Marvel: The Superman Survival Guide

Chapter 46: Quick Actions

Link gave Wilson Fisk advice not because he thought highly of him or wanted to cooperate, but because he knew that New York was simply unable to contain crime.

Even if you take him down, countless criminals will come to take over the territory he left behind. How much can Daredevil do?

S.H.I.E.L.D. won't get involved in Hell's Kitchen's small matters. Even if Link takes matters into his own hands, how much can he actually accomplish?

Rather than that, it's better to get the other party back on track. That's the best solution Link can think of. There's nothing else he can do. Besides, whether things are chaotic here or not is none of his business.

Wilson Fisk was delighted and asked, "Lin, would you like to join us?"

Link shook his head and said, "I've put all my money into buying shares. I'm not interested in running the business. I just hope New York can be more peaceful."

"How you do it is up to you. This is a long-term undertaking that requires military support, but it doesn't rely entirely on military force."

"Vanessa is a great help to you. I believe you know what to do. Let's look to the future."

……

After dinner, Link and Jessica left, while Fisk and Vanessa returned home, both of them very excited.

"Wilson, I think Lin has been reminding you." Vanessa didn't go to change her clothes, but instead poured two glasses of wine.

Wilson took it, walked to the French windows, and said, "Yes, I can tell, and I understand."

"In order to realize my ideals, I bribed those politicians and police officers, but to them, I was just a pawn that could be discarded at any time."

"But things are different now. You encouraged me to stand up, and Lin's idea is for me to take the initiative, so I can't have any stain on my record."

"Some things can no longer be done. Now that Madam Gao and the others have disappeared, I think there are only two possibilities: they have achieved their goals, or they have been eliminated."

"Now I can start over. First, I'll improve my social standing, and then I'll take it one step at a time. But I still need to keep control of the Hell's Kitchen gang."

"No one else is allowed in here, or it will disrupt my plans."

Vanessa stood beside him, took his arm, and said, "I will help you. I know some promising painters; I'll talk to them."

"Once you have a certain social standing, people will naturally be willing to contribute money to our charitable cause."

"This would also alleviate your charitable burden. I've been thinking about it, and the biggest problem with nursing homes is actually healthcare. We could acquire a hospital in Hell's Kitchen."

Fisk's eyes lit up, and he said, "That's right, with insurance, it won't cost us too much."

"You're such a great help to me. In the future, I'm going to run for district councilor, city councilor, and even mayor."

The next day, Fisk took action, summoning his capable assistant, James Wesley.

"Wesley, I need to revise the plan!" Fiske said.

"Fisk, do you understand the situation now?" Wesley asked curiously.

"There's no need to know. Whatever the situation, we have to face it ourselves." Fisk looked at him and said, "Last night I hosted Lin and his girlfriend, and Lin gave me some good ideas."

"For Hell's Kitchen, we need to replan. You have the designers find two plots of land, the one with the least potential for future appreciation."

"I want to build a nursing home, and at the same time, I want to have people talk to all the elderly people in Hell's Kitchen who are alone, and exchange their property rights and lease contracts for places in the nursing home."

"Once the nursing home is built, they can go and take a look. If they are satisfied, they can then sign a contract."

"We could even introduce them to lawyers, and find a charitable foundation under Lin's name to cooperate with them."

Wesley paused for a moment, then said with delight, "That's a great idea. These people are afraid of sleeping on the streets. If there were a nursing home, they would definitely be willing to go."

"Furthermore, charitable activities are tax-exempt, which has many benefits. Should we establish a charitable foundation?"

“That’s right!” Fisk nodded. “I’m going to establish the Vanessa Charitable Foundation, which Vanessa will be in charge of. She will also hold many charity auctions in the future, and all of these will be connected.”

"In addition, I also want to build affordable apartments and exchange them with the remaining people for their leases, while developing an office building on the edge of Hell's Kitchen. These are all happening simultaneously."

"We don't need to rush. We can do these things slowly with limited funds, plan our finances well, and then use the money earned from the office building to gradually change Hell's Kitchen."

"This is a long-term endeavor, my friend, and I need your full commitment."

“No problem!” Wesley said. “Without their pressure, we don’t need to acquire all the properties. It’s better to do it little by little, and that way we can also clean up those gangs.”

"Let them stay for now," Fisk said. "I don't want them coming into Hell's Kitchen to fight me; they are our bulwark."

……

Fisk got to work; now that he owned United Construction, he had the accounts reconciled and began a new plan based on the available funds.

He himself stepped forward again, held a press conference, and announced the establishment of the "Vanessa Charitable Foundation" to build a nursing home in Hell's Kitchen, targeting the elderly living alone in Hell's Kitchen.

Only after ensuring their survival should we acquire their property rights and lease agreements, thereby ensuring a smooth transition and guaranteeing their survival and livelihood.

At the same time, the first batch of low-rent apartments will be built to ensure the housing problem of people at the bottom of society. However, the new low-rent apartments need to ensure their security and other aspects.

His series of actions instantly brought him considerable prestige, and the most shocked person was Matthew Murdoch.

As Daredevil, he knew Fisk best, which was somewhat unbelievable to him, but he also noticed the disappearance of the Hand and the Society.

These changes caught him off guard. He patrolled Hell's Kitchen more frequently at night and found that the situation was much better than before, which puzzled him greatly. He decided to keep an eye on Fisk first.

However, for half a month, he did not find anything strange. Fisker was very busy every day, constantly attending various parties, while the United Construction Company had already begun to measure and design on the selected land.

The law firm was commissioned to handle the legal affairs of elderly people living alone and to work in conjunction with Link's charitable foundation.
