Chapter 1217 Pier
A freighter docked at the docks of Hell's Kitchen.
It is still under renovation, and the docks of Hell's Kitchen have long been used to dock smuggling ships and some scrapped cargo ships.
The city government rents the berths here to small freight companies at low prices. In fact, they don't know that they are basically smuggling ships.
A 5,000-ton cargo ship has not been seen here for a long time...
Old Kent led a small fleet of barges and also docked at the dock.
What he wanted to do was to deliver the first batch of church roofs shipped from Italy to the lighthouse island 3 nautical miles away.
Old Kent didn't know why Alvin was so crazy that he spent a lot of money to buy a dilapidated church from Italy, and he dismantled it and sent it back...
He is responsible for finding someone to transport the broken bricks intact to Lighthouse Island, where it will be rebuilt.
Although I think Alvin is a bit of a waste of money, in Old Kent's opinion this is a good thing.
People in Hell's Kitchen, for the most part, don't go to church, and they cross themselves more often than they do because they get a little sympathy in front of the judge.
Now that there is a cathedral, and if there is a reliable priest, maybe people in Hell's Kitchen will have a good place to go on weekends in the future, and those irresponsible parents will have one more choice when they abandon their children, right?
At least the young people in Hell's Kitchen will have a place to get married in the future, and sailing 3 nautical miles only takes 10 minutes...
Old Kent cursed and directed a few workers to open the tower crane on the pier that was basically not used. Then he came to Norman Osborne who was leaning on the front of a Maybach, smiled and greeted him, and said : "Hello, Mr. Osborne!
You don’t actually have to stay here, we will send those things to Lighthouse Island safely..."
Norman Osborn was quite polite to Kent Sr. Everyone knew that Kent Sr. was helping Alvin with some chores in Hell's Kitchen.
This old guy has lived in Hell's Kitchen for nearly 70 years, and no one knows it better than him...
Hearing Old Kent's greeting, Norman Osborne shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm here to greet a few 'guests'. You may not be able to handle these guests of ours..."
As he spoke, Norman Osborne turned around and opened his car door, took out two cigars from the glove box and handed one to Old Kent, and then said with a smile: "Alvin will come over later, but his current status It’s not suitable to appear in public yet…
Remember to inform your guys and tell them not to spread anything they see..."
After hearing this, Old Kent took the cigar, then spat to the side, and said angrily: "Alvin shouldn't be in jail at all, what's the point of going to jail for those damn mutants?
And those sons of bitches don't seem to appreciate it very much. Recently, there are always news about mutant attacks in other states.
When will those sons of bitches stop for a while?
Alvin should use his battle ax to tell them what to do instead of going to jail to protect those mutants...
We never get any fucking preferential treatment in court, so why do those mutants? "
Norman Osborn did not argue with Old Kent about the significance of Alvin's actions. Old Kent's statement represented the thoughts of some Hell's Kitchen residents, who truly regarded Alvin as their king.
While defending Alvin, it's normal to be a little upset that Alvin cares too much about people outside of Hell's Kitchen.
Norman Osborne handed a delicate lighter to Old Kent and said with a smile: "Don't mention this, this is Alvin's own choice, you just need to believe that Alvin's roots are in Hell's Kitchen.
In fact, I think Alvin's stay in Hell's Kitchen is a waste of his abilities, but he seems to love you so much.
Will you feel better if I say this? "
After hearing this, Old Kent grinned honestly and said, "Alvin is a nostalgic person, and no one can take him away from Hell's Kitchen..."
As he spoke, Old Kent didn't seem to want to continue chatting with Norman Osborne. This old man had a smooth personality, but he was very tough on Alvin's affairs. What Norman Osborne just said made him a little unhappy... …
Putting the delicate lighter handed to him by Norman Osborne into his pocket, Old Kent shouted loudly to the two workers in work clothes: "Aren't you fucking eating?
Hurry up and get over here and unload everything..."
As he spoke, Old Kent ignored Norman Osborne, who looked a little strange, and went to work in the distance. As for the valuable lighter, well, who remembers it?
Norman Osborne shook his head in a funny way. He thought Hell's Kitchen was really interesting. All the people he met here seemed to have great personalities...
Just when Norman Osborne wanted to make a call to urge Alvin, a tall figure appeared near the pier.
An extremely majestic black man, about 2.3 meters tall, was walking slowly on the busy pier.
If Cassell was here, he would know that this big man was John Coffey, the "Person of Pain" who escaped that day...
However, Kofi now looked extremely haggard, and his pair of Roman column-like thick legs seemed to be unable to support his weight, making him stagger a little when walking, looking very embarrassed.
