Jessica immediately turned her head: "Boss, I suddenly remembered that there are a few photos that haven't been developed yet, so I have to go quickly."
Richard squinted at her.
Girl, do you know why you can't get promoted or raised?
This is the reason.
(You don’t even know how to please your boss and want to raise your salary? Dreaming?)

Chapter 65 The Chief Wants to See You
One minute later, Phil Coulson, a good old S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, appeared again in the boss's office of the Daily Planet, standing in front of Richard in a very standard professional stance.
"See you again, Mr. Li." Agent Coulson greeted.
Richard crossed his legs and took a sip of tea slowly: "The SHIELD mission is very heavy recently, right? Are you short of manpower?"
Coulson froze for a moment, remembering the sarcasm he had made when he met Richard the last two times, he couldn't help but subconsciously touched his bald forehead
"That's not what I meant." Richard waved his hand.I really didn't want to mock his hairstyle this time, why did he become so self-conscious?
"I mean, is there only three or five field agents in SHIELD or something?" Richard pointed to him and asked, "Why are you the one who comes here every time?"
Richard really thinks so, Agent Coulson is simply a generation of model workers of S.H.I.E.L.D., a hard-working old scalper under Nick Fury.It was like this in the movies back then. He was on the set of Iron Man, he was on the set of Thor, and he was still on the set of Avengers, until he was killed by Loki in the Avengers 1 movie.
The death of Coulson in the Avengers 1 movie directly stimulated the unity of the Avengers.But you thought it was over?No, no, Comrade Coulson's dedication to the organization has just begun.He never expected that after he died, Director Fury would use alien black technology to drag him back from the gate of hell, and told him that the organization still needs you and you can't die.So the hard-working Agent Coulson started his five-season dedication journey in the American drama "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."
Agent Coulson explained: "Because the director thinks that I have dealt with you before, it is considered an old face, so I was sent to negotiate with you. If you don't like me, I can also apply to the director for a new contact person."
"No, I'm just curious." Richard waved his hand, "If you didn't say it, I would have thought that SHIELD and the director were the three of you."
There is nothing wrong with dealing with Agent Coulson. After all, he is straightforward and easy to talk to. If you must choose an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. to communicate, Richard thinks Coulson is a good choice. At least you will get along well with him. Easy.
It would be a bit annoying if Coulson went back and applied for a replacement with Fury, and Fury turned around and arranged for the Black Widow to come over to play a trick.The black widow is good-looking, but it's too tricky to deal with. Richard hates dealing with people like that.
Coulson said: "Mr. Li, it is very important that we have to ask you something this time."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"Sorry, it's highly confidential, and I have no right to tell you."
Richard squinted at Coulson.
So you came to tell me there was something you needed to talk to me about, but it was too confidential to comment?
So now I have to blindly guess what you plan to talk to me about?
"Agent Coulson, you're not so free that you come here to entertain me, are you?"
"Our chief wants to speak to you personally," Coulson said.
Richard was taken aback for a moment: "Mildan wants to see me?"
"what?"
"Oh, it's nothing." Richard realized that he probably didn't recognize Fury at the moment, and it really didn't affect the effect of calling the director like that in front of others.
"Sorry, no talk." Richard shook his head.
Coulson was stunned unexpectedly, he didn't expect Richard to refuse so straightforwardly: "Don't you want to know what it is?"
"No," Richard said. "I'm a journalist, and I'm a businessman, Agent Coulson. I'm very busy. Pass my apologies to your chief."
Agent Coulson's eyes subconsciously fell on the "Nepal Travel Guide" that Richard had been flipping through before he entered the door.
Richard didn't change his face and heartbeat: "That's official business, I'm going on a business trip."
To be a successful person, you must have many unique skills, for example Erpilian is one of them.
What else could Nick Fury want to see him by name?Either he was arrested to be a coolie, and he was tricked into dealing with some mess under the pretext of world peace, or he was still determined to find an opportunity to study the secret of his power and so on.
No matter which one it was, he felt that he had no reason to be obedient.
"Oh." Coulson said that I would just believe it, and then emphasized, "Although I can't tell you what this is, it is indeed very important. Our director really hopes to be able to"
Before he finished speaking, Richard immediately refused: "If this matter is really that important, then I'm sure you, Mr. Director, will try to find time to find me in person, otherwise it means that the matter is not that important. Okay If there is nothing else, please go back, I have a lot of work to do next."
Coulson had no choice but to leave.
In fact, when he received this mission, he had already vaguely expected such a result.Unlike most superpowers that S.H.I.E.L.D. has dealt with, Richard is not afraid of their S.H.I.E.L.D. name at all, and it is obviously impossible for them to call a bunch of big guys over to tie people up.To put it bluntly, it is hard and soft, very difficult to deal with.
Forget it, don't worry about this problem.Agent Coulson decided to leave it to his boss to think about such a headache. Anyway, he just ran errands. He was only responsible for going back to convey the message to the boss and that was it. Other problems were not his headache.
Richard watched Coulson leave from the window on the top of the building, and groaned in his heart.
If the stewed egg told me to go, I would go, wouldn't that make me lose face?
He declined, partly because of the reason he had just told Coulson, and partly because he simply didn't want to see Nick Fury.After all, who would want to meet the spy king?
Furthermore, if this matter is so important, then Nick Fury should come to see him in person, right?
Richard was right about this.
But what he didn't expect was that Fury would come so efficiently.
When Richard came home from get off work, he just pushed open the door of his bedroom, and saw Director Fury sitting on the sofa in the bedroom with his hips raised high and his black leather boots dangling.
