Red Dead Redemption

After the first meeting, Steve was already very angry when he got into the car on the way back: "They are too much, Hong can't step back, and even I won't agree to such a rude request."

Yelena also said coldly: "51% equity, they dare to think about it."

"Of course they dare to think, because they are really rich." Natasha looked out the window. Although the street had been cleared, the ruins piled up on both sides were still messy, and most of the people who appeared from time to time had their heads lowered and unhappy. She couldn’t help but say: “But they’re not going to throw money at random on rebuilding projects in New York, because it might not be profitable, or it’s going to be profitable for too long.”

Xu Wenwu looked indifferent. He said, "This is not the capital. Although Wall Street is damaged, at least it hasn't collapsed. The key people have all left early, so the rest are obviously not that important."

Steve said with a gloomy face: "They don't want to set aside more taxpayer money to help them get back to life. After the first batch of funds was allocated, they have been discussing, the news is broadcast every day, but The result has never been seen, and no one knows when they will fight."

Xu Wenwu said indifferently: "As long as they show an attitude of contention, when outsiders start to get impatient, they will put a further sum, and then continue to fight until this New York relies on the city, the state or other methods to sort it out. It's almost there, and they'll put the last one in. That way, it's less effort, but it feels a lot."

Steve suddenly stared, and although he didn't ask a question, his eyes were clear.

He couldn't believe that the truth would really be what Xu Wenwu said.

At this time, Natasha frowned slightly and said: "Mr. Xu's statement is very likely to be true, but the New York City government's financial situation is average, and the state government may not have much spare capacity to support New York City. Nearly half of the tax revenue comes from real estate, and half of the tax revenue comes from the 1% of taxpayers. But this disaster basically destroyed the real estate, and the 1% of taxpayers will definitely not come back for a while.”

"Isn't New York losing hope of recovery?" Steve couldn't believe it.

"That's not true. It's just that the speed will be slower. The Federation is not in a hurry. Some people are in a hurry. Stark donated a lot. Although there are not many people like him, they will gather together into a river. There will always be enough day."

"why?"

Natasha: "Because most of the properties you see destroyed are wealthy people's properties, they have unavoidably lost some of them due to force majeure, and they are unable or do not want to invest in the short term. Serious, there is always a way to move from this dilapidated place to another place. Also, don’t forget the New York War two years ago, no one knows whether aliens will come to New York in the future.”

Yelena pouted: "But it's not their own money that they want to invest, it's taxes. Who doesn't know that almost everything they do here has to pay taxes, and the tax collection here is famous and strict in the world, said Maybe... in the future, will they even want to collect taxes on illegal and criminal transactions?"

Steve was speechless with his mouth open, and the light in his eyes seemed to dim a little at this moment.

Xu Wenwu, Natasha, and Yelena, these three people, no matter what angle they stand in, will definitely not give a good evaluation to the United States. Steve knows this well, and what makes him most painful, disappointed and even Desperate:

The three of them were right.

"The people are not sympathetic, they are insatiable." In the end, Xu Wenwu ended the discussion with one sentence.

"What do you mean?" the three asked in unison.

Xu Wenwu explained briefly.

"The way you speak, the tone, and the content of what you say are very similar to Hong. And what you said makes sense." Steve smiled bitterly in addition to his emotions.

"We have the same background." Xu Wenwu responded with a smile on his face: "They should know that this condition cannot be agreed, whether they really want it or pretend to be a test, this time I'm afraid it's not as simple as just targeting the Foundation."

Natasha nodded immediately when she heard the words: "I also think they have another purpose."

"What purpose?" Yelena was puzzled.

Steve said with a complicated expression: "Maybe... it's Hong."

Yelena was instantly stunned: "They are dying?"

Natasha shook her head: "It's not that they don't want to die. They are willing to ignore risks or face them for their own interests and demands. Haven't these people been like this all the time?"

Hearing this sentence, Steve's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered a book.

It was the book that Hong Fei gave him together with the armor, called: Das Kapital.

Das Kapital is not a book to teach everyone how to operate capital, but a "working class bible" that analyzes the capitalist mode of production, exposes the **** reality behind capital, and conducts a rational, orderly, and thorough critique of it. !

Back at the temporary stronghold, Steve's emotions were barely concealed on the surface.

When he came to the Avengers' station, as soon as he entered the door, everyone noticed his abnormality.

Tony was the first to get up and go forward: "Steve, what's the matter?"

"nothing."

Steve responded in a perfunctory way, skipping Tony and sitting directly on the sofa.

