Chapter 124

With the basic information of the two "talents", Lorraine frowned and walked out of Nelson's office full of doubt.

He has been thinking about what Nelson said before leaving. Difficulties and opportunities coexist. There is no free lunch in the world

What exactly does Nelson want to express?

Implying Lorraine to prepare a suitable stock for Sir Peter Parker?

Why should such a thing be implied?

Compared with Sir Parker's fame and class, the Drake chamber of Commerce now is just a small chamber of commerce that can't be smaller. Is it really worth the efforts of lieutenant general of the Royal Navy of Great Britain, who has the most powerful maritime power in the new world?

This is almost impossible.

At the end of the 18th century, the political rights of the kingdom of Great Britain and the whole world were monopolized by the traditional aristocrats. They are the pride of the times. In this golden age, they are comprehensively dominating the values and choices of all countries and people all over the world.

Fame is wealth.

They have endless means to realize their fame. Taking a stake in a chamber of commerce that is not under their control is not the best means, or even a good means.

Like the relationship between Lorraine and Sir Parker.

If Sir Parker's aim is to become a shareholder of the Caribbean branch of Drake chamber of Commerce, Lorraine will be overjoyed, and less than 50% can be controlled by it.

The chamber of commerce is still Lorraine's chamber of Commerce, which has been praised by Sir Parker. They will have unimpeded access to the whole Caribbean and obtain fairness, respect, profits and more profits.

What does Lorraine need to pay for this?

Cost. Whether Sir Parker takes a stake or not, these are necessary expenses.

Profit. Promising future profits as royalties for aristocratic fame is equivalent to letting consumers bear the expenses that should be borne by the chamber of Commerce. Lorraine doesn't need to pay an extra penny.

What does Sir Parker need to pay for this?

fame and prestige. Invisible fame is like a castle built of sand. It is difficult to build, but it takes only a few breaths to collapse.

The key to everything lies in the decision-making power of the chamber of Commerce.

In this mode of cooperation, Lorraine will never entrust the decision-making power of the chamber of Commerce.

Sir Parker's inability to control the chamber of Commerce means that if Lorraine is determined to overdraw Sir Parker's reputation to weave scams and seek violence, sir Parker will be powerless.

This is the unique distortion of the power based social ecology.

It seems that those who enjoy their success bear great risks, while those who seem to be in a vulnerable position do not need to pay any price. Therefore, the spokesman will exist.

Spokesmen are the only means of self-protection for nobles.

They occupy a high position in the chamber of Commerce and pay vigilant attention to the wind and grass of decision-makers. Once there are signs that are unfavorable to the nobility, they can at least make a timely response to the nobility, whether they argue or walk away.

But the nobility took risks after all.

The spokesperson is a living person with desire, position, independent personality and judgment. No one can guarantee that the spokesperson selected will always be loyal to their own interests, just like the old story of Carmen and Viscount Alfonso.

That's why Lorraine doesn't understand.

He is not related to Sir Parker or even has never met. Why did Sir Parker think of taking a stake in Drake chamber of Commerce?

If not, why did he bring his own nephew under Lorraine's command?

Is it just a simple... Do not avoid relatives?

Lorraine scratched her hair sadly, crossed her heart and decided not to think about it.

Anyway, he has agreed with Nelson to interview two "talents" in the morning and afternoon tomorrow at the [Irish style] hotel in Lorraine.

Ironically, Lorraine didn't know where she would live before. The name of the hotel was found out by Nelson's adjutant during the conversation and told Lorraine in turn.

This makes Lorraine deeply feel the omnipresent and secretive position of the Royal Navy in Kingston, which also means that if Lorraine wants to buy property in Jamaica, Kingston is definitely not a suitable town.

"Morant Bay, manchanier, is it to choose between the two towns near Cape motland, or simply go to Luxi Town, which is adjacent to the northern reef belt?"

……

Back to Royal harbor, Lorraine walked along the harbor Avenue and soon found the so-called [Irish style] hotel.

The grey wall and red roof of the hotel have four floors. The walls are decorated with small arches, and the walls are scattered with one-step balconies. The balconies are full of potted plants and full of green. Even the tiles specially choose the arc cornice, a strange shape that is not commonly used outside Spain.

This is obviously a unique small building with Spanish style. Lorraine really doesn't understand why the operator has to pull up eight poles to hit Ireland.

Because this is a British colony?

But on second thought, naming is the freedom of other owners. Even if it is called Chinese style, what does it have to do with Lorraine

He laughed, opened the door, rang the bell at the counter and invited the beautiful hotel waiter out of the room.

"Would you like to check in, sir? This is ophy McCarthy. I'd like to help you."

The girl's voice was as clear as a bell, with a strong southern Irish accent, which made Lorraine tortured by doubts. Her mood all the way finally improved, and she couldn't help smiling on her face.

"Miss McCarthy, my crew should have booked a room in your hotel."

"Really? May I have the name of the reservation?"

"Probably... Carmen Xavier, that's a lady as beautiful as you."

Miss ofey let out a loud exclamation and covered her mouth. "Are you the captain Miss Xavier said, Mr. Drake?"

"It seems that you are very impressed with her."

"Yes! Miss Xavier is the most beautiful lady I've ever seen in my life, and the miss yesla beside her is the second most beautiful. I've been thinking about how reckless men without manners are willing to let them blow the rough sea breeze. I didn't expect..."

"Didn't think of anything?"

Miss ofey blushed and held back for a long time: "it's wrong to judge people by their appearance."

Lorraine blinked: "what did you say?"

"A good-looking gentleman in a tuxedo does not necessarily know how to cherish fragrance and jade, sir. Thank you for teaching me this truth."

With the fastest speed, miss ofey took a big step back and bowed sincerely to Lorraine.

Lorraine clubbed awkwardly in front of the counter. Her new good mood disappeared in an instant. It's not easy to attack.

He deflated his mouth sadly. "Miss McCarthy, you haven't told me where our room is?"

"On the second, third and fourth floors, except for the four rooms on the first floor, Ms. Xavier has all the rest. When she goes out, let me tell you that your room is 401, which is the largest suite in the hotel. It has an independent study and reception room, and the bedroom window faces the sea."

"How thoughtful of her."

"I suggested it!"

"Well... Thank you for your consideration," Lorraine said with a sigh and turned upstairs.

Unexpectedly, when a pair of big feet came up the stairs, he suddenly heard miss ofey muttering behind the counter.

"401's bedroom faces the sea. The pelican in the early morning makes you cry! Hum!"

Huh?

These casual Irish people have really seen the ghost!
