Plunder the Heavens from American Comics

Less than a minute passed as the two men stared at each other in silence, and in the end Anderson was defeated.

Anderson felt uncomfortable, as if he was suppressed by Jonathan's aura.

"10%! It can't be any lower! If it's any lower, I'll lose money."

Hearing this, Jonathan felt that it was about right. This number was already cheaper than the prices of many institutions.

So Jonathan threw a note to Anderson.

"I hope that soon, I will be able to see my money in this account."

After saying that, Jonathan took Selina and left Anderson's law firm.

After seeing the two evildoers leave, Anderson finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he hurriedly picked up the phone.

"Hello, boss."

"What's up? Calling me so late?"

On the phone, Anderson told him about Jonathan's situation.

Jin Bing on the opposite side found it very interesting after hearing this, because just now his subordinates said to him.

One of his flour mills had just been destroyed.

Five million in payment was also lost.

My goodness, what kind of person is this? Is he provocative?

He robbed his own flour factory and hired his own lawyer to launder the money?

After leaving Anderson Law Firm, Jonathan took Selena home.

Of course, in order to avoid being accidentally discovered by Gwen, Jonathan and Serena did not go through the front door.

But went home through the window.

After all, Gwen's father is the chief of police.

Jonathan didn't dare to fabricate Selina's identity information.

Because even if it was fabricated, with George's ability, he could find out that Selina's identity was fake with just a simple check.

Moreover, he has watched me grow up since I was a child. I wonder if there is such a beautiful and charming lady among the people I know.

How could George not know?

So it won't work to lie to them and tell them that this is a distant relative.

As for how to solve Selina's identity problem, Jonathan actually hasn't figured it out yet.

For safety reasons, Selena actually lives in a different dimension.

To this end, Jonathan spent a lot of money to build a house with wood in the dimensional space.

And furniture was purchased and electricity was connected.

In order to solve the diesel expenses (for power generation) which requires a large sum of money every month.

Jonathan inhumanely asked Athena to pull out a wire from the core of her retreat furnace.

As a result, Athena has completely lost the ability to move and can only sit in the house every day to act as a generator.

In order to get her to agree to be a generator girl, Jonathan shamelessly said that he would definitely trick Iron Man's Ark reactor into coming to him in the future.

Then Athena will be liberated.

Thinking of this, Jonathan looked at the calendar on the bedside table.

Tony Stark was kidnapped in a few days.

At this moment, an idea suddenly popped up in Jonathan's mind.

Chapter 41: Shorting Stark

Weekend at Jonathan's home.

Jonathan sat on the sofa, while Selena lazily rested her head on his thighs and lay sideways on the sofa.

It seems that thanks to the good times in the Marvel world recently, Selina has relaxed a lot.

The TV was broadcasting the news that Tony Stark, the head of Stark Industries, was about to visit the Middle East to sell weapons.

Watching the report on TV, Jonathan thought, isn't this the plot of Iron Man 1?

Looking at Tony Stark, who was full of vigor and vitality on TV, Jonathan suddenly had an idea.

He picked up his phone and called Daredevil Matt Murdock.

"Hello, Lawyer Murdoch. I have a commission and wonder if you are interested?" Jonathan said straight to the point after the call was connected.

As for why he didn't look for Anderson, it was because Jonathan didn't want Kingpin to make money with him.

After all, it’s already pretty good that I didn’t wipe out Jin Bing and his gang.

However, I don’t know if Jin Bing was crazy, he actually let Anderson transfer 450 million to him.

And it is legal income that has been declared and taxed.

This means that even if the IRS comes, Jonathan has enough tax payment certificates to prove that the money is clean.

Although he didn't know what conspiracy Jin Bing was up to, for Jonathan, there was no need to care about such a low-level villain.

"Hello, what is the commission?" Matt asked curiously.

"Help me open an account. I will transfer 450 million cash into it, and then use this cash to borrow money. I will use the maximum leverage to short Stark Industries' stock with all my strength."

When Jonathan finished speaking, Matt on the other end of the phone was stunned.

"Sir? Are you sure you weren't kidding? Stark Industries' stock has been rising steadily."

Today, Stark Industries is at its peak and everyone is scrambling to buy its stocks.

And the stock price is getting higher day by day.

At this point in time, shorting Stark Industries is no different from throwing money into the water.

But obviously, Jonathan, who knew the plot, knew that Stark would be kidnapped by terrorists tomorrow or the day after tomorrow at most.

