0240 Books are a tool for mankind to make money

After breaking through the bay entrance, the remaining journey was smooth.

Virginia and Maryland are the most important core support of the War of Independence. The new American has absolute support here and also occupies most of the land.

Especially on both sides of the Chesapeake Bay, every inch of land here is filled with independence fanaticism.

The home sampan fleet has unparalleled war bonuses in this waters. Relying on dense coastal turrets and limited French allies, even beasts like the Lion dare not easily go deep into the bay to challenge the bottom line of the New World country bumpkins.

In short, the first part of 50,000 pounds has been obtained.

The Jackdaw was filled with joy, and Lorraine had just announced on the deck that to celebrate the first successful smuggling, everyone on board would receive an additional reward of one-half of their annual salary.

The praises to God and the captain made Bell feel itchy, and he hurriedly handed the handwheel to the fourth helmsman on the ship, and ran to Lorraine with a smile.

"Low...No, Captain Kenway, how much is my half-year salary?"

Lorraine rolled her eyes suddenly: "I think you don't seem to be a habit of treating wealth as your life."

"You are wrong, I have been pursuing reputation." Bell said for granted, "Why can't I desire money at the same time without any impact?"

"It must be admitted that the reason is very good." Lorraine nodded in an exaggerated manner and suddenly looked at the sky, "Bell, it's still far from Baltimore. Is it inappropriate for you to leave the rudder for this little thing?"

Bell was very keen and full of suspicion: "Why do I think you are distorting the topic?"

"How is it possible..."

Before Lorraine could finish her words, Cron walked over with her shoulders moving and saw everyone gathering around, and was surprised: "Did I miss something?"

Bell quickly said: "I'm asking our captain how much the seafarer's salary is half a year."

"Salary? Didn't you look at the contract?"

Two confused faces, and they all turned to Lorraine.

Lorraine touched her nose awkwardly: "For some special reasons, Bell's last contract was forged in a long-term contract template. My signature on Party A lacked the name of the name and did not print it privately... Well, Bell has no experience in working in a private chamber of commerce and was deceived by perfection."

Bell couldn't believe it: "Are you lied to me?"

"To be precise, I don't trust you, at least that was the case at that time." Lorraine waved her hand as if she was chasing the fly, "but the unhappiness has passed. The new contract will be supplemented according to the signing time of the previous copy, including the dividends I told you, it will not be less."

Bell still couldn't believe it: "You lied to me? No! New contract... what is the salary for a real contract?"

Seeing Lorraine look away again, Cron had no choice but to clear his throat helplessly and explain in Lorraine's tone.

"The seafarers of this chamber of commerce, including food and accommodation, and together with the president himself, share the brilliant prospects of the chamber of commerce."

Bell was completely incredible: "God! I don't have a salary!"

...

Everyone knows that Bell's pursuit of salary is just an unreasonable release after life and death.

After all, the Drake Chamber of Commerce is no longer the same as before, and the 30% dividend of the Chamber of Commerce is the main part of the income of seafarers.

Especially with the start of smuggling, its per capita monthly prepayment even exceeds the annual profits of most small chambers of commerce and some middle chambers of commerce. Drake's seafarers stepped out of the middle class and high yield, and entered the rare top-up ranks with their heads held high.

This also means that once smuggling is normalized, the Drake Chamber of Commerce, which earns more than 500,000 pounds per year, will officially enter the top chamber of commerce in terms of profit alone.

The sky is high and the clouds are light, and the sea is vast and the Jackdaw is sailing smoothly in the narrow and long bay of Chesapeake.

This is a huge Lukuo bay with a span of 350 kilometers from north to south and 5 to 60 kilometers from east to west. It has lost its anxiety and perseverance. The Jackdaw barely maintains a speed of 8 to 9 knots, and it takes a whole day and a half to arrive in Baltimore at the head of the bay.

After motivating the crew, Lorraine locked herself in the captain's room.

He wrote a booklet on the assistance of circular formations, advantages, disadvantages, trajectories, principles, developments, variants, and details. He also attached a response method suitable for Jackdaw in every predictable situation.

This is the new defensive tactic that he and Shaq have perfected together. Even if the Creator is not him, his understanding of this will not be less than Shaq.

Due to his talent, vision and other prerequisites, he even wants to win in response. Now he just wants to summarize the target from a theoretical perspective, which is of course easy for him.

The motivation for editing a booklet is simpler than the process.

This smuggling is caused by grudges, and this crazy idea will arise. The source is that he wants to make Shaq uncomfortable, or just simply wants to fight.

But as things develop to this point, this original intention is no longer important.

Lorraine knew very well that she would not find a more cost-effective business in the Americas. Even if she became a full-time pirate, human traffickers or opium merchants would not make money faster than reselling arms.

Because life is the most stable general equivalent in the world, and only when facing the war business can the issuing party spare no effort to devote one's life to it.

Human favors, flow, supply and demand, performance...

When the Left Dao was born, Lorraine never expected to get a stable and high-value order, and she never thought that she could turn smuggling into a long-term business.

But since by chance, he had already made a pie with limited seasonings and directly made himself a direct supplier of the French royal family. What other reason could he have to talk to himself?

Every month, if you dig out expenses, costs, and dividends, you can get at least 30,000 pounds, and ten months will be 300,000.

What is the value of 300,000 pounds?

Since its opening, the trade chain of the Northwest European and Western Branch has been roughly matured, with a monthly profit benchmark of 5,000 pounds.

If we estimate that the bonus of the Caribbean score after the opening of the Oceanwide Season would be able to reach 7,000 in the end, that is, dozens of large and small merchant ships, and the income could barely reach one-quarter of the guaranteed guarantee of the Jackdaw smuggling.

The basic cost of a first-class battleship representing the strongest force of the era is 100,000 pounds, and the full package is generally no more than 150,000. There are only seven ships like this in Great Britain. In ten months, Lorraine can sell two of them in full... hanging on the wall to pay homage.

In any case, a monthly income of 30,000 pounds is far better than the huge profits of the Nuggets. What's more, it's mid-1779. If Lorraine's memory is correct, this business will be much more than a year to fight.

Such huge benefits are worth giving way to anything. For Lorraine, the most urgent task at the moment is to exhaust all means to stabilize and reduce risks.

Shaq's tactics must be cracked by Jackdaw, not only Lorraine, but also Katerina, Bell and Kron who were included in the command order to prevent the missing lineup on the ship for various reasons during the long span.

In this way, writing a booklet becomes the best option at the moment.

Who is talking about it?

Books are the ladder for human beings to make money.

Lorraine neuroticly drew a gold coin, Focas gold coin, in the upper right corner of the cover of the booklet, exactly the same as the messenger who obtained the first pot of gold in Hebasi.

When Forcas' ugly beard finished his pen, Lorraine rubbed her wrist and walked out of the cabin. She glanced at the bustling and deserted Baltimore port had already appeared at the end of the sea level.

Two small armed ships came up, with stars and stripes floating at the tip of the main mast, but they were not the fifty-star strips familiar to Lorraine, but connected into a whole circle, red and white thirteen-star stripes, and the large union flag.

Caterina frowned and looked for it: "Captain, the sea in Baltimore is full of small continental army boats. We have not prepared white flags. It will be troublesome to wait for inspection all the way."

Lorraine looked at the empty mast tip of the Jackdaw, and whispered: "Hang your Rose Pirate Flag, Americans are smart, they will understand."
