gold galleons to gold.

In this era, the Cold War in the Muggle world has not yet ended.

However, the biggest feature of this era is that it is a time of chaos, so gold is very valuable.

Even if the wizarding world wants to isolate him from the influence of the outside world.

However, after all, part of the gold exchange rate in the real world also affects the currency exchange rate changes in the wizarding world.

Wizards want to get rid of Muggles, but Muggles still influence wizards after all.

This is the economics of this world.

As for the gold galleon, this currency is an ancient form of metal currency transaction.

However, it is not necessarily beyond the understanding of the people on Earth. In essence, it is a currency made of a small amount of gold wrapped in some kind of wizard's magic.

Its value cannot be equal to gold.

……

After understanding it a little, Qiao Qiao smiled and nodded.

To be honest, Qiao Qiao himself was so poor that he could hardly breathe.

If he were really asked to pay for it, he might not be able to afford it.

However, after I made a guarantee for myself in Despicable Me World, this embarrassing situation was solved -

In the chat group——

Hogwarts Qiao Qiao: "I'm in Diagon Alley and can't afford to buy wands and books. I need pounds to unfreeze the gold I have stored in Gringotts..."

Despicable Me Qiao Qiao: "I originally wanted to rely on you to find gold, but it turns out that each of you is poorer than me... Forget it, I'll support you first. I'll pay for your Hogwarts tuition. Study magic well."

Hogwarts Qiao Qiao: "Boss, you are so generous!"

Despicable Me Qiao Qiao "I don't know if the British pound will work, let's talk about gold hard currency, how much do you need, is half a ton enough?"

"..."

"..."

"One box?"

"..."

"A pound?"

To be honest, it was everyone who misunderstood Qiao Qiao in Despicable Me. Qiao Qiao was very materialistic and said he wanted a lot of gold.

This may look very poor, but in fact, it is a comparison.

Focusing on military research, is the money spent really spent? No, it is burned!

As a result, a small profit from the military expenditure of Qiao Qiao in the Despicable Me world for researching weapons is enough for Qiao Qiao in many other worlds to live a comfortable life.

The same is true for Qiao Qiao in the Hogwarts world.

……

"Oh wow, gold!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

Everyone was suddenly stunned as they watched Qiao Qiao take out a gold brick from his trouser pocket.

The little action of taking it out is just pretending.

There was definitely no gold in the bag before, but if you accept a [red envelope] from the chat group, it will be in your hands.

"Gold for Galleons. Is that ok?"

The fairy was slightly stunned when looking at such a large piece of gold. It was not until Qiao Qiao asked that he immediately responded: "Well, of course, if it is real gold..."

There was a gleam in the goblins' eyes as they carefully used their special tools to wash away the magic on it, which could render the Transfiguration Spell ineffective and prevent anyone from being deceived.

Then they roasted it with flames, and then they used instruments to weigh and measure it...

“It is, without a doubt, genuine gold.”

The fairy exclaimed in amazement, and his gaze towards Qiao Qiongha changed from indifference and disdain at the beginning to extremely warm.

"This is really an incomparable amount of wealth. Thousands of Galleons. It must be very inconvenient to carry this amount of money with you..."

"I know. Let's open an account here. I need to be able to take the rest with me. You know that gold galleons are very heavy..."

At Qiao Qiao's suggestion, he got a telescopic bag specially for storing gold for free.

As for such a large sum of money as Qiao Qiao, the fairy was quite polite in welcoming and seeing him off along the way.

The others who followed Mag were all confused.

It was not until Mag came to his senses and remembered Qiao Qiao and the house where his father lived that it could not be called wealthy.

Professor McGonagall couldn't help but be curious: "Where did you get so much money? I mean, gold."

"This is... a secret. Professor McGonagall only needs to know that this was obtained legally."

"As for where I live, I can only say that I live in secrecy and don't show my wealth to others."

Qiao Qiao grinned, showing the innocent smile of a young boy.

"The little guy has a lot of secrets."

However, McGonagall did not object to the secret creed of wizards. She just lamented that she had never expected such a thing.

Because Mag had even applied for funding for Qiao Qiao in advance.

18.No magic wand could resist Tom's temptation.

"Next, should we buy wands?"

"As a wizard, the most important thing is naturally the wand in his hand, isn't it?"

Next, Mag led everyone to another classic location.
