The eighth floor of the Erwin Laboratory Building.
It wasn't Matt's first time here, but it was his first time to see it with his own eyes.
"Buzz~Master, welcome back."
"Hmm~ Mr. Murdoch, welcome."
Stim just happened to slide over from the corridor and greeted the two of them.
Although Matt had heard Stim's voice many times, this was the first time he saw Stim's appearance with his own eyes. But at this glance, his eyes were attracted by Stim's big round head.
By chance, Stim stopped in front of the two of them, and Matt subconsciously reached out and touched Stim's big head.
Stim was not annoyed at all. Instead, he was very happy. He looked up at Matt and his big eyes flashed twice: "Mr. Murdoch, can your eyes see clearly? Congratulations."
"
Matt didn't expect that Stim was so smart, and there was a trace of surprise on his face, which then turned into a happy smile. He gave Stim two more kisses: "What a smart little guy."
Leo also touched Stim's head, and then called Matt: "Let's go, Bucky is still waiting in the training room, let's go call him."
The door of the training room detected Leo's approach and opened automatically.
Hearing the noise coming from the door, Tony, who was training enthusiastically inside, stopped what he was doing and looked at the door together with Bucky, who was in charge of coaching.
Leo and Matt walked in from the door. Bucky, who had sharp eyes, immediately noticed the difference in Matt's eyes: "Oh, God bless, Matt, your eyes have really recovered?!"
"Yes, I've recovered." Matt felt that he spent more time laughing today than he did all last year. He happily faced Bucky and said, "Teacher Bucky, your appearance is exactly as I imagined. Kong
He is powerful yet handsome."
It is indeed a licking dog!
Leo muttered in his heart, why does Matt say everyone is handsome when he meets him...
Bucky laughed and joked: "I see that not only your eyes have recovered, but your mouth has also become able to talk!"
Leo interrupted the sterile exchange between the two and looked at Bucky: "The time agreed with Old Tom is coming soon. Let's leave quickly and don't keep him waiting."
After saying that, Leo thought of Tony again, "Tony, we are going to have dinner together, do you want to go with us?"
Tony is no longer a stranger to Leo now, and with Bucky as a cheap uncle, he can even be said to be very familiar with him: "Okay, let's go together. After my body strengthening is completed, I haven't eaten it yet."
Where are the things? But I think my appetite must have increased a lot, so I’ll go check it out.”
Although Tony's words are suspected of "eating and drinking", considering his extremely wealthy status, the word "eating and drinking" is inappropriate when applied to him.
So Leo suppressed his desire to complain, nodded, and raised his hand to open a portal.
The portal opened in the alley next to the Chinese restaurant. This alley usually had few people coming and going, and today was no exception, so the sudden appearance of a few people did not cause any trouble.
After turning out of the alley and walking a few steps, Leo led everyone to the agreed upon place and opened the door of the restaurant.
It's quite late now, but there are still many customers in the restaurant. This was a scene that would have been unimaginable in Hell's Kitchen a few years ago.
Ever since Leo came to Hell's Kitchen to settle down, Bucky, Matt and Peter acted openly or covertly, and after Kingpin's death, the gangsters who followed Kingpin dispersed, all died, and a few
Wrapped up by Bucky.
Since then, things have gotten better and better in Hell's Kitchen.
Ordinary residents of Hell's Kitchen don't know which force is secretly helping the chaotic neighborhood, but they can feel that Hell's Kitchen is getting better and safer.
In this regard, restaurant owner Li Jianqiang has the most profound experience.
Li Jianqiang is a Chinese who settled in the United States. After graduating from high school, he could not find a suitable and good job due to his background in Hell's Kitchen. In addition, his parents died in an accident, so he chose to inherit the small Chinese restaurant run by his parents.
Four years ago, he lived a life of hard work during the day and fear at night.
Every month I have to pay several large and crippling protection fees from time to time.
But starting from a certain day four years ago (he couldn't remember the date), he suddenly discovered that no one had been knocking on the door at night to collect protection money for a long time.
Moreover, more and more people came to the restaurant to eat in the evening, the closing time became later and later, and the money earned became more and more generous.
In addition, he is good at cooking delicious dishes, and many people like to eat them, so there will naturally be more repeat customers.
In this way, the wealth in his hands accumulated more and more, and the small restaurant changed into a large restaurant.
In addition to his career, his love life has also been fruitful.
The parents of his girlfriend who had known each other for many years, because Hell's Kitchen has become better and better in recent years, and Li Jianqiang's own ambition, finally stopped blocking their daughter and agreed to the marriage.
In New York, it is a rare thing for a Chinese from Hell's Kitchen to marry a beautiful, virtuous and non-Hell's Kitchen Chinese girl.
Li Jianqiang is very satisfied with his living situation, and naturally cares more and more about his increasingly popular Chinese restaurant.
He is so obsessed with restaurants, not only because operating restaurants is his only source of income, but also because of a secret that he considers to be very important.
Among the repeat customers in his restaurant, there are several great people!
For example, the middle-aged man sitting in the best private room of the restaurant, waiting for his friend.
That was Mr. Tom Jook, the financial director of Irvine Technology, the hottest company in the United States.
Among the people who occasionally frequented the Chinese restaurant with him, there were men and women, and each of them was a powerful figure in Erwin Technology Company.
But what concerned Li Jianqiang the most was a young Chinese who came here occasionally.
According to the attitudes of Mr. Jiuke and others, if Li Jianqiang guessed correctly, that young Chinese is the chairman of Erwin Technology Company.
A Chinese turned out to be the chairman of Erwin Technology Company. This was both a shock and a great encouragement to Li Jianqiang.
But these are not the reasons why Li Jianqiang cares most about the young Chinese.
Li Jianqiang said that he had never told the real reason, because it was just a guess on his part, a bold guess, a guess that even he could not believe.
It seems that the day when no one stopped calling for protection money was around the day when Erwin Technology opened in Hell's Kitchen.
Irvine Technology Company was founded in the most chaotic Hell's Kitchen in New York, but the products it eventually produced were sold throughout the United States. Even Li Jianhua heard from his own channels in China that Irwin Technology's products were very popular in China.
This is extremely scary. If Erwin Technology Company didn't have a black-and-white approach, it would be absolutely impossible!
Li Jianhua is a smart man. He thought of this, and then thought of the reasons why Hell's Kitchen is getting better and better. He naturally suspects that Erwin Technology Company, or that young Chinese, is the key to making Hell's Kitchen get better and better.
At the same time, it was precisely because he was a smart man that he buried his discovery deep in his heart and no one dared to tell anyone.
However, although he doesn't say it, every time Mr. Tom Jook and others come to dine, Li Jianhua will definitely treat them with the best service attitude and the best price.
While Li Jianhua was thinking wildly, the bell at the door suddenly rang, indicating that a new guest had arrived.
There was a newly hired waiter at the door, and she greeted the guests who came in warmly.
But after Li Jianhua saw clearly who was coming in, he immediately walked out of the counter quickly, took over the duties of the waiter, and received him personally. With enthusiasm mixed with a hint of respect, he showed the way to Li Ao and others:
"Mr. Jiuke is in private room 666. Please follow me. I will take you there."
