(Yesterday's chapter number for Chapter 32 was misspelled as 31. Please forgive me.)
Thor and Loki's daily life as mortals began when they were employees of Li Jie's comic company. Loki had learned a lot of mortal knowledge from Ancient One.
He was also quite smart. He learned all kinds of electronic products very quickly, and it seemed that he enjoyed chatting with people on the Internet. Farming until I die. Playing mobile games.
Li Jie arranged for him to be an assistant in the company, mainly in charge of photocopying and typing in the company.
Speaking of which, Loki's current behavior was completely different from what Li Jie remembered. He seemed to be very easy to communicate with, and he didn't seem to be jealous of his brother's shill.
Although Loki couldn't lie because of the Sword of Truth, Loki was a little too smart. Although lies and compliments were necessary components of interpersonal communication, Loki was a little too smart.
Naked truth would always be ostracized by others in this society, but Loki seemed to have very good verbal skills.
Even some words that might cause others to be unhappy could still make people feel happy after being packaged by him.
For example, there was a middle-aged artist in the company who had a very big belly after reaching middle age because he worked in a sitting position all year round and lacked exercise.
He wasn't very good-looking, and he wasn't good at communicating with people. He was considered a relatively marginal figure in the company. He didn't have a good relationship with anyone, and could only be regarded as a simple colleague.
But he liked Loki, who had just joined the company, because Loki's first words made him feel very comfortable.
"You remind me of Volstagg, sir," Loki said.
"Who is that?"
"A warrior from Norse mythology." Loki didn't tell the artist that Volstagg was also a big fat man, and had a bad temper like him.
Very few people would praise this artist for his image, especially when they compared him to a legendary god. Although it was a bit exaggerated, he liked it very much.
Look! Loki won a person's basic affection with a simple partial truth. Although he had only been on the job for a few days, many people already regarded him as the most popular person in the company.
Many female employees in the company left phone numbers for Loki, saying that they would like to go to a bar or a cafe with Loki, and then something would happen.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I still have to look after my stupid brother to prevent him from causing any unnecessary trouble." Loki once again refused a woman's invitation, and the reason was Thor Thor.
Well, compared to his clever and popular younger brother, the God of Thunder's actions left people speechless.
For example, he liked to drink Drunken Smoky every day. It was said that this was the hobby of the actors. The God of Thunder was extremely fond of alcohol.
Originally, he had a divine body, so no matter how much he drank, he wouldn't get drunk. But now, he was a mortal. After drinking a bottle of strong alcohol, he didn't need to get out of bed for a day.
After that, he inexplicably quarreled with the employees because his job was to be a handyman and a security guard. In short, he had to do all the cleaning and mopping in the company.
Come on, when did Thor ever do something like that?
"No, absolutely not. I am the God of Thunder, I can't clean their toilets for a group of mortals. "In Li Jie's office, the actor roared angrily.
"This is work, Thor. Don't forget that you are under my command now." Li Jie didn't care about Thor's roar at all. In recent days, Thor has caused him a lot of trouble.
"And I found out that you haven't even cleaned the mop recently. You know, a good cleaner should put all the tools in a clean place."
"You are humiliating the gods! This kind of work is done by incompetent women! No one has ever dared to humiliate me like this. "Thor shouted excitedly with a mop in his hand.
Fortunately, the soundproofing effect of the office is good, and people outside don't know what's going on inside.
"I found out that you have another shortcoming, some discrimination against women? Are there female warriors in the Immortal Palace, Loki? "Li Jie asked Loki, who was sitting on the side playing video games on his mobile phone.
"There are many, such as the Valkyrie, such as Sif, and female shield guards." Loki answered without raising his head.
"You were not killed by those goddesses in the Immortal Palace? It's incredible. "Li Jie never knew that Thor discriminated against women, or had an overly masculine personality.
"Of course, I am the son of Odin, and the goddesses of the Immortal Palace worship me." Li Jie didn't believe a word of Thor's words.
"Thor has been judged as one of the most unpopular male gods in the Immortal Palace all year round. He can only go to other planets to hook up with some female believers who don't know the truth." Loki mercilessly undermined his brother.
It turned out that not only did Thor lie, but he was also a scumbag.
It seems that the current Thor is far from the later Avenger, the Thor who dares to take responsibility. Now he is more like a proud prince who is blindly arrogant.
No wonder Odin hasn't given the Hammer of Thor to Thor to use. I'm afraid that if I give it to him now, Thor will make a bigger mess.
In view of this, Li Jie decided to let Thor do some more work to make him understand his mistakes.
"In that case, when there is no one at night, Thor, you clean the women's toilet." Li Jie's words made Li Jie and Thor furious.
