95. Punish Karl, the real big robbery

At this point, Carl was lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

He saw Spicer killed, but the nobles blamed him!

Pushing open the door, Russell quietly walked in.

Karl heard the movement and turned his head to see him, and his eyes turned red instantly.

grinding teeth and shouting excitedly: "***......"

Before he could finish scolding, Russell rushed to the bed, grabbed his neck with one hand, held a nickel-plated pistol in the other, and fiercely pressed the muzzle of the gun to his chin.

Only to hear the sound of Gaba, Carl's teeth collided, and he almost bit his tongue off.

Blood suddenly poured out of his mouth, and Russell frowned and said in disgust: "You are so disgusting! ”

"Woooooooo

Russell said with a calm face: "You shouldn't mess with me repeatedly. ”

"You're not..."

Russell didn't want to hear him trash-talk, and he didn't want to talk too much to Carl.

Because now that he and Carl are in a life-and-death situation, it would be a waste of time to say too much.

Russell put away his gun, stared into Carl's eyes, and unloaded his chin with a dexterous break of his hands on his chin.

Then stuff the futon on the bed into his mouth to prevent him from humming......

Russell stood on the ground, looking at Carl's limbs, feeling a little unsafe.

He used his jiu-jitsu joint technique to break all his limbs, and Carl screamed in pain, but not loudly, because he had a futon in his mouth.

"Is it cruel? If I fall into your hands, I'm afraid you'll be even more ruthless than I am. ”

It's not that it's a self-talk comfort, but that Carl can really do more than he does, and he once told Spicer to fill Russell's bones with nails and turn him into a hedgehog.

Russell wrapped Carl in a futon and wrapped it twice with a sheet to tie a dead knot.

"Goodbye, oh... By the way, the money in your safe needs to be used, and I will return it to you when it arrives in the United States. ”

Carl couldn't move, his face was covered with beads of sweat, and he quickly wet the bedding that wrapped him, and he couldn't help but feel a little desperate......

Spicer was dead, he had no helpers on the ship, and now he looked like a fish slaughtered.

He didn't know where Walker got the courage to dare to do this to him on the ship, wasn't he afraid that he would be hunted down and killed in the United States?

Fear? 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 deliberately closed the door and tied the lock with a rope so that it could not be opened inside or outside.

When Ruth opened the safe before, he was watching from the sidelines and knew the password.

Inside the safe was $90,000 and three pieces of gold, a heart of the ocean sapphire necklace, and a signed art painting of Ruth, which he didn't take, after all, he could see it for himself every day.

Russell had also wondered about the setting of the heavens' money exchange, but fortunately, he was smart enough to find that the destination he went to every time he went to the next dungeon was the exchange coin of the current dungeon.

For example, if he goes to Italy, no matter how much gold or dollars he stuffs into the cash box, the exchange is lira.

In the first two copies, he really didn't have time to make money, and he was busy fighting all the time. You can spend tens of thousands of yuan to exchange for level 1 skills, all of which are scavenged from corpses...

This time I went to the United States, and the coins of the heavens were exchanged for US dollars.

Russell deposited three sticks of about 9 pounds of gold into a cash box for $2,880......

"What about playing?"

He frowned.

At the exchange rate of gold and pounds sterling in 1910, 1 pound of gold was equal to 16 ounces, and 1 ounce was equal to 4 pounds, which was equivalent to 20 US dollars!

"The gold standard?"

This is a system of conversion 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 was stored in their banks, while countries preparing for war could only issue exchange notes, which made the banks' gold reserves very tight, which caused an economic crisis.

At the outbreak of the First World War in 1914, the gold standard will gradually disappear from people's sight, and the value of gold will increase!

Although several countries wanted to restore the gold standard after the war, many small countries had learned from the past...... Finally, they proposed the gold bar standard and the gold exchange standard.

In this case, Russell is no longer entangled, anyway, as long as he does not receive gold into the cash box in recent years.

He returned to the restaurant with a $90,000 bill.

At this time, the long table in the middle of the restaurant was already full of banknotes and gold, and Russell was a little heartbroken when he looked at the gold, and he was all blind!

"Mr. Walker, does Carl agree?"

Yin Simei asked anxiously.

Russell laughed, "Of course, I had a good chat with Carl, he made it clear that he was wrong, and he asked me to bring his pocket money. ”

He put the banknotes in the pile of money and turned his head to look at Yin Simei, "Mr. Yin Simei, still have questions?" ”

"Didn't Carl let me pay compensation?"

"What's the loss? His bodyguards killed Fisher, he can't tell even if he is reasonable, it's too late to thank you, how can he make you compensate. ”

Yin Simei breathed a sigh of relief, "Whew, fortunately Carl is reasonable, otherwise I would have to bleed again." ”

"Hahaha... Look at Mr. Yin Simei's appearance, like a toothless vampire. ”

Yin Simei turned her head to look at the nobles, and said with a bitter face: "Do you know how much money I spent this time?" I counted, a total of 42 celebrities and aristocrats selflessly dedicated, and I will pay 420,000 US dollars! ”

Astor smoked a cigarette 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 chatter of Astor and the others, but waved Tommy and asked him if he had recorded everything.

