Chapter 66 Link's Plan
The hospital is divided into two parts: one half is designed specifically for the wealthy, where you can get the best service if you pay, while the other half is designed for ordinary people, including the elderly in nursing homes.
In this way, the wealthy can use their funds to subsidize some of the poor's medical care, and with medical insurance, hospitals can still make a profit.
Link offered some suggestions, since the American healthcare system is really not commendable; it's incredibly inefficient and extremely expensive, and if you don't have the money, you just have to endure it.
It's unimaginable that you have to wait in line for an appendectomy.
Since poor people don't have much money, they can give novice doctors more opportunities to practice and train a large number of doctors who can perform basic surgeries. That's Link's idea.
After Pepper's visit, the subsequent expansion plan was naturally approved. The overall plan was to create more jobs, but not to significantly increase the number of construction workers, maintaining a stable development pace.
They are all developed on the edge of Hell's Kitchen, which ensures that the rental and sales prices after completion are guaranteed.
Finally, equipment and funds were donated to the local police station to increase police presence and patrol the area around the building, thereby improving security conditions.
We also need to support the development of the red-light district to stabilize the gangs. The red-light district should be developed separately, with one built near the dock, where the prices are low.
The workers need a place for entertainment, so building a red-light district here would be most suitable, while the upscale ones would be built with more money to make them more luxurious for the wealthy.
This aspect was handled by Fisk's assistant, James Wesley, whose abilities were outstanding enough that Fisk relied heavily on his help.
This is why Pepper was happy; she was very satisfied with the investment project that Link introduced.
"No, Pepper, what I need to talk to you about now is Stark," Link said. "Stark's condition is very bad; he might be dying."
"What?" Pepper was completely taken aback. "What happened?"
"You know what's on his chest; it's palladium, which is a radioactive element," Link explained. "Now we need to persuade him, especially regarding the surgery."
"I think the only person who can persuade him now is you!"
"..." Pepper was a little unsure what to say, but when she came to her senses, she immediately said, "I'll go back right away. Where's Tony?"
"He's about to get home, you can come here." After Link finished speaking, the other end of the phone hung up immediately. It seems that Pepper is really anxious now.
……
Stark returned and saw Link. "Hey Link, you're here too. You don't think I have mental problems, do you?"
"Of course there's a problem!" Link said with a smile. "And a big problem at that. Let the chief talk to you first!"
"I'll stay here for a few days; we'll have time to talk."
"Alright!" Stark had no choice but to sit down and listen to Nick Fury introduce Stark's father, Howard Stark, who was one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D., which surprised Stark.
After receiving his father's belongings, Nick Fury took his leave, and Coulson also left, leaving Link in charge.
"Lin, you're not going to imprison me, are you?" Stark asked.
"Of course not, but you'd better take a look at your father's belongings. Also, Pepper is on her way back; she knows about what happened to you." Link said with a smile.
"Oh no!" Stark suddenly felt a headache coming on. "You told her?"
"Yes, you need surgery now to close the hole in your chest. Whether you discover new elements or not, at least you won't die, right?" Link said. "You're not married to Pepper yet, and you should have a child together."
"A little Stark, maybe a daughter."
Stark wanted to complain, but Link's words silenced him; the mention of having a daughter stirred something within him.
"Daughter!" Stark took the things and turned to go to the basement. Link took the wine and went down as well, bringing it to Stark before staying behind to watch.
An old-fashioned film reel is playing!
Both the Stark father and son are intelligent men. Tony Stark understood the clues left by Howard Stark. "Lin, what do you think it could be?"
"According to your father, the technology at the time couldn't achieve it. I estimate it's a new element, within that model," Link said directly. "If you can achieve it, then it might solve your problem."
"Correct." Tony Stark stood up. "I'm going out now."
"I think you should wait for Pepper. She should be back soon. You two need to talk," Link said. "I'll go get your things now. You can make a call first."
"Or Pepper could take over; she's the CEO now."
"My God!" Stark slapped his forehead.
"Tony..." Pepper's voice came from that moment. She rushed into the basement in her high heels. Link greeted her and left.
He drove off in a S.H.I.E.L.D. vehicle to pick up the model for Stark.
Link arrived at Stark Industries headquarters, where the largest part used to be the weapons department, but now that it was closed, it seemed much quieter.
There will definitely be renovations to be done later, but nothing has been done yet. Link went straight to Pepper Potts' office; she's the CEO now.
Many things in the office had been tidied up, but it was clear that the work wasn't finished yet. Link looked at the Stark Industries model.
Take out a miniature camera, point it at the model and start taking pictures, capturing all the details.
Only then were they disassembled and carried down piece by piece.
Link came here with his own purpose: to find the new element hidden on the model. He wasn't sure if it was useful, but it was a good thing, and Link naturally wanted to keep it a secret.
After assembling the model, he drove away and returned to Stark's home.
Link didn't know how he talked to Pepper, nor did he intend to get involved; in fact, he never intended to persuade Tony Stark.
It was all just a cover-up. Stark wouldn't listen to any advice, and even using psychology wouldn't work. Link knew this very well.
He came over and then informed Pepper about Stark, his purpose being to have Pepper stall Stark while he helped retrieve the model.
Link knew Stark's arrogance all too well; he wasn't worried about others noticing anything, and Stark wouldn't care.
