“OK!” Ron confidently straightened his clothes. Although the month-long special training was extremely tough, he also gained unparalleled rewards!

His shoulders were much broader than before, making him look like a clothes hanger, turning his ordinary clothes into something that looked like a model's outfit.

His bulging pectoral muscles and thick arms were the envy of his peers, especially Ximo. His sunken, thin cheeks were sharply defined, and he was good enough to walk the Balenciaga fashion show.

Seeing the adoration and love in Lavender's eyes, Ron walked even more arrogantly.

Seeing the gleam in Lavender's eyes, Jimmy smiled with satisfaction. The two of them were about to become a couple; they were just one step away from making it official.

If we work harder later, the two of us can get married next year!

In the Wizarding World, there is no age limit of 16 for marriage, so it will be just right for them to get married next year!

"Hey Jimmy, all alone?"

Another elfin-like girl emerged from the castle; it was Hydra. She didn't seem very happy because Harry couldn't go to Hogsmeade with her.

Jimmy shook his head and said, "No, I made an appointment with Hermione. She left something in her dorm room."

“It’s a shame Harry can’t come to Hogsmeade.” Hydra’s eyes held a hint of envy; she had already noticed the relationship between Jimmy and Hermione.

“You should stay in the castle and keep Harry company. He must be very lonely. It would be better if you went to Hogsmeade together next time.”

Jimmy's proposal appealed to Hydra.

"Awaited."

Hermione came out of the castle, her face flushed red from running.

Today, Hermione wore a brown trench coat and matching flared pants, and her hair seemed styled, not as messy as before.

Seeing Hydra there, Hermione raised her hand in greeting, "Hydra, are you going to Hogsmeade?"

"I won't go this time. You guys go have fun, I'll keep Harry company." Hydra smiled sweetly, then turned and went back into the castle.

She had to go and keep poor Harry company, who was left all alone in the castle.

……

When Jimmy and Hermione arrived at Hogsmeade, shoulder to shoulder, the street was already packed with people. Hogsmeade Week was always the busiest time of year on the street.

Jimmy's Continental Bar, in particular, has free chessboards for people to play auto chess or cards.

The development of the third and fourth generation cards has already begun, and it is believed that the first mainland bar will soon have more entertainment products, and children in the Wizarding World will be able to play more games.

Jimmy and Hermione had been to Hogsmeade many times before and had lost their sense of novelty; they were only there for work.

Jimmy didn't want to work, but Hermione insisted that he take responsibility for his career.

The two gradually moved away from the bustling streets and soon found the Cyber ​​Group headquarters, an ordinary three-story building.

Entering through the main entrance, you are greeted by a simply yet elegantly decorated lobby. Behind the reception desk directly opposite the entrance stand two female employees in professional uniforms, and there are quite a few people moving around in the lobby.

There were domestic wizards, foreign wizards, and a few fairies.

Upon seeing Jimmy and Hermione arrive, the busy receptionist immediately sent someone out to guide them into the internal elevator to the third floor.

Jimmy and Hermione had given prior notice, and the company's senior management was already waiting in the conference room on the third floor.

The conference room on the third floor was decorated in a similar style to the one downstairs, with white as the main color. A long table was placed in the middle of the conference room, and all the senior executives of Cyber ​​Group sat on both sides of the long table, waiting nervously.

Whether their work this month will be recognized and whether their positions will change will be decided at this meeting.

Light footsteps came from outside the door, and everyone looked at the two people who appeared at the door. Immediately, some sensible people stood up.

Seeing that the quick-witted employees had all stood up, the dull-witted person also stood up.

"Good morning, Chairman!"

Senior Yuna was wearing a suit jacket and seemed to be adapting well to her position as president; she had also become much more tactful.

"Hmm~!" Jimmy, with his hands behind his back, sat down with Hermione at the end of the long table facing the whiteboard and said in a serious tone, "Let's give a brief report on our work."

Senior Yuna skillfully flipped through her notebook, enlarged a piece of paper, and pasted it on the blackboard, reporting: "Cyber ​​Group has recruited 63 new employees: 31 at the company headquarters, 16 at Blaine Potions, 6 at Raccoon Alchemy Workshop, and 10 at Continental Bar."

The group currently has a total of 131 employees.

Total revenue for September was 65873 Gallons, expenses were 34887 Gallons, an additional grant of 12000 Gallons from the mainland hotel, and a profit of 18986 Gallons.

Overall revenue is on the rise...

There's a lot to say, but actually not much.

How many potions were sold? How many distributors were secured...?

How many game boards and card packs has the Alchemy Workshop sold? What's the progress of the new game's development?

There's also the overt operation and profitability of bars in mainland China...

After listening to the report, Jimmy nodded in satisfaction. There was nothing in the company that needed to be adjusted at the moment.

“There will be new industries in the coming period. I have already written the general plan. You can handle the details.”

The fitness industry, spurred by the group, is an untapped market. As long as the Cyber ​​Group can create demand among wizards, the gyms will bring the Cyber ​​Group at least 100,000 Galleons in revenue every year!

Furthermore, it can boost sales and expand the business of Raccoon Alchemy Workshop.

Those pure-blood families haven't sealed off the patents on alchemical fitness equipment yet, so this time it's his turn to monopolize it!

Senior Yuna, wearing high heels, quickly came up and took the documents without using magic.

There are three documents: one is a general plan for opening a gym, another is Qunbolong's thesis, and the last is a plan for Ron and Lavender to be brand ambassadors.

"Alright, let's balance work and rest. We'll take two more days off after Halloween to relax."

After finishing with the Cyber ​​Corporation, Jimmy led Hermione through the Floo Network to the second Continental Bar on the outer edge of Hogsmeade.