Tommy nodded in response 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 worth of $420,000 in gold, followed by the Guggenheim......

and Yin Simei's $120,000.

A total of about 5.13 million US dollars!

This money is not small, you must know that this is 1912, and many celebrities and aristocrats do not carry too much money, most of them are running business in Europe and the United States, and tens of thousands of dollars are enough for expenses.

"Let a few people who came to Maiseen put on their hoods and prepare to take pictures."

"Okay."

Both Astor and the Guggenheim had cameras, and eventually the Guggenheim cameras were used.

After Tommy and the others put on the hood, Astor and the others all applauded and smiled. They had never participated in this kind of drama before, and it was a novelty for them.

With a male servant holding a camera, and under Russell's direction, Tommy and the others are tied up and seated around Spicer's body.

The camera smokes, and a photograph takes shape.

Next, Russell instructed the maid to photograph Fisher from a distance, and then patted the gold bills piled up on the long table.

Stop.

Russell smiled and said, "Everyone, the time to show off your wealth is over." The banknotes and gold are to be locked in a compartment in the dining room, and when they arrive in New York, they will be inspected by the judiciary and returned to you. With Mr. Yin Simei's guarantee, you will not lose a penny, I remember it here. ”

"No problem!"

"Mr. Yin Simei, don't forget our compensation."

"I won't forget."

After Tommy and the others were untied, they stood at the long table under the explanation of the boss.

At this point, 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 grew more and more, he became numb.

Because the money is not theirs, and they know that they may not be able to make so much money in this life.

Although Tommy and the others had the intention of stealing a few bills, they did not dare to make any action under the warning eyes of the boss.

The restaurant storage room is fully enclosed, with no windows and the doors are ironclad.

"All the warehouses on the ship are fully enclosed to prevent fires, so it's very safe, so please rest assured," Andrews said. ”

Originally, everyone was very at ease, even if the money was lost, there would be compensation from Yin Simei, what were you afraid of?

Russell was personally involved in the porterage, but Astor was denied to persuade him to sit down and rest.

All the banknotes and gold were stacked on the storage table, and Russell had Tommy and his men place barrels in the four corners of the table.

The barrel is higher than the banknote gold stacked in the middle, and then covered with a tablecloth......

In this way, outsiders can see the banknotes, only the tablecloth held up by four wooden barrels!

"You guys go out, I'll put the finishing touches on it."

"Okay, boss."

Tommy and the others answered, and walked out of the storage room, but the door was not closed.

And Russell raised his head, just in time to see Astor and the others looking at him with smiles on their faces.

It seems to say: take one last look, and you won't see it later.

Russell also smiled in response.

Immediately, he lowered his arms and touched the banknotes and gold with his fingers.

"Deposit!"

【Cash Drawer: 10,000 (USD)】

Russell looked down at the tablecloth, and there was no sign of its fall, as the barrel supported it at the four corners!

He has been thinking about it for so long, and his purpose has never been to help Yin Simei make the Titanic famous.

It's about a real catastrophe!

Looted all the pocket money of celebrities and aristocrats as his initial capital for working hard 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 of them will survive.

It depends on how much kindness Russell has.

He walked slowly out of the locker, took the two large locks from Tommy's hands, and wrapped them three or four times in chains, pressing them all down.

Then he clapped his hands comfortably and turned around, walking towards the position of Astor and the others.

"Walker, what are we going to do now?"

"Send a distress signal and tell nearby ships that our ship has been robbed."

Guggenheim frowned, "We're going to get to New York in two days, so it's a bit early to send it, right?" ”

"It's not early, we're sailing fast."

Captain Smith nodded, "Yes, at our current speed, there are few ships in the world that can catch up unless we stop." My advice is to send a distress signal now, but keep the boat at a reduced speed and wait until tomorrow morning to slow down and let them chase after you...... Besides, the nearest ship is 150 nautical miles, and if we don't slow down, it won't be able to catch up. ”

"The captain has a lot of seafaring experience, so listen to Mr. Smith."

"Agreed."

Ever since Russell announced the plan, he has been like an outsider, and he doesn't need to do anything in detail, because the celebrities and aristocrats will do it for him!

"Joseph, you go to the communication room and find Phyllis and ask him to send a distress telegram."

"Okay." The fourth mate, Joseph, nodded.

At this time, Russell said: "In order to avoid trouble, let my men follow, otherwise what if the telegraph operator is not willing to cooperate with us in this absurd game?" ”

"It's fine."

Astor instructed, "Don't hurt anyone. ”

Russell smiled: "Your worries are unnecessary, we are a security company, and we are not real robbers." ”

"Hahaha, Walker, you're playing the robber."

The crowd laughed.

Russell turned to Sean and Laimai, "You two follow Joseph to the communication room. ”

"Yes!"

After they left, Russell had dinner with the celebrities.

After tossing for so long, it finally stopped.

The two corpses on the ground had been transported by Captain Smith and placed in an unused room.
