Reborn As a Pirate

v2 Chapter 313: Money has to be spent

At the end of February, Lucy.

The early spring sun strayly shone on Lorraine's big bed, awakening Lorraine from sleep.

He climbed out of the bed, covering his eyes, and gently drew on the almost transparent window screen.

"It looks like another boring morning..." he said.

It has been more than half a month since the end of the Battle of Bimini, and the huge fleet of trophies entered Kingston, shocking the jaws of many people.

No one thought that this vengeful pirate war would get such huge benefits.

15 boats...

Even leaving aside the relatively low cost of construction and can only be used for offshore skuna and sloops, the fleet also has a five-class galen, one with the same five-class bag, a powerful nabrig and four purposes. Broad Brigantine.

In addition, there are dozens of expensive goods carefully selected by the Pirate King, and the value of the goods alone amounts to more than 15,000 pounds.

Chuck was probably the most surprised of all, because he was asked to preside over the pirate handover with the New World Fleet, and by the way helped Lorraine hand over smuggled arms worth tens of thousands of pounds to the navy.

This made him especially want to figure out how much Lorraine had earned in this naval battle that lasted for a month and a half...

It's crazy, it's crazy!

After seeing dozens of pirates being hanged collectively, he made a special trip to Lucy, wanting to clarify the confusion from Lorraine.

In the end, he only saw Carmen, who did not know when he came back from New Orleans.

Carmen’s task is to discuss with the branch on behalf of Lorraine the allocation of tactics and the adjustment of capacity.

First of all, the pirates have a total of 11,300 pounds...This is the price after the 6,000 pounds specially approved by Sir Parker for the arms, and it is unified under the name of the General Chamber of Commerce;

Secondly, the profitable goods with an estimated value of 14000-16000 pounds, because the General Chamber of Commerce does not participate in the sale, and only takes 10,000 pounds, and the rest can be included in the branch's profit.

Third, the war fleet is realigned.

The Eros and the newly acquired Black Goat were officially included in the fleet directly under the General Chamber of Commerce. The original war fleet was cancelled, Alves returned to the branch, and Leonard continued on secondment.

The third wing of the direct fleet is the Three-Eyed Raven. Her hull structure was severely damaged due to this rough modification. She returned to the factory for overhaul for at least two months, and had to undergo another half-month sea trial.

The Cyclops simply followed Carmen back, and Lorraine still had a choice when it came to rapid response.

In this way, Lorraine officially formed a stable command lineup.

There are six ships directly under the Drake General Chamber of Commerce. The flagship is the specially modified Galen destroyer Golden Deer. The wing ships include the Galen destroyer Eros, Brig Black Goat, Bermuda Brigentine Cyclops and Three The Eye Crow (not yet available), and the communications ship is the Bermuda-type sloop Cangqing Dewdrop.

In terms of personnel composition, Admiral Lorraine of the direct fleet, Leonard, deputy admiral and captain of the Eros, Captain Acharin of the Golden Deer, Captain Dylan of the Black Goat, Captain Hill of the Cyclops, and the absence of the Three-Eyed Raven A newcomer was activated, and Thales, a long-term sailor recommended by Alves, took the post of captain.

Wang also had a position in the original war fleet, but he took a trip to Boston and brought back a group of ignorant and useless fellows, and he couldn't even do normal communication.

Lorraine had strictly ordered that before the end of the war, the sailors of the Qing country were not allowed to know the relationship between the Kenway Chamber of Commerce and the Drake Chamber of Commerce, so Wang could only stay in New Orleans in order to educate his fellow villagers.

With the determination of the fleet directly under the General Chamber of Commerce, other tactical ships also ushered in distribution.

Considering that Cotton Jack VII disappeared completely after the fall of Bimini, and even Turtle Island and the Sea Brotherhood were not aware of his whereabouts, Carmen proposed to further strengthen the strength of the offshore fleet.

Two Brigentine were transferred to the Caribbean ocean-going fleet, and Saint Anne and one Brigentine were sent to Olves's command, and together with those sloops or two-masted merchant ships, they became the new subordinate ships of the Caribbean offshore fleet.

The size of the offshore fleet has more than doubled.

The remaining Brigentine and the only Bagh ship were sent to Ramos in Northwest Europe. This was not only because Carmen could not let members of the Chamber of Commerce think Lorraine preferred the Caribbean branch, but also because in the eyes of old friends, Northwest Europe Poor capacity does need to be greatly strengthened.

