Summary: Miles has just made a rather shrewd investment.
Miles signed the parchment with a flourish, the transaction completed as he smugly took hold of the deeds. Shaking the former owner's hand he knew he'd screwed the bastard into the wall on the price of the old place.
But how could anyone not see the potential? Miles could already see the galleons passing over the bar, the music playing and the grand deals being transacted in the smoking room. It's exactly what the upper class wizards needed. And it was all his.
Well, to be truthful, this was all just a charm he'd put on the place to get an idea. When it ended, all he saw was a huge empty shell of a warehouse. It was the perfect spot to build his club, and become the true saviour of the wizarding social scene.
That's of course if the Ministry would approve of his plan. How could they say no? Anything to boost the morale of everyone (pureblood and with enough money to spend) after such a long period of boredom war.
He couldn't lose. Miles Bletchley always took the sure bet, and this was odds on the best decision he'd ever made.
The foundation cornerstone of the new Bletchley world order. He'd have to show Verity - once he'd had it cleaned up, and West as well. They'd appreciate his vision of the future.
