Chapter 19 I didn’t expect you to be so poor

The news of Obadiah Stane's death was directly covered up and did not spread in New York.

However, the energy industry decision-making policy for Stark Industries' decision to change careers has been announced.

This news made many people in New York not optimistic.

Stark Industries is the undoubted industry leader in weapons, but Stark is not yet a leader in the energy industry.

Unless Stark Industries comes up with an era of advanced energy, it is impossible for Stark Industries' stock to return to its peak and continue to rise.

However, this news also reassured some people who still held shares.

Although it is difficult to return to the top but switch to the energy industry, according to the connections and connections left by Stark Industries in the past, it is not a problem to gain a foothold in the energy industry.

And Tony Stark did not immediately announce the news about the Ark Reactor because it was not time yet.

His own armor needed further modifications.

And he also has to find a way to make the Ark Reactor really used in the energy industry to prevent it from being exploited by some thoughtful people.

As long as it's done well, it's not difficult for Stark Industries' stock to return to its peak or even rise higher.

After Obadiah Stane, the biggest trouble at present, is solved, he still has a lot to do.

But there was no doubt that he was no longer in such a hurry, so after Tony Stark returned to Stark Manor, he took the initiative to contact Harvey Ambelaka.

I want to share my joy with Harvey Ambelaka and chat with him to see if I can get some other information.

"Sir, the other party refused to listen."

But within a moment, Jarvis's words were like a glass of cold water poured on Tony Stark's head.

Tony Stark didn't ignore the other party when he heard it, but simply refused to listen.

Who is he? He is a well-known playboy in New York and a celebrity among New York's upper class. There has never been anyone who dared to refuse to answer his calls since he was a child.

"What a guy, how dare you not answer my call."

It actually made Tony Stark laugh.

"Keep in touch with me."

So Tony Stark continued to call Jarvis to contact him.

Anyway, he can bombard Harvey Ambelaka with information at will without him having to do anything.

It was just that Jarvis had just made a second phone call, so there was no need for Jarvis to report it.

"The number you have dial can not be reached……"

The appearance of this mechanical female voice silenced Tony Stark.

"Does he have no other way to contact you?"

After a pause, Tony Stark asked reluctantly.

"If nothing else happens, Mr. Harvey Ambelaka will probably unplug the landline directly."

Jarvis replied upon hearing this.

Although Tony Stark was helpless, he temporarily gave up contacting Harvey Ambelaka.

As for finding Harvey Ambelaka at his door, that was absolutely impossible.

If he really came to look for him, doesn't that mean that he begged Harvey Ambelaka to talk to him?

Jarvis also knows Tony's character, so in addition to remote communication methods such as mobile phones and landlines.

He didn't suggest that Tony could drive to Harvey Ambelaka's estate and find someone directly.

"Contact Peibo for me. I have something to ask her."

Tony Stark ordered.

Pepper was upstairs watching the news when she heard about the death of Obadiah Stane.

She also knew that Obadiah Stane wanted to deliberately murder Tony Stark, so she didn't have much to say about it.

So Pei Bo quickly received the news and hurried down.

"Pepper, do you know Coulson?"

Tony Stark asked immediately when he saw Pebo coming down.

"I know, I know, but weren't you not interested in knowing before?"

When Peibo heard this name, he was stunned for a moment and then asked.

"I wasn't interested before, but now I am."

"What is the scope of responsibility of the Strategic Homeland Defense Attack and Logistics Support Agency? Did he tell you?"

Tony Stark walked to a chair and lay down, and asked casually.

"When I think about it, it seems like a special force set up by the International Security Council to deal with various bizarre incidents."

Pepper Pepper's memory and mobility are very strong, so she will become Tony's effective secretary.

"Is it a strange incident? Do you have his contact information?"

Tony Stark heard this scope of responsibility, thought for a moment, and asked.

"I don't know if it will be useful, but I do have his contact information."

Pei Bo nodded and said.

"That's just right. Please help me contact Coulson."

"Tell him I want to meet him and have a chat at noon tomorrow."

Tony Stark immediately instructed after hearing this.

"I'll give it a try. I don't know if he's free now."

Although Peibo didn't understand when he heard this, he immediately took out his mobile phone and started to contact him.

"Hello, Miss Pepper Potts."

"I wonder what you want from me?"

Just to the surprise of Tony Stark and Pepper, Coulson picked up immediately.

"Mr. Tony wants to meet you at noon tomorrow and have a chat with you."

Pei Bo also explained his thoughts.

"Okay, then I'll see you tomorrow at noon."

