In The DC World With Marvel Chat Group Chapter 1330: Interstellar stage (37)

The noon light in New York shines through the gauze curtains that float in the wind, and shines into the slightly narrow but not crowded living room. This is an ordinary house in Queens, with two floors and a small yard, compared to the rich area It can't be called a villa, but it can barely touch the threshold of a middle-class residence.

The light of the car's turn signal flickered, and Ben Parker, who was sitting in the driver's seat, already had a trace of white hair on his sideburns. This middle-aged man was not tall or strong, and he always liked to wear plaid shirts and jackets. Otherwise, it is work clothes of various colors, and a small tool bag is always hung on the waist, so that emergency repairs can be carried out immediately in case of any emergency.

In New York, the work of an electrical engineer is not considered rich and expensive, but it is still decent, and the income is good enough to support a family. Although it is occasionally stretched, most residents living in this community are so.

They are not poor, definitely not so poor that they can't afford to eat, because they caught the tail of the golden age of America when they were young. A blue-collar worker is enough to support a family, and Ben Parker is like this.

When he was young, he left home early to learn electrical engineering skills. Before he was 20, he was already working independently. With a pretty good salary, he got married smoothly. The parents of both parties received a small sum each. Money, as the start-up capital of the newlyweds, bought a house and a car, and also bought some financial products as long-term income.

However, such days only lasted for a short period of time. Since the US economy began to decline, the ability to harvest the world has become weaker and weaker. After the golden age, blue-collar workers no longer have such superior conditions, at least the income It used to be more, but the price has become more expensive.

Most of the residents living in this community are like this. Although their income is not bad, they also have to pay high property taxes and insurance.

Ben Parker took his hands off the steering wheel, opened the door and got out of the car. He glanced back at the Cadillac with a satisfied expression on his face.

But this kind of satisfaction is not the pride of others. Although Peter Parker's achievements are also very gratifying to him, this car was actually bought by him with his own salary, not by Peter.

Ben Parker has always wanted to own a Cadillac, but for so many years, the economic situation of the Parker family has left them with little spare power to buy a new car. Even the Ford they bought later was bought from the second-hand market Yes, as long as you can run, you can't pursue the brand and configuration.

Standing in front of the car, Ben Parker stared blankly at the Cadillac logo. This scene fell into the eyes of Aunt Mei in front of the window on the second floor. Check the balcony railing.

Ben Parker was startled awake. He looked up at Aunt May, waved his hand, touched the key on his waist, and walked quickly to the door.

But at this moment, Aunt May stopped him, mouthed to him, and waved her hand again. Ben Parker immediately understood that it must be Peter's girlfriend.

At this time, the sunlight outside the window just shone on the armrest of Parker's sofa. Gwen put one arm on the armrest, looked at Peter with a sad face and said, "Now, not only do you have to make an alibi, I also have to make an alibi, I shouldn't have promised her softly!"

Peter, who was sitting next to her and unpacking the biscuit box, smiled gloatingly and said, "What is the scarier thing than Director George knowing that his daughter's boyfriend is Spider-Man? He knows that his daughter is also Spider-Man!" "

Gwen stretched out his hand and pushed him, looked left and right, made sure there was no one there, and then said angrily: "Don't laugh, you have experience, help me find a way, my dad will find out sooner or later !”

Peter shook his head and said: "I realized this earlier than you, so I have given up. There are more than 200 Spider-Man incidents in New York. You should hurry up and prepare some blood pressure lowering medicine." Let's go."

Wearing a floral dress, Gwen collapsed to the side of the armrest, supported his head with his fingers, and said weakly: "My dad will go crazy, he will really go crazy, more than 200 Spider-Mans are really Enough for him!"

Suddenly, Gwen seemed to remember something, turned to look at Peter and said, "Aren't you going to buy a new house for your uncle and aunt? Have you chosen the location?"

"It's not that I want to buy it, it's that my uncle plans to change houses." Peter took out a biscuit from the biscuit box of other universe specialties and gave it to Gwen, and then said: "Since he changed his job, his salary has increased a lot , the treatment has also improved, first I bought a new car, and now I plan to change to a more spacious house."

"Uncle Ben has a new job?" Gwen said a little surprised: "Didn't he work in the New York Power Management Authority before? I remember it as a municipal facility emergency repair?"

"Yes, but this job is actually tiring and dangerous, and it doesn't make money." Peter curled his lips and said, "If it weren't for the winter and summer subsidies, he wouldn't want to do it. You know, he used to But the electrical engineer of a big company, if the company hadn't closed down during the economic crisis, he wouldn't have lost his job in such a hurry, and then he would have been employed in a hurry to support me and Aunt Mei."

