People are in Marvel, and the system is working as a worker

Chapter 14 Skye (13)



After a period of recovery, Chloe's sallow complexion gradually returned to white, and flesh began to appear on her dry cheeks.

Chloe likes her current life. She has Grandpa Earl, her boss brother, three meals a day, and can go to school... Compared to before, it's like a dream.

Chloe often prayed that if it was a dream, she would never wake up.

In the past, my father used to scold her, saying that she was a useless burden and he wanted to throw her away.Therefore, Chloe's little mind formed a concept: only those who can do things are valuable, and those who are valuable will not be abandoned.

Working gave Chloe peace of mind, but now, if she wanted to work, she had to finish her homework first.

Elementary school students in the United States don't have much homework. There is almost none in the first and second grades. Some are only given in the third grade, mainly mathematics, reading, and some hands-on practice.

The biggest headache before was multiplication and division. Since memorizing "The Multiplication Table", Chloe no longer worries about math.

"Why don't schools teach the multiplication table? It's so easy to use..." Chloe muttered, wanting to bite the end of her pen out of habit, but she held it back.

"Hello, little sister." Suddenly a gentle voice said: "Is the boss here?"

Chloe was startled when she saw a beautiful older sister carrying a black hiking bag. The beautiful sister was very kind and smiling, and Chloe felt relieved.

She timidly called out, "Grandpa Earl!"

Old Earl, who was replenishing goods, poked his head out from behind the shelves and saw a young girl with Asian features, thinking she was a supermarket customer.

Old Earl smiled and asked: "Hello, do you need anything?"

The young girl said: "Hello, I applied based on the recruitment advertisement."

"Applying? Do you have an appointment?"

Old Earl was stunned, Mike had specifically told this matter.Just a week later, no one came to apply for the job, and Old Earl almost forgot.

"No." Skye was a little worried.

Americans are used to arranging daily schedules and doing things on a daily basis, so they don't like unscheduled work meetings.

"Oh." Old Earl didn't think about this, "I'm an employee here, and the boss is upstairs. Wait a moment, I'll go find the boss."

"Okay, excuse me." The girl introduced herself politely, "I'm Skye."

Old Earl smiled and said: "Earl, everyone calls me Old Earl."

When he learned that someone had applied for the job, Mike's eyes lit up, "Oh, someone finally applied for the job, damn it."

Old Earl said: "The workplace is in Hell's Kitchen, and the salary is higher than normal. Most people subconsciously think it is a prank or a scam..."

Mike was doubtful: "Is that so?"

Old Earl said: "It should be so. And according to your requirements, most of the people who meet the requirements are middle-aged people who need to support their families and dare not change jobs casually. Therefore, to find such talents, it is best to go through headhunting websites."

Mike stared: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?!"

Old Earl: "You didn't even ask."

The two went downstairs.

Seeing Skye, two thoughts came to Mike's mind -

First thought: "Beautiful, what a pity."

The girl in front of him fits Mike's aesthetic perfectly.As the saying goes, men and women can work together without getting tired... But the girl is too young, in her early 20s, and does not look like a manager who meets the needs.

You can't just recruit someone just because they're beautiful. After all, the annual salary is $18.

Interesting souls are one in a million, beautiful girls are worth two thousand a night.

18 is expensive!

Second thought: "Isn't this Shockwave Girl?!"

Skye, an Inhuman, real name Daisy Johnson, future outstanding employee of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Is he an undercover agent sent by SHIELD?"

Mike thought to himself, but felt that it was impossible. Skye was recruited by Coulson after the Women's Federation's New York war...

"Hello, Mr. Tang, my name is Skye, and I'm applying for the position of manager." Skye tried to look confident.

Mike thought for a while and decided to refuse: "Sorry, this position requires managers with more than five years of work experience..."

Skye wore make-up that looked mature. She looked 25 or 21 years old, but her actual age was only [-]. How could she have more than five years of work experience.

"Mr. Tang! I have carefully read your requirements for this position, and I am also aware that I am not qualified enough. I am not applying for this job impulsively or overestimating my abilities. I have made sufficient preparations. Mr. Tang, please give me a chance to show your qualifications." Opportunity." Skye was well prepared, took out the laptop from his backpack and said, "It won't take up too much of your time."

