Wen Ming laughed and said, "Anyway, as long as you touch those meteorites, your hair will fall out. As soon as I look at your hair, I can tell whether you have destroyed those meteorites or not."
Lex paused for a moment, then realized that this would become a weakness in his future interactions with Wen Ming.
But isn't this also an interesting starting point for discussing this topic?
Thinking of this, Lex's smile widened: "Now that you mention it, I can actually use this to identify whether the things around me have those strange meteorites."
Lina, standing to the side, watched the handsome man in front of her with a smile the whole time.
The other person's appearance, demeanor, and manner of speaking were completely beyond her expectations.
In her mind, even if the hotel owner wasn't a wise old man in his sixties or seventies, he was a mature middle-aged man in his forties or fifties.
It turned out that the other party was a young man several years older than him.
Moreover, this young man easily controlled his arrogant older brother.
It should be noted that Lex, who considers himself intelligent, rarely shows this side of himself in front of others.
Now, the way she looks at Lex is almost overflowing with adoration.
It has to be said, this man is incredibly charming.
Just as Lina was about to start a conversation with Wen Ming, Tony, who had been waiting impatiently, urged again, "Wen Ming, it's time to make lunch."
Wen Ming still looked lazy, which made Tony even more anxious, because he felt he had lost face in front of Lina.
He had previously sworn that he could get Wen Ming to cook for everyone, but now that bastard Wen Ming is refusing to cooperate. Tony thinks that now that Wen Ming is making money, he has lost his original intentions.
We must give him a proper reminder.
Just then, Lina clasped her hands together, placed them over her heart, and looked at Wen Ming expectantly: "I've heard that you cook very well. Would I have the honor of tasting your cooking today?"
"Alright, newbie perks must be arranged."
Looking into the other person's bright, watery eyes, Wen Ming stood up and said, "The taste might be different from what you usually eat."
"I often eat Eastern food."
Lena smiled and stuck out her pink tongue, making Tony's eyes shine even brighter.
No, I have to win her over.
"Actually, my favorite food is also Eastern cuisine. Do you like noodles? Did you know there's a type of noodle that's especially sticky..."
Wen Ming smiled as he watched Tony begin to go into heat, while he went behind the open kitchen teppanyaki grill and, while organizing the ingredients in the refrigerator, began to recall information about Lina.
There are many possible scenarios for Lena Luthor's character.
Generally speaking, she is portrayed as Reno Luthor's adopted daughter. In "Supergirl," she is kind-hearted and doesn't seem to turn evil in the end, always helping Supergirl Kara.
Wen Ming couldn't remember the specific details very well; he would have to ask Qing Hou to help him organize them later.
However, Wen Ming remembered very clearly that the brother and sister loved and hated each other, tormented each other back and forth, and would eventually go their separate ways, or even kill each other.
Overall, Lena is a morally ambiguous character. She is still young, and if she is guided in the right direction, she should be able to become a good friend of Clark and Kara.
Of course, that's assuming Lex doesn't cause any trouble.
In his memory, Wen Ming quickly prepared today's lunch—braised chicken rice.
"Wen Ming, weren't we supposed to be making noodles?"
Tony looked at the golden chicken nuggets with brown mushrooms, colorful bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots in front of him, and swallowed hard, feeling a little annoyed.
"When did I say I was going to make noodles?"
Wen Ming placed a bowl of braised chicken pieces in front of Lina, and then served her a bowl of rice: "You can pour the broth over the rice or eat it separately. I didn't put any chili peppers in it, so you can eat it without worry."
"Thank you! It looks delicious."
Lina skillfully picked up a tender piece of chicken with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth. She was immediately captivated by its fresh and juicy texture: "This chicken is so delicious."
Seeing that Wen Ming wasn't going to make noodles for him, Tony had no choice but to scoop a spoonful of broth onto the rice and then put it in his mouth.
The rich aroma of shiitake mushrooms and chicken broth, along with the fragrance of rice, blended together, and Tony fell in love with it after just one bite.
"You can actually cook rice? I thought you could only cook noodles."
Tony's lips curled up in a smile as he quickly popped chicken nuggets, broccoli, and carrots into his mouth. Even though spitting out the bones from the chicken nuggets was a hassle, he couldn't stop eating.
Lex is another one who just can't stop.
