　　 Today is May 1, Lorraine is floating in the sea, thinking of Labor Day's meddling in his mind.

　　The Labor Day in history has to wait and see until 1889. The rich man Engels led the Second International to meet in Paris and proposed a global strike on May 1st, and for the first time proposed that this day be an International Labor Day.

　　 Therefore, Labor Day has been a struggle initiated by capitalist-led laborers to fight for the right not to work from the very beginning of its birth. It resembles the labor union movement controlled by Lorraine in nature.

　　 But then again, the essence of the proletarian movement turned out to be the struggle of the capitalist group for the right to speak. If the proletarians did play a role in the contention, they would do their part as a loudspeaker, and get some dividends. It is not worth complaining.

　　 Lorraine thought, what should he do if he encounters such a sport?

　　 Drake’s employees have already enjoyed heavenly justice.

　　 They only need to work 14 hours a day and have 29 holidays each year. The standard Christmas holiday is as high as 7 days, and the total number of holidays in a year is 35 days.

　　What does this mean?

　　In Boston theory, ordinary workers in general factories work 363 days a year, 18 hours a day, a total of 6,534 hours, and an average salary of 12.7 pounds.

　　 Drake’s shore employees work 330 days a year, 14 hours a day, a total of 4,620 hours, and an average salary of 13.2 pounds.

　　 Work 70% of the time and get paid 104%. Drake's money is good, and Lorraine's welfare is certainly the best in the United States, even if it is not the best in the world.

　　 But people's hearts are greedy.

　　 The more you give, the more dissatisfied he is. As can be seen from the booming trade unions, employees are still dissatisfied with the current preferential treatment.

　　Once they are incited by some First, Second and Third International, even a boss with a conscience like Lorraine will still be labeled as a cannibal capitalist.

　　 Is it necessary to take precautions like the trade union movement to form Drake International or Associated Press International?

　　 After all, a hundred years is not far from a consortium, even if Lorraine can't meet it, his descendants will definitely not be able to avoid it.

　　 Lorraine's face went black when he thought of his children and grandchildren.

He turned his head guiltily, and only saw the alternate third helmsman at the helm. Then he glanced diagonally, and finally saw Hina and Qiaoxiao who were training white ears at the railing of the stern tower watching the sea. Noah.

　　Everyone is not young anymore...

　　 The noble women in this world often declare adulthood at the age of sixteen and marry at the age of eighteen. Men usually reach the age of eighteen, and the object of marriage is determined before the age of twenty-three.

　　 And Henna is already twenty-six, Carmen and Lorraine are both twenty-five years old, and even the youngest Noya is twenty-three, far beyond the age of marriage.

　　 But can you really talk about this kind of thing?

　　 Lorraine looked at Noya, his left brain looked like Carmen, and his right brain looked like Henna...

　　 "You can only choose one..." he muttered depressedly.

　　 Karen came over carrying a pile of wooden boards, and happened to hear this sentence into his ears: "Why choose one?"

　　 Lorraine's expression froze: "It's okay, Karen, how old are you?"

　　 Karen put down the plank without knowing it, and forged for a long time with his fingers as thick as carrots: "The next birthday is 30, and it's far from the age you set to disembark, what's wrong?"

　　 Lorraine scratched his nose: "Then what...you don't seem to have a girlfriend yet?"

　　 Karen's expression changed drastically: "Could it be that my mother..."

　　Sure enough, every family has trouble reading it.

　　 Lorraine waved his hand with emotion: "It's okay, go ahead."

　　 Thinking that he blocked Lorraine's words, Karen picked up the plank so fast, watching his dexterous back like a polar bear, Lorraine remembered the talkative Edley again in his heart.

　　 If it weren't for this **** to talk too much, how could the dignified Baizhi Pirate King be caught in the love of his mother-in-law!

　　 Wang also poked his head out of the kitchen cabin with an iron spoon, and slammed the alarm bell outside the kitchen cabin.

　　分, it's time for dinner.

According to the regulations, the sailors will dine in five batches, each with 85 people, and the meal time is 30 minutes. The non-core seafarers of each round are also in the dining cabin. There are no special treatments for food and beverages, and they only have drinks such as wine, tea, and coffee. Exclusive share other than supply.

　　 Core seamen will not dine in large restaurants.

　　As capitalists, they neither share food with sailors, nor do they use the mariner’s biological clock for three meals a day. Two o'clock in the afternoon is their thunderous lunch time. If not, they will not be able to reasonably arrange a reasonable interval between meals and tea.

