Chapter 2

And the old gentleman's own company, as well as shares in several other companies.

It is worth mentioning that after knowing this was the Marvel Universe, Karl spent several years organizing his assets.

First, he sold his own company, then sold the majority of his shares in other companies.

Such actions earned him a large sum of cash.

Afterward, Karl invested in several other companies.

Such as Stark Industries, Hammer Industries, Pym Technologies, and Oscorp.

These are the companies of Iron Man, Iron Man's villain, the first Ant-Man, and the first Green Goblin, respectively.

After all, he only knew of these companies, as he vaguely remembered them from watching Marvel in his past life.

Because of this operation, Karl's assets increased more than tenfold in a few years.

Today, he has assets worth tens of billions of dollars.

The letter he threw into the trash can had appeared in his bar at an unknown time.

The signatory was Wilson Grant Fisk.

This name looks confusing.

But he has a nickname: Kingpin.

Karl knows this character.

He is a supervillain, known as the underground emperor of the United States, and seems very formidable.

Perhaps some people have not heard of him.

But this person's opponents are quite famous.

The most famous among them is the good neighbor of Queens, Spider-Man.

There are also Daredevil, The Punisher, and even the X-Men and the Fantastic Four are his enemies.

Because he has many underground businesses, it can be said that he is in an adversarial relationship with many superheroes.

Recently, for some reason, he took a fancy to Karl's bar and wanted to make it his own.

To be honest, Karl is currently just an ordinary person. Although he has practiced combat techniques since he was young.

But if he were to truly fight, he is no match for Kingpin.

However, the other party forcing a sale on a bar he does not want to sell is quite annoying.

Originally, when Karl sold his own company and the shares of other companies, he did not sell the two bars in his possession.

The purpose was naturally that he did not want to sell them, and he could also go there for a drink when he had nothing to do.

And now you come to me with forced buying and selling?

Actually, Karl is not very afraid; he had already found Peter Parker, that is, Spider-Man, at Midtown High School.

It is just that the other party is still an ordinary person and has not yet been bitten by the mutated spider.

Karl has been keeping an eye on Peter Parker's movements, preparing to take the first step and seize the mutated spider.

Although Spider-Man is a hero he is quite fond of, in this situation, he can only say sorry.

Originally, Karl was not in a hurry regarding the matter of the mutated spider.

He just treated it as a backup plan.

But now, a villain like Kingpin has suddenly appeared.

The mutated spider can no longer be counted on.

It seems he still has to rely on his system.

Karl looks up and glances at the clock.

11:55.

Five more minutes, and it will be his check-in time.

At that time, the reward for Karl's twenty-five years of checking in can finally be obtained.

He is very expectant of this reward.

If the system that has been checked in for twenty-five years still cannot provide anything good, then Karl might as well just transfer the bar business.

At worst, he will spend money to hire a supervillain to assassinate Kingpin, or wait until he has the ability to take revenge later.

Karl picks up his wine glass and waits quietly. ===== CHAPTER 4 =====
