Chapter 648: New Ideas for Making Money, All for Magic

"Tell me in detail."

Andy looked curious. "Is it related to Borgin and Burkes?"

Amycus Carrow: "..."

You've made it obvious that you don't want to let me go, but you're still asking me to give you information?

Are you daydreaming?

As much as I fear death, if it's inevitable, I don't mind causing you a little trouble.

"Forget it; if you don't want to tell me, that's fine!"

Seeing that Carrow remained silent, Andy didn't care.

After fighting Voldemort, Andy felt much more confident now and simply wasn't afraid of Voldemort's tricks.

He only has two tricks up his sleeve.

Without absolute strength to suppress others, Voldemort's subordinates, except for the die-hard Death Eaters, were all fence-sitters.

Under these circumstances, what kind of plan can Voldemort possibly pull off?

His future is doomed!

"Wait!" Seeing that Andy was losing patience, Carrow became anxious.

"I know a lot of the Dark Lord's secrets!"

"Collins…you don't necessarily have to kill me; trust me! Apart from the Dark Lord's secrets, I also have a lot of money."

Carrow said anxiously, "The Carrow family is one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight pureblood families, and we have a long line of inheritance... Apart from the British magical community, we also have businesses in Europe."

Andy: "..."

This...

To be honest, Andy was a little tempted.

Money is an important possession in both the Muggle world and the magical world, and it can solve most of the worldly problems.

If Andy had eternal life and great power, then money would indeed become insignificant to him.

But the problem is... Andy is still a humble mortal.

Not to mention other things, Andy plans to study alchemy next year, which is a big expense or even a bottomless pit.

Andy's meagre savings cannot support such a huge drain.

Seeing that Andy seemed to have second thoughts, Carrow hurriedly continued, "I can give you a large sum of money, a lot of money... Cough, cough. Collins, don't kill me, please."

"I thought you would have some backbone," Andy ridiculed.

Carrow: You, who have been bought by money, don't seem to be much better than me.

Although he thought this in his heart, he didn't dare say it out loud.

"Apart from those lunatics, no pureblood family will truly pledge allegiance to the Dark Lord," Carrow said.

That was true.

Voldemort managed to win over many pureblood families initially by relying on the 'pureblood supremacy' concept. However, once Voldemort gained power, everything changed.

Voldemort ultimately cared only about himself.

After thinking for a moment, Andy said, "I can let you go back, but I have two conditions."

"No!"

Carrow's face paled. "I can't go back; the Dark Lord will kill me!"

"You can tell Voldemort that I let you go back."

Andy laughed. "You bought your life back with money; that's a pretty good reason."

Carrow's lips twitched.

It was indeed a pretty good reason, and it was also important information about Andy. If Voldemort knew about this, he might even praise him.

"What's the condition?" Carrow asked.

Andy held up five fingers.

"Five hundred thousand gold galleons?"

Carrow agreed without hesitation, "No problem!"

Andy: "..."

No! I want fifty thousand.

Andy couldn't help but fall into a bout of self-doubt. If I had just said fifty thousand gold galleons now, would I have been despised?

"Do you have that kind of money?" Andy couldn't help but ask.

"Er..."

Carrow was taken aback but quickly explained, "It's all the wealth my ancestors have accumulated, and I have to sell some of my properties."

"But you agreed so readily." Andy wasn't convinced.

"I just want to live, and I can pay anything for that," Carrow said anxiously.

Andy thought about it for a while and said, "Then it's settled."

He had really underestimated these Pureblood families before.

Even a relatively lesser-known family like the Carrows is so rich, not to mention the famous Malfoys and Blacks.

How rich are they?

Thinking of the Black family's luxury tent, Andy felt a surge of envy. He suspected that all his wealth would only be enough to buy a few ornaments.

"Second..."

Andy continued, "I need a Death Eater."

"What do you need a Death Eater for?" Carrow was taken aback.

In recent times, the name Andy Collins has been heard everywhere.

The reason Carrow was so afraid was because he knew very well that Andy would not show mercy to Death Eaters.

But...

A Death Eater?

That was a strange request!

"I need one for my magic experiments," Andy said with a smile.

Carrow felt a chill run down his spine.

At this moment, Carrow was incredibly grateful to his ancestors. Thanks to the huge wealth they had left for their descendants, he had escaped a fate worse than death.

"Yes, I will find a way," Carrow said hastily.

"Then... congratulations, you are free."

After saying this, Andy took out his wand and pressed it against Carrow's right arm, leaving a magic mark on it. "Don't even think about running; I can find you at any time."

"Of, course!" Carrow replied quickly.

"Speaking of which..."

Andy suddenly asked, "Why did Voldemort attack the Ministry of Magic?"

Dumbledore had explained, but it was too rough.

If it was just to find spies around him, then he wouldn't have let Snape lead the attack on the Ministry of Magic. This was simply not Voldemort's style.

Logically, if Voldemort suspected Snape, he would have simply used his favourite Avada Kedavra on him.

There was no need for any further screening.

"He's a madman..."

Carrow said, "Although I am also a Death Eater, I must say that the Dark Lord has gone insane, and he is capable of doing anything."

Andy nodded slightly on hearing this.

Because Andy had come to this exact same conclusion before.

Voldemort wanted to rule the wizarding world because he considered himself supreme. It wasn't because of some great ideal or political purpose.

He ruled for the sake of ruling, which was fundamentally different from Grindelwald.

That's why Voldemort could do whatever he wanted.

"Tell me about the plan!"

Andy asked again, "What was Voldemort up to?"

"Borgin and Burkes had a Vanishing Cabinet, and the other one was at Hogwarts," Carrow said, almost as if he knew everything.

So that's it!

Andy instantly understood. 

A Vanishing Cabinet consists of two interconnecting cabinets. After entering one cabinet, you can reach the other one.

"He wants to attack Hogwarts?" Andy felt that Voldemort must have gone mad.

"It's a surprise attack!"

Carrow explained, "No one can be on guard all the time, and for many people, Hogwarts is the safest place."

Andy nodded slightly. "It does sound good, and the chances of success are high."

Carrow smiled awkwardly on hearing this.

"Alright...you go back by yourself!"

Having finished asking the questions he wanted to ask, Andy had no intention of staying. "As long as you can fool Voldemort, you will survive."
