At pier 54, there were many onlookers, some of whom were family members of nobles and celebrities, and a few who were in power.

The reason Russell's reluctance to disembark with Astor and the others was because of these people in power.

At present, he does not want to make premature contact with those in power, because there is a high probability that the contact will not be taken seriously, but will only add to the mistakes.

When Astor and the others often mention Russell Walker's name in front of them, they will make a better impression when they meet again.

They are different from the Asters, they are more realistic and pursue the principle of putting interests first.

So to treat different groups of people, Russell also has different tricks and countermeasures.

Ignoring the condolences and interviews of the media and onlookers, he left with Ruth and Mrs. Brown, as well as the two maids.

As soon as I got out of the pier, there were orange taxis waiting to solicit customers.

Russell waved two taxis and headed for The Peninsula Hotel in Manhattan.

Looking at the buildings on both sides, I suddenly feel like I have returned to the 80s of the 21st century, people are walking on the side of the street in suits and top hats, cars are roaring, and high-rise buildings are standing......

But the air here is not fresh, and the smell of gasoline and industrial waste is not very pungent, but it smells unpleasant.

Even Mrs. Brown is lamenting that not being back in New York for two years has changed so much.

At this time, the Flatiron Building, a landmark building in New York, had been built for nine years, and it was across the street from Madison Square.

At the same time, after more than 260 years of rule, the great powers in the East collapsed and divided themselves......

New York's population has now reached one million, laying the foundation for the future metropolis.

However, it is not the world's first metropolis with a population of one million, because the country of the East has reached a million in Chang'an during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty!

Originally built in 1905, the 23-storey Peninsula Hotel is a local landmark.

It is located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and 55th Street in the heart of Manhattan, and is also within walking distance of Broadway.

When she got out of the car, a doorman opened the door, and Mrs. Brown did not forget Russell's warning and gave the doorman a tip of 20 cents.

She booked two large suites at the Peninsula Hotel, and because she was in such a hurry to escape, she didn't carry much cash with her, and she only had more than $4,000 on her.

But it's enough to open two rooms here for two weeks.

"Mr. Walker, I have to go home tomorrow, and I will give you a half-month's deposit at the Peninsula Hotel."

"No, I'm only going to stay here for three or four days, and then I'm going to register a company."

"Need help?"

Russell asked, "Can you help me register my company?" ”

"Of course."

"Thank you so much, I just have something else to do."

Mrs. Brown said, "Don't be polite to me, Mr. Walker, you saved my life. ”

"Don't talk about it all the time, I'm the security advisor you hired, and that's my job."

Mrs. Brown shook her head: "No, you know, how did you get on board, I think those three maids will be grateful to you if they know that the Titanic sank." ”

"Haha... It's good that they don't complain about me. ”

Mrs. Brown smiled and said, "When I get home tomorrow, I will send someone to help you register your company." ”

Registering a company at this time is very cumbersome, requiring a variety of documents and materials as well as proof of identity, which Russell does not have, and it is impossible to register successfully with one mouth.

It was much easier to have Mrs. Brown do the work for you.

Immediately, they went back to their rooms to rest.

The decoration of the Peninsula Hotel is very good, quite French aristocratic style, just like the aesthetics of the interior decoration of the Titanic, which is full of classical beauty......

"Mr. Walker, do you take a shower? I'll give you water. ”

Russell sat on the sofa and crossed his legs and said, "How can I let the noble lady serve me." ”

"Don't tease me, I'm not a noble lady anymore, and I'm not as weak as you think."

"I don't know who lay on top of me and cried bitterly, my snot rubbed my body, and I was blind with a good suit."

"Yikes! Mr. Walker, please don't say it, it's really hard to talk about. ”

Suddenly, Russell asked with a flat face, "Are you in a much better mood?" ”

Ruth's face changed, her body froze and nodded slowly: "Yes, I'm much better." You don't have to worry about me, Mr. Walker, because this disaster has left me with no time to reflect on the pain of losing a loved one. ”

"My mother's departure seems to have been sad only at the time, and I didn't feel it when I woke up, Mr. Walker, am I very impersonal and selfish?"

Russell got up and walked over to hug her into his arms, stroked the back of her head and said: "People are selfish, if you are not selfish, you will be bullied, if you are selfish, you will not give others a chance to be angry with you." ”

Ruth nodded as if she didn't understand.

"I, I seem to understand something, but I don't fully understand."

Syllable!

Russell raised his slap and slapped her round buttocks.

"Then go and release the water, I'll let you understand later!"

"Yes, yes!"

Ruth shuddered and immediately ran to the bathroom to fill the bathtub with water.

Russell, on the other hand, stood in front of the window smoking a cigarette and looked down on the Manhattan neighborhood.

There are four missions in the "Titanic" dungeon, of which two tasks have been completed: "Boarding the Titanic" and "Surviving the Disaster".

The remaining missions are to "go to New York for the Blood Blade Enemy" and "live well with Ruth".

"Sean Thompson, who is ostensibly the owner of the Taxidermy Museum, is actually the leader of the Irish Gang......"

Russell's style of doing things has always been vigorous and resolute, and he does not like to procrastinate.

Wooing aristocratic celebrities to act as courtesans on the Titanic, and various layouts are purely helpless.

Therefore, he has to prepare for the arrival of New York, and befriending celebrities and aristocrats will make him start faster, so that he will not hit the copper wall with his white body, and he will not be blinded by both eyes.

