"Very good, it seems you haven't relaxed your standards during this time. As you can see, Magic Financial Investment Company is worth tens of billions of pounds. They need a group of people to protect their overseas assets and came to me, and the first people I thought of were you. Annual salary of £100,000, plus all the benefits you had in the military."

The only downside to performing security duties is that we're often stationed overseas, and I don't know where exactly right now. So what do you all think?

"Of course we'll follow the captain!"

"That's right, I'll go wherever the captain goes!"

"I just want to be with my brothers!"

"Hehehe, I knew the captain wouldn't abandon us. The job I found was incredibly boring; training with you guys is much more fun."

"Alright, since there are no problems, let's go sign the contract in a bit. I've reached an agreement with the general to acquire an abandoned military camp in the suburbs of London. From now on, the offices will be here, and we'll be stationed there normally! Have you packed your things? We'll head over there in a bit. Also, remember to keep a copy of the list of the weapons and equipment you need; the company will pay for them for you."

"Wow, really, Captain? You know I wanted to upgrade my equipment when I was in the SAS, but those old men in the military wouldn't let me."

"You'd better buy everything at once, or I won't replace anything you forget!"

"Thank you, Captain, I love you even more now!"

"Get out! Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Yes, Captain!"

"Tell me what's wrong! I'll try my best to help you!"

"I'd like to ask that lady what kind of man she likes. Does she like someone as muscular as me?"

"Wow~~"

"Are you crazy, Tank? That's the boss's woman!"

"Hahaha, you're dead!"

"Alright, stop fooling around! He's a Cambridge University graduate, you're only fit to eat dirt in the ground, don't even think about it!"

"Hahahaha... Tank, you're really pathetic."

The office was filled with laughter after the business was finished. Lee Christmas called his secretary, who brought a stack of employment contracts and handed them to each of the new hires.

Lee Christmas was quite touched that the men signed their names without even looking at them. His brothers trusted him and didn't resent him for the accident. After leaving the equipment list, he led his men to an abandoned military camp on the outskirts of London. It was called an abandoned camp because urban development meant it was no longer used as a military base, but the Magic Security Company could easily buy it as a rest and recuperation base; this would be Lee Christmas and his men's future home.

Over the next month, Lee Christmas used his connections to find some former retired comrades and elites from various countries he had met while on missions. Later, with Catherine's help, they recruited members of the US Navy SEALs, the Russian Alpha Group, the Russian Vympel Special Forces, and the German KSK Special Forces. In short, this 120-man company was filled with all sorts of skilled individuals.

The most outrageous thing is that Ms. Catherine somehow found a soldier from China. This soldier wasn't easy to get along with because whenever people asked him which unit he was from, he would reply that he was a pig farmer in a low-level company. That's just insulting! We're all from special forces units around the world, what business is a pig farmer like you having getting involved?

Until one training exercise, he single-handedly took down an entire SEAL team of twelve men in a day and a night, and then no one asked about it anymore.

The tides rise and fall, and March arrives quickly. The weather in England is already warming up in March, and the Hogwarts students have shed their heavy winter clothes. It's the weekend, but the Quidditch pitch was bustling with activity at nine o'clock this morning.

Today was Quidditch match day, with the first game being between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. Wizards from both houses finished breakfast early and arrived at the Quidditch pitch to reserve their spots, while students from the other two houses simply went to whichever side had fewer people.

Andres, as the principal, also came to the stadium, followed by a group of professors. Darius was the host for today's commentary; as the president of the male students' council, it was difficult to show favoritism towards Gryffindor, so his commentary was fairly standard.

However, Darius was very excited when Gryffindor scored, but he spoke with a regretful tone when Hufflepuff scored. Despite this, the young wizards present didn't mind and focused on the game.

The first Quidditch match lasted for more than three hours, mainly because the competition was so fierce that neither side wanted to lose the first match since the founding of Hogwarts. They tried their best to interfere with the opponent's Seeker so that they could not catch the Snitch, while at the same time trying to score more goals.

The final score was 580 to 490, with Gryffindor winning. Gryffindor's Seeker, Tang Zhihong, caught the Golden Snitch at the last moment, allowing Gryffindor to take the lead and end the match. The entire Gryffindor team cheered and rushed onto the field. In their celebration, they tossed Tang Zhihong high into the air.

The Hufflepuff wizards left the field dejectedly; their players had led the entire match but failed to catch the Golden Snitch and lost. The other two teams watching from the sidelines quickly reviewed the game and adjusted their tactics to avoid repeating the mistakes made by both sides.

After returning to the principal's office, Andres suddenly remembered some events that had occurred in China in 2008. He then began writing a letter to Catherine, the gist of which was...

"Catherine, how's your situation going? Have you found a location for the herbal medicine base in the Middle East? How's the security company doing? Are they ready to carry out the mission?"

Also, how's the supermarket plan going in Longguo? I need you to build a warehouse in Wenchuan City, Sichuan Province, Longguo. This warehouse needs to be sturdy enough to withstand strong earthquakes.

This warehouse is to store large quantities of mineral water, self-heating food, medicine, and daily necessities, with a storage capacity based on a standard of 100,000 people for 10 days.

We also need to prepare 10,000 empty shipping containers in that open area, along with some rescue equipment and medical devices.

After writing the letter, Andres asked Dobby to have it mailed to Catherine by owl. A few hours later, he received a reply, a very short letter with only a few words.

"??? It's already been arranged."

Andres thought it would be better to talk to Catherine in person, so he Apparated to his home in London, called Catherine, and told her to wait in the office.

A few minutes later, Andres Apparated into Catherine's office.

"What? Boss, you mean you predicted that there would be a destructive earthquake in Wenchuan City, Sichuan Province in May?"

"It wasn't me, it was our divination professor, the centaur Ferenze, who predicted it."

"That's the same, it's terrifying. Luckily we can prepare in advance. I wonder what else you can divine?"

"That's all. Oh, by the way, go to the Chinese embassy and come up with a reason to get the students out of there between May 11th and May 13th!"

"this?"
