Chapter 1124 6.22 Exiles in New York Part [-]

"Mr. Wu, do you want to build SAS?" Just after Mr. Riley finished his introduction, another fat middle-aged man stood up excitedly.

"Yes, I want to build the Second Avenue subway line." Wu Chen nodded with a smile.

"That... that... that will cost a lot of money!" The middle-aged man swallowed his saliva and confirmed again.

"No problem." Wu Chen smiled with certainty.

A group of people looked at each other subconsciously at the same time. Mr. Riley turned around hastily and took out a roll of drawings wrapped in layers of greaseproof paper from the bookcase.After unfolding, it is the design blueprint of the Second Avenue Line that has undergone previous revisions.

According to the latest design, the Second Avenue subway line will be divided into four segments: the first segment will start from 63rd Street (Lexington Avenue) to 96th Street Station.This section is an extension of the Q line of the Broadway Express.The second segment is from 96th Street to Harlem/125th Street and is also an extension of the Q line.The third segment runs from 72nd Street Uptown to the Houston Street Station on the Lower East Side on the new T-Second Avenue Subway Line.The final fourth segment is an extension of the T line.From Houston Street Station, head south to Hanover Square in downtown.

In April 2007 after the third general strike, the Metropolitan Transportation Agency officially started construction, and it is expected that the first section of the project will be completed in 4.However, due to funding problems, the second, third and fourth paragraphs have not yet implemented government funds, and the New York City government expects to complete all construction projects around 2014.

After listening to Mr. Riley's explanation about the Second Avenue Line, Wu Chen immediately asked, "What's the situation now."

"Far below expectations, and even the first phase of the project has not yet been completed. A subway line is divided into four sections to complete because of financial considerations. However, with several battles between superheroes and aliens, Almost half of New York City was destroyed. Therefore, most of the municipal construction funds are used to repair damaged municipal facilities. The construction plan of SAS has been stranded indefinitely.” Mr. Riley sighed.When this ill-fated subway line will be opened to traffic, and whether he can see it in his lifetime, he has no expectations.

"I want to fully fund the construction of this subway line." Wu Chen said surprisingly.

"Conditions?" Mr. Riley asked solemnly to appease the excited crowd.

"Conditions..." Wu Chen leaned over to look at the design blueprint that had been revised many times, and stretched his fingers along the Second Avenue to the sea, connecting Governors Island and crossing the entire Upper New York Bay. Arrived in the St. George area (ST.GEORGE) on Staten Island.

"So, you want to extend the Second Avenue subway line, cross the entire upper New York Bay, and arrive at Staten Island?" Mr. Riley and the backbone of the labor union behind him were suddenly not calm.A subway line that runs through the entirety of New York!Not only is the line the longest, but it also ends the history of Staten Island without a subway!

"Mr. Wu, besides this, what other conditions do you have?" Mr. Riley asked eagerly.

"The operation and management of the subway is entrusted to you, but I need some special permissions." Wu Chen said his request: "For example, private trains and corresponding security permissions."

"Of course, of course." Mr. Riley nodded repeatedly.Just as the team owner has his own owner's box, this is also a privilege guaranteed by law.

"There is another problem. Mr. Wu must be mentally prepared." Mr. Riley said again: "Since 1940, New York has not had a private subway line. You may not be able to obtain the ownership of this subway line without the approval of the Department. However, I believe that the Metropolitan Transportation Authority will enter into a long-term repayment agreement with you. Every year, a considerable portion of the profits of this subway line will be used as repayment ...until the construction cost of this subway line and the interest that should be paid are paid off."

Wu Chen still cares about these?I built this subway to save more people, okay?

"No problem. But the premise is that this subway line must be actually operated by the labor union." Wu Chen sold it again.In doing so, it is nothing more than trying to tie the trade unions to their own chariot.Let the powerful trade unions fight with the New York government represented by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.Make sure that the construction of this subway line can proceed as soon as possible.

"Okay, Mr. Wu." Mr. Riley nodded solemnly.

In fact, from the union's point of view, Wu Chen did this out of self-interest.After all, he actually owns Staten Island.A fast subway line that runs through the entire Manhattan and is closely connected with History Island is like a major artery, continuously transporting the blood of civilization to Staten Island.

