It's not the comfort of talking to himself, but that Carl can really do more ruthless than him. He once told Spicer that he would nail Russell's whole body with nails and turn him into a hedgehog.
Russell wrapped Carl in a quilt, wrapped the sheet twice, and tied a knot.
"Goodbye, oh... By the way, the money in your safe needs to be used, and it will be returned to you when you arrive in the United States."
Karl couldn't move, his face was covered with beads of sweat, and soon wet the quilt that wrapped him, and he couldn't help feeling a little desperate...
Spicer is dead, he has no help on the boat, and now he looks like a slaughtered fish.
He didn't know where Walker's courage came from. He dared to treat him like this on the boat. Isn't he afraid of being hunted down in the United States?
Afraid?In a few hours, Carl will sink to the bottom of the sea with the Titanic, afraid of a fart!
When Russell left the room, he closed the door deliberately and tied the lock with a rope so that it could not be opened from inside or outside.
When Ruth opened the safe before, he was watching and knew the password.
There are 9 US dollars and three pieces of gold in the safe, the heart of the ocean sapphire necklace, and a pair of signed art paintings of Ruth.
Russell also had doubts about the setting of the money exchange in the heavens. Fortunately, he was smart enough to find that the destination he went to every time he downloaded the dungeon was the exchange currency of the current dungeon.
For example, if he is going to Italy, no matter whether he puts gold or US dollars in the cash box, what he exchanged is Lira.
In the first two dungeons, he really didn't have time to make money and was busy fighting.You can spend tens of thousands of yuan to exchange for level 1 skills, all of which are found from corpses...
This time I went to the United States, and the coins of the heavens were exchanged for US dollars.
Russell deposited three gold bars of about 9 pounds into the cash box, in exchange for 2880 US dollars...
"What about playing?"
He frowned.
以1910年黄金和英镑的汇率来算,1磅黄金等于16盎司,1盎司等于4英镑,同等于20美金!
"The gold standard?"
This is the conversion system between gold and national currencies proposed by Isaac Newton in 1969.
At the end of 1913, five countries controlled two-thirds of the world's gold, all of which were stored in the banks of each country, and the countries that were preparing for war could only issue exchange notes, which made the banks' gold reserves very tight, which triggered a crisis. financial crisis.
When the First World War broke out in 1914, the gold standard system will gradually disappear from people's sight, and the value of gold will increase by then!
Although several countries wanted to restore the gold standard system after the war, but they learned from the past and made many small countries grow their minds... Finally, they proposed the gold bullion standard system and the gold exchange standard system.
That being the case, Russell no longer struggles, anyway, as long as the gold is not sent to the cash box in the past few years, it will be fine.
He returned to the restaurant with $[-] worth of bills.
At this time, the long table in the middle of the restaurant was already full of banknotes and gold. Russell felt a little heartbroken looking at the gold, and it was all fucking blind!
"Mr. Walker, did Carl agree?"
Ismay asked rather anxiously.
Russell smiled and said: "Of course, I had a good chat with Carl. He made it clear that he was wrong and asked me to bring his pocket money."
He put the banknotes in the money pile, turned to look at Ismay, "Mr. Ismay, is there any question?"
"Didn't Karl make me pay?"
"What is the compensation? His bodyguard killed Fisher. Even if he is justified, he can't explain it. It's too late to thank you. How can you ask for compensation?"
Ismay breathed a sigh of relief, "Huh, fortunately Karmin is reasonable, otherwise I would have to bleed again."
"Hahaha...Look at Mr. Ismay's appearance, he looks like a toothless vampire."
Ismay turned to look at the nobles, and said with a bitter face, "Do you know how much I spent this time? I counted, a total of 42 celebrities and nobles made selfless contributions, and I will pay 42 US dollars!"
Astor smoked and said, "Don't forget to give Walker money."
"Of course, I won't forget."
After returning to the restaurant, Russell did not join in the chat with Astor and the others, but waved to Tommy and asked him if he had recorded everything.
Tommy nodded and handed him the notebook.
A total of 43 celebrities and aristocrats participated in the "show off their wealth", among which Astor had the highest banknote gold worth 42 US dollars, followed by Guggenheim...
And Ismay $12.
A total of about 513 million US dollars!
This is not a small amount of money. You must know that this is 1912. Moreover, many celebrities and nobles do not carry too much banknotes. Most of them travel between Europe and the United States to discuss business. Tens of thousands of dollars are enough for expenses.
"Have some people in Lemaisen put on their hoods and prepare to take pictures."
"Ok."
Both Astor and the Guggenheim had cameras, and it ended up being the Guggenheim's camera.
After Tommy and the others put on the headgear, Astor and the others clapped and applauded with joy.They have never participated in this kind of drama performance, which is very novel to them.
With the camera in hand by the maid, under Russell's direction, Tommy and others were tied up and sat around Spicer's body.
The camera smoked, and a photo took shape.
Next, Russell directed the male servant to take pictures of Fisher from a distance, and then took pictures of the hills of banknotes and gold piled up on the long table.
give up.
