Of course, the aristocracy and celebrities looked down on Yin Simei, not only because of the high ticket price, but also because he was a businessman with extremely selfish desires. There are profitable deals that don't know how to share at all, but are firmly held in their hands, and they love to brag and show off.

As long as Yin Simei is there, Astor and the others basically won't join in the fun, for no other reason, they are just too lazy to look at his boasting.

Russell looked at you, locked his eyes on him, and said: "Mr. Yin Simei, now there are so many noble gentlemen who are willing to cooperate with you and make the Titanic famous all over the world, I wonder how much money you are willing to pay to compensate you for the losses of the gentlemen?" ”

Yin Simei was stunned, "Loss? ”

"Yes, the compensation after Fisher's death, you still have to gag Karl with money, and the most important thing is that you have to pay enough money to satisfy all the noble gentlemen present, as for me? As Mr. Yin Simei said just now, 10,000 US dollars is enough. ”

Yin Simei was dumbfounded, and was stunned.

"But they didn't lose ......"

"Nope! All the celebrities and aristocrats will take out the banknotes and gold and place them in the dining room, and then ask someone with a camera to help take a few photos as the cover of the front page of the newspaper! The title is "Titanic*** Voyage, Encountering a Great Catastrophe!" 》。 ”

Yin Simei's head was dazed, and he hadn't turned around yet, but after hearing the title, he suddenly felt that there was something wrong.

"Mr. Walker, even if everyone gives out their wealth, they still have nothing to lose."

Russell frowned and shook his head: "No, what they lose is their reputation, because they were robbed and are going to be on the front page of the newspaper, if they publicize it, how much damage will it cause to them, have you ever thought about it?" ”

In an instant, everyone suddenly realized.

It turns out that we really have losses, but being hijacked is not a scandal, at most it is a famous gossip news......

And when he returned to the United States, he could still have bragging capital, such as surviving at the hands of the bandits, participating in the crew and killing the bandits.

There are pros and cons.

Astor said with a straight face: "It is indeed a great loss, Mr. Yin Simei, we must compensate for the psychological damage we have suffered." ”

"That's right, 10,000 dollars, I'm willing to help you." Gordon said.

He agreed so easily, the purpose was to show off his wealth, for example, after the newspaper would be written: Mr. Gordon's pocket money was robbed of 300,000 US dollars......

Russell smiled and said, "Mr. Yin Simei, everyone is waiting for your answer. ”

Yin Simei has already been set up, and now he can't run away from retreating, otherwise he will really have a bad reputation when he returns to New York.

He gritted his teeth and made a painful decision, "Good! I do. But I didn't have a lot of cash with me, so I waited until New York to pay, okay? ”

Astor and the others looked at Russell with a smile, they were not afraid of Yin Sme's recklessness, which would make him unable to get along in the United States.

"Absolutely."

Russell turned his head to look at the nobles and nobles, "Gentlemen, please let your servants go back to the room, take out all the money and gold, and put them on the long table in the middle of the dining room." My people will take care of the records, and when the pictures are taken, they will put your wealth in a closed compartment...... If your wealth is lost, then please ask Mr. Yin Simei for compensation. ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.

The celebrities and aristocrats at the scene had different minds and had plans for each other.

Some people think it's a great opportunity to show off and let more people know about their financial resources.

There are also people who feel that they should immediately take advantage of this opportunity to get in touch with core nobles such as Astor.

After weighing the pros and cons and having Yin Simei as a guarantee, first of all, Astor and others nodded in response.

Astor said: "Since I have Mr. Yin Simei as a guarantee, I am willing to take out the banknotes and gold." ”

"Taylor, go to my room and get all the money out of the safe." Guggenheim said, pointing to the maid.

“……”

Yin Simei was very distressed, he not only had to vouch for this activity to show off his wealth, but also paid $10,000 to each nobleman who showed his wealth as a moral damage......

They were arranging for someone to go back and get the money and gold, and Russell was not idle, he looked at Captain Smith with a smile.

"Mr. Smith, there is one more thing you need to do in order for this robbery operation to go more smoothly."

Of course, the captain will, because Russell's plan will allow him to escape from disaster and turn him into a hero who kills robbers and protects nobles and celebrities!

"Mr. Walker, please don't be polite to me, you say."

"Since it is a robbery, guns must be missing, so the ship's ammunition depot must also be looted."

"Ammunition depot? Then the guns ......"

"Of course, the guns should be in the hands of the crew, and of course the extra guns should be handed over to my people, who will wear masks and take pictures later for newspaper illustrations."

"No problem, I'll have Pittman take your staff to the ammunition depot."

Russell waved his hand and called Tommy, "Let Lemai and Pittman go to the ammunition depot, leave the crew's guns, and distribute the rest of the guns to our staff." ”

"Okay, boss."

Tommy nodded solemnly, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

The big event discussed by the boss and the aristocracy and celebrities is very likely to become the first major news of the year, and it is the kind that is popular all over the world!

Tommy specifically instructed Laimai to say a few words, and then asked Laimai and the two brothers to follow Pittman to the ammunition depot.

