Save the Bachelor of Heaven
Chapter 4243 4245 [On board]
Olav and Sven were stunned to see this scene, and their regret was beyond words.
At that time, being able to go to the United States was a sign of getting rich.
Just like in the early years of reform and opening up, many Chinese people went abroad, even at the cost of giving up their families and jobs.
They gambled on two tickets for the Titanic, which was equivalent to gambling on their own future.
Olaf could not accept this fate, and knocked Sven to the ground with a punch in frustration.
The two then wrestled together.
"We are going to the United States, we are going to make a fortune!" Fabrizio still shouted excitedly.
"No, kid, it's the Titanic going to the United States." The bar owner pointed to the clock and said, "It will leave in five minutes!"
"Damn it!" Fabrizio was shocked.
Xiang Nan quickly put away the chips on the table, and then pulled Fabrizio to rush to the Titanic.
They ran all the way, through the crowd of people seeing them off, through the piled goods, and finally came to the gangway at the stern.
They were third-class passengers, located on G deck. At this time, the Titanic was about to set sail, and the gangway began to be retracted.
"Wait, wait, we are passengers~" Xiang Nan shouted, handing the ticket to the ticket inspector.
The ticket inspector looked at the two suspiciously, "Have you done a health check?"
At that time, in order to avoid the spread of diseases, third-class passengers had to undergo a health check before boarding the cruise ship, fearing that there were any lice, fleas, and infectious diseases, so as not to infect the upper class on the cruise ship.
It is worth mentioning that the pet dogs of first-class passengers do not need to undergo a health check.
"Of course, we don't have lice on us, we are all authentic Americans." Xiang Nan explained quickly.
Fabrizio closed his mouth wisely.
His English still has a strong Italian accent, which can be heard as soon as he opens his mouth.
The ticket inspector heard Xiang Nan's authentic American accent, nodded immediately, and gave up the hatch, "Okay, get on board."
"Thank you." Xiang Nan jumped onto the Titanic in one step, and Fabrizio followed closely.
…
After boarding the ship, the two rushed all the way to the deck of the third-class cabin.
There were countless passengers on the deck, waving to the people on the dock.
The people on the dock also waved frequently, saying goodbye to their relatives and friends.
"Goodbye, bye!" Xiang Nan also waved to them.
"Are there people you know here?" Fabrizio asked in confusion.
He knew that Xiang Nan was a wanderer, with no relatives or friends, and he had only met him recently.
"Of course not, but what does it matter." Xiang Nan smiled.
In such an atmosphere, it is difficult not to wave goodbye.
"That's true." Fabrizio smiled immediately, and then waved his hands to everyone like Xiang Nan, "Goodbye, I love you, I won't forget you."
At the same time, the port staff also untied the ropes of the Titanic.
With a loud whistle, the Titanic was towed away from the dock by several tugboats, and then the propeller slowly started, and the big ship also slowly accelerated and sailed away from the port.
…
People kept waving goodbye until the ship was far away from the dock, and only a waterline remained between the sky and the earth. Only then did everyone leave the deck reluctantly and return to their cabins.
Xiang Nan and Fabrizio also came to their room, and saw that the room was for four people, with an area of about eight square meters, and there were two bunk beds on the left and right. There was a small table and running water.
In fact, although they lived in the third class cabin, it was a long way behind the first and second class cabins. But on the passenger ships of the same period, it was completely the specifications of the first class cabin, so it was not too bad.
Therefore, the third class cabin ticket of the Titanic also cost 7.5 pounds, and at that time one pound could be exchanged for seven grams of gold. So even a third class cabin ticket was worth one or two taels of gold, which was really not cheap.
Of course, the price of the first class cabin ticket was even more expensive, and the most expensive one reached 870 pounds, equivalent to 12 catties and 7 taels of gold.
At this time, there were already two men in the room.
"Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Jack, Jack Dawson, and this is my friend Fabrizio. I'm glad to see you." Xiang Nan greeted the two with a smile, and then put down his luggage.
Fabrizio climbed up to the upper bunk directly.
The two men looked at Xiang Nan and Fabrizio with confusion, "Where are Sven and Olaf?"
They were from the same hometown as Sven and Olaf, and agreed to go to the United States to make a fortune together, so they bought tickets for the same room.
Unexpectedly, Xiang Nan and Fabrizio came in the end, which was really strange.
...
Xiang Nan ignored them and stuffed the money he won, about 20 US dollars, into Fabrizio's pocket, "I'm going to the deck to smoke a cigarette~"
He brought a whole ton of gold on this mission, worth about 140,000 pounds, 670,000 US dollars.
At that time, this was already a huge sum of money.
The middle class in the UK only needs an annual income of 100 pounds to maintain a family of five; the wealthy class only needs an annual income of 1,000 pounds to maintain a wealthy family of five.
In the United States, a Ford car costs only 700 US dollars, a washing machine costs only 80 US dollars, and a vacuum cleaner costs only 20 US dollars. A two-story villa in downtown New York costs only 6,000 US dollars...
Therefore, $670,000 is enough for Xiang Nan to live a very rich life. Moreover, he is not bad at making money at all. Even if he starts with nothing, he can quickly turn things around.
So he doesn't have to worry about money at all, and he gives all the money he earned from playing cards to Fabrizio.
Fabrizio didn't take it seriously, thinking that Xiang Nan just kept the money with him, so he took the money.
...
Xiang Nan returned to the deck, looking at the sea while thinking about things.
For him, Jack's task is not difficult to complete.
The biggest obstacles for Jack and Rose are the iceberg that is about to hit and Rose's engagement.
And both of these things are not difficult to solve.
The Great Shift of the Universe by Tiedan Shenhou can directly move a small mountain, or even use a palace to hit people. Xiang Nan's skills are not inferior to him, and it is easy for him to move an iceberg.
Besides, he has magic.
Moreover, to prevent the Titanic from hitting the iceberg, it is not necessary to move the iceberg away.
In fact, if the ship had just slowed down a bit, it could have missed the iceberg.
Or if the Titanic had just hit the iceberg head-on, the entire ship would have been prevented from sinking.
Because the Titanic had made an evasive move, the side of the ship collided with the iceberg and broke, causing a large amount of water to enter the bottom sealed compartment.
Otherwise, as long as three-fifths of the sealed compartments were intact, the ship would not have sunk.
Even if the lookout had a telescope in his hand and could see the iceberg in advance, he could have slowed down in time to avoid it.
But the telescope was locked in the cabinet at the time, and the second mate who kept the key was not on the ship, so when the lookout found the iceberg, it was too late to slow down...
All kinds of accidents led to the sinking of the Titanic.
And if only one thing was changed, this tragedy could have been avoided.