　　 Thinking suddenly returned to the evil capitalist mode, Lorraine was very happy, because this is the mentality that should be near the battlefield, cold-blooded, selfish, measuring everything by money, and will not hesitate for a moment when facing a decision.

　　 He saw Katerina coming out of the Sailor's Restaurant, and greeted him.

　　 "How is the menu today?"

　　 "Western red pan salad, beef stew with potatoes, and standard Drake tea soup. The staple food is the king's oatmeal bread that we curse every day. Every time I eat it, I will miss the taste of black bread."

　　 Lorraine raised his eyebrows: "Have you eaten?"

　　 "I originally planned to eat with the sailors. Anyway, I don't drink morning tea, but when I saw oatmeal bread, I decided to wait for a small restaurant."

　　 "A wise decision." Lorraine laughed.

　　 Katerina also laughed.

　　 She stretched out her gorgeous red hair and looked at the proud ships far and near on the sea.

　　 They are directly under the fleet that are still intact or have been repaired after the Battle of the Virgin Islands, a total of 18 ships.

　　 Including 4 five-level galenic type, Yalvette, Brunhild, Grey, and Gendal.

　　 8 six-class Brig type, Frigate Bird, Sea Parrot, White Pelican, Sea Turtle, Black-billed Gull, Storm Petrel, Grey-backed Falcon, Skua.

　　 6 Class VI Brigating, Dark Champagne, Cornflower, Bellflower, Hydrangea, Wisteria Orchid, Oleander.

　　 In addition, there are still three ships still in the dock for rush repairs, namely the Jelskogur, the Golden Deer, and the Desert Rose, which was captured during the naval battle on Vieques.

They are advancing at a slow speed of less than six knots in a standard spindle formation. The two wings are tightened, the head and tail are protruding, and the fifth-tier ships are included. Kiri.

　　 An inexplicable sense of pride surged in Katerina's heart, and she couldn't help sighing: "They have been waiting for Valkyrie. The longest has been waiting for three years, and now they have finally waited."

"Yes." Lorraine sighed. "The Golden Deer is too old. It has been severely injured more than once in the past 30 years. In front of them, she is like an old beautiful woman, even if it is well maintained. I can't keep up with them a long time ago."

　　 "Now she finally doesn't have to force herself anymore." Catalina stomped on the thick deck. "How are you going to set up the Golden Deer? Decentralized to Europe? Or stay in America?"

　　 "Actually, I am not going to give her to anyone." Lorraine said, "Miami Town has begun to open one after another, and will reach 3,000 permanent residents next year."

"At that time, the General Chamber of Commerce will move there. At the same time, there will be the first formation of the direct fleet and the special service formation, the Ship Development Research Center, the Fire Control Research Center in Saint-Dina, and the Steam Power Research Center in Boston. Western Business School and St. Dynastic Maritime Academy~lightnovelpub.net~The Maritime Academy does not have its own teaching ship yet. I am going to hand over the Attis Beauty, the Butterfly Flower and the Golden Deer to them, using us The former flagship came to train Drake's future seafarers."

　　 Catalina's eyes lit up: "This is an incomparable good idea! Where's the road sign? Will she pass too?"

　　 "She alone can't do..." Lorraine stretched out her hands regretfully, "I know you have a deep feeling for her, but you should understand that she is not suitable."

"I also know that she is not suitable..." Catalina's eyes darkened. "Don't talk about it, the time to submit Derrick is on the 7th, and at the current speed, we will arrive in Bridgetown on the 5th. So. ...Where do you think Blackbeard will appear?"

　　 "If I were him... I would choose between Basseterre and Russell."

　　 "The boundary between the leeward wind and the forward wind?"

"It is also a barren sea area where the three countries of Britain, France and the Netherlands are mixed." Lorraine added with a smile, "In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, countries generally do not deploy too many warships in such unclear territorial waters. Of course, the main ones are barren. reason."

　　 "Blackbeard is worried about us looking for help from the warship?"

　　 "Is it weird? He knows that I have a good relationship with the navy, after all, we got acquainted with the navy."

　　 Lorraine smashed his mouth.

　　 "Speaking of sea-holding operations, Nelson seems to have mentioned in his letter that he is under house arrest not far from Nevis. It is only a few tens of kilometers away. Otherwise, go and see him..."