"You are insulting my divinity! Thor is going to challenge you, mortal! Do you dare accept my challenge! "Thor's tomahawk has long been taken away by Li Jie.
Now he can only take his work tools, a mop bought from IKEA and point it at Li Jie.
"This is a toilet mop? Thor, you should learn to take care of hygiene. "Li Jie said with some disgust.
"Loki, control your brother's emotions." This kind of thing can be handled directly by Loki.
Loki said that he understood, and directly summoned the decree given by Odin and chanted a complicated incantation.
Odin's magic is something that Thor and Loki can't resist. After all, he is the father of the gods.
Thor can only look at Li Jie and Loki unwillingly. "When I recover my divine power, I will make you pay, mortal!"
"If you continue like this, I'm afraid you won't recover your divine power one day. Thor, go to work and learn how to make money first." Li Jie pointed outside, indicating that Thor can leave.
"Don't forget, not only do you have no divine power, but you also don't have a dollar. Last time you drank our manager's whiskey, that is worth eighty dollars, and you don't have a penny to pay. I can only deduct it from your salary that you haven't received yet. "
"After you understand the meaning of ordinary work, think about whether you will recover your divine power one day!" Li Jie finally drove Thor out of his office and told him to go wash the toilet.
"Can you give me some dollars in advance?" When Thor left, Loki said.
"I need to buy something."
"Is it important?" Li Jie asked.
"Not very important, but it's interesting. I saw a silver necklace with the breath of the gods of Asgard, and it costs ten dollars. "Loki said with a frown.
"Maybe it's something that a god accidentally left in this world, and I want to bring it back."
He didn't want to reveal this information, but because of the real sword, he can't lie, so he can only tell the truth.
"Well, ten dollars can buy a silver necklace used by a god? Here's twenty dollars. "Li Jie took out twenty dollars in cash from his wallet and handed it to Loki.
"Look after your brother. I'll be away from the company for a while in the afternoon. I don't want to come back to find that all the bathrooms in our house have been blown up by Thor."
Li Jie had already made an appointment with Katie to visit her school. It was said to be an open day. Most students would invite their friends and family to attend.
However, Katie's parents seemed to be very busy with work, and the school was in the suburbs of New York, so they could only give up if they went there for too long. After all, her parents were ordinary workers.
It was very difficult to ask for leave during working hours. After all, it was hard to find a job now, and if you didn't work hard, you could lose your job at any time.
On the way to the gifted school, billboards for Stark Industries stood everywhere.
Tony's advertisements for the new energy era had been all over New York, and this mega-city would become the latest pilot city for new energy.
Because there was no competition from Oscorp, Stark Industries successfully obtained power orders from all of New York.
The latest Ark Energy reactor blocks would be mass-produced, and the replacement of this new energy source would reduce air pollution emissions in New York City by nearly 50%.
It would also reduce the damage and pollution to the urban environment caused by the heat island effect caused by nearly 80% of power generation.
It was a great invention, but behind every world-changing invention, there were always victims.
Just like when the first fully automatic textile machine appeared, more than three million female textile workers around the world lost their jobs in just ten years.
Nearly ten million people's income was affected.
Tony's new energy opened the prelude to a new era of mankind, but the first button in this magnificent movement wasn't very beautiful.
The Osborne Group laid off nearly a thousand former employees in the electric power sector in the New York area.
Max was one of them. He was a person who was easily overlooked and forgotten. He was just a lowly worker in the power grid.
But he had a grand wish. He wanted to design a new set of power grid pipelines to reduce the consumption in the transmission process.
It had to be known that eighty percent of the world's electricity was consumed in the transmission process.
In Mike's design, the network could reduce the loss to less than fifty percent.
He thought it would be a feat, and that he could bring about a new era of power transmission.
But Tony Stark's invention shattered all these dreams. The new energy module was small and light.
As long as it was installed in the household energy control equipment produced by Stark Industries, it could provide the electricity needs of a family of five for a year.
And big companies had better solutions.
From then on, power transmission would become history, and energy would enter an era of unprecedented low loss. It could even be called an era of zero loss.
All of Mike's hard work went down the drain, and the network design that he hadn't had time to submit to the Osborne Group had already been declared useless.
Before he could feel any more sadness, more bad news came. He had been laid off by the Osborne Group.
He had worked hard at the Osborne Group for so many years, and he had been laid off just like that?
The design that he had been so enthusiastic about bringing about a new revolution in the power grid had been eliminated before it had even been introduced?
Mike was indignant. He was furious. He needed to vent. He needed revenge.
Revenge on who? Revenge on that boastful playboy, of course.
And the company that had fired him at random.
Those rich people clearly owned the world. Why did they have to take away his humble dream?!
Now that Mike was here, he might not be able to change the world, but he had decided to teach Stark Industries and the Osborne Group a lesson.