Moreover, war will break out in two more years, and the United States is at the bottom of the world's second-rate in terms of overall strength, owing more than $8 billion in national debt.

However, after the end of World War I, countries around the world owed tens of billions of dollars to the United States, and directly changed from a debtor country to a creditor country.

The strategy of the United States in World War I and World War II is very similar, one word "Gou"!

The United States entered the war almost after the end of World War I, and the same was true of World War II.

Without further ado, let's talk about the bathroom.

First there was laughter, then a piercing scream.

"Are you alright? Do you want to see a doctor. ”

Ruth accidentally fell to the floor while pouring water, shivering in pain.

shook his head again and again: "Mr. Walker, I'm fine, I can still hold on." ”

"I'll ask Molly's maid to buy some clothes later, you see it's all wet."

"Okay!"

After several days at sea, both of them were a little tired, so they hugged each other and fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Without Russell to speak, Molly had already asked the maid to buy a change of clothes, all of which were handmade high-end clothes, but they didn't have the reputation of French suits.

Ruth was bedridden, frightened by Russell's raised slap, and hurriedly begged for mercy.

During the meal, Russell placed the banknotes on the table.

"I'm going out on errands later, you can go shopping with Molly, I promised her to give her back a fancy suit, because the suit I wore on the boat was a gift from Molly to her son, you know?"

Ruth nodded timidly and whispered, "Got it." ”

"You're going to have to learn to socialize, you know?"

"Yes, Mr. Walker, I do! Look at my performance, okay? ”

Ruth's expression was just a little scared because she was almost beaten as soon as she got up......

"Get this done and give you some rewards in the evening."

Ruth winked at Bright Boy and asked, "What reward?" ”

"How's the whip?"

"Ahh It's too expensive, I can't take it. ”

--

Before the Carpathia arrived in New York, Russell brought Tommy some money and told him that after he disembarked, he would immediately settle the family roll and the carpenter, and help them arrange food and lodging.

Then let Tommy come to the Peninsula at 3 p.m. and wait downstairs.

At the moment, Tommy and Sain are sipping cigarettes next to the two trees downstairs at the Peninsula Hotel, looking up at the hotel gate from time to time.

After the disaster, Tommy and the others became more calm, and their trust and dependence on the boss were almost full.

Because, it is clear to all that they could not have survived the disaster without their boss.

Only the nobles and celebrities survived, and the chaotic scene still appeared in the minds of Tommy and the others at that time, and every time they thought about it, they felt thrilling......

If they didn't have guns in their hands and weren't subordinates of the boss, then they would have sunk in the Atlantic Ocean with the Titanic.

The fate of their own involvement may be even worse, perhaps they will be drowned in the third-class cabin......

This joy for the rest of their lives after the catastrophe made them deeply remember every word of their boss with gratitude.

If it's a pinch, they can die for their boss!

"The boss is here."

Tommy shouted.

Immediately, the two threw away the cigarette butts together and walked towards the boss.

"Boss!"

The two bowed in greeting.

Russell frowned, "Don't do this, we are a regular company, not a gang." ”

"Okay... The owner, our family and carpenter are all arranged, you can rest assured. ”

Russell looked at their clothes and said, "Why didn't you change your clothes?" ”

"No, not in time."

"Now go buy a set and put it on. I'll give you half an hour, and I'll wait for you in the café next door. ”

"Boss, don't ......"

Sain was about to say no, but Tommy grabbed his sleeve to stop him.

"Okay, we'll be back soon."

The two of them hurried away and went to the mall to buy clothes.

On the way, Sein explained, "Why? ”

"The United States used to be a colony, and most people came from Europe, think about European farmers, what do they care about the most?"

"Face."

"Yes."

"The boss wants to save face?"

Tommy frowned, "You got your head caught in the head by a donkey?" The boss wants to take us to run errands, the boss opposite wants face, and if you go to a restaurant to eat in a suit and leather shoes, the waiter will have a good attitude towards you. If you're dressed in tatters, the waiter will kick you out, you know? ”

"Understand."

"Let's go, no wonder the boss asked us to change our clothes, and we could smell the rancid smell on our bodies in the wind."

"The smell of seawater."

The two acted quickly, and after coming to the affordable shopping mall, they fell in love with two suits.

asked about the price as long as three dollars, and they didn't negotiate the price, so they asked the shopping guide to find the right size and changed it on the spot.

The shopping guide was stunned when he saw them, he had never seen such a customer.

After paying, the two of them hurried back.

It just so happened that Russell had just finished his coffee and was smoking outside.

"Yes, very spirited."

Tommy smiled and said, "Boss, two suits cost six dollars." ”

"You're not an accountant, don't report this kind of thing to me, understand?"

"Understood!"

Russell said suddenly: "You follow me to do things, as long as you abide by two rules, one is not to gamble, and the other is not to smoke." ”

"Boss, we won't."

Russell looked at the tall building in front of him and said:

"New York is a purgatory, the big people on top drink coffee, appreciate the people at the bottom who contribute to their careers, and restrain the people at the bottom with the temptation of profit desires, so the people at the bottom must stick to the bottom line, so as not to become a mechanical puppet for the big people to make money!"

Tommy suddenly brightened up and nodded heavily: "Boss, I must keep it in mind!" ”

"Get a car, go to the taxidermy."

"Yes!"
