Plug-in Players In Marvel

As an employee of SHIELD, the average salary is almost higher than that of ordinary soldiers.

But if you include the subsidies during missions and the extra money you get from various channels... Even if you are just a low-level agent, as long as he is not focused on the back office department, overall, the income is still very good.

Natasha is a level 10 agent who has been through the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. agency several times, and the total number of agents at her level cannot exceed the number of hands. In addition, she has always been responsible for performing field tasks... After working for so many years, the amount of U.S. dollars saved in Natasha's private vault has reached eight figures, and it is still an eight-digit number starting with 7. .

Excluding the reserves that are kept in anonymous accounts to prepare for emergencies and cannot be easily used, Natasha has about 20 million in spare money that she can spend on hand.

Even in the Big Apple, where land is at a premium, this amount of money is not small.

It can be said that it is easier than buying a store.

However, in the end, Natasha did not use her own treasury and paid for a store for Alexei and Melina.

It's not that she can't bear it, but it's not necessary.

Anyway, S.H.I.E.L.D. has a lot of real estate in New York City. As Natasha, as long as she says hello to Nick Fury, she can get a storefront at no cost.

It's not a major event involving world peace, not to mention that Nick Fury himself has often made up his own name to ask for funding from his superiors... He doesn't want to take advantage of it, and he also feels that his parents will definitely be monitored by S.H.I.E.L.D. in the future. , she should have fought for a compensation for them, so Natasha did not hesitate to show favoritism and got a storefront from SHIELD.

It's either somewhere else, it's in Chinatown, across the street from the old store that Shi Xiaolei opened, and the store that Barbara Morse used when she pretended to be a flower shop owner.

The reason why I chose this store is that the security in Chinatown is pretty good.

Well, just looking at the past, it was actually just average. After all, the status of Chinese people here in New York is not high. There are often some gangsters who go to Chinatown to cause trouble and cause trouble. To be precise, the public security conditions in Chinatown have been significantly improved in the past two years.

On the one hand, it is because China’s strength is gradually growing, which has given support to Chinese Americans living in New York. On the other hand, it was also because after Shi Xiaolei got acquainted with George Stacey, he donated money and things to the police station from time to time. It is said that eating people is short-sighted and soft-handed. Thanks to Shi Xiaolei's benefit, the patrol officers gradually went to Chinatown for patrols more often, and then naturally, the security situation in that area was improved.

I know that Alexei has a temper that can explode at the slightest moment, and I also know that ordinary gangsters can't resist his tossing. Therefore, in order to avoid causing trouble, Natasha deliberately chose a facade in Chinatown.

Secondly, the size of this shop is more suitable.

The store is too big, and Alexei and Melina may be too busy just to do it. If it is small, there will be too little time left because there are too few things to do. Melina didn't have to worry, but if it were Alexei, Natasha didn't think he could stay there honestly and endure that kind of leisure.

After comparing several storefronts in Chinatown and nearby, in terms of size, the store opposite Shi Xiaolei's old store is more suitable.

From Natasha's point of view, this room is of course her first choice.

The third point is also the most important - if you open a small shop here, you can get some care and get some benefits from Shi Xiaolei.

After all, the old store that Shi Xiaolei ran personally is still there and has not been moved elsewhere by Skye and the others.

Letting Alexei and Melina open a store across the street may not matter in the short term, but as time goes by, when they truly integrate into the local area and become a member of the street, the situation will be different.

If the two of them encounter any trouble, as neighbors, the people in the old store will definitely come forward and say a few words to help. If the situation were more serious, the news might reach Shi Xiaolei's ears through Skye's mouth or someone else's mouth. Then, for the sake of Skye or other store clerks, Shi Xiaolei might be able to come forward and say a word to Alexie and Melina, who were already accepted by many neighbors in Chinatown.

As long as Shi Xiaolei takes a stand, many things can be solved smoothly. It is no exaggeration to say that even if Nick Fury is making up his mind, he has to carefully consider the consequences.

so……

Even though Natasha always quarreled with Alexey and always responded to Melina with resentment, just looking at her meticulousness and care in settling the two of them, her eldest daughter still acted like a pretty girl. qualified.

However, there will always be some things that are beyond expectation. Even with Natasha's meticulousness, it is impossible to completely see what the future will be like.

For example, Alexei failed to lose weight and gained weight instead of losing weight, which was something Natasha never expected.

It's not because there are Chinese restaurants everywhere in Chinatown. Alexey, who came here to live here for a long time, failed to control his mouth and ate and drank all day long, which eventually led to his belly getting bigger and bigger.

The key reason why he failed was not the big fish and meat, nor the beer or other alcoholic drinks, but the cups of milk tea.

It's a natural thing to open a biscuit shop and sell them with drinks.

When the shop first opened, it only served some common drinks on the market, such as cola and freshly squeezed juice.

But as milk tea became popular in Europe and the United States...

It's easy to tell that it would first appear in Chinatown where Chinese people gather. Including the raw materials used to open the shop, they were also first spread from here.

The shop is in Chinatown. Although the biscuit shop opened by Alexi and Melina is not the first shop in New York City to sell milk tea, it is one of the first few in terms of order.

In addition, his wife and children are very strict, which restricts Alexi from drinking...

Naturally, Alexi regards the newly launched milk tea as a substitute for alcoholic beverages, and he has three or five cups almost every day.

As we all know, a small cup in the United States is equivalent to a large cup in China.

Alexi drinks three or five cups a day, and they are large cups by American standards. Considering the sugar content of milk tea, coupled with Alexey's belly size... it would be a miracle if he didn't gain weight.

Of course, it would take a long time for him to become a fat man weighing nearly 300 kilograms. For now, Alexey's belly is not that big, and his body is just a little fatter than that of an ordinary person.

And the three girls, including Natasha, have not given up the idea of ​​urging him to lose weight.
