Those Years when Marvel Was a Superhero

Chapter 597 The Stark Group that Lacks Chefs

The day after arriving on Earth-1, Li Jie pushed his cart out to set up a stall. In 1965, the street management in the United States was not so strict, and there were few police or other government agencies to manage street stalls.

Especially in this world of Earth-1, in this world, the real trouble facing street vendors is not the police, but the gangsters on the street. They'll come and collect all kinds of protection money. Of course, most of the gangsters who collect protection fees from street stalls are not on the table. Big gang members, even if they want to collect protection fees, they still go to various shops or companies with good looks. If you don't give it, you will make people feel uneasy.

When Li Jie's small stall was just set up, a group of such people came, which was different from the main world. In Earth-One New York in 1965, the main composition of the gang was white. People of other skin colors are basically in the stage of being oppressed, especially blacks who are huddled in their own communities and dare not go out. Because there are gangs that specialize in trouble with black people.

The Ku Klux Klan in this world [white supremacy] is very, very arrogant. For example, Li Jie was asked for trouble by the Flying Fire Gang in a bar because of this, because he is obviously not Caucasian.

Li Jie made a little disguise, and it was very dark that night. In fact, Mei and Anthony didn't see Li Jie's appearance very clearly.

Although Li Jie made some disguises, his appearance is still a bit troublesome in this world. The physical characteristics of a mixed race are still very conspicuous. Li Jie was not polite, and was beaten away directly.

In 1965, New York's lower society was really a world where fists were used to reason. The law was not very useful. Anyway, one more thing is worse than one less thing.

After Li Jie set up the stall, he also bought a lot of newspapers and magazines from the newsstand next door. The source of the money was found from the members of the Feihuo Gang that he dropped yesterday. It was about a few hundred dollars. .

He went through all the newspapers, and the news that he had killed more than a dozen gang members last night was not in the newspapers at all, or the newspapers didn't pay attention at all. It just wrote that a fire broke out in a certain street, and more than a dozen gang members died. Then he took it all away, which also made Li Jie fully aware of the dark nature of this world, and the death of more than a dozen people in New York City is not taken seriously.

After that, check various news and news to get a general understanding of the world. After all, in a world without the Internet, newspapers, magazines and books are the only way to learn about these things.

There is no Captain America in this world, no Steve Rogers, Howard died very early, and now the heir of the Stark Group is the young Anthony. But he has not yet come to power, in fact the person in charge of managing the Stark Group is Peter Parker......

One after another, all kinds of different things invaded Li Jie's head. This world is really different from the atrium.

Just when Li Jie felt a bit of a headache, he heard the sound of Mei slapping the iron railing, and the sentence: "Is there any hot coffee?"

Only then did Li Jie turn his eyes away from the newspaper and look at the father and daughter who were standing in front of his stall.

His eyes widened, wait? Am I dazzled? Why does this girl look so much like Mary Jane? At least seven or eight points are similar! And who is standing next to her? Although he was not very sure, Li Jie somehow felt that the fifty-year-old man's face looked a bit like a combination of Peter Parker and Ben Parker.

By the way, the magazine he was reading just now, Li Jie quickly glanced at a New York Weekly, the man on the back cover was the man in front of him, his name was Peter Parker.

Li Jie gritted his teeth a little. He just opened up the small stall in front of the Stark Group. Although he had the idea of ​​getting in touch with the Iron Man of this world, or getting in touch with Spider-Man, he never thought that he would meet the person he wanted to see at the beginning. people.

Mei looked at the owner of the trolley in front of her with some curiosity. It was the first time she saw someone who was so slow in doing business and kept staring at the customers. This was not good. So May asked again: "Is there any hot coffee?"

At this time, Li Jie came back to his senses and said: "I'm sorry that there is no hot coffee, but do you need any other hot drinks?"

Now Li Jie has come to his senses, and is thinking about how to connect with the heroes of this world, just like the Anthony he saw yesterday, he has already determined that it is Iron Man. Although this Iron Man is weak and a little timid. But at least in that environment, he was still willing to come out with a bulletproof vest and a gun to save himself. With such courage and responsibility alone, Li Jie felt that he should help him.

At the very least, the name of Iron Man can't be dropped so badly that Iron Man who can't even deal with a dozen gangsters can be called Iron Man?

Li Jie smiled and said to Mei that he doesn't provide hot coffee here, it's too troublesome to make hot coffee, and he needs a coffee machine. He really didn't want to sell instant coffee, because not many people bought instant coffee.

Mei was not disappointed when she heard that there was no hot coffee. It was a small stall, and she didn't expect it to be sold. So she asked again: "So what's the hot drink? Or hot soup?"

After three hours of cold wind blowing in the cemetery, Mei's body was completely cold from the inside out, and she urgently needed a cup of steaming drink or soup to refresh herself, whether it was hot cocoa or hot tomato soup.

