Stark Industries is one of the landmarks of New York's Manhattan. A skyscraper hundreds of stories high, it is one of the tallest buildings in New York.
It is taller than the Oscorp Building, which is also a multinational conglomerate. Li Jie parked the dining car in front of the Stark Industries building.
"Hello, Mr. Tony Stark seems to be looking for me." Li Jie went directly to the front desk of Stark Industries and said to the receptionist.
"Hello, who are you?" The receptionist said politely. "Making burgers." Li Jie's answer was concise.
"Well, please wait a moment, I'll ask." The receptionist looked at Li Jie with a puzzled look for a while before confirming by phone.
About three minutes later, a woman in a business suit with beautiful blonde hair came to Li Jie.
"Hello, I think you are Mr. Jason," said the blonde beauty. "I'm Mr. Tony's personal assistant, Peibo Boz. You can call me Peibo."
"Hello, Ms. Peibo, does Mr. Tony Stark need hamburger delivery service?" Li Jie shook hands with Peibo politely.
"Oh yes, but he prefers to eat on-site. If you can, it's best to bring ingredients. There is a kitchen above that can process food. "Peibo said with a smile.
Li Jie said that the customer's requirements must be met, so he brought ingredients and some kitchenware from the dining car and followed Peibo to the top floor of the Stark Industries building.
Tony Stark's own mansion is actually located on the edge of Malibu Beach, California. But because the company's headquarters is in New York.
So Tony has to stay in New York half of the time. The top five floors of Stark Industries have been transformed into his personal office and living space.
What should a billionaire's place look like? Naturally, it is comfortable and in line with the owner's wishes. In addition, Tony Stark has a good taste in life.
Well, that may not be the right way to put it. It should be said that Miss Pepper Peppermint had a good taste in life, so Tony's living quarters were very beautiful and tasteful.
After all, Tony himself was a genius in science and technology, but he seemed to be an idiot in life. He would never learn to take care of himself. Without Pei Bo, he wouldn't even remember his social security account number.
"Hey, isn't that our hamburger guy?! Hurry up and give me a hamburger. I'm starving. "Tony saw Li Jie appear and called him from afar.
"Mr. Tony, I really don't understand. As a billionaire, why are you so obsessed with hamburgers? " Li Jie came to an open kitchen under Pei Bo's guidance and asked while preparing the food.
"That's a good question! First of all, I'm a patriot, "Tony said as he took out a bottle of sparkling wine from the liquor cabinet. "I like America, including all kinds of American food, especially the food that represents America."
"And hamburgers are the food that represents America. Since 1850, when the first German immigrants brought beef patties to America," Tony said as he took out a few goblets from the liquor cabinet.
"The immigrants from the New World began to improve this patty until the early 20th century. It was the first time the modern hamburger appeared. A delicious and juicy hamburger with vegetables and cheese sandwiched between two pieces of fragrant bread. "Tony's expression was very exaggerated as he spoke, as if he was about to pass out.
"This simple and fast food became popular with the rise of America. Countless workers and inventors in the second industrial revolution worked hard while eating hamburgers," Tony said as he began to pour the sparkling wine into the goblet.
"Including the two great depressions that America experienced, hamburgers were the cheapest and most delicious food. It represents the rise of America in modern times, and it is the soul food of this country, "Tony said as he poured the wine.
Li Jie was dumbfounded. How could a hamburger be so classy? And it was related to the rise of the country and the national spirit! Brother, are you really not messing with me?
"You just want to eat high-calorie food, right?" Pei Bo easily exposed Tony's excuse. "Your nutrition consultant reminded me that you need to adjust your diet."
"You always like to stay up late to work, and eat too much high-calorie food. It's not good for your health," Pei Bo continued to nag. Without her care, it was hard to imagine what Tony's life would be like.
Tony turned his head and made a funny face at an angle that Pei Bo couldn't see. He imitated Pei Bo's words, but he didn't make any sound. He only opened and closed his mouth.
