West 32nd Street, Manhattan Island.

Lee's handicraft shop.

Li Mo and his only employee, Lucas Jr., are cleaning up.

Little Lucas is not a slacker, he is diligent with his hands and feet. And Li Mo is not accustomed to commanding people's character. The two worked together, and in a short time, the store was clean and tidy.

Li Mo threw a bottle of Coke to little Lucas, while he made a pot of Pu'er tea and drank it leisurely.

“boss！” After taking a sip of Coke, little Lucas suddenly asked with a little excitement, "Did you see Iron Man that night?" ”

Li Mo took a sip of tea expressionlessly, glanced at little Lucas, and said leisurely: "Well, I saw it, a tin man was beaten very badly!" Why, is it possible that you also have a superhero dream? ”

Without waiting for little Lucas to answer, Li Mo continued: "Actually, it's not impossible to become a superhero! ”

Seeing Little Lucas's disbelieving expression, Li Mo didn't care, and continued to talk nonsense: "Rich people rely on technology, such as Tony Stark. And the poor can play with mutations at all! Find a weird insect to bite you, or inject some messy chemicals, etc., there is a certain chance of generating superpowers! ”

"Of course, there is a certain risk, such as becoming something like snot."

Little Lucas was a little disgusted.

"Or become a fly man, with big compound eyes, and rotten flesh!"

Little Lucas felt something rush up his throat.

"Or maybe the head is like one avocado drying another rotten avocado!"

Little Lucas couldn't stand it anymore, "Oh, shit! Boss, please stop saying it again, it's disgusting! This hapless superhero who wants to be who should go! ”

After expressing his dissatisfaction for a while, little Lucas suddenly sighed, "Boss, you know that I envy me the most, Tony. Stark anything? ”

Li Mo: "Well, what do you envy him?" ”

"He actually slept all over Playboy magazine's cover girls for all the months of the year!" Little Lucas's expression suddenly became a little lewd.

Li Mo immediately became serious: "To be precise, not all of them!" Because in March he happened to have something, but in December he was a twin! ”

Both of them were a little fascinated, and their faces unconsciously showed an idiot expression......

A lady in a trench coat walked into the store curiously, but was startled when she saw the expressions of the two and immediately turned and walked out.

After a long period of obscenity, little Lucas said jealously: "Beast! ”

Li Mo: "Hooligans! ”

Lucas Jr.: "He must be very weak!" ”

Li Mo: "Severe kidney deficiency!" ”

Lucas Jr.: "You're weaker than the boss!" ”

Li Mo: "That's right...... Wrong! Which eye do you see I'm empty! ”

Little Lucas was a little aggrieved: "Selena told me, she said that you have a short time and no power every time. She didn't want to lose you, an old customer, so she had to pretend to cooperate! ”

Li Mo squirted a sip of tea: "Who else did she talk to?" ”

Lucas Jr.: "Daddy Bruce, Eugene, Mrs. Mary, Fernandos......"

Li Mo: "Just say that there is no one else on this street who doesn't know!" ”

Lucas Jr.: "Let me think about it...... Carter ran away, so I don't know...... And also...... Boss, I really can't think of it! ”

Li Mo only felt a breath of evil air surging up in his chest, look at what you have done!

A good black guy doesn't play hip-hop, and you have been educated to become a China expert, and even TM kidney deficiency knows!

What's more serious is that the situation of body deficiency and weakness is known all over the street!

No way! This pot says nothing and doesn't carry it! Li Mo secretly made up his mind that he must have a discussion with Selena another day, for the glory of men!

…………

Time in small talk always flies a little quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it is already noon. In the morning, Lee's handicraft shop has only one business: a handicraft fan, worth $8!

Li Mo shook his head, how strange it is that this small shop can survive to this day!

However, the development of the small shop is no longer an imminent problem after receiving $300,000 in compensation.

Now the most important thing is that Uncle is hungry!

With Li Mo's temperament, if there is one thing that makes him the most unbearable after coming to this world, it is in terms of diet!

After waking up, he was hospitalized for more than ten days, and the various pasty nutritious meals and vegetable salads provided by the hospital were no different from the pig food he remembered feeding pigs in the countryside.

Moreover, Americans have different eating habits from Chinese, their breakfast and dinner are the main meal, lunch is usually not taken seriously, just deal with it and pass.

These office workers in New York are even worse, Li Mo saw the male nurse West, a 1.9 meter white man, in the hospital, and his daily lunch is a cup of coffee and a slice of bread!

Li Mo felt panicked!

And the burgers and sandwiches are all cold! All of this left him with a bit of a breakdown, and as the best of the big foodies, his stomach desperately needed a hot, fragrant Chinese meal to soothe his scars.

I have the heart to order a Chinese takeaway, but not far from Thomas. The strange smell of Lin's Chinese restaurant food made him dismiss this idea directly.

You might be able to eat authentic Chinese food in Chinatown, but that's on the Lower East Side, with the traffic of Manhattan today......

