The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 201

Fortunately, Laura and Mary met very harmoniously, without the incongruity that Situ Nan imagined.

"Stone, Stone!" As soon as Situ Nan got off the boat, he saw Little Tom rushing over.

Situ Nan let go of Laura's hand, took a step forward and took little Tom into his arms, turning around in a circle, making him laugh.I haven't seen him for a year, this kid has sunk a lot, and Situ Nan is struggling to hold little Tom.

"Do you miss me? Tom." Situ Nan asked affectionately.

"Thinking. Stoneney, why have you been there for so long? Mary often nags why you never come?" Little Tom said complaining a little.

Situ Nan turned his head and looked at Mary, who was walking by. She hadn't seen her for a year, and the beauty in front of her was reduced a lot.Mary is wearing a black and white elegant dress and her hair is slightly perm. Apparently, she has dressed up to meet Situ Nan today.

Haven't seen you in a year!Mary saw the young and handsome figure, her eyes lit up with a smile at the corner of her mouth, she couldn't help speeding up her pace, but she blushed slightly by little Tom's words.

"Hi! Mary, how are you?" Situ Nan said briskly, suppressing the excitement in his heart.

"Okay, everything is fine." Mary bowed her chest, calmed down quickly, and smiled.

"My dear, is this the cousin Mary you talked about?" Laura said generously. She was watching the scene just now. Based on the woman's instinct, she felt that Situ Nan and Mary had just looked at the one. There was an unspeakable feeling in an instant.

"Ahem." Situ Nan turned around and introduced generously, "My fiancee, Laura. Laura, this is Mary, and our lovely little Tom."

"Miss Laura, welcome to Los Angeles. I think you will like this place soon." Mary approached her affectionately and took Laura's hand. "I always wanted to see what kind of woman made our history. Tony was fascinated. As expected, she is such a beauty!"

"Cousin Mary, you are also very beautiful! Stoneny often tells me, thanks to your care! I think we will have to trouble you a lot in the future. You know? Stoneny, he wants to build a university in Los Angeles. This person is busy again, so now everything is called to push me." Laura said.

Maybe it's showing off, maybe it's showing one's attitude.

"Haha. Miss Laura laughed. We still have more mothers and children to take care of by Stonney. Without his help these years, I don't know how to raise Tom healthy and happy." Mary said with emotion.Seeing little Tom's head and brain, he smiled in relief.

He hadn't dared to interrupt the two women just now, he could only pay attention to them carefully, and he was secretly relieved when he saw that they looked like sisters.

Women’s minds are sometimes very small and elusive. For Situ Nan, he must try his best to avoid exposure of his relationship with Mary, and at the same time not hurt Laura’s heart. This is obviously a contradiction!

But how to do it?Situ Nan had no bottom in his heart, so he could only take one step.

"Oh! What a beautiful boat! Stoneny, you just got off that boat?" Little Tom asked curiously as he watched the William moored quietly in the harbor.

"Yes. This is my ship, named William! Do you like it?" Situ Nan replied.

Little Tom's interruption drew the big guy's attention to the William.

"Can you go up and have a look?" Little Tom looked at William's slender and charming figure, his eyes were full of excitement, he took Lamari's hand, and looked at Situ Nan eagerly.

Mary also saw the William. It was indeed very beautiful. It was the most beautiful cruise ship she had ever seen.She knew that there had never been such a luxurious cruise ship in Los Angeles, and the William was also a status symbol.

While everyone was not paying attention, Mary glanced at Situ Nan. She was handsome and handsome. She hadn't seen her for a year, and she became more mature and more manly.

Every once in a while, Mary will find that this man is getting stronger and stronger, bringing her more and more surprises.She watched Situ Nan's career increase over the years, almost to a point she couldn't imagine.

But such a man cannot belong to him alone, maybe only a girl like Laura is worthy of him!If he doesn't dislike himself, let's be a lover with peace of mind!

Love, complaining, pride, sadness, ups and downs, mixed feelings in Mary's heart.

Situ Nan's group returned to the William again. Little Tom was very excited as soon as he got on the boat, and squatting around, Situ Nan followed him closely.

Laura was holding Mary by the hand, and she kept introducing the William as a mistress. During these days, she and Situ Nan lived on the William together, so she was very familiar with the William.If it weren't for Situ Nan to deal with official business on the ship, and she herself made some preparations for the university, the two had really lived a life like the Garden of Eden.

"Laura, do you think we bought the island opposite, built a house on it, and lived there for a while when we were free, what do you think?" Situ Nan said to Laura.

The island he said is called Santa Catalina Coconut Island, which is only 35 kilometers away from Long Beach City on the other side. It can be reached within an hour by boat.

