[Titanic] Harbor
Chapter 16
That's why Karl didn't want to tell her.
It was dishonorable to have a cousin who was a mistress, and he feared that his devotion to Ruth might be misunderstood—the affair was a Hockley scandal and kept to itself.
After a moment of stalemate with Green, Erica finally got the man's nod, and he let her send a telegram.
"Mr. Green, I don't know how to use this kind of tool. If you would take a moment to teach me, I would really appreciate it!"
There are only a few steps away from success, and Erica is willing to say all good things for the final success.So from this perspective, she and Green are still very similar.
Green frowned. He was exhausted now, and he was unwilling to teach Erica, a person who had no foundation.
"You can tell me the content and address you want to send, and I can keep it confidential for you."
"This is very important to me, I'm sorry, I can't tell you. Just treat it as repaying the favor, Mr. Green." Erica moved her lips and begged with her hands folded.
"May I ask roughly, who is your recipient?" Green was silent for a while. Although he is a businessman, he still has the virtues necessary for a gentleman. "I must tell you that you borrowed my transmitter, and I can check the records to know the letters you sent, so being honest is more conducive to keeping my secrets."
It doesn't feel good to be in debt at all. Before, Green thought Erica was very interesting, and he was happy to watch the show, so he owed Erica's favor in order to maintain the strange relationship between the two.
He didn't expect that Erica would offer to take back this life-saving grace so soon. This is too short-sighted!Let him very disappointed.
So he decided to end this 'game' as soon as possible.
Even if things have developed to the present, it may not be as simple as a game.
Green walked to Erica's side, and the two kept a safe social distance. His deep and pleasant voice sounded above Erica's head, introducing the content of the telegram.
"The Titanic is equipped with the most advanced telegraph equipment, which means that the transmission will be faster. If you don't need to send very complicated content, I can only tell some simple content, which makes it easier to get started."
"Unfortunately, the content I want to send is relatively cumbersome and may take up some of your time."
Green's brows frowned even tighter.He was not very happy to solve these troublesome trifles for Erica. At this moment, his heart was aching, which reminded him to lie down on the bed and go to rest as soon as possible.
But he finally reached out and showed Erica.
Telegrams use Morse code, which is the most cumbersome for beginners, because the rhythm is not easy to grasp, and the Morse code is not familiar enough, the content sent may be invalidated.
This Erica is obviously also fascinated by romantic things, maybe she is still deeply in love with her fiancé, after all, young girls can't escape the sweet words of handsome men.
Green once asked someone to check Erica's resume. After all, there are still people on board who know these things.
Green carefully explained all the basic rules to Erica.Although he frowned and spoke in a cold manner, he still taught Erica the basic rules.
A telegram is charged by the word.Green was sure that even if Erica failed hundreds of times in his telegraph room, he would still be able to afford it.So after the handover, he left the telegraph room, leaving Erica alone to try.
The telegraph room was actually very cramped. The smell of engine oil filled the small room, with only white walls on all sides, and the only silence in the room was the sound of electric current.
She sat down in front of the telegraph.
Where is the address? She just wants to send a telegram for help.
She still has some understanding of Morse code, and she also took related elective courses in college. It can only be said that some of the hobbies back then have become life-saving telegraphs now, and it is always right to learn more.
She could see Green's indifference, and the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. At this time, she was about to complete the most ideal plan, but Green's perception of her was forever labeled as short-sighted.
After getting off the boat, she will go far away. The world is so big and there are so many opportunities. There are opportunities for development everywhere. Or she can return to her family and change the family's dilemma through her own efforts. In this era , it is not impossible for a lady to inherit the family business...
She took a deep breath, discarded those assumptions about the future, discarded those weak distracting thoughts, and simply searched the address and communication bar posted on the desk with her eyes, and was pleasantly surprised to find a few routes that would meet the Titanic in the near future Coincident small and medium cruise ships.
After all, Green still cherishes life. He has prepared these, at least so that he can have a good private medical team to provide him with emergency treatment after the onset of the disease.Erica is sure that these recorded ships must have a certain interest relationship with Green.