Russell smiled indifferently: "Everyone, the time to show off your wealth is over. The banknotes and gold will be locked in a compartment in the restaurant. After arriving in New York, they will be inspected by the judicial department and returned to you. Guaranteed by Mr. Ismay , you won’t lose a penny, I’ll keep it in mind.”
"no problem!"
"Mr. Ismay, don't forget our compensation."
"Won't forget."
After Tommy and the others were untied, they stood beside the long table under the instructions of the boss.
At this time, Russell turned his head to stare at them and said, "You guys move all this money to the storage room."
"Yes!"
At first, Tommy was shocked to see so much money, but as the money increased, he became numb.
Because the money is not theirs, and they know well that they may not be able to earn so much money in this life.
Although Tommy and the others wanted to steal a few banknotes, they didn't dare to take any action under the warning eyes of the boss.
The storage room in the dining room is completely enclosed, without windows, and the door is also a piece of iron.
Andrews said: "All warehouses on the ship are fully enclosed to prevent fires, so they are very safe, please rest assured."
Originally, everyone was very at ease. Even if the money was lost, Ismay would compensate them. What were they afraid of?
Russell personally participated in the moving work, and Astor persuaded him to sit down for a rest but was rejected.
All the banknotes and gold were stacked on the storage table, and Russell asked Tommy and the others to place wooden barrels at the four corners of the table.
The wooden barrel is higher than the banknote gold stacked in the middle, and then covered with a tablecloth...
In this way, outsiders can only see the banknotes, but only the tablecloth supported by four wooden barrels!
"You guys go out, I'll do the finishing touches."
"Okay, boss."
Tommy and the others responded and walked out of the storage room without closing the door.
And Russell raised his head, just in time to see Astor and the others staring at him with smiles on their faces.
It seems to say again: Take one last look, and you won't see it in the future.
Russell also responded with a smile.
Immediately, he lowered his arms and touched the banknotes and gold with his fingers.
"Deposit!"
[Cashbox: 521.29 million (US dollars)]
Russell looked down at the tablecloth, and there was no sign of it falling, because the wooden barrel supported it at the four corners!
He had been planning for so long, but his purpose was never to help Ismay make the Titanic famous.
But to engage in a real big robbery!
He looted all the pocket money of the celebrities and nobles as the initial funds for his hard work in the United States.
It's just that no one will know about this robbery, because the Titanic is about to sink, and the money will sink to the bottom of the sea in the hearts of the nobles.
Besides, it's hard to say how many people they can survive.
It depends on how much kindness Russell has.
He walked out of the storage room slowly, took two big locks from Tommy, wrapped the iron chain three or four times, and pressed all the big locks.
Then he clapped his hands comfortably and turned around, walking towards the position of Astor and the others.
"Walker, what shall we do now?"
"Send a distress signal to tell nearby ships that our ship has been hijacked."
Guggenheim frowned and said, "We will arrive in New York in two days, so it's a bit early to send it now?"
"Not early, our sailing speed is very fast."
Captain Smith nodded: "Yes, at our current speed, almost no ship in the world can catch up unless we stop. My suggestion is to send a distress signal now, but the speed of the ship will not slow down, and then slow down tomorrow morning. Let them chase after it... Besides, the nearest ship is 150 nautical miles away, so if we don't slow down, it won't be able to catch up at all."
"The captain has rich sailing experience, so listen to Mr. Smith."
"agree."
Since Russell announced the plan, he is like an outsider. He doesn't need to do any details, because the celebrities and nobles will help him!
"Joseph, you go to the communication room to find Phyllis and ask him to send a distress telegram."
"Okay." Fourth officer Joseph nodded.
At this time, Russell said: "In order to avoid trouble, let my people follow, otherwise what if the telegraph operator is unwilling to cooperate with us in this ridiculous game?"
"Alright."
Astor said: "Don't hurt anyone."
Russell smiled and said, "Your worries are unnecessary. We are a security company, not real robbers."
"Hahaha, Walker, you are very similar when you play the robber."
Everyone laughed.
Russell turned his head and pointed at Thain and Laimai, "You two follow Joseph to the communication room."
"Yes!"
After they left, Russell enjoyed dinner with the celebrities.
After tossing and tossing for so long, it finally stopped.
The two corpses on the ground had been transported away by Captain Smith and placed in an unoccupied room.
Chapter 97 Career is the most important thing, doomed to sleepless, bump!
Sunday night, April 1912, 4.
The night is full of stars, and the bright moon hangs in the sky, reflected in the calm sea.
There is no wind, naturally there are no waves, and there is only the Titanic, like a giant ship, stirring the mirror-like Atlantic Ocean.
9 points.
First class restaurant.
The celebrities and aristocrats didn't regret that the cabaret didn't end, because they were actually involved in a scheme that could deceive the world.
In this plan, everyone gained benefits and fame, and the only loss was two lives.
But what does that have to do with them?
Astor felt that this absurd farce could be integrated into future noble gatherings, allowing the nobles to participate and feel the mystery and pleasure of it.
In the past, the nobles looked down on drama actors, thinking that drama was just something to have fun in their spare time, and the actors were even clowns to make them happy.
Because the original drama performers were composed of a group of slaves, the purpose was to please the slave owners and make them happy.