Li Jie smiled at Mei and Peter, then opened the lid of the square pot that was originally placed on the trolley, and said: "Hot drinks include hot milk tea and hot lemon tea. For soup, there is only Kanto soup, promise, here It’s Kanto cooking.”

The lid of the pot above the trolley was lifted, and white water vapor rose up. What is the most attractive thing in the cold winter? Steaming hot pot is counted as one, Malatang is also counted as one, and Kanto cooking is naturally counted as one.

Kanto cooking has the same effect as hot pot or pot in many places. Choose a variety of cooking-resistant ingredients and throw them into the broth boiled with kelp (kelp) and bonito or bonito, and cook slowly. While bringing out the flavor of the ingredients, it also allows the flavor of the soup to penetrate into the ingredients.

In the square pot at Li Jie’s stall, there are six kinds of oden with different ingredients, radish, seaweed, eggs, beef tendon, fish cake and bamboo shoots.

The lid was lifted, and there was a strong fragrance coming out along with the heat. The fresh and sweet smell from the ingredients instantly opened up Mei and Peter's sense of smell, which was originally insensitive due to the cold winter.

Mei's throat moved. She originally wanted to drink a cup of coffee, but when she smelled it, she suddenly became hungry. After all, I set off to the cemetery in the morning and came back now. The back and forth journey plus the time spent in the cemetery, it is actually one o'clock in the noon now, and it is time for lunch.

May glanced at Peter and said, "How about we have something to eat, Daddy?"

Peter sniffed the smell and glanced at Li Jie. His spider sense didn't warn him of danger, so he nodded and said, "Okay, if you want to eat."

Peter is not that particular. After all, he lived in poverty when he was young. When he was really poor, he couldn't even afford to eat at the roadside stalls.

Li Jie's small dining car is very clean, and the kitchen utensils on the side look very professional (after all, they are legendary kitchen utensils). And the smell really whets the appetite, and a bowl of hot stew in winter is quite good. Anyway Peter it looks like there is not much difference between oden and stew (in fact there is no difference).

The father and daughter who originally wanted to drink coffee turned into stew. Basically, they ordered one serving of each ingredient, and Peter ordered two servings of beef tendon.

Li Jie took out two disposable tableware from the dining car and placed them in front of Peter and his daughter, and took out enough oden for them, then quietly poured out some liquid from the dragon pot under the dining car and mixed it into the oden in the soup stock.

Those were some soup ingredients secretly made by Li Jie, not the popular Kanto cooking stuff sold on the counter, but a special soup made with legendary kitchen utensils. When making the soup, Li Jie deliberately controlled a considerable amount of energy to pour into the soup, so that the taste of the soup not only became better, but also had special effects.

Just like the current situation of the Parker father and daughter, May's eyes suddenly widened when she took the first sip of the soup, while Peter looked even more surprised, and he barely concealed his expression.

After he took the first sip, he closed his eyes for a moment, then immediately took a second sip. He glanced at May, and May returned him an unbelievable look.

Because both of them can clearly feel that this soup contains some strange energy, the moment it enters the stomach, it makes the whole body warm, and the whole body seems to be penetrated by heat. comfortable.

This feeling is not the stimulation of sweating after eating that kind of spicy food, but a more neutral and peaceful feeling. After a bowl of soup, the whole body is like taking a hot bath.

Peter said without thinking much, "Hi sir, can I ask you how to make this soup?"

Li Jie looked at old Peter with a teasing expression. He felt that the emotional intelligence of this old Peter was the same as that of young Peter.

Peter soon realized that he seemed to be asking the wrong question: "I'm sorry, I was abrupt. I just want to know why after drinking this soup, I feel warm all over my body, and my whole body seems to be full of vitality, just like a stomachache. It’s like eating a large piece of American ginseng.”

Li Jie smiled: "This is a kind of diet therapy. It is especially good in winter. It is especially useful for weak qi and blood, and it is also good for cold. I used some healthy herbs."

Peter fell into deep thought after listening to Li Jie's words, and after Mei finished cooking her Oden, she felt a lot more relaxed, and she invited Li Jie as if she had thought of something: "Sir, I am interested in coming to the Stark Group Working?"

"Huh?" Li Jie was stunned for a moment: "What are you doing?"

Mei said as a matter of course: "Naturally, as a chef, our company can provide you with good remuneration, at least better than your street stalls. Of course, you need to provide the most basic hygiene qualification checks to enter."

Peter on the side didn't stop May from speaking, he seemed to think of something, he just smiled on the side.

On the other hand, Li Jie touched his chin. It seemed that the Stark Group really lacked chefs. Tony had invited him in the atrium world. In the world of Earth One, Peter's daughter also came to invite her.
