166 survivors - the Chinese on the Titanic

Through the thin clothes, Laura felt the heat in the gap behind her, and she finally understood, it turned out that "on fire" meant this.

"Dead" she secretly scolded Situ Nan in her heart, "This guy has become more and more lustful since he got engaged"

Laura hurriedly broke free of Situ Nan's embrace and said with a smile: "Ignore you, I still have to communicate with the designer about the university's design plan." You can look at it, hehe."

After speaking, he ignored Situ Nan and walked away. Well, the ship was accompanied by designers who went to California Design University and some of the more "eager" teachers.

They will be under the umbrella of Berkeley for the time being, and will be transferred back to William University when it is built.

Looking at the graceful back, there was a faint flame in Situ Nan's eyes, well, it was really a little hot.

"Young master, this is the sugarcane I bought from the port yesterday, it's very sweet" Lin Yimin walked in, still holding a few pieces of sugarcane in his hand.

"How's it going? Still eating sugar cane? Situ Nan said with a frown.

In his mind, sugar cane, like most tropical fruits, was a hot thing, and the tea made with sucrose in his previous life was useless.

When I was a child in my previous life, I was prone to catching a cold as soon as I got on fire, and the memory of being pressed by my mother to drink those bitter Chinese medicines every time I was still retained. So I don't have much of a cold on sugarcane.

"You're talking about the black-skinned sugar cane, right? That's a bit hot, indeed. But this kind of yellow-skinned sugarcane is cool, cool and sweet, just to relieve the heat. Lin Yimin said with a smile.

As a native of Guangzhou, Lin Yimin, a "senior", knows more than Situ Nan in this regard.

"Really?" Situ Nan licked the corners of his mouth.

"Definitely, don't lie to you, authentic Cuban Havana sugar cane, didn't we drink a bottle of rum last night?". Lin Yimin slightly debunked Situ Nan's clumsy excuse for being afraid of getting angry. He picked up the cane and took a big bite unceremoniously.

Thinking of the bottle of reserve wine that others gave to Situ Nan last night, Lin Yimin had a sweet taste and fragrant feeling. After getting along these days, the relationship between the two has become a lot more familiar.

Situ Nan also tried two bites later, and it felt good, so he also gnawed on it.

"By the way, how is Chu Fu in Havana? Did he find those people? Situ Nan spit out a piece of bagasse and said.

"He didn't say anything about it, but he was already in Havana, and he said he would meet us at the docks and report back to you then."

Lin Yimin said. As soon as he got down to business, he immediately got serious.

"Hmm" Situ Nan stretched his waist, burped, and thought leisurely, "Why didn't you find them at that time?" It seems that they are destined to suffer for several years. ”

"The road is long and sleepy, and the people are thirsty for tea."

Although the ship was equipped with air conditioning, when entering the Gulf of Mexico, there was no wind at sea, and the scorching heat made people unrefreshed, Situ Nan was a little sleepy, and he fell asleep on the sofa after a while.

Lin Yimin went out gently, returned to the telegraph room, and took a telegram to Havana.

These days, when he has time, Situ Nan will tell Lin Yimin about some things about the consortium, including his own entrepreneurial experience, and even reveal some future predictions in a small way.

Following Situ Nan, Havana cigars, Cuban coffee, and rum Lin Yimin have all tasted it, but he has lived a better life than the previous Young Master Xiguan, which is not what makes him feel proud.

He felt that Situ Nan, the young master who made him feel respectful and dear, had a very wide range of knowledge, and knew a lot of knowledge, and what he learned from him was more valuable than what he learned in books.

In particular, Situ Nan's exposition on the rise and fall of the great powers of modern times made him even more obsessed and convinced. What Lin Yimin didn't know was that the things that Situ Nan said were all some of the views in "The Rise of a Great Power", which was popular in his previous life, and they were just picking up people's teeth. However, in this era, with more than a hundred years of experience, these views feel very fresh and exciting in Lin Yimin's view, as if a door has been opened from them.

At this time, in the docks of the port of Havana, a strong man was looking out from time to time, and every time a ship entered the port, he was shaken by his spirits, he stood on tiptoe, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the ship that "broke into" his sight, but it was all in vain in the morning.

"That's right, it's today," he pulled out the telegram from his trouser pocket, checked the date on it, and found that it was right, and couldn't help but sigh, "Why haven't you come yet?" ”

He ripped off his tie and unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, revealing bulging muscles, his clothes soaked with sweat and the feeling of clinging to his flesh.

"Brother Fu, didn't you say that the big boss was coming over today? Now that the sun is setting in the west, I'm afraid it's a business trip, right? An emaciated man next to him asked.

"yes"

"I didn't eat lunch yet."

There were two people standing next to him, and they also echoed at this time.

"What's the hurry? I'm not in a hurry, what are you anxious about? Even if you wait until the sun goes down, you have to wait" Chu Fu frowned, turned his head and glared at the few companions he brought, and shouted, "You anti-bone boys, don't forget who rescued you from the sugarcane forest."

Without him, you would have become fat a long time ago, I really don't know who is rambling, don't blame me for not recognizing him as a brother."

