Time flies, two months flies.

The Jackdaw's ship appeared in the harbor of Baltimore for the seventh time. Although it has not yet officially entered the harbor of almost exclusive No. 3 water warehouse, it has undoubtedly announced the first contract cycle of Lorraine smuggling, with a total of two contract rounds and one additional round of smuggling activities officially completed.

The contract lasted for three months from July to September. Lorraine handed over 6,300 Charlville rifles, 3,400 Dragoon pistols, and 24 new light guns, which could build two elite grenade regiments and three standard line private regiments with ample capacity.

The Americans paid 782,400 pounds for this, of which 186,480 pounds belonged to the Drake Chamber of Commerce. After deducting the expenses, Lorraine alone was 108,000 pounds, which made his cash flow exceed 110,000 pounds, approaching 120,000.

This was the most cash-rich moment in Lorraine's business career. The controllable funds include 120,000 yuan, Pierce 20,000 yuan and Henna 6,000 yuan, with a total amount of about 150,000 pounds, equivalent to more than one ton of gold.

The seafarers also felt that they were full of money. Like Henna, each of them received one-ninth of the 30% profit of the Chamber of Commerce, with an average monthly income of 2,000 pounds, far exceeding the Caribbean score before the opening of the Oceanwide.

Compared with the entire large-scale chamber of commerce with personal power, the profits of smuggling are amazing.

The sailors on the Jackdaw are of course also sharers of interests.

Working the most dangerous job and receiving the highest salary was Lorraine's promise to them. Although he did not give the sailors special treatment on the contract, he never delayed the promised bonus because of his wealth.

Each contract round has a six-year annual salary, a total of one year, with a total of 200 people on and off the ship, with a total amount of only more than 5,000 pounds.

This number is of course a drop in the bucket compared to Lorraine and the seafarers, but for these ordinary sailors, it is enough to make everyone's wallets bulge.

The thickness of the wallet has always been proportional to a person's tolerance.

The big cakes drawn by Lorraine were realized one by one, and the sailors were excited and brave, unconsciously forgetting the accumulated fatigue in their bodies.

The unscrupulous capitalists were still worried about the health of the crew at first, but over time, Kings Mountain was around, and even Lorraine became energetic and immersed herself in the joy of harvest.

It was not until the fifth round of smuggling that the two sailors fainted and fell into the water during the voyage that Lorraine suddenly realized that the Jackdaw had climbed onto the tip of the knife without knowing it.

I was afraid that Lorraine's head would be printed all over.

Since then, he abandoned the principle of pure money stimulation and forced the rotation and rotation to be added outside the middle break, that is, one-fifth of the crew members rest on the shore, and three-line rotation is implemented for the operation positions on the ship.

The reduction in companions and the movement of personnel made the Jackdaw clumsy for a certain period of time.

In the sixth round of smuggling, Karen's rotating captain and Jackdaw made two consecutive mistakes in the process of avoiding the circle, almost activate the coordinated defense mechanism.

Fortunately, Lorraine was holding perhaps the most tactic against Shaq in the world, and Emmons' extremely dedicated intelligence as a supplement.

Moreover, since Shaq entered the rotation period, the operation of the formation has become lazy and the level of cooperative defense has dropped significantly.

The smuggling routes in Chesapeake Bay were much more lively in August and September than in July. The clumsy Jackdaw mixed in and rushed into the entrance of the bay with speed and experience, and successfully survived the pain of the new system without paying any price.

By the time of the seventh smuggling, the Jackdaw had already moved much smoother. In the end, it passed through the entrance of the bay and drove into the bustling dock of Baltimore.

Looking at the coming and going of ships that were completely different from July, Lorraine sighed: "In April, Galves said that the return rate of this route was less than 20%, and I thought it was alarmist. Now I think it was a shocking thing. In April, July, and October, it was Shaq who was holding the door. Galves probably had water mixed with the return rate."

Katerina and Clen nodded in agreement.

Katerina said: "But it also entrusted the blessing of that special period, otherwise with the current smuggling success rate, the Count would not have been so easy to hand over the exclusive operation to us."

"This is the truth that good fortune depends on misfortune."

Lorraine didn't expect her two acting captains to understand Chinese, so she said something to herself and handed them new information.

"Beire got the Bermuda patrol round from October to December before going to sea. Next month is Shaq's blockade round, and I am going to suspend the rest and only retain the job rotation."

He sighed.

"The Jackdaw's sailors are too good to be of great quality. There are several basic knots that cannot be tied smoothly. The only two advantages are courage and seasickness."

"Although they were barely able to do their jobs when avoiding the round after more than twenty days of rotation, they waited until Shaq took over the blockade of the formation..."

"In short, you have to consider the order of replacement when scheduling. Remember that the best state of Jackdaw is to avoid combat as much as possible, not to wait for the fighter plane and seek victory."

The two of them are Zheng Xintou.

After a while, the American escort ships were attached from both sides, and the sailors and sailors stood on the side of the side and greeted each other familiarly, attracting the merchant ships to watch.

In Baltimore, warship escort has become a unique symbol of Jackdaw. Even though smuggling has recovered in the past two months and ships traveling in the port have become much more frequent, Jackdaw still enjoys the honor, not looking like a smuggler, but rather like a hero that Americans are obsessed with.

But the Jackdaw is indeed like a hero.

It has entered Hong Kong seven times in three months, which is stable and efficient. Regardless of whether God favors Americans or not, the Jackdaw can visit on time.

It monopolizes Baltimore's arms deal. It is clearly the most dangerous and irritating smuggling, but the hull, which is not glamorous, never has any scars.

Although its sailors were vulgar, they were all positive and not as depressed as other ships today and would not know what they would be tomorrow.

It is said to be honest that the Jackdaw illuminated Baltimore's belief in victory. In an era when the entire Thirteen Continents were confused and could not find the direction of victory, only Baltimoreans firmly believed that they would win and that Americans would dominate their future.

The Jackdaw deserves such an honor!

The three ships were in parallel, the water lines were intertwined, and their swaggering tracks went deep into the port area.

Lorraine saw the flag saying "Welcome Home" on the American warship, and then the sailors on the bow shouted.

"Peak-to-docking is completed, the waterway is cleared! Flag words, old rules, warehouse No. 3!"

"Left rudder ten degrees, retract the sail!"

“Distance 150, vertical!”

"The water door is confirmed, the water door is opened. The berth is confirmed, the berth is good!"

"Cable group, anchor group is ready! Emergency pole preparation!"

"One minute to enter the warehouse!"

"Pilotman's Flag Speech: Today's dinner is beef stewed with potatoes, and the wine is enough. Welcome home, brothers!"

"The bow cuts into the dripping eaves, and the Crown enters the warehouse!"

"Enter the port!"
Chapter completed!
