She Is Not a Witch
Chapter 52: Chamber of Commerce Structure
The Westerly Kingdom has always had a family-oriented tradition, and it is common to talk about things at the table. Verga used to be part of the Westerly, and the customs in this area have also been affected.
Lorrain Hill first sat down at the dinner table, and then other branch presidents took their seats in order. Other important personnel included the leader of Carrites’s fleet, the manager of a large shop, the director of workshops, etc., these people Together they form the framework of the Chamber of Commerce.
At the dinner table, Lorrain Hill sipped bread, watching the Chamber of Commerce staff introduce himself once, and occasionally nodded slightly, gradually constructing the structure and composition of the Chamber of Commerce in his mind.
If she is the brain that commands everything in the Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce is divided into several parts.
One is the local branch president. The branch is mainly responsible for the sale and purchase of local shops, some crop estates, and some other chores and a small number of guards.
The second is a big workshop, mainly processing the purchased raw materials, such as textiles, oil extraction, shipbuilding, etc., of which shipbuilding is an important industry of Calides.
The third is the leader of the fleet. At present, there are three large fleets in the Chamber of Commerce, which mainly trade between the South China Sea Islands and the Green Empire. There are 16 other scattered fleets. The ships are also equipped with artillery and have a certain combat effectiveness.
Fourth is the convoy manager, mainly responsible for the purchase and transportation of goods from some raw material producing areas on land, and has its own armed guards.
Since many of them are new faces, even after Lorrain Hill finished the meal, many people did not introduce them. Chelsea asked the maids to clean up the tableware, then put on a new tablecloth and serve refreshments.
As a seaport city, Hopelander is not too hot even in summer, but considering the large number of people in the hall, Serres, the housekeeper, arranged for the maids to move 20 ice books to the corner of the hall, and the temperature slowly dropped. Down.
After the introduction by the cadres of the Chamber of Commerce, Lorrain Hill also briefly introduced himself.
...
"Due to the sudden death of my father, I will take over the Chamber of Commerce in the future."
Her gaze slowly swept across the audience. Some of them looked unchanged and didn't seem to care, some looked at her suspiciously, some hesitated and stopped, and some bowed their heads without saying a word. In other words, some people seem to be more interested in her looks. ‘
Lorrain Hill was not surprised either. After all, this incident was very sudden, and no one could accept it immediately. In addition, she was too young, and it was normal for some people to distrust and worry. After a little pause, she motioned for Chelsea to take it out. The suicide note, of course, is the one that appears to be public, which shows that Angus has transferred all of his property to his offspring, Lacey.
The suicide note was carefully held by Chelsea and shown to the members present. And Lorrain Hill sat in his seat, quietly observing the expressions of these members, and then kept jot down.
After passing a round, most of the Chamber of Commerce officials present recognized Lorraine Hill’s leadership position. Although the Calites Chamber of Commerce was founded by Angus, he only had 60% of the shares before his death. 40% of the shares are scattered among the cadres of these chambers of commerce. On the one hand, it is an incentive, on the other hand, it also firmly retains some talented people.
"Are there any other major events in the Chamber of Commerce recently?" Lorrain Hill asked, wanting to understand the current situation briefly.
"Hello, Miss, due to the sudden death of Lord Angus, many other chambers of commerce are afraid of our disintegration and have recently begun to urge the settlement of accounts."
"How often did you settle the accounts before?" Lorrain Hill asked.
"As usual, the large chambers of commerce clean up their accounts once a year, while the small chambers of commerce clean up their accounts for half a year. At present, the liquidity of the chambers of commerce is limited and cannot be fully paid."
"Let the small chamber of commerce sort out the accounts by themselves, and then settle the accounts in order with us. Explain in advance that if there are false reports and false reports, they will wait until next year, so that they will settle the accounts slowly, and we will come one by one. This will be able to pull out. The time difference is buffered, and it also gives them peace of mind."
"In the case of the Big Chamber of Commerce, their ability to withstand pressure is relatively strong. Not short of this time, they will be settled once a year as usual. If you still need to settle accounts in the near future, report it to me, and I will visit it in person."
"Next, keep talking."
"Due to the recent Westerly civil strife, many of the raw materials that were usually purchased by Westerly have been affected a lot." A team leader said with some distress.
"What are important and need to be acquired by Xifeng?"
"It's mainly wood, fruit, and cotton. Others are not large, and they can be added elsewhere."
"Related to these raw materials, don't take orders anymore recently. How many raw materials are missing from the existing orders?" Lorrain Hill asked.
"Returning to the eldest lady, the shipyard still reserves a bit of wood. In addition, we can barely complete the delivery of a few ships that we had prepared for ourselves."
"Okay, let the fleet go to the Green Empire to replenish the shortage. There is also a lot of wood production there, but the transportation is usually too far and it is not cost-effective."
"For cotton...Is there a lot of spinning orders in the workshop recently?"
"Yes, eldest lady, the West Wind has recently recruited soldiers urgently. Many nobles over there have ordered burqas and uniform uniforms from us."
" Suspend the order, the nobles do not rush their orders, and complete a small amount of orders first~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Lorrain Hill suspects that these Westwind nobles will not be able to receive the goods.
"As for fruits, let the fleet go to the South China Sea Islands to purchase."
Lorrain Hill dealt with various problems quickly, his wrists were in order, and he could grasp the key to the problem at once, which was surprising.
"Alright, next one, any questions?"
"Hello, Miss, nowadays westerly civil strife, many chambers of commerce have begun to store food, do we want to store some too?"
"No, it's the same as usual, besides, we don't have a lot of money now." Lorrain Hill held the teacup and shook his head.
Although it is foreseeable that the price of food will rise, the most important thing is to spend it smoothly now. It is not clear whether the Tisiphone family will take the next step. They are professional warmongers.
Then Lorrain Hill dealt with some problems flexibly, and finally the meeting slowly broke up late at night.
After the meeting, the Chamber of Commerce slowly left the scene, while Lorrain Hill was at the table alone, rubbing his head with his fingers.
"Thanks, Miss." Chelsea handed over a white towel from the side, let Lorrain Hill wipe his hands, and then asked the maids present to clean up the messy tabletop.
"Hmm... I feel like there are a lot of things, have they been like this before?"
"There are not so many. It is probably the sudden departure of Lord Angus that made everyone a little uneasy. I want to get a reassuring answer from you."
"The eldest behaved very well, she didn't want to be 16 or 17 years old at all."
"I'm not that good." Lorrain Hill stood up from the chair, moved a little, and denied with a smile.
"Really, but I see those managers who looked at ease and admiration before leaving, the result is not as humble as you said."
