The fourth floor of the Drake House is a huge and transparent staircase meeting room, which can accommodate more than two hundred people. Although it is cleaned every day, the actual number of openings is very small.

It’s just that there’s less return. The last time it was opened was the most recent event. It was the 1785 Miami Annual Meeting, which had the largest number of participants in the history of the Drake Chamber of Commerce and the second in the proportion of attendance.

As the first annual meeting after the General Chamber of Commerce moved to Miami, on December 15th last year, 147 partner-level employees scattered around the world left their jobs and rushed to this conference hall.

But what is ridiculous is that this annual meeting did not prepare for general conference-level issues, none at all.

The Drake Chamber of Commerce has long since ended the global framework construction period. The core direction for the next 30 or even 100 years has been determined. What needs to be done now is not to modify, but to fill.

How to make the established framework plump up, and how to achieve the goals of the Chamber of Commerce in the planning period or before the planning period.

What Lorraine and other Drake need to consider right now are these things, and these are exactly the details. The proper execution and implementation are not the General Chamber of Commerce, but the groups and branches under it.

As a result, Wu Huan Huan’s partners gathered from all over the world, arguing about their plans and needs for 9 days, and after Christmas, Wu Huan Huan returned to their respective battlefields.

This large-scale annual meeting is of course meaningful, drawing on the best of others and brainstorming.

But these small meanings did not seem to be of much value compared to the time saved by each group and branch holding their own annual meetings. This was Lorraine's sincere feelings at the time.

Just how to say...

Just like being born as a human being, it needs to take into account the sense of ritual in life to some extent. An enterprise also needs ritual embellishment in the development process.

If the partners can really feel the vigorous and prosperous development momentum of the Drake Chamber of Commerce, the consideration of efficiency can indeed be reduced to a secondary level in many cases, especially the temporary impact.

The mighty annual meeting ended, and only a week later, the venue was reactivated.

Everyone gathered in a short time. There are Lorraine, Heina, and Noya who were originally in Drake’s house; there is Catalina who has not healed from serious injuries and is unable to leave the wheelchair for the time being; there is also Wang who has just returned from visiting friends in Boston; some have officially ended the treatment , Daniel, who returned from Fort-de-France with Leif; and Karen, who was so busy during this time, and Carmen, who was the only one who made Karen sigh that he was too busy to leave home.

Everyone's expressions were very solemn, and when they were summoned, Lorraine had already told them the cause and effect.

Carmen sat beside Lorraine, stirring the coffee in front of him absently: "Bell Judea, is his role real?"

"Not sure."

Lorraine's folded arms supported his chin like a brace, as if he didn't do so, he couldn't maintain his posture.

"Bell may be a spy for Shaq, he may be a spy for the Admiralty, or he may simply owe him, of course, this may be pitiful."

"I understand your feelings." Catalina's eyes were cold, "but Bell Judea is not our negligence, he is not Acharin, the so-called owe is just wishful thinking."

"I know." Lorraine sighed, "Carmen arranged for Sharon to invite Bell, so he would not be defensive. He would only think that the gathering today was to listen to Carmen's report on the development of Miami."

"Before he comes, let's sort out related things. Carmen."

Kamen opened the file in front of him blankly.

"Bell St. Brid Judea, the first heir to the Earl of St Brid, England, the former Lieutenant Commander of the Royal British Navy, the shareholder of the Drake Chamber of Commerce, a member of the board of directors, and the first in line admiral of the fleet, Valkyrie Zheng The selection of the helmsman, the first-order navigator, and the professor of shipbuilding at the School of Maritime Affairs of the University of Miami. This is the information we are familiar with."

"Bell Judea joined the General Chamber of Commerce in 1779. He first participated in the Halloween operation and played an important role in it. He became famous in World War I."

"After joining the Kenway Business Group, he was suspected of contacting the old staff privately. Later, we established an intelligence channel with Chris Emmons. He played a major role and was also the main person in charge of this line."

"It is precisely because of the association with Chris Emmons that we have been preparing for his whereabouts since 1979, and strive to cut off the link between the Kenway Chamber of Commerce and the Drake Chamber of Commerce."