Li Jie saw Tony's funny face and almost burst out laughing. But in the end, he held it back. After all, the customer was God, and it wasn't good to expose God.
"I think what Miss Pei Bo said makes sense. Since Mr. Tony can't eat high-calorie food, then maybe I can change to a new way," Li Jie thought that Pei Bo's concern for Tony was really considerate, so he said.
"Change to a new way? Oh, no, no, kid, I just want to eat the special hamburger. " Tony handed a glass of sparkling wine to Pei Bo and put another glass of sparkling wine on the table in front of Li Jie. When he heard that Li Jie wanted to change to a new way, he rejected it.
"What way?" Miss Pei Bo, the real boss here, asked.
"Steamed hamburgers, a Turkish way, steamed with water. It won't be too high in calories, and it can reduce the intake of fat, and it's still delicious, "Li Jie said the dish he was going to cook.
"No ~ I don't want to." Tony refused without even thinking. "Sounds good, let's make this!" Miss Pei Bo liked it very much, and the steamed hamburgers sounded much healthier.
"Tony, I think you can try it, and steamed hamburgers sounds good, I can eat with you." As a beauty, Pei Bo had always paid attention to maintaining her figure, and she had never been interested in high-calorie food like hamburgers.
When he heard that Pei Bo was willing to eat hamburgers with him, Tony had nothing to say. He just glared at Li Jie and took the sparkling wine that was just placed in front of Li Jie and drank it himself.
Well, although Tony was in his early thirties, he was still a childish person. Li Jie had long known that this billionaire's character was not reliable, and he had been waiting for him to become Iron Man and go through a lot of training.
Tony Stark's character would really be stable, and at that time, Tony would be a trustworthy friend. Now, he was just a playboy who did whatever he wanted.
"Well, it really smells good, no wonder Tony likes your hamburgers so much." Little Chili Pepper Pei Bo praised when she smelled the aroma of Li Jie's cooking.
"Because I added some spices that only Asians would use, which is relatively rare in Western cuisine. I think the food produced by the collision of these different regions is more tempting. "Li Jie showed off proudly.
"Can you teach me some simple and easy to cook exotic dishes? For example, Southeast Asia. "Pei Bo asked Li Jie about some simple and easy to cook dishes with great interest.
"Okay, Pei Bo, don't disturb our chef." Tony gently pulled Pei Bo away. For Tony, Pei Bo was very important and not for sale. No matter how many women he had on the outside, his only true love was Pei Bo.
So he had always disliked Pei Bo being intimate with other men, even if the other person was just a seventeen-year-old boy.
"I think our chef needs to work harder." Tony randomly made up an excuse. "Maybe we should talk about going to Las Vegas for the Apex Awards Banquet."
"Ha ~ You will go to the banquet and not find some beauties to play a few rounds in the casino?" Pei Bo obviously did not believe in Tony's self-discipline and said in a tone that said "don't lie to me."
"Maybe, I mean maybe. You know, Las Vegas is just a place to play a few rounds, I don't know why they chose to hold the banquet there. "Tony was obviously nervous about Little Chili Pepper's question.
"If they held the banquet in New York, I think there wouldn't be a problem." Tony used an extremely lame excuse to explain.
Anyway, he was not the one in the wrong, the award committee was in the wrong. They must be crazy to hold the banquet in Las Vegas. Anyway, this was Tony's logic, and he had to admit that it was perfect.
"Okay ~ Tony, I don't care if you attend the Apex Awards Banquet or not." Pei Bo was too lazy to deal with Tony's lame excuse. "But I hope you can be on time and give a perfect demonstration to the military generals."
"You have to know that the military's purchase of Jericho missiles is as high as 2 billion USD." Pei Bo reminded Tony of the importance of this business.
"Okay ~ Okay! I know ~ I know, I will introduce it to the generals. "Tony said helplessly. "Where did I say to put the test site?"
"Fu Fu Fu!!" Pei Bo was completely speechless at his boss.
