The families of the deceased will be able to receive XXXX US dollars from this fund every year, for a period of three years……"

"……Norman Osborn: The research value of the blood clan you don't know……"

"……"

Reports were overwhelming, and unsurprisingly, they were all about the blood clan. In fact, such a big event couldn't be suppressed even if they wanted to. Not to mention other things, the footage of the Battle of Brooklyn alone had already been uploaded to the Internet and spread wildly before the reports came out. Some tabloid newspapers that couldn't catch the first-hand news today simply borrowed pictures spread on the Internet.

The authorities also took the opportunity to heavily promote the evil and danger of the blood clan, saying that the authorities would spare no effort to eliminate these tumors and ensure the safety of the people's lives, blah blah blah.

"We're here." Nick Fury got up and patted Luke on the shoulder, waking him up from the pile of newspapers.

The cabin door of the president's plane belonging to Heberon slowly opened. Luke, Ina, Nick, and others walked down under the protection of bodyguards. There was a special official welcoming team at the airport, two generals, and a colonel, all of whom could be said to be familiar faces.

"Little Luke, your growth rate has exceeded the expectations of us old guys." After the greetings, General Evra hugged Luke's shoulders with a smile on his face and praised him kindly. Nick and his agents followed far behind, with no intention of joining in.

Faced with the overly enthusiastic old general, Luke felt uncomfortable all over. What was going on with the look in his eyes that treated him like his own blood relative? He struggled slightly, but the old general's hands were unexpectedly strong, grabbing him tightly as if he was afraid Luke would run away. Luke couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He really didn't want to get too close to these old guys and act so intimately.

If it were Tony Stark, he would have probably flashed away and said something venomous like, 'Don't touch me, your contact will make me very uncomfortable'.

"Little Luke, we have an old friendship. I know the longevity potion is very popular and the supply is very small, but Fara and I only need two!" Seeing that his old buddy General Fara had stopped the other greeters and held back Ina Sandra, that difficult woman, creating space for him to be alone with Luke, General Evra lowered his voice and said to Luke very quickly, "Four hundred million US dollars! We know the price!"

"According to my agreement with S.H.I.E.L.D., this is Director Fury's business. You should talk to him. He's behind you, do you need me to call him up?" Luke spread his hands.

"No, no, no, I won't talk to that black-hearted guy! He has too many demands, and it's difficult for me to satisfy his appetite." Hearing Nick Fury's name, General Evra's face changed. He didn't even want to look back. He looked at Luke with sincere eyes: "Little Luke, you helped me when Heberon was still weak, our friendship has always been very good, and we have cooperated very happily! Your helicopters are great, Fara and I have always wanted to order more."

"Frankly speaking, General Evra, the number of longevity potions is limited, and the quota is just that much, and you don't seem to be anywhere near the point of needing to use them," Luke understood that General Evra was playing the friendship card and the benefit card, using both at the same time.

"But it's always good to be younger, isn't it? I can already feel my body gradually weakening. I want a healthier, more energetic body." General Evra looked at Luke with burning eyes. "I know some people may need them more than me, but that's how the world is, competition is the mainstream, isn't it? We have a friendship, that's my advantage!"

"Two?" Luke sighed and made a two-finger gesture.

"Two!" General Evra's face lit up and he nodded.

"I will not bear any troubles and consequences caused by this," Luke declared first.

"Of course, if anyone dares to make things difficult for you, tell them to come to me," General Evra guaranteed.

"Just this once, General," Luke said.

"I know." Evra didn't take it seriously. Satisfied, he patted Luke on the shoulder kindly, and whispered in his ear: "I still have two hundred blood clans, all of whom have lived for at least two hundred years, and a few who have lived for five hundred years! They are useless in my hands. If you need them, just give me a price. I'll have them sent to Heberon."

"Thank you very much," Luke said, and returned the favor by giving a discount: "Then those two potions will be 300 million US dollars."

……

Having finally gotten rid of the enthusiastic Generals Evra and the other, Luke and Ina and his party didn't go far when they ran into another group of people at the airport. Norman Osborn, wearing a suit and with slightly graying temples, was also walking from the other side with a group of people. Seeing Luke, Norman paused, turned around, and walked towards Luke.

"What is this old guy doing here? He's not easy to talk to," Ina Sandra frowned when she saw Norman approaching, and said to Luke in a low voice.

"Luke Field? Ms. Sandra, hello." Norman stopped beside Luke, a kind smile on his stern face, and reached out his hand.

Luke reached out and shook Norman's hand, and exchanged greetings with Norman with a smile along with Ina. The two teams gathered together.

"Young and promising, if Harry was half as good as you, I wouldn't worry about Osborn's future." Norman looked at Luke with some emotion: "You established a charitable fund for those who sacrificed in the Battle of Brooklyn. This is a good idea and action. Osborn is willing to donate 200 million US dollars to this fund, without needing to be stationed in any finance, nor needing any subsequent audits."

"Then what do you want?" Ina asked sensitively. She didn't want to believe that a standard businessman like Norman would have no requirements.

"Want what? Ms. Sandra, aren't the people who came here today to participate in the meeting all here to participate in the spoils? Please forgive me for saying it so harshly. Osborn Industries is also here to get a share of the pie, but I have no intention of grabbing business from Heberon. Self-healing potions and longevity potions, this is your territory, I will not enter without your permission.

Your product population is aimed at the official and the top! And I am different, I am aiming at the bottom! Is the people!" Norman obviously has his own business map plan, he looked at Luke with a look of genius: "Forcibly demoting the status of a wise life and making it a legal commodity, this is beyond everyone's expectations. Don't worry about me, the better your products sell, the more famous they are, the more benefits I will get. Today Osborn Industries and I will stand by your side."

After Norman finished speaking hastily, he turned around and went to greet Generals Evra and Fara.

"What does he want to do?" Ina Sandra frowned as she looked at the hurried Norman Osborn.

"He might want to sell similar products. For example, health products containing blood clan factors?" Luke recalled Norman's words.

Once the information that the blood clan is the raw material for longevity potions and self-healing potions is circulated and widely spread, then obviously, any product with blood clan factors will spontaneously be sought after. And Osborn Industries can completely seize this new health market of blood clan factor health products with its company's reputation and technical strength.

Strengthening the body and prolonging life?

As for technology? It's not even the medical field! He doesn't even need mature technology and clinical trials in the early stage! He doesn't even need to really have blood clan factors in it! Just promotion can drive a market of at least tens of billions. The craze may not last long, but Osborn Industries doesn't need it to last long either.

It seems that this is really going to be a capital feast.
