American Comics Plane Trader

Driven by Margot, the car quickly returned to downtown Chicago.

Along the way, due to Josie's deliberate compliments and her knowledge as a time traveler, Margot had a pleasant chat with him.

As a result, Josie gained a certain degree of trust from the beautiful young woman, and found out the general family situation of the beautiful young woman through conversation.

As Margot said before, she is not a star, but a housewife.

It's just that this housewife is not Common as Josie thought.

Her husband is a tennis star who has been active in various venues across the United States all year round.

But that's not the point.

The focus is still on Margot herself.

Her father was a well-known jeweler and real estate agent in Chicago, and she was an only daughter.

After her father passed away two years ago, all the property naturally fell to her.

So whether it is luxury cars, diamond rings and other luxury items, they are actually spent on her own money.

In contrast, although her husband is a tennis star, the income of a sports star in this era is completely incomparable with that of later generations. He cannot afford the family's luxurious tips at all. Instead, in order to maintain a decent life, he still needs Margot's support. .

Therefore, Margot is indeed a proper rich woman.

In this regard, Josie has to lament her own shit luck, just hitch a ride and meet such an Apex woman.

Just from the conversation along the way, Josie can also feel that this lady is relatively simple-minded, and she is not satisfied with her current life, especially her husband who is away all the year round.

Although Josie would not have any special thoughts on Margot because of this, there is no doubt that it is not a bad thing to know such a woman in Chicago's high society.

Especially the other party's deceased father was still a jeweler, which means that if Josie can get on well with Margot, then he might have a way to safely sell gold in the future—for the jewelry industry, Hundreds of thousands of kilograms of gold, that's not a problem.

And this is also a matter of two interests.

Because for jewelers, it is also a good thing to have one more source of goods. The Ross Fu government's control of private gold makes it not easy for the jewelry industry to obtain enough gold.

Of course, while extracting Margot's personal information, Josie quietly revealed some information about herself.

Such as the death of a parent, and being alone and looking for a new place to live.

And this aroused Margot's sympathy to a certain extent, and she took the initiative to provide Josie with help.

"Speaking of houses, my father once developed a community in Evanston. Although it is not very good, it is also a very safe community. Most of them have been sold, but I still have There are a few buildings, you can go and have a look." Margot recommended.

"Oh? I don't know the price? If it's too expensive, I might not be able to afford it." Hearing Margot's words, Josie asked a little moved.

Evanston is a satellite city of Chicago.

But this does not mean that Evanston is bad, on the contrary, it is not good.

Because that is in the north of the city of Chicago.

Where is North Chicago? It was a serious rich area.

Although Evanston is only a satellite city, the environment does not have to be much worse than the North District, where the famous Northwestern University is located.

The place where Josie lived before was in the Near North District. Although it also brought the North, but there was an extra word near, which was very different from the real northern urban environment.

Of course, it is much better than the Black community in the south, Little Italy and Chinatown in the southwest, and the Irish community in the west.

What? You ask why there is no East End?

Of course it can't be, because to the east is Lake Michigan...

So there is no strict East District, only the Lakeside District.

"Buy? You don't need to buy it. You can just live in it. It's vacant anyway." Margot shook her head. "You're just a child. When you're an adult and work, there's still time to talk about it."

She considered Josie sincerely. Now that Josie is alone and under the age of 16, it is basically difficult to find a good job.

"How can that work? Ma'am, don't worry, my parents left some assets before they passed away. Although they are not a lot, they are basically enough to buy an ordinary house and support me until I reach adulthood." However, for Margot's kindness, , Josie refused without even thinking about it.

Although he did intend to use Margot, he would not covet this advantage.

Although the housing prices in Evanston will certainly not be low, they will not be sky-high.

"Okay, but there's no need to be too anxious about the price. Go and see first. Do you have anything else to do? If not, why don't I take you to see it now." Margot said.

"Uh, there's nothing wrong with that, but I haven't had lunch yet. Ma'am, since you came back from outside the city, you probably haven't had time to eat yet, right?" He couldn't bear to refuse, but before that, he still wanted to fill his stomach.

After all, Josie is now at the age of rapid body growth, and he is so hungry that he doesn't eat a meal.

And Margot went to ride a horse at the horse farm in the west of Chicago in the morning—well, that was also Margot’s private property—according to the time when she came back, she probably didn’t have lunch.

"When I was at the racecourse, I had a little refreshment, but after you said it, I did feel a little hungry." Margot nodded.

"Then can I have the honor to invite the beautiful lady to have lunch? It's also my thanks." Josie immediately invited.

"Of course! I just know that there is a very good restaurant nearby." Margot readily agreed, then turned the steering wheel and drove towards the lakeside.

About ten minutes later, I came to a very high-end restaurant by the lake.

It's just that what Josie had expected was that this restaurant, which Margot said was very good, was not the French restaurant he had guessed, but a Turkish restaurant.

Well, it is one of the three major cuisines in the world.

To be honest, no matter in his previous life or in this life, Josie hasn't eaten much Turkish food yet.

Of course, there are no three major cuisines in this era, especially Chinese food, which will occupy the top three major cuisines in the world in the future, is not popular in this era.

No way, the limitations of the times.

After all, catering is also a kind of culture, so its popularity has a lot to do with the prosperity of the country.

The real popularity of Chinese food in the world did not start until the scenes of Nixon's visit in 1972 aired in the United States.

Turkish cuisine is different. Turkey is located at the junction of Europe, Asia and Africa, and has more contact with Europe. It is greatly influenced by Mediterranean culture. The cooking method, serving procedures and dining etiquette are also closer to Western food. Naturally, it is more famous in Europe. .

So in this era, for European and American countries, the popularity of Turkish food is much higher than that of Chinese food.