Idle is idle, and there is no money to listen, not to mention that the other party is a beautiful woman. Mike pretended to hesitate and said: "Okay, 5 minutes, if you can sleep... convince me, I can give you a job, let's get started. .”

"Thank you, thank you." Skye was a little excited, "Don't worry, you will never be disappointed."

2 minute has passed...

5 minute has passed...

10 minutes……

"So... for this job, you wrote a whole set of special software?" Mike couldn't help but widen his eyes. With this ability, wouldn't it be good to go to Microsoft?

Mike asked: "Did it take a long time?"

If someone successfully applied for this job before her, wouldn't it be a wasted effort?

Skye replied: "You can find ready-made codes online for some modules, and you can use them with a little modification. The workload is not as big as expected."

It took some time. In this time, I was able to break through SHIELD's RSA encryption system again. Fortunately, I hacked the recruitment website and other people couldn't see Mike's recruitment advertisement at all - this is the truth that no one applied!

The unemployment rate in the United States is high. The annual salary of 18 is enough for a lot of people to think their heads off. What does it matter if the workplace is in Hell's Kitchen!

"That's awesome!" Mike had to admit, "Okay, this job belongs to you temporarily, with a three-month trial period. During the trial period, the salary is 80.00%, and you can choose a single apartment as a free dormitory. Of course, you can also don't want."

Skye said: "Just in time, the lease of my house is up. It's good to change places. Thank you, boss."

Mike: "Just call me Mike. By the way, do you need help moving?"

Skye waved her hands quickly: "No, no."

Mike said: "You're welcome, really."

Skye pointed to the hiking bag on the ground and the laptop on the table, and said: "This is all my belongings."

"Uh... well."

After a simple onboarding procedure, Mike suggested: "How about having hot pot tonight as a welcome to Skye?"

Old Earl raised his hands in agreement: "I agree."

Chloe said nothing, her eyes betraying her thoughts.

Skye: "Would it be too much trouble for everyone?"

Mike: "No. We often eat hot pot, just add extra bowls and chopsticks."

Old Earl smiled and gave a thumbs up, "Chinese hotpot is this... super good!"

Chloe plucked up the courage and said, "Yes, it's great."

Mike asked: "By the way, what do you want to eat and what can't you eat?"

Skye: "It's all fine, I don't choose."

Mike: "Okay."

The soup base is old soup and the dipping sauces are ready-made. You just need to add some ingredients.

Mike said: "I'm going to the supermarket to buy some ingredients. Old Earl and Chloe, you two take Skye to the apartment and help clean it up."

Old Earl: "No problem."

Skye: "No, no, no, everyone is gone, what about the supermarket?"

Mike hung the closing sign on the door, "The problem is solved, it's a happy decision."

in the elevator.

"The supermarket door is unlocked. Is there any problem?" Skye was worried. Security in Hell's Kitchen is notoriously poor.

"No problem." Old Earl was sure.

Skye didn't know where Old Earl got his mysterious confidence, and he was still doubtful.

Skye has a natural talent for being a secret agent, which may be why she can always find loopholes in seemingly seamless firewalls.

Through chatting, Skye learned that old Earl was originally a homeless man, and Mike gave him a stable life.Chloe's parents died and she was kidnapped by gang members. Mike rescued her.

The conversation basically revolved around Mike.

As she learned more and more, Skye became more and more curious about Mike.

How did a top law student from Princeton University end up opening a small supermarket in Hell's Kitchen?

How to save Chloe from a vicious gang?

You are young and your supermarket business is bleak, so why do you own so many properties?

Is it a rich second generation who doesn’t want to inherit the family business?

When Mike came back from shopping, the three of them were already waiting in the supermarket.

Mike asked: "So fast?"

Skye replied: "Just some dust, just wipe it off."

Mike said: "I hired a housekeeping company to do the cleaning work before. It's up to you whether you want to continue hiring this company, find another one, or hire two full-time cleaners."

Skye: "Yes, let me help chop the vegetables."

At this moment, Skye suddenly felt at ease, and a warm current spread throughout her body.

so warm...

She grew up in an orphanage and traveled to various foster homes. Isn't it this simple and warm feeling that she longs for?
