In the splendid manor, the banquet is unfolding.
Holding a goblet, the dashing Morgan is constantly lobbying everyone to invest in the upcoming railway bonds.
But there is not much to pay for it,
Seeing this, a sneer appeared in Lu Yan's eyes. The proud nobles could not lower their heads and looked at the "businessman"!
But it doesn't matter. In two months at most, Lu Yan will take their wealth and leave.
By the way, it will turn the whole of London into a mess!
Walking up to Lu Yan, Morgan sighed helplessly: "Maybe they are not interested in our project!"
"These people are too arrogant, but don't worry, you should stand on their heads and speak!"
Looking at Morgan with a smile on his face, Lu Yan said contemptuously,
Looking at Lu Yan, Morgan pursed his lips and said, "Do you really want to do this?"
"If we don't play this way, it will take us a long time to complete the railway construction!"
Looking at Morgan meaningfully, Lu Yan was undoubtedly warning him not to be too merciful.
Hearing what Lu Yan said, Morgan let go of his last grudge.
After all, he was once one of the British nobles, but he didn't have the right to inherit.
They have all been knocked down from the mortal world, so they still have time to deal with others!
As long as the plan succeeds, they will control the greatest wealth in the world.
But the premise is to find a scapegoat!
"Which one do you like? Boss!"
Just as Lu Yan was thinking about how to find a suitable candidate, Morgan turned his attention to the man not far away.
I saw that he was hunched over at the moment, and he was constantly distributing something to the surroundings.
But when faced with the teasing of others, the man could only smile and pick up the things.
At this moment, Lu Yan stepped forward and said, "What do you want to sell?"
"Sir, do you have any thoughts on science? I am using the power of thunder and lightning to try to resurrect humans!"
Looking at Lu Yan excitedly, the man seemed very happy that someone could ask him,
Upon hearing this man's thoughts, Lu Yan's first reaction was: "Use thunder and lightning to resurrect humans?"
"Yes, sir, I believe that thunder and lightning have divine power!"
Looking at Lu Yan with bright eyes, Victor Frankenstein immediately explained,
【Victor Frankenstein! 】
Just after Victor chatted happily with Lu Yan and planned to invite him to the laboratory, Lu Yan smiled and said: "I'm not free today, but I will definitely go next time. This is an investment for you. I hope If your experiment can succeed, this must be a discovery that shocks the world! Trust me, Victor!"
"Sir, do you really want to believe me?"
Looking at Lu Yan in surprise, Victor's face looked as if he had met his confidant.
"Of course, you have to believe in yourself, Victor, the world is full of infinite possibilities!"
Patting Victor on the shoulder, Lu Yan showed great respect.
Taking out a stack of banknotes, nearly five thousand US dollars, Lu Yan handed it to Victor.
You know, in today's era when the average annual income of the entire population is less than 1,700 US dollars, what does 5,000 US dollars mean?
And just as Victor left with a respectful salute, Morgan said with a look of astonishment: "You actually believe him?"
"I don't believe him. How can lightning resurrect people?"
Lu Yan smiled disdainfully, while his face was filled with mockery.
It doesn't look like the "Bole" just now!
Seeing Lu Yan's sudden change of expression, Morgan asked in shock: "Then you will pay him back?"
"A scientist who is passionate about development will definitely not mind me using his name! After all, I have already given him the money, right?"
Turning to look at Morgan, Lu Yan shrugged his shoulders and said,
After listening to Lu Yan's words, Morgan froze on the spot.
Lu Yan was planning to sell Victor directly! Five thousand dollars to buy someone’s “life”!
You were obviously so nice one second ago, so why did you plan to treat people as prey the next second?
But looking at Lu Yan, Morgan suddenly realized that his boss seemed to be "black-hearted" and ruthless!
Sensing Morgan's thoughts, Lu Yan asked, "Do you have any better goals?"
"Feel sorry!"
Looking at Lu Yan awkwardly, Morgan then thought that Victor seemed to be the most suitable candidate.
Is there anyone more suitable than a "scientist" who would rather believe that thunder and lightning can resurrect people?
"In that case, let's go, find a few people, and then spread the news! Let these damn nobles see what it means to be cruel!"
With a smile on his face, Lu Yan was about to say something, but suddenly turned his head and said, "Come out!"
"Sorry, gentlemen, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation!"
She raised her hands in embarrassment, and Elizabeth Bennet in front of her immediately showed a bitter smile.
【pride and Prejudice! 】
She didn't eavesdrop on purpose at all. She just stopped when she heard something strange about the conversation between Lu Yan and Victor.
I plan to see if there really is such a magical thing.
But then, the conversation between Lu Yan and Morgan scared her!
"It's okay, miss, as gentlemen, why do we care about being heard!"
Walking up to Elizabeth, Lu Yan showed a warm smile,
But just when Elizabeth thought she would be fine, Lu Yan raised his hand as fast as lightning and slashed her neck.
When Elizabeth felt her brain dizzy, her whole body went limp.
While supporting Elizabeth, Lu Yan glared at Morgan and said, "What are you waiting for? Come here and help!"
"Oh oh oh!"
After hearing Lu Yan's words, Morgan quickly stepped forward,
When the two of them helped Elizabeth leave, the guard in front of the door smiled and said: "Sir, do you need any help?"
"No need!"
Taking out his wallet, Lu Yan handed out a few US dollar bills and said, "Please open the car door for me!"
"Okay, sir, no problem at all!"
Opening the carriage door, the guard smiled and bowed: "Sir, I wish you a safe journey!"
"grateful!"
Taking off his hat in return, Lu Yan turned around and said, "Morgan, you idiot, you almost exposed us!"
"Sorry, this is my first time doing something like this! Please forgive me!"
Looking at Lu Yan with a pale face, Morgan couldn't help but wipe away the cold sweat.
Don't look at him walking around the nobles and businessmen at the banquet, looking very at ease.
But Morgan is only 20 years old now!
Young people will inevitably appear panicked when encountering such an emergency.
Unlike Lu Yan, even if he is "a thief", he is still very calm.
After all, people with strong hearts don’t care about the difficulties in front of them!
Even if it is the south wall, he is confident that he can punch through it with one punch!
Returning to the temporarily purchased manor, Lu Yan carefully helped the woman inside.
Just when he was about to say something, he suddenly felt something strange, because that woman looked a lot like Elizabeth!
Just as Lu Yan was thinking about this, Stanley led Elizabeth in,
Looking at the two of them dumbfounded, Lu Yan couldn't help but look at the woman on the sofa.
Then he glared and said, "Two Elizabeths?"
"No, who is this woman? I've only been away for a long time, and you found a replacement?"
Looking at Lu Yan in shock, Elizabeth couldn't help but cover her mouth, her face full of astonishment.
Stanley and Quipa also noticed this and looked at each other.
Why did the boss go out and find Elizabeth?
Who did they bring back?
Just when the two of them were gradually running out of ideas, Morgan ran in and said, "I found out, this woman is Elizabeth Bennett! The second daughter of a small landowner, she came to London to visit her uncle."
"Two Elizabeths?"
Looking at Elizabeth on the sofa and the person standing in front of him, Morgan slapped his forehead and said, "Oh God, what the hell did I see!"
