EP 29. Visiting Long Island

Anyone who has watched the movie knows that Tony Stark's mansion is located in Los Angeles on the west coast of the United States, just on the beautiful Malibu Beach.

But in fact, Tony Stark's personal property that can be called "home" is not limited to that one.

After all, he is the boss and often has to run around. Living in a hotel every day, how can you feel comfortable living in your own home? In order to save trouble, buying a house in a city that is often visited is the common choice of many rich and big bosses.

Rich people with a little bit of wealth will have several 'homes', let alone a rich man like Tony Stark who has a net worth of over 100 billion and likes to buy land, buildings and houses everywhere?

In Texas, his hometown in the south of the mainland of the United States, there is the manor left by Howard Stark; in the north, in Montana, close to the Canadian border, there is a farm for summer vacation; on the island of Hawaii, there is There are beach houses bought for sunbathing; there are forest cabins built for fishing in Alaska... In the United States alone, there are more than twenty mansions under the name of Tony Stark. Both of these properties can be called 'homes' in terms of configuration.

This only counts the "long-term holding" part. The "I got interested today, bought it suddenly, and then calmed down and thought I didn't like it, and then let people dispose of it" actually didn't count. If you add the purchase for investment...

There are really many properties under Stark's private name, no matter the number or scale, they are not inferior to professional real estate companies.

And in the Big Apple City where Stark Industries headquarters is located, of course he also has a 'home'.

In fact, before the timeline advanced to "Avengers 1", the mansion on Long Island, New York, was where Tony Stark lived most often.

Firstly, it was because the headquarters of Stark Industries was in New York. As the chairman, he often had to go around the company due to work needs. If you live in Los Angeles for a long time, you have to fly five or six hours to New York. To be honest, even having a private jet is still too much work.

Secondly, it's because Stark likes to hook up with beautiful women, especially famous models from all walks of life... As for actresses, Los Angeles is backed by Hollywood, so there are quite a lot of resources. It can be replaced by a tall and long-legged model who wins purely because of her beauty, which is obviously better in New York.

Moving to Malibu for a long time is after "establishing a relationship with Pepper Pepper, completely giving up Lieyan, and being anxious because of the war with aliens, and devoting all my thoughts to developing armor" Son... To put it bluntly, it was because of anxiety attacks first, and then, after being comforted by Pepper many times, and feeling the warm tolerance and love from her like a family member, Stark really faced up to his heart and recognized Xiaojiali's weight, and finally confirmed that she is his lifelong partner, and then, he changed his mind and became a good man.

As for now...

Although the relationship has made a breakthrough, and subconsciously regarded Pepper as a family member, allowing her to replace Obaday in his heart, but for Pepper's sake... If Stark My life trajectory is likened to driving on the road. The little thing in "Iron Man 1" is at best the level of "changing lanes and taking a fork in the road", and it is far from the level of U-turning.

All in all, the venue for Stark's party today is in New York, so there's no need for Shi Xiaolei to hurry to Los Angeles.

"Go straight ahead and turn left at the next intersection."

"Keep going, there are still 300 meters to the destination."

"We are here. Welcome to Stark Manor with your family, Mr. Locke."

"Thank you." When responding, seeing the wrought iron gate in front of the car slowly open, Shi Xiaolei asked casually: "Jarvis, you opened the door? By the way, don't you have security guards here?"

"Mr. Stark has installed a complete fully automatic defense facility in the manor,

I'm in charge. In theory, the estate does not need security guards. "Through the Bluetooth headset, Jarvis answered Shi Xiaolei's question.

"Sure enough, he is a rich man." He muttered, and drove the car in along the opened gate, Shi Xiaolei continued to lightly step on the accelerator: "Continue to drive along this road?"

"Yes. Mr. Stark told you to go directly to the main building."

Under the guidance of Jarvis, Shi Xiaolei's family soon arrived at their destination. Perhaps it was reported by Jarvis that Stark had already come outside the house, waiting to welcome the three of them.

"Hey, Tony~."

"Why are you here so late?" Opening his arms and hugging Shi Xiaolei, Stark complained slightly dissatisfied: "Do you know how long I've been waiting? Dude, don't tell me that the road is too congested."

"I went to see a house." Shi Xiaolei smiled, and greeted Pepper who was by Stark's side: "Pepper, good afternoon."

"Hello, Locke."

Although the relationship has not been determined yet, since she appeared beside Stark, Pepper knew very well that she needed to assume the role of hostess. No, after saying hello to Shi Xiaolei, she turned her attention to 2B and Kang Na, and greeted them warmly.

Ignoring the three girls who entered the house, Shi Xiaolei and Tony came to the back of the car.

"I told you to come here directly, huh, all of these?"

"I have made an appointment with someone, and it is not appropriate to suddenly break the contract. Besides, I saw the photos he sent before, and I feel that the house is quite suitable. If I don't take a look, I will always feel unwilling." , Shi Xiaolei moved the foam box containing mutton out of the trunk: "You didn't say that, let me bring some more. Here, there are a total of 300 kilograms... I wanted to pack two more boxes, but I can't help it. This vehicle has a limited load."

"That's enough, buddy, thank you." He patted Shi Xiaolei's arm happily, and Stark raised his hand to his ear: "Jarvis, it's time to work. Call a small trailer and move these things." Go to the kitchen."

"Already on the way."

As soon as the words fell, an electric car drove over from the side of the villa. Looking at the mechanical arm equipped on the car, you can tell that this thing must have been designed and manufactured by Stark himself.

"OK, I saw it, and I'll leave it to you." After giving another order, Stark lowered his arm and turned his head to signal: "Let's go, don't worry about it here."

"...I want to see it." Shi Xiaolei shook his head, and pointed to the small trailer that had already driven up: "I've never seen a robot before, to be honest, I'm really curious."

"Iron Overlord was dismantled by you yourself, have you forgotten?"

"That's different. A battleframe is a battleframe, and a robot is a robot. They are two different things."

"So..." Hearing what Shi Xiaolei said, Stark raised his eyebrows unconsciously: "Are you also from the 'purely intelligent machine' school?"

"Huh?" The very unfamiliar abbreviation made Shi Xiaolei confused: "What do you mean, I don't understand."