Salty and slightly sweet, this is the flavor that the people of the Eagle Country love the most. Even though it's not as strong a flavor as what they usually eat, Lex still fell in love with Wenming's cooking: "Wenming, how can your cooking be so delicious?"
Wen Ming smiled but said nothing.
I can't exactly tell you that these are all buffs, can I?
However, Wen Ming has long since passed the initial painful period, so he takes these things in stride.
Whether he likes to eat it because of the buff or because of his own cooking skills, it doesn't matter to him anymore.
"Wen Ming, why didn't you tell me you made something delicious? I was exhausted last night and so hungry I could have eaten a whole cow."
As a voice approached, Tony, who was engrossed in his meal, looked slightly embarrassed.
Dr. Maya seemed not to see Tony at all, her eyes fixed on Wen Ming: "You have to make sure I'm full every time."
Tony's face turned green instantly.
Even though we've broken up, it feels like Maya, you're flirting with Wen Ming.
However, Tony immediately felt a sense of relief.
Well, now that you've chosen Wen Ming, I can happily go find other cover girls.
Breaking up was never Tony's forte; he always had Pepper handle it.
This time, we skipped it entirely.
Wen Ming has good taste; she's one of the women I've had my eye on.
Even if it's in the past.
I hope you two have a good time in bed.
"Of course, it's an honor."
Wenming scooped a bowl of chicken pieces for Maya and a bowl of rice, while he poured a large spoonful of chicken broth into a large bowl of rice for himself. Then he found a place to sit down and began to eat his lunch.
Seeing Wen Ming sit down, Lina quickly picked up her rice bowl and sat down opposite him: "How old are you? Are you still in school?"
"No, I've already graduated."
Wen Ming picked up a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth. The delicious taste made him squint his eyes.
Have my skills improved?
It tastes better than before.
"Do you usually stay at the hotel? I heard you're going swimming today, can I come with you?"
From the moment Lina sat down, her little mouth never stopped. Tony, who was eating his meal with relish, suddenly found his appetite diminished when he saw Lina's adoring expression.
Fake!
Why do all women look so infatuated with Wen Ming?
Why have I never beaten Wen Ming?
Does this hotel have some kind of charm buff?
"Sorry, I have an appointment this afternoon."
Wen Ming politely declined the other person's request, and then naturally asked, "What about you? Are you still in school? What year is it where you are?"
"Me? I'm in college now, just like Lex. He just graduated, and I'm a freshman. It's 2004 where I'm from."
When Wen Ming heard that Lex had already graduated from college, he showed a strange expression: "How old is your brother? He seems like a high school student to me?"
"He's very smart. He skipped a grade. He's only 20 years old this year."
Lina's answer made Wen Ming realize something.
Yes, when Lex and Clark met, he was already a working adult, but he looked young, so people always mistook him for someone still in school.
Looking back now, with Lex's intelligence, graduating from college at 20 wouldn't have been a problem at all.
So, how old is Lina this year?
Wen Ming looked at Lina, and Lina, being so clever, blurted out, "I'm 18!"
Wen Ming nodded upon hearing this: "18 years old is good, 18 years old is very good."
Lina blinked her blue eyes and gave a strange smile: "I also think 18 is a good age."
……
"Lex, you didn't preserve any part of Jason's body, did you?"
After dinner, Wen Ming invited Luther and his sister to have tea in his office, while Tony sat beside him watching Wen Ming chat with this so-called most dangerous person.
"No, how could I? That's a serial killer!"
Upon hearing Wen Ming's words, Lex immediately and loudly denied them.
Wen Ming nodded: "It's fine if you save it. Anyway, Jason is immortal. As long as you save it, he will keep resurrecting around you until he kills you."
Lex's expression changed instantly, but he concealed it well, asking with feigned surprise, "Is he that terrifying?"
"Of course, he was resurrected three times that night: 911 killed him once, POD 153 killed him once, and John killed him once."
Moreover, he's getting harder to kill each time, and I believe he'll be even more formidable next time he comes.
Oh, by the way, he'll keep killing any target he's marked.
Wen Ming smiled at Lex, who could no longer contain himself: "Will it continue?"
"That's right, it's a fight to the death. As long as he has his eye on someone, no matter where they hide, he will suddenly appear and continue to assassinate them."
You heard right, it's an assassination attempt. He won't fight you openly.
Tony, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh when he heard that Lex was being targeted by such a ruthless killer. "Want some bodyguard service? I recommend John."