Peter broke a piece of biscuit and put it in his mouth, recalled for a while and said: "Probably when I was still in elementary school, Uncle Ben stayed at home for a while. I can find a job with the best of both worlds, let’s go through the difficult times first.”

"But when the difficult period passed, he was getting older. Although he had rich experience, he didn't have a senior professional title. Many private companies were unwilling to hire such an employee, so he could only find a job in the power bureau to repair it. people's work."

"Then why is he thinking about changing jobs again?" Gwen asked.

"It's not that he wants to change it." Peter sighed and said, "Since the establishment of many stations on air transportation lines, they have always been interrupted because they are too advanced and do not match New York's slightly outdated circuit network. Electricity problem."

"Although the application of new energy has been put on the agenda, it is a pity that it is not so simple to replace all the power and network cables in such a large city, so we can only make do with it now."

"But if it's broken, it can't just be broken like this. Someone has to rush to repair it. Stark has installed alarm bells in the New York Power Management Bureau, but the bell doesn't stop ringing 24 hours a day, everywhere. Something is wrong, and the same is true of the company where my uncle works."

"There are more than 60 electrical engineers and apprentices in their team, and it is still not enough to dispatch all the members. The problem is that every time they go for emergency repairs, they have repaired half of the faults, and they can understand it and it will be over soon. Yes, but the other half of the failure involves more advanced technology, no one can understand it, so we can only wait for the Stark Group to send technicians over."

"Wait!" Gwen interrupted Peter, she said: "Then just ask Stark to send technicians? Isn't the anti-monopoly law already open to companies like Stark?" Is it?"

Peter shook his head and said, "Haven't we all worked in the Stark Group? Don't you know? Those so-called technicians in the Stark Group are actually researchers. You ask them to draw circuit diagrams and explain clearly. The principle is simple, but it is difficult for you to let them do it yourself, they will electrocute themselves to death."

"Right now, the biggest problem with power failures in New York is that the old masters who have experience can't understand the new technology, and the young researchers who know how the new technology works can't repair it at all. It took hours of torture to fix a small problem.”

Gwen sighed, nodded and said, "If that's the case, it's really troublesome. You haven't said what it has to do with Uncle Ben's new job?"

"I was about to talk." Just as Peter was about to speak, Aunt Mei walked over with a smile, brought two cups of tea for the two of them, clapped her hands lightly and said, "Tea should be served with biscuits." , this is what the British said."

Peter picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. Aunt May patted him on the shoulder lightly and gave him a wink, telling him not to be so rude in front of his girlfriend.

Peter wiped his mouth and said, "My uncle can't stand this situation anymore. He thinks it's a waste of time, so he randomly grabs a researcher and asks him to explain to himself what is happening at the shuttle platform. What the **** is technology."

"Actually, there is nothing complicated. The circuit technology used by the shuttle platform has not changed fundamentally. It is not much different from the previous principle. It is only because the conductors and lines of some key technologies use new materials that they will present a different Features, the old electrician can understand what's going on after a few times."

"Every time Uncle Ben meets young Stark Group technicians, he grabs them to give him lectures~IndoMTL.com~ As a result, he became the most efficient emergency repairman in their power management bureau, even Become an expert in shuttle platform maintenance.”

"With the passage of time, Uncle Ben has become more and more proficient, and has reached the point where other personnel in the power management bureau have to call him to ask him about any operational difficulties."

"With this kind of technology, it is difficult not to get promoted. Now my uncle is already a senior technical consultant in the Air Transportation Technology Power Service Department of the New York City Power Authority. It’s decent and makes money, and it’s not tiring, just need to help answer technical problems.”

Peter smiled and said: "Now my uncle takes 9 apprentices and runs back and forth between the stations of all the air transportation lines in New York, in order to quickly accumulate technical experience for these apprentices, so that they can become teachers. , The Power Management Bureau is urging this matter every day, and I can’t wait to do it myself, they are insanely short of people!"

At first, Gwen just asked out of the mind of caring about Peter's elders, but the more she listened to her, the more fascinated she became. When she heard this, she couldn't help but asked with some doubts: "Is there a shortage of people in the Power Management Bureau?"

"Of course, it's more than just the Power Authority." Ben Parker's voice sounded from the door. This is the eighth time that the old Pence of the traffic management bureau has complained to me about the shortage of platform security personnel, and asked me if there are any relatives or friends who can recommend me.”

Gwen slowly frowned, and said as if thinking of something: "Since there is a shortage of people everywhere, why are there still parades in the Bronx because of unemployment?"
