Chapter 130 The Paradox of Theseus(1/2)
"Hey, kid, come here, uncle will treat you to some meat~"
Tony held a skewer of barbecue and greeted the drooling girl at the door. However, the next second, the girl was like a frightened little rabbit.
He ran away in a bound.
Tony didn't chase him, and returned to the dining table depressedly, "Am I so scary when I grow up? I can actually scare a five-year-old child, but I still think I'm a handsome guy."
Roger picked up the beer and drank half the bottle. After the battle, he always wanted to reward himself, so he took Tony, who had been so sauced all the time, to a barbecue restaurant in the city to have skewers.
After drinking leisurely,
Then he said slowly,
"It's not you she's afraid of, but the demon of war..."
Tony has a high IQ, and although his emotional intelligence is not the highest, he gets into trouble everywhere, but he understands some things instantly. It's just that his career as a playboy has created his bohemian personality, which offends people everywhere.
As soon as he heard Roger's words, he understood what he meant. The warlords' melee here was caused by the capital behind him.
Capital drives the United States and launches war. In the final analysis, it is him, he is capital.
His company is the largest arms company. Even if he has not indicated that he wants to go to war, the greed of capital will promote the war, because only then will there be opportunities to sell arms.
Even to myself...
Tony looked down at the reactor on his chest. This was the missile he invented, a gift left to himself.
Tony felt depressed for a moment, and then said firmly to Roger, "When I go back, I will definitely close Stark's weapons survival department."
Roger picked up the barbecue, walked to the door, and showed it to the girl with a small head. The girl saw that this time it was a yellow man, so she timidly took over.
Roger touched the little girl's head, then returned to the shop, returned to the dining table, and continued drinking and having sex.
"You know, the reason why they wander around like this and pick up rags is because they have no money, no income, and can't afford to read."
Tony said sadly,
"After I go back,
Will find ways to help countries affected by war,
Cover the school,
How much can be covered?"
"This is my little compensation. Because of this encounter, I realized how much disaster weapons have caused to the world."
Roger picked up a large skewer of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, "It's up to you. Anyway, human nature will not change, either internally or externally. I hope you can get the spaceship out, and then humans will walk out of the earth.
Without crowding one planet, there wouldn't be so many wars."
Tony was stunned for a moment, "I didn't expect you to think of something like walking out of the earth. It seems that my vision is still small and I can't see as far as you. However, the difficulty of spaceships is too high. Even I can't make it, because
Industry is a whole, from screws to alloys to fuels, it's very complex."
"Don't worry, a lot of spaceships will be sent to you soon for you to study."
Tony: "............"
The two of them had eaten and drank enough, and after paying the bill, they began to retreat. This time Roger planned to fly back with Tony to save on air tickets.
At the same time, I don't want him to have another accident. It's one thing that I can't get the money. The main reason is that if he dies, who will snap his fingers in the future? I don't want to die young.
On the plane, Roger suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I forgot one thing. One of the conditions for me to rescue you is that there is an Ark reactor."
Tony said in surprise, "You want that large reactor in Stark Tower? What do you want that thing for?"
Roger waved his hand, "Don't worry about this, just say yes."
Tony thought silently for a moment and flatly refused, "I'm sorry, although you saved me, but it's really not possible. I can give you a reactor as small as my chest, but the one in Stark Tower is too big. If it is used by someone with a heart,
Used for evil, it can blow up half a city like a nuclear bomb."
Half a city? Are you kidding me? Roger remembered that in the movie, it was just the glass of a building that was blown up. However, considering the difference between the movie and reality, it can supply the energy of the building for decades, so blowing up half the city is still a big problem.
It's really possible.
But this is what Roger expected. If you don't want to, forget it. Anyway, you are not the only one who can build a reactor...
Seeing that Roger was silent, Tony also felt a little embarrassed. He said this to his savior, "I have a lot of ideas. This time I will improve the Mark series when I go back. By then, I will create a more advanced Mark armor.
And then use it to protect peace..."
"I will not sell any weapons that harm humanity, so I'm sorry, I can't give you that large reactor, but if you need help with anything else, just ask, and I will do whatever I can."
Roger rolled his eyes. It's good if you can protect yourself. Besides money, is there anything else you can do to help me...
After getting off the plane, as soon as he walked to the airport, Little Pepper rushed over to him, and the two hugged each other tightly.
"Tony, thank God, you're fine." Pepper said happily.
"Yes, thanks... um? Where are the others? The one who was here just now." Tony turned his head, and Roger, who was beside him just now, had disappeared.
