Reborn As a Pirate

v2 Chapter 209: Capitalist thinking and justice

In Lorraine's concept, any problem that money can solve is not a thorny problem.

This sentence is not an evil capitalist declaration, but combined with the education of the two lives, he discovered that [money] was originally a concept that appeared to solve problems.

Time cost, creative cost, execution cost, risk cost, data cost...

All the factors needed by human beings to solve problems can be converted into [money] at the end. Generally, the power of equivalents is so terrifying.

With this understanding, Lorraine's thinking is inevitably biased towards the position of a conscientious capitalist.

The sailors were very tired, so they let go of the supply of coffee and tea, and at the same time distributed rum on a per capita basis, using biological stimulants to stimulate people's spirits.

Lucky Horseshoe was constrained, so it gave up the small profit at hand, and chose a more optimal plan with increased risks and increased profits.

This is not the same as equating money with priceless life, but there is nothing wrong in this era.

Priceless means that the value is not constant. Variables mean that there are peaks and valleys. In this era, the value of human life is undoubtedly at the bottom.

Human lives are worthless.

In the British Isles, children with unlimited possibilities are regarded as consumables in the workshop. In the vast, non-white world, labor is priced at only five to fifteen pounds.

Sailors are regarded as the most valuable technical work in this era, so the navies of various countries use whips and torture to kidnap them, while pirates use limited democracy and freedom to tempt them.

The Chamber of Commerce can be regarded as the most humane employment channel, but the average salary of sailors in the industry is barely close to the middle class's annual salary of 27-32 pounds. More than 70% of the employment contracts will not contain relevant provisions on protection, promotion, and pensions. .

In other words, the sailors obviously risked their lives to earn salaries like soldiers, but not only were they not respected, they could not keep the future.

At this point, the Drake Chamber of Commerce was at the forefront of the times in the early days of its establishment.

Although Lorraine did not deliberately provide the sailors with remuneration higher than the market level, even at the stage of insufficient funds, he did not deduct the promised pension.

After the Hebazian expedition, Lorraine, who had earned the first pot of gold, was no longer trapped by money, and finally had the ability to practice his ideas.

This idea is the "Professional Employment Contract" unique to the Drake Chamber of Commerce, referred to as the Marinesman Agreement.

This long-term agreement is a sign of the formation of the corporate culture of the Drake Chamber of Commerce, and fundamentally opened the gap between them and their peers in the sailor employment environment.

The "Professional Employment Contract" is a comprehensive set of employment contracts, and the main group it faces is sailors, and it is not limited to sailors.

In the first five years of his appointment, in addition to the high annual salary of 60 pounds, he also enjoyed the privilege of renewing salary for eighteen months and re-employment for the disabled, and not being allowed to terminate the contract.

In addition, the initial appointment also enjoys two special benefits.

First of all, a long-term sailor can introduce an adult family member to get a special family contract without taking the test.

The annual salary of the family contract is only 12 pounds, but as a land-based position, the Chamber of Commerce will provide the contractor with medium and low-level board and lodging, a relatively fixed time for commuting, one day off per week and the number of years of service multiplied by three, up to fifteen days Free annual leave.

These treatments have created a stable source of family-oriented income, ensuring that even if the long-term sailor dies, his family can survive under the care of the Chamber of Commerce, despite the compensation.

Second, a long-term sailor can recommend a minor family member to receive free education from the Chamber of Commerce.

The Chamber of Commerce has set up its own staff school in Southampton, and Kingston's staff school is also steadily under construction.

This is a specialized technical school with two years of class. The teaching content includes theology, mathematics, sales, accounting, reception, administration, etc. Women also need to learn dance, fashion and makeup, and men are required to accept fighting, boating and carpentry. Training.

In addition, long-term employees can also recommend students to enroll at their own expense, and are no longer restricted to direct family members. However, the full tuition fee of the school is as high as 30 pounds. Unless the full scholarship is awarded as the first subject, most employee families still cannot afford this. Expensive education expenditures.

