MTL - Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat-Chapter 15 Entry to the Admiralty
Chapter 15 Entry to the Admiralty
After Fang Lang left Lilith's house, Lilith's parents began a detailed interrogation of Lilith and Fang Lang's relationship experience. When Lilith said that tonight was the first meeting between the two in a month after Fang Lang was discharged from the hospital. Lilith's mother directly stated that he was interested in this young man, and demanded that Lilith must hold this son-in-law in her hands, which made Lilith so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground.
Although Lilith has a good impression of Fanglang, and the relationship between the two of them was a step closer yesterday than before, Lilith still thinks that the two should get to know each other a little bit better to see if it is suitable for further development.
In the end, Lilith's father made a concluding speech on behalf of the head of the family: "Let's not get involved. The personal relationship between Lilith and Fang Lang is still up to them. If they can get together, I hope it's because of love." Don't affect your judgment of your feelings just because I'm working for him, you know, Lilith!"
"I understand Dad! You still love me the most."
Such a beautiful misunderstanding made Lilith's family members know Fang Lang, and because of the family's misunderstanding, Fang Lang's status in Lilith's mind quietly changed.
Early the next morning, when Fang Lang came downstairs to the company's office building, Lilith's father, Umaru Coburn, was already waiting downstairs in the company. Fang Lang stepped forward very naturally, and after shaking hands with him, he opened the door and entered the office building.
It is also the first time Fang Lang has entered this office building. This is a four-story baroque building. The materials used in the entire building are very particular. Although Fang Lang doesn't know what kind of stone it is, it can be seen that it is definitely not cheap. . The inside and outside of the house are finely crafted sculptures, and the decoration is very gorgeous.
This made Fang Lang feel that his $40,000 was well worth it. If it weren't for the war period, Fang Lang believed that such a building covering an area of nearly 1,000 square meters would not be able to be sold. The absolute value of this building in the 21st century is over 100 million.
But at this time, this kind of architecture can be seen everywhere in Italy, but few people care about it. Fortunately, someone has obviously taken care of the building, and it was cleaned up very neatly. Even the desks and chairs are all complete, which are obviously left over from the original, which saves Fang Lang a lot of trouble.
Because I made an appointment with the mayor of Naples yesterday, all recommended people will come here for an interview at 9:00 this morning. The task of Fang Lang and Mr. Coburn this morning is to interview all the personnel. Set up the shelves of the Italian branch of Global Trading Co., Ltd. within today, and recruit enough captains and sailors for your own fleet.
Soon people began to come for interviews one after another. Fang Lang only interviewed the company's financial personnel, and Mr. Coburn came to interview the other personnel. The management personnel such as the captain's mate of the fleet were also interviewed by Fang Lang. As for the other sailors, Fang Lang handed it over to the captain's mate to recruit themselves. Therefore, the recruitment work was barely completed in one morning.
When the basic structure of the personnel was completed, Fang Lang first asked Mr. Coburn to arrange for two special personnel to go to the naval warehouse to guard the warehouse and prepare to receive the cargo brought by the crew. Fang Lang explained the main business of Global Trading Company to Mr. Coburn in detail. He also asked him to arrange special personnel to go to the market to collect commodities that are in short supply and can create high value, and to regularly report the market price of the commodities to himself and the New York head office by telegram, so that the company can adjust the commodities it transports.
Fang Lang knew the importance of information very early on, so he planned to arrange professional telegraph rooms in several of his companies and fleets to facilitate timely communication and transmission of information. The New York headquarters is notified by telegram, and every shipment from the New York headquarters needs to be notified by telegram to the Italian branch, forming a closed loop. Avoid being pocketed by the company's people when Fang Lang is not around.
Finally finished handling the company's affairs on this day, Fang Lang had to go back to the barracks to report, because Colonel Atilio Parisi of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army Navy sent a military order asking him to arrive before nine o'clock tomorrow morning. The Brazilian Navy Command reported.
The commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force is only a major general, so the supreme commander of the navy is Colonel Atilio Parisi. If Fang Lang wants to have a good life in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, he must handle the relationship with the highest officer.
So Fang Lang didn't dare to discount the Colonel's order in the slightest, and rushed to the Colonel's office at nine o'clock the next morning to report.
"Report! Fang Lang, Second Lieutenant of the Expeditionary Army Navy, was ordered to report!" Fang Lang's military salute has always been very standard, which is mainly due to his military training experience in the university in his previous life.
"Come in!" The voice from the office was very dignified. When Fang Lang opened the door and entered, he found two Brazilian military officers sitting in the office. A thin, fair-skinned, hook-nosed middle-aged colonel was sitting at the desk, looking at him majestically, while the next to him On the sofa in the reception area sat a lieutenant colonel officer with a brownish red skin and a belly with obvious Brazilian characteristics, looking at Fang Lang with a smile on his face.
Fang Lang who entered the office just glanced at the office environment, and then came to the colonel's desk without turning his eyes. He stood at attention and saluted: "Report! Mr. Colonel, Second Lieutenant Fang Lang was ordered to report."
"Relax!" Colonel Atilio Parisi looked up and down the second lieutenant officer in front of him. He was tall and straight, 1.8 meters tall, with black hair and black eyes, and an obviously Asian face.
"Second Lieutenant Fang Lang, I have read your resume, and the army has given you a very high evaluation of your performance on the battlefield. I welcome a heroic soldier like you to join our navy."
"Thank you, sir! I am also very honored to be able to join the commander's command and serve the country!"
"I heard from Brigadier General Jackson that you have passed the assessment of the US military and have the ability to drive ocean-going ships, so I hope you come here today. You can hurry up and get acquainted with your colleagues in the navy. We will get it from the US military immediately." Take over the transport ship and start the transport work as soon as possible." Mr. Colonel did not greet Fang Lang, the second lieutenant, but directly cut to the topic and asked to start work as soon as possible.
"Yes, sir!"
"This is Lieutenant Colonel Graham from the Logistics Department of the Expeditionary Force Headquarters. In the future, your ship will be mainly responsible for docking with the Lieutenant Colonel, transporting the remains of my fallen soldiers and the spoils back to Brazil. Do you understand clearly!" Atilio Colonel Parisi pointed to the smiling lieutenant colonel officer on the sofa.
"Report, sir, my ship will be responsible for transporting the remains and trophies of my fallen soldiers back to Brazil. The order is clear!" Fang Lang repeated the order loudly, then turned to Lieutenant Colonel Graham and saluted: "Hello, sir!"
Lieutenant Colonel Graham's work style is obviously much looser. After raising his hand casually, he said directly to the other side: "Hello, I don't know how long it will take you to build your team. We need to ship back to Brazil the supplies and The remains of the fallen soldiers will be transported to Naples tomorrow, and I hope to set sail as soon as possible."
"Reporting sir, this time will take more than a week at the fastest, because I need to meet and get familiar with my crew first, and then go to the US military to receive our ship. After getting familiar with the ship, we can set off." Fang Lang didn't want to go so soon Let's go! The Italian company still needs him to participate in the construction, and the little girl Lilith still needs him to attack.
Of course, what Fang Lang said is also true, and now he doesn't know what level of ability the crew members assigned to him have. Don't wait for the troublesome rookies with no sailing experience!
Fortunately, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel just frowned deeply and didn't say anything more.
Soon Fang Lang left Colonel Atilio Parisi's office, and under the leadership of his adjutant, he came to a military camp. In front of a barracks, there was already a team of more than fifty people waiting for the arrival of the new chief in the cold wind.
After the adjutant announced the appointment of Fang Lang by the headquarters in front of the team, he handed over the team to Fang Lang. Looking at the team of about fifty people in front of him, Fang Lang was excited. Finally, the buddies are also the ones who lead the troops.
