Reborn As a Pirate

v1 Chapter 126: Caribbean Chapter

The preparation of the    branch has taken an important step.

  Sir Parker hopes that Chuck will join the Drake Chamber of Commerce, and Chuck himself has full willingness to join the Chamber of Commerce.

   In this way, no matter his ability is strong or weak, Lorraine can find a suitable position for him, and then with the help of Sir Parker's reputation, Drake's business flag can be inserted all over the corners of the New World in the shortest time.

  Everyone relaxed, Lorraine asked Miss Offie to change the tea. The three of them tasted the tea and began to exchange some details.

   Lorraine glanced at the clock: "There are still 45 minutes left before Mr. Cortrens arrives. We have plenty of time. Mr. Parker, I don't know what position you want to get?"

   "You are a generous person, giving the club president a full opportunity to show off his talents. If possible, I hope to become the president of the Caribbean club."

   "Do you want to be the chairman?" Lorraine was so risky that he didn't choke tea. "Look, you haven't been in business before, did you..."

   "I have formulated the first three-year development plan of the Chamber of Commerce, you can check it out."

   Chuck interrupted Lorraine involuntarily, and reached out and handed over a thick leather notebook with buttons.

   Lorraine had to take it and open it in front of Chuck.

   is the detailed development plan of the sub-chambers, from the selection of the headquarters, the formation of the team, the expansion of the trade zone, the penetration of territories outside the British, and the echelon of offshore and ocean-going fleets...

  Chuck even set up a clear timetable and perfect budget for all things, which fully demonstrates his academic background, as well as his long-standing dreams and ambitions.

Lorraine could not find obvious mistakes and omissions in the plan. Although it was slightly idealized, at least in the British colonies, Chuck’s status determined that he was qualified to propose an idealized timetable, such as obtaining all the English in three months. Trade permits belonging to a colony, etc.

   "Your success has allowed me to improve my evaluation of you." Lorraine closed the paper and said sincerely.

   Chuck’s excitement was beyond words: "Sir, do you think I can hold the post of president?"

"It's not in a hurry." Lorraine shook the leather book in his hand. "Your plan ignores two things. First, we have a mature Northwestern Europe branch. He should become a Northwestern Europe distributor for the Caribbean branch. , The Chamber of Commerce has no reason to invest twice in the same trade route. Second, we are the Privateer Chamber of Commerce. Didn’t Lieutenant Colonel Nelson tell you this?"

   "Are we the Privateer Chamber of Commerce?"

   Lorraine smiled and nodded.

   Chuck stood up with a cry: "Can I borrow your desk for a while? I need a pen, and what you have..."

   Lorraine returned the leather book to him: "Please, Mr. Parker, Carmen and I went to the balcony to enjoy the sea view. How about half an hour, do you think?"

   "40 minutes, I only need 5 minutes to introduce the new plan."

   "Good self-confidence, I like it."

  Leaving Chuck to revise the plan, Lorraine and Carmen both came to the balcony.

   Carmen opened the umbrella rib to cover his mouth, and smiled: "I think you seem to like him very much."

   "A 26-year-old young man, full of energy, self-righteousness, and the ability to match it, can't be disliked."

   "God, my captain called a 26-year-old gentleman a young man... If I remember correctly, you just turned 19, Master Captain!"

"It's almost half a year before my birthday. To be precise, I am now 18 and a half years old." Lorraine corrected his mouth. "But physical age is not the only reference standard. You are only in your early 20s. Is that mature?"

   "It seems that you also know that he is not stable enough."

   "Then give him a stable vice president. What do you think of Leonard?"

   "Arthur Leonard?" Carmen blinked, "Are you going to use a large number of long-term sailors on the Golden Deer?"

"This is also no way." Lorraine shrugged helplessly: "You know, we won't have much time to manage the Caribbean branch next. His independence will be stronger than the Northwest branch. And the sailors. Although they are not as good as the local young nobles in terms of knowledge and skills, they have experience, experience, and trustworthy loyalty. For the club, these are rare things."

"Defenses can not do without?"