Splitting the spoils...The distribution plan was finalized, and Chuck was driven back to Kingston without even seeing Lorraine. His doubts could not be answered in the end, but he seemed to get a cryptic answer.

And what was Lorraine doing at that time?

He is sick.

After Cotton Jack disappeared, the pirate war suddenly changed from the quick and quick resolution in the original plan to a protracted war that did not know when it would end.

Lorraine's body began to protest. In his impression, this seemed to be his first fever since he fell into the water when he was young.

Burn at night, good morning, burn again in the afternoon, good evening...

Illness comes like a mountain.

Lorraine spent a whole week in a muddle-headed horror. Even Daniel's superb medical skills could not be cured quickly. He could only resign to his fate and hand it over to his strong body.

The continuous and repeated fever made his body weak, and even Pierce came back to prepare meals for him, and the manpower of Dao Mark was suddenly transferred to a very dangerous level.

Fortunately, a week later, Lorraine's illness recovered without warning, except for weakness, only weakness.

He was ordered not to go out to sea, not to hold a knife, not to watch charts, and not to receive secret reports.

The daily task is to eat, sleep, wake up, and eat. After taking a bath every night, he has to receive Noya's special massage. Even he can't tell whether this kind of life is painful or enjoyable.

The only thing he can be sure of is boring...

"Every day is so boring, when can I handle work?" He lamented.

"Cotton Jack, Bonnet, Sea Brotherhood, Road Signs and Smuggling, the General Chamber of Commerce has accumulated more and more unused wealth... Obviously there are so many things to do, but I can only lie down..."

He paced back and forth in the room, suddenly looking up at his desk.

There was a striking red velvet flying knife poked on the huge table. It was a gift that Hina gave him when he secretly turned over the account book the day before yesterday. It is still the same now, piercing the account book and getting into the woods.

I remember that when I glanced at it, the balance of the General Chamber of Commerce has exceeded 200,000 pounds...

"The money piled up in the treasury will not give birth to money!"

He stopped suddenly: "Ophee! Orphee!"

The lively housekeeper flew in like a butterfly: "Evil lord, are you awake? Do you want something to eat?"

"I eat eight meals a day now!" Lorraine gave Orphee a vicious look, "Secretly convey three things for me."

"thing?"

"Let Carmen take fifty thousand pounds, she knows the use of the money."

Offi took out his notebook and wrote it down: "Understood."

"Let Leonard take another twenty thousand pounds."

"Vice President?" Ofi tilted his head and peeked out from behind the notebook. "No specific instructions?"

Lorraine thought for a while: "Let Leonard buy the manor and private beach next door, and expand our dock to a high standard, at least the size of it can accommodate the entire fleet directly under it."

"Yes!"

"Third, St. George's Island, it's in Bermuda. The letter allowed Chuck to get in touch with the local squires and manor owners, especially in the town of Castle."

"It is the earliest developed area in Bermuda, adjacent to the Bermuda Shipbuilding Center, and the garrison control area of ​​the Continental Squadron. When it comes to development, it is far less developed than the main island of Bermuda and the western island chain."

"Pirates are difficult." Lorraine scratched his head. "As the pirate war intensifies, we will only have more and more enemies in the Caribbean. Bermuda is more suitable for us to be a cargo terminal for entering and leaving the New World, while Kingston is only suitable for placement. General administration."

"For this, I have prepared a hundred thousand pounds for him to serve as a representative of the General Assembly, and strive to take down as much land as possible within the year, preferably the entire island, and build a high-quality cargo hold and commercial port."

“The plantation on the island aims to be self-sufficient on the island ~ lightnovelpub.net~ Don’t be too careless like a land duck. The output of mere tracts of land can’t bring us more.”

"One hundred thousand pounds?!" Ofi looked demented.

Lorraine snorted: "Didn't Chuck always wonder how much I grabbed from Cotton Jack? Now he knows."

Miss Offie, who doesn't love money, was stunned by Jin Pound for the first time. She jotted down the main points in despair and prepared to go back to draft the text.

"Master, can the letter be signed and stamped for you within today?"

"You have to come secretly." Lorraine glanced at the red velvet flying knife on the desk again with a guilty conscience. "By the way, where did Hannah go today?"

"Ms. Yesra..." Ofi frowned and thought for a long time. "Colon Nelson is here, and Ms. Yesra and Ms. Xavier are entertaining him. Don't worry, you will be driven away soon."

"Oh...huh!?"
