Chapter Two Hundred and Three: this glass of wine and wish you all the best!

"So, thank you very much for your help, Director Nick. I really didn't expect you to be so talkative, worthy of being the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.D.!" Li Jie's sycophants slapped Nick hard as if he didn't want money.

Anyway, if you don't want money, why not do it? Nick just helped himself solve a big problem! If Nick doesn't agree to accept Bucky Barnes, then Li Jie really has to deal with the Winter Soldier a little more brain.

It's a very good thing for everyone to do things without spending money~!In addition, Li Jie still needs to trouble Nick to do another more troublesome thing later, so if you don't please him at this time, when will you wait?

Nick kept his face black the whole time, although he promised to accept Bucky Barnes (after all, he said before: I'll take care of the rest), after all, what he said can't be reversed!

Especially Nick Fury is still a very dignified person in a way. He still doesn't want to do this kind of thing, at least not so obviously.

Nick Fury, who was black-faced throughout the whole process, silently listened to Li Jie's praise, and he always felt that he had been fooled. They've been fooled, right?

But this kind of Nick can't retaliate and can't shirk, it's like clenching all his strength and preparing to punch, but he hit in the air. Nick felt a mouthful of old blood in his chest that barely spurted out.

In Nick Fury's case, what kind of face do you expect him to have on Lee Kit's ass?

And Li Jie seemed to know this very well, and he tried to make his tone as relaxed and pleasant as possible. However, Frank the Punisher didn't plan to cooperate with Li Jie's slap on Nick's ass.

The gin in the bottle in front of him had already been drunk. He was now going to find another bottle of good wine to come out. Speaking of which, Nick Fury has a pretty large collection of fine wines here. And a lot of it has a lot of origins.

These include the Rémy Martin brandy, which has been cellared for 65 years, and the wines made in 1982, the year of a bumper harvest and a very high quality of grapes. Ah, that's what most people call Lafite in '82. Of course, there are many other good things besides Château Lafite.

For example, the Bordeaux region produces wines from a few small wineries that are extremely scarce.

Someone who has been the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. for more than ten years is different, such a lavish collection of wine! Frank is actually very fond of Nick's treasure.

You must know that Frank the Punisher has few hobbies, and he has two things he enjoys the most in life, the first is cigars, and the second is fine wine.

Not a simple alcoholic, Frank is a wine taster who truly understands the three flavors of wine. It's just that his way of drinking is simple and rude, so many people think he's just a simple drunkard.

Nick's personal hobbies are similar to Frank's, and the two became good friends because they shared the same hobbies (wine and cigars) during the war in Vietnam.

Nick later joined S.H.I.E.L.D., and Frank joined the Marine Corps. However, although Frank has been promoted to lieutenant colonel, the position has always been that of an instructor.

Instructor is a very ordinary position, with little power and no high salary. Compared to Nick, who rose all the way to the first leader of S.H.I.E.L.D., and was completely a word in S.H.I.E.L.D. during his reign.

Nick has a lot of resources at his disposal, and he doesn't need to rely on corruption to satisfy Nick's personal drinking habits. As long as you find some shady rich villains or terrorists, their private wine collection will be confiscated by Nick. Anyway, no one will say anything at this point, the rules of this loot are turned a blind eye by the military and these special departments.

You must know that the 101st Battalion of the 506th Regiment of the 2nd Airborne Division found the country house of the German Air Force Commander Goering, which contained more than 10,000 bottles of fine wine found from all over the world. Winster, the battalion commander at the time, waved his hand, and a company came to pull a truckload and everyone divided it. This divides all the fine wine that Goering has spent decades accumulating. (Note 1)

Nick's collection is not as good as Goering's, but there are quite a few good goods. For example, the bottle Frank is holding in his hand now, the green bottle looks very old, and the label attached to the bottle is blurred.

The bottle is corked tightly with an oak stopper, and not a single breath of air will run inside. This bottle of wine is quite old just by looking at its appearance, and the amount of wine in it is not much. Frank's visual inspection was only about two hundred milliliters, less than three hundred milliliters. That's about three cups at most.

It's a top-notch bottle of cognac that Nick has bragged about many times in front of Frank. It's a show-off between wine lovers, and Frank has long wanted to drink it. But Nick kept refusing to let it.

