Although Dorothea was promised to take her to Niagara Falls, there were a lot of necessary preparations to go. First of all, there are preparations for the establishment of the Atlantic Communications Company, and although the general plan has been formulated, a lot of coordination work must be done in order to carry it out. Scrooge originally thought that after doing these things, two days should be about the same, and then he would go out for more than half a month with Rothea, and when he came back, he would almost be able to officially start this kind of operation.

However, some of the coordination things were more complicated than Scrooge had originally anticipated, and as a result, it took an extra day for Scrooge to finish the task at hand, and then, he sent a telegram to Carroll, and took Dorothea and a group of bodyguards on the train to Niagara.

"He's going to São Paulo to check on the construction of the railway? That seems pretty normal at the moment, right? Do you need to run over in person? …… Well, and to explore mineral resources in the border areas of the United States and Canada? It's just an excuse, right? Well, he must have taken Dorothea on a trip, most likely to Niagara to see the falls. Hmph, Carol, this brother of yours, when we got married, she didn't even let us spend our honeymoon, so she used us as livestock, and now it's her turn, and before she got married, she quietly ran to the honeymoon! And then he threw a whole bunch of things at us. Well, Carol, you promised me to take me to see the Great Falls, right? I haven't seen a waterfall like yet, have I? By the way, not long ago, he stayed in the south for several months, saying that there was a big deal, but now it doesn't look like a big deal, just get some land use rights, but those lands don't produce anything. Well, it seems that your brother and Dorothea have known each other for a long time? Dorothea was 12 years old when they met. Well, your brother is really a caring person. He didn't go to the south specifically for Dorothea, right? With the telegram Scrooge had sent back, Catherine couldn't help but complain when she saw that there was no one around but her husband Carol.

Carol walked over, looked at the telegram, then smiled, and said to his wife, "Actually, Scrooge is quite fair. You see, before we got married, didn't we take advantage of the free time to run business and play all over Europe? Well, we even took a trip to Mont Blanc - although we didn't dare to climb it. And Scrooge himself used himself as an animal. Truth be told, who has more work than Scrooge? Moreover, Scrooge also brought a shortwave radio with him on this trip. As for the trading in the South, you don't believe Scrooge, but you can still believe his mind to do business? Guarantee only earned. As for Scrooge and Dorothea, when will they get better, it's none of our business, is it? ”

"Hmph, I knew you would be on your brother's side." Catherine said, "Actually, I know that you have a point, but I just feel a little unbalanced. Well, one of my handkerchiefs I married a rich tyrant and went to enjoy happiness, how do they know...... If you want to enjoy life, you can only look at the generation of Dana and Donald. ”

"Yes, for the sake of the children!" Carol shook Catherine's hand.

……

"This is the Great Waterfall! It's spectacular! Look, Scrooge, there's a rainbow there! Dorothea cried out in surprise, shaking Scrooge's arm incessantly.

"yes, it's spectacular." "But the Canadian Falls over there are a little bit bigger." After a while, we took a boat from downstream, and on the Canadian side, we could see the whole waterfall. We can even drive the boat all the way down to the bottom of the waterfall. ”

"Go down to the bottom of the waterfall?" Dorothea asked in surprise, "That won't be directly ...... by water."

"Of course, it's not really going down, but it's driving very close, so close that the mist from the waterfall can be used for bathing." Scrooge said.

Underneath Niagana Falls, there is a merchant named Bildt who bought a steamboat to provide this service to tourists. Now, Scrooge has already had the boat chartered. Today, exclusively for him and Dorothea.

"Alright, the ship is already waiting below, let's get off." Scrooge said.

"Well, let's go down together." Dorothea said.

Walking slowly down the gravel path, a small pier appeared in front of them. Directly across the path is a wrought iron fence and a large, cheesy iron gate painted with gold paint that reads "Closed for today". But the small door next to it was open, and two Blackwater guards were standing on either side. A wooden, painted green waiting room, is usually full of passengers waiting for the ship at this time. But now only a few Blackwater guards are left there. And the steamer was parked aside, soot was rising from the high chimney, and it was clear that the ship had not been extinguished, waiting for Scrooge and Dorothea here. Like the iron gate, the boat was also extremely vulgarly decorated, the hull was painted in boastful red, and gold paint was painted in many places, especially the two paddle wheels, which were painted gold throughout, but a lot of gold paint had peeled off, revealing a black primer.

