The journey starts from the Titanic

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

"Sure! Don't lie to you! Authentic Cuban Havana sugarcane! Didn't we still drank a bottle of rum last night?" Lin Yimin slightly broke through Situ Nan's botched excuse for fear of getting angry.He picked up the sugar cane and bit it unceremoniously.

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

Situ Nan also tried a couple of mouthfuls later, and it felt good, so he followed suit.

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

"Brother Fu didn't talk about it, but he was already in Havana. He said that he will meet us at the dock and report to you at that time."

Lin Yimin said.When it comes to business, he immediately gets serious.

"Yeah!" Situ Nan stretched out, burped, and thought leisurely, "Why didn't you find them at the time? It seems that they are destined to suffer the past few years."

...

"It's a long way to drink but sleepy. People in Higao are thirsty for tea.

Although the ship was air-conditioned, it entered the Gulf of Mexico and there was no wind on the sea. The scorching high temperature made people uneasy. Situ Nan was a little sleepy, and soon fell asleep on the sofa.

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

These days, when he is free, Situ Nan will tell Lin Yimin about the consortium, including his own entrepreneurial experience, and even slightly reveal some future predictions.

Following Situ Nan, I have tasted Havana cigars, Cuban coffee, and rum Lin Yimin, but he has a better life than the previous Master Xiguan. This is not a place to make him proud.

He felt that Situ Nan, a young master who made him feel respectful and close, was very knowledgeable and knew a lot of knowledge. The things he learned from him were more valuable than the knowledge learned in books.

In particular, Situ Nan's discussion of the rise and fall of the great powers in modern times made him even more obsessed and convinced.What Lin Yimin didn't know was that the things that Situ Nan said were some of the views in "The Rise of the Great Powers" that was popular in his previous life.However, in this era, with more than a hundred years of experience, these views are very fresh and exciting in Lin Yimin's view, as if they have opened a door.

At this time, at the port of Havana, a strong man is looking out from time to time. Every time a boat enters the port, he is refreshed. He stands on tiptoe and stares closely at "breaking in". The ship, but it was all in vain when it came down all 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, he couldn't help sighing, "Why haven't you come yet?"

He pulled off his tie and loosened the top button of his shirt, revealing his bulging muscles. The clothes had been soaked with sweat, and the feeling of sticking to the flesh made him uncomfortable.

"Brother rich, didn't you say that the big boss is coming over today? Now the sun is slanting to the west, I'm afraid something went wrong, right?" a thin man next to him asked.

"Yes!"

"I haven't eaten any lunch yet!"

There were two people standing beside them, and they also echoed.

"What is it? I'm not in a hurry, what are you in a hurry? Even if you wait until the sun goes up, you have to wait!" Chu Fu frowned, turned his head and glared at some of the companions he had brought, and shouted, "You guys, Don't forget who rescued you from the sugar cane forest.

Without him, you would have become fat!I really don't know what it is!Who is talking, don't blame me for not admitting him as a brother!"

After being drunk by this man named Fu Ge, the remaining three dared not scream.A week ago, they were still struggling in the sugar cane forest. They woke up in the dark every morning, took a shower in the sun, and almost fell into the vast sugar cane forest.

It's been a few years since this day, but they don't have enough tickets to go home.It was already desperate.

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

This is for these people who have experienced the darkest person in the world. The moment Chu Fu appeared in front of them was their miracle, and they couldn't help crying.Therefore, Chu Fu enjoys lofty prestige in the hearts of these people.

They still remember that Chu Fu said something at the time: "Originally, you people are dead, including me, but you also met someone. You must remember his name-Situ Nan! That is your benefactor. , New boss!"

The man in the lead was named Chu Fu, but he took a sloppy English name named ChoongFoo. The two standing next to him were named Li Bing and Zhong Jie, and there was a companion named Fang Lang. He was lying in the hospital at this moment and could not come. Up.

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

Chu Fu used to be boiler workers on the ship and belonged to a Hong Kong shipping company. Later, they were sent to the Titanic as junior seamen. Their main jobs were coal burning, refueling, sweeping, etc., and their wages were only one-fifths of foreign seafarers’ wages. One.Work 14 to 5 hours a day.He is also the hardest, most tired, and worst-paid seaman on board.

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

It's a pity that good times didn't always happen, the Titanic sank, and the fate of the eight Chinese crew members on the ship changed.

Chu Fu still remembered that when the ship sank, if it wasn't for his cleverness and running fast, he saw a lifeboat with a lot of empty spaces, he jumped into the sea, swam over, and finally climbed into the lifeboat.

Then he lowered his head and said nothing.

Because there are a group of white people on board, for fear of being recognized and thrown into the sea!

Thinking of this, Chu Fu felt a little emotional. If he hadn't run out of the boiler room and had been blackened by coal, he wouldn't even be able to climb the lifeboat!

Eight Chinese crew members climbed onto the lifeboat. Two of them were sat dead for hiding in the bottom of the lifeboat.

In that century's catastrophe, no one could avoid the tragedy that happened to them.The tragedy in it is useless.

What made Chufu and the others desperate was that when other passengers could enter the United States as refugees, they still had to stay on the Capasia, and were finally sent to Cuba by the cruel White Star Shipping Company to do coolies.

After that is the humiliating struggle!

It should be said that it was Chu Fu's resistance!

In 1913, he secretly escaped from a plantation in Cuba, sneaked back to the United States, and submitted a loss report to the government.Because he lost 19 pounds on the Titanic, that was his salary accumulated over several months as a bull and a horse.Unfortunately, no response was received.

As a last resort, Chu Fu had no choice but to go to San Francisco. Later, by chance, he joined the security consulting company and met Situ Nan, the nobleman of his life.

At first Situ Nan did not believe that Chu Fu had such a tortuous experience.Situ Nan was also on the Titanic at the time, so why never met these compatriots?

Also, when Situ Nan and Murdoch drove the lifeboat back to rescue, he did not find a temporary crew member named Fang Lang on the lifeboat opposite was rowing.

Ten minutes ago, Fang Lang had just been rescued from the water.A British crew member lost his power after rowing for a long time, and Fang Lang bravely stood up and replaced the job.

But Situ Nan just didn't recognize it.

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

However, in Chu Fu's unceremonious words, it is, "You have a good fate! If you didn't have a British nationality, I would probably have gone to Cuba with us to cultivate the fields!"

This immediately left Situ Nan speechless!

Yes, I'm just a dick who has nothing, and still a dick who doesn't know what is going to happen today—who cares about herself, let alone cares about others?

Over the years, Situ Nan hasn't forgotten the incident. He and Chu Fu didn't know how much effort they had spent to track down the incident, but trying to find the remaining Chinese crew members in the vast plantations of the Caribbean Islands was like finding a needle in a haystack.

Even Chu Fu didn't remember where he was sent, he went around and escaped from it.

After Situ Nan bought part of the shares of White Star Company, things took a turn.Chu Fu finally got a clue from the internal information of the White Star Company, and then traced it all the way to Cuba...

This is the result today!Not to mention the bitterness and twists!

"In any case, we must be a respectable person! We must rely on strength! And follow his footsteps!" Chu Fu thought silently.

Uuuu-a long ship whistle, the blue figure of the William that day broke into Chu Fu's sight!