Coulson was investigating the Iron Man who appeared in Afghanistan. Now that he heard that Tony Stark actually wanted to talk to them, he naturally agreed without any hesitation.

Coulson actually wanted to go over and talk to Tony Stark now.

But since Tony Stark specified the time, he would not break this rule and wait until the appointed time to talk.

Tony Stark also went to sleep here, regarding the unidentified unknown creature.

Nothing can be found through relying on him to investigate, but Coulson may be able to know something.

Soon at 12 noon the next day.

Coulson came to Stark Manor on time to visit.

The two met in the lobby on the second floor.

"Hello, Mr. Tony Stark, thank you for agreeing to meet me."

Coulson said politely when he saw Tony Stark.

"I don't know, what exactly does your bureau want to know from me?"

"But before that, you have to answer some questions for me."

"As soon as my problem is solved, then I will tell you what you want to know."

Tony Stark met Coulson, and there was no nonsense after that.

"Okay, you ask first."

Coulson knew that Tony Stark was conceited and arrogant, so he didn't mind.

"Do you know anything about this figure?"

Tony Stark heard this and pressed the button with his right hand, and an image appeared. It was the figure recorded by Jarvis.

"I know who he is, but can you tell me where you took his image?"

Coulson's eyes shrank when he saw the dark shadow in this image that made him, Chief Fury, and Natasha feel helpless.

It's just that this figure is floating in the air and was taken from a flat angle, so it's impossible to determine its position.

“Afghan Gumila.”

Tony Stark paused when he heard this and did not hide it.

If the other party is really a force specializing in investigating strange events, then it will not be difficult to investigate his identity.

It will be exposed sooner or later anyway, and there is no use in hiding it deliberately.

Coulson saw Tony Stark mention Afghanistan again, and immediately thought of Iron Man appearing in Afghanistan.

Unsurprisingly, that Iron Man is Tony Stark himself, since Tony Stark has no intention of hiding it.

"I see, then it's not surprising."

"This creature claims to be from the void, and our bureau doesn't know its true name."

"But in Blue Star, he has an alias named Death, who is active in the secret mercenary world."

So Coulson also told everything he knew.

"In the mercenary world... no wonder Jarvis can't find any information related to him."

Tony Stark pondered for a moment after hearing this word, and understood that Jarvis could not judge the other party's identity immediately.

Because he had heard of mercenaries in the past, but he didn't have anyone he wanted others to help him get rid of, so he had never connected to the legendary black network.

But now that he knew it, Tony Stark immediately ordered Jarvis to connect to the black network.

"Mr. Tony Stark, I didn't mean to hit you."

"Even if your artificial intelligence is connected to the dark web, you can't investigate anything."

"Our bureau once spent a lot of money to meet with the God of Death."

"The same goes for the judgment of the existence of the God of Death."

"The appearance is unknown, the strength is unknown, and the origin is unknown. The only thing we know is that he should be a male and is extremely dangerous."

Coulson politely reminded him after hearing that Tony Stark had investigated Death.

"Yes, sir, all I have been able to investigate is some superficial rumors."

"Not as much as this Coulson knows."

Jarvis's voice also sounded at this time, but he still released what he investigated.

Because Jarvis knew that since Tony Stark cared, he just wanted to see it.

Some records about Death appeared in front of Tony Stark in the form of fonts.

"Colson, you said you could pay a high price to meet him?"

"Why did you want to meet him in the first place, and what was the price you mentioned?"

Tony Stark asked while looking at the deeds and rumors about Death circulating on the dark web.

"The purpose of meeting him cannot be revealed to you yet. I can only tell you after I ask you about the information I want."

"But the price for meeting him is to release a designated task, and the deposit alone costs tens of millions of dollars."

"Including the remuneration after completion, the starting price is at least 20 million US dollars."

Coulson paused after hearing this and then explained.

"What did you say?"

"Twenty million dollars can be a high price?"

"Is your department so poor from far away?"

Tony Stark originally thought that he had paid for something precious that money could not buy, so he succeeded in getting an appointment with the god of death.

Unexpectedly, it was something that could be solved with money. In Tony Stark's view, problems that could be solved with money were not considered a big deal.

"Our department is not poor, it just requires planning and application to mobilize funds..."

When Coulson heard Tony Stark's words, there was a trace of embarrassment on his face and he wanted to explain.

"To put it bluntly, don't you just have to look at the senior management's face before you can mobilize some funds?"

"Twenty million US dollars, you all need to go through detailed planning and application before you can mobilize it."

"Doesn't it prove that your department is very poor?"

When Tony Stark heard this, he directly interrupted Coulson's explanation, looking like he understood.