   "The heart of defense is indispensable, this is the truth."

  ...

   Chuck fully proved his talent in running the chamber of commerce in 40 minutes.

The development plan of the    branch has been greatly adjusted, and the most important thing is to change the guiding ideology.

  In his original plan, the Drake-Caribbean Chapter is not so much a branch of the General Chamber of Commerce, as it is an independent chamber of commerce with transoceanic trade as its core profit model.

  In the new plan, the Caribbean branch has become a real production area supply and marketing branch.

  Chuck is going to first open up all the trade licenses of the British colonies and form a small offshore transshipment fleet that is known for its flexibility and speed, and earn operating costs for the club through low-profit offshore trade.

   The formation of the huge ocean-going fleet was split into two parts according to the ratio of 37 to 7.

   The small one was formed three years later using the funds of the Chamber of Commerce to open ocean trade and export New World products for the Northwest Branch of Europe.

   the larger share is handed over to privateers.

   He seemed to appreciate Lorraine's privateer combat power, and directly set Lorraine's seven Brig-level privateer targets for three years. He never thought about the problem of stealing chickens and losing rice.

  Chuck even determined the internal trade model with the Northwest Branch, including two modes of ocean delivery and Caribbean supply. The former increases the price by 20% after deducting the cost, and the latter is 50%.

   The price is much lower than the market price in Europe. While he reserved enough profit space for Northwest Europe, he also left enough profit for his branch.

   Generally speaking, Lorraine is very satisfied with this plan.

   He closed Pippen with a smile: "Mr. Chuck Parker, I want you to do three things next."

   Chuck cheered up: "Please tell me."

   "First of all, within ten days, the plan will be perfected into a formal project document. The board of directors of the General Chamber of Commerce needs to pass and keep the record for the evaluation of the performance of the branch."

   "I can finish it in eight days."

   "It's still ten days, because you have other things to do." Lorraine smiled, "The second thing, do you know the town of Lucy on the west coast?"

"knowledge…"

"I need you to buy a property for me within three days, which will serve as my temporary residence in recent years and the office of the General Chamber of Commerce. The headquarters of the branch should also be set up, including the headquarters, trading bank and warehouse, and the time should not exceed five days. , This is an assessment of your business ability."

   Chuck was stunned for a moment: "Sir, it's not that I shied away... If you don't speak to Uncle Peter, the money I have..."

   "In the afternoon, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, you can go to Ms. Carmen to collect five thousand pounds, if you pass the assessment, you will get the remaining start-up funds of the club."

   "God, five thousand pounds!" Chuck turned his sorrow into joy, stood up and beat his chest like a real soldier, "I won't let you down, sir!"

"very good…"

  咚咚咚.

Before Lorraine’s words were finished, Ms. Offie knocked on the door of the meeting room again: “It’s not that I want to disturb you, Mr. Captain, but there’s another gentleman named Richard Cortrance downstairs. He too Said I had an appointment with you to meet in the morning."

"He didn't lie to you, Miss McCarthy, can I trouble you to bring him up." Lorraine smiled and dealt with Miss Orphee, turned his head and continued to say to Chuck, "Mr. Cortrance is your third thing. You have already I am the temporary president of the future Caribbean branch. I think it is more appropriate for you to conduct the next interview."

"I?"

   "Inspecting subordinates is also a manifestation of the president's ability, isn't it?" Lorraine stood up and pointed to his seat, "From now on, this reception room will be handed over to you."

   Chuck has a sense of unreality falling in the clouds. While being unreal, he also vaguely feels a touch of respect and trust.

   He watched Lorraine and Carmen turn to the study, and suddenly asked: "Chairman, do you have any suitable industrial assessments for the branch admiral? I mean, except for buying a ship."

"Examination other than buying a ship?" Lorraine thought for a while, and said, "My Golden Deer is now parked in Port Royal, and the hull is slightly damaged. She is an excellent destroyer. If you need to treat Kotlon Mr. Si’s ability is assessed, and it is a good way to arrange a repair meeting."

"I see!"
