Chapter 120: Joining the American Team for the First Time (Asking for Votes)
Marvel World, the United States, the cold winter season.
In a coastal city in North Carolina on the eastern continent, Xiao Zhen's figure strolls on the streets of the city with a strong atmosphere of war, people are in a hurry, the atmosphere is tense, he looks at the war propaganda posters on the street, and sighs a little, is this the United States during World War II?
War, and it's a world war, I didn't expect to be able to experience this atmosphere for myself.
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, dear sir, do you want a newspaper? Just five cents. A young man in his early teens hung a stack of newspapers on his left arm, holding a copy in his right hand and waving it and shouting loudly among the pedestrians on the street.
Xiao Zhen has just entered this Marvel world, and he doesn't have the dollars of this period, maybe this little guy in front of him can help him?
"Little one, it's okay to buy your newspaper, but you'll have to do me a favor." Xiao Zhen is actually a little out of place with this city, the clothes on his body are from modern society, walking in this city, it is very eye-catching, he knows that there are a lot of strongmen in the Marvel world, not to mention those super powerhouses in the universe, on the earth alone, there are many superheroes, although it is still early, most superheroes have not yet been born, but now S.H.I.E.L.D. has begun to create, and Hydra Hydra has been created, and with the German army's war horn, Across the world.
What he is desperate to do now is first to integrate into the world, and then to pursue his own interests without anyone noticing.
The Cosmic Rubik's Cube, in fact, is a space gem, and it has almost unlimited power, so it's no wonder that the shuttle wants this thing, and it wants it too.
The Six Infinity Stones: Time, Space, Soul, Mind, Reality, Power.
Xiao Zhen understands that as long as he can collect all six gems, he basically has the power to cross the universe, and as long as he doesn't encounter the five gods of the Marvel Universe, basically no one will be his opponent.
But he also understood that with his current strength, it was 100% impossible to collect all the gems, even if it was the easiest space gem to obtain now, he had to wrestle with the Hydra.
Part of the Infinity Stones is not on Earth yet, and he has to go to the universe to find it, and now his strength does not have the ability to enter the universe to snatch food from the mouths of those super powerhouses.
Universe... This is the Marvel movie world, whether the five gods will appear or not is another matter.
"Sir, do you have a tip?" The young man's face was freckled, but his smart blue eyes were cunning.
"Of course there is a tip." Xiao Zhen smiled slightly.
"So, sir, is there anything I can do to help you?" The boy asked.
"Take me to the nearest bank." He was not familiar with this city, he had just walked on the streets for half a day and had not found a bank, and he had a lot of gold and silver with him, but although these yellow and white things could be used directly, it was more troublesome, and it was more convenient to exchange them for dollars.
"Oh, it's easy, please follow me, sir."
The young man led the way in front, walked the streets and alleys with Xiao Scar, went around a big circle, he was already dazzled, and finally came to a bustling street, there are no street vendors with street stalls, and there are more shops on the street, most of which are high-end stores, and the items sold are mainly luxury goods.
The young man pointed to a tall and luxurious building and said, "Look, sir, that's the bank." ”
"Oh, come with me, little one, there's something to trouble you later, trust me, the tip is yours." Xiao Zhen touched the young man's pale yellow hair, smiled slightly, and walked to the opposite bank.
Before entering the bank, Xiao Zhen took a few gold bars from the storage space and put them in his pocket, and then walked into the bank, the boy followed, Xiao Zhen promised the tip to attract him, the children of the war years, sensible early, like him in his early tens, came out to sell newspaper milk, and even went to work in the factory.
After entering the bank, he seemed to see the extraordinary temperament of Xiao Zhen, and a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes in the bank walked over and said with a smile: "Hello sir, may I ask how I can help you?" ”
Xiao Zhen raised his eyes and saw that this middle-aged man was neatly dressed, with a smooth and slippery big back, and a round-framed black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, which looked very polite and polite.
"I have something that needs to be exchanged, and I hope your bank can help me solve the problem." As he spoke, he dug it out of his pocket without a trace, and the appearance of yellow metal flashed, and the man with the big back was shocked, if the banker saw this thing and didn't understand it, it would be blind to him.
"Oh, noble sir, please come with me?" The man with the big back was even more polite, this is a big customer, gold, it is hard currency in any period, let alone in times of war.
In times of war, paper money is more likely to depreciate, and on the contrary, the more precious the hard currency of gold and silver, everyone understands.
Xiao Zhen followed the man with the big back to the counter behind the bank, he was not afraid that the bank would be black, first, the artist would be bold, and second, such a little gold would make such a big bank pull down its face to deal with him, then the American banking industry would be finished.
After coming to the counter, at the signal of the man with the big back, Xiao Zhen took out four gold bars in his pocket, each gold bar is one kilogram, and four gold bars are four kilograms, that is, four kilograms.
The price of gold in this era, because of the two world wars, has increased many times, and four kilograms of gold have been exchanged for nearly two million dollars.
Four kilograms of gold in modern society, about more than one million RMB, but in this era, it is worth nearly two million US dollars, and the purchasing power of money in the two eras is different, and the value of these two million US dollars is at least 20 million real-world RMB purchasing power.
Xiao Zhen picked up the box of dollars that he was about to give him, walked out of the bank with a smile, and walked over when he saw the young man waiting uneasily at the door.
"Sir, are your business done?" The boy asked, looking up.
"Yes, now find a place to eat and then, I'll tip you." Xiao Zhen suddenly saw a nice coffee shop across the street, and took the lead in that direction.
The boy followed, but looked at this high-end coffee shop a little cramped, obviously, the boy's family situation was not good, and he had never been to a place of this grade before.
After entering the coffee shop, Xiao Zhen sat down in a window seat, turned his head to the young man standing uneasily beside him, and said, "Sit down, give me a newspaper." ”
"Yes sir." The young man walked to the opposite side and sat down, but his body was stiff and he didn't dare to be casual, and when he heard Xiao Zhen's words, he immediately handed over a newspaper.
Xiao Zhen took the newspaper, but put it on the table, he first put the suitcase in his hand on the table, clicked open, revealing a whole box full of green bills, the young man on the opposite side stared at the boss, he was already stunned, where did a poor young man like him see so much money?
Xiao Zhen took out one of the stacks of 10,000 yuan and put it on the table, then covered the box and put it on the ground casually, raised his hand and took out a 100 dollar from the 10,000 yuan and handed it to the young man opposite: "Well, this is the money to buy the newspaper, and the rest is a tip." ”
