21.How to do business

"If I had known in advance that there were bastards like Scarecrow among your friends, maybe I would have thought more about it." Pamela put her hands flat on the ground and said without raising her head: "Hello, Professor Klein, Have you scared many children to tears recently?"

As she stood up and gradually raised her arms, a new vine-like plant broke out of the ground and wrapped around the indoor pillar.

"In fact, if you were my student, you would never graduate in this life." Klein retorted, "In comparison, everything Dr. Wood has done to you can be considered a good deed."

He sat at the table and carefully adjusted some air-tight devices.

This is one of Black Mask's chemical factories, or it used to be.Now, it will be transformed into a new laboratory for two chemists.

"Is there any conflict between them?" Harley looked left and right curiously, then turned around and asked, "The atmosphere is quite tense."

"It's okay, we are just enemies in the same industry." Karl shrugged and replied. "And fear gas is not very friendly to plant health."

"I refuse to be called a peer and apprentice with this green-skinned woman," the Scarecrow said. "A person like her who relies on mutant powers to cheat does not deserve to be called a chemist. She doesn't even have a PhD."

"In fact, mentor." Carl replied helplessly, "Do you know if Ivy made public the venoms, spores, etc. that she produced with different effects, how many universities would rush to give her a doctorate certificate?"

After all, there are limits to being a human being, and special abilities often allow you to do things that are simply unimaginable.

But maybe it's because of this that pure ordinary people like Batman, who have not undergone any mutations, are more precious.

"You know, it sounds even more stupid for me to spend countless tutoring fees and exam fees to get a doctorate in psychology." Harley shook her twin ponytails.

"Don't ask me, I haven't graduated from college yet and I still owe Bruce Wayne a loan," Carl replied.

In the ranks of superheroes or criminals, you don't have more than a doctorate, and you don't even dare to say that you have read books when you go out to introduce yourself.

In fact, he hasn't been to school for a long time.

"By the way, professor, can you take the time to help me write a graduation thesis?" He seemed to suddenly remember something and asked, "I don't want to delay my graduation."

"..." Scarecrow didn't want to answer the question at all.

"So we are here today to see Black Mask's factory being converted into a new laboratory?" Harley asked, "And now that Scarecrow is here as a researcher, who will manage Black Mask's original subordinates?"

"You don't really think that the solitary Scarecrow can manage his subordinates, do you?" Carl asked: "He will just pull them into the conference room together, then send fear gas one by one, and then observe their reactions with interest. .”

In fact, the Scarecrow did exactly that, but on the bright side, after a trip of fear without fear of disaster, the chances of you needing to worry about their betrayal or disobedience are much smaller.

"Really, thank you so much, thank you all for your support and love for me. Thank you to my parents, thank you..." Harley suddenly became serious, as if she had suddenly stood on the podium.

"what are you doing?"

"Give me your inaugural speech." Harley asked strangely, "Didn't you just want me to be the leader of those subordinates?"

"Of course, it's okay if it's Xiaohong. Xiaohong is mine. After rounding off, I'm still the winner." She added with a smile.Pamela, however, seemed to remain lost in her encrypted conversation with her new plant companion and did not react.

"Of course not. Of course, it's not me or Poison Ivy. There's no one in our group who understands this." He patted Harley's little head and asked her to act a little normal.

The sound of footsteps came at the right time, the door opened, and a man with slender cheeks and glasses walked in.

"But fortunately, we have a top-notch foreign aid student who has a master's degree in business administration from Harvard and is a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford." Karl introduced to everyone. "He was generous enough to help us."

"It's just Alberto, Alberto Falconi, what do you want from me?" He pushed up his glasses and asked.

............

In the reception room of the factory nearby, Carl and Alberto sat opposite each other.

Neither Poison Ivy nor Scarecrow came with them. They were not interested in these things. Harley was not here either. She was pestering Poison Ivy. Of course, it was possible that she was being pestered by Poison Ivy because she was too annoying.

"I don't remember that we exchanged contact information." Alberto asked first, "How did you find me."

"You have to ask Black Mask about this. I'm quite surprised that he has so many people's information and contact information." Carl replied. "If he can still speak now."

In the legacy of Black Mask, there is a lot of interesting information, such as the contact information of some famous mercenary killers, and the living habits of some gang bosses and their cronies, which saved Carl a lot of trouble in finding people.

He is worthy of being the number one Batman enemy in Gotham in the future. He is able to have such an intelligence network and relationship network at a stage when his reputation is not yet apparent.

It's a pity that the common problem of those gang bosses is that their personal force value is not very high, so they are easy to be easily eliminated when their power is not strong.

"Of course, this is not the focus of our conversation today." Carl waved his hand and said, "Just today, Daniel, the president of Gotham City Bank announced his resignation. I met him at that banquet. He is your people."

"Did you do it?"

"If you include Batman in this, yes," he replied. "Look, the madman in tights has shot another gangster in the lifeline. Next, you will have nowhere to put your money."

"If you want to urge me to take action, there is no need." Alberto said, "Unless it is an emergency, my father will not interrupt the family's vacation."

Apparently, Falconi's obese nephew was still spending his happy honeymoon in ignorance and had not returned to Gotham.

"No, no, no, you just need to decide this matter yourself." Karl stopped him and said.

"Choose the right time, the right place, and the right person. If you have such qualifications, you will have corresponding achievements."

"And I called you here today because I want you to use your other specialty, the specialty of being a good son to your father."

"As you can see, this is a chemical factory. It originally belonged to a man called the Black Mask." Karl stood up and continued, "Like your father, he likes to do some business that cannot be seen in the light. These The factory was just a front for his business.”

"Now, he generously left these industries to me, but unfortunately, I am an upright citizen, and I prefer legal industries. For example, this factory was originally used as a cosmetics factory."

"So, what do you want me to do?"

"It's simple, I want you to be their owner."