There are not many people living on the island, only some seals and seabirds, and they are not afraid of people.If you can live for several years in a year, it is also a good choice to take a holiday.

Situ Nan had heard from his previous life that tens of thousands of tourists go to Santa Catalina Coconut Island for vacation during holidays.I thought that now that I am so rich and bought so many land in Latin America, it is not too much to return to Los Angeles to buy an island, right?

Of course, Situ Nan also thought of the booming real estate industry a few years later. After the United States entered the 1920s, all walks of life began to prosper. Among them, automobiles, construction, and oil were the most prosperous.Taking advantage of the current land price, it is a wise choice to start hoarding some land with surplus funds!

"Ha? What did you just say?" Laura was thinking about something, but was interrupted by Situ Nan, she looked at Situ Nan blankly."Stone, shall we build William University in Long Beach?"

Laura pointed to a topographic map of Long Beach and said.

Situ Nan shook his head and said: "The land here in Long Beach City is too small, and the port will expand, and the city will rise. There is not much room for expansion around it. It will become a convention and exhibition center and an industrial center in the future. The university is placed here in a small area. I have a large area in the northwest corner of Los Angeles near Hollywood. It turned out to be a ranch in Hengda, with a valley where we can build a school."

When talking about Hollywood, Situ Nan smiled and said: "When you come to Los Angeles, you must go to Hollywood to see it. When I have time, I will take you to visit and see how the movie is made."

Having said this, Situ Nan remembered the guy he met in Hollywood.I haven't seen each other for so long. I wonder if that guy has established his own film company?

"Okay! I want to see, those female stars are like this!" Laura said with interest.

Seeing Laura excitedly, Situ Nan nodded and said in his heart: "Are you okay? Rose!"

It turns out that Rose has now come to Hollywood before Situ Nan, and she is determined to become an actress.In New York, after managing a business of art collecting for Situ Nan, Rose felt tired and determined to live a wonderful life. She planned to try all the novelties so that she would not be disappointed. A man dedicated to him.

Situ Nan was very supportive of her decision, but it was a pity that the two of them had not been able to talk in detail at the engagement banquet, so Rose hurriedly left.Afterwards, Situ Nan knew that she had secretly ran to Hollywood.

Back in Los Angeles this time, Situ Nan wondered when to go to see Hollywood again.

Maybe it's not bad to play a movie company!

He thought.

"What are you thinking?" She smiled so proudly. Laura asked.

"It's nothing, just think of an old friend." Situ Nan replied.

Chapter 178 Los Angeles, My Site!

In another year, Los Angeles has become very different.

Situ Nan was sitting in the car and looking out from time to time. The streets became wider, more cars, more people, more shops on both sides of the street, more customers coming in and out, and people’s clothes seemed to be too Fashionable.

Many of the people who go shopping are women and children, and there are a lot less men. Situ Nan's impression of those Irish workers who are usually drunk and drunk by the side of the road does not know whether they are recruited into the factory or joined the army.

Situ Nan deliberately let the car go around Chinatown. In the past two years, the number of Chinese in Los Angeles has gradually increased. The only ones who can compare with them in number are Italians.There are also many more native Mexicans.

Chinese immigrants, Italian immigrants, and newly-born Mexicans constitute the fastest-growing race in Los Angeles. Together, they account for 70% of the total population of Los Angeles. In addition to the original white population, the proportion of the population has been reduced to less than 30%. Before gaining a firm foothold in politics, these whites can still maintain a certain political advantage.

What is gratifying to Situ Nan is that this advantage is gradually diminishing. The current population of Los Angeles is a bit similar to the mixed race of Situ Nan's previous life. No one has an absolute advantage. It is a real situation. The city of immigrants.

Industrial construction requires a large population. Local young people are recruited into the army, and foreign immigrants have become the welcome target of the local government. In order to speed up the construction of the city, Los Angeles officials temporarily resisted various racial discrimination laws.

The policemen who used to hang themselves on the street are too lazy to question new immigrants, so even Chinese and Italians without legal status dare to go to the streets generously.Of course, they are more willing to stay in streets they are familiar with, such as Chinatown.

Most of the immigrants have become urban construction workers. It is not unreasonable to describe them as migrant workers, because they are all bankrupt farmers in their hometowns. In order to survive, they had to travel across the ocean to Los Angeles.

In fact, educated immigrants or immigrants with skills are more popular, and they can generally find decent jobs.

Meihua Trading Company is doing a good job. Now this American Chinese-led company is the largest "trafficker" of Chinese immigrating to the United States. Every year, thousands of Chinese farmers come to California on the ships of Meihua Trading Company. Before entering American society formally, everyone has to receive a two-month training in a place where the American China Trading Company is located in a place where Chinese people live.Only then can we enter the factories and shops under the William Consortium.
