She counted out the counts and set the stacks on the counter with a clink. "Anything else?"

6%? What on earth was the 6% for? Was there a fee to exchange money? That seemed ridiculous. All she wanted back was exactly what she was giving, just in a different form. ...What did the goblins do with the Muggle money, anyway? Did they actually have a use for it? Ariel's head was suddenly swimming with questions and she made a mental note to look this up later. About the 6%, she wasn't really forward enough to ask about it.

Her eyes widened when the goblin set all those coins onto the counter. Those....looked heavy. The girl was about to have a long day ahead of her, hauling the money along with all the things she was buying with it. She produced a small purse out of her pocket and slid the coins off the counter into it. "Thank you," she bid the goblin, then shook her head, "That's all."
