After Being Hit By A Car At The Beginning, Iron Man Became An Adopted Brother
Chapter 88: The Hand
"If you really want to die, you have to consider resurrection." Johnny thought to himself: "Resurrection? The easiest way is to sign a contract with the lord of hell after death and let the lord of hell send you back, but the price is to sell your soul. If you die again, you will definitely be punished. Torture by the Hell Lord. But signing a contract is the simplest. With my current soul, the Hell Lord will definitely appreciate it. But this method is not what I like. Although I can choose to sign a contract with a more reputable Hell Lord, but I can’t To sign or not to sign.”
"The resurrection of the Hand seems to require a corpse. If I turn into ashes, I wonder if there is a way for the Hand to be resurrected." Johnny said to himself: "It's better to meet the elders of the Hand first."
Through investigation, Johnny already knew a lot about the Rival Association, so he went straight to the door.
The Hand also has its own industry. Although they secretly control the illegal business in Hell's Kitchen, there are also legal businesses on the surface.
So it's easy to find. There are five leaders in the Hand, each with their own territory and profits.
Johnny informed them in advance that he would visit. The five elders of the Hand have also taken a serious view. They also know the identity of Johnny Stark. He is not only Tony's younger brother, but also a famous magical lawyer and a powerful magician.
Although the Hand possesses some mysterious powers, they are still in awe of the magicians who master the two major white magic schools of Da Luo and Kamar-Taj.
"This man is not only original in strength, but the power behind him cannot be underestimated. He has connections all over the world. I don't know what he wants from us."
"I think it's for Future City. After all, we are the most powerful in Hell's Kitchen, and the other party definitely wants us to cooperate with the Future City plan."
"Do we really want to quit? We've been here for so long."
"As long as the price he gives is right, it's not impossible to withdraw. Anyway, the Hand Association doesn't only have this territory."
The five elders were also discussing.
"People are already downstairs." Through the surveillance, it was known that Johnny had got out of the car and walked in with his bodyguard.
Soon the two parties met in the conference room.
"Nice to meet you." Johnny was still very polite. After all, these five people are almost 500 years old in total, and they are all old-timers.
"We are also very happy to recognize the famous magic lawyer~." The elders were also very polite.
Johnny said: "That's it, I won't talk nonsense. I come here to hope that you can support my future city plan. My plan has been approved by the parliament and will start next. I can agree with you. Legal businesses will stay in Future City, but illegal businesses must leave."
"So what compensation can you give us?"
Johnny smiled and said: "Whether it is the Hand or HYDRA, you can spread for hundreds of years because of cycles, because the development of society is not always smooth. As long as the economy is not good, you can get a lot of cheap money. Manpower, expand your illegal business, grab huge amounts of profits, and the loss of giving up Hell's Kitchen is nothing to you. For secret societies that have existed for hundreds of years, I think you know the law of cycles better than I do. You just need to In an economically backward area, illegal business can be in full swing, so why ask for compensation?"
"Having said that, if you change a place, you need to re-establish the factory, re-train the personnel, re-open the joints, and re-establish transportation channels, which also costs money." An old woman with an old face said, her name is Mrs. Gao, The person in charge who is mainly responsible for illegal business.
Mrs. Gao has had ups and downs in her life and has been defeated by many superheroes, but as Johnny said, as long as the economic cycle is not good, she can find opportunities for development again. So after many ups and downs and rich experience, she built a new illegal factory from scratch every time.
"Mrs. Gao, you bring technology and funds, and it's not too late for the local snakes to welcome you. After all, you are very generous, and everyone in the street has a good reputation. The share you give to the local snakes will allow them to live a decent life, and even participate in elections. , whitewashed into politicians. I don’t think you will encounter any trouble. Your biggest enemy is not local snakes, but the economic cycle. When the economic cycle is good, everyone needs better public security before it causes trouble for your factory. ." It's not like Johnny hasn't investigated, and he has a clear understanding of Mrs. Gao's business.
Jin Bin relied on Mrs. Gao to become bigger and stronger. When she goes to a new place, she will cooperate with the local snakes, and she also knows that a strong dragon will not suppress the local snakes.
"It seems that you have investigated a lot of information, but our economic losses are still there." Mrs. Gao said.
"Okay, how about giving you 100 million US dollars as compensation?"
Another man said: "I don't want money, I want weapons." His name was Murakami "and he was the person in charge of the killer business.
"Weapons are definitely fine, but I hope you can lend me the hand's magic book to read. How about this, isn't this condition too much?" Johnny also made a condition: "I can give you the best weapons."
The five people exchanged glances and couldn't refuse. They could have a place in the future city and continue to do illegal business in another place. But they were still a little confused, because Johnny didn't look upright.
So Alexandra asked: "Then how can we trust you? You are a member of the Avengers training, and the note on the 'Gamma Social' is a hero." She is the leader of the five elders, and has been leading the Hand. Expand territory and perform missions.
"I am indeed a hero. What I am doing now is what a hero should do, demolish slums, build future cities, and provide them with jobs instead of letting them work in your black factories." Johnny said about the economic cycle. There was nothing he could do about this kind of thing. But at least it can replace illegal jobs with legal jobs, which is much more meaningful than defeating a few criminals.
As long as everyone has a job, there will naturally be fewer criminals.
If we only crack down on criminals without developing the economy, then the soil that produces criminals will not disappear, and it is impossible for heroes to work hard to improve public security.
Just like the Hand and HYDRA, they will expand wildly when the economy is bad, and they will keep a low profile when the economy is good.
"You are completely different from those street heroes." Mrs. Gao said.
"If they knew that I was negotiating with you, they would definitely want to kill me. What, do you agree to cooperate?" Johnny asked.
"Okay." In the end, the five people agreed to cooperate. Now that Johnny had compromised, the Hand had also compromised. After all, if there is a war, they may not be Johnny's opponents. After all, Johnny's background is too complicated, and ninja killers alone may not be able to defeat the drone army (Lee's) behind Johnny.
The ninjas of the Hand are a force on the streets, but they have to give in when facing the regular army.
"Then the demolition can begin. I'll give you a budget and hope you can help." Johnny said, "As for the underground holy objects, we can study them together then.
"You even know about sacred objects?" The elder was shocked.
"Yes, I know." Johnny said, "Anyway, I have no ill intentions towards your Hand. We can all cooperate."
"I'll contact Jin Bing and ask him to gather people." Mrs. Gao said.
Jin Bin makes money from Mrs. Gao's business, and they have a cooperative relationship. Although Mrs. Gao is rich, she still needs money and help.
Johnny said: "If you encounter opposition, please contact me, don't use violence, I will use magic to solve it."
Everyone thinks about magic, it must be very dangerous.
After talking, Johnny and Abomination took the first step. They still had a lot of work to do. Demolishing the old city and building a future city is a huge project and requires a lot of work. .
