586, thanks to the 10500 who never turn back time at the award ceremony
The problem of the new route was solved, and Sean was very happy.
In the afternoon, he came to Kapur Port through the [Teleportal Gate] and told Lor'themar and Windsor the good news.
In Sean's study at the Port Capul residence, Lor'themar and Windsor were also very happy after learning the news.
Windsor smiled and said: "We harvested a large number of troop transports and warships from the last war, and they can be used as merchant ships with a little modification.
Now the combat effectiveness of Anjou's southern navy is basically zero. As long as there is no harassment from sky-level powerhouses, this new route can bring us huge profits!"
Lor'themar also said: "Now that we have a new shipping route, we are not afraid that the Camellia family will get stuck! Moreover, our products, especially paper, soap, and perfume, are completely beyond the times. I dare to predict that in less than half a year,
, Rumi Esther will definitely cry and shout that she wants to do business with us again!”
"Haha." Sean also laughed: "You are so right! For businessmen, cutting off their wealth is like killing their parents. The businessmen of Rumi Aster will never allow the Shancha family to use a large amount of
Profits are given away.”
At the same time, Sean clapped his hands and stood up: "Okay, you go and do your work! I will go find Powell later and hold a 'medal awarding ceremony' tomorrow afternoon. You remember to attend!"
"No problem, sir." Lor'themar and Windsor said goodbye to Sean and left the residence.
.
After the two left, Sean went to the auction house next door and found Morgan's assistant, Dolly.
Dolly is the daughter of Henry the housekeeper. She is 21 years old and looks pretty good.
She had studied at the John Etiquette Academy, was proficient in aristocratic etiquette, and knew some superficial arithmetic. She was recently arranged by Henry to serve as Morgan's assistant in Port Caple.
When Dolly saw Sean, who she had always regarded as the "incarnation of the God of Light", suddenly appeared in front of her, she was so surprised that her heart almost stopped beating.
She hurriedly knelt down to Sean and said hesitantly: "Lord... Lord, why... why are you here? Are... are... looking for Lord Morgan?"
"Hey, you don't have to kneel down." Sean used magic power to help her up and said gently: "You are Dolly, right? Henry's daughter?"
"Hmm... um." Dolly's face turned red, her head lowered and she rubbed her clothes uneasily.
"I'm here to find you. I want you to be my new butler. I'm short of a butler here in Port Caple." Sean smiled.
"Butler? Can I...can I?" Dolly was a little frightened and didn't know if she was qualified.
"I heard your father mentioned you. With your current ability, you can definitely serve as a housekeeper." Sean patted her shoulder: "I will assign you a task now. You go to Eagle Fort and call Earl Powell.
."
"Okay, we must complete the task!" Dolly was obviously relieved when he heard that the task was so simple.
.
Half an hour later.
Sean was writing and drawing in the study when he suddenly heard a knock on the door and Dolly's voice: "Lord...Master, Lord Earl Powell is here."
"Okay, let him in." Sean said loudly, and at the same time began to clear away the books on the table.
Earl Powell walked into the study with a smile on his face: "Your Highness Sean, you are back! I heard that you have captured the city of Yohn?"
"Of course, we won it very smoothly." Sean stood up and said with a smile: "Powell, I came to you this time for an important matter."
"Oh, what's the matter?" Powell was now very accustomed to Sean's way of talking about things and getting straight to the point, and he quickly got into the mood.
Sean: "That's right. I plan to hold a grand medal ceremony tomorrow, mainly to commend the soldiers who fought bravely in this naval battle."
Earl Powell's face became serious: "Yes, we do need such a medal ceremony, they deserve it. At the same time, we should also commemorate and mourn the heroes who died in this war!"
"That's right, the awarding ceremony will be hosted by your family."
"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Earl Powell said confidently.
After saying that, Earl Powell was ready to say goodbye: "Sir, I will go and prepare now."
"Wait, Powell." Sean stopped Powell: "There is one more thing I must let you know in advance."
"What's the matter?" Powell turned around, his tone slightly worried.
"This matter is about reform. I believe you already know about the reform of John City, right?" Sean asked.
Powell nodded heavily: "Most of the nobles in Port Kapur don't know yet, but we big forces have long known about this through the Magic Association."
"What are your thoughts on this reform?" Sean asked.
"This..." Earl Powell didn't know what to say.
.
After a while, he said: "That's it, His Highness Sean. In fact, for major families, the bigger the family, the more difficult it is to accept transformation and reform. Can you understand?"
Sean nodded, indicating that he understood.
In fact, Sean had such an example in his previous life.
For example, Kodak, the leader in the camera industry in the film era, invented the digital camera. However, it was too large to transform, and internal interest groups argued endlessly, and eventually fell under the impact of the digital camera wave.
There are many similar examples, ranging from Nokia and Motorola to Roma, Qing Dynasty and Europa.
These are all declines caused by being too large and difficult to transform.
But Sean also said seriously: "I understand you, but I also hope you can understand me.
Reform is necessary, it's just a matter of time. But after all, your family has made a lot of sacrifices for the peaceful reunification of the principality, so I will take special care of you."
Earl Powell sighed: "Everything is up to you. No matter what decision you make, I will agree unconditionally!"
"Very good!" Sean patted Powell on the shoulder with satisfaction: "But at the medal ceremony tomorrow, I will not say reform directly, but will say no reform for the time being..."
Sean told Earl Powell the decision made at yesterday's meeting.
Powell nodded: "I understand what to do."
"Very good!" Sean finally said: "Besides reform, there is one last thing. At tomorrow's investiture ceremony, I will appoint Lor'themar as the governor of Port Capul. Remember to prepare."
"Lor'themar, is he qualified?" Earl Powell was surprised.
"Of course... don't worry about so much and go get ready!"
"OK."
Earl Powell said goodbye to Sean and left the residence with a heavy heart.
