After rushing out of the fog sea on the island of Heba, Lorraine kept thinking about the next countermeasures.
Four things lay before him.
The first is the overhaul of the butterfly flower and the Macaw.
The Macaw needs to replace the iron parts and sailings of the whole ship. The core is the rivets of the hull and deck. If the whole ship needs to be disassembled. Replacing ship materials that can't be reused and reassembling them again is a huge workload
The condition of the butterfly flower is better. About one-third of the hull and a small part of the plating need to be replaced, and the keel and ribs need a thorough overhaul.
From the four aspects of quality, quantity, speed and efficiency, Karen gave up seven private docks in Southampton and directly recommended to Lorraine the famous piraia dock in port sell.
The master craftsman there was an apprentice with Karen in the port Devon dock. Although he was not a master, he was a brother sleeping in the upper and lower bunks.
Karen praised each other's character and skills, patted his chest and assured Lorraine that as long as Lorraine chose the piraya dock, the repair period of the butterfly flower can be controlled within 10 days, and the construction period of the Macaw will not exceed 40 days.
This time is only half of Karen's original estimate.
The second thing is the situation of the chamber of Commerce.
On this trip to Heba, the butterfly flower disappeared in front of the people for nearly 20 days. I don't know whether it is alive or dead.
As the absolute controlling shareholder of the chamber of Commerce, Lorraine knows how volatile his disappearance will be.
People will be separated.
The history of Drake chamber of commerce is too short after all. At present, most of the trade permits, routes and transport capacity of the chamber of commerce are controlled by the three senior executives of the European Northwest Branch, and Ramos, Eddie and Carmen are the spokesmen of the three partnership families of the chamber of Commerce
Once his partners are greedy and take advantage of chaos, his chamber of commerce is likely to be divided or divided.
Any situation will have a huge impact on the chamber of Commerce. Once it occurs, it will take at least half a year to restore the old situation, even if Lorraine energy source continues to make money.
It is urgent to return to Southampton to reassure people.
In addition, there are the disposal of gold ware and the follow-up response to the battle of katab. Although it is also a matter of life and death and interests, it is inappropriate to consider them before the future of the chamber of commerce is uncertain.
Where should I put the destination of butterfly flower and Macaw?
Plymouth? Or Southampton?
Lorraine finally decided to accept Karen's suggestion and the fleet headed for the piraia dock in the port of Plymouth.
Karen and acharin will stay there to take care of the aftercare. He, pierce, Haina and Noah will rush to Southampton by land and divide their troops in two ways to maximize time and cost savings.
On the morning of October 22, the butterfly entered the port of sair.
Lorraine changed into a tuxedo, stood in front of the rented carriage with an umbrella in one hand and a suitcase in the other. Behind her were three Haina in the same dress and dress, saying goodbye to Karen and acharin.
"If everything goes well, Hannah will pass on the news and follow-up arrangements to you at the first time. If anything goes wrong..." Lorraine frowned and shook his head. "That's my business. You just fix the ship. Karen of Plymouth is the master. Don't worry about money. I'll fix it."
Karen and acharin nodded solemnly.
The two sides said goodbye and Lorraine got on the bus in turn.
The coachman waiting by wanted to take Lorraine's suitcase. Lorraine gently lifted the box, avoided it without losing etiquette, and nodded to the coachman: "it's the relics of our ancestors. It's the duty of future generations to do it yourself. Thank you."
"You're welcome, sir..."
The carriage started slowly. Acharin watched the shadow disappear at the corner of the wharf and asked, "Karen, do you think the captain will go well?"
"This is not something we should consider," Karen glanced at acharin distantly. "Go and rent two good rooms nearby. The gold will follow me until the captain comes back."
"Huh?"
……
After a night's gallop, the carriage finally stopped at Herbert Walker street, in front of the red brick building belonging to Drake General Chamber of Commerce. Lorraine met Miss Zhenna in the next entrance hall. In the building, she unexpectedly saw Ramos and Carmen sitting rigidly opposite to drinking morning tea.
"My deputy governor and business supervisor will stay safely in the General Chamber of Commerce and drink morning tea. Is the business depressed recently?"
Bang Dang!
Carmen's spoon landed impolitely on the bone china plate in front of him.
"President... You are finally back!"
By Ramos and Carmen's mouth, Lorraine finally straightened out the current situation.
As he expected, people in the chamber of commerce are worried and want to be separated these days.
All glory will go to villen Desai, far away in the port of La rochelli, France.
He returned home in a high profile 14 days ago, that is, on October 9. Then he sang on various occasions. He sank the butterfly flower, and the whole ship went up and down without a lifetime.
For him, making up such a lie may be just for prestige and dignity, but for Drake chamber of Commerce, which lost its president, the lie almost led to disaster.
Viscount Alfonso was the first to attack.
He proposed that the General Chamber of commerce should be dissolved if two shareholders died at the same time and none of them had a successor.
The independent northwest Europe branch can be jointly controlled by three shareholders and executives, or divided into three semi Independent Cooperative chambers of Commerce, independent financial rights and sharing transportation capacity and channels.
This proposal was strongly opposed by Carmen and Ramos, who were in Bilbao at that time, and the proposal finally came to an end.
Also because of this matter, Carmen and Alfonso had a big quarrel and completely broke up.
On the same day, Lord Alfonso sent a new spokesman to replace Carmen. Carmen resolutely returned the other courtyard of the villa given by Lord Alfonso that year. That night, he took the cattail with Ramos, ventured through the Cantabrian route and returned to the seat of the General Chamber of Commerce.
The development of events proved that their decision was very far sighted.
Viscount Alfonso began lobbying the other two partners.
Senator piddick was almost persuaded that Ramos's sincere letterhead made him withdraw the motion that had been issued.
Norway is not peaceful either, but it is not Sir Garman who wavers, but Eddie, who has been entrusted with an important task by Lorraine.
He made a special trip to the General Chamber of Commerce and held closed door consultations with Ramos and Carmen all night. He wanted to take the second fleet on his own. Ramos and he broke up a fierce quarrel and broke up unhappily.
Eddie returned to Stavanger with resentment and anger. After that, in the name of worrying about Lorraine and inadvertently working, Eddie announced that the second fleet was stationed in Stavanger and suspended its operation.
This is equivalent to putting on a posture to force Ramos and Carmen to restart negotiations and accept his request.
That was six days ago.
Eddie's mutiny took the troops of two loyal partners like a drastic draw. When they were at a loss for this, Lorraine came back.
Lorraine came back, villen's lie was broken, the crisis of the chamber of Commerce was solved, and everything... Returned to the normal track.
Hearing this, Lorraine smiled quietly.
"I didn't expect Mr. Eddie Garman to be so impatient to negotiate? Please invite him over. I just want to talk to him."