Seeing him like this, other people have guesses in their hearts, but it is not easy to continue to ask.

Tony moved his eyes and said: "You came back just in time, we are discussing the establishment of a brand new Avengers base outside New York, this time does not necessarily need a building, but it must be a base with almost perfect function, all Avengers and logistics The day-to-day work, training and life of support staff will be centralized and, more importantly, it will be safe."

During the Great War in New York, the Stark Building was the primary target.

During the Dark Invasion, the converted Avengers Tower was also swept away by the Dark Elves.

This time, Tony abandoned that inauspicious place in favor of building an Avengers base outside New York.

However, hearing his words, Steve couldn't help but feel heavier. Even the super-rich and superheroes like Tony Stark want to leave the New York City area and look elsewhere, so isn't everyone else more reason to abandon the city?

Thinking of this, Steve was sullen and did not forget to sigh heavily, but it sounded almost like an angry hum.

"There is no need to build the Avengers base."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone looked at it.

Tony frowned. "Why?"

"The Avengers were formed under the leadership of S.H.I.E.L.D., but you don't need me to tell you that the past performance of S.H.I.E.L.D. has proved that they are not worth relying on."

The gap between Tony's eyebrows was deeper: "You want to disband the Avengers?"

"No, it's not a dissolution, at least as long as people still recognize the Avengers, we should always be the Avengers."

At this time, Barton suddenly interjected: "You want to get out of S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

"Yes." Steve made no secret of his thoughts.

Rhodes shrugged and said, "But we are still in the temporary base of SHIELD."

"You also said that this is a temporary base. Has there been any special arrangement for the SHIELD headquarters since the incident happened? They bypassed this sad city on the grounds that they are a global organization, but I didn't have it before. Found out that they would define themselves by this concept. Now, the agents of SHIELD in New York City are members of the New York branch organized by Hill.”

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Tony said: "What do you mean, we all entered the Super Energy Foundation and will act in the name of the Avengers of the Super Energy Foundation in the future?"

"Yes!" Steve still nodded his head frankly: "When necessary, we can give up the identity label of Avengers. What we need to do is not only revenge, but also confrontation, prevention and assistance, etc. We can and should undertake more responsibility."

For a time, everyone looked inexplicable.

Tony glanced around without a trace, immediately clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and then said: "The captain gave us a brand new proposal, everyone should go down and think about it, and Steve and I will meet again in a while. Everyone is invited to discuss this matter.”

After everyone got up and left, Tony sat down beside Steve with his unresolved brows.

"I knew you would have this idea, but you seem to be in a hurry. What happened?"

...

Snake Shield headquarters.

Pierce sat on the soft chair with a radiant expression on his face, and the smile on his face didn't seem to disappear since he first learned that the Dragon King agreed to join Hydra.

Within Hydra, different branches have different ideals and aspirations, and after these different ideals are confirmed by everyone, they can obtain corresponding support from other branches. The highest goal of Snake Shield is to rule the world, and behind this goal is also injected with a brainwashing declaration similar to "Humans do not need freedom, freedom leads to chaos".

"How are you getting ready?"

Rumlow said unsmilingly: "The last round of testing started last night~www.NovelMTL.com~ Pierce nodded with satisfaction. "Where's Fury? "

"He is very conscientious." A strange smile appeared on Rumlow's face. "If it weren't for him, I don't think the plan would have gone so fast."

Pierce couldn't help but sigh: "Fury is a very capable person, I knew it when I first met him, and when he was the director of SHIELD, his way of doing things was even more like us than us. Hydra."

Rumlow nodded in agreement. He is the captain of the SHIELD secret service, and he is familiar with Fury. He himself has done a lot of work for Fury similar to Hydra, so when he was in SHIELD It is also handy.

"When the plan is done, if he's smart enough, he can be spared, but it's better not to let him have the opportunity to take power, and to continue to serve us like now is really showing his value."

"I'll keep an eye on him."

"No, I don't need it now. Give him rights and freedom. As long as he doesn't touch the core of the plan, let him do it. He will definitely do well. I always think so."

Rumlow laughed maliciously.

Pierce thought for a while and said: "Next, the Dragon King should attend a welcome banquet between the leaders. At that time, I won't show up at the beginning, but others will explain to him the importance of the insight plan, as long as he No objection, our probability of success is 100%.”

"What if he objected?"

"Then he will be the first step to become the target of hundreds of countries in this world, and we will also be the first step to blow him, Sokovia and the manor in New York to the sky... with nuclear bombs!"
