Chapter 281

The reorganization of the board of directors of Boston Haite shipyard ended smoothly with the joy of men and the laughter of women.

The formal signing ceremony was held that night. Mr. Edmund Haite signed and sealed the contract in triplicate and solemnly handed over 90% of the shares of the shipyard and a full set of original deeds to Katrina.

No one questioned the representative of the kenvi business delegation.

Everyone can understand that Edward KENWAY is just a smuggler without any reputation and industry. Due to his active performance during this period, there is still a large reward in Britain.

Such a person is not suitable to be the new chairman of Haite shipyard. Especially in the unstable situation of Boston, avoiding him can avoid the risk of being provoked and confiscated by the British when Boston fell.

In contrast, Katrina's other identity, Donna Linka, is different.

As a Spanish with a complete identity and an innocent family, she has the sacred and inviolable power of private property in the whole civilized world. This is the power given by God to good believers, and no one can arbitrarily deprive her.

In this way, Donna Linka became the new chairman of Haite shipyard, who nominally has an absolutely dominant stake.

She appointed Edmund Haite as the general manager of the shipyard, Joshua Humphreys as the master of the design department and Karen as the general supervisor of the shipyard.

After the personnel decision, she also announced that Haite was entrusted to act as an agent for the daily affairs of the board of directors, retaining only one vote of veto and entrusted to Karen.

As a representative of the management, Karen is required to attend the shipyard at least 15 days every six months. His main work is to review the projects worth more than 10000 pounds to ensure that the interests of the management are not damaged.

As a master trained by Plymouth Naval Shipyard, the world's top shipyard, and with rich navigation experience, he can do this job well.

Of course, he can also transfer any decision made by the shipyard during his absence and make judgment, but if the preparatory period has ended, it will not be suspended in principle.

Karen's position is like the last gate of the dam, which should be a special compromise during the period of mutual trust.

Haite saw Lorraine's sincerity. Lorraine can also limit the whimsy of this nerve knife, consume his property excessively, and choose whether to stop loss in time even if it is out of control.

In order to enhance the trust of both sides, all these terms were written into the employment contract signed by Haite to Karen, who became the first working elite in Lorraine's team to receive two salaries publicly.

Everyone is happy. As Carmen said, no one has been hurt by this cheap acquisition.

Thomas Jefferson, Paul Revere and General Robert Smith, the best bad friend of Haite, were invited as distinguished guests to the board restructuring ceremony and the subsequent small banquet.

In order to congratulate his friends on coming out of the haze, General Smith directly stuffed the construction order of a standard class V ship into Haite's hand in office. Revere rarely met the occasion, buckled his money bag and proposed to buy two communication boats for the saints.

Jefferson also generously ordered a Bermuda sloop with a custom cabin at Lorraine's suggestion. It was not equipped with firepower at all. Two sailors could drive it, just to meet his sea fishing idea.

The new Haite shipyard was suddenly filled with orders, and these ships are standard structures. If there is sufficient manpower, the hull can be built immediately once the drawing is completed.

The atmosphere of joy went upstairs. In the crisscross of cups and plates, Lorraine and Jefferson gathered together with a cup.

"Just looking at Mr. Haite's embarrassed expression yesterday, I really didn't think he would be so happy because he sold the shipyard." Jefferson smiled and congratulated Lorraine.

"Because he wants to work and doesn't want that new ship to die." Lorraine replied, "Mr. governor, senior American executives don't seem to need much work."

"I'm working," Jefferson argued bitterly. "I'm now a patrol representative of the Continental Army. Social networking is my job. If you can't see the governor of Massachusetts here in Virginia, you can't see me easily."

"Oh, I'm so honored..."

……

The next day, when the road sign was launched, bell shouted and drove her into the registration wharf of Houwan port authority, which was registered under the name of Donna Linka like the Jackdaw.

On the eighth day after the Jackdaw was scrapped, the road label officially became Edward KENWAY's second-generation smuggling flagship.

Having a boat means that Lorraine and his gang have a way out of Boston at any time.

However, Lorraine was not satisfied with this kind of safety. As employees of Haite shipyard, acharin and Katrina ordered a full cabin of wine at Boston rum winery and sent a label along with the order, laying a second solid insurance for Lorraine's return.

At the same time, Lorraine also brought Haite a great surprise in the shipyard.

19000 pounds for the purchase of metal shares belongs to Haite individual, and 10000 pounds for the start-up capital belongs to the shipyard.

Lorraine smiled and asked people to carry boxes of gold coins in simple wooden boxes into the conference room. He calmly said to Haite, "although the shipyard has no profitable orders for the time being except for the destroyers of the Charles River formation, since the dock is empty, the shipbuilder has no reason to overstock orders. Let go, Mr. general manager."

Haite was so moved that he almost cried.

But even at this time, he still remembers the details of the acquisition contract.

"Mr. KENWAY, may I venture to ask, where is Ms. Linka who signed the contract yesterday?"

"Linda?" Lorraine didn't react for a moment.

"Ms. Donna Linka. Although she is only the nominal owner of the shipyard, I think it's better to invite her to be present for things like the delivery of administrative funds."

"Er..."

This kind suggestion really choked Lorraine.

Technically speaking, as soon as she returned to the bunker last night, Katrina had transferred a lot of equity of the shipyard to Drake General Chamber of Commerce.

However, the first and second copies of the transfer contract are now in Lorraine's carry on luggage and are not disclosed in any form. Before the end of the war of independence, it is impossible to disclose them to anyone outside Lorraine's team, including Haite.

It can only be said that Haite is really an honest man who will become extinct in the world

Lorraine scratched her hair in embarrassment: "this problem... In fact, Ms. Linda... Katrina doesn't like professional communication. You know, the boring design debate will make laymen feel that time is divided into hardships."

"Design... Debate?"

Karen, who had been ready for a long time, launched a full set of new ship design drawings, and the detailed and beautiful ink lines reappeared in front of the designer after many days, so that Haite and Humphreys, who was called to the meeting, had an idea in their hearts.

Is it

Lorraine put his hands on the table, pressed the drawing in front of him, and stood up.

"This is the drawing of the new ship. After I got it last night, Karen, bell and acharin had a serious discussion for a long time."

"There is no doubt that this is a real boutique, worthy of the name of the pocket battleship you said."

"But the design idea of pocket battleship is still battleship. Only in the battle line can many of her design features be brought into play, which is of no value to us!"

"We are smugglers, lawless and independent. Our living environment at sea is closer to pirates than the army, so she needs to make some changes close to our needs."

"Close, short soldier, fast, flexible, firm and powerful! Cost is not her problem. She deserves to be a legendary ship, a sea monster that makes her opponent tremble when she appears alone!"

"She needs to become an era breaking ship, a unique... Battlecruiser!"