"Do you know the history of this bottle?" and you want to drink it?" Nick vetoed more than once, saying that Frank opened the wine and drank it

of proposals. He said, "This is a bottle of wine with a lot of history and a story! Do you know who owns this bottle?"

Frank shook his head, and Nick said with some smugness, "Napoleon! It was the best cognac made in France at that time, and do you know how much work I put into getting this bottle?" (Note 2)

Frank touched his cheek: "I don't think it's a good phenomenon for a blind person to discriminate against a short person, you will form a terrible chain of discrimination like this." "I can't drink it anyway, and Frank doesn't mind stabbing Nick.

Nick gave Frank a deep look, then put the bottle back in the wine cabinet and locked it. Pinpeng~!Nick also made a loud noise.

For Frank, every time he comes to Nick for a drink, he inevitably gets to be watched by Nick, and he tries to steal the wine several times without success. Taking advantage of the fact that Li Jie was talking to Nick and caught his attention, Frank quietly stole the top cognac he had been eyeing for a long time.

And three new cups were prepared, and three ice cubes were added to each quilt. The amber liquor is poured into the crystal glass, and the light is refracted like gold.

"It's beautiful. Frank was intoxicated, and the aroma of the wine was evident at the beginning.

Just as Jack and Nick confessed that he had inadvertently learned about the Inhumans and Magneto's global human mutant plan, Nick's face became darker and darker. Both of them smelled the aroma of wine.

Nick was stunned by the news brought by Li Kit today, and he couldn't tell for a moment that the aroma of this wine was his reserve cognac. But then again, even if he sniffed closely, he couldn't tell the difference. Because he didn't even open the cork and smell the wine.

Just when Li Jie and Nick were chatting about the topic, and the atmosphere was a little stiff, Frank walked over with a wine glass: "Actually, there is nothing that can't be solved, don't make the atmosphere very serious and stiff." Relax a little and have a good glass of wine. We wish us all the best for our plans. ”

Nick took the wine glass from Frank and his face stiffened, "Are you using my good wine to please me?"

Frank waved his hand: "The use of wine is to drink, not for you to put here to see." These wines only make sense if they are enjoyed by the stomach and mouth. ”

Li Jie also took the wine glass handed by Frank, and the wine was a little underestimated, only about one or two. He raised his glass to Nick and said, "Then the matter about the Inhumans needs to trouble the Director." ”

Nick Leather nodded expressionlessly. Now that this is the case, what else can I do?

The unique fruity aroma of cognac permeates the mouth, and you can smell a subtle fruity aroma when you take a deep breath. Nick was a little surprised: "Wait, this bottle of wine doesn't seem to be the same, where did you get it from?" Nick suddenly had a bad premonition, and he asked Frank.

Frank followed the standard steps of tasting cognac, first looked and then smelled, and after a small sip, he said: "Oh, your treasure, that bottle of Napoleonic wine that you blew out." ”

Li Jie took a small sip of the cognac in the glass, although he rarely drank and was not good at drinking. But the mellow flavor is still amazing. However, Li Jie noticed that Nick's hanging hand in front of him was clenched into a fist and then released, and then clenched again. It's as if he's enduring something.

Frank didn't care that Nick's murderous eyes were staring at him, it was just a bottle of wine. He's not Nick's collector, and good wine is best in the stomach.

Frank took a sip of his wine and asked Nick, "By the way, you said before that this bottle was drunk by Napoleon before a decisive battle, which one?

Nick's tone was cold: "It's Waterloo." ”

Burst~!

Note 1: The story of the 101st Airborne Division moving wine is from "Band of Brothers", but "Band of Brothers" itself is from Colonel Winster's personal war memoir, so the story is true and believable.

Note 2: Can a bottle of wine be put from the Napoleonic period to the present? It should be, because in the BBC documentary "Top Luxury" (which seems to be the name), a private bar in London has a bottle of Napoleonic cognac. The remaining amount is about two cups.

A wealthy Russian businessman paid about 35,000 euros to drink. In addition, during World War I and World War II, the Allied war rations on the European front included a food called "British Canned Corned Beef".

Many of them were produced during the Napoleonic Wars. And from that time to the First World War and the Second World War were not bad and can be eaten. I think that canned beef without added preservatives (no preservatives were invented at the time) could be left out for so long, so even more so wine.
