In Manhattan's Chinatown, the restaurant of the Li Jie family was chartered again, this time it was not that the Li family had anything to celebrate, but that Harry paid for the entire restaurant. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Because there are more important things to do in this restaurant today.

Under the pretext of tasting dishes, Li Jie invited Tony and Peppard to dine here, and only Harry was invited except for Tony.

Among the excuses given by Li Jie, he had left the entire restaurant empty and only served Tony and the two tonight, while Harry had come in early in the morning in the car where he was shopping for ingredients.

Li Jay didn't want to leak the news of Harry's private meeting with Tony, and the leaders of the two megagroups met in private, which was enough to cause a storm on Wall Street.

In order to arrange this meeting, Li Jie also dismissed all the other employees in the restaurant, so that they all had a holiday today but their salaries were still paid.

When Tony came to the restaurant with Pepper in his car, Li Jie had been waiting at the door of the restaurant for a long time.

"Welcome, Miss Peppard and Mr. Stark. Li Jie opened the door for Peppon very gentlemanly.

"Thank you. Peibo smiled and returned the salute to Li Jie.

Peppard's status is no longer the same, and since Obaidia's death, Tony has given Peppel the responsibility of running Stark Industries.

Now that the woman has become a strong woman in the workplace, Time Magazine and Vanity Fair have used her as a cover character in special stories about Peppard.

"This is your family restaurant?" Tony looked at Mr?Li. The size of the restaurant looks pretty good, and it's a good location in Manhattan's Chinatown.

"Yes, thank you, Mr. Tony, for accepting my invitation. Li Jie nodded with a smile, pushed open the door of the restaurant and invited the two in.

"Oh, Jason should thank you for the invitation, have you finally decided to open a formal restaurant now?" said Peppard with a warm smile.

In fact, Pepper Peppard is very kind to people in general, and only when she is dealing with urgent matters or matters Tony, she will appear decisive and even a little ruthless.

"If you're really going to run a restaurant, I'm sure you'll get a Michelin rating very quickly, and I can even ask a Michelin foodie to send someone directly to you. “

As a woman who has already stood at the pinnacle of business, there is a domineering attitude in Peppard's words, a Michelin star that chefs all over the world dream of.

In her opinion, it is not difficult at all, of course, this is also because Li Jie's dishes conquer her and Tony's taste buds.

"Thank you, Miss Pepper, but at least now is not a good time. Li Jie shook his head and declined. Because he knows how busy he is.

Today, because there are special arrangements, the entire hall has been processed in advance, and many countertops have been removed to the side.

An open cooktop with all the ingredients in the middle of the lobby and, of course, a beautiful dining table for two.

Today, since Tony and Peppard were asked to try the dishes, it would probably be impossible to use Chinese food with a particularly large amount of smoke, because it would not be in line with today's purpose.

Because once you want to make Chinese food, then you will have to go into the back kitchen, so the future plan and Li Jie's preset talk will not be possible.

In addition to Li Jie's accident, there was only one neatly dressed and cleanly dressed waiter here, and in order to prevent his hair from falling into the dish, the waiter also brought a baseball cap.

"Looks like you're well prepared today. Tony nodded, and he strode to the table, where the waiter professionally pulled out a chair for him.

Then Pepp, who was a step too late, pulled out the chair, and Peppel smiled and said thank you.

"So, what did you prepare today? Do you have a menu?" asked Tony, looking at the empty table.

"Today's menu is all behind me. Li Jie pointed to the materials he had prepared. "All the main dishes and vegetables are here, so you can mix and match them as you like, and I will make the most suitable dish. ”

"It's not a small tone. Tony said, raising an eyebrow.

"It's a kind of confidence. Li Jie smiled and said.

Because Tony came by car, he didn't drink, and although Tony used to be an alcoholic, his self-control is much better now.

Li Jie made red venison, roasted mussels in white wine, Marseille fish soup, and hummus that Tony has loved since the last time he ate them. as well as some vegetables.

"I still think you should open a formal restaurant rather than a food truck. Tony had a mocktail in his hand that the waiter had just made, well, why could a mocktail be called a cocktail?

Tony's inner complaint was the same as when Li Jie drank it for the first time.

However, the taste of the concoction is not bad, and now the meal has reached the final dessert part, and Li Jie provides a rum wine-flavored cake.

Peppard loved the whole dessert, and she said as she took a sip of the cake with a special drink. "The drink is so well prepared that I think I should tip you in particular. ”

Peppard smiled at the waiter who had been serving her carefully, and said that she wanted to take out the US dollars from her wallet and pay it to the waiter.

The waiter who had been working with his head down glanced back at Li Jie, and Li Jie nodded.

"Thank you very much, Miss Pamper, you see my father kept saying I shouldn't do this, he thought it was a waste of time. The waiter smiled and took the tip that Peppel handed him.

At the same time, he also took off the hat he had been wearing on his head, and it was only then that Peppard could see the waiter's face clearly.

"Oh my God, it's you!" Pepp stood up in surprise.

He has beautiful blonde hair and a handsome and handsome face, but this is not what surprises Peppard, what really surprises him is the identity of this young boy.

Norman Osborne's son, who is also the new chairman of the Osborne Group, is a super-rich man worth hundreds of billions of dollars, and the helm of a mega-corporation that can almost go toe-to-toe with Stark Group.

And Tony finished a meal with his service, and he tipped? Oh my God! It's ridiculous, even Hollywood screenwriters can't write this kind of story.

"I seem to have seen you there. Tony looked at Harry's face with a thoughtful expression. Well, Tony has a poor memory for men, and he hasn't really dealt with Harry.