"Hehe," Scrooge laughed, "a good boat, he just made him look like this, and at first glance he knew that he was a thug." ”

"You're a tyrant yourself, and you still laugh at others like this." Dorothea said, "But the boat is really ruined by the paint." You Beiyan just don't have taste! ”

"Dorothea, you're going to marry me soon, and you're going to become a North Yankee woman soon." Scrooge said with a smile.

"Who is going to marry you, beauty won't kill you!" Dorothea gave him a coquettish look.

At this time, one of the guards came up and said to Scrooge, "Mr. MacDonald, the ship is ready, will you rest before you go out, or will you go out right away?" ”

Scrooge glanced at Dorothea, and when he saw the sparkle in her eyes, he smiled and said, "Come out at once." ”

The two men got on board and sat down on the foredeck, where parasols, coffee tables, and two wicker chairs were already set up. The waiter immediately came up and poured tea for Scrooge and Dorothea, and laid out the refreshments. At this time, the steamboat, called "Girl in the Mist", sounded its whistle, and the cheesy paddle wheel began to slowly turn, turning the clear river and raising snow-white waves, and then the boat slowly left the trestle and slowly sailed along the turquoise Colorado River, which was like a large transparent jade, towards the waterfall upstream.

The first thing that caught their eyes was the American Falls, which was leaning on the American side.

"It's spectacular!" Dorothea got up and walked to the bow of the boat, and Scrooge followed behind her.

"It's even more spectacular over there." Scrooge said.

The boats are getting closer to the waterfall, and the roar of the waterfall is getting louder and louder. Dorothea said something to Scrooge again, but Scrooge couldn't hear it at all.

"What did you say?" Scrooge shouted.

"I said could you get any closer?" Dorothea shouted too.

The boat did get a little closer, and by this time they needed to hold their heads high and look up at the waterfall. The waterfall looks like it's falling straight over their heads. At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and a huge waterfall swayed, and a mist drifted over, enveloping the entire ship inside.

"Ahh Dorothea exclaimed, "I'm all wet, what should I do?" ”

"What did you say?" Scrooge deliberately pretended not to hear, it was summer, and it would be fine to get a little water, and it would be fun to take the opportunity to tease Dorothea.

"I said my clothes were wet!" Dorothea shouted.

At this time, the boat leaned in the direction of the waterfall again, and the waves of the waterfall began to make the boat shake. At this time, it is not the water mist, but the water droplets that fall from the waterfall like a torrential rain.

"Ahh Dorothea exclaimed, threw herself into Scrooge's arms, and was drenched in soup with Scrooge.

At this time, the boat began to gradually turn away from this section of the waterfall.

"There are changing rooms on board, and the clothes are already ready." "And there's more than one set," Scrooge said, "because after a while you'll get to Saddle Falls, you'll get drenched in soup." ”

……

After a merry day in Niagara, Scrooge and Dorothea returned to the hotel in the evening. At this time, an assistant handed a telegram to Scrooge.

"Mr. MacDonald, your telegram."

"Oh." Scrooge took the telegram and was about to open it to look at it, only to see Dorothea staring at it with wide eyes.

"There won't be any big deals, and I guarantee that we won't be able to delay our trip." Scrooge smiled at Dorothea.

Then he turned on the telegram. The content is simple: the Chinese ship has arrived in San Francisco.

"What's wrong?" Dorothea asked.

"It's just expected." Scrooge said indifferently.

Central Pacific Railroad has been the same as Union Pacific Railroad, mainly employing Irish workers, the main reason is, of course, that Irish fathers don't love grandpa and no one cares, and it's okay to use it if you die. However, first, the Central Pacific Company's railroad had to cross the high Rocky Mountains, which was very difficult to undertake, and second, in the name of prioritizing the needs of the troops, Scrooge restricted the sale of the Bolus, which made the efficiency of the Irish workers under the Central Pacific Railroad Company far less efficient than the Irish workers of the Union Pacific Railroad Company. So the great philanthropist Stanford still came up with a killer idea, as it did in the original history: the introduction of more one-time Chinese workers.