I've used it, John's is very good.
Lex, who was usually good at hiding his expression, looked genuinely grim this time. Anyone would be restless if they were constantly stared at by such an unkillable demon. After hesitating for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Could I hire Rebecca?"
"No, Rebecca will no longer be my bodyguard; she will dedicate herself to researching biological agents."
Wen Ming rejected Lex without hesitation, and then said, "I suggest you behave yourself when you come to the Iron Hotel in the future. Don't go to places you shouldn't go, and don't talk to people you shouldn't talk to."
"I've always been very well-behaved and haven't gone anywhere recklessly."
Lex looked aggrieved, but Wen Ming ignored him: "Take out your gold and let's make a trade."
Lex couldn't understand why Wen Ming was so hostile towards him. Didn't everyone say that he was a very nice person?
Is this your way of expressing friendship?
Otherwise, this arms dealer next to you, who's grinning like an idiot, would keep saying good things about you.
Yes, that must be it.
Wen Ming is showing concern for me indirectly.
Otherwise, why would he warn me not to wander off? Wasn't he afraid Jason would kill me?
What saved my life last night wasn't just Rebecca's orders, was it?
Huh? wrong!
Rebecca saved me!
"A capsule-shaped maglev car, a motorcycle, and a house, each for $51."
10 bottles of emergency spray, $200 million.
Three bulletproof suits for a hotel in mainland China, $45.
One capsule-shaped weapon case, $3.
The total is $299 million.
Your world is 2004, the price of gold is $375 per ounce, and you need to pay your boss 247970 grams of gold.
Qinghou quickly showed Lex the calculated price. Lex nodded, tossed out the Capsule of Life, and began taking out gold bars one by one from inside.
One kilogram of gold bar is one piece, and Lex took out a total of 248 pieces.
The glittering gold was piled up into a small mountain.
Wen Ming looked at the small hill in front of him and smiled happily.
This deal netted a profit of $1311 million after paying Ada Wong, John, and Bulma for costs.
This is calculated based on today's gold price of $3318 per ounce, which is equivalent to 122922 grams of gold.
The gold used to buy the medical pods was easily earned back.
Lex will continue to fleece us in the future.
"If you want to buy anything in the future, just go to Charon or Qinghou."
Wen Ming warmly shook Lex's hand: "Are you sure you don't want to buy John's bodyguard services? Marcus and Perkins are also very good, and my personal bodyguards, Qinghou and Ninth Brother, can also earn extra money."
"I don't need it for now." Lex was naturally envious of John, but he looked down on Ninth Brother. In his eyes, Ninth Brother was still a child, how capable could he be?
But Lex really went all out this time, since he didn't use a single penny of his father's money for these powerful products; they were all from his own savings.
They're almost completely drained.
This Wen Ming is poisonous.
Every time I come here, I want to buy something, but the problem is I never buy anything good for myself.
Fortunately, Wen Ming was very generous this time, giving me the medical pod technology for free and open source. As long as I go back and thoroughly promote this technology, I will definitely be able to become the world's richest person in the shortest amount of time.
Hmph, you little arms dealer, you can step aside.
Bruce?
You're definitely not as fast as me. I'm going to become the savior of our universe first!
Lina looked at the items on the store list and was very tempted, but she was still just a college student and didn't have any savings or source of income. Just when she thought she wouldn't get any benefits, Wen Ming suddenly said, "You must lower the price of the medical pod."
To prevent you from embezzling the technology, I've also prepared a copy for Lina. I suggest that you two siblings start this company together.
"If you make money, you and your brother can split it equally. What do you think?"
Lex, who was dreaming of becoming the world's richest man, paused for a moment. He wanted to refuse, but Wen Ming had already signaled Qing Hou to bring a USB drive and hand it to Lina.
"This is for me? Oh my god, how can I thank you?"
Lina never expected that she would also be able to obtain the technology of the medical pod, which made her feel flattered.
“I said, this technology is meant to benefit all of humanity. As a time traveler, you are naturally qualified to acquire this technology.”
Wen Ming looked at Lina gently, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Lex is a troublemaker. With Lina keeping him in check, he'll definitely achieve something unexpected.
I'm such a genius.
Lex's surprise lasted only a second before he laughed and said, "I was already planning to start a company with Lina."
"Little sister, you absolutely mustn't tell Dad when you get back, otherwise he'll definitely keep this technology for himself."