Shaking his head, Li Mo walked directly to the kitchen on the second floor, and he decided to do it himself. Because of his hobby, coupled with his ex-wife's inability to cook, he has developed good cooking skills and will never go hungry anywhere.

When I opened the refrigerator, a rancid smell came out directly. Li Mo covered his nose and threw the moldy half of the pizza, the stinky canned sardines, and the expired bread, milk and beer into the black plastic bag.

My predecessor didn't know how to cook, and I have been living on all kinds of junk food, plus I watched the store during the day and worked at night, and the kitchen stove has not been used for a long time. Li Mo had no choice but to clean up.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and an artifact fell into his sight: a rolling pin used by his previous mother!

Rolling pin in hand, I have it in the world!

How to cook an authentic Chinese meal without Chinese spices? Chef Li can tell you the answer: hand-rolled noodles with tomatoes and eggs!

"Little Lucas, little Lucas!" Li Mo staggered downstairs and found his employee munching on a hamburger.

"Throw this piece of!" Li Mo snatched the hamburger, threw it into the trash, and said urgently: "Quick, go buy three catties of flour, as well as tomatoes and eggs!" Remember not to make bread with that flour! ”

Little Lucas was a little helpless, and the boss seemed to have completely changed after he came back, but for the sake of the dollars in his hand, he still ran out quickly.

Place is a bit far away, little Lucas ran two blocks to buy everything. After coming back, Li Mo, who had already cleaned up the stove, snatched it up.

Kneading dough, resting, scrambled eggs, boiling sauce...

Under the surprised gaze of little Lucas, Li Mo rolled out the dough big and round. Fold it, cut it with a knife, spread it out, underneath it, remove it from the pan and pour the marinade.

Two bowls of hot tomatoes and eggs hand-rolled noodles!

Li Mo didn't care about speaking, took out his chopsticks and ate them. Of course, little Lucas, who often eats Chinese takeaway, also uses chopsticks, carefully picks up a chopstick and tastes it, his eyes light up, and he also eats it in a big gulp.

The noodles should be eaten in a big gulp and make a snorting sound! It took less than five minutes for the two of them to have an empty bowl in front of them.

Li Mo felt physically and mentally satisfied, and all kinds of unpleasantness after coming to the Marvel world were swept away, and the sky of New York became lovely......

Lighting a cigarette, Li Mo narrowed his eyes comfortably.

Little Lucas smacked his lips, seemed to be still savoring, and said flatteringly: "Boss, your cooking skills can catch up with a three-star chef!" It turns out that Thomas. What Lin does is not Chinese food at all! Why don't you open a Chinese restaurant and make money! ”

Li Mo rolled his eyes: "Have you ever eaten a meal cooked by a three-star chef?" And I'm not interested in serving! Have you eaten enough? Go and see the store! If you want to get a partner, deduct five dollars a day from your salary! ”

"Miser! Grande! ......" little Lucas walked down the stairs indignantly.

Li Mo doesn't care, he finally has the first employee in his two lives, how can he reflect the blood and tears of capitalist society without oppression.

I made a pot of tea, turned on the TV and watched the news casually.

"An elderly man in Milwaukee developed gamma poisoning symptoms after drinking a guarana drink from Brazil..."

"Harlem police have seized a shipment of arms from Hammer Industries. Knight claims to be related to the local Viper Gang..."

"The Osborne Group will hold a press conference to announce the latest progress in biogenetic engineering..."

"The RAND Group announced that it will reach a series of cooperation intentions with the Japanese consortium......"

Something seems to be going to happen, but whatever! The Avengers and the aliens in New York before the war, buy a high insurance policy and go to hide somewhere else for a while...

Li Mo is not a complete Marvel fan, he has watched all movies and TV series, and the specific plot has long been forgotten.

The two eyelids fought, turned off the TV, climbed into bed, and fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already dark.

closed the door and beckoned little Lucas to go to Fernandos's barbecue restaurant for an authentic Brazilian barbecue.

When parting, little Lucas's expression was a little serious: "Boss, don't go to deliver food at night during this time!" The streets have been a bit rough lately! ”

Li Mo patted little Lucas on the shoulder: "Don't worry! Your boss, I will never work for anyone else again! You also stay safe! ”

Saying goodbye to little Lucas, Li Mo returned home. After closing the roller shutter and inspecting all the doors and windows, I went to the second floor.

He moved a chair and sat on the balcony, opened a bottle of beer, lit a cigarette, and did not turn on the light, he silently looked out the window.

Manhattan at night has a different scenery, under the light of the dusk street lamps, the old buildings of the last century seem to be silently telling countless Pei Huan clutches, and the lights of the Empire State Building in the distance are shining like stars......

Li Mo shook his head, leaving the bit of confusion in his heart behind. If it comes, it will be safe, what else can it do?

Stretching out his right hand, a transparent vine slowly emerged from his fingertip, emitting a silvery-white shimmer in the darkness, swaying gently like seaweed.

"Is this a golden finger? What the hell am I now? ”
