As a new comer in the limelight in the past two years, Drake''s trading office in Elgin is located at No. 4 IMER street.

    There is the fork lane of Fanhua street, only 100 meters away from the small theater holding the auction. Standing outside the small theater, you can see the huge signboard made of teak, pointing to the small building with red bricks and black tiles, full of style.

    The small building has three floors.

    Entering the first floor is the trading hall. The exhibits in the glass cabinet change according to the inventory. At present, the swords and fur of northern Europe and the cocoa and tobacco of the new world are displayed.

    The general rule of the trade office is that small transactions are settled on the spot, and large transactions or reservations are made to the reception room at the back to further negotiate the details of the transaction.

    The same is true of Drake trading house.

    Up the second floor is the seaman''s dormitory

    There are two suites on the second floor, Haina on the left, Noah on the right, and Lorraine''s office and bedroom on the third floor.

    Pierce and Karen don''t live in the building.

    At the back of the building is the warehouse of the business group and an independent affiliated building. Two boys live in the affiliated building.

    The affiliated building has a large yard, which is not only convenient for pierce to practice fighting and physical fitness, but also suitable for Karen''s occasional large manual and daily design and drawing.

    Such an environment is not loose.

    In my heart, Lorraine has indeed made a lot of money in the past two years. However, the business group is far from rich enough to separate public and private. Living in the exchange is also based on the principle of saving if you can.

    After all, there are not too many rotations for the business group.

    Pierce strode into the exchange. The little child had no childlike innocence on his face and frowned like a teenager with emotional problems for the first time.

    The young clerk ran up with a smile: "Vice President..."

    "Zhenna, where is brother?"

    "Mr. Drake? He''s meeting guests in the reception room..."

    "Reception room... I''ll find him!"

    Regardless of the embarrassment on Miss Zhenna''s face, pierce hurriedly pushed the door in and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "brother..."

    The four people who were talking looked up together, three surprised and one dissatisfied.

    Of course, Lorraine is dissatisfied.

    Lorraine, who is 18 years old, is taller than two years ago. He is basically as tall as Karen. Moreover, his height has slowed down in the past two years. His symmetrical muscles finally begin to show a little shape. He looks a little bigger, at least he won''t give people the feeling of weight loss.

    This also makes him particularly dignified when he is dissatisfied.

    "Pierce Yates..."

    Pierce''s heart pounded and shouted that it was going to be bad.

    "What are England''s requirements for gentlemen?"

    "Always calm, always calm, always confident, sir!"

    "Look at yourself..." Lorraine looked at him calmly and said word by word, "go and tidy up. This will be very important."

    "Eh? Yes!"

    Little pierce ran away, ran back to the building as fast as he could, took a bath for himself, and changed into a full set of dress, including shirt, vest, bow tie, trousers, leather shoes and tuxedo.

    Because his age is not even a teenager, his shirt and lace have to be wrinkled and smoothed at the cuffs to avoid looking frivolous.

    If you''re frivolous, why don''t you get rid of the lace!

    He said in his heart, with no resentment on his face. After dressing up, he returned to the reception hall and gently called the glottis: "Sir, I''m ready."

    "Enter."

    Pierce gently opened the door and sat down straight over the small stool behind Lorraine.

    There are four people in the room besides him.

    It goes without saying that Lorraine, who has begun to have great authority, has Ramos, Mr. piddick''s agent in Elgin port, and Eddie, sir Stavanger Garman''s agent.

    Pierce, the only lady in the room, had never seen her before. She had dark hair, dark hair and deep eyes. It seemed that she was a Castilian with some Moorish blood, that is, a Spaniard.

    She is very young. She should be around 20. She is wearing a bright red dress, revealing a large amount of snow greasy skin on her chest and arms. She is beautiful, sexy, generous and moving.

    Lorraine tapped the back of the sofa. "Miss Xavier met pierce for the first time. Let me introduce you."

    "Pierce Yates, the shareholder and vice president of Drake business group, my seafarer intern and the owner of the beauty of Yates."

    "Carmen Xavier, vicomte Alfonso''s agent and our partner in belmayo, is very capable. After only eight months, the profit of belmayo line has increased by 30%

    Pierce quickly got up and saluted Carmen. Somehow, he always felt that the name seemed to have been heard somewhere

    Two years was so long that pierce couldn''t remember his country cousin.

    Two years ago, Carmen followed the footsteps of love and moved into the Viscount''s manor.

    She intended to be famous and adhere to the sanctity before marriage, while the Viscount only wanted her stomach, express and hint, forcing her to become the Viscount''s mistress.

    Exhausted physically and mentally, she chose to show off to the viscount. As a result, the Viscount only wanted to embrace left and right, and scoffed at Carmen''s wings.

    There was a contradiction between the two sides, and the road of love came to an end.

    This long and fruitless love lasted five years after all.

    Either because of guilt, or because of a long time together, she established trust with the viscount.

    In short, she changed herself and became an employee of Lorraine as an agent of viscount. She officially took over all the business of the business group in Spain eight months ago. She also showed unparalleled business talent and communication talent.

    Carmen Xavier has now become the most beautiful flower admired by everyone in Bilbao''s upper class circle.

    Pierce didn''t remember her, and Lorraine didn''t want to mention the hurtful past, but continued.

    "Pierce is a shareholder of the business group. He was out at sea. I didn''t expect him to come back. Now that he has caught up, I suggest that he should also participate in the discussion."

    His inquisitive eyes swept over the three partners, all of whom generously agreed.

    Pierce felt the formality of the meeting and said nervously, "brother, I can''t help... I don''t even understand..."

    "Just listen," Lorin Wen comforted him. "This is also part of the internship. Don''t forget that you are not only a sailor, but also a businessman."

    Pierce nodded heavily.

    After straightening out Pierce''s eligibility, Lorraine crossed his fingers.

    "After two years and one month''s development, the Drake business group now has assets of 11800 pounds, three other trading houses and four Kirk class ships, namely the Artemis beauty, the Beverly merchant, the caville drunkard and the Northrend knight."

    "In the last year, the average monthly trade of the business group was 2900 pounds and the profit was 1600 pounds. After 30% profit, the business group gained 1120 pounds."

    "And because of Miss Xavier''s excellent performance, we have greatly improved our commodity categories and quality, and have established trade relations with several genuine chambers of Commerce."

    "In addition, six months ago, Mr. piddick competed for the Malian County Councillor. We provided him with a political contribution of £ 2000 and got a huge return because he succeeded."

    At this point, Lorraine took a deep breath.

    "Half a month ago, I went to London and got all the requirements for registering a formal chamber of Commerce in England."

    "I. make a formal written application to the Trade Association; II. A deposit of £ 1000; III. The recommendation of no less than three gentlemen; IV. the recommendation of three chambers of commerce with trade rights in England."

    "I''ll write the application. We also have money. I''ve got the recommendation of the chamber of Commerce. As for the recommendation of gentlemen, Mr. piddick won two letters for us from his parliamentary friends. He can write one himself."

    "Drake has all the conditions for establishing a chamber of Commerce, so I''m ready to officially register in England and establish a chamber of Commerce!"
