Marvel Administrative Officer

Chapter 48 Assemble
In the office of Long Island Manor.

Jack didn't know that the X-Men routinely pulled their hips, and he was sitting on the sofa bargaining with Rhodes.

Since he almost sold the vertical lift technology at a low price that day, Jack has consulted many experts and has gained an objective understanding of the importance of the vertical lift technology.

Vertical take-off and landing technology has always been one of the main research and development directions of the world's air forces.

Fighters that can take off and land vertically can take off and land without taxiing, have low requirements on runway conditions, can follow ground troops to deploy and attack on frontiers and attack ships, respond quickly to front support, and are very flexible in use.

In fact, the F35B Joint Strike Fighter that has been installed by the American Army is a vertical take-off and landing fighter, but its load capacity is a problem, and the drawings provided by Jack completely solved the load capacity problem.

To put it simply, the overall characteristics of the X-Men's Blackbird fighters are that those faster than me do not have my vertical takeoff and landing, those that can take off and land vertically do not have my load capacity, and those that can carry heavy loads do not have my speed.

So the Pentagon is bound to win this technology.

Jack struggled with his brain and spared a lot of circles, but Rhodes was completely unmoved because he only focused on technology.

"Jack, the Pentagon has shown the greatest sincerity, 100 billion US dollars, in exchange for your drawings."

Rhode raised the price again.

"It's not about the money."

Although already moved, Jack clenched his teeth and did not let go.

"You can continue asking prices, what do you need?" Rhodes said sincerely.

Before Jack could speak, he went on,

"In fact, I have learned that your career is in politics. Although you are a shareholder of Stark Industries, you obviously do not have the ability to manufacture fighters independently. Therefore, as your friend, I suggest that you sell the technology. Not only will you gain $100 billion and the friendship of General Hardaway."

Being poked by Rhodes' weak point, Jack was short of breath.

Jack also knows that although he has complete technology, he does not have the ability to transform technology into reality. He really doesn't understand how the Blackbird fighter of X Academy was built. Could it be that Hank the Beast used a hammer Was it knocked out?

As long as Jack owns a production line, he can sell the complete machine to the military, and maybe a few years later, a new arms company will appear on the mainland of the United States.

But Jack didn't, even if he wanted to start forming now, it was impossible.

After all, the current production price of advanced fighter jets will exceed 1.5 million US dollars, and Jack's current wealth cannot afford such a cost.

But Jack still didn't let go, he prevaricated,
"Rod, I only have half of the drawings."

"Well, my friend, you and I are not idiots, no one will burn such an important blueprint, so we are talking about all the technology now."

Jack touched his head in embarrassment, and began to think about what he wanted from the Pentagon. He was ready to hand over the vertical lift technology.

At this moment, Cheney walked into the office with a hasty look, which gave Jack some bad premonition.

Cheney glanced at Rhodes, nodded slightly, and then moved closer to Jack's ear.

"Professor and Jean are here, and I'll arrange them in the lounge."

Jack's heart skipped a beat. From this point of view, the X-Men really failed.

Affirming this, Jack felt at ease instead. It is too tiring to hang on to one heart every day, and the current situation is fine.

"Rhode, I have something urgent to deal with, can you move our conversation back a little bit?"

Rhodes nodded. Jack's series of complexion changes did not escape his eyes. He did not suspect that Jack was deliberately evading. In order to show his sincerity, Rhodes specifically added,
"If you need help, the general and I are willing to stand behind you."

Jack nodded gratefully to Rhodes, and hurriedly followed Cheney to the lounge.

in the lounge.

Jack pushed the door open, and saw the professor leaning on the wheelchair with his eyes closed, while Qin was rubbing her hands nervously.

"What happened?"

Jack asked first.

"Eric and the others were all captured, but their lives should not be in danger for the time being, but Stryker obviously made preparations early in the morning."

Qin explained.

Jack walked to the other side of the sofa and sat down, then asked,

"What exactly happened, how were Magneto and others captured?"

"Sorry, the professor and I were outside the dam at the time, so we have no way of knowing what happened inside." Qin said with some shame.

Jack was out of breath for a while, and he took so many powerful mutants to deal with a Stryker, but failed all of them without getting any information, Jack felt very tired.

But Jack knew that their interests were already bound together, and now was not the time to be discouraged.

"Professor, what do you need from me?"

"I need more people to save my compatriots. Eric's fall made me understand that I have always been too superstitious about mutant abilities. After losing our abilities, we are actually very fragile, so I need a team of real elites. "

Jack gritted his teeth. Although there were ten thousand words of MMP in his heart, he promised,

"I'll gather a group of good players before tomorrow morning."

After saying this, Jack has secretly made up his mind that as long as this matter is resolved satisfactorily, he will never cooperate with the X-Men again in his life. This team is simply stretched to the extreme.

After running around day and night, the professor and Jean were exhausted. Jack arranged for Cheney to take them to rest, and then he returned to the office, where Rhodes was still waiting for him.

Walking into the office, Jack found that Rhodes had already poured two glasses of wine. It seemed that the other party was sure that he would agree to hand over the technology.

Jack stepped forward, picked up his wine glass and said in a deep voice, "I agree to hand over the vertical lifting technology to the military. But I need 200 billion, and I have one condition!"

"Appreciate further details."

Rhodes didn't bother with the price. You must know that the development of F35B cost 400 billion, and there are obvious hidden dangers in the end. Now you can get mature technology for only 200 billion. This is a good deal!

"I need a true veteran of hundreds of battles, the best battlefield commander."

"Can you tell me the reason?" Rhodes asked tentatively

"Secret."

Rhodes stood up, thought a little in his heart, and said after making up his mind,

"I will arrange for someone to come and help you. He will not ask about your plan, and he will keep his mouth shut afterwards, but you must also ensure that you will not shoot him afterwards."

Jack was taken aback for a moment, because he was afraid that he would silence himself and give himself a vaccination?
Seeing Jack's expression, Rhodes knew that Jack had misunderstood, and he explained again, "I'm not afraid of what you will do to him, but I'm afraid that you will die at his hands if you don't do it cleanly."

These Jacks are more interested, what kind of person can afford such a high evaluation.

"I need him here before tomorrow morning."

"No problem, I'll arrange it immediately." Rhodes replied easily.

"I wish us a happy cooperation."

Jack and Rhodes clinked glasses, and they reached a preliminary agreement.

After Rhodes left, Jack contacted Yin Yang and Barney who were in a state of silence, and now he must gather every bit of strength in his hands to ensure that he can complete his work in one battle.

　Ask for favorites, ask for recommendations.
