There was a terrifying laughter echoing in the restaurant, and the two tables of nobles next to him looked at them, and when they saw that they were two old men, they turned their heads with some fear as if they hadn't heard it.

Russell's left side is a silver-haired, white-bearded rich old man, and on his right is a tall middle-aged man with black hair and oily head.

When the laughter ended, the middle-aged man stretched out his hand and introduced, "I like you, young man!" I am John Jacob Astor IV. ”

The silver-haired old man continued: "Isidor Strauss." ”

Russell raised his hand to shake hands with the two and said, "I have heard about the two of you, but I didn't expect to meet you on the Titanic, and I am very happy to know you." I'm Russell Walker! ”

Astor was stunned when he heard this, leaning over and asking: "The Walker family on Wall Street in the United States?" ”

Russell smiled and shook his head: "No, it's the Walker family in London, England." ”

In the movie, Astor is fooled by Jack, the founder of the St. Regis Hotel, a real estate man, inventor and novelist, and the richest man on the Titanic!

He divorced his ex-wife two years ago, married his 19-year-old wife Madeleine this year, and ended his six-month-long honeymoon trip in North Africa because Madeleine was pregnant and she asked to return to the United States to have a baby.

To be on the safe side, Astor brought a man and a woman, two servants, and a nurse.

They also boarded the ship in Cherbourg, France, where there were two ferries, one for Russell and Mrs. Brown, and one for Astor and Isido, among others.

In the movie, Ruth tells Jack that it was a scandal that he broke his shoes and abandoned his wife and children.

In fact, it is not right, Astor and his ex-wife divorced until they met Madeleine, and they are in free love.

Although Astor is 47 years old and his sons are a year older than his wife, what does it matter?

When the Titanic sank, he very gentlemanly sent his wife, maid, nurse to the lifeboat, and then asked the crew if they could go up, and the crew replied that they needed to wait for all the women and children to get on the boat before it was the man's turn.

In the end, he and the maid were smoking on the deck and were crushed to death by the collapsed 13-meter chimney.

Astor heard Russell's reply and said with a smile: "Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany is the property of the Walker family, are your ancestors German?" ”

Russell said bluntly: "No, I am from London, my father was an explorer, but he was killed during the expedition, I inherited his will, successfully challenged many alpine cliffs in two years, and is now a safety consultant." ”

Isidor sighed: "Oh, so unlucky..."

"So who do you provide security services for?"

"Mrs. Brown."

"I know her, she's a very capable and kind woman."

Russell smiled and said, "Thank you for complimenting my boss, she must be very happy to hear it, because she has been discriminated against by the nobility since she got on the ship." ”

"Aristocrats? Hehe, Mr. Walker doesn't look like aristocrats to us. ”

Russell watched as they lit cigarettes, then handed them the cigarette case and kerosene lighter.

"The two lords look more like nouveau riche!"

"Haha......"

This kind of remark made Isidor and Astor laugh wildly, and they were not offended.

Their personality is like this, in the vernacular, they are old and gentle, otherwise Astor would not have found a 19-year-old wife to marry.

Isidor is a charity old man who loves to joke and is very kind and has a bottom line.

He is the founder of Macy's in the United States, and he and his wife Ida Strauss have just finished a trip in France and boarded the Titanic on a ferry boat with Aster.

Isidor and Ida were very affectionate, and after the shipwreck, in order not to be separated, they refused to take the lifeboat and returned directly to the cabin to hug each other and were submerged by the sea.

At this time, the waiter brought the food and stood by and waited.

Russell held his knife and fork in his hand and said to the two, "Don't you mind, right?" ”

"Please enjoy it yourself, we are too old to eat at night, so we can only hide in a quiet restaurant to pass the time."

Astor is not serious, and his speech is adulterated with meat and vegetables.

"Young people should eat more while their health is good, and they can't eat when they are old." The same goes for Isido.

Russell smiled and said, "If it seems very rude to eat all you can eat under the eyelids of the two, why don't I accompany you to go hungry?" ”

"No, my wife has just been pregnant, which means that I will not be hungry, and naturally I will not be greedy."

"Oh, so you two are hinting at me." Isidore pouted.

"Haha..."

They watched Russell eat and had some appetite, so they tipped the waiter $30 and asked him to prepare some dessert and coffee.

The other tables in the restaurant have been removed, and only three people remain.

After finishing the meal, the three of them lit a cigarette at the same time.

Astor exhaled smoke, "The most painful thing about my wife's pregnancy is me, and the taste of not smoking is really uncomfortable." ”

"Ida gave all my cigars to a relative......"

Astor turned his head to look at Russell and asked, "Mr. Walker, are you ready to settle in the United States?" ”

"Yes, I'm going to set up a security company, and I'm already getting ready."

"Oh! Just do what you say is the character of young people today. Isidore said.

"Very good."

Because it was too late, the three of them went back to their rooms to rest after smoking and chatting for a while.

Before leaving, Astor and Isidor asked him to have lunch tomorrow, and Russell of course agreed, which was one of the reasons for him to be born temporarily after meeting the two.

Russell came to the deck and looked at the starry sky in the dark night, in a very good mood.

Just as he turned around, an old white-bearded man in a crew's uniform stood at the top of the stairs looking at him.

"Captain Smith."

"Mr. Walker, has the noise of the third class affected your rest?"

This was not the first time the two had met, Russell was Mrs. Brown's personal bodyguard and was to carry a gun on board, and Captain Smith personally registered his information.

"Not really, it's just boring to wander around."

"I've heard from the crew that Mr. Walker has been so dedicated to walking around the entire ship since he boarded the ship," Smith asked. ”

"As a security advisor, it's all my job, does Captain Smith have any doubts?"

"No, tomorrow the Titanic arrives in Queenston, Ireland, and there happens to be first-class passengers disembarking, and Mrs. Brown will give you an upgrade."

"Okay, Captain, rest early, oh...... Mr. Captain, I saw that the observer hand of the lookout was not equipped with a telescope, is this an oversight of the White Star Shipping Company? ”

Captain Smith was stunned and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Walker, you are very professional. ”

"You're welcome."

"If you don't like it, can you please go to my room and rest? As a token of gratitude. ”

"Don't bother, Captain Smith can pay me to take a Turkish bath if he wants to thank him."

The hammam is a premium version of the steam, which is much more gorgeous than a regular bathing center, but it costs separately.

"No problem!"

Since you have boarded the Titanic, you should enjoy it, otherwise there will be no such store in this village.

Edward Smith was a seasoned seafarer, having captained three ships and had experienced many dangers at sea, all of which he had saved.

Also known as Millionaire Captain and Captain Safety, he boasted a few years ago that he had never had a collision with the captain of the White Star Line for so many years, but the good times were short-lived......

White Star Shipping took him very seriously, so he was paid a generous salary of £1,250 and a collision-free bonus of £200, the highest salary of any officer. (equivalent to £141,000 in reality)

Smith personally led Russell to the bathroom, and the waiter was so respectful that he didn't even dare to ask for the tip that Russell handed out.

The Turkish bath is really good, the scenery is beautiful and pleasant, and it makes you feel good.
