She Is Not a Witch Chapter 52: Chamber structure


  The Westwind Kingdom has always had a family-oriented tradition, and it is common to talk about things at the table. Verga was once a part of the Westwind, and the customs in this area have also been affected.

   Lorrain Hill first sat down at the table, and then other branch presidents took their seats in order. Other important personnel included the leader of the Carrites fleet, the manager of a large shop, the supervisor of the workshop, etc. , These people together constitute 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 nodding slightly, gradually building 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, then the Chamber of Commerce is divided into several parts.

   One is the president of the local branch. The branch is mainly responsible for the sale and purchase of local shops, some crop farms, 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. They mainly trade between the South China Sea Islands and the Verdant 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 purchasing and transporting goods from some raw material producing areas on land, and has its own armed guards.

  Because 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 new tablecloths and serve refreshments.

  Hopland, as a seaport city, is not too hot even in summer. However, considering the large number of people in the hall, Serres, the housekeeper, arranged for the maids to bring 20 ice books to the corner of the hall. The temperature is also Slowly came 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 the same and didn't seem to care, some looked at her suspiciously, some hesitated but stopped, some lowered their heads Without a word, others seemed to be more interested in her appearance. ‘

   Lorraine Hill is not surprising, after all, this incident is very sudden, and no one can accept it immediately. In addition, she is too young, and it is normal for some people to distrust and worry. After a little pause, she motioned to let Chelsea took out the suicide note, of course the one that appeared to be public, which showed that Angus transferred all of his property to his offspring, Lacey.

   The suicide note was carefully held by Chelsea, and was 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 a round of transmission, most of the Chamber of Commerce officials present recognized Lorraine Hill’s leadership position. Although the Calides Chamber of Commerce was founded by Angus, he only had 60% of the shares before he died. , The remaining 40% of the shares are scattered among the cadres of these chambers of commerce. On the one hand, it is to encourage, on the other hand, it is also to firmly retain 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 started to urge the settlement of accounts."

   "How often did you liquidate the accounts before?" Lorrain Hill asked.

   "As usual, the large chambers of commerce clean up their accounts once a year, and the small chambers of commerce half a year. At present, the liquidity of the chamber 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. It can buffer the time difference, and also give them peace of mind."

  "In the case of the Big Chamber of Commerce, they are relatively strong against stress. At this point in time, they will be settled once a year as usual. If you still require the recent settlement of accounts, report it to me, and I will visit it in person. "

   "Next, keep talking."

   "Due to the recent Westerly civil strife, many raw materials that were usually purchased by Westerly have been affected a lot." A team leader said with some distress.

  "Which are very important and need to be acquired by Xifeng?"

  "It is 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, if we have timber, the shipyard still reserves a little bit. In addition, we can take delivery of a few ships that we had prepared for ourselves, and we can barely finish it."

   "Okay, let the fleet go to the Green Empire to replenish the shortage. There is also a lot of wood production there, but it is not cost-effective to transport too far."

  "For cotton...Is there a lot of spinning orders in the workshop recently?"

   "Yes, Miss, West Wind is recruiting troops urgently recently. Many nobles over there have ordered burqas and uniform uniforms from us."

  "Suspend orders, the nobles’ orders are not in a hurry, and a small amount of orders should be completed first~IndoMTL.com~Lorlandhill suspects that these Westwind nobles will not be able to wait for the time to receive the goods.

  "As for fruits, let the fleet go to the South China Sea Islands to purchase."

   Lorrain Hill dealt with all kinds of problems quickly, his wrists were orderly, and he could grasp the key to the problem at once, which was surprising.

   "Okay, next one, any questions?"

  "Hello eldest lady, nowadays westerly civil strife, many chambers of commerce have begun to store food, do we also want to store some."

   "No, it's the same as usual. Besides, we don't have a lot of money now." Lorrain Hill shook his head holding the teacup.

   Although it is foreseeable that the price of food will rise, the most important thing is to go through it smoothly now. It is not clear whether the Tisifones 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, asked Lorrain Hill to wipe his hands, and then asked the maids present to clean up the messy desk.

   "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 behaves very well, she is not always 16 or 17 years old."

   "I'm not that good." Lorrain Hill got 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 they left, but the result is not as humble as you said."