"Tony, this is the chairman of the Osborne Group, Mr. Harry Osborne. I'm sorry Mr. Osborne, and I'm sorry for the rude I just had. And sorry for your father's affairs,"

Peppard didn't despise Harry because of his age, and now Peppard knew that today's dinner might not be so simple.

She glanced at Li Jie with a vigilant look, and Li Jie immediately stood up, at this time, she had to explain things clearly, otherwise it would be self-defeating.

"I'm sorry both of you, but I arranged this informal meeting in the hope that the message would be a little more private. Li Jie stood up and explained.

"Harry is my friend, and I think everyone knows about what happened to the Osborne Group lately. ”

"Harry's situation is not easy right now, he doesn't even have someone he can trust to help take charge of the company, as a friend Harry needs my help, so I have arranged this dinner and I'm very sorry for both of you. ”

Li Jie said a little apologetically, he actually introduced it a bit of a trick, and Harry's situation now is very similar to Tony's back then.

It's the same as when his parents died when he was a teenager, leaving behind the burden of a super business, but it's different from Tony's years of wandering outside before recalling the burden on his body.

Harry was carrying the burden directly, and Harry didn't have Tony's excellent scientific intelligence, so he faced more problems.

So he wanted to arouse a little sympathy from Tony in this way, although it was said that there were no fathers and sons in the mall, but according to Li Jie's understanding of Tony, he knew that Tony was more emotional than rational outside of science.

"So you're going to ask the chairman of the Osborne Group to make a toast for us?" Tony said with a slight upset, but he didn't get up and leave immediately, which was a good sign that he was willing to stay and communicate.

"I don't think it's going to help him manage the company, especially since Stark and Osborne are still in competition. ”

"Not anymore, Mr. Stark. Harry spoke the language that had been organized as he had rehearsed with Lee.

"What does it mean that it won't be?" Rather than being uninhibited, Peppard is more sensitive to business smell.

Harry knew that the real key this time was Pepp, the real manager of Stark Group, so he opened his mouth to explain.

"At present, the most competitive areas between the Osborne Group and the Stark Group are military weapons and energy. ”

"The Osborne Group can exit the race for new energy. Harry said the lines that had been prepared.

This is the result of repeated analysis, although bioenergy is not powerless in the face of Stark's new energy, but it will also become unprofitable in the competition.

Rather than lingering in the future, it is better to abandon it now as a gesture of goodwill.

"What do you want?" said Pepp, who didn't believe there was a free lunch in the world.

"Stark Group's share in the field of weapons and customer base recommendation. Harry said. In exchange, Osborne will exchange its energy channels to Stark Group. ”

The young man didn't look like he looked like he was just a beautiful man, and the corners of Pepp's mouth were slightly upturned. Little did she know that behind Harry's back, there was a harmless-looking cook who was giving him advice.

"Is there a room for privacy, Jason? I'd like to have a good chat with Mr. Osborne. Pepp asked.

"Of course, there's a secure office on the second floor, and Harry knows where. Li Jie pointed upstairs.

"Tony, do you want to come along?" asked Pepp, who was sitting in his seat drinking a mocktail.

"No, you can make up your mind. "Tony has always had a lack of interest in business negotiations.

Pepp and Harry turned to go upstairs, a business meeting that was so intimate and could cause global financial volatility that the least known it could be.

Harry could trust Lee, but that didn't mean Pepp would be completely convinced.

"So that's what you're inviting me here for, to connect the Stark Group with the Osborne Group?" said Tony, glancing at Li Jie, who was cleaning up the stove.

"In a small Manhattan restaurant, two supergiants had a secret party arranged by you, and then the two supergiants made a secret deal. ”

"If you do succeed, what you do today will probably become a business legend. Tony put his glass on the table and said playfully.

"Are you really just a chef? Not a commercial espionage?"

"Of course, I'm a good cook, and everything else is just part-time. Li Jie made another mocktail for Tony.

Tony looked at Li Jie for a few moments before smiling and shaking his head.

When Peppard and Harry came downstairs with smiles on their faces, Li Jie already knew that the agreement between the two had probably been reached.

"Hope to have a good time working together in the future, Harry. Pepp shook Harry's hand and said goodbye before leaving.

Harry also shook hands with Tony, saying that in the future, Stark Group and Osborne Group will form a tacit understanding, and even a certain degree of strategic alliance.

Today's dinner was a success, and both gangs got what they wanted.

Harry wanted to stay and help Li Jie clean up, but was chased away by Li Jie. Harry was in a state of overexcitement right now.

It would be troublesome if you stay here and accidentally show your feet and be photographed, you must know that Tony is the most dazzling character in the spotlight, and I don't know how many paparazzi follow him.

"You'd better get out of here now, my car is at the corner of the road, don't let people recognize you. "Lee Kit gave Harry the keys to his used Ford.

Motioned for him to leave here from the back kitchen, with a bag of garbage and pretending to be off work.

When everyone left here, Li Jie looked at the somewhat empty restaurant and felt a little proud.

Who would have thought that today he had done such an important event, and the heads of two multinational groups would cooperate with him.

Moreover, such cooperation has far-reaching implications, and a giant strategic alliance has already taken shape.

When looking back at this story from a historical point of view one day, who would have thought that it was an unknown little chef who drove it all forward?

When Li Jie finished cleaning and was about to leave here, a somewhat familiar voice suddenly came out from behind him.

"Nightcrawler, the Supreme Mage wants to see you. (To be continued.) )
