Reborn As a Pirate

Three hundred and thirteen money has to be spent

The end of February, Lucy.

The early spring sunshine shone loosely on Lorraine's big bed, waking Lorraine up from his slumber.

He climbed out of bed, covered his eyes, and gently closed the nearly transparent window screen.

Looks like another boring morning... he said.

It has been more than half a month since the end of the Bimini naval battle. The huge trophy fleet entered Kingston, shocking the jaws of many people.

No one expected that this vengeful pirate war would get such huge benefits.

15 boats...

Even leaving aside the relatively cheap skuners and sloops that can only be used in offshore waters, the fleet also has a fifth-tier Galen, a fifth-tier Bag, a powerful Brig, and four utility ships. Broad Brigantine.

In addition, there are dozens of cabins of expensive goods that have been carefully selected by the Pirate King, and the value of the goods alone has reached more than 15,000 pounds.

Chuck was probably the most surprised of all, because he was asked to preside over the pirate handover with the New World Fleet, and by the way, help Lorraine hand over smuggled arms worth tens of thousands of pounds to the navy.

This made him particularly want to find out how much Lorraine had earned in this one-and-a-half-month naval battle...

It's crazy, it's crazy!

After watching dozens of pirates being hanged collectively, he made a special trip to Lucy to get rid of Lorraine's confusion.

As a result, he only saw Carmen who had returned from New Orleans at some point.

Carmen's task is to represent Lorraine and the branch to discuss the distribution of war profits and capacity adjustments.

First of all, the bounty of the pirates is 11,300 pounds... This is the price after adding the 6,000 pounds specially approved by Sir Parker for the arms, and it is unified under the name of the General Chamber of Commerce;

Secondly, for the estimated value of 14,000-16,000 pounds of spoils, since the General Chamber of Commerce does not participate in the sale, it only takes 10,000 pounds, and the rest can be included in the branch's profit.

Third, the readjustment of the war fleet.

Eros and the newly acquired Black Goat were officially assigned to the fleet directly under the General Chamber of Commerce, the original war fleet was cancelled, Olves returned to the branch, and Leonard continued to be seconded.

The third wing ship of the direct fleet is the Three-Eyed Raven,

Her hull structure suffered huge damage due to this rough modification, and she had to go back to the factory for at least two months for overhaul, and she had to undergo another half-month sea trial.

The Cyclops simply came back with Carmen, and Lorraine still had a choice in terms of quick response.

In this way, Lorraine officially formed a stable command lineup.

There are six ships in the fleet directly under the Drake General Chamber of Commerce. The flagship is the specially modified Galenic destroyer Golden Hart. Eye Crow (unavailable), and the communication ship is the Bermuda large sloop Clipper Cangqing Dew.

In terms of personnel composition, Lorraine, the admiral of the direct fleet, Leonard, the deputy admiral and captain of the Eros, Yacharin, the captain of the Golden Deer, Dylan, the captain of the Black Goat, Hill, the captain of the Cyclops, and the absent Three-Eyed Raven. A newcomer was adopted, and Thales, a long-term sailor recommended by Olves, served as the captain.

Wang also served in the original war fleet, but he traveled to Boston and brought back a group of ignorant and useless fellow villagers who couldn't even communicate well.

Lorraine had strictly ordered that until the end of the war, the sailors of the Qing Dynasty were not allowed to know the relationship between the Kenway Merchant Group and the Drake Chamber of Commerce, so in order to train fellow villagers, Wang could only stay in New Orleans.

With the determination of the fleet directly under the General Chamber of Commerce, other warships have also ushered in the distribution.

Considering that Cotton Jack VII disappeared completely after the fall of Bimini, and even Turtle Island and the Sea Brotherhood did not know his whereabouts, Carmen proposed to further strengthen the strength of the offshore fleet.

Two Brigantines were transferred to the Caribbean Ocean Fleet, and Holy Anne and a Brigantine were sent to Olves' command, and together with those single-masted or two-masted merchant ships, they became the new subordinate ships of the Caribbean Offshore Fleet.

The offshore fleet more than doubled in size.

The remaining Brigantine and the only Bagg ship were issued to Ramos in Northwest Europe. The poor capacity really needs to be greatly strengthened.

