All Heavens Film and Television: Starting from Caring for the Widow of a Comrade-in-arms

Their personalities are like this, they are old dudes in vernacular, otherwise Astor would not marry his 19-year-old wife.

Isidore is a joking, kind, charitable old man with a bottom line.

He is the founder of Macy's department store in the United States. He and his wife Ada Strauss just finished their trip in France and boarded the Titanic on the same ferry boat with Astor.

Isidor and Ada are very affectionate. After the shipwreck, the couple refused to take the lifeboat in order not to be separated, and went directly to the cabin to embrace each other and be submerged in the sea.

At this time, the waiter brought the food and stood by the side to wait.

With a knife and fork in both hands, Russell said to the two, "Do you mind?"

"Please enjoy it yourself. We are too old to have extra meals at night, so we can only hide in a quiet restaurant to pass the time."

Astor is old and unruly, and his speech is mixed with meat and vegetables.

"Young people should eat more while they are in good health. When they get older, they will not be able to eat if they want to eat." The same is true for Isidore.

Russell said with a smile: "It seems impolite to eat all you can eat under the noses of the two, why don't you go hungry with me?"

"No, my wife is just pregnant, which means I won't be hungry, and naturally I won't be greedy."

"Oh, so the two of you are implying me." Isidore curled his lips.

"Ha ha…"

Watching Russell's meal, they actually got some appetite, so they tipped the waiter $30 and asked him to prepare some desserts and coffee.

The other tables in the restaurant had already left, leaving only three people.

After eating, the three of them lit cigarettes at the same time.

Astor exhaled the smoke, "It's me who suffers the most from my wife's pregnancy. It's really uncomfortable to smoke without cigarettes."

"Ada gave all my cigars to relatives..."

Astor turned his head to look at Russell, and asked, "Mr. Walker, are you planning to settle in the United States?"

"Yes, I'm going to set up a security company, and I'm already making preparations."

"Oh! Just do what you say, it's the character of young people nowadays." Isidor said.

"not bad."

Since it was too late, the three of them went back to their rooms to rest after smoking and chatting for a while.

Before leaving, Astor and Isido asked him to have lunch tomorrow, and Russell would of course agree. This was one of the temporary goals he had after meeting the two.

Russell came to the deck, looking at the night starry sky, feeling very good.

Just as he turned around, an old man with a white beard in a crew uniform was standing at the top of the stairs looking at him.

"Captain Smith."

"Mr. Walker, has the noise in the third-class cabin affected your rest?"

It was not the first time the two had met. Russell was Mrs. Brown's personal bodyguard and was going to board the ship with guns, and Captain Smith personally registered his information.

"That's not true, just wandering around bored."

Smith asked: "I heard from the crew that Mr. Walker has visited the entire interior of the ship since he boarded the ship. He is really dedicated."

"As a security consultant, this is all my duty. Does Captain Smith have any doubts?"

"No, the Titanic will arrive in Queenstown, Ireland tomorrow, and there will be first-class passengers disembarking. Mrs. Brown will give you an upgrade."

"Okay, the captain has an early rest, oh...Mr. Captain, I saw that the observers on the observation deck are not equipped with binoculars. Is this the negligence of the White Star Shipping Company?"

Captain Smith was taken aback when he heard the words, and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Walker, you are indeed very professional."

"You're welcome."

"If you don't mind, can you go to my room to rest? To express my gratitude."

"Don't bother, if Captain Smith has to thank you, you can pay me to take a Turkish bath."

The Turkish bath is an advanced version of sweat steaming, which is much more gorgeous than the regular bathing center, but it has to be paid separately.

"no problem!"

Now that you are on the Titanic, you should enjoy it, otherwise there will be no shop after this village.

Edward Smith has rich sailing experience. He has served as the captain of three ships and experienced many dangers at sea, but he saved them all.

He is also known as the millionaire captain and the safety captain. A few years ago, he boasted that he had never been a collision captain in White Star Line for so many years, but the good times did not last long...

The White Star Shipping Company paid special attention to him, so the salary was very generous, with a salary of 1250 pounds and a no-collision bonus of 200 pounds, which was the highest salary among all senior crew members. (equivalent to £141000 in reality)

Smith personally led Russell to the bathroom. The waiter was very respectful, and he didn't even dare to ask for the tip Russell handed over.

The Turkish bath is really good, the scenery is gorgeous and pleasant, which makes people feel comfortable.

Chapter 75 Guns, Ruth's Mother Fisher

1912 4 Month 11 Day.

In the morning, eight o'clock.

The shrill voices of the girls playing in the water woke up Russell, who was resting in the spa cubicle.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes and got up, opened the door and plunged into the water, taking a hot bath amidst the girls' exclamations.

At first the girls were disgusted, but when they saw Russell's face, they changed their attitude.

However, he had no time to waste on these underdeveloped girls.

While he was putting on his suit and leather shoes and arranging his hair, the waiter who served him last night came up and asked if he wanted breakfast.

He mentioned several kinds of food and the waiter went to prepare them. When he walked out of the Turkish bath, he saw several kinds of food he wanted placed on the small round table in the rest area.

He took out thirty cents and handed it to the waiter.

"Last night, you were out of the captain's face. Now the captain is not here, so keep it."

The waiter said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Walker."

"When are we going to Queenstown?"

