Chapter 551 Two tool men enter the scene
The American middle class particularly misses the 1960s and 1970s, which was the most comfortable era for their lives. Although they are always shrouded in the atmosphere of the Cold War, it is precisely this atmosphere that allowed them to have this wonderful time.
As Chegwana said: They will build you schools and hospitals and raise your wages, not because of their conscience or because they have become good people, but because we have been here.
Because of fear, the capitalist gentlemen relaxed their shackles and created a wonderful middle class.
However, the 1990s was the real "golden age" of the United States.
To be precise, from March 1991 to March 2001, it was the longest period of economic growth recorded in American history.
The reason is well known.
Standing in front of the glass showcase on the street, Lin Hao was not in a relaxed mood while watching the news on the TV.
It was New Year's Day in 1992, and America's "Golden Age" had just begun. It was originally the era of capitalism at its peak. Now that a habitable planet has been discovered, one can imagine how arrogant the white atmosphere will be.
"What's wrong?" Yang Jian saw Lin Hao stopped for a long time and turned back.
"It's okay, it's just a little more difficult." Lin Hao exhaled a breath and his eyes became firm again.
Since we want to falsify American values, the current hellish difficulty level is actually better.
"The two tool men should also have entered the venue..."
With this in mind, Lin Hao continued to walk to the casino and began his "hard" journey of making money.
At the same time, in another old neighborhood in Manhattan, two men opened their eyes one after another.
Tony Stark from the "Based Universe" walked out of the alley and looked at the nearby street scene with doubts in his eyes.
"New York again? Wasn't it destroyed by alien cannons..." Soon, he discovered the outdoor billboard and confirmed that it was not the previous one from the 1940s.
"Time traveled again?" Tony looked bitter.
His last memory was seeing the real captain Steve Rogers being destroyed by the big golden eyeball in the sky, then losing consciousness under the pressure of the Supreme God, and waking up in the alley behind him.
I looked back and saw that there was another person lying in the alley... no, it was a charred human body with one limb missing.
This body that looked more like a corpse than a human actually had its eyes open, and he screamed when he saw Tony.
"Tony!"
"Steve?" Tony recognized his voice and quickly stepped forward to help up the thin body.
"Wait a minute, you're not my Steve." Seeing the burnt skin on this thin body, Tony reacted: "Are you the Steve who became the Black Skull in 2023?"< br>
Steve, the true captain of his universe, had been blasted to pieces by the big golden eyes. Combined with the charred skin on his thin body, Tony naturally thought of Steve who had turned into a black skeleton.
"Yes." Steve nodded, looked around blankly and asked Tony: "Where is this place?"
"It should be New York." Tony helped Steve up. Seeing that he was naked, he quickly took off his coat and wrapped Steve's body.
At this time, Tony realized that the nano armor on his body was missing, and Jarvis was also missing.
"Your hands and feet...why did you become a small man again?"
"I don't know. My last memory is that I was on a diving spaceship. I saw the other Steve being killed and then passed out."
Steve also had no idea why he was smaller again.
"The hands and feet are alien cannons..."
Seeing Steve's low tone, Tony quickly changed the subject: "We were probably brought here by someone."
Tony's first suspect was Lin Hao. Nothing but familiarity!
"There are electronic billboards on the streets. This seems to be New York in the 1980s and 1990s. Let's go to Stark Tower first. Maybe there is a young me here."
Although Lin Hao didn't know the purpose of sending them here, he had to solve the problems of food and accommodation first.
As he spoke, Tony wrapped the thin Steve in his coat and carried it behind his back. Fortunately, Steve was now a small man and had lost an arm and a leg, otherwise he would not be able to carry the "American-style hip".
Walking along a familiar street to a familiar location, I found no familiar building.
"This..." Looking at a strange building in front of him, Tony realized that this universe might not be a parallel universe.
"There is no Stark Tower here." Steve on his back wrapped Tony's coat around his burned head, revealing a pair of eyes.
"Sir, please don't block the door." The security guard came over. If Tony's clothes weren't cheap, his attitude wouldn't be so good.
"Let's go first, we need to understand the world first." Steve said.
Tony turned and left, and soon found some of the information he wanted at the newsstand.
"There is indeed no Tony Stark in this world."

"How did you confirm it?" Steve wondered.
Tony shook the "Playboy" in his hand and chuckled: "At the age of twenty-two, there is no way I will lack scandals. It is a routine operation to dominate the headlines."
"..." Steve didn't want to speak.
"It seems like this is..." Tony suddenly saw the newsstand owner laying out the new newspapers that had just arrived. The headline on the front page was the bombshell news that "NASA" had discovered a habitable planet.
"Isn't it? When did the Alpha Sagittarius galaxy have a living planet?"
Although Tony did not major in astrophysics, no matter as a scientist or a capitalist, it was impossible to ignore the blockbuster news about a living planet.
What's more, after the main movie universe came into contact with the "Guardians of the Galaxy", he found a way to trade with Star-Lord and obtained the spaceship blueprints and the star map of the Marvel universe.
Tony, who comes from the "base universe", has not forgotten the blow that the Spear Bureau's spaceship dealt to the United States when it took off, which was the direct cause of his decadence.
In order to understand Happy Knot, this Tony tried every means to get the blueprints of the spaceship and the star map.
Therefore, he is very sure that the Centauri galaxy, the closest to the solar system, has absolutely no life planets.
But there is no Tony Stark in this universe, which means that it is probably not a parallel world to the universe we have experienced before.
"Hey, do you want to buy this newspaper?" The newsstand owner awakened Tony from his thoughts.
After Tony came back to his senses, he dug through his pockets for a long time before he remembered that he didn't have the habit of carrying change, so he could only leave in anger.
"Bah, you poor man!" The newsstand owner scolded Tony, who was running away, and stretched out his hand to smooth the newspaper that Tony had just read.
"It seems we have to get some money first." Steve was still being carried behind Tony.
Tony found a bench on the side of the road, sat down and took a deep breath.
Although Steve had become a small man again and was missing an arm and a leg, he still weighed seventy or eighty pounds. Tony, who had been decadent for many years, was bloated. After walking briskly for a while, he really had no strength.
"Yes, I have to get you a wheelchair first."
Tony has no intention of abandoning Steve. Firstly, they came to a strange world inexplicably, and they naturally feel a sense of familiarity and intimacy. Secondly, Tony still vividly remembers the real captain's questioning of "OAA". Steve, who became the Black Skull, also had a sense of identity.
Finally, I found a shop that specializes in recycling luxury goods and sold all my designer clothes. Fortunately, the universe he was in before was in the 1940s, and his clothes were retro.