Distribution of the spoils... The distribution plan was finalized, and Chuck was driven back to Kingston without even seeing Lorraine. His doubts could not be answered in the end, but it seemed that he had obtained a vague answer.

And what was Lorraine doing at that time?

He is sick.

After the disappearance of Cotton Jack, the pirate war suddenly changed from a quick battle as originally planned to a protracted war that would end without knowing when.

Lorraine's body began to protest. In my impression, this seemed to be the first time he had a fever since he fell into the water when he was young.

Burn at night, good morning, burn again in the afternoon, good evening...

Illness comes like a mountain.

Lorraine spent a whole week in a daze, even with Daniel's superb medical skills, he couldn't be cured quickly, so he could only resign himself to fate and leave it to his strong body to bear it.

And the repeated fever made his body weak again. Even Pierce came back to prepare meals for him, and Dao Biao's staff was suddenly transferred to a very dangerous situation.

Fortunately, a week later, Lorraine's illness recovered without any symptoms, only weakness, and only weakness remained.

He was ordered not to go to sea, not to hold a knife, not to read charts, and not to receive secret reports.

The daily task is to eat enough, sleep and wake up, and every night after taking a bath, he has to receive Nuoya's personal massage. Even he himself can't tell whether this kind of life is pain or enjoyment.

The only thing he can be sure of is that it is boring...

Every day is so boring, when will I be able to deal with work? he lamented.

Cotton Jack, Bonnet, Brotherhood of the Sea, Beacon and Smuggling, the General Chamber of Commerce has accumulated more and more unused wealth... There are so many things to be busy, but I can only lie down...

He paced back and forth in the room, and suddenly glanced up at his desk.

A striking red velvet throwing knife was poked on the huge table. It was a gift from Henna when he secretly looked through the account book the day before yesterday.

I remember glancing at that time, the balance of the General Chamber of Commerce has exceeded 200,000 pounds...

Money piled in the treasury will not make money!

He stopped suddenly: Opheus! Ophelia!

The lively butler flew in like a butterfly: Evil master, are you awake? Do you want something to eat?

I eat eight meals a day now! Lorraine gave Offie a fierce look, Sneakily convey three things to me.

thing?

Let Carmen take fifty thousand pounds. She knows what the money is for.

Offie took out a small notebook and wrote it down: Understood.

Let Leonard take another 20,000 pounds.

Vice President? Ofi tilted his head and poked his eyes out from behind the small notebook, No specific instructions?

Lorraine thought for a while: Let Leonard buy the manor and private beach next door, and expand our pier to a high standard, at least the size can accommodate the entire direct fleet.

yes!

Thirdly, St. George's Island, which is in Bermuda. The letter allowed Chuck to get in touch with local gentry and manor owners, especially in Castle Town.

It is the earliest developed area in Bermuda. It is adjacent to the Bermuda Shipbuilding Center and is also the garrison control area of ​​​​the Continental Squadron. In terms of development, it is far behind Bermuda's main island and the western island chain.

Pirates are hard to deal with. Lorraine scratched his head. As the pirate war intensifies, our enemies in the Caribbean Sea will only increase. Bermuda is more suitable as a distribution terminal for our goods entering and leaving the New World, while Kingston is only suitable for placing General Administration.

For this reason, I have prepared 100,000 pounds and let him serve as the representative of the General Assembly. I will strive to take as much land as possible within this year, preferably the entire island, and build high-quality cargo holds and commercial ports.

The island's plantations aim at the island's self-sufficiency. Don't worry about it like a landlubber. The output of the mere land can't bring us more.

One hundred thousand pounds?! Ofie looked dazed.

Lorraine snorted: Hasn't Chuck always wondered how much I snatched from Cotton Jack? Now he knows.

Miss Offee, who doesn't love money, was knocked unconscious by the gold pound for the first time. She jotted down the main points in a daze, and was going to go back and draft a document.

Master, can I get you to sign the manuscript within today?

I have to come here secretly. Lorraine glanced at the red velvet throwing knife on the desk again guiltily, By the way, where did Hana go today?

Ms. Yesra... Ofe frowned and thought for a long time, Colonel Nelson is here, Ms. Yesra and Ms. Xavier are entertaining him. Don't worry, he will be driven away soon.

Oh... um!?