After being drunk by this man named Brother Fu, the remaining three people didn't dare to make a noise. A week ago, they were struggling in the sugarcane forest, getting up early every day to get up in the dark, shower in the sun, and almost collapsed in the vast sugarcane forest.

They had been living like this for a few years, but they couldn't get enough tickets home. It was already hopeless.

But not long ago, this rich man's man suddenly appeared in front of them, ransomed them from the owner of the sugar cane plantation, and became their boss, and gave them more favorable treatment.

For these people who have gone through the darkest things in the world, the moment Chu Fu appeared in front of them was their miracle, and they couldn't help but hug their heads and cry. Therefore, Chu Fu enjoys high prestige in the hearts of these people.

They still remember that Chu Fu said something at that time: "Originally, you people are dead, including me, but there is still a person you have met, you have to remember his name - Situ Nan is also your benefactor, the new boss"

The man in the lead was called Chu Fu, but he took an awkward English name choongfoo.

, The two people standing beside him were named Li Bing and Zhong Jie, and there was also a companion named Fang Wolf, who was lying in the hospital at the moment and couldn't come for the time being.

It turned out that these people were all survivors on the Titanic, and there were originally eight people, but unfortunately there were only four of them left.

Chu Fu and they used to be boiler workers on ships, affiliated with a shipping company in Hong Kong, and were later sent to the Titanic as low-level seamen, mainly burning coal, refueling, sweeping the floor, etc., with a salary of only one-fifth of that of foreign seafarers. Work fourteen or fifteen hours a day. It is also the hardest, most tiring and worst-paid seafarer on board.

But for these bitter men, the treatment given by the Titanic is already very ideal compared to other ships.

Unfortunately, the Titanic sank, and the fate of the eight Chinese crew members on board also took a turn.

Chu Fu still remembers that when the ship sank, if it weren't for his cleverness and fast running, he saw a lifeboat with many empty positions, so he jumped into the sea with all his might, swam over, and finally climbed onto the lifeboat.

Then he bowed his head and remained silent.

Because the ship was a group of white people, for fear of being recognized and thrown out to sea

Thinking of this, Chu Fu felt a little emotional, if he hadn't run out of the boiler room at that time and was blackened by coal, it is estimated that he would not even be able to climb the lifeboat

Eight Chinese crew members climbed onto the lifeboat, two of whom were sitted dead while hiding at the bottom of the lifeboat.

In that catastrophe of the century, all of us could not avoid the tragedy that befell them. The misery of it is useless to say otherwise.

To their despair, while the other passengers could enter the United States as refugees, they still had to stay on board the Carpathia, and were finally sent to Cuba to work as coolies by the ruthless White Star Steamship Company.

After that, there was a humiliating struggle

It should be said that it was Chu Fu's struggle

In 1913, he had secretly escaped from a plantation in Cuba and sneaked back to the United States to report the damages to the government. Because he lost £19 on the Titanic, which was the salary he had accumulated from working as a cow and a horse for several months. Unfortunately, there was no response.

As a last resort, Chu Fu had no choice but to run to San Francisco, and later joined a security consulting company by chance, and also met the noble man of his life - Situ Nan.

At first, Situ Nan didn't believe that Chu Fu had such a tortuous experience. Situ Nan was also on the Titanic at that time, why had he never seen these compatriots?

Also, when Situ Nan and Murdoch drove the lifeboat back to the rescue together, he didn't notice that there was a temporary crew member named Fang Wolf rowing on the opposite lifeboat.

Ten minutes ago, Fang Wolf had just been rescued from the water. When a British crew member lost his strength due to a long rowing effort, Fang Wolf bravely stepped forward and took the job.

But Situ Nan just didn't recognize it.

He always thought that he was half a Chinese on the Titanic? It wasn't until he met Chu Fu that Situ Nan knew that there were so many stories in it? He was embarrassed at the time, saying that if he knew, he would not stand idly by.

However, in Chu Fu's unceremonious words, it is "You have a good life, if you don't have a British nationality, you probably would have gone to Cuba with us to farm the fields."

These words immediately made Situ Nan speechless

Yes, I just have nothing**silk, and I am also a **silk who doesn't know tomorrow today-I don't have time to take care of myself, let alone take care of others?

Over the years, Situ Nan has not forgotten this matter, and neither he nor Chu Fu knew how much effort they had spent to track down the matter, but trying to find the remaining Chinese crew members in the vast plantations of the Caribbean islands was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Even Chu Fu didn't remember where he was sent, and he went around and around to get out of it.

It was only after Situ Nan acquired part of the shares of Baixing Company that things took a turn for the worse. Chu Fu finally got clues from the internal information of the White Star Company, and then traced it all the way to Cuba

This is the result of today, not to mention the bitter twists and turns

"No matter what, to be a respectable person, you have to rely on strength and keep up with his pace," Chu Fu thought silently in his heart.

Woowoo woo –

With a long whistle, the blue figure of the William broke into Chu Fu's sight

Here it comes

That's it

Chu Fu woke up suddenly, and his heart was excited

(After sitting for an afternoon, I couldn't write and delete freely.) Finally boiled it out)
