Chapter 108: Making Money
After all, it was a new house, so other than typical furniture. There was nothing else that could surprise people.
Not long after, everyone finished visiting the entire house and returned to the living room on the first floor.
On the brand-new sofa, George took out a pair of glasses from his pocket, placed them on the coffee table, and asked Coven, "This is what you asked me to prepare. So, can you tell me the details of the plan now?"
"Of course."
This time, Coven no longer kept them in suspense. After looking around at his friends, he began to tell them about his money-making plan in detail.
"First of all, there are many destitute nobles in England." Coven looked at Penelope. "How are things on your side? Has uncle found a suitable person?"
"I have no problem here." Penelope nodded. "Dad has already found the most famous detective, but in the future, you have to pay for the employment fees in the future. Dad has spent a lot of money this time."
"Don't worry. I guarantee that you will become a rich woman in one holiday."
Coven joked, then continued to talk about the plan. "The reason why I asked Penelope's family to help me find those poor nobles is that the families of those poor nobles basically have some antiques, and they are very short of money. And our goal is to buy antiques from them at a low price!"
"Antiques?" George scratched the back of his head in confusion. He had no idea about antiques.
George was the same. He didn't know how to make money with antiques, and it was the' big money 'that Coven mentioned.
Coven temporarily ignored the twins' confusion and turned to Cho Chang. "How are the preparations on your side?"
"It's a little difficult, but it barely meets senior's requirements." Cho Chang said softly, a little ladylike, "Dad has already contacted the East. He transferred a lot of relatives before contacting some collectors."
"Thank you very much!" Coven thanked her happily.
"No, no need." Cho Chang was a little embarrassed and waved her hand.
Coven returned the smile, then looked around at the crowd and said, "So my plan is to let the detectives help us find those poor nobles, then we will move out and buy antiques from them. Finally, we will sell the antiques through the buyer that Cho Chang contacted in the east!"
"Where is our initial capital?" Penelope grasped the key point. "I mean, where do we get the money to buy antiques?"
"I borrowed money from Gringotts." Coven replied, "Dumbledore, the Headmaster, as the guarantor, mortgaged the technology of a kind of 'alchemy item' I developed. A total of 100,000 gold from Gringotts. In exchange, there are about 500,000 pounds, enough for us to buy antiques!"
The twins exclaimed in unison, "100,000 Galleon!"
Penelope was also very shocked. Whether it was gold Galleon or pounds, they were both numbers that she could not imagine.
Cho Chang was even more shocked. After all, she was only from an ordinary wizard family and an outcast immigrant family, so she had naturally never heard of such a huge sum.
After a while, Penelope was the first to come back to her senses. She nodded and said, "Then I have no problem. When are we going to start?"
"Of course, the sooner, the better. As long as the detective reports to us!"
Coven picked up the glasses that George had placed on the coffee table. "This is enchanted glasses. Through it, we can see the 'age' of antiques."
After saying that, Coven put the glasses back on the coffee table, then took out his wand, and the next moment, the glasses suddenly split rapidly and finally split into five.
Of course, everyone knew what Coven meant, so they all stretched out their hands and chose a pair of glasses to wear.
"How long can your duplication spell last?"
Through the enchanted glasses, Penelope asked casually while looking around at the 'age' of various furnishings in the living room.
"About a week," Coven replied, "But I can copy it for everyone at any time."
As he spoke, Coven held the main body of the glasses in his hand and said, "The main body is with me. It is convenient to copy it at any time."
At this time, Coven felt that someone was pulling his sleeve. He turned around and saw Spelite sitting next to him, looking at him anxiously.
Suddenly, Coven smiled and used the 'Copy Spell' again. He copied another pair of glasses and handed it to the little loli.
Spelite happily took the glasses and immediately put them on her face. She looked around like Penelope.
...
...
Coven had been very busy during this entire holiday.
The money-making plan went very smoothly, and Coven had already made a detailed plan. When they went out to buy antiques, they all drank the 'Polyjuice potion' that Coven had prepared beforehand.
Although the taste of the 'Polyjuice potion' was really hard to accept, for the sake of safety, everyone still pinched their noses and drank it, then turned into the appearance of an adult and went to buy antiques from the various impoverished nobles.
The acquisition took a month and a total of more than 300 antiques from the east.
Among them, there were more than thirty treasures from a long time ago, and the rest were antiques from the Ming and Qing period.
Initially, everyone had encountered more treasures, but unfortunately, those impoverished nobles knew the value of the antiques, which made it difficult for Coven and the others to fool and pick up scraps.
However, Coven did not care. Originally, he only planned to do this for the time being and temporarily get some money, enough to spend.
After the acquisition, Coven asked Ollivander to help him buy a 'Traceless Extension Box', and put all the antiques into the space as if it were for a huge box like a small world.
Then, Coven drank the 'Polyjuice Potion' and flew to the east on a plane alone. He met the collectors in Cho Chang's house in Hong Kong.
Following the principle of 'selling', Coven sold all the more than three hundred antiques at a low price, but even so, he gained nearly one hundred and fifty million pounds.
After that, Coven went to the United States and contacted his classmates who returned to the United States after the holiday - Tabor Starrow.
With the help of Tabor, Coven exchanged all the pounds in the American Bank for gold and finally returned to Diagon Alley with a lot of gold.
It was no wonder that wizards hated those fairies in Gringotts Bank's magic world because they were too good at lowering prices.
If not for the fact that Coven didn't want to run around and toss around, he definitely wouldn't exchange gold for Gringotts Bank.
Because of nearly 150 million gold, Coven only managed to exchange it for 25 million galleons.
Normally, it should have been able to exchange for 30 million galleons.
