Chapter 143 People always change

After listening to Carl's great truth, Wanda thought: "So it's because I'm too strict that Pietro has never been mature enough?
But I just don’t want to see him learn bad things. I feel like it’s because bad company breeds bad things.”

At the end, Wanda stared at Carl.

"Hehe." Carl smiled awkwardly and turned to talk about Pietro.

"By the way, wasn't Columbia University destroyed by a nuclear explosion? Could it be that some scapegoat paid for its reconstruction?"

Wanda pushed away the claws that were trying to do something naughty, and said unhappily: "I am the one who got taken advantage of!"

Red Queen projected a certificate of free donation, and Wanda pointed and explained:
"The former Columbia University Board of Trustees launched a fundraising campaign to rebuild the school, and I donated 200 tons of steel."

Karl was somewhat speechless and said: “To be honest, there should be few original professors, teachers, and even students of Columbia University who are still alive, right?
Even with the current situation in America, can we gather enough teachers to rebuild a higher education institution?"

Wanda's pretty face began to turn red, and someone's big carrot was eye-catching.

"Don't come close. Osborne Group, Hammer Industries, and many other large consortiums are contributing manpower and resources. It shouldn't be difficult to rebuild a university."

Carl was a little surprised when he saw this. The American people are now unable to get enough food to eat, and the powerful people still have the mind to rebuild the school?
“These powerful people are very shrewd, probably for the sake of cultivating elite offspring.

Maybe there are deeper reasons, such as

Wanda was confused: "Like what? You. Uh-huh"

As for the deeper reasons, Carl would have to discuss them slowly with the little beauty.

The next day.

After Captain America was escorted back to the Avengers by Umbrella's super-powered soldiers, he also brought back a sky-high bill.

When Hei Lu Dan saw the astronomical figure of 30 tons of gold on the bill, his eyes went dark and he almost vomited blood in anger.

Captain America made mistakes, but he, the chief steward of the Avengers, has to pay the price.

Black-Boiled Egg wanted to refuse to pay, but he was afraid that Carl, a guy with terrifying power, would come to collect the debt in person.

And the fifteen super-powered soldiers of Umbrella were waiting outside the headquarters.

I'm not in the mood to think about why so many super-powered people appeared in Umbrella.

Black Salted Egg gritted his teeth and embezzled the funds raised from the hibernation warehouse project, and only then did he gather 30 tons of gold to send away the vampires sent by Umbrella.

in the office.

Nick Fury looked at Steve who was in a trance and said angrily:
“Captain, I know Bucky means a lot to you.

But to be honest, if you really want to save him, you don't necessarily have to use force. You can buy him back with these 30 tons of gold through trading.

After all, that profiteer only cares about money!
But now you’ve made a big scene, not only did you fail to save the person, but you also lost money. I’m really…”

Nick Fury still didn't say his damn words, which was considered as the last respect he gave to Captain America.

Captain America has calmed down now. He has been under too much pressure during this period and made a big mistake in impulse. He regrets it very much.

"I'm sorry, I will find a way to compensate for this money myself."

Captain America still wants to take responsibility for his own actions and pay for the mistakes he made.

But Nick Fury shook his head and said, "That profiteer won't have the patience to wait for you to pay back the money slowly. Just treat this as tuition, I'll pay it for you.

But Captain, before you do anything in the future, please think carefully. You represent not only yourself, but also the Avengers."

Captain America was silent for a while, then said seriously, "I won't give up on saving Bucky. Maybe I should quit the Avengers so that I won't implicate you."

Nick Fury was stunned after hearing this. The captain was really out of his mind. How could a normal person say such irresponsible words?

After thinking for a while, he said tactfully: "The Avengers just paid a sky-high bill for 30 tons of gold for you." After listening to Nick Fury's hint, Captain America finally reacted and said with an embarrassed look:

"I'm sorry, I didn't think it through. I will work hard to make money to pay off this debt."

Nick Fury sighed, "Captain, the Avengers don't pay you a salary. If you want to make money to pay off your debts, it's not as reliable as Umbrella's sudden death."

This is a bit too real. Captain America is an old antique from the last century. How could he know how to do business and make money?

unless
"I can go fight the gangs and bring back the illegal funds that the criminals have made."

Steve tells you the only way he thinks you can make a lot of money.

Nick Fury looked at the captain seriously and frowned, "Captain, you were not like this before. You were always dissatisfied with Stark and his men who robbed the rich and gave to the poor every day."

After Stark Industries went bankrupt, the American economy collapsed, even though Tony was confident that he could rebuild a new energy company that could rival Stark Industries.

But the American people are now unable to get enough food to eat. Even if his Ark Energy is attractive, cheap electricity has no soil for survival.

Therefore, in order to raise funds for the dormant warehouse program.

Stark, Daredevil and other Avengers specifically go after wealthy gangsters or businessmen who make fortunes from disasters.

By robbing the rich to help the poor, funds were raised bit by bit to save more than 10 million people.

Captain America is disgusted by this behavior, but faced with more than 10 million lives, he has to pretend not to see this "illegal" action.

Now that Captain America's mentality has changed, Nick Fury doesn't know whether it is good or bad for a while.

When Captain America, the spiritual leader of America, is no longer pure, is he still himself?

Facing Nick Fury's surprise, Steve said calmly:

"People always change. I've experienced so many things since I woke up. The world is changing so fast. I, an old-fashioned person, have to learn to adapt."

Nick Fury couldn't deny it and changed the subject to talk about something else.

"Captain, there's a campus speech in a week that may require your presence. Columbia University is being reestablished in Washington.

America has just experienced a major disaster, but the education of future generations cannot be neglected.

This speech can restore the confidence of the American people, so I have to trouble you to give a speech. "

Captain America looked depressed. It was another speech. He felt that he had given more speeches in the past few months than those hypocritical politicians.

"Okay, I'll go."

But Captain America has become a spiritual leader in the hearts of many people, so he is the only one who can give such an inspiring speech.

Seeing the captain nod his head helplessly, Nick Fury consoled him, "Don't go on any missions these days. Take a good rest first."

Afterwards, Captain America left the office and went back to rest.

Black-salted Egg picked up the report on the desk again.

This is the report submitted by confidant Coulson.

After the first batch of 17 volunteers were injected with the desperate serum, only agents succeeded in the end.

Heiludan frowned as he read through the report, then wrote his comments on it with a cold expression.

"Change the plan goal and expand the scope of volunteer recruitment. At least 500 desperate warriors are needed."