"Around ten o'clock, sir."

The Titanic will not stop at Queenstown, it will just put those who disembark on the ferry and continue on its way.

After enjoying his breakfast, Russell got up and went to the third-class cabin.

Compared with the luxurious diet of first class, the food of third class is much simpler.

Only bread and cheese, very little seafood.

Pushing open the G-61 cabin door, I saw seven people sitting in the room. Tommy Ryan was sitting at a desk by the window writing statistics with a pen, and the other six people were dictating while looking at the paper in their hands.

"Mr. Walker!"

Tommy turned his head and saw that it was Russell who immediately got up to greet him.

The six of them stood up obediently.

Russell nodded: "Sit."

The six looked at Tommy, and only after seeing him sitting down did they dare to sit down.

"Is the list counted?"

"Statistics are being made, Mr. Walker. There are quite a few carpenters on the ship. They are going to the United States to participate in the construction. They are very excited to hear that there will be jobs when they get off the ship."

Russell took the list from his hand and looked at it carefully.

There are 53 carpenters on board, of which apprentices account for the majority, nine of them are second masters, and only three are experienced old carpenters.

However, his requirements are not high, as long as he knows how to nail the planks firmly.

"Very well, do they have carry-on tools?"

Tommy was taken aback, and said, "Mr. Walker, they have carrying tools that can make any furniture."

"No, I don't need to make furniture, just a hammer, nails, and hinges to fasten the planks to the roof."

"Yes, I have seen their tools, but there are not too many nails, after all, nails are only used when doing work..."

Russell nodded: "Very well, you divide these people into six groups, and I will treat them to dinner."

"Oh! Thank you, Mr. Walker." Tommy's pupils sparkled.

"Your salary will also be paid after dinner. Are these four people from your hometown? Railway workers?"

"Yes, they are very strong, and they are definitely good at doing things."

Russell turned his head to stare at Tommy, which made him feel a little numb.

"Tommy, remember! I don't want a skilled worker, I want a soldier who dares to take a gun to the battlefield, understand?

I doubt whether you can do security work, your words are full of carelessness, but as a security consultant and personal bodyguard, carelessness is fatal! "

Hearing this, the seven of them froze at the same time.

They looked at each other, puzzled in their eyes.

"Mr. Walker, please rest assured that we will definitely become a qualified security consultant."

Russell shook his head: "No, safety consultants must always be vigilant and considerate of their employers, keep an eye on six roads and listen to all directions. But your thinking concepts are still stuck in farmers and railway workers!"

Tommy opened his mouth, "Mr. Walker, we will definitely... If you don't believe me, if you send us a task, we will definitely complete it. We have guts and brains."

Russell frowned and glanced at the seven people, "You... well, this is not a test, but rather a persuasion task. Frankly speaking, I am afraid you will not be able to complete it."

"Mr. Walker, with all due respect, you didn't even say what the task is, so how do you know we can't finish it."

"Then go get seven guns."

"what?"

They exclaimed at the same time, staring and opening their mouths in disbelief.

"You are not suitable for this job, go back and be a farmer. Oh, maybe I will buy a farm in the United States, and then you can help me plant the land and graze."

Tommy heard the words and said anxiously: "Mr. Walker, although we are low-level farmers, you can't insult us like this... Seven guns? I will take care of it. But please pay the salary according to the standard of performing the task!"

Russell waved his hand, "The salary will be distributed after dinner, I only give you two days."

"Okay. . . . Mr. Walker, when we get the gun . . . "

"Give me the gun and I will return it to the owner and apologize to them. You are my employees and I have to do this as a boss."

"Thank you, Mr. Walker. I offended you with my words just now, please don't mind."

"Of course not. On the contrary, I am very happy, because this is the temper you should have as a security consultant. How about your employer having a dispute with someone, what should you do?"

Russell taught the seven people an experience lesson, and they listened very carefully.

Tommy took the initiative to ask many questions, and Russell answered them one by one.

It was nearly ten o'clock, and Russell got up and left. He had to go to Mrs. Brown, and then go to meet Astor and Isidore for lunch.

After Russell left, the seven people in the cabin looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

Laimai patted his legs, "Tommy, you shouldn't have promised Mr. Walker, we never had a chance to see the gun."

"yes……"

Tommy gritted his teeth and said: "Walker looks down on me, do you also look down on me? Do you know why Mr. Walker doesn't want us? It's because we have no guts and have been doing things like farmers and workers!"

Thain: "Then tell me, how do we get the gun?"

"..."

At 10 o'clock, the Titanic stopped briefly in Queenstown, Ireland. Passengers boarded the pier by ferry. A first-class passenger took a full-body photo of the Titanic with a camera at the Queenstown pier, and this photo is also her The last swan song.

Afterwards, the Titanic sailed towards the Atlantic Ocean at a speed of 20 knots.

Cafe.

Mrs. Brown is mixing with celebrities and nobles such as Ruth's mother Fisher and Ada Strauss.

Obviously, the celebrities and nobles headed by Fisher don't like upstarts like Mrs. Brown.

When chatting, Brown couldn't get in his mouth, so he could only endure the risk of eardrum injury and listen to their gossip. Mrs. Brown didn't like to stay with them, and she could feel the rejection and discrimination from the other party.

Just like when you are surrounded by a fire, can you not feel the temperature of the flame?
