Chapter 15 Joining the Admiralty

After Fang Lang left Lilith's house, Lilith's parents interrogated Lilith's relationship with Fang Lang in detail, and 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 said that he had taken a fancy to this young man, and asked Lilith to catch this son-in-law in his hands, which made Lilith embarrassed and eager to find a crack to get into.

Although Lilith has a good impression of Fang Lang, and the relationship between the two yesterday was one step closer than before, Lilith still feels that the two of them should understand a little bit in order 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 participate, Lilith and Fang Lang's personal relationship is still for them to make their own decisions, if they can come together, I also hope it is because of love." Don't let me affect your judgment of your feelings because I'm working for him, you know? Lilith! ”

"I understand Dad! Or do you love me the most. ”

Just such a beautiful misunderstanding made Lilith's family 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 to the company's office building, Lilith's father, Umaru Cockburn, was already waiting downstairs in the company. Fang Lang stepped forward very naturally, shook hands with him, and then opened the door and entered the office building.

This office building Fang Lang is also the first time to enter, this is a baroque architectural style of four-story building, the whole building is very particular about the materials, although Fang Lang does not know what material of stone, but it can be seen that it is definitely not a bargain. The inside and outside of the house are intricately carved sculptures, and the decoration is very ornate.

This made Fang Lang feel that his $40,000 was worth it, if it weren't for the wartime, Fang Lang believed that such a building covering an area of nearly 1,000 square meters would not be able to be sold. This building is absolutely worth more than 100 million yuan in the 21st century.

But at this time, this kind of architecture is everywhere in Italy, but few people are looking for it. Fortunately, someone in the building has obviously taken care of it, it has been cleaned up very neatly, and even the desks and chairs are all complete, which are obviously left behind, which saves Fang Lang a lot of things.

Because I made an appointment with the mayor of Naples yesterday, I will ask all the recommended people to come here for an interview at 9 o'clock this morning. All of this morning's assignments for Fang Lang and Mr. Cockburn were to interview all the personnel. Set up the shelves of the Italian branch of Globe Trading S.A. within this day and recruit enough captains and sailors for your fleet.

Soon people began to come for interviews, Fang Lang only interviewed the company's financial personnel, and the rest of the personnel were interviewed by Mr. Cockburn. The captain and first mate of the fleet and other management personnel were also interviewed by Fang Lang, and as for the other sailors, Fang Lang handed them over to the captain and first mate to recruit by themselves. So the recruitment work was completed in the morning.

When the basic structure of the personnel was completed, Fang Lang first asked Mr. Cockburn to arrange two special personnel to go to the naval warehouse to guard the warehouse and prepare to receive the goods brought by the crew. Fang Lang explained in detail to Mr. Cockburn the main business of the current global trading company. He was also asked to arrange a special person to go to the market to collect commodities that could create high value in the market and to regularly inform himself and the New York head office of the market price of the commodities by telegram, so that the company could adjust the commodities transported.

Fang Lang knew the importance of information very early, so he planned to arrange professional telegraph rooms in several of his companies and fleets to facilitate timely communication and transmission of information. Avoid being enriched by the company's people in Fang Lang's absence.

Finally, after dealing with the company's affairs on this day, Fang Lang had to go back to the barracks to report, because Colonel Attilio Parisi of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force 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 with the rank of Major General, so the supreme commander of the Navy is Colonel Attirio Parisi, and if Fang Lang wants to have a good life in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, he must deal with the relationship with the supreme commander.

Therefore, Fang Lang did not dare to give the slightest discount to the order of the colonel, and rushed to Mr. Colonel's office at nine o'clock the next morning to report.

"Report! Fang Lang, a second lieutenant of the expeditionary force, was ordered to report! Fang Lang's military salute has always been very standard, mainly due to his military training experience in the university in his previous life.

"Please come in!" The voice coming from the office was very majestic. When Fang Lang pushed the door and entered, he found two Brazilian officers sitting in the office, a middle-aged colonel with a thin body, fair skin, and hooked nose was sitting at the desk, looking at him with a majestic face, and on the sofa in the reception area next to him, a big-bellied lieutenant colonel officer with brown-red skin and obvious Brazilian characteristics was sitting looking at Fang Lang with a smile.

Fang Lang, who entered the office, just glanced at the environment of the office, then came to the colonel's desk without squinting, and saluted: "Report!" Mr. Colonel, Second Lieutenant Fang Lang was ordered to come and report. ”

"Take a break!" Colonel Attilio Parisi looked up and down the second lieutenant officer in front of him, tall, 1.8 meters tall, with black hair and black eyes, and a distinctly 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 valiant soldier like you to join the ranks of our Navy. ”

"Thank you, sir! I am also very honored to be able to join the Governor's command and serve my country! ”

"I heard Brigadier General Jackson say that you have already passed the assessment of the US military and have the ability to drive ocean-going ships, so I asked you to come here today in the hope that you can seize the time to get acquainted with your colleagues in the Navy, and we will immediately receive the transport ship from the hands of the US military and start the transportation work as soon as possible." Mr. Colonel did not be polite with Fang Lang, the second lieutenant, but went directly to the topic and asked to start work as soon as possible.

"Yes! Sir! ”

"This is Lieutenant Colonel Graham of the Logistics Department of the Expeditionary Force Command, and your ship will be mainly responsible for docking with the Lieutenant Colonel in the future, transporting the remains of my fallen soldiers and trophies back to Brazil. Is it clear! Colonel Attirio Parisi gestured to the smiling lieutenant colonel officer on the couch.

"Report to the sir, our ship will be responsible for transporting the remains of my fallen soldiers and the trophies back to Brazil, the order is clear!" After Fang Lang repeated the order loudly, he turned to Lieutenant Colonel Graham and saluted, "Hello sir! ”

Lieutenant Colonel Graham's work style is obviously much more casual, and after casually raising his hand, he said directly to the other party: "Hello, I don't know how long it will take you to set up your team, the materials we need to transport back to Brazil and the bodies of the fallen will be transported to Naples tomorrow, I hope to be able to set sail as soon as possible." ”

"Report to the sir, this time will take more than a week at the earliest, because I need to meet with my crew first, and then go to the US military to receive our ship, and we can only set off after we are familiar with the ship." Fang Lang didn't want to set off so soon! The Italian company still needs him to participate in the construction, and the little girl Lilith still needs him to tackle it.

Of course, what Fang Lang said was also the truth, and now he didn't know what kind of ability level the crew members assigned to him had. Don't wait, it's all rookies with no sailing experience!

Fortunately, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel only frowned deeply and did not say anything more.

Soon Fang Lang left Colonel Attilio Parisi's office and was led by the adjutant to a military camp. In front of a barracks, there was already a team of more than fifty people waiting in the cold wind for the arrival of the new commander.

After the adjutant read out the headquarters' appointment to Fang Lang 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, buddy is also the one who leads the troops.
