Mixed in Marvel as a sword fairy

Chapter 002 Rainforest Cafe

After a simple wash, Zhang Taibai got dressed and walked downstairs.

This small building has a total of three floors. The bottom floor is the 'Rainforest.Café' that Zhang Taibai bought with many years of savings. It specializes in tropical rainforest style and is considered a small restaurant in the nearby blocks. A famous store.

The previous shop owner was also of Chinese descent. After giving the business to Zhang Taibai, he helped him continue the business for more than three months and claimed that Zhang Taibai was their cousin.

In addition, Zhang Taibai strictly abides by the business model of the original store owner, so the old customers have basically not transferred, and he does not have to worry too much about promotion.

A specialty coffee shop with many regular customers has no worries about business.

Zhang Taibai lives on the third floor, and the rooms on the second floor are temporarily used as storage rooms and guest rooms, but those two guest rooms are generally not very useful.

In fact, he can rent it out, but he is not short of money now and is too lazy to rent the room to someone he doesn't know, so he just wants to keep it quiet.

When Zhang Taibai came to the first floor, the coffee shop had not opened yet, but several employees had already come to the shop in advance to clean and make preparations.

"Hey! Good morning, boss, why did you get up so early today?" The old black man wearing a khaki leather hat sat at the cashier and waved to Zhang Taibai, with half an uneaten hot dog in his hand.

"Old Earl, why don't you just keep talking? The boss didn't get up at this time?" On the other side, a blond white guy was wiping the table and wearing a work uniform with the words 'Rainforest Cafe' on the chest. The girl said angrily to the cashier.

This work clothes was specially designed by a designer by the previous shop owner. I have to say that the style is still very unique - a full-body skirt that is completely green and reaches almost to the knees, plus a cartoon-style rainforest animal waistband, which is quite unique. Amorous, yet friendly.Especially when worn on the curvy body of the blonde waitress, it looks uniquely beautiful.

"Messelin, you little girl, you care so much about the boss, do you want to be the boss's wife?" the old black man Earl joked, and pretended to be serious, "If you really have this intention, you have to hold on tight. Yeah, I've seen quite a few female customers ogling the boss recently..."

"go to hell!"

Messelin's face suddenly turned red and he looked away.

"Hey, you girl can't really..."

Seeing her reaction, Old Earl wanted to continue.

But Zhang Taibai rolled his eyes and interrupted, "Okay, Old Earl, stop bullying her, finish your breakfast quickly, and prepare to open the door for business."

"Okay." Old Earl said with a smile.

After Zhang Taibai inspected the preparations, he opened the door of the coffee shop himself.

The door opened at just seven o'clock, and the street in front of the door was still empty.

"Good morning, Zhang——"

As soon as Zhang Taibai opened the door, a middle-aged man wearing a brown hat and a mustache walked in from the door, carrying a black briefcase.

"It's early for you. What would you like to eat today?" Zhang Taibai smiled enthusiastically when he saw the visitor.

This middle-aged man with a mustache is a regular customer of the cafe, and his name is Lao Dugan.

Old Dugan comes here almost every day to take care of business, and he is very punctual. He usually comes as soon as the door opens, and Zhang Taibai is used to it.

"A bacon and egg set meal, and a glass of 'Rainforest Special'." Old Duggan sat at his usual spot, taking off his hat and saying with a smile.

"Bacon and eggs set meal, and a cup of Lao Dugan's 'Rainforest Special', the old rules -" Zhang Taibai ordered to the bar, and then sat down opposite Lao Dugan.

'Rainforest Special' is one of the specialty coffees of this cafe. It tastes very fragrant but a bit bitter. Lao Dugan usually adds an extra serving of sugar and a small cup of milk.

However, as a regular customer, there is no need to repeat the request every time. Zhang Taibai told the bar counter the name of Old Dugan and the old rules, and the other party naturally understood.

"What's the latest news?" Zhang Taibai asked with a smile after sitting down.

Zhang Taibai knew that Old Dugen worked in the government department, but he was not clear about what kind of work he did. However, this did not affect him from chatting with Old Dugan about these current events.

"What news can there be? I'm still cleaning up the mess from last time." Old Dugan shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Most of the shops and office buildings near the 'Stark Building' were seriously damaged, and there were many casualties. They all need to be resolved and dealt with one by one, which is very troublesome.”