"We concocted the disagreement between Bell Judea and the captain, and fabricated the information that Bell Judea resigned after the Halloween operation and joined the Kenway Business Group. We forged the information that should be recorded and can reflect this. 16 copies of the documents, 49 copies of documents that could not reflect the matter, and 12 copies were deliberately deleted, altered and abolished, but the files and the broken parts were carefully put into the archives room."

"Bell Judea thus began his activities as a member of the Kenway Business Corps. During this period, including the sea sweep, he deliberately avoided contact with the Royal Navy officers."

"At the same time, through layers of control, our capital is also interfering with the Royal Navy's judgment. Considering the inevitable merger of the merchant group and the chamber of commerce, each of us has a false identity in the merchant group except Bell Judea. , And apart from Edward Kenway, no one’s identity bears the red, including Bell Judea."

"In 1781, the Kenway Merchant Group was cancelled, and Drake’s capital and our capital were wholly-owned for mergers and acquisitions. The information went to Edward Kenway, his attaché, Bell Judea and ours. Five members of the CCP under false identities followed and disappeared. The others joined the chamber of commerce in various positions."

"It took me two years to digest these false identities. Except for Bell Judea, two people were expelled due to negligence, one died of illness, and the rest died at sea."

"Bell Judea is the last person who can be verified by the Kenway Business Group, but he bought back the earl of his family. This alone proves that our work is effective, and his past no longer has an impact. "

Carmen snapped the document closed and looked up: "The things I just said are all special secrets of the Drake Chamber of Commerce. There are only two records, one is kept in the basement archives under the Miami Monument, and the other is stored out of order. Scattered among 197 historical archives in Southampton, New York, Lucy, St. Dyna and Jackdaws, there is no possibility of leaks at either archive."

"Everything is handled by me alone, and I am the only person in charge who knows the whole story of the incident, and there is no possibility of leaking secrets on the execution side."

"However, the relationship between the Kenway Chamber of Commerce and the Drake Chamber of Commerce has indeed been exposed. In conclusion, Bell Judea is the only suspect, and I can be responsible for my own judgment."

When saying this, Carmen gave Lorraine a deep look, and Lorraine replied with thankful eyes and shook his head gently.

"Bell's suspicion is my judgment. As you know, Carmen has no time to care about these trivial matters during this time."

Lorraine smiled.

"By the way, at this moment, Kao should be negotiating with the radicals of the Kurobabe in Mailang Town, right?"

Carmen knows that Lorraine wants to protect her. After all, everyone has accumulated a deep friendship over the years. In contrast, Carmen, who has always been committed to the business of the Chamber of Commerce, is more emotionally alienated.

Doubt, conviction, trial.

Regardless of whether things are right or wrong, Carmen simply does not want Lorraine and his crew to create a gap, and Lorraine does not want Carmen to be a target for everyone to vent their sense of powerlessness.

Carmen understands this, and more from Lorraine's words, he has made a decision.

So she obediently followed Lorraine’s words and turned to the subject: “The development office’s judgment on this negotiation is pessimistic. Including Kurobabe, all tribes in Florida, large and small, have radical hostility towards Miami.”

"Spain is just an excuse, and the large-scale immigration is just an appearance. We have already settled the land with them. They can't get more. Now they just want to drive us into the sea."

Henna raised her eyebrows~lightnovelpub.net~ for the first time today, she spoke: "Kill them?"

Carmen nodded and shook his head: "Kill them, but we don't need to come forward."

"Since there are radicals, there are naturally moderates who welcome coexistence. We have been infiltrating and nurturing them."

"Only Kurobabe, 11 of the 17 elders have huge interests in Miami, and the others are similar. They can't escape our palms. If we want, those barbarians who are wary of war will be uprooted at any time. ."

"The point is, when do we need them to die?"

Carmen raised her slender neck high.

"Miami needs a hearty victory, a real war that is different from the Bay of Biscay drills. It will let people see the safety of Miami, and will further stimulate the boom in land prices and immigration. This is what those people can do for Miami. The most valuable contribution."

"The war will begin soon and then end. The victory will be ours, but I only hope now that this victory will more or less offset our losses today..."
