The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 163

"That's it. Our company's engineers put forward an idea to produce a mine with an antenna, which contains a lot of explosives and a long antenna outside.

We can place this kind of mine on the submarine's infested route. Once the submarine encounters this kind of mine, it will cause a huge explosion and blow the submarine over.

This can not only damage the morale of the opponent, but also effectively curb the range of activities of German submarines and reduce the number of sinking of our merchant ships."

Situ Nan said confidently, and took a sip of coffee. He just talked in a daze, and his saliva was a little dry.

"Mr. William, we are still a neutral country. We have to wait until the White House to make a decision on war. It is too early to block German submarines with mines."

Franklin reminded that at this critical moment, his position as a government official was somewhat sensitive, so he began to pretend.

"Pretend, just pretend!" Situ Nan thought to himself.

Sure enough, he expected.Franklin Roosevelt changed his words, "However, it is necessary to maintain the safety of the Navy. We must take precautions. What you just said is good and worth a try! I hope that samples can be made as soon as possible, and I will be able to persuade the officials of the committee. People."

As a believer in Mahan, Franklin Roosevelt saw farther than most people. The current status of the United States does not match his economic strength, so this round of world war will be a good opportunity to shuffle the cards.

Building a powerful navy and letting it win in war is Franklin Roosevelt’s goal as the Navy’s deputy commander. At the same time, his good performance in the Navy Department will also be of great benefit to his future political career, so for Situ Nan's suggestion was accepted right from the beginning.

"Yeah." Situ Nan nodded, "I already have a good candidate for the person in charge of the project, Nikola Tesla."

"Nikola Tesla? Are you talking about the scientist who invented alternating current?" Franklin Roosevelt asked in surprise.

"Yes, after our company's invitation, Mr. Tesla finally agreed to conduct research with us in this area." Situ Nandao.

In fact, he never mentioned this to Nikola Tesla, but after seeing Nikola Tesla's dilemma a few days ago, Situ Nan was confident to persuade him to cooperate with him.

No, in order to add some points in front of Roosevelt, Situ Nan had an idea to borrow the tiger skin of Nikola Tesla for a while.

"If that weird person is involved, things will be much easier." Franklin Roosevelt had apparently heard of Nikola Tesla's name, although Nikola Tesla's business was a mess, but no One can deny his technical talent.

"Yes. But now Bethlehem has many projects in progress at the same time, so funding is a bit tight. I hope to cooperate with the Roosevelt family in this regard."

Situ Nan finished speaking and looked at Franklin Roosevelt eagerly. This was his main purpose for coming today.Now that such a good opportunity is presented to the door, it depends on whether the other party accepts it.

What does this Stoneney William mean?Will he lack funds?Want to cooperate with the Roosevelt family?

Franklin Roosevelt's mind was spinning quickly, and the conclusion came out immediately, and the other party was showing good!

This young man is really "well-intentioned"!Actually thought of giving a good deal to the Roosevelt family in this way.

Although the Roosevelt family is not short of money, and the large estates on Fifth Avenue belong to their family, no one will think it is too much.

Franklin Roosevelt smiled knowingly, "I have no problem with this, but now I'm going to Washington. You can talk to Anna later! We will find some time to discuss other things then!"

Franklin raised his watch and said apologetically, he left, but Situ Nan stayed and talked about business with a woman!

This is the first time!

Chapter 142 The Mines of the 10 Million Dollar Women's Friends!

"Mom, my elder sister ate my lollipop." A three or four-year-old child with a milky milk came in, looking a little pitiful.

"Jimmy, what's going on?" Anna asked gently, apologizing to Situ Nan, "This is my youngest son, Jimmy Roosevelt."

"She said that children would lose their teeth when they eat candy, so I gave her the candy. I didn't want to lose my teeth and gave her the lollipop. But she hid in the room and secretly ate my lollipop." Although little Jimmy is milky and milky, the main thing is clear.

"So she deceived you, so you are sad?" Anna Roosevelt touched Jimmy's head dozingly.

"No, my sister told me that if she is an adult, adults can eat candy without losing their teeth. Mom, when will I grow up? I have to eat a lot of lollipops."

The little guy shook his mother's hand coquettishly and looked at Anna Roosevelt with bright eyes, thief, a little eager.

Situ Nan couldn't help but smile, this kid wants to grow up quickly just to eat sweets?

After a while, the butler came in and took little Jimmy away so as not to interfere with the conversation between the lady and the guest.

"Children are so innocent. They write all their thoughts on their faces, and they are not fake at all. This is why people think they are cute." Situ Nan smiled.

"Yes. But sometimes they are also very naughty, you will know later." Anna Roosevelt smiled, her face was gentle and somewhat happy.