"Forget it, go back first and help me arrange a press conference at Stark Tower. I have something to announce. By the way, Happy, help me buy a hamburger."
In fact, the media got the news when Tony got off the airport. Then he said that he would hold a press conference in Stark Tower, which immediately caused many media to gather together.
Boom~
After the door opened, what came in was not a playboy in a smart suit, but Tony, who looked like a refugee, wearing tattered clothes, rough skin, and obvious muscle lines.
Holding a hamburger with the last bite left in his hand, he walked towards the microphone regardless of his appearance.
A group of reporters crowded up to interview him, all extremely curious about his experience.
"Mr. Stark, may I ask if you have been abused?"
"I heard that you were kidnapped for the second time. Is the attack on the base related to you?"
"Excuse me, Mr. Stark, why are so many people in the base dead, but you are the only one in the dimension who is not dead?!"
Tony directly ignored the last reporter's question, picked up the microphone, was silent for a moment, and said, "Everyone, I have decided to close the Stark weapons department from today on. From now on, Stark Industries will no longer sell arms."
Wow~
Many reporters immediately started shouting in disbelief.
Because Stark Industries is an arms company, if you say it shuts down arms, what will they sell? This is the same as Apple not selling Apple.
You have so many employees, how are you going to support them if you don't sell arms, or just go bankrupt? There has never been a rich man in the world who suddenly said, I quit, I want my company to close down.
All of a sudden, all the reporters became excited and gathered around him to ask him if he had really decided to close the weapons department.
His uncle Obadiah Stane hurried over and explained that Tony was too tired and confused.
After the press conference, Obadiah Stan had a gloomy look on his face. Because Tony had the absolute controlling interest and the largest share, if he wanted to close the weapons department, he could really close it.
But will he let Tony do this? You have to know that the two of them are the only blood relatives. If Tony dies, wouldn't Stark be his?
As for inheritance tax, he is not worried. The rich have their own ways to avoid it.

"Pinocchio? What are you doing??" Roger roared.
As soon as he returned to the warehouse, Roger found that the puppet man was doing carpentry and seemed to want to make himself bigger?
There were sawdust everywhere, as well as saws, hammers and other tools.
There are a lot of wood around, as well as some arms, thighs and the like.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a puppet man pretending to be one of his arms. When he saw Roger, he jumped away and hid in a corner.
It looks like it's a lot bigger. Could it be that everything has been changed?
Roger looked at the ground. There was a head, a body, hands and feet, all of which were replaced by it before...
Roger touched his chin, "What will happen if I reinstall the body it replaced?"
I remember there was an experiment called the Ship of Theseus (also translated as the Ship of Theseus), also known as the Paradox of Theseus. It was very interesting. Even if a plank of a ship was replaced, it would still be the original ship.
Then slowly, one piece was replaced a day, and finally the entire hull was replaced. Is it still the same boat?
Then reassemble all the replaced planks. Is it the original ship, or are the discarded planks the original ship?
Just as he was told, Roger excitedly picked up the hammer and the discarded parts, and reassembled the puppet.
When it comes to science, Roger, a scumbag, can't do it, but as a carpenter, it doesn't require any knowledge of physics and chemistry. You can still repair it by yourself, although it may not be perfect.
"Okay, perfect~"
Roger looked at the puppet happily. This reassembled puppet was exactly the same as before, except that it looked a little uglier without clothes and spray paint. But it didn't matter. Now we wanted to see if it could move.
"Hey, can you move? It won't be useless, right?" Roger pushed it a few times with his hand, but the wooden man didn't move at all.
"Forget it, I'm going to watch TV. It seems that my soul has been transferred..." After throwing it away, Roger went in to take a shower and prepared to watch TV.
Although strange stories, resentful spirits and the like cannot be explained scientifically, the core of the opponent, such as the soul, must have been transferred, so the replaced body may not be able to move.
"Huh~~" Halfway through the bath, the large Pinocchio appeared again, smiled sinisterly, and threw a hair dryer that was connected to the electricity and leaked the circuit, trying to electrocute Roger.
Roger glanced at it and was too lazy to pay attention to this stupid wooden man. After so many times, he still didn't know that his boss was an extremely powerful exorcist? He had a rotten head and couldn't understand him.
After Roger finished taking a shower, he came out and sat on the sofa to watch TV. When he saw Tony firmly announcing on TV that he would close the Stark weapons department, he knew that Steel 1 was about to begin...
To be continued...