By then, Stark Industries' stock will definitely plummet.

I am shorting now, which is a good time to make arrangements.

When the stock market drops sharply, we will buy back those stocks at a very low price and return them to the brokerage firm.

The remaining price difference is your net profit.

This business is a sure win.

And as long as you pay all the taxes and the IRS doesn't cause you any trouble, then this money is clean money and you can spend it however you want.

"Mr. Murdoch, you just need to answer me whether you will accept this business or not. If you don't accept it, I will find someone else to do it."

You know, in the United States, lawyers are a magical profession. They can do anything you can think of.

Therefore, Jonathan did not go far away to look for those Wall Street securities firms.

Instead, he directly asked Daredevil for help. After all, he didn't know about the other things, but Matt's character was absolutely guaranteed.

At least you don't have to worry about him stealing your money.

Matt was a little speechless after hearing what Jonathan said.

I thought to myself, it’s hard to persuade that damn ghost with kind words.

But if you have the money and don't make it, you'd be a fool. I can't just turn the business away, and it's not an illegal business.

"Okay, I'll take this order. The commission is 5%. How about it?"

Matt seemed to be worried that Jonathan would lose everything, so he took the initiative to lower the commission.

"Murdoch, if you have some spare money, buy out Stark. Just follow my lead, and you won't go wrong."

Thinking of the tragic life of this saintly hero, Jonathan also wanted to give him some advice.

But obviously, Matt felt that Jonathan's investment plan this time would definitely fail.

So when Matt heard Jonathan asking him to short Stark as well, he just smiled and said nothing, but continued to discuss the details with Jonathan for a while.

He just hung up the phone without paying any attention to Jonathan.

Seeing that he couldn't convince the other party, Jonathan gave up.

But at this time, Selina was a little curious and asked, "Why did Stark's stock plummet?"

It has been quite some time since Selina came to the Marvel world, and she has gradually understood the things happening here.

As for large military-industrial complexes like Stark, Osborn, and Hammer, at least everyone knows what they are like.

So, Selina also knows about companies like Stark Industries that are booming.

Under normal circumstances, a sharp drop in stocks is impossible.

However, out of trust in Jonathan, Selina did not doubt whether Stark would plummet, but was just a little curious about why it would plummet.

Hearing this, Jonathan looked at the glorious Tony Stark on TV and the villain-looking Obadiah Stane behind him.

He pointed at Obaday and said, "See that big bald guy? He is planning a shocking case to kidnap Tony Stark."

In fact, Obaday originally wanted the terrorists to kill Tony Stark directly.

Because Tony has no children, as soon as he dies, Stark Industries will belong to Obaday.

But unfortunately, in the plot, those terrorists were greedy and wanted Tony to help them build the Jericho missile.

In the end, it turned from assassination to kidnapping.

"So, as soon as the news of Tony Stark's kidnapping is broadcast, the stock price of Stark Industries will fall accordingly."

Serena never doubted the truth of what Jonathan said.

Because in the world of darkness, Jonathan has already proved this point very well. It seems that there is nothing he doesn't know about the wolves and the vampires.

Also, Jonathan had recently asked her to study more DC comic books, which also gave her a vague understanding of herself or the world of Underworld.

What kind of existence is it.

But she doesn't care about these.

Now, she only needed to know that her master was Jonathan, and she had to obey his orders in everything.

"Bingo, absolutely right." Jonathan stroked Serena's hair.

The other person seemed to like Jonathan touching her like this. She closed her eyes with enjoyment and pressed her cheek against Jonathan's hand.

But at this moment, the sound of knocking on the window disturbed the two of them.

Jonathan frowned, wondering who would come to him at this time?

Shouldn't Gwen's family have gone to bed by this time?

With doubts, Jonathan came to the window.

As soon as I opened the window, I saw Peter Parker wearing a tattered Spider-Man suit coming in through the window.

"Peter, why are you dressed like this?"

Look at the huge wound on Peter's body and the Spider-Man tights on him.

Jonathan thought that even though he changed Ben Parker's fate, Peter still went down the path of becoming Spider-Man.

"Jonathan, I don't mean to disturb you and Gwen, but I really don't know where else to go. I can't let Uncle Ben and Aunt May see me like this."

After saying that, Peter waved towards Selina who had just sat up on the sofa, and just when he was about to call out the name Gwen, he stopped.

"She's not Gwen?" Peter turned and looked at Jonathan with a surprised expression.
