In Lorraine''s concept, any problem that money can solve is not a thorny problem.
This sentence is not an evil capitalist declaration, but combined with the education of the two generations, he found that the concept of money originally appeared to solve problems.
Time cost, creative cost, execution cost, risk cost, data cost
All the factors needed by human beings to solve problems can be converted into [money] in the end. The power of general equivalents is so terrible.
With this understanding, Lorraine''s thinking is inevitably biased towards the position of conscientious capitalists.
When the sailors were very tired, they let go of the supply of coffee and tea, distributed rum in a per capita quantitative way, and stimulated people''s spirit with biological stimulants.
Fortunately, the horseshoe was pinned down, so it gave up the small profits easily available and chose a more optimized scheme with rising risks and rising profits.
This is not easy to equate money with priceless life, but there is nothing wrong in this era.
Priceless means that the value is not constant. Variables mean that there must be peaks and valleys. In this era, the value of human life is undoubtedly at the bottom.
Human life is worthless.
In the British Isle, children with unlimited possibilities are regarded as workshop consumables. In the vast non white world, the price of labor is only five to fifteen pounds.
Sailors are regarded as the most valuable technical work of this era, so navies of various countries kidnap them with whips and torture, and pirates seduce them with limited democracy and freedom.
The chamber of commerce is the most humane way of employment, but the average salary of sailors in the industry is only barely close to the annual salary level of 27-32 pounds of the middle class. More than 70% of the employment contracts will not have relevant provisions on protection, promotion and pension.
In other words, sailors risk their lives like soldiers to earn salaries, but they are not only disrespected, but also unable to protect the future.
In this regard, Drake chamber of Commerce was at the forefront of the times in its early days.
Although Lorraine did not deliberately provide sailors with remuneration higher than the market level, he did not deduct the promised pension even at the stage of insufficient funds.
After herbrazil''s exploration, Lorraine, who earned the first pot of gold, was no longer trapped by money, and finally had the ability to practice his ideas.
This idea is the special employment contract for professionals of Drake chamber of Commerce, abbreviated as boatswain''s contract.
This long contract is a sign of the formation of the corporate culture of Drake chamber of Commerce, which has fundamentally opened the gap between them and their peers in the employment environment of sailors.
The employment contract for professionals is a set of comprehensive employment contracts, which mainly faces sailors, but not limited to sailors.
For the first five years, in addition to the high annual salary of ￡ 60, he also enjoys the privilege of 18 months'' salary renewal pension and disability transfer without termination.
In addition, the covenant also enjoys two special benefits.
First, a long-term sailor can introduce an adult family member to get a special family contract without examination.
The annual salary of the family contract is only 12 pounds, but as a land post, the chamber of Commerce will provide the contractor with lower and middle-level accommodation, relatively fixed commuting time, one day''s leave per week and three times the length of service, up to 15 days of free annual leave.
These benefits have created a stable source of income focusing on the family, ensuring that even if the sailor died outside, his family can survive under the care of the chamber of Commerce in addition to the pension.
Secondly, a sailor can recommend a minor family member to receive free education from the chamber of Commerce.
The chamber of Commerce has set up its own staff school in Southampton, and Kingston''s staff school is also under steady preparation.
This is a specialized skill school with two-year class hours. The teaching contents include theology, mathematics, sales, accounting, reception, administration, etc. women also need to learn dance, fashion and make-up, while men need to receive training in fighting, boating and carpentry.
In addition, long-term employees can also recommend students to school at their own expense, which is no longer limited to immediate family members, but the full tuition fee of the school is as high as ￡ 30. Unless they obtain full scholarships in the first discipline, most employee families still can''t afford this expensive education expenditure.
In terms of security and education, Lorraine used these two benefits to draw a big cake for excellent employees loyal to the chamber of Commerce, so that they no longer live in fear and are qualified to fantasize about a stable and high-quality life on the ground.
Moreover, the content of the boatswain''s appointment is far more than the initial appointment.
Employees who have fulfilled the contract for five years or have been recommended by directors or above of the branch during the performance of the contract can get the opportunity to renew the contract for life.
The term of renewal is no longer specified and will continue until the age of 50 for men and 45 for women.
During the performance of the contract, the minimum annual salary of the employee shall be increased to ￡ 80, the family contract shall be promoted to the long-term contract, and it is allowed to recommend all minors in the immediate family to receive free education.
After the renewal expires, the chamber of commerce also prepares the most special re employment contract for talents with special talents or special dedication.
With a minimum annual salary of 200 pounds and full medical and funeral protection, as long as they are loyal and useful to the chamber of Commerce, the chamber of commerce is willing to make employees rich for a lifetime until they die.
With these three internal related contracts, Lorraine has successfully built Drake chamber of commerce into a medium-sized chamber of commerce with the strongest centripetal force and the most favored choice by excellent sailors.
He did not fail to consider the possibility of other chambers of Commerce following suit.
However, most of the truly top-level chambers of Commerce have their own talent training system, and there are few chambers of commerce with more abundant funds in the same level. The speed of information dissemination in this era can not be compared with that of future generations
More than a year after the contract was launched, Drake is still a unique presence in the talent market.
Maybe... Is this the process of establishing talent training system for those top chambers of Commerce?
Lorraine doesn''t know.
He only knew that even if he did not put forward plans such as industrial injury, medical treatment, housing and general pension, which would bring great pressure on the finance of the chamber of Commerce, even if the chamber of commerce actually signed less than 300 initial contracts and less than 20 renewal contracts, he had succeeded in winning the hearts of the people.
Especially after the establishment of the Caribbean chapter, the first group of long-term sailors represented by Leonard''s father came ashore and were reused. There was no problem of morale and willingness on his ship.
The sailors openly supported him and cooperated with him. Whether they were involved in traitorous smuggling activities, or accepted difficult combat missions and continuous operations day and night, the sailors readily accepted him and made every effort to contribute their strength to Lorraine''s will.
Obviously, the cooperative relationship between them has been stable, with money as the medium and emotion as the end.
Lorraine knows that he has the expectations of countless sailors to settle down and start a career. He has no obligation to these expectations, but in the process of his success, he will certainly realize the expectations of countless people.
Like the Savior
In the direction of the stern, the plume of smoke from the sunken slave ship was fading.
In the direction of the bow, the gunfire rumbled, the blockade of the first and fifth channels had begun, and the huge Andes had rushed out of the islands and reefs in the fourth channel of the decisive battle.
Just in time
Lorraine glanced at the battle flag floating on the tip of the mast. In the middle, the main mast was the bright rice flag representing the Navy background, the first mast was the tricolor pansy representing the employment status of the chamber of Commerce, and the back mast was the red and white Saint George guarding the golden deer motherland.
The hint is obvious enough.
Compared with badgers and wasps who fight hard and easily give birth to the heart of death, armed merchant ships that generally lack fighting will and fighting level are obviously more suitable targets for flag worship.
In order to win, come and sink me
Lorraine looked at the approaching Andes and magically got out of battle.
What should we do next? Guide sailors to form a crew Union?
Trade unions are the inevitable product of the development of employee treatment to a certain extent, because it is more and more difficult to negotiate with capitalists, and the naturally weak water gestures need to unite together to pursue collective demands.
Lorraine covered her mouth and was lost in thought.
"That is, the emergence of trade unions has historical inevitability. Instead, it is mostly beneficial for me to guide the establishment. For example, it is convenient to steal the leadership of trade unions, design a capital favorable election system, and let trade unions deteriorate in advance... What else?"
Murmuring, the decisive battle will start