This is Wu Chen's profit point.By building this subway, he will reap handsome rewards.

The reason why they are willing to spend their own money to build a subway line, in the view of Mr. Riley and others, is the purpose.Just like after the subway is opened to traffic, the real estate along the line will skyrocket a lot.Once this underground railway is completed and Staten Island is fully integrated into the New York City subway network, the land price of the entire Staten Island will skyrocket!

Wu Chen's return is far more than what he paid for building a subway!

Therefore, Riley and others agreed that this is definitely a win-win situation.

Of course, this is also in line with their consistent expectations for big capitalists.It is not profitable to get up early.The reason why Wu Chen threw a big cake to the trade union was, in the final analysis, to grab greater benefits.However, the union was powerless to refuse this sweet big cake.Because this is the 100-year dream of New York subway people!

Given enough interest-driven, trade unions began to exert a strong energy.

Even just one night later, the mayor of New York personally called to ask Wu Chen what he really thought.After learning that Wu Chen really wanted to build the subway, the mayor of New York immediately felt relieved.In other words, during his term of office, it will be a great political asset to complete this century-old subway and solve the employment of thousands or even tens of thousands of people!

The next term is just around the corner wow!

The labor union is bottom-up, the mayor is top-down, and the Metropolitan Transportation Department sandwiched in the middle has been attacked from top to bottom.

After being fucked repeatedly, I was not a human being inside and out for a long time, and when I slapped my forehead, I realized.I am retarded!This shit was clearly discussed in advance, wow!

All obstacles are removed, everything will fall into place...

When the news of the revival of the Second Avenue subway line was confirmed by the city hall, and after seeing the final design plan announced to the public, everyone suddenly realized that Wu Chen had played a big game of chess!

Of course, this is all for the future.

After finishing the negotiation with the labor union, Wu Chen had just rushed back to White Swan when an anonymous phone rang.Wu Chen tried to connect, and after a series of coughs, an old voice spoke weakly: "Are you Wu Chen?"

"I am." Wu Chen had already guessed who she was.

"Hello, young man. Natasha asked me to call you."

"Yes, that's right. Where are you?" Sure enough, Wu Chen did not forget the Widow Sister's advice.

"Please come to this address." The smartphone quickly marked the location that the 'dance teacher' said.Compared with the location of the communication terminal, it is determined to be the same address.

"Okay." Wu Chen hung up the phone friendly.

After thinking about it, I called the widow again.The result shows that it is not in the service area.But what the hell is the service area?Accustomed to the on-call quantum communication, Wu Chen is becoming more and more unaccustomed to these low-tech backward technologies.

The coordinates are located in Queens District, New York (Queen District).

Queens is the largest of the five boroughs of New York.Known for its diverse population.Except for whites who account for about half, the proportions of Asians, Latinos, and Africans are all higher than the national average.Among the Asian population, Indian, Chinese, and Korean are the three major groups.Flushing and Elmhurst, where the Asian population is concentrated, and Jamaica, where the Latino population is concentrated, are the main business districts in the area.

The best part of Queens should belong to Forest Hill.The residences are all TownHouse (similar to townhouses), which is a place where the middle and upper class yearn for, and one of the most sought-after residential areas in New York.

Wu Chen's destination is here.

An exquisite three-storey villa.

Waist-length low walls and black iron railings surround a beautiful private garden with a delicate and elegant fountain.The beautiful natural beauty has been left unattended for a long time, full of exuberant wild charm.Standing at the entrance where few people seemed to patronize, Wu Chen rang the doorbell.

After a while, the black railing door automatically popped open.Wu Chen pushed the door open, walked along the gravel-paved road, and walked up to the porch.

The door of the villa also opens by itself like the courtyard door.Wu Chen sniffed, and there seemed to be a faint smell of rotten wood in the stale air.It's like the smell of wood soaked in water for a long time.Wu Chen once visited Xidi Hongcun in Anhui during the rainy season, and those centuries-old wooden buildings would exude a similar atmosphere.

New York should also be a rainy city.