The hotel manager, Gregorio Marquez, dressed in a suit early in the morning, waited in front of the fireplace with his deputy and the heads of the armory, post station, train station, and clinic.

After a month-long investigation into the Burke family, it's time to summarize.

Chapter 219 The Burke Family Business

Any large organization is a large company, and every company strives to build itself into a highly ordered collective, trying to make people who come to work feel like they are contributing to the country.

The current management model for the roundtable is similar: to instill a sense of collective honor in its members, to impose strict rules, and to ensure that they remain steadfastly on the side of the roundtable even if they do not receive a salary.

"Grand Knight Commander." Greymarx greeted Jimmy immediately upon seeing him, then looked at Hermione and respectfully called out, "Chief Judge."

Before managing a large organization, Grégoire Márquez saw Jimmy as a frog in a well looking up at the moon; after managing a large organization, seeing Jimmy again was like an ant seeing the blue sky.

There is a world of difference between people, and people in the magical world have imagined countless times what kind of terrifying power the strongest wizards would possess.

The first Dark Lord, Grindelwald, gathered thousands of followers and swept across Europe, but was ultimately defeated by Dumbledore.

Tom, the second-generation Dark Lord, was incredibly powerful and controlled England, but was comically killed by a child.

The Jimmy before me was unlike either of the other two; he was shrouded in mystery, born with innate knowledge, and to this day, no one has been able to replicate his ability to manipulate events with a wave of his hand during his speeches.

Jimmy is like an abyss; ordinary people probably cannot fathom his extraordinary wisdom.

Those notorious black magicians were like clay chickens and earthen dogs in Jimmy's hands, forced to grovel on the ground and kiss the soles of his shoes in gratitude for the chance to reform that Jimmy had given them.

Such a person, who combines wisdom, strength, and power, can already stir up trouble even before graduating from Hogwarts. Joining him now will be a great service to the country in the future.

Grégoire Marquez didn't quite understand the story of how a certain Eastern power "supported the emperor" (or "helped the emperor rise to power"), but he did understand that if Jimmy became successful in the future, they would also benefit from his success.

Even if you don't have the honor and status of being ennobled or appointed as prime minister now, you might have it in the future!

The heads of the other departments also bowed slightly to the two men, their eyes filled with eagerness. The more they profited within this system, the more they respected Jimmy.

Jimmy's wisdom, like the sun on the horizon, warmed their hearts!

There are two suns in the world. One is the sun in the sky, the ordinary sun; the other sun is Jimmy. Standing in front of Jimmy, they can feel the sun warming the world, their blood boiling under the sun's warmth, and tears flowing uncontrollably from their eyes.

Jimmy ~ Loyalty!

The combat manual was still not finished, but when Jimmy was arranging the work of the Round Table, he forcibly applied the military's strict rules of command to the Round Table.

Seeing that the group had complied quite well, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. Then, his expression turned serious. "Show me the results of your work!"

“I need to review the recent logs and accounts,” Hermione said sternly, demanding that they hand over the records for her review.

Power, if left unchecked, can easily spiral out of control. She also promised to use Harry's investment carefully, and the first thing she did upon arriving at the Continental Bar was to retrieve the accounting records.

Although Grand Knight Commander Jimmy and the Chief Justice were never at the Round Table, the dark wizards marked with the Laborer's Mark remained loyal to them.

By combining those people's testimonies with the records, we can determine whether it is true or false.

"All of this is ready, and the accounts and action reports are all stored in the database."

The database is a closed space built by Jimmy, accessible only by a key, which is held by only two people: the Grand Knight Commander and the Chief Justice.

Both keys are required to access the database and view information. Jimmy hands a box to Hermione, and the two immediately separate.

Two of the former slaves dressed as waiters who were standing around the room followed Hermione away, while the rest went to the conference room in the Continental Bar.

Greymarques took out a large stack of documents and placed them in front of Jimmy, who was sitting at the head of the table. "This contains intelligence on the Burke family, including family members, the number of their businesses, their business relationships, and information on some Ministry of Magic members who are related to the Burke family."

"Let me give you a brief overview." Jimmy felt a headache coming on when he saw this huge pile of information, so he decided to just listen to the briefing and then compare everything back at school.

“Yes!” Greymarques took a few steps to the blackboard and began to draw a mind map, just like Jimmy did during his speech. “The current head of the Burke family is Karaktakus. There are six active members in the family, all of whom are descendants of Karaktakus.”

Karaktakus's descendants are involved in various businesses, including the manufacture and sale of dark magic items, the smuggling of magical creatures, the human trafficking, the production of magical materials, magical creature security, and assassination.

Greymarques explained in detail: "The production and sale of dark magic items can be done through Borgin Burkes, but dark wizards who have the friendship of the Burke family can buy more dark magic items in the market deep in Knockturn Alley. Borgin Burkes is just a small shop that is used to attract the attention of the Ministry of Magic."

The Burke family also has a poaching team that specializes in poaching magical animals around the world and also handles the disposal of stolen goods for poachers.

The Burke family also kidnaps Muggles and sells them to dark wizards for money.

The Burke family also has some legitimate businesses, such as cultivating herbs or producing magical materials.

They also tamed ferocious dark magic creatures to sell to wizards who needed security, and the Burke family also had an assassination business.

Somewhat astonished, Jimmy picked out the key information that needed attention and began to examine it more carefully. He discovered that the dark wizard community was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

He committed murder, arson, and smuggling—he did it all.

The wizarding black market was far more prosperous than he had imagined; there were probably tens of thousands of wizards, dark magic creatures, and fairies in the world.

Suddenly, Jimmy noticed an important but not very detailed document and asked with displeasure, "Why is there no information about the assassin?"

Greymarques replied nervously, "This business is known only to the core members of the Burke family. We use truth serum to extract information, but they died after confessing to the murders."

"died?"