"Don't worry, I'll help my brother advance this cause!"
Lina was beaming with excitement. She looked at Wen Ming, patted her breasts, and exclaimed, "I will definitely not let Boss Wen down!"
"I look forward to your universe eliminating all diseases in the shortest possible time."
Wen Ming smiled and saw the two off, then called over Max: "Max, when you get back this time, buy as many high-tech products as you can."
"Don't worry, boss, I will buy everything on the list."
Max has decided to leave the Elysium universe. The will of the universe has given him three days. After three days, the universe will be completely shut down, and Max will never be able to enter the universe again.
Since it was time to say goodbye, Wen Ming naturally wanted to make the most of what he had. He handed over all the gold bars he had just acquired to Max so that he could go back and buy some high-tech products.
Tony also learned that the Elysium chip was even more powerful than the Metaverse, so he prepared gold and asked Max to help him buy technological products to upgrade his Iron Man armor.
"You must make sure that the technology of the medical pod is disseminated to everyone on the ground."
Wen Ming patted Max on the shoulder: "I'll have Qinghou and T1000 help you."
Since this is a farewell, let Max leave his legend in that universe.
After all, in the original ending, he had already cured everyone of their diseases.
"thank you boss!"
Tears welled up in Max's eyes; at that moment, he was incredibly grateful that he had chosen to join the Metaverse Hotel.
After seeing Max and Qing off, Wen Ming welcomed his wife, Malena.
When Tony saw Malena, he exclaimed in surprise, "Malena, you've become even more beautiful."
"Thank you. I didn't expect this medical pod to be so amazing. I feel like I've become ten years younger."
Malena's face flushed with a blush, a unique charm that captivated Tony.
It's important to know that Malena herself is a 26-year-old young woman.
She was already at an age where she exuded charm, and with her stunning beauty and figure, the medical pod restored all traces of time while preserving her youthful allure.
This stunning beauty, with the looks of a young girl, the charm of a young woman, and the aura of a wife, was so captivating that Tony wished he could just kick Wen Ming away.
However, in Malena's eyes, there was only Wen Ming.
After politely greeting Tony, she happily recounted her experience to Wenming.
Tony was itching with curiosity, but when he heard that it concerned his father's past, he suppressed his flirtatious feelings and listened carefully to Malena's account of her ordeal.
……
"Little sister, what are your feelings for Wen Ming?"
"I feel great."
"Have you ever thought about becoming Mrs. Wen?"
"what?"
After the transaction was completed, Lex took Lina back to his universe with satisfaction. As they walked out of the hotel, Lex couldn't help but voice his thoughts.
Lina looked at her brother in surprise when she heard his suggestion: "What do you mean?"
"A magical hotel that can connect to countless universes, an owner with countless advanced technologies, a man with all kinds of powerful aliens—don't you think such a man deserves to be your husband?"
Lex's voice was filled with endless allure: "Think about it carefully, when you become the mistress of this hotel, you can have endless wealth, and you can even stay young forever!"
Just think about that amazing medical pod, and how many other amazing products Wen Ming has hidden away that he hasn't brought out yet. Aren't you tempted?
Oh, by the way, you got to taste it too; he's a great cook!
I've heard many people in the hotel praise him. He loves to cook for the people around him. Such a good man who is rich, capable, and family-oriented, do you want to push him into the arms of that Dr. Maya?
I saw it myself; during lunch, Dr. Maya was constantly flirting with Wen Ming.
"of course not!"
Young Lina was immediately agitated by Lex's words, her face flushed as she said, "How could an old woman like Maya possibly be worthy of a magical man like Wen Ming!"
"Yes, that's what I think too."
Lex could tell that his sister was really smitten, so he seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "A good man like that must have no shortage of women. I think you should come to the Iron Hotel more often so you can find a way to win Wen Ming over."
"But, but I lied just now, my age..."
Lina's face showed eagerness; she naturally had ideas about conquering such a powerful man.
With his father and brother in the Luther Group, he would never have a chance to rise in the ranks.
If Wen Ming could give me a few more technologies, like the open-source medical pod technology he has today, even if I had to buy them with gold, then I would never have to live under the thumb of Leno and Lex again.
Therefore, I must win him over.
Lina made a decision in secret.
"He'd be even happier if he knew your real age. I understand men best."