"This is already a blessing among misfortunes, isn't it? To be honest, without the efforts of the Avengers, New York would not be the only one who would be affected.

. "Zhang Taibai shrugged.

"That's true, but can you still expect the families of the victims to reason with you? Not everyone has the spirit of self-sacrifice..." Old Dugan said with a sad face.

"That's true. It's really hard on you." Zhang Taibai said sympathetically.

"That's all we can do." Old Dugan smiled wryly and spread his hands.

After the two chatted for a while, Old Dugan's breakfast and coffee were ready, and Zhang Taibai also got up and left.As a boss, you should occasionally communicate with old customers to make them feel at home, but you must also know when to stop.

Soon, as the first customer, Old Dugan, took his seat, many more customers came in one after another, including old customers who came often and new customers who were relatively unfamiliar.

It wasn't until after nine o'clock that it became a little deserted.

Because at this time, except for those who were late, the office workers had already started working, and there were only a few old men and old ladies still chatting in the store.

"Boss, here is your package——"

Zhang Taibai, who was being chatted with by an old white lady, suddenly heard Old Earl's call from the cashier at the door.

Hearing this, Zhang Taibai said hello to the old lady and walked towards the cashier.

"Who sent it here?" Zhang Taibai glanced at the package and then asked Old Earl.

"I didn't pay much attention, but he was a little unfamiliar. He didn't seem to be a courier from our area. He just said it was your thing and left." Old Earl recalled it for a moment, and then asked, "Is that right? Is there any problem? Do you need me to adjust the monitoring?"

"No, I'm just asking. It should be something I ordered a few days ago." Hearing Old Earl's answer, combined with the size of the rectangular package placed on the counter, Zhang Taibai had already roughly guessed what was inside. What? He suppressed the excitement in his heart, shook his head and said to Old Earl.

"Tsk tsk, boss, what good thing did you order here? I think the guy seems to have some energy when holding it..." Old Earl said as he had nothing to do.

"It's just a high imitation model, not a good thing." Zhang Taibai picked up the package and said to Old Earl, "I'll go up first to see if there's any damage. You can help me keep an eye on it here."

"okay!"

Old Earl patted his chest to reassure Zhang Taibai.

As for Zhang Taibai's remarks, he had no doubts.Because Zhang Taibai on this earth has the habit of collecting models, which is one of his few hobbies as an orphan, the old people in the store have long been used to it, so they don't think much about it.

After Zhang Taibai gave a few instructions to the other clerks, he walked upstairs.

This time, he did not return to the bedroom on the third floor, but came to a locked storage room on the second floor.After confirming that no one was following, Zhang Taibai took out a key and opened the door, then entered directly, then closed the door again and locked it from the inside.

Snapped--!

After placing the rectangular package on the table, he snapped his fingers.

The next moment, a phantom that seemed both real and illusory appeared in front of his eyes.

This phantom looks like a book, a slightly old ancient book as thick as an adult man's fist, with four big characters on the cover - "Taibai Sword Code".

Yes, this broken book was the culprit that brought him here, and the way this unfortunate broken book followed him through was so weird!

While he was researching, he probably figured out the current state of this broken book:

First, it seemed that only he could see the appearance of the broken book. In the eyes of others, the shadow of the broken book did not exist, just like the air.

Secondly, the phantom of this broken book cannot be touched, not even by himself. He can only use his mind to control its turning pages, appearing or disappearing... Summoning this by snapping his fingers is purely for effect. It's just a joke and has no practical significance.

Thirdly, right now, he can only open the first few dozen pages of this crappy book at most.Although he didn't know exactly how many pages this shabby book had, if he only compared it by thickness, the dozens of pages he could open might not be even one percent as thick as this shabby book.

Fourthly, it was precisely because of the contents of these dozens of pages that he could open that made him feel a little more at ease and gave him the confidence to continue to stay in this chaotic New York City.

So far, that's probably all he can figure out.

As for why he was so cautious even though no one else could see it, it was just a precaution.After all, this shabby book can now be said to be his greatest source of confidence in settling down. In international terms, it is his 'golden finger'.

There is nothing wrong with being careful when dealing with 'Goldfinger'.