If you ask for help from these ships, the chances of getting a response will be much higher than sending a message without purpose.
Erica's slender fingers slid across the form pasted on the table, and she ordered a few ships whose voyages were relatively close to the Titanic, and sent a telegram in earnest.
She is very happy that at this time of separation, she can still know that Green still cares about her body. She imagines Green as an opponent, but it is undeniable that she hopes that she and Green can become friends.
Erica asked for help from three medium-sized cruise ships. Even if only one arrived, coupled with the life-saving facilities on the Titanic, it was enough for most passengers to survive unscathed.
After she was done, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back on the hard back of the chair.
Things went so smoothly, unexpectedly smoothly, that Erica even wanted to do something more, so that this rare smoothness could benefit more people.
Her gaze finally settled on the first item in the communication column - White Star Company.
After getting along with Green, Erica felt that she was still a relatively decent person. He said that he would not ask the whereabouts of Erica's telegram, which meant that he would definitely not take the initiative to inquire.
This can give Erica a time gap. If she helps Green sell the shares, the crisis that Green will face in the future will be minimized. The reason is that in this way, after the disaster, when the liquidation is over, the two of them can escape unscathed in the face of questioning from other bankrupts.
This reason is not easy to find, but if she doesn't want to have a good reason, she must not send a telegram rashly, otherwise it will only bring disaster.
Said that she deliberately revenged on Green?
Come on, in that case, she might be sentenced to hang if she sneaked into other people's telegraph room!
What she needs is a reasonable and humane reason.
The hardest of these is getting yourself out.
She struggled in front of the telegraph for a long time, and from the corner of her eye, she saw the account transactions that had been translated.
Should it be said that Green was too careless?Or is Green's secretary careless?
Erica reached out for the papers, and she could still understand the financial statements, which were all Arabic numerals after all.If I remember correctly, Green's secretary is a young man named Hugh. He can be spotted by Green at a young age, which shows that he has certain skills.
These accounts were sorted out very cleanly. The entry and exit of each white star lot that Green bought from the market was very clearly listed. The general ledger was specially marked with blue notes, which seemed clear at a glance.
After reading it, Erica glanced at the wall clock hanging on the wall, it was already six o'clock.After this point, Green should not come back to look for the telegram on purpose. Before tonight, no one will be able to detect her actions.
So, why not keep some and sell more.The reason is not difficult to find at all. Looking at the end of these reports, there are still a few manuscripts that have been translated into Morse code, and the content is to sell part of the shares.It should be convenient to throw out at the highest price.
Erica smacked her lips, she is ready to sell at this time, she is really planning ahead!
Erica chose the one that sold the most, and sent out the whole one without hesitation.
Before the final product was sent out, she also made some preparations and sent a few not-so-perfect telegrams, with vague words and unclear content, as if after several attempts, she finally succeeded.
This writing will be useful in the future. She just borrowed some of Green's manuscripts and did the dispatching practice. Since she can't understand those accounts, it is easier to be forgiven, especially when she returned to Green. A lot of losses were recovered, and the original tragedy became quite comical. To a large extent, she was able to get out of it unscathed.
Half an hour ago, the Titanic had already reached its maximum speed. The observers on this ship would observe with the naked eye because they did not have binoculars. In the end, they did not report in time and hit the iceberg.
This is all beyond doubt.
She has finished sending the telegram.
At this time, a strange panic swept over her. If fate played tricks on her again and made the Titanic not loaded with icebergs at all, then how would she face the angry and disappointed Green?
What will her fate be like?
Intellectually, she knew that this kind of situation would basically not happen, but the too smooth situation made her lose this confidence.
She wanted to meet Green. Although she couldn't tell him what she had done, as long as she saw this man, her inexplicable fear would probably dissipate a lot.
When she walked to the door of Green's room, the door was ajar. She was about to knock on the door when she heard the conversation inside——
It was dishonorable to have a cousin who was a mistress, and he feared that his devotion to Ruth might be misunderstood—the affair was a Hockley scandal and kept to itself.
