The Third Reich - Chapter 1793
This choice was placed in front of Roosevelt. Facing this improvement plan, Roosevelt was also dumbfounded.
Roosevelt longed for warships, but what he longed for was real warships, real aircraft carriers. In the original plan, a ring of engines was installed around it. Although it looked nondescript, it was still a warship after all. Now, it has become the ice that the battleship can drag. Chunk, what has become of that?
Roosevelt hesitated for a while, and before Roosevelt had made a choice, Treasury Secretary Morgenthau opened the door: “Mr. President, there is an emergency and we are in trouble.”
Morgenthau’s body carried a chill outside, and at the same time, his face was extremely severe: “The islanders used balloon bombs again, but this time, their bombs are our dollars!”
Dollars? Some people didn’t understand, Roosevelt knew what was going on: “Is it a forgery?”
…
San Francisco, the most famous city on the west coast of the United States.
It has now become a city that never sleeps.
Because it is located on the Pacific coast, it is temporarily a vacuum zone bombed by German bombers. In the past, the islanders occupied Midway Island. Long-range bombers may also be sent from Midway Island to make trouble. But now Midway Island has also been regained by the United States. The immediate danger is now.
Therefore, the shipbuilding industry here is almost in full swing. On the slipway, several aircraft carriers are being built at the same time and will soon be put into service.
The bright lights illuminate the shipyard as if it were daytime.
The veteran boatman Lockes is already sixty years old this year and has reached the age of retirement. However, after the United States was hit by Germany, he signed up again to participate in the construction of the warship.
At this time, he was holding a welding torch, welding the hull skillfully, sparks splashed everywhere, and a weld was smooth, round and full, which only the most experienced old welders could weld well.
Huge ships are welded in this electric spark.
Soon, the welding rod in his hand was burnt out, and Lockes put down the welding torch and took out a cigarette from his pocket.
Originally, the factory was disciplined and could not smoke while working. However, workers like Old Lockes came to dedicate the waste heat. He would not be said by the foreman even if he smoked a few mouthfuls. Sometimes, I will ask the foreman for one.
When the cigarette entered his lungs, Lockes felt a surge of excitement, and his exhaustion quickly disappeared. Over the years, he had just taken a sip.
Just after smoking a cigarette, he squeezed out the cigarette butt, and was about to continue working. At this moment, suddenly, he felt something falling over his head, so he quickly picked up his eyes and hands. Living.
Then, he opened his eyes and looked at it, and instantly, he was shocked.
This is a bill, a hundred dollars, and Washington above is smiling at him.
This is actually falling money from the sky? Locks was quite excited. He raised his head and looked up. Several people were welding at a position higher than himself.
Shipbuilding, similar to a builder, erected tall scaffolding, and then welded on it. Now, Lockes looked at the money in his hand, restrained the urge to put it back in his pocket, and shouted to it: “Hey, Any one of you lost a hundred dollars?”
Lost a hundred dollars? The person above shook his head, don’t be kidding, I don’t have five dollars in total in my pocket. If I come out to work, who brings so much money!
Wait, why do I have one at my own feet? The boatman above was immediately excited: “Who has lost money, who has lost money? Please have a drink!”
His voice was so loud that many people heard it. At this moment, suddenly, a person shouted with excitement, “Look, heaven!”
In the sky, a few banknotes are falling slowly, just like leaves, but in this season, the leaves should have fallen out long ago.
It was still a large one-hundred-dollar bill, which actually fell from the sky!
Going up, there is no scaffolding anymore, it is the dark sky. At this time, in the unfathomable night sky, it rained money?
“Do not!”
A person shouted loudly, the banknote was blown by the wind, and it went towards the sea. It fell into the sea and it was hard to find!
“Puff!” The boatman was quick-eyed and jumped directly. He swam forward strenuously. Finally, he picked up the banknote, held it in his hand, and kissed it. Dollars, I love you!
For the Los Angeles Shipyard, this is an unforgettable piece of water for them. They no longer have the intention to work, so they have been looking at the sky, hoping that the money falling from the sky will be picked up by them again~www.mtlnovel .com~ However, the rain of banknotes just fell once, and after waiting, there are no more banknotes.
At dawn, Lockes walked into the bar excitedly with a one-hundred dollar bill: “Boss, bring me a glass of whiskey, no, two!”
The boss is an acquaintance, looking at Locks, this guy rarely drinks.
“Why do you have two cups today? Is it picking up money?”
“Yes, brother, you are right, I picked up one hundred dollars! Many people in our shipyard have picked up money! There was a rain of banknotes last night!”
Money rain? The boss stared at Lockes: “You haven’t drunk yet? Just too much? How do you talk about drinking?”
“No, I didn’t lie to you.” Locks put one hundred dollars on the table: “Look, this is what I picked up yesterday, enough for me to drink well for a month.”
The boss took it carefully and observed it carefully, but he couldn’t see the problem. Is it really a dollar? How is that possible! Dollars fall in the sky. Could it be that the plane dropped it? I haven’t heard of any plane crash here!
This thing is really strange!
In the White House, Roosevelt’s face also became serious.
“After our careful comparison, the manufacturing level of these counterfeit coins is quite high. For the time being, we can only appraise them by our experts, and ordinary people do not have enough means to determine their authenticity.”
When I heard this, everyone’s complexion changed even more. In this case, the trouble would be big!
If the folks cannot distinguish counterfeit coins, these counterfeit coins can be used as real coins. As the counterfeit coins continue to circulate, terrible inflation will occur in the United States. The U.S. economy is already very deformed. After being hit by these counterfeit currencies, the economy may collapse!
The opponent punched his own weakness!