Norman Osborne frowned as he watched Coffey walk up to him. He did not pay attention to himself, a super rich man who should not be here. Instead, he looked at the freighter docked at the dock with dull eyes and murmured. He murmured to himself: "Is it you? Is it you?
The guardian of the dark night, the scepter of ‘god’…
Is it you? Are you here to pick me up? "
Norman Osborne frowned and looked up and down at Coffey, who didn't look dangerous. He hesitated and finally didn't ask a question about a guy who looked mentally ill.
Even if he had guessed that this big black man was related to the three nocturnal dragons on the ship, who was Norman Osborn?
It would be impossible for a super-rich man in the United States, a super boss in both finance and science, to take the initiative to talk to someone who looks like a fool.
Just when Norman Osborn was a little irritated by Coffey's muttering, Alvin secretly made a small speedboat and docked at the dock.
Every worker who saw him would say hello to him, and the efficiency of the workers who had been struggling just a moment instantly improved.
Old Kent cursed a few words at the workers, then wandered over to Alvin and greeted him, saying, "Alvin, you have to take a few days off sick to go back and see us. Old boy……
When you're not at the Peace Hotel, I don't even find it interesting to drink!
I'll call Matt's idiot lawyer. That bastard Pluto can get medical parole, why can't you?
If he doesn't do well, I won't let him stay in Hell's Kitchen for a day..."
Alvin smiled after hearing this, picked up the skinny black old man and spun him around, and then said: "You poor guys who can sit for an entire afternoon with a glass of whiskey are the enemies of the restaurant...
It must be because of you that I haven't gotten rich..."
As he spoke, Alvin glanced sideways at Old Kent up and down, and said with a smile: "You have a pretty good figure, quickly find yourself a woman with a big butt, and maybe you can have a son who will inherit your houses.
FUCK, how many houses do you own in Hell's Kitchen?
I know you rented Matt's office to him, so don't give him any trouble!
This guy finally managed to get enough food and clothing, so just let him live a solid life for two years, otherwise my restaurant will have two more poor guys eating and drinking..."
Old Kent laughed proudly, then lowered his head slightly and came to Alvin's side and said: "I started acquiring houses in Hell's Kitchen a long time ago, to be precise, it started from the first year you came here. …
My pension was all invested in it. Who could have imagined that after spending my whole life selling stolen goods, I ended up getting rich by buying a house in Hell’s Kitchen! "
As he spoke, Old Kent looked around and whispered: "There are 60 houses in total. Don't tell others..."
After hearing this, Alvin looked at the old black man in surprise and said in disbelief: "Are you going to put the fucking house in a coffin? Isn't it bad to have money to eat and drink?"
After hearing this, Old Kent smiled and spread his hands and said: "You don't understand. According to my experience of 65 years of living, buying a house is the best way for people like us to fight against inflation...
An old friend of mine was released from prison last month. He was sentenced to 10 years for stealing goods worth 500,000 yuan from an electronics store...
He thought it was his pension money, so even if he was sentenced to 10 years, he did not reveal where he hid those things...
result……"
As he spoke, Old Kent seemed to have thought of something particularly funny. He laughed loudly and slapped his thighs with tears in his eyes. He said: "As a result, those damn DVDs and computers are all fucking obsolete. Now they are basically useless." It’s not worth anything anymore…”
Alvin looked at Old Kent, who was smiling but smiling a little sadly, and said, "Where is that unlucky guy now?"
Old Kent wiped the tears from his face and said with a smile: "Where else can it be?
He took a knife to a bank and stabbed an unfortunate guy in the thigh...
Where else can a 70-year-old man go but to jail? "
Alvin has no sympathy at all for this kind of old guy who has been bad all his life. At least he knows where is right for him.
Patting Old Kent on the shoulder, Alvin said with a smile: "Actually, the food in the prison is pretty good, and the old guy usually gets some preferential treatment.
You must be much better than him, remember to go to the restaurant every month to drink a glass of dragon bone wine, live for a few more years and see what Hell's Kitchen will become..."
As he spoke, Alvin looked at Norman Osborne, who had been looking at him with a smile. He walked over with a smile and said: "Where are our guests, I am extremely curious about them.
Can they really turn into gargoyles?
I wonder if they would mind squatting on the roof of my restaurant for a few days?
I've seen some pictures of them and those guys look so cool! "
After hearing this, Norman Osborne glanced at the big man Coffey standing on the edge of the pier not far away, staring at the freighter, and then said to Alvin: "You won't be disappointed, Greenwald spent a lot of time." It took me so little energy to catch these leaders...
They are much more powerful than you might think! "