Situ Nan remembered that during World War II, Franklin Roosevelt sent all his sons to the battlefield, and he also made a lot of battle achievements. I don’t know which child I just met will be like in history, resolutely Go to the front?

After the negotiation was a little bit upset, Situ Nan and Anna continued to discuss the cooperation between the two.Anna Roosevelt, who was hinted by her husband, agreed to Situ Nan’s cooperation plan without much consideration. Both parties invested 50,000 US dollars to establish a laboratory specializing in research on triggering mines. The head of the laboratory has been appointed Nicolas by Situ Nan. · Tesla.

In Situ Nan’s view, there will not be too many technical problems with this project. He mainly wants to train Nikola Tesla for hand training. After the results are released, they will be handed over to the Bethlehem Arms Manufacturing Company for production.

As for how much money he could make, Situ Nan didn't report much expectations. He just hoped to lay the foundation for further cooperation with the Roosevelt family in the future.

After the business talks, it was still early, and Situ Nan stayed there and talked about other things with Anna.

"Stoney, it's really hard to believe that you are only 22 years old, you know? You make me feel so special, much stronger than those in New York!"

Anna smiled.At first she thought Situ Nan was pretending to be an adult, but after talking with Situ Nan, Situ Nan did not have the irritability of a hairy child at all, he was not ill or angry, he appeared confident and mature, and didn't talk much, but she often hit the target. The essence of the matter.She realized that the other party was really not pretending to be mature, but a mature and sophisticated soul hidden under the tender flesh.

Situ Nan smiled and didn't say anything. It would be impossible for a person to be immature if others had their own experience.

"I think the husband is amazing? Not only did he keep the family in order, but he also attended social occasions frequently, which helped Mr. Roosevelt a lot. Independence, self-confidence, in you I see a bright future for a new generation of women."

Situ Nanzan said."Thank you. But am I really as good as you said?" Anna Roosevelt was a little embarrassed, she felt that Situ Nan's evaluation was a bit too high.

"Really. Decades ago, this country experienced a revolution to abolish slavery. Similarly, in the near future, a feminist movement and a struggle for rights among minorities will rise one after another. I think if the wife can If you work hard in this regard, not only will it be of great help to Mr. Roosevelt’s career, but the future achievements of Mrs. Roosevelt will be no less than that of Mr. Roosevelt."

Situ Nan encouraged, he tried to arouse Anna Roosevelt's ambitions.

"Haha! It seems to be true, but I think participating in social activities can help a lot of people. This is very interesting. There should be more women like me in the United States to stand up and fight for their rights and at the same time. Promote the progress of society."

Anna Roosevelt said.

In fact, there is no need to instigate Situ Nan. Since Roosevelt entered politics, Anna Roosevelt has always acted as a good helper for her husband. She actively attended various social occasions, gave speeches, and called on more people to care about women and disadvantaged groups. I have gained a certain reputation in various circles in New York, and I like to engage in these meaningful activities.This also laid the foundation for her to become the legendary first lady of the White House in the future.

Throughout the twentieth century, there is almost no woman greater than Anna Roosevelt. Her talents and achievements are almost unmatched. Even the famous Franklin Roosevelt in the future cannot completely hide her limelight.

It is because of seeing huge potential in Anna Roosevelt, and at the same time deepening the relationship with the Roosevelt family, Situ Nan hopes to give him some guidance.

If this power can be used by him, it will be a huge help in both career and other aspects.Speculative politics means choosing the right politicians or politicians who can bring benefits to oneself, and at the same time, it can broaden the network.

Networking, this is the thing that Situ Nan lacks most at present, so he had to put a lot of effort on the Roosevelt and his wife, and only he was convinced of how high this family will grow in the next few decades.

This is a conversation that has changed. After completing a small business negotiation hastily, they shifted the topic to other aspects.

Anna Roosevelt was a feminist and also strongly advocated the protection of human rights.In terms of equality between men and women, Situ Nan, who comes from the soul of the 21st century, did not discriminate against women as universally as men of this era, thinking that women can only stay at home, cooking and raising children.

"Although there are differences in the division of labor between men and women, their status should be completely equal. The society should respect and protect women to avoid unfair treatment due to gender differences." Situ Nan said.

"Good point! Now New Zealand, Australia, Norway, Denmark and other countries have given women the right to vote, but countries such as the United Kingdom, the United States, and France, which claim to be civilized countries, do not pay attention to the rights of women. Their women do not have the right to vote. And the company often refuses to hire them because of their gender or give them treatment lower than men, and they are often beaten by their drunk husbands, which is really too bad.

I think the government should prohibit alcohol. Alcohol is the original sin. It makes people lose their minds and causes great damage to families and society."Anna Roosevelt said angrily.
