Chapter Seventy-Three: Brothers
When Li Ji woke up and saw the gifts in the Christmas stockings, he couldn't cry or laugh.
The Christmas stocking contains a carefully packed box with the Stark Industries logo painted on it. Opening the box, Li Ji saw that it was a beautifully made watch, the time had been calibrated very accurately, the watch could display the year, month and day of the Gregorian calendar, and even convert it into the Chinese lunar calendar.
On the back of the watch, Tony's signature is engraved on it by ultra-micro electroplating, and in the center of Tony's "o", Tony's cartoon avatar is also drawn.
These are not the point, the point is that there is another layer under the watch box, a very thin layer, but it is worth ten thousand gold! There were two sheets of paper inside, one was a purchase contract, and the purchase was for a large private airliner!
That's right, Tony sent Li Ji a plane, and the piece of paper below is a letter handwritten by Tony, to the effect that I hope you prefer the watch I made for you more than an airplane, and the plane will be delivered in a few months, and when the delivery is completed, you can hand it over to Stark Industries to make it more powerful than Warren's plane.
Li Ji touched his forehead a little helplessly, Tony probably got the news from Warren and learned that he had borrowed Warren's private jet twice, so he directly placed an order for Li Ji for an airplane. And the delivery date is so close, it can only mean that this is Tony's plane that grabbed the order.
Aircraft deliveries generally come in two forms, generally the order is placed first, and then the aircraft manufacturer starts manufacturing, and the delivery is carried out within three to six years. The passenger aircraft purchased in this form is relatively cheap, and it is generally 3-4% of the manufacturing trademark price. There is also a rush to order, you pay the full amount, or even more, you can take the fastest aircraft from the aircraft factory, this aircraft is often ordered by other customers, but you grab it from their hands, the aircraft manufacturer delays the delivery of other customers, and the priority is to serve you.
Li Ji didn't know how many dollars Tony spent, but this plane is currently the largest passenger aircraft model, and the price tag given by the aircraft manufacturer is $285 million, and Tony's actual cost will only be more than that, not less.
"Does that mean you want to reconcile with me?" To be honest, Li Ji feels that the way he gets along with Tony now is just right, not too intimate, and not too distant. Although Li Ji has integrated into the Marvel world, he is an alien after all, and there is always an emotional estrangement.
And the Saiyans are also relatively indifferent emotionally, and Li Ji seems to have been affected a little. He knows who he cares about, but he often doesn't care too much, in fact, Tony is very similar to Li Ji when he is his current age. He loved his parents deeply, but he often behaved to be annoying to them.
Li Ji got up from the bed, washed up a little, and walked downstairs. Pep had woken up, and she greeted enthusiastically, "Morning, Gage." Merry Christmas. ”
"Morning, Pep, Merry Christmas." Li Ji beckoned.
"Where's Tony, haven't you gotten up yet?" Li Ji took a piece of Italian crepes on the table and took a bite, the faint vanilla taste was very delicious.
"Tony in the basement, you know, he's a research maniac, and he's uncomfortable for a day without R&D." Pep laughed.
Li Ji nodded and walked to the basement, where Jarvis had built a model of the plane, which was the one Tony gave to Li Ji, and Tony was rarely wearing eyes and thinking about the transformation plan, not even noticing Li Ji's arrival.
"Hey, Gage, why are you here, don't you never go into the lab?" Li Ji stood next to Tony, and Tony discovered Li Ji and hurriedly closed the model analysis.
"Is this the modification of the plane that was sent to me?" Li Ji's question was like a sharp blade, straight into Tony's heart. Tony didn't know how to answer this embarrassing question.
"If you don't want to go back, you won't answer." Li Ji leaned against a wall pillar and looked at Tony with interest.
"Hey, listen, you've got to be respectful to me. When Congress goes to work, I will definitely ask Congress to add a clause to the constitution that my brother must respect my brother. Tony's nervous hands trembled a little, but he still tried his best to maintain his dignity as an older brother.
"Okay, brother." Li Ji smiled, Tony was about to continue to speak, but at this time, he couldn't say a word.
"What do you say? You repeat? Tony was a little skeptical that he was hallucinating.
"Brother, are you helping me design an aircraft modification plan?" Li Ji asked again.
Tony kept pacing, as if he was a little excited and fidgeting, and after a long time, he said, "Yes, I didn't expect you to find the layer under the box so quickly." ”
Li Ji smiled, Tony's industrial design ability is very strong, but the ability of this gift box packaging is really not flattering, so obvious bulge, fools can find it.
"Besides, you still call me Tony, how to say it, you call me brother, I'm very happy, but, um, I mean but, I always feel weird, you've called me Tony for more than ten years, and suddenly called me brother, well, I'm a little excited, but it's also a little difficult to adapt......" As soon as Tony is excited, he will speak like this, he has too many things in his head, and it is easy to connect them when he is excited, making him a little incoherent.
"Got it, Tony." Li Ji sat down.
Hearing Li Ji change his words again, Tony stopped his steps, sat next to Li Ji, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, this feeling is Gage. Stark's feeling! Although you don't have the genes of our Stark family, you have inherited the stinky temper of our Stark family. ”
"What is a stinky temper, is a little tsundere a stinky temper?" Li Ji's eyes were full of smiles when he looked at Tony, you know, Tony. Stark is the most tsundere.
"Yes, it's a stinky temper, Howard's temper stinks, your temper stinks, and my temper stinks!" Tony did not shy away from admitting his shortcomings, "But it stinks, it stinks, anyway, our family, no matter how bad our temper is, we don't have to worry about having no object." ”
Tony was talking about him and Howard, both of whom were famous playboys, and Lee was not one of them.
"Oh, I almost forgot, you haven't a partner yet, it's a shame for our family, you know, I had a girlfriend when I was nine years old!" Tony's voice suddenly lowered a lot, not at all in line with his style.
"Pep, Tony said he got a girlfriend when he was nine years old!" Li Ji suddenly shouted, so frightened that Tony quickly covered his mouth.
When Pep heard Li Ji's words, he shook his head secretly: "Who doesn't know? ”
