[Titanic] Where Your Heart Goes

Carl insincerely pushed the blond boy he was interested in into a trap, and then he left the deck freely.Karl is sure that he still has a lot to do, such as the dance tonight, I believe that Mr. Ishmay and Mr. Andrew have already contacted those buyers who are eager to take advantage of it - at least it has given them a strong willingness to buy .

When Carl returned to the room, Rose disappeared again, this time even more miraculously, even Mrs. DeWitt disappeared.Karl glanced at his suite strangely. It seems that only the housekeeper Lai Fujie is left with him?

"Where's Raffles, Rose and Mrs. DeWitt?"

Mr. Butler bowed and saluted. He stood respectfully behind Carl and said softly, "Master, they are all in their rooms, getting ready for the dance tonight."

Carl looked back in disbelief, took out his pocket watch and checked the time several times before saying, "Lai Fujie, if my pocket watch is not broken, it is only two o'clock in the afternoon, and if I remember correctly, the dance tonight will be at It starts at ten."

Mr. Steward's voice did not fluctuate. He told Carl very calmly: "Master, Miss Rose must take off the dress she wore for lunch and change into another long dress."

"But there were eight full hours in between! Laforger, are you kidding me?"

"Miss Rose also needs to readjust her corset and fit herself into a sixteen-inch skirt, sir, and I personally don't think that's a long time."

The butler Lai Fujie spoke very calmly, but Karl felt that his eyes were darkened, and he was strangled into a slender waist of [-] inches with eight girls. Women in this era are too...

"Lai Fujie, please tell Ms. Rose for me, I hope she learns to diet and exercise to lose weight, instead of relying on unreliable tights." Carl emphasized this point. He really couldn't understand the aesthetics of the early twentieth century. It must be the legendary generation gap.

"Yes, master, I will remember to remind Miss Rose."

Carl waved his hand irritably: "Go and show me all my own property certificates, I want to calculate how much money I have left."

Of course, what Karl wants to do is not this. What he wants to do is to confirm in advance the industries that he will continue to grow in the Great Depression ten years later, such as the military industry that cooperates with the government-the Second World War Only in this way can the U.S. economy get the best recovery.

Carl Hawley invests in a variety of content, from mining, farming, and sheep herding in the western United States to various types of enterprises in the eastern United States. He is an excellent investor——Carl commented on the original owner of the body, and then the corner of his mouth curled up a smile.It just seems that the return of the capital chain is not so smooth. Once there are any major problems, it will be connected into a huge storm.

"Yes, I found it."

Carl was talking to himself and got a satisfactory answer. Carl concentrated on other things.The shipwreck's blow to Karl's business is definitely not just a matter of compensation as a major shareholder after the death.Carl himself is the son of a steel tycoon. Most of the steel used on the Titanic was produced by the Hawley family. Once the Titanic is silent, people will inevitably investigate the cause of the shipwreck.

I believe that many people will feel that the hull itself has quality problems, rather than just blaming everything for hitting an iceberg.At this time, what will the shipwrecked rich people do when they need to use steel again?They will feel that Hawley's steel is not so reliable, and they will turn their attention to other steel manufacturers.

Public distrust of Hawley's steel mills would also take a huge toll on the Hawley family's business.Owning a machine manufacturer is the safest way!Carl closed his eyes and silently recalled the memories in his mind, trying to organize them into the focus of his entire investment direction and industry in the future.

"The Great Depression, the Great Depression...Damn it, what were the support policies introduced by the government at that time?" Karl was irritated recalling the theoretical knowledge that had been almost forgotten, and he suddenly remembered the period of the Great Depression in the United States The president of the United States, yes, Roosevelt Jr.!

Karl felt he was saved!The famous "Roosevelt New Deal" in American history!If you look at what Roosevelt saved, you will know which direction you want to invest in. As long as you hold on, you will definitely not lose money to death.The first unlucky people in the Great Depression were steel companies and banks. Karl put his hands on the table in a tower shape, and the fake gentle smile on his face disappeared completely.

Carl has now completely restored his cold-blooded appearance. More than 5000 billion U.S. dollars in stocks disappeared overnight, stocks collapsed, inventories piled up, workers lost their jobs, and stores closed.Countless bank failures, backlogs of agricultural and sideline products, unemployed workers, and countless business closures—is this what he will face ten years from now?

Carl found helplessly that only after this Great Depression, the America he faced would be the America he remembered in the future, with social norms and rules of the game. The current American market is completely laissez-faire, everything is Relying on the market economy is very detrimental to Karl, who is not familiar with this set of rules.

Carl suddenly noticed that his thinking had gone too far, and what he should do now was to deal with the immediate crisis—the impact of the silence of the Titanic on the family steel business.Manufacturing agricultural machinery should be a very good choice. The Civil War ended not long ago. Carl is glad that he was in the semi-mechanization of American agriculture, with tractors, harvesters, rice transplanters, rotary tillers, micro-tillers, etc. Wait, he can use all of this.

And Karl has already thought it over, anyway, the First World War will definitely start, and military supplies will definitely be a necessity at that time. The Great Depression came later, but that had no effect on Carl's plans.

Carl owns farmland, a textile factory, and a food manufacturing factory. All he needs to do is to add an agricultural machinery and equipment manufacturing factory to connect everything in series—the crops in the farmland are made into vacuum cans and clothes and bedding. Sell ​​these goods, and wait until the Great Depression to buy these things frantically, and then throw them all in the warehouse, you can wait for the World War I to start collecting money.

"Master, it's time for you to change your clothes. There is still an hour before the dance." The butler Lai Fujie came to the study quietly. He stood by the door and softly reminded Karl of the dance time. Karl immediately woke up from his thoughts. , He went back to his room, changed into a suit casually, sprayed perfume on his body, and walked out of the room.

His dear fiancée, Miss Rose, wore a long black lace dress with a maroon base, which was very charming. It was obviously well-dressed, but it was a pity that Carl could not receive this kind of care.Carl took Rose's arm and led her to the ball. Carl immediately spotted the traces of Mr. Ishmay and Mr. Andrew, accompanied by several gentlemen and ladies who were smiling happily.

Carl walked towards them with steady steps, but saw a familiar figure walking towards the aft deck through the glass window. He had short blond hair and was wearing an old warm coat.