Lex patted his sister on the shoulder and gave her a happy smile.
As long as my sister marries Wen Ming, this hotel will be mine!
Thinking of this, Lex happily turned to look at the Iron Hotel building.
However, as he turned around, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in front of him.
"run!"
The moment Lex saw the mask, the hairs on his body stood on end, and without thinking, he turned and ran.
Lina was still a little confused, but when she turned her head and saw the huge man holding a fire axe and wearing a white burlap hood, she screamed and ran away.
She recognized who it was.
Jason, the immortal killer!
Jason saw Lex running toward the intersection, raised his fire axe, and gave chase.
Lex only regrets that Lenor didn't give him a pair of extra legs.
"Jason, I just wanted to be your friend, why did you kill me?"
"Jason, don't kill me! I can give you money, I have lots of money!"
"Jason, do you want a woman? I can give you one!"
……
"Boss, Jason has appeared and brought Lex back to their universe."
Wen Ming was listening to Malena recount the events when the Queen of the Sea's voice came through his earphones. Wen Ming nodded, not paying any attention.
As long as they're not here to kill me, then everything will be fine.
It's unclear how Jason was resurrected this time, or if he'll gain any new abilities.
Let's pray that Lex is alright.
After all, the wool hasn't been completely harvested yet.
"You're saying that Howard wanted to verify your credentials by bringing these 100 submachine guns?"
"Yes, we showed Howard the various tokens that Howard had prepared in the metaverse, and he basically believed in our identities."
However, he said that a submachine gun manufactured by his Stark Industries is still in the experimental stage, and if we really are from the future, we will definitely be able to produce the finished product of this submachine gun.
This is why he requested 100 instead of just one; he wanted to see the fully mass-produced submachine gun, only then could he completely trust us.
After Malena and Qinghou arrived in the Eagle Kingdom, following Howard's instructions from the metaverse, they easily found Howard and Dr. Erskine watching naked dancers perform together in a bar.
The two were very surprised by Malena's origins, especially after the Queen Qing easily revealed the secret that only the two of them knew. They now had no doubt about Malena and the Queen Qing.
However, Howard still wanted to test it again to make sure that Malena and her companion were not spies sent by Hydra.
"Tony, thank you for your help with this."
Wen Ming looked at Tony, who nodded: "No problem. Although that submachine gun is almost obsolete, I've already arranged for Happy to pick up 100 finished products."
After finalizing the matter, Wen Ming looked at Tony, who was still refusing to leave.
"Finished listening?"
"I've heard it."
"You can leave now that you've listened. I need to talk to Malena alone."
"Weren't you going on a date with Flora?" Tony glanced at Malena out of the corner of his eye, his words carrying a hidden meaning.
Wen Ming nodded and said, "I need to talk to Malena about the follow-up matters first."
Tony snorted, "Don't you even care about my progress?"
"alright."
Wen Ming shrugged: "How's Dr. Zola's situation?"
"The final encirclement is complete. We'll prepare to act tonight. I need Qinghou's help to suppress the enemy's consciousness."
Tony waited for a long time before it was finally his turn to make his request. However, he didn't want Wen Ming to look down on him, so he pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's okay if I don't have the Blue Queen. The Jarvis I made is more than enough."
Dr. Zola is cunning and treacherous. Even though Tony and Nick Fury were fully prepared, they were still afraid that Dr. Zola might have other tricks up his sleeve.
Although Tony has created Jarvis, an artificial intelligence, in his own world, when it comes to suppressing data consciousness, the Queen is naturally the strongest.
"I'll give you a better option."
Wen Ming turned to look at Ninth Brother: "Ninth Brother, go with Tony and help him kill an evil doctor named 'Arnim Zola'."
He uploaded his consciousness into a large computer, which was quite outdated, but he had to be careful…
Wen Ming quickly explained Dr. Zola's situation to Ninth Brother, who nodded and said, "Such a consciousness is very simple to destroy; it only takes 3 seconds."
"Are you so powerful?"
Tony looked at the childlike android and felt nothing but annoyance.
So, how come there's someone new around you again?
"This is something I'm good at, but I'm not going to help you."
Ninth Brother gently refused to help Tony, which immediately triggered the proud and arrogant Nini: "Why?"
This little boy looks so gentle and weak, how come he's so rebellious?
How dare you disobey your boss's orders?
Wen Mingtai is too lenient with his employees.