"The rain in New York is the rain of the exiles. It is abundant, continuous, dense, tirelessly pouring down the streets between the towering concrete buildings, and the streets suddenly sink into the well of darkness. Hide in the taxi, stop at the red light , green light, the wipers in front of you swing monotonously and quickly, sweeping the rainwater from the windshield to one side, and you will suddenly fall into a trap. You are sure that you will not be able to escape these square cells after driving like this for several hours Or pools, wading pool after pool, without hope of seeing a hill or a real tree. White skyscrapers looming in the gray mist, like huge tombstones erected for the city of the dead, The body of the building seems to be swaying slightly. At this time, the building is empty. With a population of 800 million, the smell of reinforced concrete, and the madness of the builders, but the one that goes straight into the clouds is loneliness. Even if I hug all the people in the world, there is no Can't protect me." (Camus: "Rain in New York")

Walking into this villa, Wu Chen suddenly felt an inexplicable touch.Although he knew that the sun was shining outside and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, his mood was as gloomy and dull as the rainy season in New York.

This is the exile's villa.

Just like the identity of the black widow.

Full of bright candy colors from the 50s, it can be seen everywhere in the living room and corridor on the first floor.Those beautiful city-themed oil-painted decorative paintings, although not from some famous artists, are still pleasing to the eye.The hostess of the villa is obviously full of extremely high artistic sentiment.These are probably the casual works of street painters, but they are all full of strong emotions and love for this city.

Wu Chen walked up the stairs, looking at each painting carefully.He didn't even notice that although the decorative paintings were of different styles, they were all depicting the urban style of New York without exception, and there was not a single portrait of a person.Not even a picture frame to hang the pictures.

The master bedroom on the second floor was very dark. Through a slightly opened door, Wu Chen could see the warm light from the old-fashioned fluorescent lamp.

Gently knocking on the wooden door, the voice on the phone came leisurely from behind the door.

"come in."

Wu Chen tried to open the door, thinking it would be like the situation when he first met Mrs. Spiderweb.But when the wooden door was pushed to the end, I saw a hale and hearty old woman with white hair sitting on the sofa by the window. in a sweater.

Wu Chen doesn't remember the old hero.

"Sit down." The old woman said without raising her head.

"Oh." Wu Chen sat on the tight couch facing the door.

The bedroom is large, so a simple reception area can be placed near the door.The bathroom separates the reception area and the bedroom just where it is, and passes through a window-side corridor to pass through the two areas.

It wasn't until the soap opera was over that the old woman jumped out of the same plot.Chong Wu Chen said cheerfully: "Did Natasha tell you who I am?"

Wu Chen nodded: "She said you are her 'dance teacher'."

"Dance teacher..." The old woman smiled meaningfully: "That's right, I taught her a whole set of the dance of death. Just like what my dance teacher taught me."

Wu Chen immediately grasped the point: "So, you are also a black widow?"

"If you're talking about the well-known code name, I am. Moreover, I should be the first generation of Black Widow."

I go! ! !

The original Black Widow!

Wu Chen was so excited that he flew up, okay? !

In other words, Wu Chen has only heard of the second-generation black widow!Could it be that before the widow sister?

Seeing Wu Chen's face full of surprise mixed with surprise, the old woman slowly put down the knitting needle in her hand and took off her thick reading glasses: "It's our first meeting, young man, they call me Dottie."

Dotty?

dotty...

Dotty? !

Dotty! ! !

Femme fatale, Dottie Underwood (Dottie Underwood).

Appeared in seasons [-] and [-] of the Marvel spin-off Agent Carter.A super agent who was brainwashed and trained by the KGB of the former Soviet Union from an early age!An efficient killer!A femme fatale who loves sharing bread and sleeping in handcuffs!

Not just a spin-off, but even in the second half of Captain America: Civil War, the captain chats with the recovered Winter Soldier about the past.Bucky, who has not yet become a Winter Soldier, said that he once chased a girl named 'Dottie', and this girl is, in all likelihood, Dottie Underwood!

Thinking about it now, in some of the flashing pictures of the widow sister, there is indeed a mentor who should be very beautiful when she was young, guiding her from the side!Could it be that this mentor is Dotty Underwood!

The original Black Widow!
