Chapter 254: Recruitment
In the early morning, the noisy port, looking at the people who were eating and walking quickly towards the various shops and storefronts, looking at the people who were sweating and carrying all kinds of goods back and forth in the dock hold, looking at the people who were sweeping the streets with brooms and baskets on their backs, looking at the guards who yawned and patrolled slowly with weapons in their hands, and looked at the managers who were angry and scolding, or pointing fingers and salivaing, everything was presented in this bright morningใ
Chen Haoran walked on such a street very easily and indifferently, he was full of interest to appreciate everything around him, this atmosphere of a commercial port in the Middle World came to his face, and this feeling of being stuck in historical time made people feel refreshed.
So Chen Haoran can be said to be in a good mood, humming a song and shaking the heavy money bag, and walking towards the port office.
No one on the road stared at his heavy and somewhat swollen money bag, and after guessing the value of the money bag, one and two swallowed their saliva with their eyes shining.
But no one dared to do it, one, this is the main road of the port, a team of patrols can be seen more than ten meters apart, and the shops on both sides of the street have been brushed open, and the clerks are preparing for the opening of the work, which can be described as a public eye!
Of course, more importantly, this is a fresh face, "don't attack strangers" can be said to be the admonition of this world, because no one knows what the origin of strangers is, the messenger of gods and demons, the super bull, the evil party and demons, the nobles, the big businessmen, the ordinary people, the mother, this vote may be, ordinary people only account for a small amount! That is to say, if you attack strangers, ninety percent will be finished.
Therefore, the greedy eyes in the gloom on the side of the road could only watch Chen Haoran walk by with his money bag thrown around, and they were all secretly determined to inquire about the origin of this guy and see if they could afford to provoke him. If you can't provoke it, you don't need to say it, if you can afford it, hum, it will let him know what kind of mistake it was to walk past him early in the morning with his money bag and humming a song!
Of course, Chen Haoran noticed the greedy gaze along the way, but he didn't care, not to mention the combat power he thought was okay, the two reloaded magic guns pinned to his belt were enough to deal with the big ticket.
So Chen Haoran, who kept in a good mood, looked around all the way, and bought all kinds of breakfast to try, walked to the port office building.
The port office, a department that makes money by providing services, is non-stop around the clock, because there are night ships entering the port in the middle of the night, businessmen who want to transport goods in the middle of the night, and chambers of commerce who want to sign contracts in the middle of the night.
Therefore, even if Chen Haoran came to the port office so early, there were personnel from all departments, so naturally a doorman welcomed him in.
Chen Haoran was first familiar with the way and went to register the Shuiyue number captured by his family for naturalization. Originally, this kind of ship without birth paper needs a period of survey, perhaps just a period of wait and see if anyone jumps out to dispute the ownership of the ship.
Generally speaking, no one will jump out of the dispute about the unregistered ships that dare to be certified, but in order to reduce trouble, almost all ports that dare to do this kind of certification will have a survey time like a public announcement, and the reason for the certifier is naturally to have a good survey of the ship, at least it takes time to describe the structure of the ship?
Of course, this reason is well known to everyone, so how can you be naturalized immediately like a new ship with complete documents? It's simple, you can reduce the survey time by giving Jin Cancan, and if you give enough, you can handle it on the spot.
Chen Haoran naturally understands this, and after the three gold coins were discharged, the port office did not handle it on the spot, but it also directly sent someone to the dock berth to investigate and describe, I believe that in a few hours, the certificate of successful registration will be placed in front of Chen Haoran.
After getting the clerk patting his chest and saying that he would get the certificate in three hours, Chen Haoran naturally went to the personnel recruitment office.
There is an agent here in the early morning, and the number of agents can determine whether the port is busy.
Looking at these dozens of intermediaries, Chen Haoran nodded, indicating that the business of this Keya Port is very good.
However, he didn't first look for the dozen or so intermediaries whose eyes lit up and pounced as soon as Chen Haoran greeted him, but first found the clerk of the port office.
"Excuse me, is there a list of skilled sailors? I'm going to recruit a group of sailors. Chen Haoran said casually on the big wooden table.
The clerk immediately smiled: "Okay, I don't know what you want from a sailor? What level? How many people are needed?"
"If you have a sailor's certificate, there should be quite a lot of people, I have two ships, a 100-ton Galen ship, a Ranger class battleship, and I have five assistants left with me, so I need to fill the shortage of sailors. Chen Haoran made his own request.
The clerk's eyes immediately lit up, this is a big business, and his commission is absolutely generous. So while glaring at the group of intermediaries who all swallowed their saliva when they heard this, he said earnestly: "You can rest assured, all the registered sailors of our port office are licensed, and they dare not say that they are loyal, but their business ability is absolutely guaranteed." โ
Then he took out a few thick books from under the table, and said as he introduced them: "Sir, there are only five people left with you, so you must hire a few boatswains, cooks, and craftsmen in addition to a group of sailors." This is the list of boatswain, this is the list of chefs, this is the list of craftsmen. โ
Chen Haoran touched his chin, yes, a ship needs a lot of manpower in addition to the captain, relying on the four male rabbits? It seems that there is no need to think about it, so he untied the money bag, took out a gold coin and pushed it over, and said: "I still need four lieutenants, what position is missing on the other ship, you give me some recommendations, and you can also help me get it for ordinary sailors." โ
The clerk was immediately pleasantly surprised and immediately put away the gold coins, and then expressed himself in an extremely affectionate tone: "Sir, don't worry, leave everything to me, I will help you find the best personnel in our port office!"
As he spoke, he began to introduce Chen Haoran, and Chen Haoran realized that on a ship, it is not something that an adjutant, boatswain, or sailor can handle.
In addition to the captain, a ship also has a first officer, a second officer, and a third officer, which belongs to the rank of adjutant and is responsible for various departments, and the boatswain is actually one of them. Then there are doctors, cooks, lookouts, surveyors, helmsmen, and finally sailors.