It wasn't long before Taylor, the Guggenheim's maid, returned to the dining room with two boxes of bills and gold.

"Tommy, you're in charge of keeping a record of the banknotes and gold provided by each gentleman, and shouting them out loud for everyone in the restaurant to hear."

"Okay."

Tommy stood at the table with the gold bills, holding a pen and taking notes.

"Mr. Guggenheim, $380,000!"

Hearing the shout, the nobles and celebrities were stunned.

I didn't expect that Guggenheim, a wolf, would prepare so much pocket money when he came out to play, and I couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Mr. Gordon, $300,000!"

Gordon smiled and said modestly, "Not as good as Mr. Guggenheim, you have more pocket money than me." ”

"It's just the money I use to make girls for fun, not pocket money." Guggenheim said politely.

"Haha," the crowd laughed.

It's no wonder that few people can talk to the Guggenheim, because he speaks so badly.

"Mr. Astor, $420,000!"

"Mr. Yin Xiduo, 260,000 US dollars!"

“……”

Russell sat at a table next to him, talking to Astor and others about how to speak to the media after arriving in the United States.

He heard Tommy's shout, and turned his head to look at the bills and gold raised high on the table, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

Nowadays, aristocrats and celebrities basically carry cash and gold when they travel, most of which are mainly pounds sterling, supplemented by US dollars and gold......

Their reluctance to keep their money in the bank was not due to the trouble of withdrawing money, but because of the first economic crisis in the United States in 1837.

Under President Jackson's reckless operation, he revoked the Second Bank of the United States, deposited the deposits of *** in the state bank, and suggested that the people also deposit their money in the state bank, and then he was miserable!

As for now? Then it is even more reluctant to believe it, because the American banking crisis of 1907 was even worse!

There is a good saying, it is better to believe in the Bank of America than to believe that the capitalists will give the homeless two cents.

"Walker, the only problem left at the moment is Carl, if he returns to the United States and doesn't talk nonsense, Mr. Yin Simei's wish can come true."

Russell turned his head and said in a deliberate daze, "Excuse me, Mr. Astor, what did you say?" I've never seen so many banknotes and gold, and the way they stack them up is so charming that I was fascinated. ”

The Guggenheim laughed, "Haha, Walker, you're very real. I remember the first time I saw so much money, it was like this. ”

"It's okay, Walker, you're going to make more money when you arrive in the U.S. with your abilities."

Russell said, "I hope so, Mr. Astor said Carl? ”

"Yes, Carl is a nuisance, if he debunks our lies, then ......"

"Don't worry about him, guys. I will personally lobby, it was his fault in the first place, why should we pay for it? Besides, he only has one mouth, and we have more than 40 mouths here, who will those judicial media listen to? ”

After everyone suddenly looked at each other, they burst into laughter.

"That's right, with our identity and right to speak, how can Carl talk nonsense."

"Unless you want his family, there are no friends in the United States, and enemies on all sides."

Astor smoked a cigarette and said, "After we become insiders, we don't see the problem clearly. ”

"Gentlemen, forgive me for not being with you. After you reminded me, it's time for me to meet Karl, or he'll be in trouble if he holds a grudge against me. ”

Guggenheim said, "Walker, you're merciful. If Carl is in trouble with you in the United States, you can ask me for help. ”

“……”

Astor and others have expressed their positions.

Outside the restaurant.

Laimai and Sain stood on either side, kicking guns in their arms, looking energetic.

"Boss!"

Russell looked at the two and nodded, patting Sean on the shoulder, "Good job." ”

"I, I should! Boss. ”

Sein's face was red with excitement, he had only seen the boss pat Tommy on the shoulder, which made others very envious, which indicated that Tommy had been recognized by the boss, and now he was treated this way.

"Laimai, you're doing a good job."

Laimai was a little excited, but he didn't see the boss filming him, and he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

"Did you get all the guns in the ammunition depot except for the crew's guns?"

"Yes, it's all here!"

Laimai took out the package from the back corner, opened it and handed it to Russell.

Russell glanced at it and took out the nickel-plated pearl white Colt 911 from inside, which was a prop that could be stored in the space, but it could not be lost.

"How many more guns?"

Laimai said, "There are nine guns left. ”

"Give them to the brothers, and wait for me to come back."

"Yes!"

Deluxe First Class.

Astor's nurse and maid had long since left, and only Astor was currently in the room to look after Carl.

Russell pushed the door in, and the startled Yas got up suddenly, glared angrily at the axe, and immediately put down the axe when he saw that it was the boss.

"Boss, I... Thought it was..."

Russell waved his hand: "You are doing a good job, you must always be vigilant in this business." ”

"Okay."

"How's Carl?"

"The nurse bandaged him, and his life was not in danger, but his movement was affected, and he is currently lying in the house."

Russell strode towards the bedroom, but stopped halfway through and turned to look at Asdam.

"Ashdam, go back to the dining room and cooperate with Tommy to protect the safety of the nobles, there is no need to guard here."

He was stunned when he heard this, and nodded: "Okay, boss!" ”