Protection and education, Lorraine uses these two benefits to draw a pie for outstanding employees loyal to the Chamber of Commerce, so that they no longer live with fear and are qualified to imagine a stable and high-quality life on the ground.

What's more, the content of the sailor's appointment is far more than the initial appointment.

Employees who have performed the contract for five years, or who have been recommended by the director or above of the branch during the performance of the contract, can get the opportunity to renew the contract for life.

The renewal period is no longer specified, and lasts until males are 50 years old and females are 45 years old.

During the performance of the contract, the employee’s minimum annual salary was increased to 80 pounds, and the family’s contract was upgraded to the initial long-term contract. At the same time, it was allowed to recommend all minors directly from the family to receive free education.

After the renewal period expires, the Chamber of Commerce has also prepared the most special re-employment contract for talents with special talents or special gifts.

With a guaranteed annual salary of two hundred pounds, full medical and funeral protection, as long as they are loyal and useful to the Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce is willing to let employees prosper for a lifetime until death.

By virtue of the three internally disclosed related contracts, Lorraine has successfully built the Drake Chamber of Commerce into the medium-scale chamber of commerce with the strongest centripetal force and the most favored choice by outstanding sailors.

It is not that he has not considered the possibility of other chambers of commerce following suit.

However, most of the truly top-scale chambers of commerce have their own talent training system, and there are few chambers of commerce in the same level that have more funds than him. The information dissemination speed of this era cannot be compared with later generations...

The contract has been launched for more than a year, and Drake is still unique in the talent market.

Perhaps...this is the process by which the top chambers of commerce establish a talent training system, right?

Lorraine didn't know.

He only knows that even if work-related injuries, medical care, housing, general pensions, etc. are not proposed that will bring huge pressure to the chamber’s finances, even if the chamber actually signed less than 300 initial contracts and less than 20 renewals so far, he still Success wins people's hearts.

Especially after the establishment of the Caribbean branch, the first long-term sailors represented by Leonard went ashore and were reused, and morale and willingness problems never appeared on his ship.

The sailors unabashedly supported him and cooperated with him. Whether it was participating in treasonous smuggling activities or accepting difficult combat missions, the sailors were willing to accept the continuous battle day and night, and did their best. Contribute your strength to Lorraine's will.

Obviously, the cooperative relationship between them has been solidified, using money as the matchmaker and ending with emotion.

Lorraine knew that countless sailors wished to settle down in his body, and he had no obligation to these expectations, but in the course of his own success, he would surely realize the expectations of countless people.

Just like the savior...

In the direction of the stern, the plume of smoke rising from the sinking slave ship was fading.

In the direction of the ship's bow, the sound of artillery rumbling, the blockade of the first and fifth channels has begun, and the fourth channel of the decisive battle, the huge Andes has already rushed out of the islands and reefs.

Time is just right...

Lorraine glanced at the battle flag floating on the tip of the mast. In the middle of the mainmast was the bright-colored rice-shaped flag representing the navy background. The guardian of Saint George in color.

The hint is obvious enough.

Compared to the badgers and wasps, who are prone to fight forever, the armed merchant ships generally lacking fighting will and fighting standards are obviously more suitable targets for the flag sacrifice.

To win, come and sink me...

Lorraine looked at the approaching Andes, miraculously out of the fighting state in his mind.

What should I do next? Guide the sailors to form a crew union?

Trade unions are an inevitable product of the development of employee benefits to a certain level. Because negotiations with capitalists become more and more difficult, the natural weak water gestures must be united to pursue collective demands.

Lorraine covered her mouth, lost in thought.

"Now that there is a historical inevitability for the emergence of trade unions, I will guide the establishment of the trade union but it will be beneficial, such as facilitating the theft of trade union leadership, designing a capital-friendly election system, and letting trade unions deteriorate in advance...what else?"

In the murmur, a decisive battle will begin...
